Dekan Hijacked the Hijackers
The Tuxedo Man was trembling with anger.
He felt like he had become a complete joke.
Even hijackers can get away with hijacking the wrong plane.
It can be said that they have become a disgrace to the industry.
Moreover, he found himself in a situation that would be most perplexing for a kidnapper.
That means it's impossible to determine the location of Dekan's true form.
When making a threat, you must at least ensure that the target of the threat can hear you.
If you have no idea where the person you're threatening is.
That would likely pose a threat to air quality.
This makes him look like a clown in a fit of impotent rage.
"Hahaha..."
The Tuxedo Man covered his face, swept his hair back, and burst into maniacal laughter.
Regardless of whether his actions succeed today.
He'll probably become a legendary, comical villain in the Norton Kingdom, and even throughout the entire Resurrection Church.
Utterly disgraced!
His public image has been ruined by Dekan!!
The thing he fears most, someone who plots Terror attacks, is being mistaken for a comedian.
Dekan's actions almost cost him his job.
The Tuxedo Man stopped his trembling laughter and suppressed the rage that was driving him crazy.
After calming down, he shouted:
"Dekan! You think you can get away with this by hiding?!"
The Tuxedo Man had an extremely cold gaze as he scanned everyone in the cabin.
Now, in his view, everyone could be Dekan in disguise.
Although he had initially considered that Dekan might not even have boarded the plane.
However, a closer analysis reveals that this situation does not stand up to scrutiny.
Summon Card become difficult to execute skillful commands after they have been moved a certain distance from their owner.
A summoned creature like Substitute Doll, which possesses the ability to control expressions and language, and can even provide feedback to the user, requires the summoner to stay at a safe distance.
Therefore, Dekan must still be on that Wind Magic Airship!
As for where Dekan is, he must be in the cabin.
He must have used some kind of disguise to become one of the passengers!
Although the situation had been slightly reversed by Dekan, the Tuxedo Man believed that the advantage was still on his side.
In any case, he has no reason to leave empty-handed today!
It doesn't matter if Dekan refuses to compromise or show up.
The Tuxedo Man couldn't believe that Dekan would stand by and watch him kill innocent people.
And, Dekan's classmates.
"Dekan! I know you're here, so you still have to accept my terms!"
This time, the Tuxedo Man was 1000% certain that Dekan was mixed in with the group of passengers in front of him.
However, none of the passengers made any move to step forward.
"Playing dumb, huh? Fine!"
The Tuxedo Man looked around and shouted:
"I'll give you thirty seconds. If you're willing to come out on your own, then I will forgive you."
At this point, the Tuxedo Man, his expression grim, took out a small dinner knife and gently pressed it against the neck of the passenger closest to him.
"But if you don't come out, I'll kill you every thirty seconds..."
However, before he could finish speaking, a feeling of palpitation came over him, making him stop talking.
That's what he felt just now.
The two companions in the driver's cab were attacked in succession!
A strong sense of unease welled up in the Tuxedo Man.
Shouldn't Dekan be in the passenger cabin?
Had he tricked me again?
Wouldn't that make me look like a clown?
After all that, all that threatening talk that he was absolutely certain of turned out to be nothing?!
And is this bastard a ghost?!
When exactly did he bypass my line of sight and go to the cockpit?
Just as the Tuxedo Man was in a state of panic, unable to come to a conclusion...
"Buzzing."
The airship's broadcast system seemed to be reconnected.
Then an announcement was made over the loudspeaker in the cabin:
"Dear passengers, the hijacker in the cockpit has been taken hostage."
"Please enjoy your pleasant and fulfilling journey."
"Hey you in the cabin, surrender now and we'll spare your life, otherwise we'll take you down with us."
The calm and composed voice stunned the Tuxedo Man.
Everyone at the Havenlit Academy was also very surprised.
That voice... isn't that Dekan?
How did he get to the cockpit and so quickly eliminate the enemy's accomplice?
However, the biggest problem is...
What do you mean you kidnapped the robbers?!
Is this something a student should say?
The Tuxedo Man immediately understood his situation.
The Captain of the Knights cannot kill him because of the Self-Destruct Spell Card.
The Captain of the Knights is uncontrollable because his companions in the cockpit could also cause the ship to crash at any time.
But now that Dekan has taken control of the cockpit, all the Captain of the Knights needs to do is find a way to control him!
The Captain of the Knights also realized what was happening, immediately gripped his sword, and planned a route to bypass the passengers and ambush the Tuxedo Man.
He'd been putting up with this thug for far too long!
However, the Tuxedo Man quickly pulled out the knife that had been placed on the passenger's neck.
It pressed hard against his neck.
He even scratched his neck with so much force that it drew blood.
He looked at the Captain of the Knights with a hint of desperation in his eyes.
"If you dare to move, I'll blow them all up!"
The Tuxedo Man roared.
"Hateful..."
The Captain of the Knights stopped in his tracks once again.
He had no way to stop the Tuxedo Man from committing suicide at that distance, nor could he subdue him.
On one hand, there was the distance; on the other hand, there were quite a few passengers between Alice's seat and Dekan's seat.
If only someone could create an opportunity for him.
Even if it's just to restrain the Tuxedo Man for a few seconds.
The Tuxedo Man gripped the knife tightly in both hands, letting the blood trickle down his neck, and stared intently at the Captain of the Knights as he moved closer to the window.
He has now lost his biggest bargaining chip.
Continuing to threaten Dekan is also an option.
But the tide had turned.
Showing off is never a good strategy.
Most importantly, he fully realized how strange and unpredictable Dekan was.
Looks like a ghost!
Although the church members involved in the operation were aware of Dekan's behavior patterns and the cards he had used in the Shadow World.
But when he actually encountered Dekan, he truly understood the despair of those members who had died tragically at Dekan's hands.
True despair comes from the moment you feel you have victory in your grasp and are about to win.
The next second, you realize that you are actually just a toy in the other person's hands.
He didn't want to experience that bottomless feeling again for even a second longer.
As long as he can keep an eye on the Captain of the Knights's movements and use [Pain Shield] to defend against Dekan's painful attacks, he can escape!
He'll be safe once he breaks the window and summons the previously prepared flying creature.
However, just as he was about to complete his escape plan...
"Hehe, silly!"
There was some commotion near the cockpit; three short-legged dolls had suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
They have a chibi-style Dekan appearance.
She was looking at the Tuxedo Man with a mocking expression, and was still spouting trash talk.
At that moment, the Tuxedo Man was consumed by rage and lost his temper.
