The card player needs to win easily

And, a text message that looked... indescribable was sent to Liva's phone.

"I've done my best to mislead that guy, he'll be here soon, be careful."

"What is this?"

(There's not even any punctuation, it looks horrible... Wait, Bekas?!)

"We're out of time."

Fudo Yusei said to everyone very seriously.

"Paradox is planning to seize the connection between this world and the Duel Spirits."

"Ah... so you mean to destroy the Duel Monsters, right?"

Siren shrugged.

No matter what twists and turns happened, at least, judging from the results, nothing seems to have changed.

"So, will you please help me stop Paradox?"

Fudo Yusei stretched out his hand.

"That's what we're here for."

Yujo Judai and "Fudo Yusei" looked at each other and put their hands on each other.

"Yes, to save grandpa."

"...Since you all said so, I certainly have no choice but to accept it."

"Yami Yugi" and Muto Yugi also placed their palms on it.

"We're starting a group right now? Then we'll have to—"

A shrill sound rang out from everywhere and in every direction.

It was like the whole world was rubbing against something, making that sound.

“What the hell—”

The air seemed to be stagnant and became sticky.

The body seemed to be restrained by something and could not move.

"...!"

Struggling hard, Liva tried to break free from this state.

"boom!"

As if something broke, she took a step forward with a shattering sound.

"Ugh!"

Liva almost lost her balance, but she managed to keep her balance just before she fell to the ground.

"What happened!?"

The moment she looked up, Liva saw something incredible.

Everyone maintained their previous actions and stood still.

It was like the whole world had stopped.

She looked up, and even the clouds and birds in the sky didn't move—no, there was someone watching around.

It's "Antinomiya", Bruno.

"What's going on? Time has stopped?"

"It seems that Paradox is faster than we expected."

Bruno looked around at the still world.

"'Spacetime Annihilation'... He even decided to use this dangerous technology."

He gave Liva a meaningful look.

"He possesses the mass of an entire world... It seems only those who are still able to move have a chance of stopping him."

"Huh, it really doesn't work?"

A man with long yellow hair and purple highlights walked up from behind Liva.

"Using our time to annihilate the time here—theoretically, we can temporarily stop the progress of time in this world."

"However, with such a large 'mass', it's not surprising that you're unaffected... Even still air can move within it. It's truly incredible."

"However, the goal has been achieved - as long as no one else interferes, my plan will be half successful."

(Where does the Zentraedi technology come from…)

Sure enough, these people in the original work are just letting it go! ?

With this level of skill, victory is ultimately decided by a duel—this seems a bit too Yu-Gi-Oh!

"—Don't pretend, I know you can break free from stillness too."

Paradox looked coldly at the motionless gray-haired girl.

"boom!"

The same cracking sound was heard when Liva broke free herself.

Siren raised her hand, and bubbles appeared out of thin air, landing on the duel disk and turning into a deck of cards.

"And you, Antinomi—I remember you didn't have the authority to interfere with my actions."

"I am Bruno, Paradox."

"You are seizing resources from other worlds. Our actions do not include these."

Bruno calmly tried to reason with Paradox.

However, this seemed to be of no use - after all, everyone who came from the shattered future, including him, had an unshakable will.

"Is the existence of Duel Monsters a good thing?"

"Besides—our world has long been on the brink of destruction! All I have to do is search for the future, by any means necessary!"

"We have long been promised hope for the future—don't do such a thing, Paradox!"

"That's hope?! Humanity can get a first warning, but what about a second and a third? Humanity is inherently bad, so the only way is to eradicate the Duel Monsters at their very roots!"

Paradox's crazy and determined eyes did not change at all.

"Even this world is the same! 'Antinomí'—no, you are the traitor, 'Bruno', who possesses the memory data of Fudo Yusei's timeline!"

At this moment, communication cannot solve any problems.

Then... there is only one choice.

"It seems that there is no reconciliation between us."

Paradox snorted disdainfully.

"...Want to stop me? Then let's duel in the realm of sin."

"Let someone go."

The strength of the decks in this world, even in a two-on-one situation, will greatly weaken the advantages of your own deck.

Paradox would not take such a risky path - besides, he only wanted to control Liva.

"In the realm of the world of 'Sin', just this once, I won the duel—"

"I'll take you with me, the last line of defense to unlock your world's Duel Monsters."

Paradox pointed at Liva.

"I?"

Liva looked around and finally confirmed that Paradox was really referring to her.

"What did I do? (whispering)"

Bruno looked at Liva and Siren.

"… Paradox seems to have obtained your world's most powerful deck from Bekas."

"Honestly, in this day and age...it's hard for me to win."

He is very clear about his own position - in this parallel world, "technology" has almost no place.

There was no way he could beat the deck Paradox had in his hand right now... although he didn't know what it was yet.

"What about the original three-on-one situation? Why did it suddenly become a choice between the two of us?"

Looking at the "Duel Kings" who were supposed to come up to duel, Liva rubbed his temples.

It has a bit of a super★expansion★meaning - just like there is no super-fusion in the super-fusion movie, fighting against the paradox is not three against one, but one from your side.

"Also, the strongest deck I got from Bekas... couldn't it be that one?"

Liva turned her gaze to the Siren.

And Siren spread her hands.

"Don't look at me. Even if we're playing cards, I'm not the one playing. The organization has already decided that you're the one playing."

"It's me again? Why?"

Siren silently revealed the six "Gathering Friends" monsters in her card box.

She couldn't use "Proliferating G" right now—there was a high probability that she would be killed if she went up.

"...I'm playing the deck that didn't participate in the Second World Martial Arts Tournament? Is that true?"

Liva looked at the deck on Paradox's "D Wheel" in front of her, and then looked at her own deck.

"Where's the panel? Panel, please save me, panel?"

She tried to open the panel and looked at the information on the banned card list—

"The banned card list is now in effect"

Then, he looked embarrassed and heartbroken.

"I can't help you... Trust in God's will. Since you want to play this card, you definitely have a chance to win!"

"Can I still pray for him to get stuck with this deck?!"

Liva was a little crazy.

(How could I possibly win against a deck where half of the forty cards can be activated on the opponent's turn?)

A flash of light flashed.

(No, I was mistaken!)

Liva looked at the Siren who seemed to have no sense of tension at all and discovered the error in her thinking.

——In this world, the only person who possesses the "Siren Mermaid of the Pearly Tearful Lament Clan" is Siren.

In other words, the deck he was facing was most likely not the terrifying "Pearl Tears Elegy Clan" that had appeared in his own world.

Moreover, coupled with Bekas's text message and the silent panel...

"You always have a chance to win, right?"

Siren smiled and raised an index finger, placing it under her lips.

"...You, you've already thought of this."

"Well, what are you talking about? I don't understand at all."

"……bring it on."

Leaving the Siren pretending to be stupid behind, Liva took a deep breath and loaded the deck into the duel disk.

"Are you done discussing this? If you're done, then—let's begin this world's final duel."

From beneath Paradox's fully expanded "D-wheel," the realm of the "Sin" world covered the surrounding floors and completely enveloped Liva.

"Let this duel begin..."

““DUEL!!!””
