Alchemy?
Yuei Vu was stunned for a moment, he didn’t expect Isis to mention this suddenly.
However, he still nodded his head lightly, indicating that he had heard of it.
He knew that alchemy played an important role in Yu-Gi-Oh. The legendary seven Millennium Items that run through the whole drama of DM were forged by the alchemy of ancient Egypt.
In addition, looking at the entire Yu-Gi-Oh series, the plot character most associated with “Alchemy” should be the Alchemy course teacher of the Duel Academy in “Yu-Gi-Oh GX”, Mr. Daitokuji.
That’s right, in the GX plot, alchemy has become a compulsory course in the academy, and all students have to learn it…
It could also be seen from this that under the background of Yu-Gi-Oh worldview, even alchemy, a mysterious thing, was closely connected with card-playing.
And Mr. Daitokuji in GX had a lot of background. This teacher was originally a powerful alchemist and was ordered by someone to find the legendary artifact “Philosopher’s Stone” that can make the impossible possible.
But during the long journey, he exhausted his life and suffered from an incurable disease. So before his life came to an end, he pinned his hope on the alchemy taboo’s mystery of “human transmutation”.
And unlike a certain brothers duo, he really succeeded…Mr. Daitokuji successfully used alchemy to create a brand new body to house his soul. While doing so successfully extended his lifespan, he soon discovered that it was only a stopgap measure as his new body continued to crumble.
So before his demise, he chose his favorite and most promising student in the Duel Academy, Yuki Judai, to be his successor and entrusted his wish to Judai, telling the boy that he was a natural top alchemist. This teacher believed that if it was Judai, he would definitely be able to control the power of the “Philosophy’s Stone”.
"
"
After that, he handed over the legendary artifact “Philosophy’s Stone” that he found after searching for many years to Judai.
Well, by the way, the “Philosopher’s Stone” in this world was also a card, the kind used for playing cards.
This is Yu-Gi-Oh. JPG.
“To be honest, we, the tomb guards, have a lot of research on alchemy.” Isis said, “If you don’t feel disgusted… this is a small gesture, I hope you can accept it .”
As she spoke, she took out a small pendant from somewhere in the white robe, and gently placed it on the coffee table in front of the sofa.
It was a crystal green pendant, which was strung up with a slender rope, folded and glowing in a golden light projected from the window onto the coffee table.
Yuei Vu picked up the pendant and seemed to be aware of the supernatural aura contained in it.
“This is……”
“It’s just an ordinary spiritual weapon.” Isis smiled lightly, “I made it with my own hands through alchemy, and if a person wears it, it will be somewhat helpful if they encounter Shadow Games.
Of course, in terms of your strength, that bit of help may be negligible. But take it as a talisman, after all we have caused you so much trouble…”
Yuei Vu roughly understood.
He remembered that in “Yu-Gi-Oh! GX”, Yuki Judai had strayed into the forbidden area of a certain “grave keeper” clan (it had nothing to do with the Ishtar family), and was forced to undergo a duel. After he won the duel and passed the trial, the leader of the grave keeper clan gave half of the pendant as a gift to Judai.
"
"
At that time, the leader told Judai that this was a special item for Shadow Games. If Judai has to play Shadow Games someday in the future, this item would definitely help him.
That prop may be similar in nature to what Isis gave him now, and it was a “spiritual weapon” that contains extraordinary power.
However, the Millennium Items, although they were also Shadow Game props, they were not in the category of “spiritual weapons”. That kind of thing was a “divine artifact”, which was of a higher grade, and other small props can’t be compared with it at all.
It could be seen that Isis may indeed feel very sorry for the trouble she caused to Yuei Vu, and she really wanted to do something for him as compensation as much as she could.
On the contrary, Yuei Vu felt a little embarrassed.
Marik watched quietly, thinking—
——Big sister didn’t even make amulets for me!
Of course, he himself also knew alchemy.
Yuei Vu was very grateful for Isis’s gift, but to be honest, the power of this spiritual weapon was really not strong, and it had little practical significance other than being beautiful.
So Yuei Vu thought for a while, and then asked: “Then this spiritual weapon… can it be shaped into other shapes?”
Isis froze for a moment, then nodded slightly.
“If you are not satisfied, you can ask for it, and I will try my best to satisfy it.” She said, “You can shape it into any shape you want.”
Yuei Vu’s mind quickly became active.
With my current strength, this spiritual weapon may not be very useful…but it has other wonderful uses!
Yuei Vu looked at Isis: “Then can I ask… Is this alchemy difficult to learn?”
Isis was a little surprised as if she didn’t expect him to ask such a question.
But she still replied: “Alchemy is a piece of ancient knowledge. Similar to science in modern society, this is a knowledge that everyone can master as long as they study hard.
If you want to delve deeper, it is naturally very difficult. Just as there is no end to the path of science, since ancient times no one dared to say that he had thoroughly explored the mysteries of alchemy…”
Indeed, after all, alchemy in “Yu-Gi-Oh! GX” has become a compulsory course for all students, so it must not be difficult to get started. But if you want to study in-depth and become an advanced alchemist like Daitokuji, it may not be possible for ordinary people.
…Oh, Yuki Judai may be an exception.
According to Daitokuji, he felt that Judai didn’t need to study or practice at all, and he was born to be a master of alchemy.
Who knew if this has anything to do with the ten generations’ love of “exchange five for one”…
“However, if you just want to learn how to make this spiritual weapon, you neither need to learn the basics nor need to understand the principles of alchemy. You just need to remember the required materials and production steps.”
Isis changed the subject, paused, and asked, “Mr. Yuei Vu…are you interested in alchemy?”
“Well, I’m quite interested.” Yuei Vu fiddled with the exquisite pendant in his hand, “I’ve heard of the magic of alchemy for a long time, but I never had the chance to touch it myself.”
“I see.” Isis nodded, “It’s great if you’re interested. If you want to learn how to make this spiritual weapon, I can teach you.
In fact, this is a simple prop, and it is very easy to make…”
“Ah, thank you very much.”
This was a windfall.
I didn’t expect to come here and turn around, and I can actually get new skills for nothing!
Although it may be useless for him to learn how to refine such a simple spiritual weapon,…
…It could be sold to screwball players!
Hearing that this pendant can be squeezed into various shapes, Yuei Vu immediately thought of screwball players.
Screwball players like to spend their hard-earned money to buy something of unknown meaning…
Another way to make money!
“But it’s really an accident.” Isis smiled, “Because you are closer to Seto, I thought you, like him, would be more willing to believe in modern science than alchemy.”
“…”
Yuei Vu pondered for a while and said: “This is a rumor. President Kaiba and I are only card friends at best, and we are not that close…”
