Who asked him to play Yu-Gi-Oh!

Chapter 1592 Super Magical Wave Slash
The dazzling golden light seemed to slice even the deepest darkness in the world into pieces. Then, the golden blocks seemed to burst into flames, and Yugi Muto instinctively closed his eyes. The next second, his entire aura changed abruptly, as if he had become a completely different person.

Call on behalf of others!
The legendary nameless Pharaoh, a king who stood at the pinnacle of the dueling world three thousand years ago, slowly opened his eyes, his gaze slashing at Victor like sharp swords.

For some reason, just being swept by those eyes made Victor instinctively feel a chill, and his breathing seemed to slow down.

This person is none other than the legendary Pharaoh Victor, he thought to himself.

After appearing, An Yugi did not immediately attack his opponent. Instead, he glanced at You Xuan's direction from above and smiled slightly at him, saying, "Thank you, stranger."

Yu Xuan retrieved the Millennium Puzzle from Max, which was nearly stolen, and also saved Rebecca from being used by the enemy. Although the two games and Yu Xuan were just casual acquaintances, they already owed him a great favor.

But You Xuan simply waved his hand dismissively and said casually, "Well, it's nothing, just a small favor. You guys just need to deal with that arrogant clown over there."

Dark Game smiled confidently: "That's exactly what I was thinking."

Seeing the other party's dismissive attitude, Victor's anger surged, and he sneered, "Lord Wang, you're too late now. Even if you were the legendary Pharaoh, what could you possibly do in this situation?"

"Don't get me wrong." Dark Game said coldly, "I'm not the one who's going to deal with you."

Victor: "?"

"This is my AIBO (partner) duel, not mine. He doesn't need me at all," Yami Yugi said calmly. "This guy is strong, stronger than anyone can imagine. Precisely because he's my partner and I'm always by his side, I understand this better than anyone else."

The phantom of the game appeared behind him, a hint of emotion in its eyes: "Another me."

“It’s alright, you can win. An enemy of this caliber is no match for you.” Dark Game smiled at him. “What you lack is simply the confidence to win.”

Believe in your abilities, believe in your cards, and you will never lose to anyone. I know that.

"The Other Me" takes a deep breath and gently closes his eyes.

The Millennium Puzzle flashed its light once more. After the brilliance, the personalities had switched again, returning to the game's core.

When the game resumed, its eyes were filled with unwavering determination.

“I understand, my other self. I won’t let you down. I will become a duelist in my own right. No,” he had put the Millennium Puzzle back on, instinctively gripping its chains, “I will become… a duelist king in my own right!”

Yami Yugi smiled, watching silently from behind without saying a word.

Yes, you won't lose to anyone.

And sooner or later, even I...
"."

"My turn, draw!" Yugi raised the card in his hand high, "Activate the Spell Card 'Heavenly Treasure Card'! Both players draw cards from their decks until they have six cards in their hand!"

Victor joined him in drawing all six cards, then scoffed, "You're good at drawing cards, but even if you draw a lot more, it's still a very basic deck."

"I activate the Spell Card 'Monster Resurrection'!" Yugi exclaimed. "This card can revive monsters from the Graveyard. I'm going to revive 'Dark Magician' from the Graveyard!"

A giant resurrection symbol appeared in mid-air, then disintegrated into green light energy, and re-condensed into a ghostly green six-pointed star array.

A jade-green staff swirled out from the six-pointed star magic circle, and a tall, slender magician in black robes leaped out amidst the surging storm of magic, the staff spinning in his hand like a windmill.

[Dark Magician, Attack Power 2500]

In the previous round, the only monster on the field, "Cotton Candy," was taken to the opposite side by a bull, so Victor was unable to use Crimson Swordsman to destroy the monster. Therefore, the summoning suppression that Victor was experiencing this round has been lifted.

Victor: "Heh, so you've finally summoned your ace back? But a mere mortal is still a mere mortal. Even if you bring one back, how much difference will it make to the situation?"

“Of course it’s different!” Yugi said firmly. “The Dark Magician card symbolizes the bond between me and my other self! Our bond will never be broken, and as long as this bond exists, I will never lose!”

Yes, we absolutely cannot let it be cut off.

The game's focus remained unwavering.

Even if one day in the not-too-distant future we are separated forever
They never seriously discussed it, but deep down they both knew that this day would come sooner or later.

Yami Yugi was a pharaoh from three thousand years ago, a man who should have died long ago. The deceased should return to the underworld, and their souls should find peace; separation is inevitable.

So even if it's just so that his other self won't worry about him and can travel in peace, he has to prove himself. He has to prove that even with his own strength alone, he is enough to uphold the title of "Duel King" that they earned together.

"Activate the Spell Card 'Fusion'!" Yugi exclaimed. "Fuse 'Dragon Slayer' from my hand with 'Dark Magician' on the field! Fusion Summon—"

—Super Magic Swordsman - Dark Paladin!

The game's two trump cards are a fusion of the Dark Mage and the Dragon Slayer Swordsman. This magical sword, designed specifically for dragons, combines the characteristics of both a mage and a swordsman. Not only does it boast a striking appearance, but it also consistently delivered the final blow in every appearance throughout the anime, remaining undefeated until the very end.

[Super Magic Swordsman - Dark Paladin, Attack Power 2900]

"Dark Paladin's ATK increases by 500 for each Dragon-Type monster on both players' fields and in their Graveyards!" Yugi said. "Although all the Dragon-Type monsters in your Graveyard have been banished, you still have 'Flame Dragon - Blast' on your field, so Dark Paladin's ATK increases by 500!"

[Super Magic Swordsman - Dark Paladin, Attack Power 2900 → Attack Power 3400]

Victor: "That's only 3400 attack power."

“Then activate the Quick-Play Spell ‘Burial from Another Dimension’!” Yugi said. “It can return up to three monsters from the banished monsters of both sides to their respective Graveyards.”

Therefore, I will return three dragons from your excluded dragon race to the graveyard!

The banished Dragons are practically a second graveyard card, and Victor had already banished a dozen Dragons of all sizes. The three dragons returned to the graveyard, and their Dragon Souls immediately materialized as phantoms, instantly being absorbed into the Magical Blade of the Super Magician Swordsman.

[Super Magic Swordsman - Dark Paladin, Attack Power 3400 → Attack Power 4900]

"Attack power of 4,900!?" Victor's expression changed slightly.

This number is still a bit alarming.

But it doesn't matter.

Victor scoffed inwardly.

As expected, primitive people love this kind of overwhelming attack strategy, unaware that attack power is not a decisive factor. Next round, he can either bring the Dark Paladin over or blow it up; there are countless ways to deal with it.
"Next, activate the Spell Card 'Spread Wave'!" Yugi said. "Pay 1000 Life Points, target one Spellcaster monster on your field, and attack all monsters on your opponent's field this turn!"

[Game, LP1200 → LP200]

Victor: "Ha, cavemen. I've already told you, stacking attacks and follow-up attacks are such outdated combat tactics."
What?!?

The college officials, whose reaction time was a bit slow, suddenly realized that something was wrong.

Wait, while attack power isn't that important, a five-hit combo with 4900 attack power...
Cossack Dragon takes 1300 damage when attacked, Giant Eye takes 1300 damage, Crimson Swordsman takes 1100 damage, and Flame Dragon - Blast takes an additional 1100 damage.
Total damage: 4800!

[Victor, LP4800]

Victor's expression twisted in shock as he swiftly completed the mental calculation, yet a surge of rage erupted within him like a volcano, a voice screaming from the depths of his heart—

--This is impossible!
The invincible Ben Victor Rex, an academy commander-level executive, wielding an unbeatable deck like Dragon Slayer, actually lost to a caveman!?

Using a bunch of ordinary bones and a deck of ancient cards from a museum, I'm going to lose to something like this?!

You Xuan also showed an expression of great interest.

They are all old cards, classic combos, but they exude a unique, simple beauty.

It doesn't matter if a technique is old, as long as it works.

However, one thing did surprise him. This combo felt more like Atem's ultimate move than a typical game strategy. From a game strategy perspective, Yu Xuan felt this deck was played a bit too aggressively.
But on second thought, it's not entirely incomprehensible. After all, strictly speaking, the game is currently using Atem's deck, and his own dueling style is probably still in the exploratory and conceptual stage, not yet fully formed.

Thinking of this, You Xuan unconsciously rested his chin on his hand.

Yu Xuan wondered if he could offer some inspiration for the exploration of games in advance, but he felt that the ideas he was developing were probably more suitable for game veterans.
"Super Magical Swordsman - Dark Paladin!" the game announced, "Super Magical Wave Slash!!!"

The magic swordsman raised his staff, and the spreading waves transformed into thousands of split crescent-shaped sword energies. The magical sword energy surged out and instantly tore Victor's all-star lineup to pieces!
Victor: "Are you kidding me?!"

[Victor, LP4800 → LP0]
