Who let him play Yu-Gi-Oh!

"god?"

Merlot, who was pruning the branches of a plant, paused and slowly turned around.

"Are you sure?"

“No, it’s actually not certain.”

The subordinate in white uniform bowed very respectfully and said.

"But the members of our team on the Duel Academy Island at the time did feel that terrifying power fluctuation, which was somewhat similar to the feeling brought by the appearance of the phantom god in the past."

"So, no one actually saw the appearance of God directly?" Mello asked.

"Yes, it's just the breath."

"So let's investigate what happened? Who summoned him? And who was he fighting against?"

"Our people also went to inquire about it afterwards, but..."

The member of the association in white uniform hesitated for a moment, then spoke in a somewhat uncertain tone.

"But things are very strange. According to the clues fed back, it seems that a conflict occurred outside the Red Dormitory of Osiris. The two parties in the duel were the Duel King Fujiki Yugen and Yuki Judai from the Red Dormitory."

"A sparring match?" Mello asked. "It's a little strange to summon a god during a sparring match, but it's also possible that they're conducting a combat test. It's not impossible."

"No. But our people said that the power level of that duel was not right." The member of the association said, "Even before the existence that seemed to be a phantom god was summoned, the duel was shrouded in a powerful darkness.

That is definitely not an ordinary level of power, it is probably a dark duel of considerable degree."

"Dark Duel?"

Mello frowned slightly.

This sounds a bit strange now.

If you are just competing with friends and testing the practical use of God Cards, is it necessary to risk your life?

"Now things are starting to get a little interesting." Mello smiled.

Seeing that the member was still standing behind after finishing his report and not leaving, Mello glanced at him.

"Anything else you want to say?"

“No, just.”

The association member hesitated to speak, but after thinking for a while he spoke.

"Sir, we have just discovered that the Duel King has mastered the power of God. And the results of the association's operations at the Duel Academy have not met expectations."

This statement is a bit of an understatement, in fact, it can be described as tragic.

After their Light Society invaded the Duel Academy, the members basically only entered standing on the first day, and almost all of the rest they crawled.

It's horrible.

This academy is simply weird. The members of the association thought that they were facing a group of lambs who were ignorant of the world and the dangers of society, but they didn't know that each of them was a demon sealed in the academy island.

These students are so strong that not only do they make the professionals look like a joke, but their card playing style is just like their Duel King, and each one is more inhuman than the other.

The members of the association rushed into the academy with great confidence, and then began a long journey of GX torture. Not to mention their dismal winning rate, there have been several cases in a row where the faith of the originally firm association members collapsed and they escaped from the control of the association.

This is terrifying.

Can you believe that just by playing cards, you can beat their steadfast members of light into joining the darkness?

When the news got back to the association's headquarters, they were shocked.

At this point they had to start to suspect that there was actually a very terrifying dark force entrenched in the Duel Academy, headed by the Duel King. Similar to their association, it also had the ability to infect duelists and assimilate them to join its side.

Now, the Duel Academy seemed to them like a bottomless pit filled with terrifying darkness. Any member sent there would eventually be swallowed up by the darkness. If things continued like this, the only outcome would be total annihilation and rebellion.

"It's okay. That's good."

Mello turned around and began to slowly trim his potted plants again.

The members of the association behind were stunned: "But, the members we sent..."

"Their mission has been accomplished." Mello said slowly.

The members of the association were puzzled: "I thought their mission was to spread the teachings of light in the Duel Academy"

"Yes, it would be better if they can do it. But if they can't do it, they actually have another task."

Mello turned around and said calmly.

"I've noticed it a long time ago. The Duel King Fujiki Yugen has incredible power. Not only himself, but even the people around him and those related to him can easily be influenced by him unconsciously and infected by his power.

Maybe he himself hasn't noticed it, but this may be the secret of his strength."

The reason why he sent people to the GX Tournament was just a means of testing. However, he wanted to test more than just You Xuan's duel ability.

Like many villains before him, Mello also tried to investigate You Xuan's past. But of course, the local tyrant like the Judge who had been entrenched in the local area for more than ten thousand years could not find anything from his resume that was as clean as a blank sheet of paper, and he, a country bumpkin from another universe, naturally could not find anything.

But like the adjudicator, he also confirmed one thing.

This person is definitely not simple!

Look at his background. A young man with no talent for dueling, he was the last in a small dueling gym on the street. Suddenly one day, he suddenly had an epiphany, emerged out of nowhere, won the Moonlight Cup, became the emperor of the Duel Academy, won the title of king in the world's top competition, and saved the world.

In their card-playing world, there are precedents like this, but there are generally two biggest possibilities.

The first is that a boy picked up a 3,000-year-old building block or something similar one day, and inside it was a super-powerful old man.

The second is that the boy picked up a 3,000-year-old wheel and was possessed by the terrifying dark devil inside. The devil replaced the boy's identity, hiding among human society to accumulate strength, waiting for the day when he would rise again and devour the entire world with endless darkness.

In the current case of You Xuan, Mello felt that the latter possibility was more likely.

He took over the Light Society founded by Saiou just for the sake of not wasting resources. In fact, in his eyes, this society had no value at all, just a group of discarded pawns that could be abandoned at any time.

"Let's put the academy aside for now. How's the Fantasy Club going?" Mello asked.

The member of the society lowered his head. "The Fantasy Society is trying its best to track us down. Becas J. Krofordo has even come out in person. But it is exactly as we planned. They are being led to the false clues we arranged."

"very good."

Mello sat down and smiled grimly.

"Saiou Takuma actually planned to take away the sky to sweep away the creatures on the surface of this world. It's too naive. Military weapons are never the answer to any problem."

"The operation behind this world is hidden in the cards. The ones who truly control the core power of the world are not the countries or the military, but the Kaiba Group and the International Fantasy Society."

"If you can control them, you will have grasped the lifeblood of this world."
