Yu-Gi-Oh! Your Friends Are Fighting Out of the Underworld

Chapter 315 Rafael

The original anime, in its depiction of the legendary three dragons being awakened, has a strong hero RPG feel to it.

Of course, one could argue that card game animations don't need so many fancy elements, so the final outcome was when the 'true duelists' Pharaoh and Yugi Muto joined forces to pull out the sword stuck in the dragon's eye, thus declaring their success.

Now, Youming felt that his process should be similar to that of Pharaoh Wang—except for one thing.

"Who do you think is hanging here?"

Looking at the man who was also hanging on his 'eyes', You Ming couldn't help but scratch his head.

If it's hung together with a dragon, then it should look like the true face of the legendary three dragons—the legendary three knights, right?

The problem is that he doesn't look like he's wearing armor, not to mention his somewhat thin physique.

Just as You Ming was carefully examining the scene, an unexpected figure suddenly appeared.

His face was adorned with wild battle markings, and he wore a crown that appeared to be made of a single giant eagle. Behind him, a pair of wings spread out like those of an angel.
"Guardian - Aetos?"

But if it's this card...

"hiss."

You Ming gasped in shock; he felt he had guessed the identity of the person opposite him.

Unfortunately, before he could speak, the Goddess of the Eagle had already drawn the sword that seemed to be a seal.

The next moment, the radiance spread.

Before his vision was enveloped by that ominous six-pointed star, all Youming could see was the compassionate and earnest gaze of the guardian goddess:

"Please, save him."

"Dude, this is..."

'boom'

When he came to his senses, Youming found himself having left the castle and arrived at an even more magnificent place.

Like a stereotypical aristocratic castle, beneath the crystal chandelier, the sounds that seemed to emanate were those of an argument:

"Wait, this should be my parents' home... Julian and Sonia's home, right?"

“But there’s nothing we can do. My brother and the others are missing in the shipwreck. But it’s okay. Now that you’re back safe and sound, your uncle will take care of you. From now on, you will…”

"Huh? Are we really going to raise this bastard?"

Gazing at the classic example of someone who would eat up their family's property, You Ming fell silent.

He was quite familiar with this story:
Once upon a time, a wealthy family was on a sea voyage, but their ship was wrecked en route.

Two of the three children tragically perished, and even their parents were not spared; only the eldest son survived, stranded on a deserted island.

Faced with difficult circumstances, he struggles to live and finds hope in life by conversing with the cards he has collected every day.

After years of wandering, and finally managing to return to the place he remembered, he found that the familiar family had moved in with another family.

The man called Uncle—his father's younger brother—smiled insincerely and offered to take care of him, but never mentioned anything about the family fortune.

He didn't care about money, but he cared about his family.

But after realizing that there was no trace of her parents, brother, and sister living anywhere, her hopes were dashed.

It is precisely because of this...

"Why did this happen? Why did they all disappear? Why am I the only one who survived?!"

Finally, after those chaotic thoughts flashed before You Ming like a projector, what remained before him was that isolated island that almost never existed anywhere in the world.

"what--"

On the beach, the boy lay prostrate on the ground, his hoarse voice conveying a heart-wrenching wail.

The guardians, led by Aetos, surrounded him, seemingly wanting to say something but finding it difficult to speak.

Ultimately, guided by the green light, a desolate shadow enveloped the boy, gradually swallowing up the silent guardians and forming a demon that resembled a walking corpse.

The Grim Reaper of Darkness, the Scythe of Hell:

"Guardian - Desceth."

If the existence of the other guardians is to protect others and demonstrate the noble spirit of unity and mutual assistance, then its existence is pure darkness and negativity.

They'll stop at nothing to survive.

Or perhaps... resorting to any means necessary for revenge?
Glancing at the corpses that seemed to be lying in the green light, You Ming sighed:
"So, are you ready, Rafiru?"

The moment his name was called, the gloomy boy suddenly turned around. Although he wasn't as strong as depicted in the anime, his lifeless eyes delivered an even more somber impact.

immediately……

"kill!"

The moment the order was given, the dark guardians attacked instantly.

Give them back to me!

There was absolutely no rationality involved, and no room for negotiation whatsoever, since the person here wasn't Raferu himself.

"Is it a projection, or a manifestation of the inner self?"

Because the setting of the spirit world is very vague, Yumei cannot be sure about this.

But actually, it doesn't really matter which one, after all...

"It doesn't matter as long as we can win."

'boom'

A burst of fire erupted, and the black flames instantly blocked the massive scythe.

The jet-black dragon armor flashed by, and the surging black flame bullets exploded amidst the dragon's roar, overturning the Grim Reaper from hell.

"While I don't oppose pure violence, if that's the case, you probably won't even have a chance to fight back."

"Gu..."

So, what should we do?

Rafael provided the answer:

‘click’

He raised his hand, and the green necklace hanging on his chest flashed with dazzling light. When "Deathseth" returned, the Duel Disk appeared.

【You have a new challenger! 】

immediately……

"duel."

【Youming LP: 4000】

[Rafiru LP: 4000]

"First strike is mine—draw the card."

After glancing at the card he had drawn, Youming turned his gaze straight ahead.

His opponent—Rafiru, still a boy—had a distorted expression and was clearly enveloped by something.

To resolve his inner demons, Mr. Atem both deliberately killed the opposing Tamasietos and used the monsters on the other side to awaken his sanity.

"But unfortunately, I'm not as gentle as Mr. Pharaoh—"

'Click'

As the card was inserted, a crimson dragon's shadow appeared on the field:
"Spell Card 'Red-Eyes Foresight' - I send the 'Red-Eyes' monster 'Red-Eyes Black Dragon' from my Deck to the Graveyard, then add 'Chained Red-Eyes Fang' from my Deck to my hand, and then activate 'Foolish Burial' to send 'Red-Eyes Wyvern' from my Deck to the Graveyard."

After quickly sending the card to the graveyard, Yu Ming glanced at the red object in his hand again:

"Then, I set all four cards in my hand face down in the back row, the turn ends, and then..."

'whoosh'

Dark flames flickered across the ground.

"At the end of your turn, banish 'Red-Eyes Dragon' from your Graveyard and Special Summon 1 'Red-Eyes' monster from your Graveyard."

Of course, there is only one card that meets the criteria in his grave now.

and so……

Show yourself.

'boom'

The firelight spread, illuminating the scarlet single eye.

"Red-Eyes Black Dragon."
