The card player needs to win easily

The one in the middle who looked the strongest made the decision.

--------------------------------

"Have you found your prey?"

A light flashed across the sunglasses of the blond man wearing an American flag bandana.

If Kaiba were here, he would recognize this man's identity immediately - the "Thief Keith" who lost to Bekas and is the number one duelist in the United States.

"We did find prey, but... there are some minor problems."

Ghost Bone Mound hesitated and continued his teammate's words.

"Among them, there's a girl named Liva. It's said that she defeated Kaiba Seto and is definitely going to advance."

"Liva? Never heard of it—and we should be the only ones who can enter the castle."

"Listen up! The reason you half-baked guys are still around is because of my guidance, Thief Keith! So from now on, you'll all keep winning!"

After hearing this encouragement, the hesitation of the three people was swept away.

"That's right! We have the help of America's number one bounty hunter, Thief Keith. There's no way we can lose!"

Standing up from the stone, the thief Keith took off his sunglasses and looked towards the castle in the center of the island, with resentment in his eyes.

"Becas...when I get to the castle, I will pay you back for the insults you inflicted on me in America!"

The trio who were about to leave suddenly thought of something and turned back to the thief Keith.

"Boss! Who do you think should start first between those two?"

"Since you guys say that Liwa is pretty capable, then pick on the weaker ones first."

the other side.

"I haven't even gathered all the chips yet, why are all the people gone?"

Throughout the morning, only a handful of duelists passed by the forest, and only one or two came looking for them.

"It's the second day already, the number of people must have dropped dramatically. How could we find so many people to give you stars?"

However, even with only this many people, both of them have almost collected all the star chips.

Liva has already got ten full star chips, while Siren has eight.

So theoretically, as long as we find one more person, we can enter Bekas' castle together.

"Is this... a cave? There shouldn't be anyone in there."

There was a pitch-black cave embedded in the stone wall in front of me.

To be honest, Liva always has a fear of dark places. This is probably human instinct.

"Have you forgotten? This is where the castle's clod's luck first failed!"

She tried desperately to recall the plot of Yu-Gi-Oh, but it had been a long time since she last watched it, and she couldn't remember the details, so Liva couldn't remember it after all.

"Yeah, here we are! Come and see for yourself!"

Siren waved her hand and entered the cave alone.

Seeing the Siren dive into the darkness by herself, Liva didn't want to go in even more.

Now there is no one to go in with.

"Hello? I'm not going in? I'll just wait outside okay?"

I tried shouting a few times inside, but got no response from the Siren. I could only hear my own voice echoing at the entrance of the cave.

"I'm just staying outside, okay?"

You're a jerk who's obviously of the light attribute but is afraid of the dark.

--------------------------------

In fact, Siren did not want to answer Liva's question, but——

He was caught as soon as he came in.

"You'd better be careful, shut up and don't talk. (whispering)"

Even Siren didn't expect that these people were so swift and fast, just like the speed of a rainbow six flash shield rushing towards you.

Although it was not difficult for Siren to shake off the two people behind her with her current strength, tying her up was exactly what she wanted - this way she could quickly collect ten stars.

It's just a pity for Li Wa who was squatting on the ground outside the door and drawing circles.

The person behind pushed Siren deep into the cave.

"Since you are a girl, we won't do anything to you."

"But you'd better behave yourself!"

The Siren glanced back.

"Good good."

If this wasn't in Yu-Gi-Oh, what happened next might be something that can only be understood but not expressed in words. Who knows, the next day there might be a mysterious link on the Internet with a title like "Mermaid's Feast ~ The Secret Image of the Laying of Pearl Tears in Sushi."

However, here, the first purpose of kidnapping the cute girl is to play cards, and the second purpose is to threaten others to play cards.

In a sense, it's a very friendly world.

I don’t know how long I walked on the road, but finally I saw a glimmer of candlelight.

The sturdy Satake behind him threw Siren onto what seemed to be a wooden support without any mercy.

"Oh, what are you doing~"

Ignoring Siren's meaningless complaints, the red-haired man with a pointed face and monkey cheeks, Takaido Kiyoshi, walked over and checked the duel gloves on Siren's hands.

"Looking closely, you actually have eight star chips. We've caught a fat sheep!"

Surprised, Takaido Kiyoshi immediately pressed the button to start the duel arena.

The dim light from above suddenly shone on the circle centered on the duel stage, revealing the surrounding scene.

What looked like skulls were piled haphazardly on the wooden planks, and the open coffins were covered in cobwebs, the skeletons inside missing.

"This Bekas really has a disgusting and bad taste."

The thief Keith, who was sitting behind the dueling stage, was not impressed by Bekas's arrangement.

"One thing to say, one thing to say, indeed."

Siren stood up and said this with a smile.

"You're not scared by this place at all? You're quite strong, kid."

Watching Siren curiously moving his skull to the left and touching the coffin with his right, the thief Keith suddenly felt that this guy was interesting.

"Of course I'm not afraid. Entering the cemetery feels like going home. I didn't go home on New Year's Eve. I went to the cemetery!"

"Alright! You bastard, come to the duel and give me all the stars!"

The ghost bone mound standing opposite the duel arena couldn't stand it anymore and stepped forward to interrupt Siren's strange words.

"So, you're very brave? Then I'll bet two stars."

"Two? I want you to bet all your star chips!"

The sturdy Satake shouted to the Siren with some dissatisfaction.

"Do you think I'm stupid? Why do I need so many chips?"

The Siren on the stage glanced at the trio as if they were fools.

"What are you still making a fuss about? Hurry up, just two."

Thief Keith waved his hand patiently, telling Ghost Onizuka to start quickly.

"Yeah, you can't escape anyway! As long as you're here, all the chips will be taken away!"

"OK?"

Ghost Onitsuka suddenly noticed that the gray-haired girl standing opposite him suddenly tilted her head, with the corners of her mouth almost completely open, making a terrifying and joyful smile under the candlelight and shadow.

"Alas!"

Shivering violently, Ghost Onizuka turned to look at his boss. However, Thief Keith only gave Ghost Onizuka an impatient look, signaling him to intensify the duel.

Since you are looking for excitement, then follow through to the end!

Siren has decided which deck to play here.

The white mist in his hand gathered into a deck of cards and placed it on the duel stage.

"Come on, duel——"

"Come... come and duel!"

"DUEL!!! (The duel begins!!!)"

PS: Do you want to guess the deck that Siren will play next?

Very misleading tip: A mix of multiple races, the main deck has monsters from the Undead, Angel, Machine, Insect, and Magician types. Among these monsters, the Undead is the most, but not more than twice the maximum number of other races.

Duel Kingdom: Chapter 15: Three Bone Area

The Siren took the initiative.

"This hand card..."

Not very satisfied.

All I can say is that although I can move comfortably, I can’t bring a smile to the other person’s face.

"I face down four cards, and that's the end of the turn."

"My turn!"

Ghost Bone Mound took a look at the cards he had drawn - there was "Neighbor Mowing the Lawn"!

After taking a look at Siren's deck of only thirty-five cards, he felt that he had a sure win in this duel!

"I'm going to activate it from my hand—"

"Onitsuka, wait a moment."

The thief Keith behind him quietly called out to Ghost Bone Mound who was about to use "Mowing the Neighbor's Grass".

"Use the card on your left first."

"Isn't this considered cheating?"

Siren looked at the thief Keith who interrupted the duel.

"Cheating? How can you call it cheating when it comes to the boss's business? This is called off-field assistance!"

In the eyes of the three thieves sitting in the audience, Keith, Satake, and Takaido Kiyoshi, the Siren who was dueling was just a moving bag of chips.

As long as Ghost Onitsuka wins in this deserted place, no matter what means he uses, on the duel stage set up by Bekas, it will be a success for his side.

"Okay, Boss, I'll listen to you. I'll Normal Summon Minotaur and activate this card's effect to send an Undead monster from my Deck to the Graveyard!"

"I discard 'Gray Flowing Beauty' from my hand to negate your effect."

"It's actually 'Gray Flowing Beauty'!"

Ghost Onizuka looked at the "Neighbor Mowing the Lawn" on the hand card with fear.

If it weren’t for the help of his boss, “mowing the lawn next door” would have been stopped!

"Then I activate the Normal Spell Card 'Mowing the Neighbor' from my hand!' Based on the difference in deck size between our two decks, I send nineteen cards from the top of my deck to the Graveyard!"

So this is the use of the "Bull-Headed Ghost"!

"Boss, you are worthy of me! It turns out that everything I followed you was correct!"

Ghost Onizuka clenched his fists excitedly.

However, the thief Keith behind him covered his face with his hands.

"If this guy wasn't such a terrible duelist, unable to even trick a hand trap, and playing against this deck, I can't imagine what kind of scene this 'Neighbor Mowing the Grass' card could create..."

If it weren't for the guidance of Thief Keith, Ghost Onizuka shouldn't even be on this island now.
