Yu-Gi-Oh! 5Ds: Duelists Beyond Light

Chapter 228 Speed ​​227 The Unspeakable

Boma is very strong, and as he and You Qing said, there is absolutely no way he can lose in this round.

After Boma's duel is over, the next round will be the battles between the duelists that Godwin brought in to make up the numbers. After this round of the quarterfinals, the final round of the Lucky Cup tournament will begin with the revival matches.

However, calling it a revival tournament isn't entirely accurate, because whether a duelist can enter the final four is determined by their total score in this round, rather than the number of wins or losses.

When the revival round was added midway through the tournament, the Lucky Cup adopted a less common scoring system, which scored duelists based on their number of wins and dueling performance. Ultimately, only the top four duelists with the highest scores could advance.

The remaining LP and SPC at the end of the duel, the total number of combos played throughout the match, and even the progress and duration of VDC's lead are all within the scoring criteria.

After the first day of the competition officially ended, Yuki, Jack Atlas, Yusei Fudo, and Poma undoubtedly advanced as the top four, while the other duelists were completely eliminated.

During dinner break that night, Yuqing and Fudou Yusei chatted about deck building and side decks. The two had been exchanging ideas quite a bit these past few days, and despite being opponents in the competition, it didn't stop them from talking.

As night approached, You Qing returned to his resting place, reflecting on the events of the day and comparing them with the original story.

Towards the end, he seemed to realize some problems.

Because of the appearance of Poma's D-Wheel in this world, Ryua won't be able to secretly look at Poma's D-Wheel and get caught like in the original story.

However, the most important point is that since the Lucky Cup takes place two years earlier than the original timeline, Poma's hometown should not have been destroyed by Godwin's experiment at this time.

Therefore, Poma, who harbors no resentment, is simply an ordinary professional duelist, and there is no possibility that he will become a Dark Sign.

After tomorrow's matches, the Lucky Cup chapter will officially come to an end. With the awakening of the Dragon Seals, the Dark Seals will gradually become active, and before long, the Earthbound Gods will descend.

You Qing kept thinking.

Since his appearance has taken away Jack Atlas's Red Dragon Seal, there should also be another Dark Seal user to correspond with him.

He had assumed it would be Boma, but now it seemed that it wasn't.

What will happen next in the trajectory of fate?

With one more Dragon Seal Bearer, there is one less Dark Seal Bearer?
So who will fill this vacancy?
With his thoughts becoming increasingly chaotic, the already exhausted You Qing quickly fell asleep, and just as his snoring began to fall softly, Dikade returned home from outside.

He didn't go to watch the game with Yu Qing that day because he had something to deal with with Saiga and Kurosawa.

After a long day, Decade took off his coat and went to the bathroom. Looking at the half-face mask in the mirror, his hands trembled uncontrollably.

Every time he sees the scars on his face in the mirror, he thinks of the girl he couldn't have and the pain he felt during the Pegasus Festival.

If it is a common scar, it can be easily removed with the current technology in Mino City, leaving at most a slight mark.

The scars of Decade...

It is the deepest and most fundamental corrosion and decay!
When Tianma Xingdou used this demand as a pledge of allegiance, he had already made preparations. He was certain that there was no way to remove this ugly mark before spreading this method within the Tianma Society.

Everyone who joins the Pegasus Club will be marked with a mark that can never be erased from their life...

"Whoosh——————————" Decade took off his mask, and as soon as he saw the horrifying and terrifying large scar, complex emotions instantly overwhelmed his tired mind. He swept all the toiletries to the ground, making a series of clattering sounds.

He stared wide-eyed at the abyss-like drain in the pool, and a painful yet unforgettable memory surfaced in his mind.

he……

Standing in the magnificent corridor...

From behind the door in front of them came the moans and cries of a young girl...

That was the woman he loved, yet she was being tormented by some bloated, wealthy man!
Later, he found Tianma Xingdou and used his accumulated merits to buy the girl's freedom and life...

Decade had kept this a secret all along, afraid that mentioning it would hurt her. However, ever since she saw the horrifying scar on Decade's face, the girl was no longer the same person who had helped him.

When Decade first set foot on the land of New Domino City, he was as destitute as a stray dog. It was the appearance of that girl that saved him from starvation and allowed him to survive until the day he established contact with Saiga.

Perhaps it was because of this affection that Decade could never forget her.

but now……

The inability to forget became the root of the pain.

Decade's suppressed sobs could be faintly heard through the walls of the bathroom, and You Qing, who had just been awakened, let out a long sigh.

He knew that Decade would never mention saving the girl so that she could forget her painful memories. But if he didn't say anything, the girl would only see Decade as an ordinary friend who had helped her in the past and was now successful. And because she couldn't accept the terrible scar, she wouldn't be able to be with Decade.

You Qing stood outside the bathroom door: "Tell her, Decade."

But Decade, leaning on the pool with one hand and covering his mouth with the other, still sobbed silently, shaking his head and gritting his teeth as he slowly said:

"There's a way... there definitely will be a way..."

"I must..."

"It will definitely turn back to the way it was before!"

Decade's words were like pressing a countdown button. In the dimly lit living room, You Qing shuddered, as if realizing something...

The next day.

The number of spectators who came to watch the game was reduced by more than half.

The tickets from the first day were indeed valid for free to watch today's matches, but when it was learned last night that three of the four duelists who qualified were from the Satellite Zone, many viewers tore their tickets to shreds.

Sparse audience members gradually entered the venue. They were kind and showed no discrimination, only loud support and encouragement. However, no matter how loud they were, they could not hide the desolation of the scene.

The first match of the semi-finals is about to begin!
Both battles today were high-speed duels!

The dedicated host's enthusiasm for the commentary did not diminish in the slightest despite the situation on site. Under his passionate introduction, You Qing and Bo Ma rushed out of the garage one after the other!
