Who asked him to play Yu-Gi-Oh!

Chapter 1654 The Phantom Dimension
System connection established, now operational!
Having transformed into a projection of his consciousness, You Xuan slowly landed on solid ground and opened his eyes.

"Is this the world of the Divine Flame Emperor?" You Xuan murmured.

Although the demons don't always gather in one place in the elven realm, they are still friends who keep in touch and at least have a basic ability to sense each other.

You Xuan originally imagined that the realm of the Divine Flame Emperor was something like a deep red inferno, surrounded by a sea of ​​crimson fire, and perhaps even charred skeletons.

But no. Contrary to his expectations, it looked like a barren wasteland, seemingly quite normal at first glance.

The vampire heiress helped him look into the distance, and after a moment she turned and reported, "There's a village about two or three kilometers ahead, it's not too far."

You Xuan said, "Then let's go take a look."

Having just arrived, he didn't have a specific destination in mind. In short, he had come for the Divine Flame Emperor, and finding the nearest inhabited area to learn about the local situation was the best course of action.

He figured that since it was the abode of the Divine Flame Emperor, an existence like the Illusion Demon wouldn't be unknown; most people in this dimension should have heard of it. Asking around in that village might yield information about the Divine Flame Emperor.

As soon as he approached the village, You Xuan noticed that people were looking at him.

A human who appeared to be working at the village entrance put down his tools and his gaze was clearly fixed on the duel disk worn by You Xuan.

Then the man's eyes lit up and he immediately shouted, "Duelist! A duelist has arrived!"

As soon as he spoke, a large number of people quickly surged out from behind him.

Those people were dressed in a retro style, like those in a medieval village, and included both young and old, and they were quite enthusiastic.

Especially when they heard You Xuan say that the duelist was from outside, the villagers all showed reverence, as if they were seeing a worthy hero.

Some people immediately and enthusiastically invited him to come in as a guest, while others offered him some unfamiliar local food. However, this was not the purpose of You Xuan's trip, so he naturally declined for the time being. But the locals' hospitality saved him a lot of trouble. He was thinking about how to start a conversation to find out about the local situation, but before he could speak, a sudden change occurred.

In an instant, a thunderous explosion resounded through the clouds.

From afar, a red dragon shadow appeared in the sky at the other end of the village, emitting a thunderous roar, and the flames burning in its mouth shot straight into the sky.

Although it was only a blurry outline, it was already clearly the object that You Xuan was looking for on this trip.

Divine Flame Emperor Uria!

The image was fleeting, vanishing like a ghost in an instant.

But that was enough to cause a sensation among the villagers.

"Phantom!"

"The ominous phantom demon! It's here again!"

The villagers, who had just been gathered there so enthusiastically, scattered like birds in the blink of an eye, each returning to their own homes and slamming their doors shut and locking themselves. The entire street became spotless in the blink of an eye.

However, everyone had vanished in an instant, leaving a figure standing out conspicuously at the end of the village road. It was a cute little girl, who by human standards looked to be no more than ten years old. She looked soft and cuddly, and was standing blankly at the village entrance, looking up at the spot where the illusory figure had just flashed by.

"Saya!"

Just then, a frail old man rushed over, grabbed the little girl, and dragged her inside, muttering, "Didn't I tell you before that you should stay inside at times like this and not run around?"

The little girl named Saya looked dejected, but she didn't say a word. Like a delicate doll, she bowed her head and followed the old man into the house.

You Xuan instinctively felt that these two people probably had a story, and perhaps knew some information about the Divine Flame Emperor, so he stepped forward.

"Old man, was that the Divine Flame Emperor just now?" The old man was shocked upon hearing the name and hurriedly gestured for him to speak softly, as if he was afraid that the Illusion Demon would hear his name and come looking for him.

He glanced around cautiously, then lowered his voice and asked, "So you're the duelist from out of town?"

You Xuandao said, "I am."

"Then come in first." The old man seemed unwilling to stay outside for even a second longer. "We'll talk inside."

Upon entering the old man's house, the interior was just as simple as it appeared from the outside; it was a typical farmhouse, yet it exuded a strong sense of life.

The old man brought out a simple meal, but You Xuan declined. He wasn't there to freeload, and besides, he was currently in a consciousness clone state and had no need to eat. He simply went straight to the point and asked about the Divine Flame Emperor.

The old man dared not call the Divine Flame Emperor by his name directly, and only dared to refer to him as "Illusion Demon".

You Xuan said, "I see you all seem terrified of that Illusion Demon. Could it be that this village has suffered from the Illusion Demon before?"

He knew that in the background stories, the Phantom Demon was mostly known as an evil god, and was often portrayed as a villain who would destroy the world.

The old man said, "That's not it. It's just that the Illusionary Demon is a rumored ominous being, and everyone keeps their distance from it. This teaching has been passed down from our ancestors."

The little girl named Saya retorted angrily, "Uria isn't a bad child! She's never done anything bad!"

Yu Xuan was taken aback: "Yu Liya?"

The name sounds like a girl's name, but it does bear some resemblance to the title "Uria" of the Divine Flame Emperor.

Upon hearing this, the old man's expression suddenly changed: "I've already told you not to mention that name again."

Saya pouted, looking aggrieved, and remained silent.

The old man sighed and began to tell You Xuan the story in detail.

Many years ago, the village suffered a disaster, and many people lost their lives, including Saya's parents who were still infants at the time. Since then, Saya has lived with her grandfather.

Saya was frail and sickly from a young age and rarely went out, so she didn't have many friends.

Only a few years ago, a girl with red twin tails who called herself Yuria suddenly appeared.

Let's play together!

The girl had a bright smile on her face.

After that, Uria became Saya's only friend. They often played together, and Uria would tell Saya, who couldn't go out, about many wonderful things that happened outside, which made Saya, whose mood had been depressed for many years due to illness, become more cheerful.

Even more miraculously, during that period, Saya's frail health seemed to improve, and her symptoms also subsided.

You Xuan was intrigued upon hearing this.

Yuria?
Wait a minute, this name sounds familiar...
You Xuan hadn't thought of it before, but after being reminded, he remembered something.

Phantom Demon, Loli, Yuria.
correct.

Is Divine Flame Emperor Uriamo really an ancient loli?
He remembered. There was a little girl in the classic Yu-Gi-Oh! game series "Card Power" who was cute and charming with red hair in twin tails, and her name was Yasuda Uria.

This is a female NPC in the game. Her design is said to be a personified version of the god-flame emperor Uria. Her character is cute and often acts coquettishly towards the game's protagonist. In the game's story, she is even a character that the protagonist can romance.

Yes, that's right. Even the female version of the god Yan Huang can be romanced. The Card Power series truly lives up to its reputation as a card-based harem game.
