Traveling in reverse through the Yu-Gi-Oh! world with the MD system

So, Zero came up with a good idea: whenever the two of them went shopping, Soreva would become their bag carrier. Often, when they finished shopping, Soreva's hands and even his neck would be covered with bags of all sizes.

On one occasion, after Yuma bumped into her, he even thanked Soreva.

Because before Sorewa appeared, the person Akari grabbed to carry her bags was Yuma. Oh, and sometimes when Akari and Tetsuo's sister Tetsuko were shopping together, Tetsuo would also be grabbed.

I wonder if that's how Yuma and Tetsuo first met.

Today, on the weekend, a day when Akari was supposed to go shopping with Zero again, Soreva couldn't hide the joy on his face. He had arranged to cover for Gosh today, and finally wouldn't be dragged off to carry her bags.

He'd rather play several high-stakes poker games than carry a bag again!

"Hello, I've arrived!"

Seeing Soreva rush in with a joyful expression, Gorsh's face instantly showed surprise. He had never seen anyone so excited about dueling with Kaito.

However, Ghosh quickly realized that it was understandable that Soreva could be so optimistic, since he had never fought Kaito before.

Soreva was also stunned when he saw Ghosh by the door:

"Huh? Didn't you say the duel was my responsibility? What are you still doing here, Ghosh?"

Upon hearing this, Ghosh immediately rolled his eyes at him:

"I've entrusted the duel to you, so can't I just stand by and watch?"

"That seems to be true."

Unfortunately, before Soreva and Ghoshdo could exchange more than a few words, footsteps sounded behind them. Turning around, they saw Kaito had already reached the doorway, coldly addressing them:

"The experiment is about to begin. No matter who my opponent is, don't stand here blocking the way. Get ready to face failure."

After saying that, Kaito pushed past the two and walked straight to the center of the dueling arena.

Seeing this, Ghosh patted Soreva on the shoulder and said, "You... good luck," before turning around and slipping away to a safe place to watch the fight.

Soleva sighed, walked into the dueling arena, and stood opposite Kaito, shouting:

"Then today, I will be your duel opponent."

"Stop wasting time, unfold your Duel Disk and let's duel!"

Kaito's blunt words immediately made Soleva's lips twitch. He materialized a silver-white Tyrannosaurus Rex eyeshadow tattoo and a Tyrannosaurus Rex D panel, and shouted at Kaito again:

"Mine is ready, what about yours?"

Then, he saw a dark blue tattoo suddenly appear on Kaito's left eye, and a crescent-shaped D-panel flew out from somewhere and landed on his left wrist.

"Photon Transformation!"

With that shout, Kaito's black trench coat turned pure white.

"Duel!" ×2

Chapter 264 Six for Two, Unsummonable Photon Dragon

"Then I'll go first! My turn, draw a card!"

Kaito immediately seized the initiative, sending a magic card into his D-deck.

"I activate the Spell Card [Photon Veil] from my hand! This card can return three LIGHT monsters from my hand to the Deck, and then add three LIGHT monsters from the Deck to my hand!"

This scene instantly made Soreva exclaim in his heart:

A handwashing sign right off? That's impressive!

However, Soreva wasn't sure if he was seeing things, but he seemed to see from afar that the three monsters Kaito added to his hand looked the same? Are you sure you won't get stuck with a bad hand like that?

However, before Soreva could figure out the answer, Kaito sent another magic card into the D-pad:

"Next, I will activate the Quick-Play Spell [Photon Guidance]! This card can be Special Summoned in Attack Position from 1 Level 4 or lower LIGHT monster added from the Deck to your hand!"

I will Special Summon [Dawnbreaker]!

A card was slammed down, and a monster clad in pristine white plate armor, wielding a longsword, and sporting a flowing red cloak instantly appeared on Kaito's field. Kaito immediately activated its effect:

"When this card is Special Summoned, you can Special Summon one monster with the same name from your hand! Come, another [Dawnbreaker]!"

As the second heavily armored knight appeared, Kaito's voice continued to ring out.

"Then comes the effect of the second [Dawnbreaker]! Special Summon another [Dawnbreaker] from your hand!"

Now, Soreva finally understood why Kaito did this. There was no fake card that could be used once per turn. It's just a pity that the restrictions on hand special summons and card names made this effect seem less fake.

However, this effect still has a lot of potential, after all, [Dawnbreaker] is a level 4 card, and with the huge Rank 4 system, it is not without its fun aspects.

Of course, this is all predicated on Konami being willing to buff the series. Without buffs, three single cards are practically useless.

However, despite losing three cards, Kaito now has three level 4 monsters firmly on his field, and even Soreva is starting to wonder what kind of monster he plans to Xyz Summon.

After all, so many Level 4 monsters must be intended for Xyz Summoning, right? It couldn't possibly be some kind of High-Level Summon, could it?

However, Kaito immediately started to slap Soleva in the face:

"Then, I will sacrifice the two [Dawnbreakers] on the field to perform a Superior Summon!"

At that moment, Soreva felt as if he were being slapped repeatedly across the face, and his entire face turned black.

"Damn! It really is a high-level summon!"

As the two [Dawnbreakers] turned into specks of light, these glittering particles of light gathered around Kaito in the next second, transforming into something resembling a trident.

Kaito then grabbed the crimson trident and hurled it heavily into the sky. Blue particles of light instantly surged from it, filling the dueling arena.

"The galaxy that shines in the darkness, transforms into a beacon of hope, and dwells within my servant! The embodiment of light descends here! Appear, [Galaxy-Eyed Photon Dragon]!"

"Galaxy-Eye... Photon Dragon?"

As the form of the Photon Dragon, which he had used to fight Kaito in the ARC-V world, gradually materialized within the blue light, Soleva felt a sudden wave of helplessness.

"Is this karma? Now I'm the one who's become the enemy of Photon Dragon? I don't even have a single card that can search for Photon Dragon."

Gazing at the pale blue photon dragon, Kaito was filled with excitement. Although he had always possessed this card, he had never successfully summoned this dragon before.

Now, with the help of Dr. Fika's research on photon transformation, he has successfully mastered the power of photons and has finally managed to summon this photon dragon, which can be called the bane of Xyz.

Then, he can use the power of this dragon to hunt [No.] cards and completely rescue Yang Dou!

However, despite his inner excitement, Kaito maintained a cold expression when facing Soleva.

"Feel honored, this is [Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon]'s debut. Now let me see if you're worthy of being the first opponent it defeats. That's it for this round!"

What was clearly a normal provocation and declaration of war sounded strange to Druid on the second floor:

"This is... Kaito-sama's first time? Why isn't Kaito-sama's opponent me, but this newcomer? I should be Kaito-sama's first opponent!"

But Ghosh, standing next to Druwa, disagreed, saying:

"I asked you if you wanted to participate in an experimental duel, and you refused outright. Luckily, Soleva begged me for help back then, otherwise I would be the one getting wrecked by Kaito now."

However, the smug Ghosh failed to notice that Druva's gaze towards him was growing increasingly fierce.

"But you never said that the opponent in the experimental duel was Lord Kaito! If I had known that my opponent was Lord Kaito, I would have been willing to be humiliated by him!"

"Hey, Drew, what are you doing? Let go! I can't breathe!"

........................

Upon hearing Kaito's provocation, Soleva immediately responded:

"Honored? Then let me tell you, [Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon] is not invincible! My turn, draw a card!"

However, upon seeing the card he had drawn, Soreva's face darkened again.

It's not like it's Photon Dragon or Residual Light Dragon? Is this fate? They're really ruthless to prevent me from using [Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon] against Kaito, but...

At least you can search now. Even if you don't get it, I'll make sure you can get started using the search function!

"I activate the effect of [Metroidvania] in my hand! Send 1 LIGHT monster from my hand (other than this card) to the Graveyard, and Special Summon this card in Defense Position!"

I choose to send [Galaxy Mage] from my hand to the graveyard!

Instantly, a warrior clad in silver and gold armor slowly appeared on Soleva's field. Soleva then activated its second effect.

"Furthermore, when this card is successfully Special Summoned, once per turn, you can add one [Galaxy] monster from your Deck to your hand. The card I chose to add to my hand is... [Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon]!"

"What!?"

Upon hearing Soleva's words, Kaito's pupils dilated in shock. He hadn't expected Soleva to also possess the [Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon]. But then he remembered that Soleva was also an employee of the Heart Tower, and Kaito immediately came up with a reason that could convince himself.

"Was it a backup plan made because I couldn't control the Galaxy Eye? But I will prove to my father through this duel that I am the only one who can control the Galaxy Eye. And only I can save Yang Dou!"

Meanwhile, Soreva's face darkened instantly upon seeing the system notification that suddenly popped up.

"Hey, what do you mean the host doesn't meet the requirements and can't summon [Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon] in the ZEXAL world?!"

Chapter 265 The Stolen Light Wave, The Jumping Photon

"Please unlock this function after unlocking the Photon Transformation skill."

The next line of text that popped up made Soreva so angry he wanted to give it the middle finger:

"Damn it! Couldn't you have reminded me earlier? During the duel, remind me who to ask to unlock this photon transformation for me!"

Despite his frustration, having [Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon] in hand was a victory for Soreva, since he now had a card that had previously been a liability that he could now use to make things work.

"Now, I'll activate the effect of [Galaxy Sword Saint] in my hand! You can activate this effect by revealing one [Photon] monster from your hand to your opponent. Special Summon this card from your hand!"

Revealing the [Galaxy Sword Saint] from his hand, Soreva immediately smiled and flipped over the [Galaxy-Eyed Photon Dragon] he had just drawn.

"So, what I'm showing you is of course [Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon]."

Then, a surge of light appeared, and a swordsman, wielding a longsword in each hand and clad in silver-gray and dark blue armor, appeared on Soleva's field. Although it had a second effect that could be activated, it was of little use to Soleva at the moment, so Soleva simply didn't use it.

Immediately afterwards, Soreva's fingers picked up another card from his hand:

"Also, I hope you haven't forgotten that I haven't Normal Summoned this turn. So, next, I'll Normal Summon this Level 8 [Galaxy Knight]!"

Upon hearing that Soleva was going to summon a monster of such a level, Kaito's eyebrows twitched slightly.

"Could it be that this is also a summoning from a higher level?"

However, none of the monsters on Soleva's field were missing. This monster, wearing a silver-white armor over a black undershirt and wielding a long sword, descended upon Soleva's field.

Soreva's voice followed immediately:
