Chapter 112. Dekan's Righteous Proclamation

At noon, Tristine City was filled with expectant discussions everywhere.

The streets were filled with a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere, and various attractions were now bustling with crowds as if the New Year had arrived early, making it exceptionally lively.

Many residents who had leisure time at noon gathered in places with magic screens to watch the press conference that was about to officially begin today.

Many attractions equipped with magic screens had dispatched additional security forces and members of the knight order to stand guard.

"Dong... dong..."

The clock tower struck the hour.

The twelve chimes were neat and deep, full of rhythmic beauty.

The image on the screen began to change, displaying:

"Tristine City & Happy Group Collaborative Project!"

Subsequently, the text and graphic image changed to a live scene.

A Broadway-style interview reception hall appeared before everyone.

Tristine City's lord, Viscount Lampard, was sitting on a sofa on one side, while the small sofa on the other side was temporarily empty.

Obviously, it was waiting for the key figure of today's project.

That is, the appearance of the mysterious guest.

The viewing citizens whispered to each other, their expressions quite puzzled.

"Happy Group?"

Apparently, no one had heard of such an organization.

But the name sounded quite sunny.

It should be a legitimate organization.

Lord Lampard smiled and looked at the camera.

"Good noon, citizen friends. I am very happy that you can watch today's press conference."

"I believe I don't need to introduce myself much, so let's quickly start today's release."

The lord picked up a document from his side, the smile on his face becoming even more obvious.

"First of all, I want to formally announce to everyone that our Tristine City will become the only city-state in the world to have two Special-Grade Card Makers in residence!"

After saying this, the corners of his mouth curled up as if he could no longer hide his smile.

At the same time, the content of the document was displayed on the screen.

It was the agreement signed by Dekan in his own handwriting with Lord Lampard!

The entire city instantly erupted into a frenzy!

The sounds of discussion from in front of the various magic screens seemed to mix and blend together above the city.

"What's going on?"

"Besides Lord Ice Snow Princess, which other Special-Grade Card Maker is there?"

"...Could it be that newly promoted prospective Special-Grade Card Maker, Dekan?"

"It should be him! Not to mention whether a Special-Grade Card Maker from a foreign country would come to Tristine City, it's impossible for other countries to let their Special-Grade Card Makers join the Norton Kingdom!"

"My god, two special-grades..."

People couldn't stop discussing this news that would have a huge impact on the city they lived in.

The presence of a Special-Grade Card Maker was greatly related to the reputation of a city.

For example, for Tristine City, the city's fame brought to them by the Ice Snow Princess even far exceeded that of the "Magic City" Tristine itself.

This kind of reputation would bring great positive effects to the city's economy and development.

Having two special-grades was an almost immeasurable concept!

Because this would be the only city in the world today with two resident Special-Grade Card Makers!

In the future, even when people from other countries mentioned the Norton Kingdom.

They would probably think of Tristine City first, not the Royal Capital, Heavenlit City.

Although, there were other countries in this world that also had multiple Special-Grade Card Makers at the same time.

But the permanent residences of the Special-Grade Card Makers were not in the same city.

It was very much like the feeling that one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers.

Originally, everyone thought that Dekan's permanent residence would be the Royal Capital.

There was also a very small possibility that it would be the main city of Dekan's hometown, the Kuran Border Territory.

But they never expected that Dekan would choose Tristine City so decisively!

Certainly, this was a great joy for the city and the lord.

But for the Card Maker, it might not be a good thing.

Because it might constitute competition and other troublesome matters.

But on second thought.

Dekan and the Ice Snow Princess' card-making styles were completely different, and there wouldn't be much competition in terms of sales and resources.

As long as Dekan himself didn't mind being frequently compared to an 8th-rank Special-Grade Card Maker in the future, there would naturally be no problem.

No wonder the lord looked so happy today.

The lord continued:

"I believe everyone has also guessed it. This Special-Grade Card Maker who is about to reside in Tristine City is Mr. Dekan."

"Perhaps many resident friends have also heard of Mr. Dekan's miraculous Shadow World conquest journey, and his unique style of magic cards."

"However, after obtaining the qualification of a Special-Grade Card Maker, Mr. Dekan has never officially sold the magic cards he has made to the public."

"And the first content of today's press conference is precisely about this! The Happy Group, to which Mr. Dekan belongs, will also establish its headquarters in Tristine City, and it will become the sole distribution channel for Special-Grade Card Maker Dekan!"

"Let's welcome Mr. Dekan!"

Along with the high-spirited final sentence, the lord pointed towards the backstage.

Accompanied by cheerful jazz music, Dekan walked out from a door backstage and waved elegantly and calmly to the audience in front of the screen.

Dekan was wearing the same outfit he wore to the Special-Grade examination at Tristine Academy this morning.

Of course, this look was originally prepared for today's press conference.

"My god, is he also a half-elf like Lord Ice Snow Princess? Are all Special-Grade Card Makers so good-looking?"

"His smile is so sunny! Ah, my heart is melting."

Instantly, a young girl in front of the screen exclaimed, her eyes filled with nothing but fascination.

Of course, there were also other women of various ages, and even men.

"I really want to... him fiercely..."

"Compared to being a half-elf, the probability of him being a half-demon might be even greater..."

Just as the audience in front of the screen was discussing animatedly, Dekan also sat down on another small sofa near the lord.

This press conference was about to officially enter its key content.

With a confident smile on his face, Dekan looked at the camera and said:

"Hello everyone, I am Dekan. I am very happy to become a member of Tristine City. I will be strict with myself, set an example, and create a friendly and civilized city. The responsibility lies with you and me..."

Regarding this opening remark from Dekan, most residents didn't have much of a reaction.

Very ordinary pleasantries.

However, the Resurrection Church cultists hidden among the ordinary people felt as if a fishbone was stuck in their throats. They wanted to say something, but didn't know who to complain to.

How the hell do you have the face to say such things!

Without even batting an eye!

After introducing himself, Dekan began to introduce the Happy Group.

"The Happy Group, with a long-term vision, honest and legal conduct, and a concept of common growth, develops the company's profitable charitable cause..."

"We adhere to the 'customer first' philosophy, starting from creating the smiles and happiness of our customers, thereby enhancing the company's value, and at the same time promoting the prosperity of the city-state's civilization..."

"Our goal is to grow together with all our partners and share the value of growth; not forgetting to care for and give back to our customers, setting an example by our own actions, and promoting the healthy development of the card-making industry, magic engineering, and idol projects..."

"Become our Happy Heart member, and you will enjoy the most noble experience..."
