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

Upon realizing that Soreva was speaking to him, the astral body paused for a moment before offering his answer:

"Now, turning it back into a [No.] card should be enough, right?"

"Is that all? You're really fearless. Aren't you afraid it might resurface and cause trouble again someday? To be on the safe side, you could simply erase its consciousness, right?"

Before Astral could even begin to consider Soreva's safer suggestion, Yuma rushed forward:

"How could they do this! It's far too cruel!"

"Uh……"

Seeing Yuma charging towards him, Soleva immediately raised a hand to his forehead. Although he now understood Yuma's personality, Soleva still felt somewhat helpless in the face of Yuma like this.

"Yuma, don't forget what it did today. If it really takes over your and the Astral Entity's bodies, do you think it will try to erase your consciousness?"

"Keeping such a dangerous creature around could very well lead to it biting you and the astral body someday."

"This……"

Yuma had to admit that what Soreva said was very likely, but his own thoughts still made it difficult for him to agree with Soreva's approach.

Finally, Yuma clenched his fist and said:

"Even so, I don't agree with this approach! Erasing its consciousness, what's the difference between that and killing it!? Perhaps it's still evil now, but even so, I hope it can repent and reform, instead of being directly eliminated!"

Upon hearing Yuma's reply, Soreva immediately sighed and turned away:

"Do as you please. After all, that [No.96 Black Mist] is now in your hands. How you want to do it is your own business, as long as you don't regret it later."

He walked a few steps to the eaves of the Yuma family's house. Just as Soreva was about to call for Orbit Seven to leave, he seemed to remember something and immediately turned around and bent down to speak to Yuma, who was now upside down in his eyes:

"By the way, Yuma, didn't you say you were going to participate in WDC? But I didn't see your name on the WDC registration list. If you don't register soon, you'll miss the registration deadline."

Having said that, Soreva straightened up and addressed Orbit 7.

"Alright, let's go, Orbit Seven."

"Understood, Mr. Sorewa."

Gazing at Soleva, who had already flown far away with its mechanical wings on its back, Yuma finally realized what was happening and quickly chased after it, shouting to Soleva in the air:

"Uncle! Wait a minute! Explain how the registration process works first!!!"

360 chapters of WDC, now open!

"Ha...ha, hello, I want to register for WDC..."

The next day, just as Soreva was sitting peacefully in the security room of the Heart Garden, slacking off, he heard that familiar, heavy breathing sound.

Turning his head to see Yuma's familiar face appear on the screen, Soleva immediately activated video communication and greeted Yuma on the other end of the screen:

"Hey, hello there, Yuma."

The sudden screen lighting up and the sound instantly startled Yuma, whose legs were already a little weak from running, causing him to fall to the ground with a thud. However, at that moment, Yuma's surprise completely outweighed the pain in his buttocks.

Pointing his finger at Soleva on the screen, Yuma immediately stammered out:

"Big, big, big, uncle!?"

"Yes, yes, it's me."

Looking at Yuma with a helpless expression, Soleva began to complain to him.

"Could you please stop stammering when you're surprised? It makes it sound like I'm one of those monsters you summoned."

"Uncle, what are you doing here?"

Seeing the innocent foolishness on Yuma's face when he asked the question, Soreva immediately spread his hands and said:

"I'm an employee of Xinyuan, so it's normal for me to be here, right? Otherwise, how do you think I knew you didn't sign up? You should thank me for choosing to do the work on the operations committee, otherwise I wouldn't have known that you, you little idiot, didn't sign up."

However, in response to Soreva's complaints, Yuma immediately raised his hand and asked a question:

"But since you're a staff member here, why don't you help me register? That way, I won't have to turn down the duel invitations from Tetsuo and the others and come all the way here to register."

"bass!"

Upon hearing Yuma's question, a vein throbbed on Soleva's forehead, and he replied with a forced smile:

"Don't shift the blame for your own forgotten responsibilities onto others! A lot of information on the registration form needs to be filled out by the applicant. Now, I'm sending you the registration form; please fill it out carefully!"

"Yes, I understand!"

Seeing that Soreva seemed genuinely angry, Yuma immediately nodded in agreement.

Immediately afterward, Yuma saw a small window open next to the screen, from which a white sheet of paper with a form printed on it, along with a pen, was handed out.

Taking the paper and pen, Yuma began filling in the form stroke by stroke:

"Name: Tsukumo Yuma; Age: 13..."

The initial content was relatively normal for Yuma, but things gradually started to get strange later on.

"Deck composition? Why is there such a thing?! And why do you have to write it out card by card?"

Hearing Yuma's exclamation, Soreva picked at his ear:

"That's normal, isn't it? What if someone cheats during a duel and changes their hand? In that case, you can easily detect some cheating methods by simply comparing the cards they pre-registered with the cards they actually used in the duel, right?"

"Hmm... there really are people like that!"

Hearing Soleva's explanation, Yuma accepted the reason. After all, even he had seen people cheat in duels.

For example, there was the Sea King and the Land King back then.

However, while he accepted the reason, Yuma also began to have doubts:

"But what if I find that my current deck isn't working well and I want to make changes?"

In response to Yuma's question, Soreva immediately pointed to the form on the screen and said to Yuma:

"Turn it over and take a look at the other side."

Following Soreva's words, Yuma actually turned the paper over to the other side and saw this separate table:

"Side...? Uncle, what is this?"

"You can think of this side as a replacement library. You can list the cards you want to replace here. When you need to make changes to your deck, you can only replace cards from this side with cards from your original deck."

After hearing Soleva's explanation, Yuma suddenly understood and immediately started filling out the form. However, he had only been filling it out for a short while when a bitter expression appeared on his face:

"This side... only has 15 cards? Uncle, isn't that a bit too few?"

Unfortunately, Soleva remained unmoved by Yuma's complaints. He calmly picked up his coffee, took a sip, and said to Yuma:

"15 cards should be enough for most people, right? Yuma, you should take this opportunity to carefully select your cards. Don't always put in cards that are only useful in specific situations and are meaningless in most situations."

Upon hearing Soreva's criticism, Yuma immediately began to mutter in dissatisfaction:

"What do you mean by 'unclear meaning'? Haven't I used my card a lot of times?"

"is it?"

Seeing that Yuma still wouldn't admit it, Soreva immediately grinned and said,

"If I remember correctly, last night's [No. 96 Black Mist] used your card, Yuma, right? It didn't even have the strength to fight back at the end. Isn't that enough to prove that there was something wrong with the card you used?"

"How can this be considered?!"

Although he was still stubbornly retorting, Soleva could clearly hear the wavering in Yuma's tone, so Soleva didn't say anything more. He just took another sip of coffee and smiled at Yuma.

Yuma felt a little flustered by Soleva's smiling expression, so he quickly filled out the form and stuffed it back into the small window along with the pen.

"Anyway, I've filled out the form. Don't forget to register me, sir!"

With that, Yuma made a face at Soleva on the screen and then ran away.

Seeing this, Soreva couldn't help but chuckle. He immediately picked up Yuma's application form and muttered to himself:

"Really, I'm not senile, how could I forget..."

After saying that, Soreva picked up Yuma's registration form and walked towards the information department, asking the staff there to help him enter Yuma's registration information.

Then, until the opening of WDC, Soleva, Kaito, Yuma, and Astral were all enjoying a long-awaited period of peace.

During these few days, no more [No.] cards appeared, and Soreva didn't even encounter any more players with cards III, IV, or V. This continued until the start of the WDC qualifiers...

Today, the Heart Garden, which is rarely open to the public, finally opened its doors to numerous WDC participants, and the crowded crowd quickly entered the Heart Garden.

And all of this was what Soreva could see from the monitoring room in the Heart Garden. But just as Soreva was idly leaning against the railing of the monitoring room…

"Hooray, so many duelists have come! How exciting!"

"Please don't get so excited, Ghosh. After all, our job as operations committee members is to oversee WDC. You should calm down a bit!"

Faced with Druwa's sarcastic remarks, Ghosh immediately retorted with a pout:

"Tch! You boring, cold-blooded woman!"

"Huh? What did you say?"

Seeing the two so tense, to the point where even he couldn't relax and slack off, Soreva immediately complained:

"Ugh~ Can anyone tell these two to shut up for a second?!"

"You lazy bum, you have absolutely no right to say that!" ×2

Chapter 361 Youma and others in the Heart Garden

"Okay, okay, then I won't slack off, alright?"

Seeing that the two who were arguing suddenly turned their anger on him, Soreva immediately raised his hands in surrender, and stretched as if to say,

"Then, I'll go and take a look at the scene."

"Hmm? Why don't we just watch the surveillance footage here?"

Seeing that Soreva actually planned to go to the Heart Garden site, Ghosh pointed with great confusion to the surveillance footage in front of them, which was densely packed with everything in the Heart Garden.

"But there are always scenes that the surveillance cameras don't capture, right? Besides, even if the surveillance cameras do capture something, there are some subtle things they're doing that you wouldn't know what they're doing, would you?"

As he spoke, Soleva walked toward the elevator door, just as he brushed past Kaito, who had been summoned by Mr. Kokoro. After exchanging greetings, Soleva disappeared behind the elevator door.

As for Soreva's words, both Druva and Ghosh nodded in agreement.
