"No one knows where creatures like elves come from. It's just that at the beginning of human civilization, such magical existences appeared in this world along with an ancient game..."
"When some people with game talents are born, in other dimensional time and space, they may be born with corresponding companion elves. The relationship between the talented person and the companion elves is a different and concentric existence. We are each other’s other half…”
"The ancients were ignorant. Some people worshiped the spirits they perceived as gods or devils. Evil desires such as selfish desires added a mysterious cruelty to the whole game."
"Sir, are you talking about the dark history of games in ancient Egypt, where people communicated with gods, right?"
"you know?"
"Haima Group has published some magazines to introduce these things. Of course, Kaiba Group mainly wants to promote its own dueling game.
I had read about it in a magazine called "Duel History" before, but that was seven or eight years ago, and I can only remember some general information now. "
"Does it describe the possible consequences of worshiping unknown spirits indiscriminately?"
No. 1123 asked out of curiosity.
"There is no such story. It is just that the Kaiba Group is promoting the duel game it has produced, giving the self-produced game more history and mystery, thereby attracting more people to play their game."
Speaking of this, Pedri felt a little embarrassed.
"I'm not afraid of your ridicule, sir. I used to be obsessed with dueling games because of this kind of publicity. I spent a lot of living expenses to build a deck that I thought was powerful, and I wanted to become a real duelist.
Unfortunately, when the Duelist Tournament held by the Kaiba Group started, I was defeated and eliminated in the preliminary stage in Italy. "
"No wonder, it turns out you are also a duelist. Are you interested in playing a game of cards with me?"
"I am no match for you."
"But looking at you, you really want to have a duel with me, don't you?"
The figure reflected in No. 1123's eyes, Pedri's body is burning with the flame of a duelist's soul. Perhaps he was blackmailed by Jin Mo who followed No. 1123. This former tour guide and now assistant has rekindled the flames. A youthful passion for dueling.
"You have seen it. I do have the urge to fight you, but I know very well that I am not your opponent, so this is just an idea. Please forgive me for this overstepping idea."
Pedri shook his head and apologized. His bulging pockets contained his former deck.
"It's human nature for a duelist to want to duel with other powerful duelists. You don't have to apologize to me for this. There's still a way to go before we go back to the hotel. Do you want to have a duel with me? "
No. 1123 asked again, a duelist with a spirit of dueling is a good duelist, one who can be beaten by his own... ahem, can bring a smile to himself.
"But sir, I don't have anything that can be called capital to lose to you."
Pedri was a little moved, but also a little hesitant.
"The duel itself is a kind of capital. If I win, I will be able to get the smile after victory, and even if you lose, you can get the joy of dueling with me. This is a win-win deal for both of us. I don't think you should hesitantly."
No. 1123 said with a smile.
"Then sir, I will be disrespectful!"
Pedri took out a newly bought Duelist's Roulette. After both sides shouted "Duel", monsters were soon summoned around them.
There is no real venue, only the projection provided by the Duelist Roulette, and the appearance of the monster is not very clear.
But if you are just playing cards, this level of projection is enough. Not surprisingly, Pedri, who is not even an amateur card player, lost, but there was no sad look on his face, and he gave up the duel. After many years, I regained the joy and emotion of dueling.
"Sir, thank you for your willingness to fight with me.
A fight, but I have to say sorry to you. "
Unconsciously, the two of them arrived in front of the hotel. Pedri bowed and apologized to No. 1123 who was about to enter the hotel.
"After my duel with you, I feel that my life should not be like this. I am ready to resign from my current job and embark on the path of becoming a duelist again!"
Facing the gaze of No. 1123, Pedri expressed his true feelings. He wanted to become a duelist, not an assistant or a tour guide. He wanted to fight for the dream he had when he was young.
"It's good to have dreams, but you don't have to give up your current job if you want to become a duelist."
"If I don't let go of external things, with my current qualifications, I'm afraid it will be difficult to become a real duelist. I mean a professional duelist, not an amateur."
Pedri said seriously that he made this decision with great determination. He was aware of his mediocrity as a duelist, so he had to work hard wholeheartedly.
"From my standpoint, I am happy to see one more duelist in this world, but from my standpoint as I know you, I feel that I must ask you clearly about your situation, Pedri, is your family background very special? Excellent grip?"
No. 1123 asked directly.
"I'm not very good at it. I come from an ordinary family. I have one older sister and three younger sisters. My elder sister is married, but my younger sister is underage and needs to be raised. My parents have jobs, but they are just supermarket workers..."
Pedri's voice gradually became lower.
"It is a good thing to pursue your dreams, but if you are past the age of pursuing your dreams and want to pursue your dreams, you have to consider more things.
Otherwise, if you blindly pursue becoming a true duelist, you may go astray on the path of a duelist due to the influence of various adverse external factors.
Well, do you still remember what I just mentioned about what kind of consequences a person might encounter if he worships some unknown spirit indiscriminately? "
"Well, wasn't what you just said some myth?"
"I can tell you it's not, that's what really happened in this world.
Among the elves worshiped as gods and demons by ancient humans, there are some evil guys who like to bewitch humans who have encountered misfortune and are in trouble.
For example, it is like embarking on the path of a duelist, but finding that the reality is so difficult. In the future, you will be a failed duelist, trying to pursue powerful dueling power.
Perhaps, your personal life will not be in danger, but you may become the minions of those evil spirits, doing things that harm others, or even harm your family.
In the distant past, I have seen many crazy priests who killed their relatives and tribesmen, and used the blood of their closest relatives as sacrifices to worship the evil demon spirits that controlled their hearts. "
Speaking of this, No. 1123 seemed to recall some delicacies he had eaten before. He licked his lips and swallowed before continuing: "I have no intention of trampling on your determination to become a true duelist, but As someone who knows you, I would like to advise you that if you love your family, it is best not to let yourself fall into a situation where you will be targeted by evil spirits."
Don't think that as the world develops into modern times, such evil spiritual creatures will no longer exist. As long as humans still have evil desires, they will continue to be born in the elven world.
Of course, many of these beings cannot come out of the alternate-dimensional world, but the few who can come out are the ones who created the dark side of this world, such as the Dark Duelists. Most of the people in them can fight with some evil spirits. The elves got involved.
However, the modern world in this world is not as explicit as in the past, and will engage in things like massacres of villages and cities in blood sacrifices.
Therefore, No. 1123 is too lazy to chase down those guys who cannot be eradicated no matter how hard they kill them. The most they can do is to use dark duels to completely deprive those dark duelists of their dueling souls after encountering them. Just make those people never want to play cards again.
In this world of old cards, if you don’t want to play
Cards equal the loss of extraordinary power, and ordinary people without extraordinary power are roadside stones that most elves will not look at.
After all, duelists don't have enough souls, so trying to use force to control them is a completely thankless task.
After giving Pedri a warning, No. 1123 went back to rest. He was going to check out the other half of his consciousness to find out what happened to make him suddenly wake up.
.
.
Camula was a little sad to lose the Phantom Demon Gate, but compared to losing her life, the loss of the Phantom Demon Gate became an acceptable thing.
And just when the vampire was about to leave, the students of GX Academy did not want to let her go. Even if Camula said that she could change all the students who had been turned into dolls back to their original forms, these students refused to let her leave.
"Now that we're here, we have to play cards!"
"Jie Jie Jie, there are still so many of us. How can we not finish it all with you?"
"Don't even think about leaving, let's duel until dawn!"
…
In a sense, these students at GX Academy can be considered duelists who have been affected by the corresponding spirits produced by Power 1123.
From late at night to dawn, Camula experienced brutal multi-person duels. Even though the subsequent duels had nothing to do with the Dark Duel, her defeats in duels still made her feel deeply humiliated.
In the early morning, when the students left the training ground contentedly, the vampire lady had collapsed in the middle of the field, with tears streaming down her face like a broken doll.
"I will definitely take revenge for this humiliation!"
Camula said with some gritted teeth, and did not give up the idea of obtaining the key to the phantom seal barrier.
"Why don't we just kill that vampire dark duelist?"
On the other side, Sho Marufuji, who was heading to the school cafeteria for breakfast, asked his brother in confusion.
"After killing her, will the other party still come for a duel in the future? Xiang, you have to take a longer view. You can't kill the goose that lays the goose to lay the eggs."
Ryo Marufuji explained carefully. Like the students in the academy who suffered from duel syndrome, he could still tell the difference between a full meal and a full meal.
What is needed in today's academy is a strong duelist like the vampire girl who will come to the door for a duel.
Although there is a certain danger in dueling with these people, compared to this risk, the unsatisfied desire to duel of most students in the academy who suffer from duel syndrome is actually a bigger problem.
"No wonder, brother, you told that vampire in the end that if you want to get the seal key in our academy, let her bring more companions to defeat us in a duel. It turns out there is such a plan. Inside?!"
Marufuji Xiang reacted and was a little amazed at his own brother's calculations.
The corners of Ryo Marufuji's eyes twitched. He didn't want to have such a plan. However, this was something that his master, Principal Kashishima, entrusted him with, asking him to alleviate the symptoms of many sick students in the academy.
"Let's go eat. After eating, go back to the dormitory and rest. Maybe the next attacker or the unwilling female vampire will bring someone over for a duel."
The arrival of the dark duelists did not bring too much negative impact to GX Academy. On the contrary, every student suffering from duel syndrome had some satisfaction for the dissatisfied dueling soul.
Facing the possibility that more dark duelists will attack in the future, these students just want to say: Let this storm come more violently!
[Damn it, what kind of geomantic treasure is GX Academy? Why is there an unsealed demon in addition to the three sealed demons? ! 】
Daitokuji was very worried. He had paid attention to the duel that night when Camula attacked, and he was not sure whether he and the Seven Stars and others had fallen into the predatory net of the True Demon God.
And now the reason why the other party has not clearly appeared to stop the actions of their Seven-Star Organization is probably to be the man behind Cicada Mantis.
bird.
Of course, the target should not be these little shrimps, but the object they want to lift the seal from - the three phantom demons.
Dadeji is an alchemist, and he has examined the antiquity of many ancient ruins in the past, and some of the ancient ruins contain stories about the [True Demon God].
The stone tablets that originally recorded the story could not be made into corresponding cards, and they were thought to be mythical content fabricated by the ancients.
But now it seems that this is not a fabrication, but that the other party has never been sealed and is still moving freely in this world.
[Could the prophecy about the unsealing of the three phantom demons be the message released by the dark duelist controlled by the opponent? 】
Suddenly, Dadeji came up with this idea, and it was no wonder that he had such a guess. According to the relevant records on some ancient ruins tablets that he had seen, the demon god who suddenly appeared in the duel of Camula often wandered around. A place of worship for gods and demons in ancient times.
Whenever it appears, it will devour the believers who sacrifice gods and demons, as well as the gods and demons they sacrifice. It is a terrifying god from the dark world who likes to devour gods and demons.
In terms of personality, it is more terrifying than the three phantom demons.
"However, I don't seem to have the right to back down."
Looking at his finger that accidentally hit the corner of the table this morning, and the slight cracks now appearing on it like cracked clay pottery, Daitokuji couldn't help but sigh.
This body is now a doll made of magical clay, and it has reached its limit after persisting for so many years.
Either he can unseal the three phantom demons and gain the power to extend his life, or he can burst out with inspiration and create the Philosopher's Stone before he dies.
otherwise……
"I use the magic card [Philosopher's Stone] to resurrect Hohenheim in the graveyard!"
"Um?!"
Passing by Daitokuji Temple at the outdoor training ground, I stopped immediately.
