Chapter 105. Mr. Dekan, You Are Under Arrest

Although Dekan could find ways to push the blame completely, for example, by later explaining it as the pilot drunk driving and speeding.

But that would be too cruel to the pilot.

The pilot was actually also affected by 【Three Corpses Berserk】, so he was a victim.

Dekan didn’t screw over ordinary people.

He was just scaring the pilot earlier.

To make the pilot remember the dangers of drunk driving and take it as a warning.

Of course, this teasing of the pilot was also a form of revenge.

A punishment for this pilot's baffling actions that forced Dekan to work overtime.

But that was enough.

If it caused the pilot to lose his job and suffer imprisonment, Dekan couldn't bring himself to do something like that.

So next, a small trouble came to him.

As the “hijackers’ target,” the “passerby who resolved the kidnappers,” and the “ace pilot who took command in a crisis” in this hijacking incident, Dekan would be investigated one way or another.

So Dekan had already asked Lieutenant Captain De’erkan to bring his 【Substitute Doll】 from the passenger cabin back to the cockpit.

He had no intention of returning to the passenger cabin and pretending to be an unsuspecting passenger.

In addition, apart from the man in the formal suit who had been turned into fireworks, the other two hijackers had been captured alive by Dekan.

He needed to safely hand over these two Resurrection Church hostages.

Ah no, prisoners.

After the magic airship landed safely, Dekan summoned 【Ruined Poet】 again, waking up the two unconscious Resurrection Church cultists before knocking them out again.

Only after ensuring they were sleeping soundly and peacefully did Dekan disembark.

Dekan wasn't sure about the level of security in Tristine City.

So it was safer to give the two prisoners a full general anesthesia.

Although the kingdom's gentle interrogators probably wouldn't get anything out of them…

"Sigh, even if I brought Cloix, I can't hide these two away for private interrogation. It's better to cash them in."

Life is not easy, Dekan sighed.

On the bright side, he could get a lot of reward money, so it wasn't for nothing.

Since that was the case, it was better to cooperate with the investigation early to speed up the process of getting the reward money.

As Dekan walked down just now, he had friendly raised his hand to the knights, showing that he had no hostile intent.

However, the knights’ expressions became even more tense, even carrying a trace of horror. From time to time, someone couldn't help but swallow.

They thought this hijacker's calm and composed state was somewhat terrifying.

It seemed as if he had the absolute confidence to wipe them all out with a wave of his hand.

Many knights were prepared to sacrifice themselves.

"Wait, he's not a hijacker."

The lord squinted his eyes to observe Dekan for a moment, then raised his hand, ordering the knights to stand by.

This appearance, characteristics, and strange style of conduct most likely belonged to that magical Card Maker from the Royal Capital, Dekan.

Dekan smiled and nodded, walking with grace and stability to the lord who came to meet him.

Fortunately, he was a reasonable lord.

Without much explanation, he had guessed his identity.

"Are you Student Dekan?"

The lord confirmed again.

Dekan didn't say much, just summoned 【Ruined Poet】.

Instantly, black mist swept across the ground, startling the knights so much their eyelids twitched.

Compared to any identification.

This epic card was better proof of Dekan's identity.

This was Dekan's signature card, and epic cards could not be forcibly taken.

The soul-binding of an orange card could only be removed if the user was willing and paid a certain price.

Even if one hadn't seen Dekan's Shadow World records in person, as long as one had heard of Dekan's deeds, they would know of his trump card 【Ruined Poet】.

This was undoubtedly the best symbol of his identity.

"May I ask what happened on this magic airship? And how are the passengers?"

This lord had no noble airs, his tone was quite sincere as he asked.

"Don't worry, the passengers are all… safe,"

Speaking of this, Dekan paused.

He thought about it carefully and felt that the word "safe" was more rigorous.

It's just that the passengers' condition might not be too good.

"Her Highness Iris is also very safe, but she may have been overly frightened. Please take special care of her."

Dekan understood very well what this lord was most concerned about.

But Dekan also indeed felt that Iris needed to be taken care of.

If Her Highness the Princess threw up a rainbow in front of everyone later, she would definitely cry again.

"Okay, no problem."

The lord let out a sigh of relief.

It seemed something in his heart had finally landed.

He couldn't help but marvel. Although Dekan was still a student, he was, after all, a great figure who was about to become the thirteenth Special-Grade Card Maker, and he possessed outstanding talent.

As an ally, he was truly too reliable.

Viscount Lampard: "By the way, why did you arrive so much earlier than expected?"

Dekan: "After taking out… no, defeating the hijackers, the pilot also suffered unpredictable mental interference. I had no choice but to take over the controls. To prevent any subsequent incidents from threatening Her Highness Iris's safety, I escorted Her Highness Iris to Tristine City at the fastest speed."

"Uh…"

The lord wanted to say something but stopped.

Legally, if such an air disaster occurred and the pilot lost the ability to control the magic airship.

Then if a passenger could safely fly the magic airship, there would be no liability, and they would even be praised.

But.

To arrive in Tristine City so much earlier, isn't your speeding a bit excessive…

So, as the lord, he naturally couldn't turn a blind eye.

He had to arrest Dekan.

But, how to phrase it specifically?

To criticize Dekan, it would seem inhuman.

After all, his reason for speeding was reasonable and logical, and there was the irrefutable keyword "escorting Her Highness Iris."

Not to say anything, with so many knights watching, as the lord, he must be impartial.

After thinking for a moment, the lord coughed lightly and said:

"We will issue a severe criticism and a fine for your speeding after an investigation. However, in view of your heroic actions and accurate judgment under the circumstances, as the lord, I will commend you and express my sincere gratitude, and request a reward for you from His Majesty the King."

Dekan nodded in satisfaction after hearing this.

The lord was a just man.

His words were rigorous and reasonable.

"Sigh, so tired."

Dekan let out a long sigh, intentionally or not.

He took out three hijackers and flew a magic-powered airship all the way.

Dekan felt like he was carrying 19 people in Anton.

What happened to the promised vacation?

The lord immediately understood Dekan's meaning.

"Mr. Dekan, could I trouble you to come with us? We have many things to investigate with you later,"

After tactfully proposing the arrest, the lord's tone changed,

"Of course, considering your security level, we will protect you in the lord's mansion and provide you with the treatment you deserve."

After hearing the lord's words, Dekan once again showed a satisfied expression.

It was the first time he had heard someone say "you're under arrest" so smoothly.

The lord, he’s got a broad perspective.
