Chapter 93

~8 min read 1,472 words

Dark Duelist Titan, although he claims to be a Dark Duelist, in reality, he was exposed by Yucheng Shidai during the duel as just a charlatan.

He relies on hypnotic-like means to make his opponents mistakenly believe it is a Dark Duel where they bet their souls, and he likes to forcibly take away the opponent's rare cards after the duel.

Such people are generally not recognized as true Dark Duelists in the industry, but rather as "Rare Card Hunters," a type of person who is shouted at by everyone, whether in the light or dark circles.

In the plot, Titan was hired by Teacher Chronos to come to the island specifically to deal with the underachieving Yucheng Shidai, which is also the biggest black mark in the persona of the Greed Professor.

However, judging from his attitude toward Dark Duels in the Seven Stars arc and his reaction when he met Titan for the second time, the Greed Professor at that time should not have believed at all that such a thing as a Dark Duel existed in the world; his main purpose was still to make Yucheng Shidai drop out.

"Oh oh, what a rare opportunity, classmate Fujiki You Xuan, do you want to duel?" Yucheng Shidai's card addiction flared up, "I've long wanted to see when there would be a chance to duel..."

"Eh? Here?" Hayato scratched his head, "That's not good..."

Marufuji Xiang: "Speaking of which, I heard that if you are caught trespassing in a restricted area, you will be expelled. Big Brother, should we go back..."

"It's fine." Yucheng Shidai put his hands on his hips, inexplicably confident, "Look, even a good student like classmate Fujiki You Xuan is here, isn't he?"

Fujiki You Xuan thought to himself, no, even if I were caught, I would probably be fine. The only ones who would be expelled are you guys...

In the anime, Yucheng Shidai and the others and Asuka were clearly caught trespassing in the restricted area together, but in the end, only Yucheng Shidai and the others faced punishment. Asuka took the initiative to apply to the principal to share the punishment with Yucheng Shidai and the others, but was rejected.

Duel Academy is a place where strength and grades determine everything.

Besides, he actually has the class representative's contact information, which is equivalent to having someone on the school board, so it's really not that easy to get expelled.

Another sound of a branch being stepped on rang out behind them.

"Wooah! This time the ghost really appeared!" Hayato and Xiang hugged each other again.

However, when they followed the sound and turned their heads to look, this time it was Asuka.

"You guys?" Asuka was very surprised, "Why are you here? And..."

She looked at Fujiki You Xuan strangely.

"Aren't you from the Yellow Dorm? Why are you with Yucheng Shidai and the others..."

"Just a night walk, ran into them." Fujiki You Xuan said.

"This is not a place for a walk." Asuka said sternly, "Haven't you heard? Many students have gone missing in this place!"

"Heard about it, that's exactly why we came to explore." The thick-nerved Yucheng Shidai laughed, "Those are just rumors, right? It's fine."

"It's not a rumor." Asuka said seriously, "Many students have really disappeared in this place. And this place is off-limits; if the school finds out, it will cause a commotion."

Yucheng Shidai was honey-confident: "Heh, if you're afraid of things like this, you can't explore."

"Listen to me seriously!" Asuka was a little angry, "This is a very serious matter, not a place to play."

"What's wrong, you're the one, why are you here so late?" Yucheng Shidai asked strangely.

"Forget it, do whatever you want."

Asuka snorted, turned around and walked away, but stopped after a few steps and took a deep breath.

"Among those missing students... is my brother."

After saying that, she left without looking back.

Yucheng Shidai put away his smile and frowned in thought.

"Big Brother, the thing about the old dormitory... it doesn't sound like it was made up." Marufuji Xiang whispered.

"Yeah. It's okay, we'll know once we go in and see." Yucheng Shidai said as he crossed the blockade line and glanced at Fujiki You Xuan, "Are you coming too?"

Fujiki You Xuan shrugged and followed.

The spirit's reaction should be inside here; it wouldn't hurt to go in and see.

Of course, he hadn't forgotten that there was a Rare Card Hunter hiding behind.

Moonlight shone through the sparse clouds onto the outer walls of the dormitory, casting eerie shadows that twisted and deformed at times, and stretched and spread at others.

The man pushed open the old wooden door and walked slowly into the dilapidated dormitory. He was strikingly burly, wearing a wide black robe and a top hat, a cross-section metal mask covered half his face, and his Duel Disk was of the rare style mounted on his chest.

The Rare Card Hunter who claimed to be a Dark Duelist, Titan.

Today he came for this student named Yugi Yucheng Shidai.

The interior of the old dormitory was exceptionally eerie. Dilapidated beds, tables, and chairs were scattered all over the floor, covered in thick dust and spiderwebs. The air was filled with a decaying scent, and gusts of cold wind blew through, bringing a series of eerie echoes.

Of course, he had also heard the terrifying rumors about this old dormitory, saying that many students had gone missing here, and that vengeful spirits were wandering around. But he naturally scoffed at this; a tough guy like him could never be scared by some ethereal ghost rumors...

"Hmm?"

Titan didn't know if his eyes were playing tricks on him.

But out of the corner of his eye, he seemed to catch a glimpse of a white-clothed ghostly shadow flashing past a corner of the broken glass?

Titan was startled and hurriedly turned his head in alarm. But when he looked in that direction, he saw only the pitch-black corridor, with only the rattling sound of the broken window's empty frame being blown by the cold wind.

"Must be an illusion..."

However, just as he turned around, he inadvertently caught a glimpse of a scene that made his hair stand on end instantly.

It was only a blurry moment, but he seemed to catch a glimpse of a woman.

A woman as white as snow, in white clothes fluttering, exceptionally eerie in this dim environment. She had long white hair draped over her shoulders, and her whole body seemed to be releasing Yin energy. The sound of the cold wind blowing through the hall was like the crying of a vengeful spirit, making one's spine feel cold.

"Wooah!"

The tough guy screamed.

Titan shouted and backed away two steps, looking at that direction in horror. But when he looked closely, it was empty again, not even half a ghost shadow.

Even though he considered himself to have a firm will, at this moment he felt as if half his body had fallen into an ice cellar, and his breathing became heavy.

Mommy, the ghost story is actually true!

Such a terrifying encounter, such an eerie scene, scared the tough guy's firm materialistic worldview of several decades into pieces.

Right, I heard that the vengeful spirits here are all students who went missing in the old dormitory before...

Titan summoned his courage and said tremblingly: "Um... I'm just passing by, I didn't harm you. But don't worry, when I get out, I will definitely find someone to come back and investigate, and... and... clear your names..."

After saying that, he couldn't stay any longer and turned around, wanting to run away.

The job is off, the rare card is not wanted either. This academy is extremely evil; he absolutely never wants to come back in his life.

But as Titan thought this, just as he turned around.

He saw the white-clothed female ghost stuck behind him, almost stuck to his face. His turning around was a direct, unannounced jump-scare; a burst of Yin energy rushed toward his face, and boundless fear instantly stopped his heart and lungs...

"Ahhhhhhh!!!"

"."

Silent Magician brushed aside the silver hair that her master had styled into this messy look and peeked at this man.

Hmm, seems like he was scared unconscious.

She tidied up her hairstyle, pouted unhappily, and removed the Duel Disk from Titan's body.

Actually, she wasn't very happy to do these things.

Even though she is a noble Light Magician spirit, she was actually asked by her master to play a ghost and steal decks...

Always feels like she followed a Duelist with an off-style, feels a bit like she got on a pirate ship...

Forget it, forget it.

It's just the master's task.
