Chapter 20: Dekan Wants To Convince People With Virtue

It was actually very simple as to why Baron Bacher was poisoned.

Dekan had secretly placed three [Extremely Poisonous Needle] cards into the demon student’s pocket the moment they entered the cooking class.

Furthermore, the [Extremely Poisonous Needle] cards were the latest improved version.

[Extremely Poisonous Needle 2.4]

[Category: Spell Card]

[Rarity: Blue Uncommon]

[Tier: 2]

[Effect: Create continuous poisoned and bleeding effect. This spell card can be triggered from a distance.]

[Note: Current version 2.4. Modified the bug where poison could be removed by tier 2 purification magic. - developer’s journal.]Ñøv€l--ß1n hosted the premiere release of this chapter.

Dekan guessed what sort of game they would be playing the moment he heard Baron Bacher’s opening phrase - ‘I sincerely invite you all to partake in my banquet.’

He knew that those who failed the game would become Baron Bacher’s banquet meal.

After all, this was ‘his’ banquet.

What would Bacher want to eat?

Naturally, it would be the three little demons before his murderous desire-filled eyes.

As such, as long as Baron Bacher ate the demon student, there was an extremely high probability that the Extremely Poisonous Needle would enter his stomach.

Using the Extremely Poisonous Needle to hunt large magical beasts was a trapping method Dekan frequently used in the Kuran Frontier.

He would first capture a small animal that the magical beasts enjoyed eating.

Then, he would place an Extremely Poisonous Needle inside the body of that small animal.

Then, he would release the small animal at the area where the large magical beasts were.

Once he confirmed that a large magical beast had captured the small animal and ate it, he would secretly summon the Ruined Poet before activating the Extremely Poisonous Needle.

As long as Dekan continued to supply magic power nonstop, the Extremely Poisonous Needle would continue to cause damage to its target.

Most importantly, Dekan had softened the Extremely Poisonous Needle to make it extremely flexible and also added a special layer of corrosion inhibitor to protect it against the stomach’s acidity.

As such, the Extremely Poisonous Needle can be triggered repeatedly inside the stomach of its prey once it’s swallowed.

Through that, the prey could be killed effortlessly.

The only downside to this was that it was a bit difficult to retrieve the magic card. Likely, it would be impossible for Dekan to retrieve the three Extremely Poisonous Needle cards inside Baron bacher’s stomach.

Nevertheless, it was not much of an issue for Dekan. Afterall, it was about time for him to develop the next version of the Extremely Poisonous Needle.

“Cornelia, help me tie him up.”

Dekan ordered.

Cornelia nodded. She placed away her hammer and took out another card Dekan gave her.

[Steel Wire Rope]

[Category: Equipment Card]

[Rarity: White Common]

[Tier: 1]

He finally realized that the summon covered by black mist was the source of the pain.

“Cornelia, don’t do it too hard. Tap his shoulder with your hammer.”

Cornelia raised her sledgehammer.

[Battlehammer of Terror]

[Category: Equipment Card]

[Rarity: Blue Uncommon]

[Tier: 2]

[Attack +200]

[Effect: This weapon causes twice the amount of pain.]

[Remark: “Here’s Cornelia!”]

It was a special battle hammer Dekan made for Cornelia. It perfectly suited her battle style and card set.

For the time being, Dekan was not able to create a battle sword that could withstand Cornelia’s strength.

That was why he created a temporary blunt weapon for her.

Compared to swords, blunt weapons had a stronger resilience to breaking.

The hammer was much larger than a regular hammer. Merely the handle was about as long as the swords Cornelia were using.

As such, Cornelia felt the hammer to be extremely comfortable to swing around.

Earlier, Ruined Poet wasn’t summoned when Baron Bacher was struck by the Battlehammer of Terror. Thus, he only felt twice the amount of pain.

And now, Ruined Poet was summoned.

A single strike from Cornelia’s hammer would bring forth twenty times the pain, something Baron Bacher had never experienced before.

Cornelia seemed to be trying her best in controlling her strength.

Like cracking a walnut, she gently smacked Baron Bacher’’s shoulder.

“Ahhhhhhhhhh!!!!”

A screech of terrifying pain echoed through the classroom.

“How was it?”

Dekan asked.

It seemed like Baron Bacher was unable to speak. He continued to violently twitch on the ground.

Dekan: “Baron Bacher, do you know the feeling of being jolted awake by pain after losing consciousness from pain?”

Baron Bacher: “Ahhh..wuwuwu...”

Dekan: “Cornelia, wait until he regains his consciousness a bit before tapping his right hand, then his left hand and then his left foot.”

Cornelia: “What about his right foot?”

Dekan: “Leave that unharmed for his OCD to kick in.”

Cornelia nodded her head.

She does not suffer from OCD but this baron who paid so much attention to aesthetics was very likely someone who suffered from severe OCD.

Everything in his cooking classroom was arranged so orderly and nearly. Even his necktie’s position was so particularly placed.
