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

Chapter 324 Betrayer

From the very first DM series, the master-disciple relationship between the "Black Magician" and the "Black Magician Girl" has become an excellent template, resulting in countless tributes and alternate versions:

For example, the characters "I am the magician" and "I am the girl" in Z4, and the later "Fantasy Apprentice Magician" are obviously pseudonyms.

Of course, "Illusionary Magician" and "Illusionary Apprentice Magician" are just aliases, but in the eyes of those who have actually played the game, there is another identity—the only all-around moving point of the Fantasy Demon Clan, the true eldest sister of the main family.

Of course, in a place like the Elf World, her status obviously couldn't be higher than that five with 2,500 attack power, so she must have her own set of rules.

As for his identity...

"Little Black..."

You Ming shifted his gaze from the muttering girl and looked at the Black Demon Clan girl with a sorrowful expression.

"So, senior sister, is there anything you want to explain?"

The dark magician girl looked up, a hint of sorrow appearing on her lovely face, though she seemed somewhat reluctant to speak.

"She...she is my good friend and classmate."

"classmate?"

"Yes, we grew up together, went to school together, played together, and stayed together until we became demons."

"Oh……"

Was there such a setting before?

It seems that there really was one.

After thinking about it carefully, You Ming couldn't help but recall that the 'senior sister' in front of him had described similar school facilities during his previous brief visit.

"So, she became a 'Fantasy Demon' at that time?"

"Yes, she's always been amazing. I'm a bit slow on the uptake, so I'm hesitant to learn other things, but she's able to learn complex fantasy magic and even ascend to become a fantasy demon..."

At this point, a look of longing first appeared on the girl's face, but it was quickly covered by sorrow.

"But later, as the research went deeper, she gradually changed. She became more lazy and spoke in a light, airy way, as if she were from a completely different world. In the end, she was expelled from the village by her master for trying to use the entire village as a sacrificial site, and I have never seen her since."

"……Well."

Upon hearing the brief story, You Ming's eyebrows involuntarily rose.

What to say?

"This kind of routine feels so familiar..."

What's the typical scenario where you defeat an enemy only to discover they're a former ally who went astray?
“My master said that the Demon race is the highest honor for us magicians, but at the same time, becoming a demon means that our temperament will change towards the magic we learn. The destructive desires of the Black Demon race will be unprecedentedly strong, the White Demon race listens to the voice of all things, and the Demon race worships death and darkness.”

"What about the Fantasy Demons?"

"The Fantasy Demons... For the Fantasy Demons, everything in the world is an illusion. For them, there is no clear distinction between fantasy and reality."

"That simply means living in a dream."

"..."

"You don't need to pay attention to what I'm saying."

Seeing the black magic girl's silent demeanor, Yu Ming couldn't help but wave his hand.

"The most important question is, is she connected to Orichalcos?"

"……I have no idea."

This is probably the classic standard answer, but in the standard card player's worldview, this kind of thing is nothing special.

"There will always be an answer eventually."

You Ming reached out and collected the cards scattered around the girl.

"Anyway, I'll take this for now. If the girl wakes up and wants it back, she can ask me for it."

Of course, as things stand, the apprentice magician girl called 'Little Illusion' won't wake up anytime soon, so by the time she does, I should have already had my fill of playing with all these things.

There might still be a chance to get a new one—of course, this cautious thought went unnoticed by the honest girl. "I understand, I'll tell her."

The black magician simply nodded seriously as she watched Yu Ming stuff the stack of cards into her pocket.

"Now, take her back to the village."

"And what about you, junior brother?"

"Me? Of course I'm heading to the next location. The three legendary dragons must be freed eventually."

"Then why don't we wait for Master and the others? The situation outside is not optimistic..."

"We can't wait any longer."

After all, I'm a speedrunner... Of course, saying something like that would only confuse people, so when those thoughtless words were about to come out, Yu Ming swallowed them back:

"The crisis caused by Orichalcos is no small matter, whether in the mortal world or the elven world, so the sooner it is resolved, the better."

Instead, more palatable language was used.

"Is that so? I understand... Then be careful, junior brother."

"Yeah, of course."

After a slight smile, he looked at the green dragon that had reappeared:

"Timaeus, I'm leaving them in your care."

"I see."

The dragon nodded slowly.

"Compared to you, this young girl definitely needs more help."

You Ming gave a thumbs up, saying that he truly deserved to be called the former guardian of the world, as he grasped the concept immediately.

Honestly, let alone "Eye of Timaeus," even the original "Timaeus" is completely devoid of fields and descriptions. It's pure nonsense, and even the card type is unknown. In other words, there are no search methods available, making it difficult for him to use it effectively.

However, Dark Magician Girl is a different story. Putting aside the dueling aspect, at least in terms of the power of the spirits, she has a real boost!

"Since no one has any objections, let's see where we should go next."

Then, to the dragon's astonishment, Youming pulled a die from his pocket.

What are you doing with the dice?

"Then of course we need to decide on the destination. 1, 2, and 3 will go to Critia, and 4, 5, and 6 will go to Herm.

"..."

…………

"Damn it, Rafael, what's wrong with you?!"

"Damn it, what are you trying to do?!"

The burly man reached out and removed the sacks from their heads, and couldn't help but sigh.

Rafael, one of the Three Musketeers of Doma, glanced at his two 'colleagues' and then looked at the duelists standing before him.

Seto Kaiba. Yugi Muto, Katsuya Jonouchi, and Tenma Yako.

They are either leaders of a faction or duelists with such great power that the entire Doma organization has to be on guard.

They should have been enemies, but faced with them, Rafael ultimately bowed his head:

"As you can see, I have brought them here."

Upon seeing this, Baron and Ameruda's eyes widened in astonishment.

Even though they were confused before, they now understand what has happened:
"Rafael, you actually betrayed us!"
