There’s Absolutely No Problem With The Magic Cards I Made!

Chapter 123: Dekan Consider Himself A Master Of Hide-and-Seek



The card "Mind Collision" triggers a collision of the mental powers between both parties. The effect was that the party with a stronger Spirit attribute will inflict a mental impact with a strong stun effect on the weaker party. In the collision of minds, the stronger one will cause immense pain to the weaker one.

Dekan originally used this card to defeat the final boss Olive in the Demon Academy. However, this card has strict activation conditions—it only works when the distance between both parties is less than 1 meter. The smaller the distance, the stronger the effect.

At that time, Dekan was using all sorts of tricks to gain enough distance to touch Olive’s forehead before causing a violent collision of Olive's mind with his own. In the end, Olive, with greater Spirit and mental strength, inflicted immense pain on the mentally weaker Dekan. Then, Dekan amplified the pain by 60 times and fed it back to Olive, directly messing up Olive's brain.

Just a bit more… Dekan almost had the chance to replicate a mind collision with a 60x pain feedback to stun Isabel.

Now, the distance between Isabel and Dekan was already very close.

However, all of a sudden, Isabel seemed to be on guard, intentionally keeping a distance of more than one meter from Dekan.

This made the faces of both Dekan and Croix gradually become unpleasant.

"Hehe, it's pathetic. Do you think I can't figure out your intentions?" Isabel sneered, her eyes full of disdain.

"So what? Right now, you still can't do anything to me," Dekan responded coldly.

"From the beginning, you had no chance of winning. Even if I followed your plan, what would it change?" Isabel shook her head, wearing a meaningful smile on her face. In the next moment, she fearlessly stepped into the one-meter radius around Dekan!

Dekan and Croix suddenly became alert. Just as Dekan was preparing to use "Mind Collision," he seemed to realize something was wrong. He tightly held the card in his hand, refraining from using it.

Dekan did not activate "Mind Collision" but instead used another mental spell card, "Mind Disturbance" that caused a brief mental control. The intention was to make Isabel kneel, creating a chance to disengage.

The situation was dire. The best strategy was undoubtedly to find a way to reconcile with Croix first!

Dekan had already guessed from Isabel's reaction that she undoubtedly had a card to counter spells in her hand!

As expected, Isabel played a card, seemingly waiting for Dekan to use a spell card!

[Shadow Silence]

[Category: Spell Card]

[Rarity: Orange Epic]

[Tier: 6]

[Effect: Can be activated when the opponent activates a tier 2 or lower spell card, rendering their spell ineffective. At the same time, the opponent falls into a 6-second silence state, unable to use magic cards. Cooldown time is 1 minute.]

[Note: A masterpiece created by Shadow Cardinal Minos.]

Tier 1 and 2 spell cards were all targeted to death by this card! And once triggered, the subsequent silence would leave the spellcaster in dire straits!

Without hesitation, during the 6 seconds while Dekan was silenced, Isabel viciously swung her dagger and severed Dekan's legs! Instantly, blood splattered, and Dekan fell to the ground, screaming in pain with a pale and agonized face.

During these 6 seconds, even if Dekan could purify the silence, she could still use a regular "Silence" spell card to follow up.

However, Dekan's "Purification" would enter a cooldown period, unable to dispel the new silence. Silenced, Dekan couldn't stir up any waves! Not to mention using any spell cards, he couldn't even summon his core card "Ruined Poet"! In other words, when Dekan dared to use a tier 1 or 2 spell card in front of her, his defeat would be inevitable!

"How does it feel, Dekan? Do you understand what tier suppression means?" Isabel looked mockingly at Dekan.

"Ahhh, ahhh, ahhh, ahhh, ahhh!!" Dekan's wretched screams were music to Isabel's ears. She finally saw the pitiful state of this clownishly overconfident guy. Suddenly, the air around her seemed delightful.

"..."

Delightful? Isabel's nose twitched, instinctively sniffing. Her brows gradually furrowed. Why did it feel a bit off? She realized the air seemed to lack the smell of blood.

She quickly looked at Dekan, who was screaming with all his might. Blood flowed from Dekan's horrifying wounds, staining the icy surface red. Why did it feel like the blood was some kind of prop blood used in a play?!

A ominous feeling surged violently in Isabel's heart. Was the guy lying on the ground... a substitute puppet? This jerk didn't even bring out his real self? To what extent was he willing to hide?!

"No! This is wrong!" Isabel roared, hastily turning her head to look around. At the first opportunity, she activated "Spell Counter" on herself.

[Spell Counter]

[Category: Spell Card]

[Rarity: Purple Rare]

[Tier: 6]

[Passive Effect: Automatically triggered when an enemy uses a tier 3 or lower spell card against the user, rendering it ineffective and doubling its cooldown time. This card can only be activated once every 24 hours.]

[Note: Activation Prohibited!]

The figure lying on the ground should not be a tier 3 summoning "Substitute Puppet." "Substitute Puppets" could only mimic appearances but couldn't use magic cards. Earlier, Dekan had clearly used several magic cards, which was why Isabel had never suspected Dekan to be a "Substitute Puppet."

So, what was this figure on the ground, and where was the real Dekan hiding?

The more she thought about it, the more anxious she became. Dekan being in the open and Dekan lurking in the shadows were two completely different concepts. Isabel wasn't afraid of the Dekan standing in the sunlight, but she couldn't be certain about the Dekan hiding in the shadows.

Despite Isabel's unquestionable advantage, holding life-saving cards and countermeasures in her hand, she knew that once the battle with Dekan reached a turning point, everything could instantly become unsettling. Isabel had no idea where Dekan's true self was and what he was planning.

But she knew the 6 seconds of silence had passed. Dekan now posed a definite threat! It was crucial to find Dekan's true self. Otherwise, significant problems would arise!

Before Isabel could locate Dekan's presence, black mist suddenly erupted from the injured "Dekan" like a fountain before scattering and spreading across the icy surface! The Ruined Poet appeared. At this moment, Croix, as if receiving a signal, forcefully dispelled the "Pain Nullification" on Isabel.

Isabel instantly understood where Dekan was! This rascal hid his true self right from the start and was using a "Substitute Puppet" to fight! To prevent the opponent from realizing that he was using a "Substitute Puppet," he even hollowed out the abdomen of the "Substitute Puppet," transformed his true self into a small creature, and hid inside it!

So, every time the "Substitute Puppet" held a card before, it was actually Dekan's true self triggering it stealthily from inside the "Substitute Puppet's" belly! Now, Dekan had achieved his initial victory conditions. He deceived Isabel into revealing her crucial epic card and was within a meter distance from her. Croix's support was also in place.

"Watch this, meow."

With this voice emanating from the belly of the "Substitute Puppet" lying on the ground, Dekan activated "Mind Collision"!
