Yu-Gi-Oh!: Worldwide Mix, the Ultimate Necromancer Duel

At Duel Academy, she was hailed as a rising star, boasting a brilliant record and rarely suffering defeat.

To be so overwhelmingly and humiliatingly defeated in a single round is simply unbelievable.

Only now did she realize with absolute clarity how narrow-minded and fragile her previous confidence, built on the academy's genius aura, had been.

Yu Chen's calm voice rang out, yet it sounded like the death knell of the game: "Continue to activate the Quick-Play Spell Card—[Mask Change]."

"I'm sending the [Masked Hero Twilight Raven] on the field to the graveyard..."

His declaration was crystal clear, word by word:

"Special Summon—"

"Masked Hero: Dark Demon!!"

"boom--!"

The shadow energy suddenly contracted, then erupted violently!

A dark shadow burst through the veil of darkness with explosive force, descending fiercely!

He was taller and more robust than Muya, his entire body covered in a menacing armor of deep black and dark red, his mask resembling a demon's skull, and his eyes flashing with two scarlet, ferocious lights.

The claws on its arms were not mere decorations, but real weapons radiating a tearing aura. Just by standing there, a suffocating sense of oppression swept across the entire area.

Masked Hero Dark Demon

Dark Attribute / 8-Star / Warrior Type / Special Summon

Attack: 2800 / Defense: 1200

Asuka Tenjouin felt as if her heart was being squeezed by an invisible hand.

Only then did she realize with a start that the crucial [Mask Transformation] quick-attack spell didn't actually have a one-time limit per turn?!

If that's the case, combined with the opponent's unfathomable resource recycling ability... the upper limit of the attack power he can unleash is far more than just killing 8000 health points instantly.

Breaking the 10,000 mark is by no means impossible! Because he clearly still has a [Mask Change] card in his hand that he hasn't used yet.

The difference in strength is so vast, it's like an insurmountable chasm.

You Chen didn't give her any time to process the shock. He raised his arm and pointed at the girl opposite him, whose body was now wide open. His command was concise and ruthless.

"【Masked Hero Dark Demon】, direct attack."

The Dark Demon let out a low, inhuman roar, its scarlet eyes locking onto its target.

The next second, his massive body displayed an eerie speed, transforming into a pitch-black afterimage that tore through space, instantly sweeping across the entire area!

The pair of ferocious claws swung out in a crisscrossing motion, creating a piercing sound as if they were about to tear their opponent and their last hope to shreds!

-2800LP!

"Ugh—!!!"

Asuka Tenjouin let out a short, painful cry of surprise. The force of the virtual impact made her body tremble violently, and she staggered back half a step uncontrollably.

On the duel disk, the number representing life points jumped and flashed wildly, and finally, mercilessly, it returned to zero.

silence.

The sound effects and visual spectacle of the battle receded like the tide, leaving behind an eerie silence in the plaza.

Junko and Momoe froze on the spot, their mouths slightly open, their eyes wide open, their faces filled with bewilderment and shock.

"Who...who exactly is this guy?" Junko murmured, her voice trembling.

"He...he actually...won over Asuka? And he crushed her in one round?" Momoe's voice trembled, as if she had witnessed the fall of a legend.

You Chen deftly put away the Duel Disk and ejected the deck, his movements practiced and skillful.

He looked at Asuka, who was barely able to stand and whose face was still somewhat pale, and a very faint smile appeared on his lips.

"You lost." His voice was calm and even, simply stating a fact. "Remember, you owe me one request."

"A request?!" Junko jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, rushed to Asuka's side, and anxiously lowered her voice.

"You're so foolish, Asuka! How could you make such a bet with a stranger! What if, what if he asks you to be his girlfriend? With your looks, nine and a half out of ten guys would be interested!"

Asuka Tenjouin took a deep breath, and her disordered breathing calmed down slightly.

She lost this duel completely and wholeheartedly.

The skill, tactics, and depth of understanding of the deck that You Chen displayed made her take notice of him.

However, Junko's words were like a bucket of cold water, bringing her back to her senses from the sheer shock of defeat.

Previously, they were only focused on the duel itself and had not considered the potential trouble behind the bet.

Looking back now, it was indeed too rash and risky.

She raised her eyes, her pupils reflecting a complex mix of emotions: frustration, seriousness, and a hint of barely perceptible wariness.

"I lost," her voice was a little hoarse, but she tried to remain calm. "I admit defeat. However, regarding that request..."

"I see you're short on money right now, so how about I give you some..."

Before she could finish speaking, You Chen interrupted her.

"What are you thinking about?" You Chen raised an eyebrow, his tone carrying an indescribable, almost mocking undertone. "How could I possibly waste such a precious request on such a trivial matter?"

"As for money, it's not that bad yet, although we are indeed a bit strapped for cash."

He turned around, his back to the three girls, and casually waved.

"I haven't decided on my request yet. I'll tell you when we meet again."

"Here's your duel disk back."

After saying that, he returned the duel disk, turned around and left without lingering.

Asuka Tenjouin stood frozen in place.

She had anticipated all sorts of demands the other party might make—money, rare cards, or even some tricky requests—but she hadn't expected such an indifferent attitude, as if defeating her and winning a bet was just a trivial matter.

What did he mean by his last sentence?

So, will they meet again?

You Chen walked very slowly. Actually, he also wanted the money, but he had to refuse because of his pride.

Moreover, making excuses makes it easier to negotiate the price.

Little did they know that quite some time had passed, and there was still no sound.

You Chen coughed lightly and turned slightly away.

Good heavens, Asuka Tenjouin, Junko, and Momoe are all long gone.

"Damn it."

"Why are you walking so fast?"

"I almost forgot, this world doesn't have the same kind of politeness as ours, and people don't know how to refuse."

"What are we going to do tonight?"

"Damn system, can't you give me a choice of money?"

You Chen really wanted to slap himself. What were you pretending for?

The system's voice sounded.

It's the voice of artificial intelligence, devoid of emotion.

System: "So why didn't you choose the money option just now?"

You Chen: "Damn it, you chose money? Where am I supposed to get a deck?"

System: "If you don't choose money, you'll starve to death. What's the point of having a card deck then?"

You Chen: "I..."

That makes so much sense!

I'll put up with this damn system for now.

One day, I'll have a knife in my hand and chop down the dog system first.

"Live-streamed duels, daily pay!!"

"Who's coming?"

The sudden sound caught You Chen's attention, and he turned his head to look.

I discovered a boy was live-streaming on his phone.

A live-streamed duel?

interesting.
