Chapter 105

【Beetle Armored Knight, LP 0】

Dueling in the Fairy Dimension is different from the Dark Duels in the outside world. Here, both sides' monster spirits and card effects are materialized, and the damage caused during the duel is real damage, but if both sides are just sparring, they can intentionally hold back and stop at the right point.

It's not like in a Dark Duel, where only one person can walk out alive in a game.

But of course, Fujiki You Xuan naturally had no reason to hold back against this beetle. Abyss Soldier's sword, without any reservation, directly split the beetle's braincase.

The latter lay on its back, blood splashing five steps away; after hanging up, its figure immediately decomposed and turned into light spots and dissipated.

And dropped a deck of cards.

Fujiki You Xuan walked up, picked up the deck, looked around, and couldn't help but frown.

Damn it, it didn't explode the Duel Disk...

That's the bad thing about the Fairy World. Many spirits' Duel Disks are not products of technology or tools, but are similar to growing out of the body, a part of the body. So when the person hangs up, the Duel Disk is gone too.

What a pity, otherwise Fujiki You Xuan thought if he carried the otherworld Duel Disk back, even if he didn't use it himself, selling it to President Kaiba for research would surely be a considerable income...

Forget it, harvesting a deck of cards is also okay.

Although he had no intention of playing Insects for the time being, and compared to the decks he already had, this deck wasn't very strong and didn't have many generic cards, but many of the cards in it should be fine to sell for a good price.

For example, he immediately thought of Senior Watanabe Shuichi from the Dueling Club; the other party should be very willing to pay a fair price.

Yugi watched from the side for a long time before finally couldn't help but say: "Wait, where did he go just now?"

Fujiki You Xuan was stunned, and it took a few seconds to react.

Oh, that's right, Yugi-classmate is still an innocent and naive student. According to the normal world line, Yugi at this point in time even debated seriously with Titan about the reality of the existence of Dark Duels.

A firm materialist good youth raised under Kaiba-style education.

"He hung up." Fujiki You Xuan told him the truth, "This is the rule of this world. In many places, dueling is not just a game, but a way of fighting. Dueling also determines the life and death of both sides."

Materialist good youth Yugi was shocked.

The expression was like saying, I haven't read much, don't lie to me, can playing cards still kill people?

However, Fujiki You Xuan immediately indicated that there is nothing to be surprised about. What's the big deal about someone dying playing cards? In the future, playing cards can even destroy the world and reverse time and space...

Yugi-classmate's worldview was hit by a huge impact.

The education he received since childhood told him that this kind of thing was too absurd, but deep in his heart, there seemed to be a voice telling him that this was true.

Moreover, they traveled from the abandoned dormitory to this strange continent and encountered Duel Monster spirits; these are undeniable facts.

So Yugi had to start facing this possibility for the first time in his life.

Playing cards might really kill people.

Then he suddenly thought of something and looked up at Fujiki You Xuan's back with a complicated expression.

In other words, did Fujiki You Xuan just duel at the risk of life and death?

And he seemed to have known this for a long time.

In other words, even if he knew, he still came up to take this duel without hesitation.

Is it because as a partner, he didn't want to let himself face this cruel duel?

At this time, Fujiki You Xuan was already humming a little tune and walking in front. Yugi followed silently, pondered for a moment, and suddenly asked.

"By the way, Fujiki You Xuan, did you... take that spirit's deck?"

"Yeah." Fujiki You Xuan said, "What's wrong?"

"Oh, nothing. It's just that I suddenly feel it's a bit strange to take someone else's deck..." Yugi scratched his head.

"Someone else's deck? Whose?" Fujiki You Xuan was strange.

Yugi was stunned: "Eh? Isn't it the deck of that beetle spirit just now?"

Fujiki You Xuan: "Where is that beetle spirit?"

Yugi: "Didn't you say... died?"

"Yeah, he's gone, how can it still be his?" Fujiki You Xuan said righteously, "This is an ownerless object, I picked it up."

Yugi frowned and thought.

Eh? That seems to make sense...

"Besides, a deck of cards thrown in this wilderness, if I don't pick it up, won't others pick it up? What if an evil spirit picks it up and uses it as a weapon to persecute kind people, wouldn't that be terrible?"

Yugi pondered: "Well... seems to make sense..."

"What do you mean seems? Of course it makes sense." Fujiki You Xuan waved his hand and continued, "Besides, even if no one picks it up, so many cards are abandoned in the wilderness, exposed to wind and sun, or bitten by wild beasts, isn't it pitiful if they are broken?

As upright duelists, we just want to give these poor ownerless cards a home, shouldn't we?"

"That's... that's right..."

Yugi was gradually fooled.

"Right?"

Fujiki You Xuan patted him on the shoulder and said earnestly.

"Yugi, dueling is not just a happy thing, sometimes there will be very heavy duels. You will encounter them sooner or later in the future, right?

Cards in the hands of those evil people will become weapons of harm, and as sunny and righteous duelists, we must never see our most beloved Duel Monsters being abused!"

These words touched Yugi's heart, immediately stimulating his love for playing cards and his sense of justice as a hero: "Yes!"

"So, in the future, if you have to face such a situation, remember never to be soft-hearted. The Duel Disk and the deck are the tools for those villains to do evil, we cannot leave them the opportunity to do harm again!"

Fujiki You Xuan was righteous.

However, after a pause, his tone softened.

"Of course, just from the perspective of a duelist, it's normal to feel guilty about taking away someone else's soul-like deck. But there's no way, sometimes heroes have to make sacrifices to maintain justice.

But! If you, Yugi, feel that this is too heavy, then let me bear it."

Fujiki You Xuan said with a smile.

Of course, he was just joking. But if Yugi really shared his opponent's deck with him after playing a life-betting card game in the future, then he would have to reluctantly accept it.

The water in the Dark Duel is too deep, he is afraid that Yugi can't grasp it, so it's safer for him to do it himself.

"Speaking of which, I haven't seen Fujiki You Xuan's deck this time before." Yugi said.

"Oh, because I saw this 'Abyss Soldier' in the Dueling Club two days ago, so I built a new deck with him as the core."

"Eh~ that's really good." Yugi showed an envious expression, "You and Misawa are both, I envy you guys who have good brains. You can easily come up with so many incredible combos, so many powerful builds..."

Fujiki You Xuan thought, no, no, no, I envy you instead.

If I had your ability, why would I spend so much effort to get a bunch of decks? Just stuff them all together and let them play freely, wouldn't that be the end of it...
