Chapter 26. Dekan Send Him a Flower of Hope
Baron Bach's entire eyes became incomparably blood-red, as if they were about to overflow with tears of blood.
"Ah!!!"
He ran towards that small figure like a madman.
And the Dekan doll also started running with its short little legs.
Just as Baron Bach was about to catch it, it pushed open the door of a classroom and slipped inside.
Baron Bach, disregarding everything, followed closely and crashed into that classroom.
Subsequently, like a ferocious tiger charging into a sheep pen, the classroom erupted with tragic screams intertwined with blood and fear.
Hiding in the distance, Cornelia and I peeked our heads out from the corner on the other side of the corridor.
"Are you going to give up on that card?" Cornelia asked.
The one that had just lured Baron Bach into the classroom was one of my summons.
When a summon is defeated and the user is not nearby, it cannot be recalled into a card. The fate of the doll that had just attracted Baron Bach would be to turn back into a card and be destroyed by the frenzied Baron Bach.
"It's fine, the production cost of 【Captain Dekan】 is not high. I can mass-produce them," I explained, shaking the two identical cards I still had in my hand at Cornelia.
【Captain Dekan】
【Category: Summon Card】
【Grade: Blue Precious】
【Tier: 1】
【Attack: 0】
【Health: 100】
【Effect: A summon made in Dekan's Q-version style. It has a strong single-target taunt function and inflicts a "confusion" status on the taunted target. The deeper the target's hatred for Dekan, the longer the taunt lasts.】
【Remark: "Captain Dekan, heading to his doom!"】
It was one of my life-saving cards.
Low cost, good effect.
Sometimes, when the enemy was pushed to the brink, Captain Dekan could even lure the enemy to cause targeted destruction.
My plan was precisely to get Baron Bach healed in the infirmary, drive him mad, and with luck, even get him strengthened a bit, then use Captain Dekan to attract him to blow up rooms.
Once Baron Bach took out the staff in the classroom, I could easily sweep through that classroom!
Exploration progress get, easy peasy!
"So, Cornelia, after Bach flattens a few classrooms, we'll go and push the exploration progress a bit more. That should be about enough for our contribution. If we can get some key information about the boss along the way, we'll go and take care of her. Otherwise, let's not take the risk."
I explained our next plan to Cornelia.
It was class time now, but we were strolling down the corridor as if taking a walk.
I felt a little bored.
I thought Baron Bach was fighting too slowly.
It had been almost ten minutes, and Baron Bach still hadn't cleared that classroom.
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
Cornelia nodded happily.
Whether we were going to fight or play next, she didn't dislike it.
"Now that we have the cooking classroom as a safe house, once we take care of the Dean, this school will be ours to do as we please," I said.
"I almost feel like I don't want to go back to Heavenlit Academy..." Cornelia couldn't help but sigh.
"By the way, Cornelia."
Suddenly, I remembered something and said very seriously, "Actually, in the information Baron Bach told me, there was one thing I was very concerned about."
"What?"
Hearing me say this, Cornelia's expression also became slightly serious.
"In the principal's office... there's a swimming pool!"
"A swimming pool...? You want to go swimming?"
"Of course! No student can refuse a swim in the principal's office. How cool is that?"
"..."
Cornelia fell silent.
But after thinking about it, it seemed she also found it very tempting.
Cornelia: "Count me in."
Me: "Alright!"
...
"By the way, look, isn't that the Dean?"
"Looks like it."
Just as Cornelia and I were chatting and laughing in the corridor, we finally ran into the legendary Dean.
It seemed that the commotion from Baron Bach's ruckus nearby had attracted the Dean.
Of course, with the two of us skipping class so arrogantly, it would be hard for the Dean not to notice us.
We were walking down the corridor as if it were our own home.
The Dean charged towards us without hesitation, preparing to apprehend us.
But he saw that the boy and girl were not flustered at all, nor did they have any intention of running.
We unhurriedly handed a red ticket to the Dean respectively.
"Here, take it, take it."
Cornelia and I couldn't even be bothered to look at the Dean. We stuffed the Demon Passes into his hand and continued chatting.
As we passed by the Dean, I even patted his shoulder.
The Dean: "..."
He had seen arrogant students, but never this arrogant.
But according to the rules, he couldn't attack these two students for the next half hour.
The Dean stood in place for a long time, unable to calm down.
When did it happen?
He was no longer feared by the students?
...
"It seems quiet now."
Cornelia was leaning against the wall, her ear pressed against it, trying to judge the general situation in the classroom not far away.
I nodded and summoned the second Captain Dekan.
I controlled Captain Dekan to trot to the door of that classroom, push it open, and jump and wave its hands inside.
Then Captain Dekan turned and ran, charging straight into another nearby room.
Soon, the entire corridor seemed to erupt with something again.
Baron Bach charged out again, following Captain Dekan into the room.
But this time, I could see that Bach had suffered considerable injuries.
"Ganbatte! Baron Bach, you can't fall yet!"
Watching Baron Bach's figure rush into the classroom from afar, I shouted.
Baron Bach still had some fight left in him.
I could still continue to squeeze out his remaining value.
...
About twenty minutes passed.
"It should be over. It's quiet," Cornelia said again, still in her position leaning against the wall.
It seemed Baron Bach's combat power had dropped quite a bit; he was fighting for longer and longer.
I summoned the last Captain Dekan and ordered it to run to the door of the previous room and dance.
Then it turned again and ran into another classroom.
As expected, even though his body was already tattered, Baron Bach still roared and charged into the classroom after Captain Dekan.
"Baron Bach."
"Your destination is not important at all. As long as you keep moving forward, it's fine. As long as you don't stop, the road will be ahead."
"Bach, I won't stop. As long as you don't stop, I'll be waiting for you ahead. So, don't stop!"
I watched Baron Bach's disappearing figure from afar and murmured as if seeing off an old friend.
...
This time, after charging into the classroom, Baron Bach finally didn't come out for a long, long time.
Instead, a surviving demon student crawled out of the classroom with a broken body.
It seemed Baron Bach had burned out.
He and the teacher of this classroom had fought to a mutual, grievous end.
It was time to start harvesting.
"Cornelia! Time to work!"
"Alright!"
Cornelia took out another spare sledgehammer, and we rushed into that classroom one after the other.
The wails of the surviving demons rose and fell once again...
