Chapter 598: Kebula's Secret

~7 min read 1,236 words

"Duel King."

Professor Kebula's eyes quickly turned cold.

The reason he chose this abandoned laboratory as a base was to avoid eyes and ears. Or more accurately, to avoid Fujiki You Xuan's eyes and ears.

Now that the other party had come here, his hiding seemed a bit redundant.

Kebula was a bit irritable.

What the hell? He set up quite advanced alarm systems here, but these people came in and out like their own toilets, didn't that make his previous arrangements look a bit stupid?

"Mr. Fujiki You Xuan." Amun caught his breath, recovering from the oppression of the dark power just now, "Why are you here?"

"I wanted to observe a little longer, but I didn't expect you to be so impatient here," Fujiki You Xuan shrugged. "So forget it, I won't wait either. Let's just show our cards."

Kebula's face turned colder when he heard the conversation between the two, and he said in a low voice: "Okay, you guys are in the same group, right?"

"Don't misunderstand, we just know each other."

Fujiki You Xuan said.

"I originally wanted to observe for a while, because I haven't found where that spirit is for the time being..."

Fujiki You Xuan said and looked around.

"There is a bit of her aura here, but it's not the real one," Fujiki You Xuan's gaze fell on Kebula. "It's just part of the power she left on you, right?"

In the original work, Yubel should have been in this laboratory, in a jar similar to a culture dish in this room.

But now the world line has changed, she doesn't seem to be here. In fact, Fujiki You Xuan felt that he couldn't sense her in this entire facility.

Kebula frowned.

Good, even the Duel King is here for that spirit.

"Oh, it seems that the spirit in the professor's hand is indeed a very special spirit as rumored," Amun said. "Even Fujiki You Xuan-sensei is interested."

Kebula glanced at him sideways: "The Garam conglomerate also wants to get involved, right?"

"That was before," Amun hugged his chest and smiled. "But the situation has changed now. Since it's something Fujiki You Xuan-sensei likes, I won't humiliate myself. The Garam conglomerate will no longer participate in this matter."

Kebula frowned.

This surprised him. He felt that Amun didn't look like someone who would give up easily. In the past, the mysterious spy of the Garam conglomerate had quite a reputation, and it was said that he would do anything to achieve his goal, and there was no reason for him to let go of the things he had his eyes on.

But now, he knew that the King was interested in this spirit, and he decided to give up without even trying?

What Kebula didn't know was that Amun had already fought Fujiki You Xuan and reached a special agreement.

If the past Amun was willing to do anything for the conglomerate and the family, and was willing to be a shadow doing dirty work all his life, then now his mentality had changed.

Fujiki You Xuan showed him a new path, a path that allowed him to regain his forgotten dreams and truly realize his self-worth. Now, the family and the conglomerate were no longer important to Amun.

His trip here to take away Yubel was originally a task assigned by the family, for the benefit of the family. But now this didn't matter to Amun.

Kebula's gaze quickly turned back to Fujiki You Xuan, becoming more solemn.

"So that's it, even the shadow of the Garam conglomerate is convinced by the King. It's really more and more curious, what kind of incredible means the King has."

"I know your plan," Fujiki You Xuan said calmly. "You asked me to duel at the opening banquet, and then took the opportunity to hold a duel tournament for the whole school."

"You want to use the watch device to extract the energy of the dueling students and let that spirit revive, is that it?"

Kebula: "!"

Even a man like Kebula who had fought in many battles and seen big storms couldn't hide his surprise at this time. Even if he knew about the existence of that spirit, even if he guessed his purpose was to want that spirit to revive, how could the details be known so clearly?

Could it be that, as the unreliable rumors say, the Duel King can read minds?

This is not an unprecedented nonsense; some powerful dark duelists with special abilities have mind-reading powers. For example, Maximillion Pegasus, the father of Duel Monsters, had the "Mind Scan" ability to see through the opponent's thoughts before losing the Millennium Eye.

"Forget it, no need to wait for the banquet time. If you want to play, I'll play with you."

Fujiki You Xuan opened the duel disk.

Kebula frowned: "Right now?"

"Of course," Fujiki You Xuan smiled. "Of course, it's not for fun. This duel, I want to bet on that spirit. If I win, you have to hand over that spirit."

Kebula: "Then what if I win?"

"Simple, I'll also give you what you want most," Fujiki You Xuan said lightly. "I'll be responsible for helping you revive that spirit."

Kebula's heart moved.

Indeed, this is his ultimate goal, and even the only meaning of his life now. He needs the power of that spirit to bring his dead child back to life.

"Okay," Kebula said in a low voice. "Then let me see how much of the King's legend is true."

Seeing that the two were about to fight, Amun retreated knowingly, making space.

He knew that Professor Kebula had extraordinary strength, and after suffering a loss just now, he realized that the spirit power blessing on Kebula exceeded his estimation.

He was also curious about what would happen in the battle between the two strong men.

Of course, Amun had absolute confidence in his duel before coming to the academy island. It's just that after fighting Fujiki You Xuan that night, this confidence had shifted to the other party.

Amun now believes that there is probably no duelist in this world who can beat the King.

"Duel!" x2

【Fujiki You Xuan, LP 4000】

【Kebula, LP 4000】

Fujiki You Xuan's first move: "I'll go first, draw."

He drew two cards from his hand unhurriedly.

"Cover a monster in the front row, cover a card in the back row, the turn is over."

Kebula pondered. A simple opening, and nothing could be seen from such a start.

"My turn, draw."

Kebula raised his eyes, and the light from his eyes was like a snake or scorpion.

"No matter what, if I don't attack, I can't probe the depth... I summon 'Venom Viper'!"

Thick scales covered the winding body, and the head on that snake body shone with fangs, hissing and spitting snake letters in its mouth.

【Venom Viper, ATK 1200】

"Venom Viper, attack the covered monster!"

Kebula ordered, and the viper rushed out, wrapping its body around the face-down card. The card flipped over, appearing as a tomato image suffocated by the snake body, struggling hard.

【Mystic Tomato, DEF 1100】

"Mystic Tomato's effect," Fujiki You Xuan said. "When this card is destroyed by battle and sent to the graveyard, special summon a dark attribute monster with 1500 or less attack power from the deck."
