Yu-Gi-Oh's Back Spirit System

Chapter 17: Fooling the Ancients (Two in One)

【what on earth is it? 】

Aknadi, who couldn't sleep, was in a state of confusion. He left his room, came to the window sill, and looked at the full moon above the desert, but his heart could not calm down no matter what.

["Millennium Artifact", this is the secret treasure of this country, but not many people know how it was made...] The one-eyed Aknadi is the only first-generation priest who is still serving as a priest. , and at that time, he was also in charge of the manufacturing of the "Millennium Artifact".

["Millennium Artifact" is an artifact recorded in our country's secret "Magic Encyclopedia", and is the essence of the "Dark Alchemy" volume...] Aknadi sat on a stone chair on the windowsill. , the cold marble can allow this old man with too many unbearable memories to recall his past a little more calmly, [Among the priests and soldiers who went to cast the artifact, I should be the only one who came back... That step , obviously I should be the only one who knows...]

The reason why Aknadi wanted to forge the "Millennium Artifact" was to deal with the Phoenician attack. I think back then, the Phoenicians who were no longer willing to serve the Pharaoh rebelled. Because they didn't know that the Phoenicians had been preparing for so long, the Egyptian army suffered a big loss: the Phoenicians' elephant troops were invincible and they would The Egyptian army was completely defeated - at the most dangerous time, they were only a week away from the capital of Egypt.

Seeing that the country was about to be in danger, the previous pharaoh Akkanen could only pin his hopes on his younger brother Aknadi, and Aknadi's method was to create a "thousand-year artifact".

【Artifact? Haha, artifact...] Touching the "Millennium Eye" on his face, Aknadi showed a self-deprecating smile - no one knows better than him what he did to bring these artifacts into being, [ If this is an artifact, then the god must be bloodthirsty, right? 】

Because in order to cast a "thousand-year artifact", a large number of humans need to be killed, and their blood, oil, and even souls are mixed with gold as raw materials for dark alchemy, so that the "thousand-year artifact" can be summoned from the underworld.

Yes, "summon" a thousand-year artifact, not "cast" it!

After so many years, only Akhnadi knows that the "Millennium Artifact" was not cast at all, but summoned! When human blood mixed with souls flowed into the magic circle, the door to the underworld opened, and what appeared in front of Aknadi was the stone slab with the "Millennium Artifact"... and a powerful evil god behind the stone slab!

At that time, fortunately, the evil god seemed to be injured and had not yet fully recovered, so Aknadi installed the "Millennium Eye" on himself in time and used the power of the thousand-year artifact to drive away the evil god... At that time, the evil god said "I I will come back." He has never forgotten it after so many years.

[Artifact... Does this "god" refer to the evil god? 】 Even if the cold wind blows in the middle of the night, it can't dispel Aknadi's chaotic mood. He still remembered that in that year, in order to complete the artifact that could reverse the victory, Aknadi led his army to a place called "Kleilna Village" [because some villagers there often helped tomb robbers hide in the village , and even some villagers themselves are tomb robbers. This is an unforgivable sin in our country that attaches great importance to tombs, so I chose this place to cast the "Millennium Artifact"...]

This is what Aknadi has been saying to himself for so many years, but just today, when he saw the white-haired boy in the nightmare doing (formally) exactly the same thing, Aknadi suddenly woke up.

These... are all lies that I deceived myself! Massacre is massacre, even if it is a sinner, at least one trial is needed before his life can be taken! What's more, in order to keep the secret, he not only killed the villagers, but even pushed his soldiers and followers into the mass grave...

[Since that time, can I... still be considered a priest? 】Looking at his hands, even though they are old, they look very clean. Only Aknadi himself knows how much blood these hands are stained...

A load-bearing wall in Aknadi's heart seemed to have begun to crack today. From behind the wall, Aknadi could see a ferocious face laughing crazily at him!

【I……】

When Akhnadi was questioning his own existence, suddenly, a violent energy began to erupt in the palace not far away!

"What...is going on?" Aknadi looked up and said, "That direction is the Pharaoh's palace!" 】

"Ang!" The red dragon god leapt up and hovered in the sky; at this time, another ice-possessed dinosaur raised its head from the ground. Facing the legendary Lord of the Underworld, it actually dared Raise your head and roar? !

Maybe it's because he's frozen?

"What a powerful elf... this is the phantom god of the Pharaoh!" Aknadi looked at this scene in shock, "And who is that guy? Why haven't I seen it before?!"

The more Aknadi looked at it, the more he felt that he needed to get the news as soon as possible, so he whistled into the sky, and then a dark shadow-like person suddenly knelt down behind Aknadi, and he remained motionless. He knelt on the ground like a sculpture.

"Did anyone go to the Pharaoh's bedroom tonight?" Aknadi asked seriously - obviously, he had a channel to learn about the Pharaoh's life at any time, and judging from his proficiency, this intelligence channel had obviously been operating for a long time.

"Replying to Lord Aknadi, tonight, only Lord Set went to the bedroom to see the Pharaoh."

The man in black answered calmly, but Aknadi, who usually remained calm in any situation, was stunned after hearing the news.

"Sir? Sir?" Seeing that Aknadi had never given any instructions, the man in black took the initiative to speak: "Is there anything that needs me to do?"

He had already felt that the current situation seemed to be wrong, and planned to take a task and run away quickly - he didn't want to hear something he shouldn't hear today and be killed.

"It's okay, you go down..." Aknadi waved his hand, and soon the man in black left - he was a smart man, knowing what he saw and what he didn't see tonight.

[Seth... shouldn't it be? 】

"Ang!" "Roar!"

At this time, the "Sky Dragon of Osiris" in the sky had already started to attack: the "Thunderbolt" in his mouth shot out and hit the "Frost Brachiosaurus" standing on the ground. Although the "Frost Brachiosaurus" had thick skin and flesh, it had no way to ignore this attack. It was shaky after being bombarded, but it did not passively take the beating. Instead, it gathered all the cold power in its body and spit out an ice ball, which hit the Lord of the Underworld in return!

[Is that Set's spirit? Very powerful... But it's too early to take it out now! ] When the "Frost Brachiosaurus" was attacked, Aknadi felt even more distressed than when it was hit on himself, [If you hide this card, it's completely possible... Eh? ]

But just when Aknadi thought that the two were going to fight to death, the "Frost Brachiosaurus" suddenly wailed and disappeared; at the same time, the Lord of the Underworld also returned to his own kingdom, as if these two guys were just out to play...

Such a development made Aknadi even more strange.

——————The Great Disaster of the Evil God——————

The next morning, when the Pharaoh came to the hall to face all the ministers and priests, everyone noticed that where the six high priests used to stand, there were only five people standing now, and the most outstanding young priest suddenly disappeared this morning!

However, Yugi's expression seemed very calm, as if he had known about this for a long time; until Yugi sat on the throne and Simon announced that everyone should start speaking, the high priest Aknadi asked with some doubts: "Great Pharaoh, what was the situation of the battle that took place in your bedroom last night? In addition, do you know where Set went?"

Set is not only the holder of the millennium artifact "Millennium Tin Staff" recognized as the main killer, but also an excellent general who led the most elite troops in Egypt. His sudden disappearance often means a lot of things.

Among them, Aknadi was the most nervous among all people - what others didn't know was that Set was his biological son, and Aknadi was also the younger brother of the previous Pharaoh Akkanan. Theoretically speaking, Set also had the qualifications to inherit the throne of Pharaoh.

After years of operation and Set's own talent, Aknadi finally made his son the holder of the most powerful thousand-year artifact "Millennium Staff" on the surface, and also let Set control the military power. Originally, as long as he waited for the right time, Set's becoming Pharaoh was almost a foregone conclusion.

But just last night, Set suddenly went to find the Pharaoh alone, and he disappeared the next morning! This news was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for Aknadi. The high priest escaped on the second day after the Pharaoh ascended the throne, which made Aknadi's heart, which had been hanging, suddenly tighten.

[Could it be that Set has already married the Pharaoh...]

In order to prevent the previous Pharaoh, Akanadi's brother Akkanan, from eliminating Set, a big/trouble that could threaten his son's succession, Akanadi never announced the fact that he had descendants; at the same time, Set has always been considered a representative of civilian priests. In his heart, Set has always believed that his father has died gloriously on the battlefield for the country.

It is precisely because of this that Akanadi has been walking on thin ice when making his own plans. The person he has always been most worried about is actually Set himself! Akanadi is very worried that Set will swear allegiance to the current Pharaoh because of the preferential treatment of Pharaoh Akkanan's family.

In this case, his plan will be ruined.

The disappearance of Set this morning, combined with his secret visit to the Pharaoh last night and the strange elf battle, whether the young Pharaoh discovered something and used the elf duel to deal with Set in advance; or Set had sworn allegiance to the Pharaoh last night and exchanged the elves of both sides, and today he went to perform a secret mission, all of which were not good for Aknadi.

[I hope it was just because of the battle last night that he was in low spirits, or sick...] Aknadi prayed in his heart, while looking at the Pharaoh on the throne with his one eye.

"..." Faced with Aknadi's inquiry and the countless pairs of eyes in the hall, Yugi was silent for a while, and then he sighed and said: "Priest Seth, because of being affected by the evil spirits in the darkness. Last night, Priest Seth came to me looking for a way to break the evil spirit after he couldn't stand the torture of the whispers of evil spirits. However, when I couldn't break it using the 'Millennium Building Blocks', Priest Seth suddenly came to me. He attacked me crazily... Of course, after regaining some consciousness, he chose to self-exile."

"What... self-exile?!" When they heard the news, both the members of the priesthood and the ordinary ministers and nobles were surprised - they had long heard that the "Thousand-Year Tin Rod" was easy to possess because it was mainly used for killing. It drove him crazy, but no one could have imagined that Seth, who was so strong, would also suffer from this!

"..." Aknadi said nothing and silently pulled his collar - he actually did not completely believe what the Pharaoh said.

"So, the strange demon last night was the source of the temptation for Priest Seth to fall?" Isis said with a look of disbelief: "This...how could Seth...he is obviously so strong... …”

"No one can predict their own future, Isis." Mahad closed his eyes in pain, and then said: "Even your 'Millennium Jewelry', the future you see is not completely correct. Yes, isn't it? That demon can fight the phantom god without losing. Such a being... Seth is probably in danger..."

Isis stopped talking. She and the other priests prayed sincerely, hoping that Seth could find himself in this self-exile.

Seeing this scene in front of him, Yugi actually felt a little sorry for these priests.

Because he remembered the conversation between Haima and himself last night:

————The Swing of Memories——————

"So, Yugi, this will not only give me a chance to act alone, but it will also make the army and priests in the royal city nervous, so that they can be mobilized in the future. If I'm lucky, it can also make the time bomb in the priest group go away." Jumping out on your own is a plan that kills three birds with one stone.”]

["The idea is good, but how do you make everyone believe that you are controlled by the devil?\
