Yu-Gi-Oh!: This card wants to go to you.

But I can't exactly tell her outright that I escaped through the time portal of the Rebirth Shop, can I?

"It's a matter of privacy, so I can't disclose that information."

Luo Bai smiled slightly and said, forcing a smile.

"Hmm?" Yi Lan frowned suspiciously, then suddenly realized something and nodded, saying, "Oh... I can understand... Speaking of which, the Dark Game in the Dungeon mainly involves betting on three things."

"Human life, Fang Jing's right to sexual autonomy."

"Sexual...sexual autonomy?" Luo Bai looked surprised and confused when he heard this unfamiliar term. He understood the first two, but the last one sounded...strange.

“You should know…” Yi Lan paused for a moment, a meaningful smile appearing on her lips, “In our world, there are many carnivorous female duelists, and those with delicate skin like you are very popular.”

"The loser will become the victor's wrath."

She emphasized the words "our world," as if she were testing something.

Luo Bai didn't ponder her hints too much; his attention was occupied by the shock of these unfamiliar rules. He only felt a chill creep up from his waist, penetrating to his very bones.

"Playing...playing this big?"

Because of a strange congenital inability to feel pain, he has always been very self-conscious, and he has also been brainwashed for many years with the idea that "true duelists do not choose their opponents".

That aspect only exists in theoretical knowledge.

The most intimate kiss was given to Tony the hairdresser.

"So, are you still going?" Yi Lan teased him. "Losing your sexual autonomy means not only being exploited by the Sheng family, but also having to serve her friends... in turns... you know what I mean."

“Take turns…take turns.” Luo Bai’s expression changed slightly.

"But they will save your life."

"After all, what you lost was not your right to life."

Her gaze toward Luo Bai turned teasing: "Your movements were so practiced just now, were you perhaps in the dungeon... huh? Quite a sacrifice, wasn't it?"

"That's not true!" Luo Bai quickly retorted.

The "table slam" I just did was completely improvised!

His lifelong reputation was almost ruined.

"Heh, since you're not afraid of death, then let's go," Yi Lan said coldly.

"Now? Aren't we in class?"

"The white-coat class doesn't need to attend classes."

Yi Lan led him to the iron gate, paused slightly, and remembered that she had locked the gate from the inside and thrown away the key earlier as a show of force.

"Uh--"

But it doesn't matter!

"Wait a moment."

With a blank expression, Yi Lan quickly activated the supercomputing ring on her wrist and pressed a familiar number with precision and decisiveness.

【Dean!】

A tense voice came from the other end of the communication.

Are you alright?

There was an earthquake just now!

"fine."

"Come to 308, the earthquake destroyed the door, please help."

(Luo Bai: They can even blame this on the earthquake)

【okay! 】

The response from the other end of the communication was full of energy and enthusiasm, as if she would step forward without hesitation whenever and wherever needed, just like...

Don't be afraid.

【I'm fucking here!】

In less than two minutes, a scene resembling movie special effects unfolded in real life. A deafening explosion resounded through the corridor, and the iron door shattered under the powerful impact, scattering fragments everywhere.

The smoke of battle has cleared.

Behind the ruins of the iron gate, a silver-haired girl stood proudly, wearing a pair of high-tech goggles, holding a flamethrower, and striking an extremely chuunibyou (delusional) battle-ready pose.

"The hero has arrived!"

As she shouted, she switched to a cool standing posture.

“Yuki Hinale, one of the team members.” Yilan was unsurprised and calmly introduced the two to each other. “As for him… well… he’s just a Kamen Rider who happened to be passing by.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a cold wind began to rise.

“Touring the city…” Luo Bai murmured to himself.

"Kamen Rider?!"

Binael narrowed her eyes, casting a shocked and hostile glance. After a moment, she turned and saluted Yilan, saying, "Dean, what are my plans for today?"

"Hmm..." Yi Lan pondered for a moment and said, "First, let's check if the earthquake caused any collapses and assist with the rescue. In the afternoon, let's set up the guidance bureau in the first teaching area and recruit some [preparatory students]."

“Those white clouds…” Binel looked troubled.

"Let her have some peace and quiet for the next couple of days."

Binaire immediately saluted again and said solemnly, "Understood!"

Having said that, she vanished like the wind, seemingly completely obedient to Yi Lan.

"Your little fangirl?" Luo Bai teased.

“It’s none of your business,” Yi Lan replied coldly.

The two quickly arrived at the entrance on the first floor. To the stunned gaze of the team members, Yi Lan calmly called for the sports car, turned her head gracefully, and spoke in a steady yet assertive tone.

"boarding."

Luo Bai seemed a little lost, like a kept man, slightly shy, as he got into her car.

With just one simple action, the crowd erupted in chaos.

"What...what's going on?"

"What kind of connections do you need to get into the dean's car?"

"I'm so sour."

"Pah, pretty boy!"

"Is this new team member planning to use his looks to get in through connections?"

"They might go through the front door."

"Seriously? You can drive on this lousy road?"

...

On the way to the underground city.

The wind was strong, but the car was stable; she's definitely a seasoned driver.

He gazed at her indifferent profile, his thoughts wandering.

A person with a mental age of several hundred years doesn't like to laugh; a person with a mental age of only a few years laughs so hard they can't distinguish between cows and horses.

These are two completely opposite personalities.

How could they possibly be mixed up in the same body?

He couldn't figure it out.

...

She couldn't figure it out.

My fingers tightened slightly on the steering wheel as the scenery outside the car window rushed past.

What do you want?

"Going on an adventure to the dungeon, is it for the Negative Crystal?"

What are you planning to exchange it for?

"Or should we...destroy something?"

In Biantana, negative cubes are the highest-level hard currency, capable of being exchanged for everything. Similarly, as an extremely compressed energy source, negative cubes can destroy everything when detonated.

"What do I want...?"

That day, he sat in the passenger seat and thought about many things.

What do I really want?

He kept asking himself questions, and then kept refuting them.

Wealth? Status? Medical treatment? New card deck? The truth about his origins?

Neither is accurate.

He shouldn't be a god; he should also have things he wants.

"I want..."

After a long pause, he slowly spoke, and she cast a curious glance at him.

"A duel that you can't afford to lose, and that you might lose."

She raised her eyes slightly, not quite understanding, and said dismissively, "What's so difficult about that? Just find a master to duel and risk your life, right?"

"Do not..."

He responded indifferently.

"I can afford to lose my life."

People born without pain.
