The moment Ota Yukiko’s Life Points dropped to zero, the entire arena fell silent; many didn’t even have time to show expressions of shock on their faces.
“I…
won?”
Even Elsie herself couldn’t believe it and tentatively pinched her arm.
“Oh no, it doesn’t hurt…
am I dreaming?”
Defeating a formidable enemy, saving an innocent, pitiful spirit, and witnessing Mr.
Yugi display incredible power, could it really all be just a dream?
She pinched herself again, stubbornly refusing to believe it.
“Oh no, it really doesn’t hurt…
w- w- w- what should I do?”
“That’s because you’re pinching my hand.” Yugi, who had just finished transforming and returned to Elsie’s side, shot her a helpless glance.
“Hawawawawa…!” Elsie frantically apologized, flustered.
“I’m sorry!
I’m really, really sorry, Mr.
Yugi!”
“Forget it.” Yugi shrugged.
Since he was now a duel spirit, a few pinches were nothing; even getting into a scuffle with the female Hanma across the arena wouldn’t be a problem.
“You, on the other hand, stand tall and embrace the glory of the victor.”
At this moment, Tour Guide, acting as the host, finally reacted and quickly announced the duel’s result: “Truly unexpected!
In this Level 3 duel spirit plunder battle against a Level 7 opponent, the winner is none other than the newly enrolled freshman, Mutou Elsie!”
“Present!” Hearing Yugi and the guide, Elsie quickly straightened her chest and raised her head, her hands stiffly placed at her sides.
“Whoa, standing at attention now?”
Yugi’s teasing was only halfway out when a crisp shout rang: “Master!”
Little Blue spread her arms, tears welling in her eyes, and ran over as if finally embracing a life of happiness.
“Waaah, my master…”
“Little Blue!” Elsie, undoubtedly the one who understood these feelings best, felt her own eyes moisten and opened her arms to hug her.
“From today on…
huh?”
But Little Blue didn’t even glance at Elsie and dove straight into Yugi’s arms.
Elsie: “………..”
The spectators: “………..”
Though it’s common in this world for duel spirits to be taken away, it was the first time anyone had seen a duelist’s duel spirit claimed by another duel spirit.
And that duel spirit that claimed her duel spirit… New chapters come out on g.com first.
was her own.
What is this?
My duel spirit’s duel spirit isn’t my duel spirit?
“Ara…” Squinty-eyed DM Chairman let out an inexplicable sigh, “Mutou’s duel spirit really does display many abilities that subvert one’s worldview.”
“The so-called worldview is merely the conventional thinking formed after the advent of the dueling world, but just because it’s always been so, does that make it right?”
Fujiki Rin, the former Duel King watching the match, stood and began walking out as she spoke.
“If he can duel alone like a duelist, why can’t he have his own duel spirit like a duelist?”
“So, is he the one you…
no, you all are looking for?” The chairman’s gaze followed Fujiki Rin outside.
The duel spirit plunder battle was set for 10 AM, and by now it had ended just as the sun reached its zenith.
Fujiki Rin didn’t answer immediately; instead, she raised her hand toward the sky, slowly pinching her thumb and forefinger together as if she could hold the sun between them, and after half a minute of silence, she finally spoke:
“No.”
The glasses-wearing chairman smiled slightly with authority, crossed his legs in a new position, and for once straightened his torso.
“Then I’ll train him according to my own preferences.”
“Do you need my permission to train your own student?” Fujiki Rin snorted lightly.
“And I think you’re mistaken, Elsie is the one who needs training.
He doesn’t.”
………………………………….
Meanwhile, in the center of the dueling arena, Yugi glanced innocently at Elsie while Little Blue buried herself in his arms, then reached out to stroke her head.
“Yoshi, yoshi, yoshi…”
“Hehe, master…
my master.” Little Blue, like a cat, squinted her eyes in pure enjoyment.
For some reason, Elsie looked on from the side with envy.
At this moment, as Yugi was petting Laundry Dragonmaid, his mind thought: “Hmm, now that there’s an official Little Blue, I can’t keep calling Elsie “Little Blue clone” anymore…”
He glanced at Elsie, biting her fingers with a longing expression, then at Little Blue rubbing against his stomach, carefully analyzing the difference between the two.
Finally, he clapped his hands: “Perfect.
From now on, Elsie will be called “Aqua clone”.”
Elsie: ?
?
?
Before she could ask who Aqua was, Ota Yukiko across the arena staggered to her feet.
“Impossible!
How could I lose to someone like you…
give me back Little Blue!” Find the original chapter at g.com.
Her eyes were bleeding tears, looking utterly out of place, yet she charged forward, snapping and clawing.
“Whoa, you lost a duel and refuse to accept it, now trying to fight?
Seems like you haven’t had enough shoryukens.” Yugi couldn’t tolerate it any longer.
“In the world of Yu-Gi-Oh!, we settle things with duels.
Girl, what you’re doing is super low, you do realize that, right?”
While he was still striking a pose, Little Blue shot forward like an arrow released from a bow, forming a superhero stance as she charged straight at Ota Yukiko.
“You…
will not bully my master!”
She came at Ota Yukiko like a force of primordial life itself, ramming a rocket-like headbutt straight into her chest.
A series of pig-like screams echoed as the female Hanma spun backward three and a half turns and slammed into the wall beside the dueling arena, collapsing half of it.
“Ah, as expected, even a reincarnation of Hanma Yujiro can’t defeat a duel spirit.”
Yugi looked on, speechless.
Don’t be fooled by Little Blue’s earlier pitiful, defenseless act; that was just her personality.
She was still a dragon.
Even if she wasn’t as strong as a Blue-Eyes White Dragon, her individual combat power was far beyond any human’s.
While he was thinking this, Little Blue flew back with a goofy grin, seemingly about to dive into Yugi’s arms, but another figure beat her to it, crashing directly in front of him.
“Mr.
Yugi!
Mr.
Yugi!” Elsie’s small face shone with expectation.
“I worked really hard in the duel too, didn’t I?”
“Uh, yeah…
pretty good.” Yugi answered instinctively.
“Then please, pet my head too!” Elsie slightly lowered her head, letting her waterfall of blue hair brush toward him.
Little Blue, a step behind, puffed up her cheeks at the sight.
“What kind of cheesy storyboard is this?”
Yugi rolled his eyes.
With his left hand he petted Elsie, while with a single motion, he pulled Little Blue over too, resuming the cuddles.
Rather than framing it as “Elsie the third wheel, Little Blue the bitch”, it was better to go straight into the world-famous painting “You Came at Just the Right Time”.
As for starting a harem?
Please.
No one could seriously get lewd over Little Blue and Aqua.
If they could, that person would be a god.
Watching the “cozy, happy scene” in the dueling arena, Jounouchi Mai in the stands rolled her eyes: “Who’s the master and who’s the duel spirit here again?”
