Who Let Him Play Yu-Gi-Oh!

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

"Only this guy is absolutely impossible!"

Yubel’s tone was firm and decisive.

At the same time, her gaze at Yugen was filled with hostility, mingling suspicion with a hint of wariness.

It’s nothing but the lingering fear from before.

Yubel, who had roamed across multiple generations, had never seen such an eerie Duelist. She had once been confident that her strength was top-notch in this dimension, with few worthy opponents. But this confidence had all but vanished after witnessing Yugen’s duels multiple times.

This was a monster wearing human skin!

When Yubel was in her darkened state, she thought that once her strength returned, she would certainly take care of this troublemaker to vent her anger. But after observing Yugen’s duel with the Three Evil Gods, most of such thoughts had already dissipated.

Now she just wanted to stay as far away from this guy as possible, not wanting to provoke this thing at all.

Now Judai actually wants to give her to this guy, talking about... assisting him in research?

Research what? Her own body?

God knows what this devil would do to her when Judai wasn’t around!

"Yubel, you don’t know, Yugen’s research capabilities are really strong!" Judai said, "I’ve seen it with my own eyes, many card deck series that were not originally favored have been greatly enhanced after development at Yugen’s place.

This is an opportunity that many others could hardly have..."

"No!"

Yubel was resolute.

She crossed her arms and pouted, "Besides, I’m already strong enough, no need for any enhancement."

Yugen smiled and said, "Since she doesn’t want to, then forget it, Judai. This matter can’t be forced."

He sighed lightly, shaking his head with regret.

"What a pity, she was originally a very promising prospect. Yubel’s situation is special; she’s originally an Elf with enormous potential but was led astray by the Light of Destruction, stepping on the wrong path of evolution.

Now, though she’s out of control, her potential has inevitably been affected."

Yugen said to himself, as he somehow pulled out a card.

"It’s a pity. When Yubel only had one arm, I did some research and collected some data, gaining important insights for her next evolution direction.

If I could continue the development... never mind, I’d better seek other candidates."

Though Yubel was firm in her refusal, hearing him say this and seeing him take out a card—her curiosity was still unavoidable and irresistible, so she couldn’t help but lean in to check.

Not checking was fine, but upon checking, she was instantly shocked.

Is this really... herself!?

[Yubel’s Elf

Attack Power 0, Defense Power 0

Effect: When the opponent declares an attack, this card can be Special Summoned from the hand.

When this card is Special Summoned, search the Card Deck for a Magic Trap Card with "Yubel" in its name, add it to your hand or directly Set it on the field.

This card cannot be destroyed in battle, and the battle damage to the user’s side is also 0.

If this card is destroyed, Special Summon a "Yubel" from your hand, Card Deck, graveyard, or banished state.]

Yubel’s pupils contracted.

Is the Yubel’s Elf card truly the direction she should have evolved in?

Although faint, she could indeed feel a certain allure from this card, tinged with a trace of her essence.

However, in reality, this card couldn’t truly be called a "card," at least not one usable in a duel.

Because this card is merely a prototype, not truly completed.

Yugen was able to create this card because he knew that the "Yubel’s Elf" card truly exists and understood the specific direction. However, this card’s creation was only in its initial stages, it couldn’t yet be used in a duel.

When a new card is born, the text effect on the card is naturally manifested under the duel rules from the power the card inherently possesses, not whatever the designer whimsically writes. If it were so, anyone could easily become invincible just by putting in explosive numbers.

This card’s development hadn’t reached the stage where specific effects were manifested. The effects on this card were entirely transcribed by Yugen based on his memory, therefore it couldn’t be used in duel currently. Its existence first serves as a template for design, and secondly, like now, to be used as bait to lure Sister Yubel.

Sure enough, Yubel was staring intently at the card, looking tempted.

"Actually... there might be a way."

Yubel said softly.

"Hmm?" Yugen raised an eyebrow and looked at her.

Yubel crossed her arms, looking elsewhere, "Don’t... don’t get me wrong! All of this is for Judai... yes! For Judai’s sake, I’ll endure a bit... helping you a little wouldn’t be impossible."

Yugen laughed.

Clearly a mutually beneficial matter where everyone is happy, why make it seem like I am taking a huge advantage of you?

Nonetheless, Yugen didn’t mind, "Good. Then from now on, I look forward to your guidance."

After settling, Yugen glanced down from the rooftop, observing the island’s sprawling dense forest, and the farther tumultuous waves and sea.

Beyond this world, there were more worlds.

The Evil Gods were right. Yugen also held darkness within, a fear of the unknown.

People believed him to be invincible, singing the unbeatable legend of the King, assuming his existence represented the pinnacle of the Dueling Realm. But Yugen knew that wasn’t the case.

The depth of Duel Monsters far exceeded the understanding of everyone in this world. Beyond this dimension, there are more dimensions, more domains unknown to the people. Strong individuals from other dimensions might possess more advanced summoning methods and more terrifying card deck systems.

He had seen them and knew what terrifying power systems still existed out there.

If mere mortals without Destiny Power held powerful card decks it’s not that concerning, but what if a protagonist with powerful Destiny Power like the seafood-headed main character or an antagonist from an animation, armed with a top-tier modern Yu-Gi-Oh! card deck came, honestly, Yugen had no confidence he could handle it.

So, even though seen as an invincible King by outsiders, he actually never felt secure.

He didn’t have the confidence of having the most superior power, without fear of any challenge or person.

This was also why he placed great importance on the development of Yubel. Even in the entirety of Yu-Gi-Oh!’s history known to him, a complete Yubel card deck was top-tier, it would still hold notable power even in modern Yu-Gi-Oh! scenes.

Moreover, the Three Evil Gods mentioned the world beyond this dimension, including the "Supreme Sun" card, which originally should have been unique...

Yugen drew three Evil God Cards, pondering for a moment.

Though a bit dangerous, he felt he indeed needed to question these three in detail.
