Kaiba Land.
After handing the task of dealing with Siegfried over to Judai and Yusei, the two future protagonists, Yuei Vu was quite at ease.
Although in the early period of GX, Judai was relatively simple and a bit unreliable except for playing cards, with the development of the story, he experienced a lot, and he has fully grown into a mature and reliable duelist who can stand on his own.
It was needless to say about Yusei. He has been a reliable image of a cold-faced cool guy since he appeared on the stage. He belonged to the type of people who did more and talked less.
…Oh, by the way, he was also a black technology geek, and he was even very good at fighting.
This was why Yusei was so popular among the protagonists of Yu-gi-oh.
After all, everyone loves mature men who are cold on the outside and hot on the inside.
So after handing it over to them, Yuei Vu didn't ask about Siegfried anymore.
There should be…no problem, right?
The first duel was over, and Yuei Vu, who has successfully advanced, was now patiently waiting for the organizer to inform him of the location of the next duel, while…
…Waiting for Chika-chan to go to the bathroom.
In all amusement parks—especially an amusement park on the first day of opening, the most disappointing place may be the women's restroom where the line stretched as far as the eye could see…
According to legend, there was once a young girl who was queuing in front of the toilet in an amusement park. After waiting for a long time, the line did not move. She couldn't help but ask the aunt in front how long she had been queuing.
But the aunt gave her a blank look and said with disdain: "New here? I was as young as you when I first came."
"…"
It's scary.
However, Yuei Vu was not idle while Chika was queuing up. He found a small shop and planned to buy some drinks casually.
After all, playing cards required a lot of talking, which made it very easy to get thirsty.
Yuei Vu took two bottles of drinks in the store – by the way, he also brought a bottle for Chika. As soon as the choice was made, the Dark Magician Girl came up and said, "Master, master! I still want to eat that stick from last time!"
Yuei Vu looked in the direction her little finger was pointing at and saw the popsicles in the refrigerator.
Yuei Vu thought about it.
It's rare for her to come out, so I should buy it for her.
After all, I'm such a good master.
Yuei Vu went to the counter to check out drinks and popsicles. The aunt behind the counter raised her head and glanced at the well-behaved Dark Magician Girlrl following him. She seemed to understand this as some kind of cosplay.
Hearing the Dark Magician Girl calling "Master" intimately, I don't know if the aunt wanted to mess up something, but she just shook her head: "Oh, it's nice to be young. People like you have a lot of fetishes…"
Yuei Vu's face was darkened.
Aunt, have you misunderstood something?
This is my spirit, do you understand?
The kind of partner who was used to playing cards, not to warm the bed!
Then Yuei Vu caught a glimpse of the special souvenir for the opening of Kaiba Land in the store—a Blue-Eyes White Dragon key chain and unexpectedly felt that the design seemed to be pretty good, so he asked the aunt for the price and wanted to buy one as a souvenir.
Maybe it's because of Charisma 95. The aunt's attitude was quite good. She enthusiastically expressed that he was a lucky customer, and the key chain was given to him without charge.
That enthusiastic attitude reminded Yuei Vu of the kind cafeteria lady who always liked to give him a few extra pieces of meat when he was a student…
But the design of the keychain was really beautiful —in fact, all the Blue-Eyes White Dragon-related peripherals of the Kaiba Corp were pretty good.
Yuei Vu guessed that if there was any white dragon that did not look good, its designer might be directly fired by the president…
While eating the big, hard, and cold popsicle, the Dark Magician Girlrl watched curiously as Yuei Vu fiddled with the keychain.
"What's wrong?" Yuei Vu noticed her gaze.
"No…it's nothing." She held up her magic hat and whispered, "Because Master often… often pulls out the Duel Disk, I thought that Master is not interested in anything other than the Duel Disk…"
Yuei Vu: "…"
Do even my own spirit partners have this impression!?
Moreover, Yuei Vu thought that he didn't always pull out other people's Duel Disks, but only occasionally did it to punish those who used duels to commit crimes…
…well, except for Paradox's awesome future Duel Disk. That he probably did have a little bit of a desire to…
But… can that be called robbing?
Yuei Vu felt that it was necessary for him to correct his spirit's improper use of words.
After all, language was a very artistic thing, and sometimes you had to learn to use appropriate and reasonable words.
For example, an eminent monk should never marry for life. However, if you asked the monk if he would occasionally satisfy his needs, the master monk may say: "Amitabha Buddha, this is called releasing life."
"…"
This was the art of language.
Yuei Vu also browsed the forum to learn about the battles in other regions of the KC competition.
To his surprise, none of the top eight players seemed to be Paradox—or anyone who looked like Paradox.
He originally thought that Paradox might participate in the competition as a player and prepare to make trouble – just as the other villains in the 5DS animation did.
But he didn't.
Could it be that Uncle Pa saw too many seafood heads gathered at the KC Grand Prix, and he succumbed to the power of cheaters?
Yuei Vu thought it should not be the case.
Anyway, this was the ruthless man who challenged the three generations of Duel Kings alone in the original work, so he didn't give up so easily.
Looking through the player forum, it seemed that no one has seen Uncle Pa.
Instead, it seemed that some players noticed that "there are two impostors among us".
Someone mentioned in the forum that they found that there were two guys in a unicorn suit and a rabbit suit in the Kaiba Land…
…without the ID on the head!
However, it did not attract too many people's attention. There were only a few players who first discovered this detail, and most of them just thought it was a small easter egg, maybe it was an NPC specially placed in the park by the game company to promote and sell their headgear fashion.
Some players also posted that they wanted to see if there was a hidden mission, and went up to challenge the NPC wearing the unicorn suit, and the other party readily accepted.
Then...
…the player was hammered into doubting his life by the other party, who only used a set of Normie cards suspected to be bought at a roadside stall…
But Paradox definitely hasn't left this era. If he left, Yusei would definitely know.
So now Yuei Vu was still paying attention here and checked the forum from time to time to see the situation.
All the players in this park were his potential eyeliners. Players have always had a keen sense of "hidden plots", and they should find out quickly if there are any strange signs of trouble.
…
Bringing Chika, who had finally gone to the toilet successfully after going through all kinds of hardships, Yuei Vu also received the address information for the next duel.
This time the battle took place outside the plant-themed stadium, and his opponent was already waiting there.
It was a little loli with rose-colored long hair and bright orange eyes. Although she was not tall and looked a little thin, she had the vibe of a lady.
For some reason, Yuei Vu felt that this loli looked a little… familiar?
