"It's unbelievable. Even though he gave up 2000 health points at the beginning, the final result was that Izayoi Akira won the duel with an absolute advantage by a large score!"

After a slight pause of a few seconds, Hiroshi Tsuda, who received the special information from the headset, once again showed a very surprised expression.

"According to the latest information we just received, the deck used by contestant Izayoi Aki is the champion deck that was once used by the first KC Cup champion, the legendary duelist Ms. Izayoi Kaoru!"

"Ms. Izayoi Kaoru is not only the wife of the first undefeated Duel King, but also the only female Duelist in the history of Duel Monsters to be awarded the title of King!"

"As expected, just as predicted at the beginning of this tournament, if there is anyone who can dethrone the Absolute King Jack, that person will undoubtedly be the descendant of the first Duel King, the Rose Valkyrie - Aki Izayoi!"

Standing in front of the window of the VIP player lounge, Jack crossed his arms and grinned disdainfully, "Huh, the Fragrant Garden deck? It's a bit tricky indeed, but if I say that I will be pulled off the throne by an unreliable and stupid woman, that's too much of a joke!"

Recalling what happened when he met Yusei before, Jack had already labeled Izayoi Aki as unreliable in his heart. Of course, as a deck used by the first KC Cup champion Izayoi Kaoru, Jack was not so arrogant as to completely ignore the strength of the "Fragrant Garden" deck itself.

Therefore, after saying these words, Jack walked to his personal room with a sincere heart and began to rebuild the deck he was going to use...

"Now let's start the draw for the third game!"

He raised his hand and pointed to the player lottery system that started working again. At the same time when the avatars of the two players were selected by the computer, Tsuda Hiroshi's report came.

"The third match is a standing ring match. The contestants are "Duel Angel" Long Ke-chan and "Templar" Gilder Langsper from Western Europe!"

"Let's welcome the two contestants with warm applause!"

"Yoshi! It's finally my turn~ ahem~ it's my turn to appear on stage!" Realizing that she was playing the role of Long Ke, the originally extremely excited Long Ya instantly changed into a very soft and cute voice again.

"Come on! Long Ya!" Li Youfeng smiled and encouraged Long Ya as he squatted in front of her and straightened her wrinkled clothes. "As long as you give it your all, it doesn't matter if you lose. Just treat it as a training. You still have a lot of room for growth, so enjoy the fun of dueling!"

"Yes, don't worry, Uncle You Feng, I will not leave any regrets in this duel!"

With Li Youfeng's encouragement, Long Ya, who had a childish nature, immediately showed a happy smile. After giving Li Youfeng a thumbs up, he walked out of the contestant channel with his head held high.

"Is Long Ya really okay?" As he watched Long Ya walk towards the duel arena, Shizaiya Qiu said worriedly.

"Well, it's hard to say. I think Long Ya's dueling talent is okay. Although I have taught him for two days, I couldn't teach him much because of the tight schedule. But in my opinion, Long Ya has a good chance of winning. Against such an opponent, he can probably win."

He knew very well that the "Knight Templar" was not an ordinary duelist. In addition, due to his age, Li Youfeng could not train Long Ya like he did with Youxing and Shizayoi Qiu, so he made a very objective evaluation.

"Huh?! He can probably win?" With his eyes wide open, Shizai Qiu looked at Li Youfeng in surprise, "Grandpa, you are so unsure about Long Ya, yet you still agreed to let him participate?"

"Haha, who says you can't play if you're not sure? Who in the game of Duel Monsters dares to say they've never lost?"

Smiling and shaking his head, Li Youfeng spoke of his past without hiding anything, "Although I am known as the undefeated duel king by the outside world, in fact, I was once defeated by Jonouchi! In addition, Yugi and I are equally good at dueling, and we often win and lose when we spar on weekdays."

"To be honest, Yugi is much scarier than Atum. What's even more annoying is that although he appears to be smiling, he's actually a bit petty. Damn! He still won't let me go even after I announced my retirement. He keeps coming to me and asking for a duel, and I'm too embarrassed to refuse him!"

"The Uncrowned King Muto Yugi?" Hearing Li Youfeng's story about the past, You Xing showed a very interested expression, "I really can't imagine what kind of duelist Mr. Yugi is who can be as strong as Mr. Youfeng."

"No need to imagine, he is an old bastard!"

Li Youfeng spread his hands helplessly, then smiled and looked at Shijiu Yeqiu's side, "Welcome back, Ma Yulan, you have been wronged over the years."

"Master~!" When the Fragrance Mage Marjoram saw Li Youfeng again, her voice trembled slightly, with a hint of sob. At the same time, she lowered her head slightly, with tears welling up in her eyes, as if they would burst out at any time.

"No, it's my fault that I failed to protect the mistress. I don't deserve this accusation..." Marjoram's tone was full of self-blame and guilt, and her beautiful and sad face made people feel pity.

Li Youfeng looked at Marjoram in front of him, a trace of pity flashed in his eyes, but he still shook his head firmly and comforted her: "I know you have tried your best. This is not your fault, so don't be too hard on yourself."

After saying that, Li Youfeng turned his head and his eyes fell on Shizaiyaqiu who was standing beside him. His eyes became serious and he said to Shizaiyaqiu solemnly: "Aki, from now on, she will be handed over to you to take care of. As a contractor, you must treat her well. If I find out that you have done anything to let her down, I will take her back without mercy. Do you understand?"

"Don't worry, Grandpa. That day will never come. Don't you think so, Sister Marjoram?" Sticking out her tongue playfully at Li Youfeng, Shishiya Qiu gently pulled Marjoram's hand and held it tenderly. Her face instantly blossomed with a smile as brilliant as a spring flower.

Yuxing: “???”

He looked at Li Youfeng with a puzzled look on his face. Since he couldn't see those duel elves, Youxing had no idea who Li Youfeng and Shizayoi Qiu were talking to.

Wei'er: "Marjoram! Don't cry! I'll lend you my handkerchief!"

Atla: "Welcome back, buddy. Don't worry, I'll take care of you from now on. I guarantee no one will dare to bully you!"

Connector: "Tsk! You are the black-hearted bug who likes to bully others the most!"

The eldest lady: "Well, your protection is worthy of praise. You are worthy of the name of a duel elf. I recognize you!"

Labilis: "Hey~ I'm really not used to dealing with this kind of atmosphere, so I don't know what to say, but it's good that you can come back!"

Abyssal Eyes White Dragon: "Woooooo! So touching, this is love!"

Washerwoman: "Love? Could it be that Marjoram and the mistress are actually lesbians? Oh my God, I seem to have discovered the truth. Could it be that the two of you have already..."

Bang!

(Washerwoman: "Ouch! What are you doing?")

Black Magic Girl: "Don't make dirty jokes at a time like this, you perverted bitch!!!"

"These are all fairies?! And they are Uncle You Feng's fairies?"

It was hard to imagine that he had originally just planned to come to the player lounge to cheer for Long Ya, but when Long Ke entered the room, he suddenly saw this extremely shocking scene in front of him.

Finally he understood why he felt comfortable staying by Li Youfeng's side. Long Ke, who accidentally knew the truth, looked at Li Youfeng with increasingly complicated eyes.

[I was wondering why my body has become stronger and stronger during this period of time. It turns out that there are so many fairies around Uncle You Feng! Being loved by so many fairies, Uncle You Feng, could it be that you are really the first generation Duel King who has been missing for nearly sixty years? ]

"The third duel of the Fortune Cup Duel Tournament begins!"

"Huh, how ironic! I never thought that as a Knight Templar, I would have to duel with a little girl!" Even when playing cards, he was still wearing heavy armor. It must be said that in this age when death row prisoners can serve as duel consultants, playing cards in the duel arena with a medieval sword is obviously not a very unusual thing.

"Oh my! Is this uncle afraid of losing to Long Ke?" In order to avoid being seen through, Long Ya used the clip sound and imitated the shy posture of the female teacher in the adult movie while throwing a coquettish glance at Gilder Langsber.

(Long Ke: "Damn it! Long Ya, this bastard is destroying my image!")

“What a joke!” He pulled the sword out of its scabbard, turned it into a duel disk and mounted it on his arm. Gilderansber pointed at Long Ya and said, “Even if my opponent is a child, I will not show mercy. Now, I will let you know how terrifying an adult duel is!”

"Hehe, that's what I want!" The soul of the duelist burned fiercely in Long Ya's body, and Long Ya then unfolded his duel disk.

"Duel!" X2

"Longke" LP4000

Gill LP4000

(Note: No water characters, Gilder Langsberg will be referred to as Gil in the following.)

"Hehe, it's time to show the results of my training. I have the first move and draw a card!"

"Yoshi! This is a pretty good start!"

Smiling, he placed a card on the duel disk first, and Long Ya said loudly: "I normally summon, the forest thief chip, attack position!" (Attack power 800 defense power 1200) (4-star beastman in the original comic!)

At Long Ya's call, a cute little squirrel appeared in front of him.

"The special effect of the forest thief chip is activated!"

"While this monster is on the field and has not yet undergone a Battle Phase, I can Special Summon a Level 4 or lower Beast-Type monster from my hand!"

"Since I can't go into the Battle Phase on my first turn, I can directly activate this monster's special effect and Special Summon it in Attack Position, Swordsmanberry of the Forest!" (ATK 1100 DEF 300) (Adjusted from the original Beast Tribe in the manga to 3*.)

Summoning a small hedgehog holding two swords to the field, Long Ya continued: "The special effect of the forest swordsman berry is activated!"

"When this monster is Special Summoned by its effect, it can deal 300 HP of effect damage to the opposing player!"

"Go Berry, defensive stance!"

Swish!

"Gu~! Brat!"

He shot the spikes on his back at Jill. Although the 300 points of damage was not painful at all, it was undoubtedly a good show of power to Jill, a Knight Templar.

Gill LP4000＞3700

"Very good, next I will upgrade the four-star thief in the Monster Forest and the three-star swordsman in the Monster Forest!"

(4+3=7)

"The gate that symbolizes courage will open because of me. Let the scales of steel become my solid shield!"

"Sincro summons, Power Tool Dragon, attack display!" (Attack 2300 Defense 2500)

"Power Tool Dragon's special effect activated!"

"Once per turn, during my Main Phase, I can select three Equipment Magic Cards from my deck and show them to my opponent. After that, the opponent can randomly select a card from those cards. Then, I can add the card selected by the opponent to my hand, and the rest of the cards return to the deck."

"According to this effect, the three equipment cards I will reveal from my deck are Emperor's Ring, Tsubaki Arm (original comic), and Foolish Axe!"

"Okay, now it's your turn to choose a card for me!"

"Equipment card? It's quite similar to the knight's fighting style!" Jill nodded slightly and pointed to one of the cards. "I choose the Axe of Stupidity!"

"OK!" After adding the Axe of Stupidity from the deck to the hand, Long Ya then inserted the two cards into the backfield of the duel disk.

"I cover two cards on my backcourt and end my turn!"

"My turn, draw a card!"

Without any unnecessary movements, at the moment of drawing the card, Jill raised her hand and showed a card.

"I Normal Summon, Masked Knight LV3!" (Attack Power 1500) (Original Anime!)

"The special effect of Mask Knight LV3 is activated. When this monster is Normal Summoned or Special Summoned, it can deal 400 damage to the opponent!"

"Take that, T-attack!"

Swish!

A white laser shot out from the masked knight's forehead. Long Ya had never expected that the opponent would launch an attack in this way, and he was hit hard.

"Longke" LP4000＞3600

"It's not over yet, the magic card is activated and the level is increased!"

"The effect of this card is that you can send the Masked Knight on your field to the Graveyard, and then..."

"You have no chance. At this moment, I am also going to activate the effect of the cover card!" Raising his hand to interrupt Jill's turn, Long Yayin smiled and opened a card on his backfield.
