Duels should be played with a smile.

What? It seems you were the one who planned it? Oh well, that's alright then.

With mixed feelings, Leyou approached them and got closer to them.

Then...

In full view of everyone, he pulled them all into his arms.

"It's time to wake up."

"It's not just you, it's me too, we all need to wake up."

Intimacy.

In front of everyone, the incredibly shameless Leyou launched a psychological attack on all the unrelated bystanders.

The elves all lowered their heads, staring intently at the patterns on the ground, while K, who was now an outsider in the sky, felt a wave of disgust.

This feeling... is really unpleasant.

Just as he was preparing to use other methods to cause trouble again, an inexplicable pressure descended upon him.

"A guy who's afraid to duel should just stay here quietly."

"Oh~ a party is about to start here, but unfortunately, you're not on the guest list~"

The sound seemed to be coming from the playful creature on the ground. K stopped moving and frowned.

What's wrong with me? It's just two sentences with no clear meaning, so why do I feel so uncomfortable?

……

Outside, time has stopped flowing.

Suddenly, Isis appeared in front of the Magic Academy.

Her gaze swept over Jaden, Yusei, and Yusaku's faces, and a relieved smile appeared on her face.

"Come on, it's time for us to get started."

As soon as she finished speaking, a point of light flew out from each of the three Judai and the others and landed in Isis's palm. Soon, the light disappeared, leaving only three blank cards in Isis's palm.

"I'm really... lucky."

Wow, the review process is back online!

However, it seems the scope for illustrations has been broadened considerably.

It's time to write about the penultimate duel.

Chapter Sixty-Nine: The Ultimate Sacrifice? Take it away, we've had enough. 5K5

"Is this your world?"

"No, from the moment you decided to go into hiding, this place was no longer your responsibility."

"This is your house, but the current situation is that we're going to have a party in your house, and you can only hide on the sidelines and watch!"

"Heh, if you don't have the courage to settle things with me in a duel, then you'd better stay on the sidelines and be a spectator!"

After a barrage of words, K's face turned pale and then red. He was somewhat surprised and uncertain. He didn't know what Leyou had gone through to have the confidence to confront him like this.

Don't worry too much about those Faceless Ones below, but before figuring out what cards Leyou has up its sleeve, K feels he still needs to be careful.

The plan has been progressing smoothly, and there is no need to create unnecessary complications in this area; we should just continue to wait.

"Ha, such tricks won't provoke me. I'll just stand by and watch how you try to escape."

After uttering a harsh remark, K said nothing more, remaining in his illusory form high above, looking down at Leyou and his next move.

"Why bother getting out of trouble?" Leyou shrugged indifferently, appearing remarkably relaxed.

"I was never trapped by you... or rather, it wasn't you who trapped me."

"At least, not the current you..."

The communication in the spiritual world is not synchronized with the real world. Leyou's thoughts have already explained a lot to Philvo and the others in the spiritual world, while only a short moment has passed in reality.

After several more instructions, Leyou regained her composure, and Philvo and the others also woke up from their unexpected coma.

"Really... I never thought I'd mess up like this." Philvo said with some helplessness, glancing at Leyou as he spoke—basically implying that Leyou had to take half the blame.

The Snow Woman sighed again. Knowing that the situation wasn't urgent, she, who always seemed to thrive on chaos, began to fan the flames.

"Hey, to be fair, this is entirely someone's fault. If he hadn't embarrassed us and then betrayed us, we wouldn't be in this situation."

It must be admitted that Yuki-onna's talent for being sarcastic and unsettling is off the charts.

In the end, Ella was the most considerate. Unlike Philo and the Snow Woman, she didn't annoy Leyou. Instead, she gave him a caring look, which made him feel "relieved".

"Alright, it's about time to start. We can't keep the 'guests' waiting impatiently."

Leyou deliberately emphasized the word "guest," showing its meticulous attention to such subtle details that could be off-putting.

"Then, let's begin."

Buzz————

The moment Leyou finished speaking, before Leyou himself could even react, the magic array that had been set up by Inherited Fiberglass underwent an astonishing change.

A massive barrier suddenly rose up, enveloping everyone within it.

And that's not all...

The elves had somehow already stood neatly at the edge of the barrier, forming a circle around them, with Leyou and the others at the very center.

Several beams of light flew out from the hand of the inherited fiberglass and landed in the crystal of Leyou and the others. In an instant, a sense of enlightenment arose in their hearts.

However, their expressions soon became somewhat strange.

"I mean...do we really have to do this?"

"Yeah...it felt so awkward."

"Indeed... although no specific details were given, the general requirements already exude a strong sense of mischief."

The three of them looked at Leyou together, their beautiful eyes filled with scrutiny—or perhaps interrogation?

Leyou cast a pleading look at Inherited Fiberglass, but all he got in return was a shrug.

"Don't look at me. That's the situation I saw. Whether you do it or not is up to you."

Slowly returning to his position, Jicheng Fiberglass said nothing more, leaving the four members of Leyou looking at each other in bewilderment.

"Ah...it's a little embarrassing, but I'll start anyway."

With immense courage, Leyou took that first step, her heart filled with mixed emotions.

Rounding down... he messed up by himself this time.

Suppressing his shame, Leyou raised one hand high and looked up at the sky.

The time for awakening has come!

"A pioneer of fusion! [Predatory Plant - Crassula ovata]!"

A beam of indigo purple light shone from the anaconda, dazzlingly bright. Beneath the beam of light, a card flew out from the anaconda's body, bearing its image.

"The Light of Synchronization! [Crystal Mechanism - Inherited Fiberglass]!"

A flash of pure white light appeared, and the card, which was made of fiberglass, flew out as well.

Next... Leyou suddenly realized that she seemed to have forgotten something.

When he got stuck, Ella stepped in.

"This position... should be filled by me."

Unlike Leyou, Ella didn't feel any shame about this behavior.

She cares about very few things.

"Supercharge Climax! [Shining No. 0 Hope of Different Heat Synergy]!"

As soon as she finished speaking, to Leyou's astonishment, Ella's long dress was covered by a dark light. When the light faded, the elegant dress had transformed into a "battle dress."

Leyou never imagined that she would use that word to describe Ella, who was so dashing and spirited.

"Thanks to you, I, who was once the god of despair, now possess the power called hope."

As if explaining, or as if expressing gratitude, the Flash No. 0 card flashed in Ella's hand and flew into the sky.

"So, next..."

"Pendulum Savior! [Newly Armored Warrior - Silver Princess]!"

The unique two-tone light appeared on the silver-gold body, an arc that streaked across the sky, making the pendulum's radiance exceptionally dazzling.

"So, finally..."

"Without a doubt, it's me."

Without any hesitation, as the atmosphere gradually warmed up, what might have been slightly awkward behavior now felt completely comfortable, and instead, there was a sense of anticipation.

"The ultimate goal of summoning magic is connection!"

"Connect to the Overlord! [Fireproof Dragon]!"

The powerful shout was so loud that if it weren't so close, Leyou wouldn't have believed that Philvo could say such a thing.

"Tsk tsk tsk... Connector Overlord, I think you're way more of a chuunibyou than I am."

"Say that again? Code Language Fist Warning!"

Representing the six major summoning techniques...

"That's not all!"

"At a time like this, how can we forget the starting points of the six major summoning techniques!"

"It is our duty to restore the glory of the ceremony!"

As if infected by this cringeworthy atmosphere, Leyou no longer feels ashamed at all.
