A Shadow Duelist from an organization called "Seven Stars" launched an undeclared war and attacked the Duel Academy in the middle of the night without any warning. But thanks to the first-year school belle Tenjoin Asuka who stepped forward and bravely defeated the Shadow Duelist who challenged her, the matter was contained.
Within one night, the news spread within Duel Academy.
Tenjoin Asuka, who was originally a star academy, became more famous because of this, and once again became the focus of the whole school's attention. A first-year student bravely accepted the challenge of the Shadow Duelist and even won beautifully, the little girl instantly became a star on campus.
As her direct instructor, Coke Sprite not only received generous rewards from the system but also received commendations from the academy.
Yuei Vu even directly sent a big gift package to Coke Sprite, asking her to choose the cards to optimize the deck construction of herself and her student Asuka.
In addition, Yuei Vu also opened a special limited-time discount channel for her. Within a week, Coke Sprite could enjoy discounts and benefits that were unmatched during normal events.
Asuka, who was the center of attention, had already entered the infirmary.
Shadow Game was not harmless, especially for a girl like Asuka who is doing it for the first time. After it was over, she was sent to the infirmary.
Chika-chan was in Yuei Vu's room at that time (learning to play cards). She received a call in the middle of the night and immediately went to the infirmary to work overtime.
Of course, Yuei Vu quickly followed over to understand the situation.Asuka, the victor of the Shadow Game, was not seriously injured. Although the mental and physical burden was heavy, it was not a big injury.
Chika checked Asuka's body carefully and told her that she should be fine after just two days of rest.
But as the loser of the Shadow Game, Nightshroud's situation is not optimistic.
Asuka had been fighting fiercely with the masked man for so long, and when she finally won, she was surprised to find out——
——Nani, this is actually my brother!?
Asuka, who was supposed to be in a good mood after winning the card game, suddenly felt bad.
She resolutely applied for this school partly to find out the secret of her brother's disappearance. This was also the reason why she would break into the restricted area from time to time and wander around the abandoned dormitory where the accident happened.
As a result, after searching for so long, she finally found him, but he was accidentally killed by herself ???
Fortunately, Yuei Vu, who came with Chika, also helped check Fubuki's condition and immediately told Asuka that her brother was actually fine.
Or rather, it was Asuka who rescued him from the darkness.
Although the body that dueled Asuka was indeed Tenjoin Fubuki, the real person playing cards at that time was not his true form, but an evil existence called Nightshroud – that power was sealed in the black cross-sectional mask on Fubuki's face.
After Tenjoin Fubuki disappeared, he had been trapped in the shackles of Nightshroud. His consciousness was sealed in the deepest part of his body and was almost annihilated. And thanks to Asuka breaking the power of Nightshroud in this Shadow Game, this body was freed.
So it was not Fubuki who was defeated and punished in the Shadow Game, but Nightshroud. The reason why Fubuki hasn't woken up yet is because his own consciousness has been suppressed for too long, and after a while, he could no longer even bear the burden of this body.
Of course, this shouldn't be a big problem. As long as the Nightshroud didn't come back to cause trouble, and there were no other weird dark beings coveting Fubuki's body, as long as they let him lie in bed to recover, waiting for his self-awareness to return, he would be fine.
Asuka still trusted Yuei Vu's words. After all, she grew up listening to the stories of the first Duel King. This conclusion also gave the girl reassurance. If she really killed her brother through a Shadow Game without knowing it, she might not be able to get out of this shadow for the rest of her life.
However, this incident also attracted Yuei Vu's attention.
He originally thought that since Kagemaru was dead, the attack from the "Seven Stars" would have ceased to exist. But now it seemed that he was a little too optimistic now.
So who is behind Seven Stars now?
First of all, he was sure that Kagemaru was dead – he confirmed this with his own eyes, so he could rule out the possibility that the elder director was still behind Seven Stars.
But what he already knew was that Kagemaru had been controlled remotely by Tragoedia before. In fact, the old guy died a long time ago. He was Tragoedia's puppet for a long time.
Is it possible that the "Seven Stars" are recruited and established by Kagemaru has now become Tragoedia's thugs?
The last time the Northern Academy came to the island to hold a friendly match, Yuei Vu had already discovered that Big Lobster was also coveting the cards of the Three Sacred Beasts. Maybe this was all for the sake of the Three Sacred Beasts?
But what Yuei Vu still couldn't figure out was… what's the point of this?
In the original work, the target of the Seven Stars' attack was the seven keys that sealed the Sacred Beasts, but the three Sacred Beasts here were sealed by Yuei Vu. There was no such thing as a key!
Could it be that he wanted Seven Stars to demolish the entire Duel Academy and kill all the living people to violently break the seal?
It didn't seem very realistic.
Moreover, no matter how arrogant Tragoedia was, he should also know that although the Seven Stars were all strong duelists with different backgrounds and abilities, they were still too young to fight Yuei Vu.
It can't be that Big Lobster is worried that our teachers and students upgrade too slowly, so he traveled thousands of miles to arrange to be delivered EXP packs by express delivery, right?
If that's the case, that's too polite. That's a free deal of experience, a card set, and free shipping. The last time a good person was so polite was Mr. Marik from the Battle City era. He was so polite that Yuei Vu felt a little embarrassed…
The attack of the Seven Stars was not a big deal. Judai and others in the original work can handle it. Now that the GX protagonist group has been strengthened to some extent compared with the original work, Yuei Vu believed that even if he ignored a few Shadow Duelists, they should be unable to make any ruckus.
What was more concerning was the movements and intentions of the Big Lobster.
That night, Yuei Vu phoned Mokuba.
"I'm sorry, Brother Yuei Vu, I've been busy here and don't have time to pay attention in person." Mokuba's voice was a little apologetic, "But our specialists here have been investigating the matter you told last time about Kagemaru.
But the people behind the scenes are very cautious, and so far the progress has been limited…"
After a pause, he lowered his voice, and his tone sounded a little weird.
"But about the new information you gave me last time…about the Duel King named Hibiki Koyo?"
"Hmm. What did you find?"
"It really does."
Mokuba paused and seemed to be thinking about his words.
"Remember when the media announced that Hibiki Koyo was ill?"
"Yes, so what?"
"After you mentioned Hibiki Koyo last time, the commissioner of the Kaiba Corp did a deep dive on the matter… but guess what? It's fake."
"What's fake?" Yuei Vu asked.
"The whole thing – the rumor about the Duel King being ill is a complete lie." Mokuba said, "Hibiki Koyo is not ill at all. He is missing and no one knows where he is.
But we also discovered something interesting. Before Hibiki Koyo disappeared, he last received a commission…a mission.
We don’t know what the specific content is, but we know that the client is from a government special operations agency, and the code name is ‘D’… Does it sound familiar? "
Yuei Vu was silent for a moment.
"Get me a plane, Mokuba," he said. "Maybe we should discuss in person."
