Who asked him to play Yu-Gi-Oh!

Chapter 1516 The Balian World

"Bebekuta".

With Vector pinned under his foot, Drube struggled to lift his head, but as soon as he made that effort, he felt the other man's foot suddenly tighten, as if a thousand pounds of force had pressed him back to the ground.

"Hmm? Did you just say anything?"

Bekuta lazily tilted his head, pretending to pick his ear, looking incredibly irritating.

"Ugh."

At this point, Drube was already severely injured, and being trampled underfoot made it difficult for him to even breathe, let alone speak coherently.

He missed.

While Yuma and his companions were fighting Kiragu and the few Balian thugs, Drube left.

As he said before, his mindset wavered, but that didn't mean his stance immediately changed.

Whether it's a conspiracy or the machinations of thousands of lords, Drube's current identity as one of the Seven Emperors of the Balian remains unchanged. He still has to consider the Balian realm and the innocent people of Balian.

He wasn't particularly concerned about the destruction of the human world. If he had to say, the only thing he and Yuma and the others currently shared was defeating the Thousand Lords.

That's why he rushed back to the Varian Realm to find Vector directly.

He suspected that the seals on the thousands of sovereigns might have been broken, and that among the remaining seven emperors, only Vector would do such a thing. So he confronted Vector directly, leading to a verbal altercation that escalated into a card game.
And then it became like this.

When did Vector become so strong?

Druby was also horrified.

In his mind, Vector's strength should be inferior to his own. But today, Vector's strength far exceeded his expectations, and now, looking back on the whole process, it seems that he didn't have a single chance.

But this only confirmed his suspicions.

This is absolutely the power of thousands of lords.

Only in this way can we explain why Vector's strength suddenly increased so rapidly, allowing him to surpass himself so easily.

But if that's the case...
Ignoring the excruciating pain coursing through his body, as if summoning the last of his strength, Drubey managed to speak: "Vekuta, listen to me. We...we've all been deceived! In our past lives, we were...human!"

"It is because thousands of 'gods' have distorted our lives that we cry out!"

Before he could finish speaking, he felt Vector kick him in the lower abdomen. His internal organs seemed to shift, and he felt as if his body had lost all weight, sending him flying before crashing heavily to the ground.

"It's truly pathetic. Despite being one of the Seven Varia Emperors, their allegiance is so easily swayed." Vector shook his head repeatedly. "That's why I said you bunch of useless trash can't be relied on."

"You don't understand, Vector."

Drubey tried to get up, but failed and fell back to the ground.

"I have not been deceived by humans or had my thoughts changed; this is all true."

"Ugh, so noisy, so noisy! That's right."

Vector squinted and tilted his head to look at him.

"This useless fellow is of no use to the Valian world anyway. How about this, I'll absorb you, and you can continue to serve the Valian world within my body?"

Drubey's pupils contracted: "Vekuta, you..."

“Ha, the more I think about it, the better it is.” Vector smiled brightly and slowly reached out to Drubey, his five fingers spread wide.

"Then it's settled amicably. Goodbye, you useless Seventh Emperor."

He just won his duel with Drubey, so of course he's perfectly capable of doing it. Defeating Drubey and absorbing the power of the Seven Emperors will make him stronger and more perfect.

But just as his power was about to activate, preparing to absorb Drube...

Vector's expression changed drastically, and he suddenly struck out with his right palm from a distance. Wherever his palm struck, an invisible wave of energy surged forth, conjuring a dark red barrier in the void.

The next moment, white light slammed into the barrier, exploding outwards like a series of transparent ripples.

The smoke gradually dissipated. Vector held up his arms, maintaining the barrier, and frowned as he looked towards the direction from which the attack had taken place.

A pure white figure floated silently in mid-air, with long hair flowing, wearing a snow-white robe, holding a staff, and surrounded by a series of transparent magic circles nested and swirling around her.

“Monster? Elf?” Vector whispered.

You Xuan's voice drifted slowly from the air: "Hey, you can actually block an elf's attack with your bare hands? Impressive, no wonder you're a Balian."

He seemed to understand why there weren't many instances of spirits materializing and attacking each other in ZEXAL, because it wasn't necessary.

The Balian people themselves are physically capable of going toe-to-toe with high-level monsters and elves. They can easily do things like launching attacks with energy fluctuations, releasing barriers, and crushing rockets with their bare hands. There is no need to ask the elves to do these things for them.

The Silent Magician landed beside You Xuan, his expression slightly apologetic. But You Xuan just smiled and said nonchalantly, "It's nothing, I was just trying it out."

Vector is one of the top bosses in ZEXAL, so the sneak attack was just a worthwhile attempt; trying to skip the card-playing phase and defeat him directly was unrealistic to begin with.

Having narrowly escaped death, Druby struggled to look up: "You are you?"

He was secretly alarmed. This guy was ridiculously strong, but wasn't he human? Why was he here?
Vector narrowed his eyes and asked the same question: "It's you. Why are you here?"

"Why... did it just fly over normally?" You Xuan tilted his head and said matter-of-factly, "You don't seem to have any proper security measures."

He admitted that before coming, he had thought he might have to go through some trouble on the way. But when he arrived, he found that he didn't need to at all, because the security in the Varia was comparable to that of the Kaiba Corporation in the anime, where everyone could come and go as they pleased. If one was like a public toilet, the other was like a public bus.

"Hmph, interesting. You're just a human, yet you're so arrogant." Vector sneered. "You must have had a long journey from another world. I apologize for not offering you tea."

So, what brings you here?

"It's nothing, I came here to settle things with you." You Xuan thought for a moment, "But before that, I do have some questions I want to ask. For example, my dimension is the 'basic dimension,' which is probably you, Vector?"

"Oh? You already knew?" Vector didn't deny it. "So what if I did?"

"So even if my world is the center of many dimensions, even if it's the basic dimension, what do you plan to do after you occupy it?"

You Xuan asked calmly.

"After conquering your dimension? I see. Let me think about it."

Vector shook his head, pretending to rub his temples, as if he were really thinking seriously.

Then he smiled brightly again.

"Since you're so eager to know, why don't you just let me try out your dimension? Hehehehe."
