"I can't do it."
"We have known each other for so long, but this is the first time you have come to me for help. I can't even remember the last time you invited me to your house to drink baby milkshake."
"Although many of my cherished cards were created by you - let's be frank, you never wanted my friendship, you were afraid of owing me a favor."
"But, I understand you -" Hayato, who was holding a passing cat and sitting on the tiles of the roadside flower bed as if he were some powerful figure, changed the topic and said in an even more nonchalant tone: "You think Kaiba Entertainment Group is paradise. It's a pleasure to work with Seto Kaiba and you are doing quite well. With Seto Kaiba and Kaiba Group helping you, you don't need a friend like me."
"But now you come to me and say, 'Hayato boy, please save Pegasus Yakou'... You don't have any respect for me. You don't treat me as a friend."
"You don't even want to call me 'Savior of the Wicked.'"
"Then you use money to bribe me to let your adopted son go after I let him end up like this?"
Hearing Hayato's inexplicable words, Becas, who had just stepped out of the passenger seat, was obviously confused: "Huh? But I haven't said anything yet?"
Because Hayato and Kaiba and the others left first and came to the Egyptian branch of Kaiba Entertainment Group. The car Yu Yu and the others took was driven by Malik, and Bekas sat in the passenger seat and got off the car first.
Hearing what Becas said, Hayato said with a helpless expression: "Becas, Becas...what did I do to make you disrespect me so much?"
Although Hayato tried his best to exude a cold murderous intention and at the same time persuaded Becas like an old friend, Becas completely ignored his performance and asked Keppei who was standing next to Hayato: " What happened to Hayato boy?"
"You know, just like girls always have a few days a month when they are very irritable, Hayato-nii always has a few days a month when he is not normal." Keppei said as usual, "But when it comes to I have to mention my brother, who is even more of a heavyweight and spends a full 25 hours of the 24 hours a day in the middle two state."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, you don't understand at all, Keppei, "The Godfather" is a man's romance, and the lines just now are among the top three of the lines I want to say most in my life."
Seeing that none of the people present cooperated with him, Hayato was forced to act and let go of the unexpectedly clean wild cat in his arms. Seemingly reluctant to leave Hayato, the cat rubbed Hayato's trouser legs before leaving, "By the way, although it is top 3, it actually has five sentences."
"No, we are too lazy to complain about the outdated 'there are five of the Four Heavenly Kings' meme. But, Hayato-nii, you really attract cats." Looking at the cat going away, Keppei said casually.
Compared to the leisurely Hayato and Keppei, Bekas seemed slightly more anxious, eagerly asking Hayato and Keppei: "Going off of that! Where is Nocturnal Boy?"
Because of his anxiety, Becas even returned to normal English when speaking, no longer using his usual strange accent, and Hayato also realized the changes in Becas: "Because of the death of [Tragodia] , have the distorted memories been corrected on their own?"
"[Tragodia], is that the name of the duel monster? I also know how uncomfortable the people who were once controlled by me with the power of the [Millennium Eye] feel." Bekas said with some embarrassment, obviously He once relied on the power of the [Millennium Eye] to repeatedly play with the minds of others, but now he has become one of the victims controlled by the power of the mind.
"I should have noticed it a long time ago. In the past ten years, Moonwalking Boy and Nightwalking Boy have been the closest people to me, even more so than Mr. Crowgates. As for Nightwalking Boy's strangeness, I should have noticed He was the first one to notice it.”
"For everything he has done, me, as the guardian, also has an unshirkable responsibility. So," Bekas looked at Hayato, "Nightwalk Boy is now..."
Seeing Becas's worry about Pegasus' night travel, Hayato shook his head and said: "Don't worry, that guy is not dead. Although the dark game originally killed him and Tragodia, I deliberately adjusted the darkness before. The game lowered the severity of the punishment, leaving him and Tragodia breathless."
"The card of [Tragodia] has been recovered by me and treated harmlessly. After all, compared to the seal that will be broken again one day, I think it is more worry-free to solve it once and for all. "
Raising his hand and pointing in the distance, Bekas followed the direction Hayato pointed and saw Americaruda and Kaiba, as well as the two people squatting down and seeming to be surrounding someone, "As for your unconscious one?" The adopted son of the heart, I am too lazy to deal with him, so I leave it to you, Becas."
Seemingly recognizing that the person lying on the ground was his adopted son Pegasus Ye Xing, Bekas trotted over without any grace at all.
After Bekas, Yugi and others also got out of the car. Under the questioning of curious Jonouchi and Honda, Hayato also told him everything he knew.
"You suffered a tragedy because of the birth of the [Millennium Artifact], and then you caused tragedies for others and committed crimes." He clearly remembers some of the crimes that An Tapirang committed when he controlled him, and they are also on the stone tablet of Wang Zhi's memory. Tapirang, who has witnessed Bakula's past in the world, can't help but feel a little sad, "It's pitiful, but it's also unforgivable. The same goes for me."
"Is the combination of humans and elves just like Mahad..." Atum, who shared the perception with Yugi in [Millennium Building Blocks], heard this, thought for a while and said, but shook his head, "No, Mahad and Mahad [The Magician of Illusion] merged into one to become the [Black Magician], which was achieved based on the same will. Mahad is also the dominant consciousness of the [Black Magician], but [Tragodia] and Pegasus Yakou , just using each other."
"There is also the astrologer Tragodia who merged with the monster three thousand years ago. Maybe the inspiration for the fusion of humans and elves that Mahad and Kalim jointly researched came from this."
Jonouchi patted Yugi on the shoulder, and also said to Atum, who was of the same mind as Yugi: "But no matter what, the matter is finally over. The real culprit and the mastermind behind everything have been defeated by Hayato, and we have You don’t have to worry about running into any danger anymore.”
"Is it really like that? I'm very doubtful..." Honda recalled his past experiences and couldn't help complaining, "Every time we go out together, something always happens when we take transportation. I almost suspect it. It’s not like any of us carry the curse of ‘Vehicle Killer’ or something like that.”
Jonouchi thought Honda was serious, pointed at himself and said, "Huh? Is it me?"
"No, it's impossible for you alone." Several people said in unison.
Malik looked at the people surrounding the fallen Tenma Yakou in the distance, and curiously asked Hayato: "But brother-in-law, you just said that the guy named Tenma Yakou was beaten hard by you." , turned into a monster form that merged with the card monster?"
"That's right."
Malik said in confusion: "Then why does the guy who fell over there clearly look like an ordinary human? And he actually has green hair. Rather than saying that he is a Pegasus, is his surname actually a seahorse?"
"Although Kaiba Naia does have green hair, Kaiba Gozaburo does not. You think too much." Hayato looked at Malik with an idiot look, who just made a random guess based on his hair color, "Is it possible that as long as it is pink? A woman with hair, leadership, driving a fighting machine, and leading the revival of a declining force must be Haman? Actually, it’s Kit."
"You're talking about something that others can't understand again. How much do you like robot animations from the last century? And what is Kit?"
"It's the iron beast front that's active in the treasure-protecting cannon demon. Isn't it awesome, your brother Ji?"
"By the way." Keppei sighed helplessly and looked at the curious Kyoko, Yugi and others, "Actually, just now Pegasus Nightwalker did appear in front of us in the form of a duel monster [Tragodia] , and I’m going to duel with Brother Hayato.”
"Isn't this looking for death? Who would think of asking Hayato to torture themselves?" Malik complained.
"I think so too, but all in all, the duel started like that, and then after Hayato-nii tortured that guy to death... I mean, after defeating his opponent in an interesting duel, the guy muttered to himself for a while and then Just fell down.”
After a pause, Keppei said with some confusion, "The strange thing is that after that guy lost the duel, his body quickly changed back to a human form. It was like a transformed character in a tokusatsu drama. It’s the same as if you are defeated, your transformation will be released.”
"Dueling monsters is amazing, isn't it~"
Without being interrupted by Hayato who interrupted midway, Keppei looked at Becas and Kaiba, who seemed to be arguing not far away, and continued: "Although I didn't see anything like an 'elf', no matter what Hayato-nii, Amaluda, and Onii-sama all seemed to have seen it, and Onii-chan was very interested in Pegasus Yakou's 'henshin', so he was studying the unconscious Pegasus Yakou over there."
"I must dissect it immediately!" "This is the only living sample!" "Don't treat the nocturnal boy as an experimental subject!"
"It's really full of energy, but that guy from Tenma Yakou brought it on himself. I haven't forgiven him, even now." Hayato said, looking at the people in the distance. He lowered his head, only to find another wild cat passing by. Rubbing his trouser legs.
"According to what I said just now, it's obviously you who took the initiative to let that Pegasus fly by the night, brother-in-law?" Malik joked, "Tsundere has already quit the environment a long time ago, and she is the only one who likes you so much."
"Don't leave me alone with the CPU. I'll complain to your sister when I get back."
"ctrl+z, please treat me as if I didn't say anything."
Seeing Malik's amused look, Kyoko and Yugi looked at each other, covering their mouths and snickering, while Honda and Jonouchi even pretended not to.
However, Atum fell into silence. Tapirang's casual words just now reminded him that although Tragodia was the culprit, it was the one who made him change from an astrologer to a monster that hates everything. The birth of [Millennium Artifact].
Although the power itself is not divided into good and evil, the [Millennium Artifact] is indeed stained with too much sin and blood that cannot be washed away. Bakula, Anubis, Tragodia and others three thousand years ago, as well as Bekas, Tapirang, Malik and others in modern times, are all victims of the [Millennium Artifact].
When such thoughts emerged in his mind, Atum also made up his mind and said to Yugi: "aibo, can I borrow your body temporarily?"
"Another me?" Yugi was stunned for a moment, and he smiled slightly as he felt the same as Atum, "Well, I understand."
The light on the [Millennium Building Block] flashed, and the character of the game changed instantly. Naturally, everyone who knew him knew immediately that it was Atum who had come out of the [Millennium Building Block]. Although Jonouchi is often said to be "slow" by Maurya, but in fact he is just a little naive, Jonouchi intuitively guessed Atum's intentions even before Atum said anything, not to mention other things. How many people are there.
But before Atum spoke, Hayato said: "Atum, before you say that, wait a moment."
As he spoke, Hayato turned his back, held his hands in front of him, turned his head slightly to the side, and looked behind him with his peripheral vision. His slightly long hair was raised in the breeze, and he said loudly: "You are spying on us, right? Xia Di!"
"No, why did you suddenly say that annoying bald man's name?" Jonouchi said in confusion, waving his hands casually, "Hayato, don't you think that guy has been following us since he left last time? ?Isn’t that just a moron? There can’t be such a person————”
"As expected of Hayato Kobayashi, you can actually see through my perfect disguise." From under the parked car next to a few people, a light suddenly emerged... Xia Di wrapped in a turban!
"There really are idiots!"
Ignoring Jonouchi's exclamation of horror, although he seemed to be lying under the car and following along, Adu...I mean Xia Di's white clothes were still spotless, and Xia Di, who stood up, still had no expression at all. Sima's face was grim, but he couldn't hide the helplessness shown when his dull eyes looked at Hayato.
To be fair, since he died many years ago due to Dark Tapiron and the Millennium Wheel of Wisdom, he has been wandering around the world for a long time using his characteristics between soul and entity, and has never been discovered by anyone. Only Kobayashi Hayato can discover himself again and again.
"I'm very curious, Hayato Kobayashi, how do you accurately detect my presence time and time again? I'm really curious."
"Actually, I'm blind, hehe~" Hayato folded his clothes to cover the [Millennium Wisdom Wheel] where the light had dispersed, "otherwise, do you think it's my intuition as an excellent duelist?"
Xia Di glanced at Hayato's chest and didn't say anything. Instead, he looked at Yugi, or Atum, and said: "I really admire you for making such a determination. After all, not everyone can cut off the [Millennium Artifact] brought darkness to the world and decisively gave up the rare second life."
"Sure enough, Atum plans to..." Although it was just a guess at first, after hearing Xia Di's words, Kyoko knew that her guess was right and turned to look at Atum, her eyes full of reluctance.
"Then, let me guide the path for Pharaoh, who is no longer unknown, and guide you to the stone slab that will allow you, Pharaoh, to return to the underworld."
