Yu-Gi-Oh!: From Casual Gamer to Soulful Player

The Millennium Eye, one of the Millennium Items, enjoys immense popularity among all Yu-Gi-Oh! communities.

Because its owner, Pegasus J. Crawford, is the father of Duel Monsters and the first boss the protagonist faces in the game.

Although his abilities are currently limited to playing dark games and using the Millennium Eye to hypnotize and see through his opponents' hands and thoughts, thus knowing all of their strategies in advance, in terms of the level of threat he poses, from the perspective of a casual player like Hyoga, he is actually only slightly weaker than Orichalcos.

Am I going against Pegasus?

real or fake?

My deck only has forty cards left, and I haven't made any adjustments yet!

Just as fear began to rise in the heart of the glacier, the five pyramids simultaneously began to emit light toward the Millennium Eye in the sky.

As the enormous Millennium Eye received these rays of light, it would continuously expand and contract, as if it were absorbing them.

Hyoga understood what those lights were...

Those were all elven powers; it seems the monsters that were sucked into the pyramid have all been crushed.

Upon hearing what Binghe said, the Water Demon Taoist broke out in a cold sweat.

He and Beidou were almost crushed to pieces!

Thanks to the glacier!

The Water Demon Taoist had never been so fortunate.

"Thanks, Hyoga!"

Hyoga glanced back at the water demon priest who was thanking him, and his fear lessened slightly. "It's alright, we're friends..."

Before he could finish speaking, Hyoga turned around and was engulfed by an even greater fear!

Because that enormous, thousand-year-old eye was looking at him.

Or rather, stare!

The image of the glacier is reflected in the pupil of the Thousand-Year Eye.

At this moment, Hyoga was unable to exert even the slightest strength to move.

The power of darkness was transmitted from the Millennium Eye to Hyoga simply through eye contact.

Hyoga suddenly felt his body lighten, as if he was about to be directly drawn to the Millennium Eye.

But at that moment, a stream of water enveloped the glacier, and then the water quickly froze, pulling the glacier directly back onto the sand dunes.

As soon as the glacier landed, the ice shattered immediately. The water demon slammed a magic circle onto the glacier, and a large amount of dark power was directly expelled from it!

"Thanks, Water Demon!"

Binghe trembled as he uttered the words that the Water Demon Taoist had just spoken to him.

The water demon priest chimed in, "It's alright, we're friends!"

However, it's best to leave now, as even eye contact with this thousand-year-old gaze can be controlled, and they have no way to resist it.

"Why not just surrender?"

A chilling voice suddenly rang out, "What a wonderful thing it is to willingly offer one's power and become one with one's master!"

Upon hearing this sound, Hyoga and the others simultaneously went on the defensive.

Even Beidou, who was just dizzy and disoriented, stood in front of Hyoga.

The source of that chilling sound was the dark power that the Water Demon Taoist had just unleashed from the Ice River.

This power did not dissipate or return to the Millennium Eye, but condensed in mid-air and then transformed into a humanoid creature, which landed on the ground.

Hmm? 【Jera's Warrior】?

As Hyoga looked at that familiar face and then at the longsword with its white hilt in his hand, his sense of crisis grew stronger.

"Go if you want!" Hyoga shouted. "We don't want to become food for that big eyeball!"

"Of course I will become one with my master! But that will only be after I've captured you and brought you back!"

"As ordered by the master, the situation here must not be revealed to anyone!"

After Jera's warrior finished speaking, he swung his longsword, unleashing a surge of powerful sword energy.

Damn, you're not going to play cards, you're going to fight?

But the glacier was not alarmed.

Sure enough, the next second an ice wall appeared in front of the sword energy, blocking it completely.

The Water Demon Taoist's defensive capabilities are truly reassuring!

Seeing this, Jera's warrior sheathed his longsword. "You're quite pleased with yourself for having a mage subordinate so skilled in defense!"

Which eye of yours saw that I was smug?

"Then let's duel! Young Soul Warrior!"

The longsword in Jera's warrior's hand suddenly transformed into a dueling disk and became fixed to his arm.

At the same time, a force field emanated from his body and spread outwards, quickly enveloping Hyoga and the others.

Water Magician and Multi-Shot both seemed to have been struck down, transforming into a ball of light and entering Hyoga's deck.

Glacier had no time to pay attention to them, because some messages were also entering his consciousness at the same time.

These are the rules of the duel!

Each side has 2000 LP;

Each of your turns you may Normal Summon or Set one monster;

When your monster attacks an opponent's LP monster, the difference is deducted from the opponent's LP.

Players must not be attacked directly;

LP went to zero and lost;

If you have five monsters on your field while your opponent has none, you win...

There were still quite a few specific rules, but Glacier quickly grasped them!

2000LP? What kind of ancient era is this?! Or is it from the time of Axe King's melee combat?

What if the opponent pulls out a Blue-Eyes White Dragon? How am I supposed to fight that?

Fortunately, he probably doesn't.

After all, there are only four Blue-Eyes White Dragons, and Pegasus doesn't have any.

But Pegasus seems to have a cartoon Blue-Eyes White Dragon.

But Pegasus wouldn't hand over the cartoon monsters to his subordinates, would he?

Furthermore, Cartoon Monsters can only be used within the Cartoon World, and Pegasus would never hand over the Cartoon World to his subordinates!

Not bad, still able to fight!

"Duel!" Jera's warriors shouted, and the duel officially began.

[Glacier, LP2000]

【Jera's Warrior, LP2000】

Just as Hyoga drew five cards and was about to speak, Jera's warrior shouted, "I'll go first, draw!"

He's so skilled!

Yes, speed is indeed essential for winning.

This was Hyoga's first formal battle, and his body began to tremble involuntarily.

"Hmph!" Jera's warrior, having just drawn a card, saw Hyoga's appearance and sneered, "Scared already? Cowardly soul warrior!"

"Scared?" Hyoga looked at his hand, then intently at Jera's warrior. "I'm excited! Because I suddenly realized I'm terrifyingly strong!"

"Hmph! That's all the limited knowledge a weakling can have! Powerful? You've never seen true power! I'll show you what true power looks like."

"I summon the Millennium Primal Man, attack signal!"

[Millennial Primal Man, Attack Power 2750]

I rely on!

Hyoga was genuinely surprised.

Even if we use Axe King to fight first, we can't just go straight for an 8-star monster!

Fortunately, I was more skilled...

"Face one more card, end of turn!" Jera's warrior looked at the card bestowed upon him by his lord, a surge of pride rising within him. "Come on, let's see what you've got!"

"Oh!" Hyoga responded. "Then I'll activate the Offering to the Dead, discarding one card to destroy one of your monsters!"

The ancient primitives, who had just appeared, hadn't even had a minute to show off before they were dragged into the cave by a skeletal hand that reached out from underground.

Jera's warriors didn't even have time to react.

"Then activate Monster Resurrection to resurrect the ancient beings in your graveyard!"

Jera's warriors were furious to see the ancient humans resurrected in the midst of the enemy's battle.

"Kisama!" (You bastard!)

But Hyoga ignored the other party's reaction.

"You have no other monsters on your field, so I can't attack. Therefore, I'll set one more card in my back row, and end my turn!"

Hyoga smiled and then looked at the other person.

Alright, now it's your turn to play Yu-Gi-Oh!
