At this moment, Akari was still reeling from Zero's incredible performance, her brain completely overloaded, and she blankly grasped Zero's outstretched hand.
Seeing that Akari didn't speak, Zero took it as Akari's acceptance and turned to Soreva, who had already retreated to the back seat, and said:
"Soreva, could you please bring me my [Lyrical Robin] deck... and then pick a few more decks with cute card art that Akari-neechan can accept for her to use?"
"Yes."
Soleva hurriedly pulled out several card cases and handed them to Zero from between the seats. Zero, having received the card cases, smiled at Akari beside her.
"Let's duel! But I'll be very strict!"
........................
Soon, Akari recovered from her panic at seeing the ghost and spent the afternoon becoming close friends with Zero, just like best friends.
Even her dueling skills have improved by leaps and bounds, and after a while, she's started to fight quite well. In Soreva's opinion, it seems that Akari could probably teach Yuma a lesson through a duel... without much trouble?
The only thing that Soreva couldn't understand was that Akari's final favorite wasn't those cute little animals or female cards, but a [Demon Lord] deck?
Soreva could only say that he didn't understand, but he was deeply shocked.
"But the sun is almost setting, why hasn't the horse come out yet?"
Just as Soreva was complaining like this, he saw Yuma, Kotori, and a boy he didn't recognize with a blue bowl cut rush out in a hurry.
"Hey, stop playing cards, Yuma and the others have come out, and it seems they've discovered something."
Chapter 259: The real culprit is found; the duel is about to begin.
"Hey, Yuma!"
Hearing a familiar voice from behind, Yuma turned around and saw his sister sticking her head out of the red sports car.
"Looks like you've discovered something. Get in the car!"
"Great! With my sister's car, we're sure to catch the culprit who spread the virus!"
With a cheer, Yuma, pulling Kotori and the class monitor along, rushed towards Akari's sports car and opened the door. But the moment the door opened, he saw someone he hadn't expected:
"Uncle? What are you doing here?"
In response to Yuma's question, Soreva simply said:
"A horse? This isn't the time to ask about that, is it? Aren't you getting in the carriage?"
Yuma then realized that the main task now was to catch the criminal who spread the computer virus, so he quickly pulled the two of them into the car.
However, this made the back seat a bit cramped with four people sitting in it. Fortunately, Yuma and the other two were just children, so they could barely fit in.
Once Yuma and the others were all in the car, Akari asked Yuma about their goal:
"Yuma, tell me, where is that bastard who made all my manuscripts disappear!"
"Yes, there, at a tower that's still under construction!"
Instead of being silenced by Akari's resentment, Yuma, the class monitor with the blue bowl cut, took out his phone, turned on the location tracking, and handed it to Akari.
"Here it is."
"OK, got it. Now, buckle up, let's go!"
After confirming the location, Akari gave a briefing to the group, then stepped on the gas, and the sports car shot off like an arrow, leaving Yuma and the others behind with their wails.
Finally, just as Yuma, Xiaoniao, and the class monitor were feeling dizzy and disoriented from the high-speed sports car, the car finally came to a stop.
"Come down, Yuma, we've arrived."
Huh? Have we arrived yet?
Just as Yuma was still in a daze, he heard two doors open, and Soleva and Akari got out of the car in unison. Seeing this, Yuma quickly pulled Kotori and the class president out of the car as well, and followed the two.
As Yuma followed Soleva and Akari into the still unfinished tower, he couldn't help but ask the class representative beside him with concern:
"Squad leader, are you sure we're here?"
"Yes! I'm absolutely certain! The guy who betrayed me is right here!"
As the two talked, they stepped through a mechanical door, which suddenly made a sound and slowly closed, trapping them inside.
"Are they trying to lock us all up here? It seems this place is indeed very likely connected to that bastard who spread the virus. Luckily, I passed this information to Ghosh and the others when that kid revealed it. I suppose they should be making a move by now?"
After thinking it over, Soreva spoke to the three little ones who were now in a panic.
"Alright, don't panic. Since this door is closed, let's keep going. Maybe we can find an exit?"
"That's right!"
Akari nodded and clenched her fist at this moment, agreeing with Soreva's words.
"That guy who spread the virus and ruined all my drafts had better be here too, so I can teach him a lesson!"
Seeing that the only two adults here had said so, the three children instantly felt relieved, nodded, and were about to follow the two when a voice rang out in the darkness:
"But this is probably your final destination."
Then, the entire area suddenly lit up with patches of pale green screens, and a figure on the platform surrounded by these screens slowly turned around.
"What surprised me a little was that there seemed to be quite a few people here."
Upon seeing the person turn around, Yuma, Kotori, and the class president all showed expressions of astonishment:
"Master Ukyo? What are you doing here?"
"Yuma, there's no need to ask such a stupid question. There's only one possibility for him to be here. This Ukyo-sensei is probably the criminal who spread those computer viruses, right?"
Upon hearing Soreva's words, Ukyo immediately revealed a smug smile:
"That's right. Although I expected the squad leader to find this place, I didn't expect him to bring so many people. But thanks to him, the virus he spread for me will activate in thirty minutes."
Heart Garden City will probably be quite lively then, won't it? It's just a pity you probably won't be able to see that.
The squad leader was immediately filled with fear upon recalling the scene described in Ukyo's words:
"Wouldn't that make me an accomplice?"
Provoked by his words, Ukyo smugly pulled open his collar, revealing a purplish-red "No. 34" badge gleaming around his neck.
"This is [No.] card!"
Just as Yuma exclaimed in surprise and Ukyo laughed triumphantly, the necklace around Yuma's neck suddenly emitted a golden light.
The astral object appeared in Yuma's eyes. Gazing at the symbol, he murmured:
“This is…[No.]’s mark.”
However, his sudden appearance startled Yuma instantly:
"Wow! Didn't you leave?"
"I didn't leave!"
Then, another round of bickering ensued, but to everyone else, it looked like Yuma was arguing with thin air again. Akari had to admit that Yuma was probably really involved in some kind of incident.
Soreva directly activated Zero's power, and after seeing the astral body clearly, he walked straight towards him and Yuma:
“Astral Body, Yuma, you two should stop arguing. The most important thing right now is to stop him from spreading this computer virus.”
Soreva's voice instantly snapped Yuma out of his daze, and he turned to question Ukyo-sensei:
"Teacher, why would you do something so foolish!"
"This is a challenge for me, just like your soaring flight."
As the voice answered, the platform beneath Ukyo's feet slowly descended, bringing him to the same height as the others. Yuma was about to retort that his soaring into the sky was different from the evil deeds he had committed when Soleva pressed down on his shoulder:
“Yuma, there’s no need to talk to him so much. [No.] has the ability to bewitch people and manipulate those they possess into doing evil. Only by defeating him in a duel and taking the [No.] card can he possibly return to normal. Right, Astral?”
Although he didn't know why Soreva knew so much about [No.] Card, Astral nodded in agreement, confirming Soreva's statement.
With the Astral Body certification, Yuma understood that this was the only thing he could do at the moment, and immediately challenged Ukyo:
"Teacher, let's have a duel! If you lose to me, you'd better stop the virus bomb right away!"
Upon hearing the word "duel," the teacher named Ukyo's eyes instantly turned purple, and his entire body seemed to be encased in a purplish-red shell. He excitedly agreed:
"A duel? Fine! If you beat me, I'll stop the bombing! But I wonder if you're even worthy of being my opponent?"
"Then, let me duel with Yuma."
A loud female voice rang out, and Yuma saw his sister slowly walking to his side. His face turned pale instantly. He had been talking about dueling so openly in front of his sister, who had put a dueling ban on him. He was probably going to get a scolding when he got back.
"Sister Akari..."
Upon hearing Yuma's timid voice, Akari immediately uttered news that made Yuma ecstatic:
"Yuma, I will no longer forbid you from dueling."
Chapter 260: Siblings' Team Battle, No. 34: The Computer Beast's Terabyte
However, Akari's next words made Yuma's face instantly fall:
"But I'll be keeping an eye on your duels from now on, so do your best in your next duel, Yuma."
Yuma remembered that his older sister was quite strict when checking his homework, so if that happened during a duel...
Yuma immediately shivered. He suddenly thought that if his sister saw him and his friends fighting again and again despite their repeated defeats, would she drag him into devilish training?
However, seeing Akari beside him who actually needed to borrow a set of D-type glasses from Soreva, Yuma breathed a slight sigh of relief:
"Thankfully, Akari-nee probably doesn't know anything about dueling, so there shouldn't be any grueling training, right?"
With all three of them installing their D-view glasses and unfolding their D-panels, the duel officially began.
"Duel!" ×3
Just as the match began, Kotori also sent her best wishes to Yuma and Akari:
"Yuma, Akari-nee! Do your best!"
The class monitor clasped his hands together and began to pray:
"Please! You have to win! I don't want to be an accomplice!"
"I got the first strike! My turn, draw a card!"
