Chapter 31

As the duel ended, Isono, as the referee, had not had time to announce the outcome of the duel. The punishment of the dark game had arrived as scheduled. It would be great if justice could come as quickly as it did.

A sound like breaking glass suddenly came to mind. Malik, who had looked in pain just now, suddenly pulled out the [Millennium Scepter] that was stuck in his chest. Although the wound on his chest was bleeding, he didn't feel any pain at all. Keeping that in mind, he raised the [Millennium Scepter] above his head: "You are not the only one who has two souls at the same time, nameless Pharaoh!"

"I'm afraid you don't know, Pharaoh? There are two souls named 'Malik'!"

"As the price for losing the duel, let my personality accept the devouring of darkness on my behalf. Just think of it as the reward you paid for using your body for so long! Thank you very much. Also A cowardly me!”

The "Eye of Ugato" at the top of the [Millennium Scepter] in Malik's hand lit up. In the light, Yugi discovered that there was another Malik in it? Malik actually took advantage of the failure of this duel and took the initiative to separate Malik from his body, intending to completely take over the use of his body!

According to common sense, it is fair and just at best, but it is a dull dark game at worst. In fact, it cannot be "used as a substitute for oneself by others."

In the dark game, what is used as the basis for specifying rules is not the physical appearance, but the "true name" of the soul. Just like Oyo Yugi and Wang Yang, although they share the same body, they are two substantially different souls. If Wang Xiang loses in the dark game, he cannot use the table game to top the cylinder.

Of course, cards for dark games with special rules such as [Oliha Gang] and [Phantom Demon Gate] are not within the scope of conventional thinking. The former can top the cylinder and even be revoked as long as it is a soul, and the latter can even be revoked. Can forcibly kidnap other people for a "defensive descent".

However, Malik is truly an exception. Yugi and Wangyang are different souls manifested in the form of dual personalities, but whether it is dark Malik or the superficial Malik who was stripped from his body, they are both "Malik" himself.

Even strict laws will find loopholes to exploit from time to time. The rules of the dark game only identify "Malik". Whether the person swallowed by the darkness is the dark Malik who made the contract or the current situation. Malik, who knows nothing about it, won't care.

The corners of his mouth were pulled all the way to the base of his ears. The ferocious expression on Malik's face made his whole face visually feel like it was stretched due to excessive exertion. His muscles were tense and veins popped out on his face. It was worthy of the name. The first generation of Yan Yiwang.

"Uhhhhh!" Malik, who had no idea about the situation at the moment, and whose memory was still stuck before the top eight showdown in Duel City, screamed in pain in a depressed voice, and his entire soul was wrapped in darkness. It was like being flushed away by a toilet and swept into infinite darkness.

"Phew, it's so refreshing. This feeling of having your body completely under your control." Looking at the black hole emerging in mid-air, mercilessly swallowing up the soul of Malik, who was temporarily perched on the top of the [Millennium Scepter], Dark Malik laughed and even opened his arms.

Whether it was the expression on his face or the cheerful movements at the moment, Malik acted as if he had just won the duel. He looked arrogantly towards the game and showed a hideous smile: "Thank you so much, nameless Pharaoh. Sure enough, , either completely free, or not free at all. Now that I don’t have any burdens, I am completely free!”

As he spoke, the expression on his face was a little gloomy: "This time, I will leave [Osiris] to you temporarily, but I will take it back soon!"

Although he was quite resistant in his heart, the card gambling rules held by Kaiba were also written into the content of this dark game. Malik had to use the [Sky Dragon of Osiris] card that he did not include in the deck. He threw it at Yugi and caught it.

After leaving a harsh word, Malik left the sky duel arena without looking back. He did not stop outside the airship and went straight to the airship cabin.

"That guy ran away pretty fast." Hayato watched Malik disappear and snorted. When he turned his head, he noticed the distraught look on Isis's face.

"Malik..." Even though both Malik and Malik are not good people and have done many unforgivable things, they are his brothers after all. Seeing with her own eyes that Malik was plotted and abandoned by her other personality and fell into darkness, Isis felt quite depressed.

Hayato saw the reason why Isis was in a low mood at the moment, but instead of comforting Isis, he showed a smile: "Don't be so sad yet, Isis. Didn't you notice one thing from the beginning?"

"Um?"

Isis turned her head to look at Hayato with some confusion.

Hayato raised his hand and tapped his chest. It wasn't until Hayato pointed out that Isis realized that the [Millennium Wheel of Wisdom] that had been hanging on Hayato's chest in the past was actually missing? !

At this moment, with Isono's verdict, the game returned to the audience. As he walked toward Hayato, he reached into his arms and took out Hayato's missing [Millennium Wheel of Wisdom].

"[Millennium Wisdom Wheel]?"

Under Isis's gaze, Hayato took over the [Thousand-Year Wheel of Wisdom] from Yugi. I only heard Yugi say: "The choices Malik made were completely anticipated by you, Hayato. Whether it was launching a dark game that cost his life, or using his other self as a scapegoat after losing the duel."

"There is an idiom called 'Li Dai Tao Jian', and 'dove occupying the magpie's nest'. Dark Malik has already done it. It is not impossible for him to do such a thing as letting his other personality die." Hayato did not. It is said that in the original timeline, Malik even dragged out the two souls of Yu Yu and Yu Malik and put them on the bright side to play the dark game. "The thoughts of that six-year-old are so easy to guess."

"For the sake of freedom, he even mercilessly asked people to put Lishid to death. What kind of personality does Malik's personality count if he eliminates the possibility of regaining the right to use his body just like he seized power?"

As he spoke, Hayato put the [Millennium Wheel of Wisdom] back on his chest, and lightly tapped the "Eye of Ugato" in the center with his fingers, and a faint golden light flowed on it.

Yugi looked at the [Millennium Wheel of Wisdom] with a somewhat complicated expression. Isis has already taught him about the three artifacts of good and the three artifacts of evil in the [Millennium Artifact], but now it seems that although in Isis's mouth, the [Millennium Wisdom Wheel] is better than the [Millennium Eye] and the [Millennium Scepter] There is also the evil and darkest [Millennium Artifact], but as expected, the prop still depends on the user.

As for Isis's prophecy that "the users of the three evil artifacts will confront the nameless pharaoh's soul wandering around the world," he didn't take it to heart.

"Using the dark game to kill the game, Malik is on the first level. The game kills Malik. The game is on the second level. Malik uses the dark game to peel off another personality. He is on the third level. But unfortunately , I’m in the atmosphere.”

The rules of the dark game, to a certain extent, give the holder of the [Millennium Artifact] a certain priority. After all, the "dark game" that is still in use today is the stuff of the Egyptians. In the dark game just now, the [Millennium Brick] and the [Millennium Scepter] faced off, giving Yugi and Malik fair duel conditions, and Hayato handed Yugi the [Millennium Wisdom Wheel] when he entered the duel arena. He quietly did some insignificant tricks in the dark game.

If it is to prevent a certain person from being punished, or to affect the fairness of the duel, even if Hayato piles seven [Millennium Artifacts] together, it will hardly be of any great use, but just making a small change in the final punishment will still be Very relaxing. Malik's soul, which was supposed to be banished to the infinite darkness, is now stored in the [Millennium Wheel of Wisdom] on Hayato's chest.

Isis cast a concerned look at the [Millennium Wheel of Wisdom] on Hayato's chest. Just when she was about to continue saying something, a cold voice forced her way into the conversation of several people: "Enough for the boring and childish metaphysical topic. That’s it.”

The person who spoke was Kaiba, who had a calm look on his face as he walked up to Yugi and Hayato. Next to him were Isono, who came down from the referee's seat, and Keppei, who put away his laptop.

"First of all, congratulations to you, Yugi, for successfully obtaining a God Card." Kaiba relied on his exaggerated height that did not look like a high school student, and glanced at the person who was still tall despite being in a king-like state. Yugi, "But it's just congratulations, it's just reasonable. If you stop at the hands of that kind of bastard, you won't be qualified to be valued by me, Yugi."

"Kaiba, you are still as annoying as ever when you talk." Jonouchi walked over to Kaiba after Kaiba. He first choked at Kaiba, who was at odds with him, and then showed a bright smile to Yugi, "It's really awesome. Ah, Yugi, that Combo just now was really awesome."

"Hmph, it's indeed a three-legged cat. Doesn't it feel quite easy just to become the top four?"

Seeing Jonouchi's current relaxed state, Kaiba sneered coldly, and then said what he wanted to say: "Now that the top four have been decided, without further ado, I feel like it's time to start deciding the order of the next duel. .You shouldn’t be tired from the duel just now, right, Yugi?”

"But President, according to the original process arrangement, the duel to determine the order of the top four should be in four hours. Now the event has just begun to warm up-" Isono was about to remind Kaiba, but at this moment, someone on the side Keppei quickly kicked his calf, causing him to shut his mouth in time due to pain.

Seeing that although his face was calm and even a little indifferent, the corners of his mouth were subconsciously raised by seahorses. Keipei, who was as big as a kid, helplessly held his forehead and said to himself: "Isn't it obvious? I just finished reading In the duel of the game, my brother’s card addiction has come back again.”

"Wait 4 hours? Don't worry, my brother will fire you because you waste oxygen by breathing, Isono."
