Chapter 107. Dekan's Gambler-Style Interrogation Method

“Will you rest for tonight or?”

The lord seemed to have tacitly agreed that Dekan would be staying at the lord's mansion tonight.

After all, Dekan seemed very satisfied with this place.

“If you could trouble yourself to take me there tonight, that would naturally be for the best.”

“After the meal, I will take you there.”

Subsequently, the two began to enjoy their dinner quite leisurely.

As Dekan thought about the Resurrection Church cultists still suffering in prison, the dishes in his mouth became exceptionally delicious.

The pain of villains was indeed the best seasoning.

I really want to move this long table to the front of the cell and let the prisoner watch me eat…

Dekan couldn't help but think.

…

After finishing dinner with the lord and waiting for a short while, the lord arranged the trip to the Tristine City prison.

Subsequently, the lord took Dekan in his exclusive carriage to this massive underground prison.

In the pitch-black underground prison, the faint roars of prisoners from the lower levels echoed from time to time.

Some of the most vicious high-rank prisoners were imprisoned on the lowest level, and ordinary prison guards were simply unable to subdue them.

They could only ensure that the prisoners did not get out of their cages.

After entering the prison, the lord and Dekan proceeded straight down to the lowest level.

On this level, there were only a few faint lights in the corridor, which did not create any ripples when they shone on the walls, as if even one's line of sight was about to be swallowed by the darkness.

Presumably, the ones imprisoned here were the most vicious, evil, and dangerous beings in the prison.

Although these two Resurrection Church cultists were only 5th-rank.

But without a doubt, the members of the Resurrection Church deserved the lowest level of the prison.

After all, each of them could be directly regarded as a death row inmate.

Dekan sized up the environment of the lowest level of the prison.

Unexpectedly, it felt pretty good.

In the future, the Happy Church must also have such a confession room.

When the time comes, let's build it in this style.

“This is it.”

The lord brought Dekan to the door of a spacious, independent cell.

Behind the metal bars covered with magic barriers was one of the two Resurrection Church cultists Dekan had captured in the cockpit.

The other one was locked up in another area far away to prevent the two prisoners from communicating in any way.

“Dekan!”

The moment the prisoner saw Dekan, he began to grit his teeth.

But it was more of apprehension and fear.

Earlier on the magic airship, he had suffered no small amount of torment from Dekan!

This inhuman fellow, no one knew where he would appear, and how he would scheme against people after showing up.

To be honest, the prisoner still couldn't figure out what on earth Dekan had done to take out all three of them church members in one fell swoop.

“Oh my, oh my, don’t be so nervous. I’m here to give you a chance.”

Dekan walked to the iron bars and smiled, looking at the prisoner inside and said.

Without Cornelia, he was not willing to open the cell and interrogate a 5th-rank prisoner up close.

Prisoner: “Hehe, it's common sense for us not to negotiate with terrorists.”

Dekan: “?”

Dekan: “Who are you calling a terrorist?”

Dekan’s eyes widened, seeming a little angry.

He felt offended.

That look made the prisoner’s heart pound, and he immediately dared not make another sound.

“Forget it, forget it, let's make it short. Confess voluntarily and be spared the pain. If I have to interrogate it out of you, it will be a different story.”

Dekan sighed helplessly.

A clear conscience is a sure card, it doesn't matter what a Resurrection Church cultist says.

“You can try and see if you can interrogate the information you want before everything is over. Also, if you privately torture a major criminal, even if someone is protecting you, you will not escape the punishment of the Kingdom Federation!”

The prisoner gritted his teeth and shook his head, saying with full resentment.

Even if Dekan offered better conditions, even if he was willing to let him go.

Once he confessed, what awaited him would not be freedom, but the endless retaliation of the Resurrection Church.

He was very clear about the significance of this mission to the Resurrection Church.

“No, no, no, you can rest assured. After the interrogation, there won't be any scars on you, and Cloix will never let you die.”

Dekan seemed to recall something interesting and laughed strangely twice,

“Also, well, if your operation is tonight, that would be fine. If it’s another two days later… you will be completely broken.”

Dekan looked at the prisoner with seven parts pity and three parts ridicule.

The last one to be stared at by Dekan like this was Baron Bach in the cooking classroom of the Demon Academy.

It’s just that when he was torturing Bachel at that time, Cloix was not around.

This was a great regret for Dekan.

The prisoner’s pupils contracted.

He thought of a terrible thing.

According to intelligence, Dekan had a healer teammate of unknown significance.

Although his healing amount was huge, the healing was accompanied by the side effect of pain, and it would also increase the difficulty of the Shadow World.

At this moment, the prisoner’s brain was racing, and he instantly understood the meaning of this healer’s existence by Dekan’s side!

Dekan, this bastard!

He didn't want a healer at all, but an invincible interrogator!

Cloix’s healing mechanism, combined with Dekan’s pain specialization.

No living creature on earth could withstand the interrogation of the two of them!!

“No, impossible, Cloix won’t be here!”

The prisoner quickly retreated a few steps, until he could retreat no more, and shouted with his back against the wall.

Compared to just now, the sharpness in his words had completely faded, leaving only endless fear.

Dekan grabbed the iron bars, looking at the prisoner as if he was about to stick his head into the cell, grinning inscrutably and whispering:

“Your companion has already confessed, your target is the Ice Snow Princess…”

Hearing this.

The prisoner’s expression finally changed drastically, as if the sky was falling.

His eyes were fixed on Dekan, his body trembling uncontrollably.

“Do you know how we made him talk? He was just as stubborn as you at the beginning.”

“It’s just a pity that he can’t speak for the time being. Cloix is trying to wake him up.”

“So you still have a little chance, you can skip all the pain your companion suffered.”

“Confess now, and I promise to let you suffer no more torture. And, actually, you can also receive preferential treatment in prison, such as a better room, delicious food for every meal, right?”

“Of course. You only have a chance to confess to me now. Once your companion regains consciousness, you will be useless.”

After coldly saying this last sentence, Dekan stopped talking and waited for the prisoner to make a choice.

The prisoner’s teeth chattered, and his eyes gradually became empty.

“I, I confess…”

Without much struggle, the prisoner replied thus.

A satisfied arc formed at the corner of Dekan’s mouth.

There was no Cloix here.

And Dekan had no idea their target was the Ice Snow Princess.

One part deception, two parts guessing.

Getting the prisoner to talk in two easy steps.

Well, of course, if it really didn’t work, he would still have to summon Cloix. Anyway, Cloix could arrive as soon as tomorrow.

As for the conclusion "the target is the Ice Snow Princess," Dekan was purely trying his luck.

After all, Dekan knew from his informant Urola that "the Resurrection Church’s target is related to Tristine Academy."

And apart from having an 8th-rank Special-Grade Card Maker, Tristine Academy didn't really have anything special that was worth the Resurrection Church going to such great lengths.

So the Resurrection Church’s target.

Was either some treasure hidden in the academy, or some evil being sealed there, or it was related to the Ice Snow Princess.

Only these two plotlines were relatively common.

So Dekan gave it a try, to deceive the prisoner.

Anyway, there were two prisoners, he could try once with each.

Judging by the prisoner’s reaction.

He had indeed guessed correctly.
