Chapter 42

Tenjou Hikari was packing things in the activity room.

The school gave them a small activity room—it's called small, but it actually has four or five rooms. Counting the dueling arena, it's bigger than the activity area Tenjou Hikari had in the Fusion Department.

Although Duel Academy is big, this level of activity room couldn't be approved so quickly for a student club with less than ten people.

But—

As the highest person in charge of the academy (self-proclaimed), Professor Chronos's power is infinite!

What Tenjou Hikari is packing now are the cards sent by teachers and several friends.

There are cards from the Ancient Gear series, and also cards from other series, such as HEROes.

Judai has a large number of HERO cards, and Misawa also has a large number of various messy cards. They are very willing to share them. If others are willing to join, that would be even better.

After all, this is a club in the true sense. As long as you are willing to join, everyone can happily play cards in the club. You don't even need a Duel Disk; just find a table, and Judai can play here all day.

The card addiction is really big.

And this is one of the few places where he can play cards with Marufuji Ryo without being blocked by Blue Academy students—previously, Judai once went to the Blue Academy to find Marufuji Ryo to duel, but was pushed to the ground by the Blue Academy gatekeeper students and splashed with cold water.

But with his superhuman physique, he won't catch a cold anyway.

"Putting it here should be fine." After Tenjou Hikari put things away, he wiped his sweat slightly and saw Sho Marufuji, who was tiptoeing and looking sneaky on the side.

"Marufuji?" Tenjou Hikari raised his eyebrows and asked.

"Ah! Ah—Tenjou-kun." Sho Marufuji was called and was physically startled, took two steps back, and shouted in terror.

Previously, Sho Marufuji followed everyone's enthusiasm and applied to join the Fusion Department, but after hearing that Tenjou Hikari had invited Marufuji Ryo when he was in Domino City, he didn't dare to speak again, and the application stopped.

He never knew how to face his brother, especially since Judai was going to another dimension for a tag duel, and Marufuji Ryo rushed into Slifer Red, telling Sho Marufuji that he must not follow, and let Judai find someone he could trust.

After that, it was Judai who saw Tenjou Hikari's duel was very interesting and invited Tenjou Hikari to another dimension, which led to the two becoming friends later.

In short, the Sho Marufuji of this dimension is even more afraid of his brother than the original.

I don't know whether to say Sho Marufuji is too cowardly or Marufuji Ryo is too protective of his brother.

You know, in the original work, when Marufuji Ryo dueled the vampire Camula, he clearly had the upper hand, but Camula kidnapped Sho Marufuji's soul to win. For his brother's life, Marufuji Ryo was willing to lose the game and turn into a doll.

As a brother, he definitely has no problems at all.

Rather, Marufuji Ryo himself has never had a problem; otherwise, he wouldn't have left so many fans and "faith" after the original work ended.

But as the saying goes, Marufuji Ryo has no problems, but Marufuji Ryo has a brother.

Oh, speaking of this—

Tenjou Hikari suddenly had an idea.

"Marufuji, you want to have a good relationship with your brother, right?"

"Er, yes?"

He was actually just coming over to see because Judai had been here these days. If his brother wasn't there, he might apply again.

"Then how about this, you join the Fusion Department."

"Ca, can I? I can join now—"

"Er, did you hear clearly? It's the Fusion Department."

"!? Ah, Tenjou-kun, didn't you just leave that side..."

Tenjou Hikari touched his chin and said: "It's precisely because I just left that side that I need someone there."

"Eh?"

"I started the new Fusion Department essentially because the Fusion Department isn't 'Fusion' enough, and it's too weird. The seniors inside are very strange. But conversely, those strange seniors actually have spirit.

Do you think your brother always thinks you're too cowardly? Isn't this just the right way to train you?"

"Is, is that so?"

"And, I started the new Fusion Department, surely I can't live in peace with the Fusion Department, right? When the time comes, if there's any movement, you'll definitely tell us, right?"

"This, should I?"

"These two days, I have also received many applications from students, basically all first-year students, and even many Blue Academy students and some girls who admire Kaiser... er, these are not important.

The important thing is, at this time you go to the Fusion Department, that's sending charcoal in the snow. You are Judai's friend. If you join the Fusion Department, you will definitely become their good propaganda mouth."

"Will, will I?"

Why is there no definite answer...

Tenjou Hikari shook his head and continued: "And, most importantly, you have always wanted to prove yourself to Kaiser, right? Joining the Fusion Department gives you the opportunity to duel us head-on. This—oh, look, isn't it coming?"

Following Tenjou Hikari's persuasion, outside the activity room, a group of students wearing purple uniforms walked over one after another. Most of them looked serious, their walking strides and movements were uniform, and they looked well-trained.

The leading student, Tenjou Hikari had seen before, was the third-year senior of the Duel Academy Fusion Department, Kamibayashi Kaname.

"Senior Kamibayashi, long time no see." Tenjou Hikari greeted.

"Long time no see." Kamibayashi Kaname still stood straight, but the academy representatives behind him didn't look so good.

Kamibayashi Kaname glanced at Sho Marufuji, who was hiding on the side in fear, and frowned.

Kaiser's brother?

As Kaiser's brother, just a Slifer Red, and he still has the face to stay in the academy?

"Tenjou, apply to disband the club immediately."

"?"

Tenjou Hikari looked confused: "Did you take the wrong medicine?"

"There is already a Fusion Department in the academy. Starting a new Fusion Department is completely unnecessary," Kamibayashi Kaname said. "Professor Chronos would actually agree to your application."

"Eh eh eh, Department Head," the Yellow Academy representative on the side really couldn't watch it anymore, hurriedly pulled him aside, and accompanied him with a smile, "Tenjou, you know Kamibayashi-kun has always been so straightforward.

It's the Professor, the Professor ordered us to come. Mainly, look, this Fusion Department and the new Fusion Department, it's easy for students to get confused, right?

At least call it something else?

For example, er, Simple Fusion Department? Or Mechanical Fusion Department?"

"Senior, you should know why I left the Fusion Department and why I started this club!" Tenjou Hikari stared at the Yellow Academy representative, making him feel guilty and lower his head, then said, "In my opinion, your Fusion Department is neither Fusion nor an activity department!

The one that should change its name is not me, but you!

Ah, speaking of which, it is—"

He suddenly smiled thoughtfully.

"It is, right? New? No, that's not right. I am a freshman, but I shouldn't be a new Fusion—I am Fusion!

Since you are here, let's take this opportunity. From today on, you change your name!

My club is the Fusion Department!"

At the end, he pointed at Kamibayashi Kaname with all his strength.

"You, this—you..." Several representatives couldn't speak.

"Hmph." Kamibayashi Kaname snorted coldly and prepared his Duel Disk without saying a word.

"Wait, Kamibayashi, he's just a 1st-year student—" Although they weren't sure they could win against Tenjou, it was really inappropriate for upperclassmen to bully freshmen.

"My brother went to the colosseum with Big Brother today." Sho Marufuji muttered on the side.

The two of them indeed have a big card addiction, but they also have a strong sense of responsibility. Seeing that Misawa was enthusiastic in the department for less than two days and started to get distracted again, they took Misawa to the colosseum.

"Don't get it wrong. Not as a student, but as the [Department Head]!" Kamibayashi Kaname stared at Tenjou Hikari with burning eyes. "Tenjou Hikari, bet the name of the department and duel me!"

Marufuji Ryo is indeed the academy's number one, but you, Tenjou Hikari, are just the first-year number one! And it's temporary!

"I couldn't ask for more!"

Tenjou Hikari didn't care about the obstruction of the Yellow Academy representative, directly lit up his Duel Disk, and shouted to Sho Marufuji: "Go call Professor Chronos."
