Chapter 91: Dekan Fell Silent After Listening

Chapter 91: Dekan Fell Silent After Listening

The three of them were about to leave the campus.

At Dekan's suggestion, they had come to the dormitory of the Mage College.

Although Dekan was not sure if Theresia was at home, searching for her was the right thing to do.

"Knock, knock."

"Theresia, are you there?"

"Dekan? Just a moment."

Theresia's response came from behind the door.

Soon, accompanied by light footsteps, she walked over and opened the door.

"Huh?"

To Theresia's surprise, there were two other girls standing outside the door.

Even if Cornelia didn't know Theresia, Theresia was very familiar with Cornelia.

Or rather, there were few students in the school who hadn't heard of the Dekan and Cornelia duo.

The only exception was Flora, who rarely came to school and never cared about gossip.

Before Theresia could greet them, she was already hugged by Flora, who had rushed into the room.

"Big sister Theresia!"

Flora shouted happily.

She was obviously very familiar with Theresia.

"Come in quickly."

Although surprised, Theresia quickly invited Dekan and the others inside.

"Dekan? How did you end up with Flora? And hello, Cornelia, nice to meet you for the first time!"

"Hello!"

"Today we met Flora by chance, and the three of us came to ask you about information on Mauleon."

"Yes! We, the Three Idiots Squad, are going to bring back my brother!"

"Wait, wait, you're looking for Mauleon... and what's the deal with the Three Idiots Squad?"

Theresia looked puzzled as she glanced at Flora and then at Dekan.

Suddenly, she understood.

Dekan was pretending again!

Wasn't it enough to mess with Alice last time?

"Flora, you better not treat Dekan as an idiot. He is no different from your brother..."

Theresia said seriously, pressing Flora's shoulder.

She was afraid of Dekan's tricks.

Alice was a princess, and Dekan wouldn't dare to mess around.

But Flora wasn’t; she might be easily deceived by Dekan!

"What? Is Dekan very smart?"

Flora turned her head in shock and looked at Dekan.

She didn't understand why a smart person would need tutoring, and how there could be someone as smart as her brother in the Knight College.

"He... he's studying with me."

Cornelia explained.

Flora, with her mouth open, her red lips trembling slightly, felt like her faith was collapsing.

"The Three Idiots Squad... are disbanded like this..."

Then she sat dumbfounded on the sofa.

She seemed to have fallen into despair.

Dekan shook his head helplessly.

He had never intended to mess with Flora.

Theresia was simply being overly cautious.

"By the way, why do you want to find Mauleon?"

Theresia asked Dekan nervously, staring at him.

"Flora misses her brother, and we want to help her fulfill this small wish and let them have a touching reunion."

"You... are you sure about that?"

From what Theresia knew, although Flora and Mauleon had a good brother-sister relationship, Flora was not overly attached to her brother.

She was quite carefree.

Dekan cleared his throat.

Flora, on the side, quickly regained her composure and said:

"Flora misses her brother, Big sister Theresia, please help me." It was an emotionless delivery.

"You guys..."

Theresia looked at Dekan and Flora with a disdainful expression.

Dekan's expression also seemed a bit awkward.

Flora's on-the-spot acting skills were really too clumsy.

Clearly, during their previous rehearsal, Flora's tearful appearance made Dekan feel that the sibling relationship was too touching.

"I did see him in the capital a few months ago."

Theresia said helplessly; she knew she couldn't hide it from Dekan.

But she couldn't continue.

Mauleon trusted her, which is why he met her.

And when she asked for information about the card maker, Mauleon readily told her.

Out of principle, she shouldn't reveal Mauleon's information to anyone, even her friend Dekan.

"Dekan, are you sure you want to bring Mauleon back and claim the Hanover family's reward?"

"What do you mean by claiming a reward? Helping the Count find his heir is an act of kindness and virtue, isn't it?"

"But..."

"As Mauleon's close friend, I can't just watch him deteriorate like this."

"How did you become his close friend..."

Flora clearly remembered that when Dekan first mentioned his brother, there was a hint of resentment in his eyes.

Dekan: "Don't ruin my plan, Flora!"

Theresia: "But... if Mauleon is really brought back home, he will be severely punished by uncle..."

Dekan frowned at her words.

"How outrageous must his actions be for his father to hold such resentment?"

Even if Mauleon evaded his responsibilities as an heir and wandered the world, it shouldn't warrant such extreme measures.

Could it be that Flora wasn't joking?

If they brought Mauleon back, would the Count really be so excited that he'd want to marry Flora to him?

Theresia remained silent, seemingly unable to express what she wanted to say.

On the other hand, Flora seemed to have fully rebooted from her frozen state.

"He just sold our family's ancestral epic card to the Resurgence Church and bought back a super-strong elf with a severe illness from a major slave trader..."

She nonchalantly shrugged and explained.

The elf was covered in complex poisons and curses that were difficult to purify and dispel. That was the only reason why the originally priceless elf was being sold as a slave.

After hearing Flora's explanation, Dekan nodded with his chin in his hand.

Stealing a family heirloom was indeed despicable.

And trading with the Resurgence Church was a particularly heinous act.

"But he shouldn't be severely punished by his father; after all, he's the eldest son."

Flora shook her head, "Actually, my brother had already bribed some members of the Resurgence Church. Later, he cooperated with them to steal back that epic card."

"Isn't that a great thing he did?"

Empty-handed dealings with the Resurgence Church, that's quite a merit.

"No, no, it's not over."

"There's more?"

Dekan began to feel that something was amiss.

"My brother found a miraculous healer who cured the elf's complicated ailments. Next, he gave the epic card to the elf, making her combat power incredibly terrifying. Then, they went and raided the hometown of the slave trader, then took back the money spent on buying the elf..."

"..."

This time, even Dekan fell silent.

Both robbers and capitalists would shed tears after hearing this.

So, let me get this straight. Without spending a penny, he got an ultra-strong elf, an epic card, and a large sum of money?

And this miraculous healer in the story, why does it feel like a strong sense of déjà vu?

"To the extent that he completely angered the Resurgence Church and some influential figures within the territory, ultimately leading to a series of internal conflicts in the territory."

Flora finished recounting Mauleon's glorious deeds.

The entire living room fell silent.
