Is this the world of Yu-Gi-Oh? Ada thief!

After tidying up the cards on the duel stage and putting the deck away, and walking down the stairs of the duel stage, Hayato came to Yugi and the others who had been waiting for a long time.

"Congratulations, Hayato-kun." Yugi, Kyoko and Honda congratulated Hayato for returning victoriously, and Hayato responded with a hearty smile, "You won, it was such an interesting duel."

"Congratulations, Hayato." Jonouchi also congratulated, but the expression on his face was a little strange, "But the final victory did not rely on monsters but magic cards or something. It feels so strange. Isn't this a duel monster? "

"That's not what you're saying, Jonouchi-kun. Magic cards are an important part of Duel Monsters, because monsters symbolize power, and magic symbolizes wisdom." Yugi described his understanding of Duel Monsters to Jonouchi, "The competition of strength is of course Important, but magic is also one of the keys to victory or defeat. Only those with both strength and wisdom can go further and achieve the final victory."

"In other words, 'Magic cards are part of Duel Monsters. If you don't like them, don't play them.'" Hayato summarized the meaning of the game in his own words and sighed in his heart: "When I just killed him with [Goblin Rogue], , everyone else is so innocent but I am so shady, I feel so embarrassed, but in the end, you take the game for granted, you are worthy of being the king of cheating. ’

Being able to accept "non-mainstream" victory methods so calmly, it's no wonder that the deck construction of future table games will be so hellish. I'm afraid all duelists of the same generation as Yugi will have his classic "T" spread engraved in their DNA, right?

Thinking that if he duels with Yugi in the future, he must get a [flush], Hayato noticed the other side of the duel platform, where Banjo Meshoji, who had failed in the duel, walked down in despair.

Seeing the other person walking up to him in frustration, Hayato tilted his head and asked, "Is there anything else, Banzhangme-san?"

"I will not give up the pursuit of the 'little ribbon' just like this." He cheered up a little and said harsh words, but soon became depressed again. Banzhoume Shoji sighed, "I have the honor of Banzhangme, although I really want to say that, but I am willing to admit defeat and I will give up my pursuit of Nosaka Miho."

He raised his head and looked at Hayato. He had excellent academic performance, handsome appearance, and a good family background. Even duel monsters were so powerful. Although Zhengji was very reluctant, he still accepted the fact that he had failed.

Hayato saw the unwillingness in his eyes, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke: "Well, I want to explain one thing first - did you misunderstand something from the beginning? I can't No intention of pursuing 'little ribbons'."

"After winning the duel, you still want to humiliate me without honor, Hayato Kobayashi!" Wan Zhangmu looked very excited, "How dare you say that you have no intention of pursuing Nosaka Miho? You clearly used 'still' I’ve ever touched her with a camera!”

No, you just want to pursue them after you meet them? Banjo Meshoji's strange logic made Hayato laugh: "Do you think I want to return the camera? To tell you the truth, although I think she is quite beautiful, I like the idea of ​​people wanting to fall in love with her. I don't."

"How could anyone not want to fall in love with Nosaka-san!"

Hayato turned his head in confusion. I seemed to hear that sentence in stereo? It was as if two voices were speaking at the same time.

In fact, there were really two people speaking. Apart from Banjo Meshoji, the other person who spoke was clearly Honda Hiroshi standing behind Hayato.

"Nosaka-kun is so beautiful, has a good personality, and knows how to dress up. How could anyone not like her?" Honda's current behavior is just like that of a fan who has always liked posing and was told that her breasts are padded. She is very emotional. of excitement.

"You guys, is it possible!?" Wan Zhangmu looked at Honda in astonishment.

Hayato spread his hands helplessly: "You guessed it right, it's not me who likes 'Little Ribbon', it's this guy. He was the one who borrowed the camera from 'Little Ribbon', but he didn't have the courage to return it. , so I helped him pay it back."

However, Banjo Meshoji's attention was no longer on Hayato, but looked at Honda with disdain.

"After doing this for a long time, my love rival is not Hayato Kobayashi, but a guy like you?" Covering his forehead, Wan Zhangmu looked like he had a headache, "Ah ah ah, it's so embarrassing. If I had known it was such a guy, I don’t have to be nervous from the beginning!”

"That is to say, Hayato doesn't want to chase Nosaka-san at all. From the very beginning..." Honda answered subconsciously, but he realized it halfway through, "Hey, you bastard! What do you mean? Am I not a threat?"

"Isn't it natural!" Banjome Shoji returned to the confident posture before the duel, "Whether it is academic performance, reputation in school, or appearance, I am undoubtedly above you, right?"

Kyoko watched the two "love rivals" start to play a staring game. She held her forehead helplessly and turned to ask Yugi and Jonouchi curiously: "These two guys are really...ah, by the way, Yugi , Jonouchi, do you also like Nosaka-san?"

"Well, I have a very good impression of 'Little Ribbon'. I think she is quite popular in school. However, as a girlfriend, she is not in my strike zone." Jonouchi scratched the back of his head. , "I still prefer a more mature woman, preferably a beauty with long blond hair and a good figure. If she likes Duel Monsters, that would be even better."

A beautiful duelist with long blond hair and a good figure... I suspect you are hinting at the peacock dance. Listening to Jonouchi's description, Hayato couldn't help but think of the classic pairing of Jonouchi and Peacock Mai.

"I don't think body shape is too important. When it comes to falling in love, a suitable personality is more important." Yugi also expressed his understanding of love, "As for Nosaka-san, I have the same view as Jonouchi. I appreciate it, But there was no idea of ​​pursuing it.”

"Then let alone, and we are still just students now, right? At least I don't want to fall in love until I have enough income to support the lives of two people." Hayato said, by the way quoting a famous quote from someone decades later. , "I want to become the strongest duelist, women and other things are in the way."

While the four of them were chatting, Banjo Meshoji and Honda were still arguing:

"My family is rich!"

"Who doesn't have enough money?"

"I'm very good at dueling monsters!"

"It's not like we lost to Hayato!"

"I'm more handsome than you!"

"fart!"

Hayato was a little unhappy because of the kindergarten-level comparison between the two, so he couldn't help but said: "You both like 'little ribbons', so why don't you two just go and confess your feelings to them? What's the use of arguing here?"

As soon as Hayato said this, the movements of the two people who had been chattering since the beginning immediately stopped.
