Chapter 1434: Aster the Unlucky

Aster knelt on the ground, watching his trump cards Dystopia and Dominate Guy gradually turn into phantoms and dissipate before his eyes, his gaze gradually becoming blurred.

He had thought that he might feel regret, frustration, or even anger at his defeat, but there was none.

There was only endless emptiness, and a sense of ridicule for himself for having boasted of being the "strongest HERO user" until now.

After witnessing the great power of that jellyfish-head today, he suddenly realized in his heart—did his own three-legged cat-like tricks deserve to be called HEROes?

Look at others, look at that Neos that jumps back and forth.

Gorgeous absolute power, a powerful deployment ability that felt unstoppable, plus that domineering appearance and an unstoppable draw engine...

Watching the gorgeous and powerful posture of Neos after upgrading, Aster seemed to suddenly recall something in an instant.

His original intention, which he had forgotten after becoming the commander of the Fusion Army and joining the Academy forces.

Aster had chosen his Deck since he was a child, becoming a firm HERO user. Later, as he grew into a powerful duelist and joined the Academy army, his status became higher and higher, and his Deck had never been changed.

But as he became stronger and stronger, he couldn't remember why he chose HEROes as his main force in the beginning.

The figures of HEROes active between the skyscrapers in the moonlight, that coolness and heroism, seeing the heroic posture of every new HERO appearing, deeply shocked the young Aster back then.

But I don't know when it started, Aster, who only blindly pursued becoming stronger and becoming the strongest duelist, seemed to have forgotten all those things.

But today, seeing this jellyfish-head summon one after another HEROes he had never seen before, various forms of Neos appearing one after another.

While being beaten up by the opponent, Aster's longing and yearning for unknown HEROes seemed to have returned after a long time, making him recall the starting point of choosing the HERO Deck when he was a child.

Over so many years, he seemed to have become stronger, but he had also forgotten his past self and that longing.

At the end of the duel, Yugi also walked up.

"You look like you might have once been a duelist with a correct heart."

Yugi said, the Millennium Puzzle hanging on his chest suddenly blooming with brilliance. But Yugi's aura changed drastically, and under the shroud of the Puzzle's light, he felt like he had grown taller in a second. Those who knew him knew that this was switching to the Pharaoh personality.

Dark Yugi's forehead lit up with the brilliance of the Eye of Horus, and his five fingers spread out, his palm pushing forward.

"If you forgot your honor in the process of growing up, let me help you remember it.

Mind Crush!"

Dark Yugi's figure instantly seemed to tower into a giant in Aster's eyes, and the invisible pressure like a landslide blasted toward Aster.

Aster instantly felt a buzz in his brain, his heart trembled, and he seemed to hear the sound of something shattering with a clatter in his ears, as if his personality had been smashed like a mirror by a heavy hammer.

Along with that sound, he felt even more like a head-on blow. The shattered image fragments poured back into his mind like a flashback of memories that didn't belong to him.

He remembered.

Before Gulus descended, when the Duel Academy was still commanded by the supreme leader Leo Akaba, known as the "Professor."

At that time, Aster swore allegiance to Leo Akaba, and as the supreme commander of the Academy army, he led the Academy army to victory, invading one dimension after another...

Later, he met a tomato-headed boy named Yuya, was brainwashed by the opponent's set of entertainment duel combo punches, and joined the "Duel-tainer" cult.

However, he never expected that the cult leader, the tomato-head, would rebel himself and turn into Gulus. Later, Aster, upholding the teachings of the Duel-tainer cult, went up to try to challenge the blackened cult leader, but was brainwashed again by the cult leader's set of Supreme King combo punches and washed back into the Academy camp...

The lost memories, along with the blow of Dark Yugi's "Mind Crush" that shattered the darkness personality Gulus had imposed on his heart, suddenly surged like a tide.

He remembered!

"Right... right!" Aster clutched his splitting head, "I originally wanted to stop Gulus, I still have partners from other dimensions, everyone fought hard... ahhhhh!"

He curled up on the ground, clutching his head, as if fighting something in his mind.

The current Jaden could also be considered a master on the side of Dark Games, and he immediately saw what Aster's condition was, and immediately cheered him on: "Come on Aster! I believe that no matter which dimension's Aster you are, Aster is Aster!

The Aster I know will absolutely not lose to the darkness in his heart!"

Aster: "I... cannot... ahhhhh"

Jaden and Yugi activated their respective powers simultaneously. Both of their powers were originally incomparably powerful, and coupled with defeating Aster in the duel just now, they naturally easily took the initiative.

The two joined forces to increase the output, and the shadow covering Aster's heart was finally completely shattered, and his eyes suddenly became clear.

"Right, I am not Gulus's lackey, I... I want to bring smiles with dueling!"

On the side, You Xuan, the only one who knew the ins and outs of how this dimension evolved into the current situation, was speechless.

Well, even the cult leader tomato himself rebelled, yet he still remembered the teachings of Duel-tainer, Aster could be considered quite difficult.

"Yu-Gi-Oh! Arc-V" was probably the most abstract generation in the history of Yu-Gi-Oh. Not only did the protagonist tomato himself blacken into the BOSS, but the bigger point of contention was that the process of the protagonist group coming to stop Gulus's duel also seemed a bit weird.

Rather than trying to use "personality correction cards" to wake up the tomato, it was more like they were here to deliver takeout. And it was the kind of takeout platform doing activities and promotions, lining up to send heads.

Although the final battle did shape the force of the final BOSS Gulus, who was invincible in the world, in order to set off Gulus's strength, all the protagonist group members who were sacrifices to shape Gulus seemed a bit unclear during the card playing. Rather than saying Gulus was awesome and killed them all by himself, it was better to say they were deliberately sending heads to fulfill the force of this BOSS who only got one game of cards in more than a hundred episodes.

And Aster was one of these unlucky delivery guys who sent goods to the door.

So if the audience still regretted that the screenwriter didn't do a full set of tributes in the early stage of "Yu-Gi-Oh! Arc-V"—it was difficult to introduce Fusion and Synchro dimensions and pull back previous supporting characters to engage in sentimentality, but didn't let the protagonists of previous generations return—

Then in the later stage of the plot, the audience should instead start thanking the screenwriter for his mercy.

Because if the screenwriter really let the four generations of protagonists Yugi, Jaden, Yusei, and Yuma return, and then be slaughtered by Gulus like sending dishes, that would probably be the real disaster in the history of Yu-Gi-Oh animation. ===== CHAPTER 1435 =====
