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

"I am."

He removed his armor, revealing a face with sharp features, weathered by time, and deep, steady eyes, a testament to countless battles.

A general of a fortress must remain calm no matter what situation he faces.

"Someone asked me to give this card to you." Luo Bai took a deep breath, his expression filled with sorrow.

A magic card, stained with blood and adorned with a golden halo, flew out of his supercomputer and landed in Nanyang Yi's hand.

Nanyang Yi looked at the card with a puzzled expression, his pupils suddenly dilated.

Looking at the bloodstains on it.

He understood everything in an instant.

The general, who had remained calm in the face of the horde of beasts pressing down on the city, was now completely panicked.

"Where...where is he..." he asked, his head bowed and his voice trembling.

Luo Bai slowly closed his eyes and whispered, "He's dead. His blood is on this."

The cold words pierced the listener's heart, one syllable at a time.

Nanyang Yi's eyes became dull, and his lips and chest trembled slightly.

He gripped the card tightly in his hand.

There were emotions about to erupt, but they were forcibly suppressed.

As a general, one cannot expose one's vulnerability in front of others.

"Please accept my condolences," Luo Bai said softly, then turned and left.

“Ah Yue…” Nanyang Hao’s eyes reddened slightly. He turned around and shouted to the soldiers, “All of you, go down to the city for inspection.”

Normally, only a general could issue such a general's order.

Can...

He's not a general now, he's an older brother.

I need to be alone for a while to release my emotions.

Beneath the city wall, Luo Bai slightly raised his head, the sunlight falling on his face, bringing a warm touch.

He let out a long sigh of relief.

"I wonder how things are at the store."

Chapter 714 Staff

Bian Yuelong, it's night, nine o'clock in the evening.

Inside the fortress city, contrary to its usual solemnity, lanterns and decorations were everywhere, creating a festive atmosphere.

The war against the beasts has been a complete victory, and the epic Blue-Eyes White Dragon, which was loaned out, has finally returned home after two hundred years—two great joys.

In the central square, a huge bonfire blazed, illuminating half the sky.

"Everything is free today!" At the entrance of the Magic Chef Restaurant, the beautiful chef shouted at the top of her lungs, her face beaming with joy.

The restaurant was already packed, with people raising their glasses and enjoying their food.

"Angel, I love you!" The crowd's faces beamed with happiness.

A young mother held her child, pointing to the dazzling fireworks outside the window. The child clapped his hands excitedly and giggled. At a nearby table, several young people sat arm in arm, chatting and laughing loudly, occasionally clinking glasses.

The nearby Qiyuan Card Shop was also bustling with activity, with an eye-catching banner hanging at the entrance that read "70% off everything".

To celebrate these two joyous occasions, the card shop is hosting a "Newcomer Cup," with the winner receiving a Lost Rare Card - "Hope Royal Onomatopoeia Utopia."

The shop was bustling with noise, and shouts of duels rose and fell.

"Let's duel!"

"The championship can only belong to me!"

"So what are you going to do if I print this card?"

[False Declaration]

"Try this trick, open the card—"

"Two [Whirlwind] cards?!"

"I have to admit, your right hand is stronger."

"Good fight!"

"I concede."

With the internet still down, offline card shops are the best option.

Luo Bai blended into the crowd and occasionally spotted some geniuses.

"That guy looks familiar..." someone muttered, pointing at Luo Bai from the corner.

Luo Bai's eyes darted around, she pulled her mask up to cover her face, and turned to walk out of the card shop.

If I get recognized, it will disrupt the atmosphere of the duel, so it's best not to let it affect the outcome.

He scratched his head lightly. His hair had grown quite long in three years, and he had some stubble. He hadn't looked in a mirror, but you could guess that he didn't look very good.

"It's nine o'clock, the Uncharted Domain should be open by now."

"Door—come here!" Luo Bai muttered to himself, walked to a secluded spot, and waved his arm in a childish manner.

The familiar wooden door slowly came into view.

After passing through the ruins of the gods and the underworld, he was deeply moved to finally see the wooden door again.

"Teacher Tony, please don't let anything happen to you."

He muttered to himself and quickly walked through the wooden door.

After being caught up in the cataclysmic event of the underworld, the shop will be stuck in a spacetime rift, and it is unclear whether the flow of time is considered to be in the underworld or the present world.

If the flow rate were the same as in the underworld, the food stored in the card shop wouldn't be enough for that cat for three years.

The moment I stepped through the wooden door, I felt that peculiar sensation under my feet, and all around me was pitch black.

Luo Bai habitually looked up at the moon, his pupils contracting: "Eleven stars..."

Last time I looked with Baiyun there were nine moons, now there are eleven, just like the moon in the underworld.

"The God of the Underworld?" he murmured to himself.

They were not subjected to any strange backlash from the soul.

"Ah!" Luo Bai finally let out a cry that had been held back for three years, "Finally, I'm out of that hellhole!"

The fact that there was no backlash indicates that the Unbounded Realm is not the territory of the Underworld God. The two moons look similar, but they are not the same thing.

"I'm free!"

Luo Bai opened her arms and embraced the moonlight.

He skipped happily toward the familiar direction, and soon saw the lights. He stopped, and his brows slowly furrowed.

"Why are there lights..."

He muttered to himself as he approached the shop for the dead step by step.

According to the description of the Soul Card [Appearance of the Underworld], this is the trump card of the Rebirth Shop, which will only be activated when the shop owner or the card shop is in dire straits.

Once activated, the card store will enter a self-locking state.

It is not open to the public, stuck in a spacetime rift, shuts down power consumption and enters hibernation until the store manager returns.

Why are there lights?

There is only one explanation: when the [Netherworld] was activated, someone broke into the Rebirth Shop.

"Teacher Tony?"

Luo Bai tentatively called out and slowly rushed towards the light. When he got closer, the scene in front of him stunned him.

"Huh? Did I go to the wrong place?"

The store is surrounded by flowers and plants, like a vibrant little garden. Lush green vines climb up the walls, turning the originally cold walls into a lively place.

No, it's been three years since I've been back, the grass will have grown back there?

The grass in front of the shop rustled and swayed, catching Luo Bai's attention.

He frowned, his eyes sharp and wary, his right hand unconsciously resting on the spirit summoning device.

"Teacher Tony?" he asked cautiously.

It definitely wasn't Tony the hairstylist. Even if Tony was starving and dying out there, he wouldn't go out to eat grass!

The grass stopped shifting and remained there for a while before a little girl suddenly emerged.

She looked to be only about ten years old, wearing a loose, ill-fitting shirt that looked somewhat familiar, like his clothes.

(Remember this kid ↑)

Luo Bai's puzzled gaze shifted downwards, and he noticed the number 0641 branded on the little girl's wrist.

"Numbered citizen?" He frowned slightly. "0641? Where have I heard that before..."

"Human..." The little girl looked at him timidly, her mouth slightly open, as if her brain had crashed, unable to utter a sound. After a long while, her brain finally came to life, "Ah!!!"

"Cat Teacher—"

"Help! Someone's coming!"

The little girl opened her mouth wide and let out a piercing yet childish scream.

She took off running, rushed into the store, locked the door, picked up the fat cat from the table, and held it in her arms with practiced ease.

"Huh? Wearing my clothes? Locking up my shop, and hugging my cat?" Luo Bai's face twisted in the dim light.

He looks exactly like a villain.

"Look how capable you are!"
