"I'm sorry." Mr. Phoenix dragged his son to the back with an apologetic expression.
"It's okay, it's okay." Yuei Vu waved his hand generously and smiled, "What an interesting kid."
As he said this, what Yuei Vu thought in his heart was: It didn't matter anyway, the future will be long, I will have a lot of opportunities to train this kid Aster…
"Actually, there is another thing I want to discuss with you this time."
Mr. Phoenix turned over this section and said instead: "Actually, we Industrial Illusions are very interested in the Elemental HERO deck you use.
To be honest, the company is also trying to develop the same series recently. My department is also in charge of it, and I have designed a similar series personally…"
Yuei Vu probably understood.
It seemed that his guess is right. According to the progress of the animation story, the HERO series was about to be published on the big stage of the Yu-Gi-Oh world.
However, the Industrial Illusions did not seem to have any doubts about why he held unofficially printed cards. Because strictly speaking, the game Dueling Monster was not original to the Industrial Illusions, but has been around since ancient times. It's just that it has become popular all over the world again in the hands of Pegasus, the president of the Industrial Illusions.
Because of the particularity of this game, the issuance of Dueling Monster cards was not the exclusive property of the Industrial Illusions.
As long as they have enough advanced science and technology or extraordinary power enough to endow cards with spirituality, other organizations and individuals would also have the opportunity to print new cards.
Even the monster spirits who came here from the world of Dueling Monsters may give birth to brand new cards by their own power.
This was also why every generation of Yu-Gi-Oh BOSS could always take out a bunch of cards that even Pegasus has never heard of.
There was another more typical example, that was, all protagonists more or less had some cards that no one has seen before…
Based on the strength of the Industrial Illusions, it was natural to find out that Yuei Vu was a cadre of the underground organization "Nightcrawler World" – even a senior cadre, so it was not unacceptable for him to have a card of unknown origin in his hand.
"Mr. Pegasus also expressed his great interest in the HERO series." Mr. Phoenix said, "If there is a chance in the future, he hopes to chat with you about the concept of card design and the views on dueling monster games."
"It would be a great honor for me if I had the opportunity to chat with the father of Dueling Monsters." Yuei Vu smiled.
Pegasus was known as the father of modern Dueling Monsters, and he was naturally the number one authority in the field of card games. If you could get in touch with this character, the benefits were self-evident.
The strong would be respected in any world, and the improvement of status would naturally bring more contacts and more resources. This could only be seen in the short few days since Yuei Vu became the Duel King.
After all, in this world, the standard for judging the strong could basically be directly linked to duel skills.
Mr. Phoenix changed the subject: "Of course, today I don't represent the Industrial Illusions, but only represent myself. And I… um… I have a slightly unkind request."
Yuei Vu watched Mr. Phoenix slowly unzip the backpack and took out a Duel Disk from the bag… He roughly knew what he was going to do.
Mr. Phoenix said seriously: "Please duel with me."
Little Aster's eyes widened, he looked at brother Yuei Vu, and then at his father, with a look of surprise on his face.
Does Dad want to fight Brother Yuei Vu!?
"It doesn't have any special meaning." Mr. Phoenix smiled slightly, "It's just that I also designed such a set of cards by myself a while ago, but I have never had the opportunity to actually fight with others.
But I think there should be no more suitable opponents than you and your Elemental HERO deck."
Of course, Yuei Vu also guessed what the "set of cards" the other party was talking about was.
Probably it should be the last HERO series left by Aster's father before his death, the Destiny HERO mentioned in the GX animation.
But if Mr. Phoenix came up with the idea of designing this deck because he saw the "Elemental HERO" used by Yuei Vu, and now he has a finished product in his hand, it meant that the Industrial Illusions must notice Yuei Vu and his HERO deck before the Battle City competition.
It should be the time Yuei Vu dueled with President Kaiba.
Otherwise, it's only been a few days since the Battle City competition ended, and it's definitely impossible to complete a set of cards in time.
Since the other party has invited them like this, Yuei Vu couldn't refuse. It's not that he was also a card addict and wanted to find someone to practice, but…
"Ding!"
"Hidden Quest triggered: HERO's Battle of Destiny!"
Sure enough, the general description of the quest also directly pointed out that the opponent's deck was "Destiny HERO", and it was unsurprisingly an optional quest. Yuei Vu could choose to accept it or refuse it on the spot.
But of course, he chose…
"Okay." Yuei Vu nodded, "I accept this duel!"
"…"
Why should he refuse?
The quest reward was clearly listed. The victory reward was a "Destiny HERO Captain Tenacious"!
Destiny HERO Captain Tenacious, Level 3, ATK 800, effect: Once per turn, during your Standby Phase: You can target 1 "Destiny HERO" monster in your Graveyard that was destroyed by battle since your last Standby Phase, if you control this face-up card when the target was destroyed; Special Summon that target.
Although the attack power was low and the effect was weak, being a completely useless card that should be put into the "unknown meaning" category…
…that was still a Destiny HERO!
New series of HERO!
This meant that Yuei Vu's card pool could be expanded again!
Of course, the premise was that Yuei Vu won this duel.
…
After a while, the two came to an open space.
They exchanged decks, shuffled the cards, inserted them back into their respective Duel Disks, and then came to the designated places facing each other.
Little Aster stood aside, watching with his eyes wide open.
"Duel!" x2
[Yuei Vu, LP 4000]
[Mr. Phoenix, LP 4000]
"It's up to you to go first." Yuei Vu smiled, "Let me see how powerful the deck you designed yourself is."
"Then I'm up." Mr. Phoenix was not polite, "My turn, draw! Then I'm going to summon this guy first, a HERO with the power to determine the future——
——Destiny HERO Diamond Dude! "
Special light and shadow effects appeared on Mr. Phoenix's venue. The tall and slender HERO flew out, swung his cloak with a clear drink, and his body was covered with sparkling diamonds.
[Destiny HERO Diamond Dude, ATK 1400]
Little Aster was quite emotional on the side.
It's coming! Dad's Destiny HERO!
"Father, come on!!!" Little Aster waved his fists and shouted desperately.
"Destiny HERO Diamond Dude." Yuei Vu smiled, "I see. Is this your HERO?"
"That's right, this is the new series I designed after getting inspiration from your deck, Destiny HERO!" Mr. Phoenix said, "Your Elemental HERO and my Destiny HERO… take advantage of today's opportunity, let's compete!
I activate the effect of "Destiny HERO Diamond Dude"! Once per turn, I can check the top card of my Deck. If it is a Normal Spell Card, send it to the Graveyard and I can activate its effect during the Main Phase of my next turn. Otherwise, I must place it on the bottom of my Deck."
Although it was a relatively random effect, as we all know, it was impossible for a true duelist to pick cards other than Normal Spell Card at this time…
…Sure enough.
"The top card of my Deck is the Normal Spell Card 'Destiny Draw'. Originally, this card needed to discard a 'Destiny HERO' as the cost to activate.
However, due to the effect of Diamond Dude, I sent this card to the graveyard, and the effect can be activated directly in the next turn without any cost. "
Not to mention practicality, the effect of Diamond Dude was quite unique.
Effects could be used directly without cost, which meant that many Spell Cards with harsh activation conditions could be activated directly regardless of the conditions.
For example, the Spell Card "Ojama Delta Hurricane" in Manjome Jun's hand in GX. Its activation condition was "This card can only be activated while 'Ojama Green', 'Ojama Yellow' and 'Ojama Black' are face-up on your side of the field", and its effect was "destroy all cards on the opponent's field".
However, if the effect of Destiny HERO Diamond Dude was used to pick the "Ojama Delta Hurricane" and send it to the graveyard, then all cards on the opponent's field could be unconditionally destroyed in the next turn.
Yuei Vu vaguely remembered that a long time ago, there was a deck specially built around the Diamond Dude, relying on his effect to activate Spell Card to clear the field regardless of the harsh conditions.
"Set a card, I end my turn."
Mr. Phoenix clenched his fists.
"Come on, Yuei Vu, you don't have to be polite, just attack with all your strength! Let me also see the strength of Elemental HERO!"
