Chapter 100

Because it is a very common monster card outside, and he has seen it several times, Fujiki You Xuan is sure that he should not recognize it wrong; the one appearing in front of him is indeed that "Marauding Captain".

Or rather, it is that monster, but the image is slightly different.

Although he is still wearing the armor in the card art, he is not carrying a sword, and he is wearing a white apron over his armor, with a chef's hat on his forehead, looking a bit funny.

So it seems that the captain is actually a hidden cook in addition to being busy charging into battle. Fujiki You Xuan's expression was a bit strange, vaguely feeling that he had seen this look in some card art.

"."

"I have already arranged for people to find the companion you mentioned."

Following the captain to a camp that looked like warriors gathering, he warmly invited Fujiki You Xuan to sit down and brought him a bowl of hot soup.

"Come, try this." The captain laughed and said, "I have studied the way of cooking a little bit, and I am still a little confident in my craft.

This is a dish I newly developed today, and everyone who has eaten it so far has unanimously praised it."

A passing warrior whispered: "Because those who didn't praise it are still lying down and can't speak..."

The captain turned around with a cold face, and the warrior ran away quickly.

Fujiki You Xuan: "."

Now he remembers, there is such a card, called "Marauding Captain", and the card art shows the captain cooking in the camp.

Theoretically, according to the outside time, it should still be the middle of the night, and he is a little hungry after tossing for so long. But whether the spirits' food is common with humans has not been verified, so for the sake of caution, he declined first.

"We gathered all the spirits with combat capabilities in the nearby area to fight, but those subordinates of the Evil God are too strong, our troops are retreating steadily, and the losses are heavy.

If it weren't for the hero arriving just in time..."

He turned around solemnly: "I need to express my gratitude to you on behalf of the colleagues who were rescued and everyone in this camp."

"No need, I just happened to pass by. And I don't plan to stay long." Fujiki You Xuan told the truth, "If you expect us to stay and help you fight the enemy, you might be disappointed."

"It's okay, we understand. The Evil God himself is in the Duelist's world; if you don't solve the main body, defeating one King of the Skull Servants will only lead it to support new agents."

The captain's expression became serious when he said this.

"However, this is what I want to say next..."

He got up and walked to a sealed box on the side of the camp, unlocking it solemnly.

Looking at the posture of preparing to unlock "the best sword in the village," but when he opened the box and took out the thing sealed inside and put it on his hand, he discovered that it was a strange Duel Disk.

The whole thing looks like a sword, inserted into a heavy scabbard; if it were carried on the back on weekdays, it might look like a big sword.

Fujiki You Xuan couldn't help but imagine it. A swordsman walks the rivers and lakes, roars when seeing injustice, pulls out the sword and Duel Disk from behind with a swoosh, inserts the deck and decides life and death with the opponent...

Hmm, maybe it's like this in the spirit world.

"I heard them say that the hero easily defeated that King of the Skull Servants and possesses rare and powerful strength."

The captain knelt on one knee with a sincere face.

"Please teach me the secret of dueling!"

"It's because I'm too weak and too incompetent that so many companions have fallen and so many companions have left... I don't want to continue like this."

"I want to gain the power to protect everyone and protect our home!"

Coach, I want to learn how to play cards!

Fujiki You Xuan: "."

He pondered for a moment and said: "Well, although I did win against King of the Skull Servants, my method of dueling might be a bit different from yours."

The Duelists outside the anime world are already simple enough, but according to his observation, the spirits' card playing seems to be even simpler.

He thought before, theoretically, if the deck is an extension of the spirit's own body, wouldn't the bond be full, and the god-draw be stronger than the Duelist?

But the fact seems to be that those at the peak of the card path are all Duelists. And spirits, compared to going into battle themselves, can exert more power when they are warriors under powerful Duelists.

Actually, if the god-draw level is not good enough, Fujiki You Xuan feels that he does have some ways to learn card playing quickly. But he is thinking at this time whether this method is an evil path for simple spirits...

As a result, the captain seemed to have misunderstood him.

He might have understood it as "power comes at a price"—which is indeed true many times. In the Yu-Gi-Oh! world, many powerful cards require powerful souls to control, and some cards that can give Duelists extraordinary destiny power often have very strong side effects.

A flash of toughness flashed across the captain's face, and then he gritted his teeth and said: "It doesn't matter what my body and mind become!

As long as I can gain the power to protect everyone, even if I sell my soul to the devil... no, even if I have to become the devil myself, I will not hesitate!"

Fujiki You Xuan: "No, that's not what I meant..."

He thought about it and stood up.

"Forget it, anyway, waiting is waiting. If you really want to, let's have a duel directly, and I'll demonstrate it for you."

Before, he thought that card playing in the Fairy Realm must be life-and-death, but later the big Beginning told him it wasn't. Dueling between spirits can be life-and-death or point-to-point, it's not necessarily a life-and-death struggle.

Fujiki You Xuan thought this was also true. If every card game must be life-and-death, wouldn't the first lesson of learning to play cards for spirits be to kill the master first...

So a moment later, the two came outside the camp, stood still, and unfolded their Duel Disks. The nearby spirits heard that the captain and the hero from another world were going to duel, and hurriedly gathered to watch.

Okay, so today is a duel with the Marauding Captain himself.

Fujiki You Xuan: "Magic card 'Confiscation', look at the opponent's hand and choose one to return to the deck."

"."

Fujiki You Xuan: "Trap card 'Raigeki Break', discard one hand card and destroy the first card on your field."

"."

Fujiki You Xuan: "Activate the effect of 'Puppet Plant' in hand, discard this card from hand to gain control of one Warrior-type monster on the opponent's field. I want to gain control of the second one on your field."

"."

Fujiki You Xuan: "'Marauding Captain', direct attack on 'Marauding Captain'!"

The "Marauding Captain" who was NTR'd to Fujiki You Xuan's field flew up mercilessly, the sword light slashed through, and with a swoosh, slashed down on the head.

It's just that Fujiki You Xuan let him hold back in the end, and the sword only slashed on the side of the main body's shoulder, making a pose, and the sword blade hit the floor with a clang, exploding with dazzling sparks.

【Marauding Captain, LP 0】

The captain, who was almost slashed to death by himself, looked up at the sky.

Started to think about why spirits should live, and why they were full and had nothing to do but play cards with a hero who was more evil than the Evil God...
