Start with Dragon Maid and start dueling!

"Ms. Schindler, I want to seize this opportunity, so I will not be afraid of the challenge."

"Is that so..." The head maid sensed Ling's decision and stopped trying to stop her.

She just sighed slightly in her heart, thinking that maybe she was really too cautious.

The scene of the disaster that day lingered in Schindler's mind from beginning to end, like a shadow that could not be dispelled.

"Qiyim..."

"Eh? What did you say?"

"No, it's nothing..." The head maid smiled and said in Ling's heart, "Since you have made a decision, we will escort you and will not let the dark forces touch you in the slightest!"

Boo-boo-boo--

Four Q-bullet oil tanks of different colors suddenly appeared in front of Ling.

"That's too much! Head maid! When you deployed your defense, you pushed us out as well!"

"Being pushed out by the mental shield means you have bad intentions, right, Parura?" Fulius looked proud, as if she was not pushed out.

"What are you laughing at? You are the same!"

"Pah, pah, Palula is a big idiot~"

"How can I repair it?"

"Hey hey... stop arguing, you two."

"I've been wondering how they passed the maid's professional quality assessment?"

The noisy voices of Parula and others came all at once.

Ling was just wondering why they didn't say a word.

"So you've been banned?"

Bo~

A plump maid also appeared in front of Ling. Her multiple pairs of dragon horns now looked like the legs of some kind of crustacean...

"With this experience, I won't push you away next time."

Schindler reluctantly pushed away the green, ferocious mad dog biting the young Furus.

"Woof~!"

"Then it's decided. We are going to the Duel Kingdom to win the final championship!" Ling bent his knees and stood up from the tatami, looking up at the sky with confidence.

"There is only one Duel King! And that's me!"

While searching for cards these days, she has mastered the basic information of most cards on the market.

She didn't think anyone could beat her with a "primitive" card.

Just like the natives holding spears challenging the armored vehicles.

Ke Lian had no idea what kind of brutal duel she would be facing.

That wasn't a native holding a spear, but a bare-chested psychic warrior with war patterns all over his body, holding a magnetic javelin.

In Haima Company, there is a dim meeting room with no lights on.

Hiding in the darkness, five middle-aged men in suits and ties gathered around a long table, their hands on their chins, their faces gloomy.

They are the Big Five.

The five elite executives of the Kaiba Group whose power is second only to the president Kaiba Seto.

As Kaiba's subordinate, he has no loyalty at all and even has some resentment towards Kaiba.

But today, the arrogant seahorse was not only defeated by an unknown teenager, but also lost its former sharpness and became a walking corpse.

He was like a dazed man, leaving the company's affairs behind and no one knew what he was doing.

"Hehehe... this is a godsend opportunity. It's really a great opportunity for us."

"I never thought Kaiba Seto would lose so badly."

"We should thank Yugi Muto very much, hehe."

"Hehehe..."

"Ha ha……"

In the gloomy environment, although their faces could not be seen, sinister voices could be heard.

"Then let us completely replace Kaiba Seto and save the Kaiba Group!"

"Hehe... Let me take care of this important matter first."

"Dragon Witch Capture Plan!"

"Capturing her will bring incredibly huge benefits to the company, hehe."

"Maybe we can truly control the Seahorse Group without cooperating with Pegasus!"

The only source of light here is a huge projection screen.

On the screen was a scene captured by a surveillance camera.

The picture shows a girl in a black dress, whose face is revealed after continuous zooming.

Those golden eyes were clearly looking elsewhere, but there was a faint feeling that they were staring outside the screen.

It was as if the ones who were spying were not them but the girl on the screen.

It makes people feel scared!

"Well……!"

"It's just like the Dragon Witch, just as incredible!"

"There's no doubt about it, she is the Dragon Witch herself!"

The Big Five all took a deep breath.

"There are other shots. Can you show me a few more?"

"No, I've seen enough..."

They felt an inexplicable pressure from the images and didn't want to look at even one more photo.

"Her address?"

"Yes, we have sent our men over there. They should have arrived by now."

Just as he finished speaking, the communication came through.

[Report, the team has arrived at the Dragon Witch's room, but no target was found.]

"Hmm! According to the intelligence, she should be in the house now?"

"what is inside?"

[There is nothing in the room... there is a burnt TV, it smells so pungent...]

[Hmm? You...]

[Ah…Ahhhhh!!]

[…Monster! Help!]

[I don’t want to die yet! Ouch!]

[Hiss…]

"Contact Pegasus."

9 Board the ship, the night before the duel in the stormy seas!

"The horizon and the starry night sky merge into one...so beautiful..."

The girl raised her white neck, leaned on the railing of the deck, and looked out at the dark moon sea that belonged to the night.

Some time has passed since the invitation letter from Duel Kingdom was delivered to Darling's rental house.

The identity of the Dragon Witch has been exposed. After that, because she didn't want to be bothered by others, Ling no longer carried out the activities of the Dragon Witch.

It was not until now, at the moment when the Duel Kingdom competition began, that she boarded the large ship bound for a private island with her ticket in hand.

The cool sea breeze blew away the scorching summer heat, making Ling feel drowsy and comfortable.

She pulled down the brim of her woven straw hat, leaned on the railing, rested her chin on her white and slender arms, and squinted her eyes comfortably.

Her decision to change out of the hot black dress was the right one.

The refreshing lace-up sandals gently cushioned her delicate bare feet.

From the ankles up are smooth and delicate legs, and beyond the pink knees is a layer of thin black textile gauze covering half of the girl's body.

The summer-style sleeveless black dress vaguely revealed her youthful outline.

Under the night and the starry sky, the girl's beautiful black hair in her straw hat fluttered in the sea breeze, brushing her round shoulders.

The shadowy flying wing outlined on the left eye sets off the smooth and scattered golden pupil, exuding a strange beauty.

When it comes to dressing, Ling habitually chooses deep dark colors, but this does not hinder her "girlish" feeling at all.

It's a pity that she came to the wrong place dressed like this.

The ship to the Duel Kingdom is not a luxury cruise ship for vacation.

From all over the country, contestants selected by the International Illusion Society, ardent Duel Monsters enthusiasts, are gathering on this ship.

They don't have the leisure time like the girl, and it is even more impossible for them to pay attention to anything other than the duel.

At this time, they were mostly interacting in the cabin, strengthening each other's cards, and even spying on their opponents' intelligence, preparing to win the Duel Kingdom Championship.

But this kind of activity is not for Ling.

She would not show her card to others easily.

Besides, even if she wanted to join, it would be like a wolf entering a flock of sheep, causing an extremely chaotic scene.

She might as well have come to the deck and looked out at the deserted sea.

Ling is not alone, she is also accompanied by the maids who live in her heart.

"Hum~Hum~Hum~Hum~" Perhaps it had something to do with the habits of her race. In the humid sea breeze, Fuliusi was in a good mood and hummed a tune.

"…Is there an ocean in the Dragon World?"

Ling's face, which was pressed on her arm, turned to the side, as if she was listening to the words of the person next to her.

But there was no one beside her.

Flame's voice came: "Yes, and it is one of the places I consider going every year when I take a vacation."

"The results of it?"

"I've considered a lot, but most of the time I choose hot springs." She said sheepishly, "I like 'hot soup' and I'm better at making 'hot soup'."

"Not only will I be responsible for the kitchen's distillation duties, but I will also be in charge of the hot water that the young lady will use from now on. Just let me do the boiling."

"Eh? That's the job of the water heater."

"A water heater...? Well, please let me see its power. Let me use my years of experience to compete with it."

"Betting on the title of master!"

"Just boiling water?!"

Ling straightened up from the railing and stretched her numb arms.

She felt a little chilly, and perhaps she should go back to her room to rest and recharge her energy for tomorrow's challenge.

But just when Ling returned to the house, a loud noise came from the deck not far away.

"hateful……"

“Jounouchi…!”
