I believe the answer is:

disenchant

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'create disillusionment' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'this can end badly' is the wordplay.
'badly' indicates anagramming the letters.
'this'+'can'+'end'='thiscanend'
'thiscanend' anagrammed gives 'DISENCHANT'.

'and' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for disenchant that I've seen before include "Make someone feel let down" , "open someone's eyes" , "take the magic away" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
