A duelist never gives up!

"Huh?" Yuan Qi was stunned. "If you don't use the Insect Demon, what do you use?"

"Hehe, I've figured it out." Sera's lips curled up slightly as she said, "The power of the Insect Demon has its limits!"

“So, I’m going to get a second deck!!!”

Chapter 35: You can lie to your friends, but don’t lie to yourself.

"Second deck?"

In the dimly lit gaming club, Yuan Qi looked at Sera, who was not very tall when she stood up from the ground, and couldn't help but ask curiously, "What deck?"

Sera smiled mysteriously, leaned down, and slowly moved her delicate little face closer to Yuan Qi, until she was less than five centimeters away from the tip of Yuan Qi's nose. Then she blinked and said mischievously, "Secret!"

"Then you play by yourself, I'll go find someone else." Yuan Qi stood up and was about to leave.

"Wait! I'm just kidding, don't be impatient!" Sera puffed up her cheeks and said unhappily, "Hero, he's a hero!"

"Huh? You? Using a hero?!" Yuan Qi looked Sera up and down and shook his head quickly, "It's not appropriate, right?"

Sera, a duelist, went to play a heroic OTK? That's a huge leap.

"Why is it inappropriate?" Sera complained. "I'm kind-hearted, helpful, and have a strong sense of justice. Do you think the word 'hero' doesn't fit me?"

"Kind-hearted?"

"The college's educational resources are limited. If I don't go to class, the teacher will have more energy to teach other students. Isn't this a selfless act of kindness?"

"Helping?"

"I was the one who taught Yukikaze how to use the Xyz Summon!"

"A strong sense of justice?"

"I've defeated countless evil villains and saved the world countless times!"

"In the game, right?" Yuan Qi said angrily and amusedly.

"In short, I think I am very suitable for the hero deck." Sera said confidently.

"I think the only monster suitable for you in the hero deck is the Dark Claw." Yuan Qi said, and suddenly realized something.

"I say, you are not going there just to target Dark Claw, are you?" Yuan Qi looked at Sera suspiciously.

Otherwise, with so many famous competitive decks now, why did Sera choose the hero at first sight?

"Ahem, that's certainly part of the reason..." Sera coughed dryly. "After all, based on my observations, as long as I summon the Dark Claw, your Pearl Tears will be powerless to resist and I'll let you play with them!"

"...Can you use more normal words?" Yuan Qi said unhappily. "Yes, if you really use your hero to summon Dark Claws on me, I will indeed be in dire straits, but..."

"Where did you get the hero deck?"

The fact that Julie was willing to lower herself to become a school bully just for a card called Dragon of the Underworld is enough to show how difficult it is to obtain cards in this world.

As the hero is a well-known competitive card deck in this world, how can a student like Sera obtain it?

"Well...actually, this is partly due to your contribution." Sera patted Yuan Qi's shoulder.

"What does it have to do with me?" Yuan Qi asked puzzledly.

"When you duelled with the Dean of Studies, who is also my brother, he used the Summoner's Mecha, right?" Sera said.

"Yes." Yuan Qi nodded.

"But before the Machine World is Link Summoned, its strength cannot reach professional level. So... have you ever thought about what deck he used before?" Sera chuckled.

"Hero." Yuan Qi understood and said, "He used the hero deck before, right?"

"That's right!" Sera clapped her hands and said, "Now that he has picked up the Machine Realm again, his original Hero Deck has been left unused!"

"That is to say, I can 'temporarily borrow' his hero deck!" Sera clapped her hands.

"You can't keep borrowing it, right?" Yuan Qi frowned.

"Why can't I lend it to him forever?" Sera chuckled twice. "I'll lend it to him once, he won't refuse."

"Then borrow it two or three times. By then, he'll probably be getting a little impatient."

"So I would ask him to lend it to me for a while. He might be reluctant at first, but I am his sister after all, so he would definitely agree in the end."

"Next, as long as I use the "Drag" technique, I can borrow his temporarily until I have my own hero deck!" Sera said seriously.

"I don't think it will work." Yuan Qi waved his hand, thinking that Sera was daydreaming.

Even if the Dean of Studies is using Summoner Mecha now, it doesn't mean that he is willing to put his hero deck in the hands of others.

And what if one day you get tired of using the Summoner Mecha and want to play a hero?

Anyway, Yuan Qi has no intention of lending out his puppet desserts.

"Snapped!"

Sera slammed a black card box onto the table.

"Guess what this is." Sera raised her eyebrows.

Yuan Qi was silent and looked at Ai beside him.

"There really is a hero in there." Ai simply sensed the aura emanating from the deck and said to Yuan Qi in surprise, "Could your dean be a sister-con?!"

"..."

"Alright, alright. He's the Dean of Duelist Academy," Sera said with a pout. "There's no such thing as too many cards to get. Maybe he'll figure out a way to rebuild his heroes and won't bother asking me to return them."

"I still find it outrageous." Yuan Qi said with a strange look on his face, "It's as if you suddenly grew from 1.46 meters to 1.7 meters."

"I'm clearly 1.5 meters tall!!!" Sera gritted her teeth as she walked out from behind the table. Her bare white feet treaded the floor. She walked to the wall and pointed at a red line marking 1.5 meters. Then she stood next to the line and said, "Look! My height is 1.5 meters!"

Sera's hair was indeed exactly aligned with the red line.

but……

"You can lie to me, but don't lie to yourself." Yuan Qi looked at Sera with pity and said, "By the way, I think you might be only 1.4 meters tall."

"Damn it, let's duel! I'm going to kill you with Dark Claw!!!" Sera picked up the hero deck and roared at Yuan Qi.

"No, I have an appointment with Teacher Alice later this evening," Yuan Qi declined. "Besides, are you able to use heroes at your current duel level?"

"If I can't use it, do you think he would lend it to me?" Sera said calmly, "I've already said that among us, I'm the strongest besides you."

"So no matter how fast you run, I won't be left behind." Sera put away her usual playful expression and stood in front of Yuan Qi with a serious expression. Her childish voice contained a firm determination:

"So, when you are in trouble, when you are in danger, when you are unable to solve the problem alone."

"Come depend on me."

"Yes." Yuan Qi nodded solemnly, "I understand."

"Well... a hero can indeed help." Ai also nodded.

"Just say 'hmm'!" Sera frowned and bit her lower lip.

"Answer otherwise?" Yuan Qi was confused.

"You...I...Ahhhhhh!!!" Sera stomped her little feet, which were as white as lotus roots, making a soft sound on the floor.

"Get out." Sera pointed at the door unhappily.

"Huh?" Yuan Qi was even more confused. Didn't you just say you wanted me to rely on you? And now you're kicking me out.

"You...you go out for a while." Sera's tone softened, "I have something personal to attend to."

"Oh, so that's it." Yuan Qi expressed his understanding and left the activity room quietly.

“Squeak—Snap!”

After Yuan Qi left, Sera's little face suddenly turned as red as a ripe apple, like fire.

"Asshole!" Sera waved her pink little fist fiercely, "I did this for you! And all you said was 'Hmm'?!"

"Asshole! Asshole! Asshole!!!"

Chapter 36: He exudes a scent that I hate.

Of course, Zhu Xiu would not simply lend his hero deck to Sera.

Even if he is the Dean of Duelist Academy, those rare cards didn't just come out of nowhere!

And he just has more channels to obtain cards than ordinary duelists.

It doesn't mean that he can easily get a bunch of decks.

So, when Sera, his half-sister, asked him to borrow a hero deck, Zhu Xiu refused.

"The Bug Demon deck is too weak. I want a more powerful deck!" Sera said with a pout.

"That's enough for you to become a professional duelist," Zhu Xiu said calmly. "Before that, take your time saving up the cards for your second deck."

"That would be too slow," Sera frowned.

"Why are you in such a hurry? You are only 17 years old... almost 18, right?" Zhu Xiu lowered his head to deal with the documents in his hands without raising his head.

"But Yuan Qi is only 16!" Sera said dissatisfiedly.

"Why are you competing with that monster? He wants to become the Duel King."

That’s right, in Zhu Xiu’s eyes, Yuan Qi has been classified as someone similar to Purlivia, that is, someone who can become the Duel King.

"No." Sera clenched her fists and said, "I don't want to be thrown away like this!"

"You..." Zhu Xiu suddenly raised his head, a white light flashed in his black pupils. He walked out from behind the desk in two or three steps, patted Sera's shoulder excitedly and said, "Have you finally woken up?!"

"Um... I guess so." Sera looked at the excited Zhu Xiu and felt a little at a loss.

"I've always felt that as long as you're willing to work hard, with your talent, becoming a top duelist, or even a Duel King, wouldn't be a problem. Now that you're willing to do so, I can't just sit back and watch!" Zhu Xiu pushed his glasses and said, "I can lend you a hero deck. You can return it to me anytime you want!"

"Really?!" Sera said excitedly. Although she felt that Zhu Xiu might have misunderstood something, it didn't matter.

"but."

"but?"

Zhu Xiu took out his summoner machine world and said calmly: "You have to beat me."

"You want me to use Bugbear to defeat your Summoner Mecha?" Sera said, a drop of sweat on her forehead. "Isn't the gap between the two decks quite big?"

"If you can't do it, forget it." Zhu Xiu said expressionlessly, "Show me your strength."

"Come on, let's duel!"

"Don't worry, this is the office, let's go to the training room."

"..."

In the end, Sera killed Zhu Xiu with a miracle. It was really a tough duel!

Zhu Xiu: I released an entire ocean of water and I still have to pretend that I didn’t release any water.

"Forget it. Anyway, I'm the only one who can catch up with him now. No rush, no rush. Take your time." A strange smile appeared on Sera's little face. Then she threw herself on her bed and rolled on the bed holding her quilt.

"Hey hey hey..."

What Sera didn't know was that at this moment, outside the door of the activity room.

Xuefeng was looking at Yuan Qi with an embarrassed expression.

"Um... I didn't hear anything!" Xuefeng waved his hand.

"It doesn't matter if you heard it. With Sera's personality, she will soon take out her hero deck to show off in front of you." Yuan Qi said indifferently.

"Uh, that's not what I meant..." Xuefeng pursed his lips and suddenly said, "Is it still not enough?"

"Ok?"

"Is there still no way I can help you now?" Xuefeng lowered his eyes, put his hands behind his back and twisted them nervously.

"You have helped me a lot." Yuan Qi said.

"But... I finally caught up, but I feel like I've been left behind again." Xuefeng muttered dissatisfiedly.

"We're very close." Yuan Qi said, "You've become very strong, so there's no need to rush."

"And you guys always say you'll catch up with me... Honestly, I feel weird about that too." Yuan Qi touched his hair. "Even if you catch up with me, the way I interact with you won't change."
