Yu-Gi-Oh! Starting from Duel City

"Hey, has it always started? This fateful duel..."

On the left is Xiaomi, who is unfolding the dark shadow prison to block others from exploring the field of vision, and on the right is Wei'er, who is also raising her hand to release the hidden magic.

On a high cliff a little distance away from Rafilu and Wang Xiang, You Ling, who was lurking nearby with the help of the power of the elves, looked at the man in the Valley of Death from a height with pleasure. On the ring-shaped field in the center, there were figures of two people dueling.

After Rafiru's turn ended by discarding all the cards in his hand at the beginning, it was Wang Yiang's turn next.

Facing the Doma cadre who didn't play his cards according to the routine, and seeing how he was still not planning to activate the [Oliha Gang's Barrier], even though he had deep doubts in his heart, he didn't intend to do it. Stop here.

In order to defeat the Doma Organization, in order to bring Dazi who was behind the scenes to justice, in order to continue to retrieve the memories of the past, he cannot lose here no matter what!

"The attack power of [Winged Phantom Beast·Chimera] is 2100 points. This attack power value is enough to destroy ordinary monsters!"

Raising his arm to point at the card covering Rafiru's field, Wang Xiang waved his arm and gave him an attack command: "It's time to fight, come on! Chimera, give me the monster on Rafiru's field. Destroy it! Chimera Crash!!!"

--Roar! ! !

After receiving the order from Wang Xiang, the four-legged beast immediately rushed towards Rafilu's location, and at the same time waved the sharp claws in his hands, intending to tear the monster in defense position to pieces. Into fragments all over the sky.

However……

Just when it launched its attack, the monster that was originally covered suddenly turned over and used both arms to hold down the head of [Winged Phantom Beast Chimera], forcing it back to the ground. He threw it back to Wang Xiang hard.

Shocked by this unexpected scene, Wang Xiang couldn't help but subconsciously widened his eyes: "...Nani?!"

"What a pity, nameless Pharaoh... The defense power of the monster [Backup Guardian] attacked by you is 2200 points, which is exactly 100 points higher than the attack power of your fused Chimera, so in At this moment, you will receive 100 points of counter-injury!"

After making such a declaration calmly, Rafilu stretched out his arm towards Wang Xiang at the same time: "This level of attack is useless to me! Attack me with all your strength!"

"...Well, the round is over!"

(Muto Game LP: 4000→3900)

He suffered a hidden loss as soon as he came up. While Wang Xiang suddenly gritted his teeth, he keenly noticed the abnormal state that happened to Rafiru.

The moment he launched the attack, an inexplicable elf aura seemed to emerge from Rafilu's body.

What exactly is this abnormal state...

"Next, it's my turn... According to the effect of the previously activated sustainable magic card - [Guardian's Treasure Book], I can draw two cards from the deck during the card drawing phase!"

Pulling out two brand new cards from the deck, Rafilu then inserted one of the cards into the backfield area of ​​the duel plate: "I target the [Backup Guardian] on my field. Activate the equipment magic card in your hand - [Gravity Ax - Roar]! The monster equipped with this card increases its attack power by 500 points, and as long as this card exists on the field, the opponent will not be able to change the position of the monster on the field. form."

The double-edged giant ax responded to Rafilu's movements and appeared in the hands of the [Backup Guardian] crouching on the field at this moment.

After that, Rafilu showed the last card in his hand in the direction of Wang Xiang: "It's not over yet! When I have [Gravity Ax - Roar] on my field, it is in my hand. The last card in the card can be specially summoned directly to the field!"

"...Come out! [Guardian Graal] (Dinosaur/Earth/5 stars/Attack: 2500/Defense: 1000)!!!"

Following Rafilu's movements, a sturdy dinosaur man suddenly appeared in front of him along with the spreading light.

Although there is only a 5-star level monster on the stage at this moment, this "Guardian" monster has a powerful strength that surpasses the [Winged Fantasy Beast Chimera] on the King's Field!

"[Guardian Graal] is a monster guided by [Gravity Ax - Roar]. At the moment he appears, I activate the effect of [Backup Guardian] to transfer the equipment magic card on him to the field. On another monster!"

"Go back to where you should be, [Gravity Ax - Roar]!"

The giant ax that originally existed in the hands of the guardian, at this moment, suddenly flashed into the hands of the corresponding guardian monster on the field of Rafilu.

Graal, who raised the weapon in his hand high and held his old friend tightly, looked up to the sky and let out a threatening roar.

[Guardian Graal] Attack power: 2500→3000

"Attack power... 3000?! It's the level of the Blue Eyes White Dragon!"

Witnessing the changes in the attributes of the monsters on Rafilu's field, Wang Xiang subconsciously let out an exclamation from his mouth.

On the other side, Rafilu, who had completed the start of this round, also waved his hand to enter the combat stage of the current round at this time: "Go! [Guardian Graal]'s attack, a decisive slash!!!"

Waving his arms in the direction in front of him, Rafilu gave the order to attack the monsters on the field without hesitation.

At the same time as his words fell, the sturdy [Guardian Graal] also took advantage of the situation and took up the double-edged ax in his hand. With a swift blow, he chopped the monsters on the king's field into pieces that filled the sky. Golden light spots.

Of course, when the monster was destroyed, Wang Yang also suffered 900 points of damage equal to the difference in the attack power of the two monsters.

(Muto Game LP: 3900→3000)

"Hmm... At the moment when [Winged Fantasy Beast Chimera] was destroyed, I activated the last word effect it possessed and specially summoned [Baphomet] as one of the fusion materials in the graveyard (Defense: 1800) !”

Instead of the Chimera that was destroyed by Rafilu's monster, the demon with wings on its back appeared in front of Wang Xiang's body in a crouching posture, becoming the last shield to protect him.

Seeing Wang Xiang specially summoning the monster to the field in defense position at this time, Rafilu narrowed his eyes and asked: "What's wrong, Yugi? I can't let my 'Guardian' go to this level. Deck, take any damage! Is this the only level of your attack?"

"Guardian deck...I see, is this the name of your deck?" Wang Xiang asked as Rafilu's confession echoed in his ears.

"That's right, whenever I encounter a crisis, these 'guardian' monsters of mine will risk their lives to protect me." Rafilu stretched out his arms towards the void in front of him and used a He continued in a matter-of-fact tone: "Of course, I will do my best to protect these monsters!"

"You said... you will protect monsters?" Unable to understand what Rafilu meant for a while, Wang Xiang couldn't help but frowned: "What do you mean? What do you mean by these words?"

"Huh, don't you understand? Then let me take this opportunity to tell you the extent of the ties between me and these monsters!"

"What nonsense are you talking about, Rafilu... Isn't it natural for a duelist to trust the cards and decks that serve as their servants?"

"Really? Then Yugi...please look at these cards of mine carefully."

Without directly refuting Wang Xiang's question, Rafilu reached out and picked up the cards placed on the duel plate, holding them up in front of him and displaying them.

"What?! These cards... why are they so old? They are all worn out..."

With his extraordinary eyesight, Wang Xiang keenly noticed the scars on the cards in Rafilu's hand.

Those are the traces left by the years, the proof of battle that can only be left after years of use over a long period of time.

Obviously, these cards have been with Rafiru for a long time.

"Seeing how worn these cards are, you should know how long they have been with me, right?"

Shaking the card in his hand, Rafilu continued: "Of course, in order not to be mistaken for making passwords on the cards, I have refurbished the backs of these cards. From the back, these cards look like new ones. There’s no difference in the cards.”

"In addition, the fact that these cards have supported me for so many years will not change because of this. It is precisely because of the help of these cards that I can successfully survive in the abyss of death..."

"What?"

Noticing the feeling of sadness lingering around Rafiru at this moment, Wang Xiang couldn't help but widen his eyes.

Is it possible that this man is not the heinous being he thought he was, but has a complicated past of his own?

"Yugi, no... the nameless Pharaoh!"

Changing to a more accurate title, Rafilu temporarily put down his arm and continued in a light tone: "Ever since I learned about your existence, I have always had a special emotion for you... As As a person who has also been tricked by fate, I see in you a trait that is the same as mine."

"A...trick of fate?"

Noticing the keywords contained in Rafilu's words, Wang Xiang couldn't help but narrowed his eyes.

From the moment he decided to participate in the Duel City Tournament, he had already made up his mind to retrieve his past memories at all costs.

However, the twist of fate is that there are always various accidents happening on the way to find memories.

Until now, Wang Yang will be unable to continue his original goal until the series of events caused by Doma are resolved.

As long as Dazi's interference is still there, the stone slab recording the "Ritual of Duel" scene in the Tongshi Noshi Museum will always be sealed by crystal...

Moreover, the three God Cards that are closely related to Wang's memory are also in Dazi's hands at this moment.

Whether it's love or reason, there is bound to be an earth-shattering final showdown between him and Dazi!

"This wilderness place called 'Death Valley' is very similar to the place where my monsters and I lived in the past... this place. It's like an uninhabited island floating on the land."

Rafilu glanced around the surrounding environment with a reminiscence expression on his face, and then told Wang Xiang about his past experiences.

Rafilu was originally a noble child born in a wealthy family, and he also had young and lovely younger brothers and sisters.

However, on a birthday when he was a child, while cruising on a luxury cruise ship with his family, he passed by the range of an undersea volcanic eruption and an accident occurred.

Except for Rafiru himself, everyone else was killed or missing (the murderer behind this accident was actually Dazi, and the reason why he did this was to make Rafiru his subordinate).

Before his family was killed, Rafiru got the "Guardian Aitos" card that his sister Julia and his brother Sonia had obtained after searching for it.

Rafilu, who survived, lived alone on an isolated island in the sea for three years. During this period, he developed an extremely strong bond with his "Guardian Aitos" and other card elves.

Although Rafiru was finally rescued by a ship passing by the isolated island and returned to his home, due to the disappearance of his family and the confiscation of his property by relatives, he became deeply confused and tired of the world.

Under the guidance of Dazi, Rafilu subsequently joined the Doma organization and became the first Doma swordsman in this era.

Because of the experience of sharing hardships together on an isolated island, Rafilu cherishes his cards very much.

Even if the cards are severely worn, put new card backs on them instead of replacing them.

In the duel, Rafiru and his monsters protect each other. Rafiru will never send his monsters to the graveyard, and he will keep the monsters on the field even if he sacrifices his own basic points.

Even Wang Xiang couldn't help but be moved by this strong bond with the monster.

…

"That's it. When I was alone on a desert island due to a sudden accident, it was these 'Guardian' cards that barely supported my spirit, which was going crazy due to loneliness."

Looking at the deck of cards placed on the duel plate, Rafilu's eyes showed an inexplicable nostalgia: "They are both my friends and my family..."

The aura that has been surrounding Rafiru since just now is actually proof that his monsters want to protect him.

Faintly seeing the figure of a certain "angel" emerging behind Rafilu, Wang Xiang asked doubtfully towards the "collection of contradictions" on the opposite side: "Rafilu, since you have such a strong attachment to cards. Why should I help Thomas if I love you so much?”
