I Play Cards in the Kingdom of Duelists with Heroic Spirits

"Don't thank me, these stars are what Hoshino deserves." Facing everyone's grateful expressions, Peacock Dance felt a little embarrassed.

However, contrary to everyone's joy, it was Hoshino who was still standing aside and staring blankly at the stars in his hands.

"Sister Hoshino..." The distressed Peacock Dance looked at the increasingly dull Hoshino, and simply hugged her in his arms.

"Huh?! Sister Wu~" Hoshino, who had no time to react, was hugged into his arms instantly, and the soft touch on her face made her lose her mind again.

Gently stroking Hoshino's head in his arms, Peacock Dance whispered in his ear: "Qianxue, sometimes the growth brought about by one defeat is far higher than ten consecutive victories. As a duelist, facing Sudden failure, you can be confused, you can be unwilling, but you must not escape."

"Qianxue..." After coming to this world, it was the first time someone called Hoshino by this name. It felt like, "It's like family."

After silently enjoying the tenderness on Peacock Dance's chest, Hoshino raised his head, "Don't worry too much about me, Miss Wu, it's just that I lost a duel, and it's not a big deal."

After speaking, Hoshino quickly inlaid the 5 stars in his hand on the Duelist's gloves again, and half of the empty star slots were filled again.

"It's getting late, let's go to Bekas Castle as soon as possible." After filling the stars, Hoshino waved to his partners, "There are still such long steps to go, this is much more difficult than a duel If you don't hurry up, it will be dark."

"Oh~ what Hoshino said makes sense, let's go!" Looking at Hoshino who seems to have regained his spirit, Jouchi's originally depressed mood instantly calmed down, and Hoshino jumped up the stairs together.

"Fortunately, it's within the city, the movement is really fast, one step and three steps~"

"Of course, I'll take four steps in one step!" The barbarian No. 1 stretched out his long legs, and stepped across 4 steps in an incredible arc.

"Hahaha, it's like a split horse. Although it's powerful, it looks so disgusting!"

However, looking at Hoshino and Jouchi who were bouncing and laughing on the steps, Yuyu's worried expression did not diminish at all, "Hoshino, she is trying to be brave."

"Qianxue probably just doesn't want us to worry too much." Shaking her head, Peacock Dance sighed at Hoshino's excessive kindness, "Obviously you can rely on me a little more."

"Hoshino must have her own persistence." Kyoko put her hands on her chest, and looked at Hoshino who forced her smile forward with trusting eyes.

"Let's go too, to Bekas Castle!"

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

"This ladder is still as difficult to deal with as ever~" Hoshino complained, wiping the sweat from his brow and panting heavily.

Hoshino, who was still chatting and laughing with Jouchi, can't keep up with his companions at all, "Don't these people feel tired?"

"Miss Hoshino, are you okay?" A steady voice, with a hint of concern, rang in Hoshino's ear.

"Mr. Holmes?" Hoshino looked suspiciously at Holmes who ran out for some reason, and replied in a low voice, "It's okay. Although I will be very tired, I have climbed once before. And I feel that my physical strength has improved in the past two days." A lot."

Two days of outdoor life, although it will not completely exercise an athlete.But it also allowed the body of Hoshino, an otaku girl who didn't usually exercise much, to regain the state of an ordinary human a little bit.

"That's not what I asked, Hoshino." Holmes raised his eyebrows, his eyes became more serious, "You should also know what I'm asking, right?"

"Mr. Holmes is talking around the bush, I don't quite understand it?" Hoshino turned his eyes aside, and muttered to Holmes, "I'm fine everywhere, what do you think is wrong with me?"

"It's too much, your calm tone, your trembling hands, your forced smile..." Taking a deep breath of the pipe in his hand, Holmes sighed, "Don't hide it from me, the detective. You can't even hide it from your friends."

"Holmes, you have been materialized for so long, won't you be taught by Da Vinci?" Hoshino's easy-going attitude suddenly disappeared as if being poked at a pain point in his heart, "If there is nothing wrong, can you please be quiet for a while?" Is it true, I am already very tired from the continuous duels."

"Hmm, is that so?" Holmes was slightly taken aback by Hoshino's sudden attack, and then patted Hoshino's shoulder with his translucent body.

"Hoshino, if the usual duel is a battle between you and Chaldea, then what you are facing now is a battle that belongs only to you." Holmes left the last sentence, and his translucent body disappeared into the into the wind.

.....

"Is it finally here?" Hoshino climbed to the front of the gate with difficulty, propping his hands on his knees, already taking in more air and leaving less air.

"You guys? Have you collected all 10 duelist stars?!" The man in black standing guard at the gate of the castle looked surprised at the large group of people who appeared suddenly.

"Yeah, the four of us are the final qualifiers of the duelist kingdom competition!" The proud peacock dance dragged the panting Hoshino to the man in black, showing off the duelist's gloves full of chips and stars .

"Ah! You're not!" Jouchi, who was also showing his chips and stars, suddenly yelled, "The man in black who arranged for the fake Kaiba to fight Hoshino, and then kidnapped Guihei!"

After being reminded by the city, everyone suddenly became alert and looked at the man in black sunglasses who was guarding the door in front of him.Although all kinds of people in black looked similar at first glance, the strange and distinctive hairstyle in front of them made everyone recall it at a glance.

"You bastard, where did you take Keipei!" An angry Jouchi stepped forward and lifted the collar of the man in black.

"Hmph, I didn't expect you to be able to collect all 10 stars." Laughing indifferently, the man in black pushed away and grabbed his inner city, "What Guiping said, I just do what Master Bekas wants. That’s all, if you have any questions, please ask Master Bekas in person.”

After finishing speaking, the man in black moved a few positions to the right, gave way to the iron gate behind him, and said with a displeased face, "Go in, just put 10 stars symbolizing duelists on the gate to activate The door switch."

"Okay everyone, although I don't know what happened, but he's just a lackey, don't get too entangled with this kind of person now." Peacock Dance, who didn't hold back her poisonous tongue, walked forward to the organ that placed the stars at the door. On, "Let me see, just put it like this, and then turn the switch~"

The sound of the huge iron gate moving, and the road opened by 10 stars symbolizing duelists lead directly to the magnificent interior of the castle.

"Anyway, we are all qualified to enter the castle, so we don't need to open the door one by one." He made a face at the man in black standing beside him, and entered the castle with steps that no relatives would recognize.

"Damn it..." The man in black, who had been humiliated by two people in succession and could not find a chance to retaliate, looked even more ugly.

"Then...we also..." The timid Kyoko and the others, because they were not qualified to enter, could only restrain their voices, infinitely reduce their sense of existence, and tried to sneak into the castle.

"Stop, who are you?" However, the man in black is not blind, how could the man in black let them go just like that when he was angry, "You are not contestants at all, why are you here!"

"Hey, we're here to cheer them up." Kyoko scratched her face in embarrassment, trying to get away with being cute.

"Little girl, stop joking." The man in black, who was already annoyed enough, seemed to have finally found a place to vent, and reached out to grab Kyoko's shoulder.

However, at the moment when the man in black was about to succeed, Honda firmly controlled the salty pig's trotters he stretched towards Xingzi, "Don't be too arrogant, we haven't settled the score with you last time!"

"You are, the one from yesterday afternoon!" Recognizing Honda who had fought with him yesterday at a glance, the man in black pulled out his arm held by Honda angrily.

"Yesterday, it was just that I was in a bad state. Do you think I will really lose to you?" Honda moved his joints arrogantly, and Honda approached the man in black step by step.

"Interesting, kid! Today I'll let you see what happens to professionals who piss off people." Of course, the black body man didn't think that he would lose to this kind of high school student in a fight, so he rushed forward with a roar.

"Joinouchi, beat him!" But what the man in black didn't expect was that the first thing Honda did was not to fight back, but to hide back and call to Shiuchi who had already set up his posture.

The sudden sneak attack from behind the city caught the man in black off guard and lost his rhythm.

After that, there was a lot of punches and kicks. Under the reasonable attack of the barbarian brothers No. 1 and No. 2, the man in black was beaten until he was powerless to fight back.

"Why, yesterday it was only evenly matched, but today it will become like this?" The man in black who was being beaten unilaterally asked with difficulty, "Why are high school students so strong?"

"Hmph, now we are no longer the same as yesterday!" Even when answering the man in black's question, Honda did not slow down the pace of attack at all.

"After all, we have already seen the astonishing fighting skills of Sister Martha!" The two said in unison, raising their fists the size of sandbags, "Come on, Jonai & Honda, burning brothers Soul fusion skills!"

"Double—heavy—(double)! Iron Fist Saint Tail!"

The fists that gathered the strength of the two men bombarded the strong body of the man in black at the same time, successfully knocked the opponent into the air, hit the city wall heavily, and fell unconscious.

"Big Sister, you already have an apprentice in this world..." Looking at the scene in front of him helplessly, Hoshino complained twitchingly.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

"In the city, are you really okay with this?" Kyoko asked uneasily looking at the unconscious doorman in black.Although the attitude of the man in black is not very good, he can still be regarded as a staff member here.

"It's okay, I can't even beat high school students, it can only show that the security level here is not enough, no wonder we." Patting the dust on his hands, Cheng Nei replied arrogantly.

Without the blocking of the security guard at the gate, a group of people can naturally easily enter Bekas Castle.

Standing at the gate of the castle, Hoshino looked back at the island of the Kingdom of Duelists in the setting sun, "It's only been two days, but I feel like I've experienced so many things. The Kingdom of Duelists with dreams on its back is really a magical place. "

"Speaking of which, I didn't see the fish tail. Where did I lose my qualification?" Although Hoshino thought this way, there was not much fluctuation in his heart. In this cruel survival battle, as long as he made a slight mistake, he would lose his qualification. Losing all games, losing qualifications is a very normal thing.

"And where will I go in the end..." Hoshino asked himself like this, followed the footsteps of his companions and entered the castle.

"It's really gorgeous!" Sighing at the magnificent European-style decoration in the castle, Peacock Dance's eyes almost straightened, "This is the life of the rich, and one day I will live in such a house with my own efforts .”

"But although we entered the castle smoothly, this castle is really big. Where do we go to find Bekas?" The introduction of the rules before the start of the competition only explained that the contestants will enter the castle after collecting 10 stars. Not sure about the itinerary.

While everyone was walking around the castle like headless chickens, the sound of steady footsteps approached slowly.

"Hello, Muto Yuki, Hoshino Chiyuki, Jouchi Katsuya, the four passers of Peacock Dance, and their friends." The old deacon, who usually followed Bekas, appeared in front of everyone and bowed deeply. He bowed, "Following Master Bekas's instructions, I have arranged rest rooms for all the contestants. You can plan your time as you like until dinner."

"Hey, what about Bekas, why doesn't he show up? Is this how he treats guests?" Thinking that Bekas was nearby but didn't show up, Cheng Nei felt hairy.

"Master Bekas is very busy with official duties, and today he has to spare time to duel with Seto Kaiba, so he can't get away now." He was not angry because of the impolite speech in the castle, and the very professional old deacon still replied respectfully problem.

"Seto Kaiba..." Upon hearing this name, Hoshino's pupils contracted slightly, and then he regained his composure.

"The duel with Seto Kaiba?!" Hearing the old deacon's answer, Yugi was suddenly taken aback, "Does that mean the duel between Bekas and Kaiba hasn't started yet?"

"Yes." The old deacon nodded, raised his right hand and looked at the watch on his wrist, "The duel is expected to be before dinner. If you are interested, you can go to the duel hall to watch."

"Will Bekas fight against Seahorse?" Yuyu, who bowed his head in thought, muttered silently, "It was thought that with Seahorse's strength, he might not be able to defeat Bekas. But the strength that Seahorse showed today is completely different from usual strength. "

Seeing Haima who has gained a new strength, even the game has a glimmer of hope for him to defeat Bekas, "You must work hard, Haima!"

"As I said above, now I will lead the way to the rooms that have been arranged for the contestants." After answering everyone's questions, the old deacon gestured to everyone, then walked steadily towards the other side of the corridor go.

The whole journey was silent, probably because of the matter of Haima, and everyone with their own thoughts followed behind the old deacon silently.

"This is the room arranged for the four contestants. As for the friends of the contestants, I can only apologize for squeezing you a little bit with the contestants." After arranging the room for everyone, the old deacon bowed deeply again Bow, "Then I will take my leave here, and I hope everyone can get a full rest."

"Bekas, you actually prepared such a spacious and luxurious room for us." Looking up at the gorgeous room decoration, Jouchi couldn't help admiring, "You really can do whatever you want with money."

"Since we need to squeeze together, I'll share a room with you in the city." Unceremoniously, Honda lay directly on the soft big bed in the room, and then sighed, "Ah~ this bed is really comfortable !"

"You bastard, who let you sleep in my uncle's bed? It would be great for a stowaway like you to have a floor to sleep on!" Seeing that his bed was taken by the city, he complained angrily.

Ignoring the pair of playful creatures, everyone silently exited the room in the city.

"Kiryo, you can only sleep with me, no problem." Because there are only games left in the boy's room, Kairyo has no other choice.

"No problem, game." Tapiryo nodded.

"Then I naturally want to sleep with Hoshino!" Kyoko embraced Hoshino, and patted the head of Hoshino who had been silent all this time.

"Kyoko..." Hoshino squeezed out a smile, feeling the warmth of Kyoko who was hugging him. He should have been very happy, but for some reason he couldn't be happy at all.

"Xingzi!" Peacock Dance suddenly called out, pulling away Kyoko who was hugging Hoshino, "You can sleep with me."

"Why..." Kyoko, who had some doubts at first, looked at Peacock Dance's serious eyes, and seemed to understand something, so she nodded reluctantly, "Okay~"

"No problem, Hoshino, lend Kyoko to my sister for one night." Peacock Dance said teasingly as he stroked Hoshino's face with his fingertips.

"Yes, Miss Wu. It's just that I'm a little tired. I'll go back and rest for a while." Hoshino answered Peacock Dance flatly, and turned to go to his room.

The same gorgeous layout as the rooms in the city, a bathtub with a massage device, a refrigerator full of various drinks and other equipment are all available, but now Hoshino is not in the mood to enjoy these at all.

Lying directly on the big bed in the room, Hoshino's petite body almost fell into it because of the too soft mattress.Hoshino, who was lying flat, stared blankly at the luxurious European-style chandelier on the roof. The too dazzling light stimulated the nerves in her eyes, and tears flowed down unconsciously.

"How can people sleep with such a dazzling light." Hoshino complained as he wiped away the tears from the corner of his eyes.

"Why, I can't stop my tears." However, more and more tears flowed down Hoshino's innocent face, "Who can help me turn off this broken lamp..."

"Stop shaking, these disobedient hands!" Feeling his trembling hands, Hoshino's tone became more and more irritable, "I touched tears all over my face, it's very uncomfortable!"

"I didn't cry, it was just because the lights were too dazzling." The voice that was originally talking to himself has turned into a slightly sobbing cry, "It's just that I lost a duel, why cry Yes! It’s just a game, I often lose when I play LOL!”
