Chapter 1322 The Woman Who Controls the Bonfire

"Hmm, I'm so hungry."

"I remember Maeda went to buy duel bread. Oh, brother, you left the duel field to chase me." After hearing Judai's words, Marufuji Sho said subconsciously, and then realized that the reason why Judai didn't eat the duel bread seemed to be because he ran away on his own. He apologized depressedly, "I'm sorry, brother."

"It's okay, Xiang. After Asuka and the others' duel, the quarterfinals to semifinals will be over. Although it's a pity that I didn't get to eat the golden egg bread, but to celebrate my successful promotion, can't we go eat fried shrimp soba together? It's my treat~"

"Brother, you really like fried shrimp. But this means that your attempt to set a higher record of eating golden egg bread in a row has failed again, and that's without Principal Hayato making trouble."

"It's a pity indeed. I wonder who will get to eat the golden egg bread today."

"This is what I am"

Opening her eyes in confusion, Amajyoin Fubuki was awakened by the conversation next to her. She looked around and found Judai and Marufuji Sho chatting beside her, "Judai?"

"You finally woke up, Fubuki." Hearing Fubuki wake up, Judai quickly turned around and asked with concern, "Are you okay?"

With Judai's help, Fubuki sat up from lying on the soft grass and rubbed her temples. "The lie is that I feel great, but the truth is that my head feels messy, just like my memory is blacked out after a hangover."

"I only remember that I was dueling with Liang, and then Liang summoned [Chimera Overload Dragon] to attack me during his turn, and then..." Having said this, Fubuki paused and covered her forehead with her hands in discomfort.

"It seems that this is the aftereffect of the mask that controlled you, Fubuki, and took advantage of the opportunity to get in." Judai patted Fubuki's shoulder, "And then, Fubuki, you used the [Life Principle] to revive the [Red-Eyes Dark Dragon] and strengthen its power, but at the same time you were controlled by the thing called 'Darkness'."

Marufuji Sho continued, "As for the duel, although the attack power of the resurrected Red-Eyes Dark Dragon was equal to that of Chimera Overload Dragon, my brother used that Restriction Release. However, before you, Tenjoin-senpai, were defeated, Principal Hayato arrived here and stopped the duel, and also scared away the thing called 'Darkness'."

As he spoke, Maruto Sho couldn't help but glance at Fubuki's wrist. Even though he had already checked it while Fubuki was unconscious, he was still surprised by the special power that Principal Hayato had shown before: "The power of the spirit master, can it even do something like this?"

"It's not the power of the elves that's strong, but Mr. Hayato. At least, neither I nor Manjome can do such a thing." Judai shook his head and corrected Marufuji Sho's cognition, "The most important thing about the card elves is not their power, but the hearts that can resonate with us duelists. Although they are not without power, what is more important is the connected hearts."

"Having said that, for the vast majority of people in the world, let alone resonating with the spirits of card elves, they can't even see the existence of elves with their own eyes." If he hadn't witnessed the existence of elves more than once, Maruto Sho would have found it hard to believe that there were such magical things as card elves in the world.

"Although I have attended the principal's spirit coexistence class more than once, I also don't have that kind of potential. Asuka seems to be the same, even Ryo is the same. The ability to see spirits is the first step to resonate with the spirits on the cards, but the threshold is so high that only one in a billion people in the world can pass it."

After recovering a little, Fubuki lowered her hand from covering her forehead and smiled helplessly. "So far, including you, Judai, I have only seen five people with such abilities. It seems that my connections are really strong."

In addition to Judai and Manjome, the two juniors who entered this year, and Kobayashi Hayato, the fourth "Elf User" that Fubuki has met is his idol, Jonouchi Katsuya. He was hospitalized not long ago and finally saw him in person instead of through a screen.

Although it was somewhat embarrassing to faint at that time, it would be similar to hear that I was fine and then see my idol come to visit me. It was also at that time that Fubuki vaguely felt the special power that Jonouchi carried. It was no surprise that it was also the power of the card spirit, and the heaviness was definitely not ordinary.

-Yes, although it sounds a bit contradictory, Fubuki, who could not see or feel the existence of elves in the past, can feel the special power of the card elves on the "elf users" including Judai, Manjome, Jonouchi and Hayato. What made him undergo such a change was not anything else, but the long-term immersion in the power of Darkness over the past year.

"It's a little funny to say that after coming into contact with such a dark power, I was able to successfully come into contact with some of the world that you were able to feel in the past, Fujiwara no Fubuki thought to herself as she glanced at the sky.

When Fubuki mentioned Marufuji Ryo, Marufuji Sho couldn't help but clench his fist, which made Fubuki, who was lost in thought, notice the blue dormitory uniform in his hand. Fubuki had heard from Ryo in the past that he was actually a brother like her, and had a brother of the same age as her sister. In fact, Fubuki had long known Marufuji Sho's personality, and she understood the atmosphere very well and didn't disturb him, but asked Judai: "So what about Ryo, where did he go?"

"As for Caesar, Hayato-sensei said something incomprehensible like 'body pineapple pineapple da' and told him to go back to the duel arena to find Ayukawa-sensei."

After Judai finished speaking, Marufuji Sho said with resentment towards Caesar, "Is that person really the Marufuji Ryo of the past? He himself said that he is no longer Marufuji Ryo but only Caesar. Really, to what extent has he been deceived by power."

"You are wrong, Liang's brother."

Marufuji Sho originally thought that Tenjouin Fubuki, who was taken advantage of and fell into a coma because of the duel with Caesar, would be full of resentment and dissatisfaction towards Caesar just like him. After all, Fubuki, who had dueled with Caesar at close range, should be able to clearly feel his will that was so dark that it seemed as if it was controlled by darkness. However, he did not expect that Fubuki refuted his opinion even faster than Judai.

After recovering for a while, Fubuki stood up from the ground, letting Judai and Sho no longer have to squat. While brushing off the grass and dust on her clothes, Fubuki said, "On the contrary, although Ryo has undergone a great transformation in his will due to his increased awareness, 'Caesar' is still Marufuji Ryo, there is no doubt about that."

"As for being confused by power, it should be me who said that. I couldn't resist the temptation of darkness and subconsciously sank into it again. It was really embarrassing. If the principal hadn't interrupted the duel and expelled 'Darkness', and if Ryo's will hadn't guided me, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to wake up so quickly."

Marufuji Sho was a little surprised: "Brother Caesar's will is guiding you, Senior Tenjouin?"

"Well, I was wondering why even if I kept going deeper into the darkness, I couldn't find the light that illuminated his soul that was tainted by darkness. It turned out that from the very beginning, he was just standing on the edge of darkness and never let those things taint the light in his heart."

After a pause, Fubuki scratched her head and laughed awkwardly, "But why he wanted to wrap himself in darkness, I still can't understand, ahahaha."

"I think it's for victory. Caesar himself said that this is his struggle for victory." Judai thought for a moment and said, "There is no goal, just pursuing victory for the sake of winning the duel itself. I think that's probably what Caesar is thinking now. Today's Caesar has become stronger than before."

Thinking that a stronger Caesar might be able to duel with him more happily, Judai's mouth curled up subconsciously, and he didn't even realize that he was actually smiling. "Brother, do you think so? Do you think the same as Tenjouin-senpai?"

Hearing Marufuji Sho's words, Judai nodded without hesitation and said, "Yes, at least that's what I think. Besides, although Fubuki fell into a coma due to the duel with Caesar, the root cause is still that 'Darkness'. Caesar didn't do anything to hurt others. He just fought with all his strength in his own way in the duel."

"Even you, big brother, said so." Marufuji Sho had a conflicted expression on his face. He wanted to believe Judai's judgment, but when he felt the weight of the uniform abandoned by Marufuji Ryo in his hand, he couldn't help but recall the arrogant smile he saw on the beach.

"I don't trust you, big brother. I want to witness Caesar's duel again." Marufuji Sho didn't say this. In the end, his trust in Judai prevailed. He looked at Judai and said, "If it's you, big brother, I believe in your judgment."

"The difference in treatment is really obvious. Marufuji-chan, you really admire Judai." Fubuki said with a smile, but subconsciously recalled the duel with Judai when her body was occupied by Darkness in the past.

Darkness said that Judai, who used the hero-themed [E·hero] deck and acted as a "hero", "lost his qualifications when he wanted to be a hero" and was not a true hero or even a good person as he appeared to be.

Fubuki originally scoffed at Darkness's judgment in her memory, thinking that it was just trash talk from Darkness in order to influence Judai's performance in the duel. Teacher Hayato had taught them about "how to deal with the opponent's trash talk" in class.

But when she saw Judai's unconscious smile just now, Fubuki suddenly felt that maybe the "trash talk" was mixed with water, but it was not completely without basis? No, what was she thinking about? She was actually thinking about what Darkness said? It seemed that her condition was really not good and she was affected by what happened just now. Otherwise, why would she believe Darkness and doubt Judai?

Fubuki shook her head helplessly.

At the same time, a hand quietly rested on his shoulder, and a gentle female voice sounded: "It's normal to treat people differently, isn't it? Because, the other person is you, Fubuki-san."

As the voice rang out, Judai and Sho saw that Fubuki's body visibly stiffened, and the helpless smile on her face froze. Only her eyes could move. She moved very cautiously towards the owner of the hand on his shoulder, the Obelisk-Blue girls' dormitory supervisor, health teacher, physical education teacher, and school doctor, Ms. Ayukawa Emi, who was noticed by Judai and the others only after she suddenly spoke.

"Emi-chan? When did you get here? It's a nice day today too."

Looking at the large dark cloud floating in the sky and the smirking Fubuki, Teacher Ayukawa also showed a gentle smile: "I should have reminded you, Fubuki, to remember to wear your school uniform, but you changed into this beach flower shirt right after you left. Did you pay attention to the temperature today?"

"No, because my heart has become 114514℃ because of you, Emi-chan."

Fubuki tried to evade the topic by using her rich experience in chatting people up.

"Click--" As the arm suddenly tightened, Fubuki's bones made a rather subtle sound.

"Today's average temperature is only 10℃. It's amazing that you can still say such things while wearing such clothes." Teacher Ayukawa demonstrated her expression change. She was smiling just now, but now she has a serious expression like a devil. "I also heard from Marufuji Ryo that you fainted just now? You want grace over temperature, right? If you don't have a fever wearing such thin clothes, who will?"

“No, no, Emi-chan, I didn’t send—”

"Obey, let me be healthy!"

"Click——"

The Fubuki fell into silence.

Watching Fubuki being dragged away by teacher Ayukawa Emi, with foam coming out of the corners of her mouth, Marufuji Sho complained: "I don't know whether the influence of that 'Darkness' is greater, or whether Ayukawa teacher's grappling technique is more effective in making Tenjouin-senpai fall asleep."

"Teacher Ayukawa does have great qualities in that he has a strong sense of responsibility for the health of our students, but it's hard not to complain about his approach of using a grenade to stun a patient before treating him," Judai also sighed.

Teacher Ayukawa Emi, who had not walked far, did not know whether she heard what the two said, but she had already stopped and suddenly called out, "Yujou, Marufuji Sho-san!"

  "Hi?!" X2

Being suddenly called, Judai and Sho stood at attention instantly.

Turning back with a gentle smile, Teacher Ayukawa said softly: "Marufuji Sho, remember to change your clothes when you go back. If you don't change your clothes in time after they get wet, you will catch a cold. And Yucheng, do your best in the afternoon game."

Although the smile was gentle, neither Judai nor Sho really believed that Ayukawa-sensei was as gentle as he looked. They nodded and bowed hurriedly, and only breathed a sigh of relief when the other party left their sight.

"By the way, why is it that only when it comes to Fubuki, does Ayukawa-sensei use such rough methods without hesitation?" Judai asked Marufuji Sho with confusion.

"I just happen to know this question. I heard from Maeda that Ayukawa-sensei was also a member of Tenjouin senior's fan club. Until he participated in the college exchange competition two years ago and was witnessed by Ayukawa-sensei that he was hooking up with three girls from other schools at the same time, and then he turned from a fan to a hater."

"Just because of that? That's hard to understand. Fortunately, I don't have fans like that." Subconsciously, Judai forgot about Saotome Rei.

Today's hot knowledge: The "Bonfire" in the AC series card box, which is responsible for the mission of OCGing anime cards, is the card of Mr. Ayukawa in GX.
