Chapter 1132: The Smile of Dueling

~7 min read 1,343 words

Can't go out!

Vetrix discovered in depression that his body seemed to have betrayed him, refusing to execute his instructions.

The demon in yellow didn't mean to stop him at all, just sitting there smiling and watching him. The door was not locked, and it was wide open in front of him, but he was sweating profusely from exhaustion and just couldn't go out.

This feeling is very uncomfortable. One side is so exhausted that people are about to collapse, anxious and itchy, but the little brother is hanging up there and indicating that big brother, don't toss, I'll lie down this time—that's probably how you can imagine his depression at this time.

Vetrix sweated profusely for a long time, then looked at Fujiki You Xuan in surprise and anger: "What did you do to my body!?"

His body refused to accept his instructions, refusing to leave this room. His Crest power was the same, no matter how he tried his best, there was no reaction.

It was as if someone had cut off his communication channel for mobilizing Crest power.

"Just like I said, I just kindly asked you to stay here." Fujiki You Xuan shrugged and smiled.

In fact, from the animation, Vetrix can be considered to have some similar abilities, such as brainwashing, hypnosis, kidnapping, and playing cards with side-door tricks, he didn't do less. But ZEXAL and the previous works' Dark Duel nature are not quite the same. Vetrix's superpower doesn't necessarily have to rely on winning a duel to activate, so he is not familiar with Fujiki You Xuan's Dark Duel means.

The key is that the Dark Duel and his power nature are completely different. Although Vetrix now realizes that his spirit and body have probably been affected by the opponent, he doesn't know at all when he was hit, and the Crest power in his body has no way to resist this kind of spiritual influence, which makes him especially terrified.

In such a state, he naturally has no right to refuse to answer or lie to Fujiki You Xuan's subsequent questions.

However, it must be said that Vetrix is still a very adaptable person. There is a saying that life is like a nymphomaniac; if you cannot resist, you must learn to enjoy it. At this time, Fujiki You Xuan saw such a spirit in Vetrix.

He first tried to resist, but after trying and finding that resistance was fruitless, he simply lay flat. Fujiki You Xuan asked one sentence and he answered three, and even learned to draw inferences from one instance, and he even opened his mouth for things that weren't asked at all.

He first briefly talked about the feud between him and Faker, saying that he was sold by Faker back then and fell into the cracks of another dimension, his body shrank and he became this appearance that looked like a child but had wisdom that was too high. He also explained how he was rescued by the Barians and how he traded with the Barians.

It's just that he didn't know much about the Barians, he just took the power from the Barians and then acted as a pawn. He also knew that he was being used as a gun by the Barians, but he didn't care, as long as he could take revenge on Faker who betrayed him back then, everything else didn't matter. So he couldn't give any clues about the Barians' motives and whereabouts.

But about Dr. Faker, he still had key information.

"Faker also has his eyes on this dimension, I'm not sure about the specific reason, but I'm afraid it's also the

Vetrix said indifferently.

Fujiki You Xuan nodded: "We already know about this."

After all, he had already clashed directly with Dr. Faker's subordinates, and even the man's own biological son. Fujiki You Xuan waved his hand to show he wasn't interested, telling him to say something he didn't know.

However, Vetrix then threw out a piece of important information: "That idiot Faker hasn't realized it yet, but after I arrived in this dimension, I grasped a key conduit that guy established."

"A conduit?" Fujiki You Xuan said.

"It isn't easy to come to this world from our Barian World, and the fact that I could travel to this dimension at will actually relied on Faker's technology."

Vetrix explained.

"That guy Faker opened something like a channel between our two worlds, allowing a connection to be maintained between them. The conduit is the foundation that allows us to travel back and forth between the two worlds.

If Faker's technology hadn't first built the foundation for the conduit, even with the teleportation ability of my Crest, I wouldn't have been able to cross the dimensional barrier." Fujiki You Xuan became interested: "So, something like a portal?"

"You could understand it that way. The conduit is the foundation for transport between the two dimensions, but we don't necessarily have to arrive exactly at the conduit's exit when we teleport over."

Vetrix explained.

"But if you control the conduit from this end and can calculate the data of its spatial fluctuations, then theoretically, you can predict in advance when someone is teleporting over from the dimension on the other side, and it's even possible to calculate the coordinates where the opponent will land."

Fujiki You Xuan's eyes lit up.

This piece of information was indeed crucial.

It meant that as long as they controlled and studied this conduit thoroughly, then whenever anyone came over from the other side, they could have their guns and cannons set up in advance, casting a net and waiting for the fish to swim right into it.

Going a step further, if they could even understand the scientific principles and construction methods of this conduit, perhaps it could help them lock onto the dimension on the other side faster, and it would be entirely possible to launch a counterattack.

"I can give you the specific coordinates of the conduit in this dimension." Vetrix sneered, "Faker's subordinates have been repeatedly thwarted in this dimension, and Faker's position likely won't allow him to delay any longer.

If Faker is going to set out personally next, heh heh, then there's nothing better."

Fujiki You Xuan understood.

Although Vetrix was currently in a state of having lost a duel and being controlled by him, forced to tell everything he knew, he suspected that even without the Shadow Game control, the current Vetrix would have volunteered this information.

The reason was simple: he and Faker had an irreconcilable blood feud.

At this moment, Vetrix had already been captured, and it wouldn't be strange if he were finished off by the evil duelists of this dimension at any time. So, Vetrix figured that he was probably done for anyway, so he might as well entrust his revenge to this Yellow-Clothed Demon King.

The Demon King was also in an opposing camp to Faker, and he had already experienced firsthand the Demon King's immense strength, cruel methods, and insidious nature. Since that was the case, entrusting his revenge against Faker to the Demon King was not a bad choice.

Perhaps the Yellow-Clothed Demon King could make Faker experience what cruelty really was even more profoundly than he could.

Thinking of this, Vetrix, who was clearly still a prisoner, couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth, involuntarily emitting a cold, "Jie jie jie" laugh.

Faker, just you wait.

At this very moment, Jonouchi, who was watching the interrogation process from outside, couldn't help but be puzzled when he saw Vetrix's expression: "This guy, he's clearly finished, so why is he still laughing like that? Could it be a trap?"

"No, I recognize that smile." Judai laughed.

"Oh?" Jonouchi was confused.

Judai explained with a smile: "Back when we were at the Academy, whenever classmates who had been beaten by Fujiki You Xuan watched Fujiki You Xuan duel others, they would all show this expression."

Jonouchi: "..."

So, does this count as bringing smiles through dueling... or not?
