Chapter 389: Why Are Some People Born Villains

The Lightsworn spirits flew over, and accompanying them were the rescue troops from Kaiba Corporation.

Most of the students were normally protected, and Jim and the others felt relieved, finally breathing a sigh of relief.

However, just as everyone was boarding the vehicle with the help of Kaiba Corporation to go to the station to rest, a student who had been captured by demons, suffered tearing on his body, and had a mental breakdown due to either shame or fear, grabbed Judai's arms tightly and asked frantically: "Why, why didn't you save us sooner! Didn't you kill all those demons instantly? Why!"

"You bastard, get out of the way!" Sho saw this and was furious; he directly used his shoulder to bump the student away, cursing.

"It's fine, Sho, he's just too scared." Judai had a smile on his face, as if the person being scolded wasn't him at all.

After this person, other students continued to collapse and sob in low voices, but they weren't as irrational and didn't blame Judai. Some spirits saved because of Judai and the others came to Judai and thanked them continuously, and Judai waved his hand, saying it was nothing.

"Judai, you don't have to listen to that guy." Jim looked at the classmate who was covered with clothes and comforted in a low voice by Kaiba Corporation, turned his head, and said to Judai, "You've done a great job.

Honestly, if it were me, I wouldn't necessarily have defeated that Long Shen; maybe we would have all been wiped out."

"... No, he has a point."

"Judai?"

Judai clenched his fist in front of him, thinking about the words of 【the other himself】 before.

Victory is justice!

To defeat evil, one must be more powerful than evil, so that one can protect weak existences.

If, if he had been able to do what he did at the end before the duel started, he could have dispersed the demons days ago, without letting his classmates fall into danger, and without letting Jim, Sho, and these new and old friends risk their lives.

Just as he was thinking this, a few Lightsworn spirits blocked their path. They were a few Lightsworn warriors, gripping the weapons in their hands tightly, eyes staring at Judai without blinking, as if he were some kind of flood or beast.

Judai just raised his hand slightly and greeted them, and the few Lightsworn warriors instinctively raised their weapons, looking quite nervous.

"... Hello!" Judai broke the silence first, laughing and asking them how they were, looking like he didn't care about anything.

However, at this time, Jim had long since realized.

Judai was never a hot-blooded youth who didn't understand anything and didn't care about anything; hidden deep in his heart were very complex thoughts and ideas.

"What do you want?" Jim asked in a low voice.

"Lord Lord Ba Wang, please come with us."

Judai frowned slightly, and the smile on his face gradually dissipated.

The next moment, O'Brien stood in front of him and said: "Impossible! Judai has no reason to leave with you!"

He reached out to block in front of Judai: "No matter what kind of existence Judai is in your impression, he is a hero who saved countless students. This is something everyone has witnessed!"

This was an iron-clad fact!

Even those classmates who later resented Judai to some extent because of their own foolishness, even Judai's enemies, had to admit it.

He had performed a true heroic act.

"Human, you saw it too, right? That power?" The Lightsworn warrior said in a deep voice, "Instantly destroying countless demons and controlling the remaining demons to submit instantly, this power is the sign of the awakening of 【Lord Lord Ba Wang】's power.

The power of Lord Lord Ba Wang, who ruled over a dozen dimensions with terrifying force, is awakening in this human's body!

No matter what, we cannot just leave it alone!"

"And—" The Lightsworn spirit looked toward the other side of the sky, "Those Dark World demons, aren't they still alive in this area? Now they are obeying this human, aren't they?"

"They should be thoroughly eliminated!" The Lightsworn spirits behind them followed up.

"Thoroughly eliminated?" Judai's face didn't look good, "But there are also spirits among them who are just looking for me, protecting me. They even protected my classmates before finding me—and, aren't you here because you cooperated with them?"

Judai had heard from the Demon God's subordinates that the reason the Lightsworn located the Dark World so quickly and killed their way into this dimension was precisely because the Demon God couldn't defeat the Long Shen alone and was worried about 【Lord Lord Ba Wang】 having an accident, so it united with the Lightsworn.

"Eliminate evil completely; since the high-level spirits like the Dark World Long Shen, Mad King, and Demon God are all dead, this is a good opportunity to wipe them out once and for all!"

"You mean, you want to kill all the Dark World spirits? Including those righteous spirits who don't want to be associated with evil, and even including newly born spirits?!" Judai's tone became heavier.

He said this not simply because the remaining Dark World demons came to recognize him as king after the Demon God died; he had never accepted that from the beginning.

He also wasn't feeling that he bore the responsibility for all Dark World spirits just because the Demon God died in front of him.

But because—how can this be called justice!?

Killing them all without distinguishing right from wrong!?

"That's right—the Dark World is a world that nurtures evil; killing them all is the best choice." The Lightsworn angel added.

It admitted that the Dark World did have righteous spirits, but compared to the evil spirits born in the Dark World, that was just a drop in the bucket.

"They are born evil, born to harm things around them, born to threaten other spirits. So, this is the best way to deal with it!" It continued to explain, "We, the world of justice, pursue noble justice and will never allow evil to remain in the world."

While speaking, it also observed Judai.

Compared to the evil forces like the Dark World that had been fighting them for years, this "Lord Lord Ba Wang" in front of them was the truly dangerous terror!

"Born evil?" Judai's voice seemed to tremble.

"Big Brother?" Sho and Kenzan called his name.

"Why, why are some things born 【evil】?" Jūdai looked at this angel, but the question in his tone was more like an interrogation, causing this angel to instinctively begin to fear, to panic, and even to develop thoughts of 【submission】.

Judai remembered his childhood.

He was just a bit nerve-dull.

But he was never a simple person.

Especially when he discovered as a child that the children around him would start getting injured for no reason, and those who dared to win against him would fall gravely ill the very next day, he knew that he was not born a "normal" child.

Children called him a demon, a ghost child; no matter how big-hearted he was, he would feel pain and loneliness.

So, at that time, in order not to hurt other children or other people, he gave up making friends with other children, chose to make friends with the Hero series cards, and chose to become friends with cards, his own friends.

He believed he wasn't a "villain" by birth, and he also believed he wouldn't always be this bad.

After all, he had always been very lucky.

He was very lucky to meet the heroes, spent a happy childhood, was lucky to enter Duel Academy, was lucky to meet Professor Dadesi, Tiancheng Guang, Sho, Hayato, and more and more friends, was lucky to walk to the present, and became friends with Johan, Jim, O'Brien, and these foreign students.

However, his thoughts were disrupted and even denied by humans, by spirits, and by reality time and time again!

"Because, this world is like this; there is light and dark, there is good and evil." The Lightsworn angel responded tremblingly but firmly.

It didn't feel that its justice had any errors; it had lived for hundreds of years and seen countless ordinary lives killed by the Dark World. In its heart, the Dark World shouldn't remain and should be destroyed entirely.

The atmosphere in front was becoming increasingly stiff, and the air was terrifyingly heavy. O'Brien turned to look at Jim, signaling with his eyes, seemingly asking him to think of a way.

Jim frowned, gritted his teeth, and prepared to pinch the thigh of the crocodile Karen, pretending it was hurt to disrupt the atmosphere.

However—

Just at this moment, a vehicle drew a strange trajectory, pulling a long black line from the horizon with a squeak, and stopped not far from them, disrupting the thoughts of everyone present.

The car door opened slowly with a click.

"Are we here?" A figure appeared slowly at the car door, looking outside.

"Ah!" Sho exclaimed and let out a long sigh of relief.

"Wow—" Kenzan smiled instantly.

Judai's pupils contracted slightly, the terrifying low pressure on his body slowly dissipated, unable to help but raise his hand: "Yo! Long time no see."

"Hmm—hahaha, long time no see, long time no see. Quite a few acquaintances?"

"Tiancheng-kun!" "Guang-senpai!" Sho and Kenzan were excited.

"Tiancheng Guang!?" "The human fusion user?" The Lightsworn spirits also exclaimed.

Jim and O'Brien looked at each other, not knowing what the situation was.

Why did the atmosphere change instantly when this student appeared?

Tiancheng Guang shook his clothes slightly, hitting off the dust. Behind him, a small head poked out, mouth agape, saw Judai and the others, and waved at them: "Judai-senpai!"

The heavy atmosphere vanished instantly.

Judai had a sincere smile on his face: "Guang, you got things done on your side?"
