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

With a flick of his finger, Soreva tapped Yuzu's head and said with a smile,

"Leave it to me. I happen to have some cards here that are quite suitable for this deck. Of course, this isn't for free. If you can gain my approval during the special training against LDS, I will give you the whole deck. Otherwise, you'll have to take your cards back. How about it?"

Hearing that Soleva wasn't just giving her a free ride, but rather a test, Yuzu Hiiragi's fighting spirit was immediately ignited, and she agreed:

"I understand! Mr. Soreva, I will earn your approval and get this deck!"

Chapter 44 Zero's Identity, Yuzu Also Wants to Link Summon

"Soreva, are they all your friends?"

Watching Yuzu and the other two leave, Soleva heard Zero's voice in her ear and immediately replied:

"Hmm...they're my students. What's wrong? Why are you asking this all of a sudden? Did you discover something?"

With that glowing body, she floated in front of Soreva, and Zero shook her head, saying:

"I don't know, but I have a feeling that the girl has a familiar aura."

"That's it..."

A girl? It seems Zero is talking about Yuzu? But why does Zero sense a familiar aura from Yuzu?

Shaking his head, Soreva felt that he had no clue at all and had no idea how to deal with the matter. He might as well think about how to build this deck first, which might be useful in Yuya Sakaki's special training.

"Zero Yi, look what's here?"

Upon opening the MD system, Soreva immediately pointed at it and asked Zero a question.

However, Zero glanced at the direction Soreva was pointing and tilted her head slightly. She didn't understand why Soreva would ask such a strange question, but she still answered:

"Hmm...the table?"

"All right……"

With a sigh, Soreva was certain that even though Zero had become like a spirit behind him, she still couldn't see the MD system.

"But, there's a ghost behind me..."

Twisting her hair, and recalling the characteristics of Yu-Gi-Oh! protagonists that someone had once compiled online, Soreva couldn't help but start imagining things.

"How about I get a cooler hairstyle next time, and maybe change my name for fun?"

But after thinking about the name and the series of identity documents that the MD system had automatically assigned to him, Soreva gave up.

After all, causing trouble for yourself is no fun.

However, Soreva still intends to extract as much value as possible from the psionic energy behind it.

"Speaking of which, Zero, do you know anything about dueling?"

"Of course! I'm really good at duels!"

Watching Zero pat her chest as if boasting, Soreva suddenly felt that she seemed to have changed a little, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

However, Zero seemed oblivious and continued speaking:

"I witnessed my father create the Physical Image System, and he was also the first duelist to use it!"

"Wow, that's amazing..."

Just as Soreva was about to brush it off, he suddenly realized something was wrong, instantly stood up from the table, and asked Zero,

"Zero, are you sure your father is the creator of the physical image system?"

Zero didn't understand why Soreva had suddenly become so agitated, but she still nodded and said:

"That's right!"

"If I remember correctly, the person who created the physical imaging system should be... Akaba Zero, the creator of Lion Corporation and LDS!"

After taking out his computer and typing in the name of Akama Zero, Soreva saw his photo: a middle-aged man with dark skin and a buzz cut.

"Lingyi, look, is this your father?"

Looking at the man's image on Soreva's computer screen, Zero slowly shook her head after a moment of silence:

"I...don't remember what my father looks like, and I'm not sure if he is my father."

"That's...ok."

Seeing that the clues to Zero's side had gone cold, Soreva could only sigh. However, looking at the name of Zero's offspring in the section of Zero's information, Soreva fell into thought.

Zero King, Zero Girl, Zero Iori—these names clearly come from the same family. Zero Iori's identity is probably closely related to LDS. But for now… well, let's wait until the day of the duel and ask the Akama family.

"In that case, help me build this deck, Zero. Which card do you think would be suitable to include? I'm thinking of using Yuzu's Synchro Monster [Gentle Breeze] and adding a monster from the [Gentle Breeze] series, what do you think?"

"Hmm... If it's [Gentle Breeze], how about this [Gentle Breeze's Descendant, Pilica]? This effect can be used against other WIND monsters too?"

"Sure, but this card is a psychic type... Speaking of which, since the Water Machine was banned, I haven't used my two [Emergency Teleport] cards and the Phantom Beast Machine Mini Axis for a long time. It might be just right to use it here."

So, with Soreva and Zero's continuous refinement, the [Wind Witch] deck gradually took shape. The only thing that Zero found a little strange was that, even though it should have been her first time seeing [Wind Witch], she felt a strange sense of familiarity.

"Perhaps it's just my imagination?"

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

"Mr. Soleva, please guide me!"

"Okay, come on, Yuzu."

Seeing Soleva and Yuzu standing in what looked like a giant kitchen, about to begin their duel, the three children cheered excitedly. However, Yuya Sakaki's expression was not so good.

"What should we do? We're supposed to have our duel with the LDS people in just one day, and this problem has arisen. Doesn't this mean that Yuzu and I have let Mr. Sorewa down?"

Shiunin Sora, who was beside him, knew what Sakaki Yuya was referring to, and immediately sighed, offering comfort to Sakaki Yuya:

"Yuya, this isn't your or Yuzu's fault, is it? Besides, you can still use the other cards, right? Just try to avoid using those two cards."

Upon hearing this, Yuya Sakaki could only nod in agreement:

"It seems that this is the only way now."

In the duel arena, Yuzu Hiiragi, who had the first move, looked at her hand and clenched her fist tightly:

If that card can be successfully summoned, this is a great starting hand. We must succeed, so that we can surprise Professor Soreva!

Immediately, Yuzu drew a card from her hand and announced it to Soreva:

"I activate the effect of [Fairy O1], reveal one Level 7 or higher monster from my hand to my opponent, and Special Summon this card from my hand!"

Upon hearing the card name [Angel O1] from Hiiragi Yuzu, Soreva was momentarily stunned. He vaguely remembered this card; he had once copied a fun, unconventional deck that included this card.

If he remembers correctly, the card's follow-up effect is to summon an additional Level 7 or higher monster in addition to the Normal Summon.

Yuzu Hiiragi's [Gensou] deck seems to have several high-level monsters, so including this card is a normal move.

However, if a monster of level 7 or higher is summoned by a superior summon, two sacrifices are required. Is that really worth it? Or does Yuzu Hiiragi have some other means of summoning by a superior summon?

Just as Soreva was anticipating what kind of high-level [Illusion] monster Hiiragi Yuzu would display, the monster she revealed left Soreva speechless:

"The monster I'm presenting is, [Archangel Christia]!"

"Then, I will summon [Phantom Musician Aria]!"

Seeing two angels with different appearances appear in front of Hiiragi Yuzu, Soreva stroked his chin and began to speculate:

"Two now, so she can summon [Archangel Christia], right? Is she going to do that?"

At that moment, a hint of hesitation flashed across Yuzu's face, but the next second, as if she had made up her mind, she shouted out:

"I used [Angel O1] and [Phantom Musician Aliya] as materials, set up link arrows, and link summoned them!"

Miraculous notes! Angelic light! Guided by the conductor's baton, link the powers! Link and summon! Now on the stage, let the song of celebration resound! [Hamonist of the Phantom Orchestra]!

"????"

Chapter 45: The Failure and Recognition of the Link

"Link Summon? Impossible, right? Even if Yuzu has Link Monster cards, she's still using the Duel Disk from this generation, isn't she? How could she summon a Link Monster without the Extra Zone?"

To Soreva's astonishment, a cold wind whistled past, and Yuzu Hiiragi's Duel Disk on her wrist emitted an "ERROR" sound, but the monster she wanted to summon was nowhere to be seen.

"Failed?"

Despite the same thought arising in both Soreva's and Hiiragi Yuzu's minds, Hiiragi Yuzu remained undeterred, slamming her right hand hard against the Duel Disk on her left wrist, as if that would somehow enable her to successfully link and summon the Duel Disk.

"Success! Hurry up and succeed!"

"Wait, Yuzu!"

Seeing that Yuzu Hiiragi's right hand was bleeding from the blow, Soleva rushed over and tightly grasped Yuzu's hand, saying:

"Yuzu, don't make things harder on yourself. It's not your fault that you couldn't successfully link summon; it's just that your Duel Disk doesn't have the function to support link summon."

"There's no... feature that supports Link Summoning?"

Yuzu looked up, staring blankly at Soleva in front of her. Soleva noticed that Yuzu's face was now covered in tears.

In response to Yuzu Hiiragi's question, Soleva nodded emphatically and removed the Duel Disk from his left wrist:

“That’s right, Yuzu, as you can see, my Duel Disk is different from yours. It has an extra area that can support Link Summoning. If you don’t believe me, let’s exchange Duel Disks and then duel.”

However, upon hearing Soreva's suggestion, Yuzu Hiiragi quickly blushed and waved her hands, saying:

"No, no, I believe Mr. Soreva didn't lie to me. It's just... the duel just now..."

Upon hearing Yuzu Hiiragi mention the duel that had just taken place, Soleva immediately smiled and said:

"Although I can't summon it, I still remember the effect of [Hamonist of the Phantom Melody Sacred Flower]. Yuzu, tell me, if you successfully summon [Hamonist of the Phantom Melody Sacred Flower], what do you plan to do?"

"Activate the first effect of [Hamonist of the Illusory Melody Flower]..."

Before Hiiragi Yuzu could finish speaking, Soreva's finger had already tapped Hiiragi Yuzu's head:

"Look at the effect of [Hamonist of the Phantom Melody]: during the turn this effect is activated, you can only Special Summon [Phantom Melody] monsters. You have already Special Summoned [Angel O1] this turn, so this effect cannot be activated."

Soreva's words instantly made Yuzu's face turn pale:

"So I……"

“You should have used [Angel O1] and [Phantom Musician Aria] as materials to Superior Summon [Archangel Christia]. Look at my hand.”

With that, Soreva showed his hand to Hiiragi Yuzu.
