Chapter 911: Yu-Gi-Oh! Resurrection Log
In the late hours of the night, on the island of the Duel Academy, most students had already counted sheep and drifted off to sleep. A group of men dressed in black, wearing identical combat uniforms, helmets, and carrying specialized detection equipment, marched in a disciplined formation through the forest.
On the back of their uniforms, a uniform "KC" mark represented the Kaiba Corporation.
They were a reconnaissance team sent by the Kaiba Corporation.
Days had passed since their arrival on the island, and their target was a dangerous spirit. According to their investigations around the island over the past few days, the spirit was likely still there.
However, strangely, despite conducting a thorough search of the island's surroundings, they had not found any traces of the spirit. None of their instruments, designed to detect spirit energy fluctuations, had shown any response.
Only high-level spirits could evade detection, and even then, it was not easy. To remain completely undetected, a spirit must refrain from using its extraordinary powers to a significant extent. Any energy fluctuations exceeding a certain threshold would immediately attract the attention of the nearby reconnaissance team.
But in reality, after days of searching, not only had they failed to catch a glimpse of the spirit, but their instruments hadn't picked up even the slightest abnormal data.
As the team advanced, a strange noise suddenly came from the bushes to their side. Two nearby members immediately turned with caution and looked in the direction of the bushes.
However, as they cautiously approached and parted the bushes, they found nothing but an empty space.
Well, not entirely empty, as a small pile of rabbit droppings lay there.
"It's probably just a rabbit," one of the members grumbled.
"Most likely. All the instruments are still not showing any response," his partner said.
The team leader spoke up, "Let's finish searching this area for tonight."
Someone muttered, "Damn, where did it hide? Could it have left the island already?"
"There should be a barrier around the island that detects spirit reactions. If something left, there should be a response."
"But we've checked all the suspicious areas, and there's been no reaction at all."
"Damn, it couldn't have just vanished into thin air."
". . ."
The reconnaissance team continued their conversation as they walked away.
After they left, a pair of eyes lit up in the shadows nearby.
A small, white figure slowly emerged from the shadows. It was a tiny white rabbit with long ears, but its eyes were strangely heterochromatic.
[Yu-Gi-Oh! Resurrection Log]
[Another unlucky day. Those unfortunate humans are still wandering around, showing no signs of leaving anytime soon. It seems they possess the ability to sense spirit power, and any slight use of my power might attract their attention.
Of course, I'm not afraid of them. These humans are but worms before me, and even in my half-crippled state, crushing them would be effortless.
But I cannot do that. I know these are mere decoys sent to test me, insignificant pawns. Killing even one of them would draw the attention of the truly dangerous figure behind the scenes.
Yuuugen Fujiki.
I never expected that this world would have such a dangerous demon king. Though I am not afraid of him, I must admit that my current state is not suitable for battle.
I need patience, time, and more nourishment to recover.]
[These past few days have been challenging. On the first day, I narrowly avoided a man who was searching for me. He had one eye, and his weapon was a revolver. He seemed to be a spirit, and likely a minion of the demon king.
I knew I could easily defeat him, but I didn't make a move. That would draw unnecessary attention.
I must hide in the shadows, become one with the darkness. I traversed the galaxy, enduring unimaginable pain that would crush ordinary mortals, just to return here. It doesn't matter how long it takes. All of this is for you, my Touya.】
【The second day brought a torrential downpour. I cursed this broken body, which prevented me from moving. The rain was cold, but not as cold as my heart, which had been calling out for you day and night without response. The conditions were harsh, but they couldn't compare to the decade-long journey I had endured.
What mattered was that I had returned and would eventually be by your side again, reciprocating the love you gave me. It's almost time, wait for me a little longer, my love.】
【On the third day, I managed to possess a rabbit. It had an unpleasant stench, and I despised it, but I had no other choice.
I concealed my presence, and the foolish searchers were completely unaware as I brushed past them. The decade-long journey through the stars had taught me many things, including how to hide within a host's body and avoid unwanted attention.
The Duel Academy was now within sight, and all I needed was to randomly find a student and, with luck, infiltrate the academy. Soon, I would be by your side again.
But at the same time, I was also getting closer to the Demon King, making my situation even more dangerous.
Perhaps I would fail, perhaps I might never see you again. But regardless of the outcome, I want you to know that I will always love you, Touya.】
【This is why I must erase everyone who took your love away.】
None of the content is correct.
“.”
In the early morning, Gana Malden, a first-year student from the Ra-Yellow Dormitory, yawned and made his way to the lighthouse outside the academy.
At this hour, the lighthouse was still deserted. Malden stood on the shore, gazing out at the vast blue sea, and stretched his arms lazily.
He was a somewhat reclusive child. Due to his parents' divorce, he had been introverted and timid since childhood, requiring immense courage even to speak to his classmates. As a result, he had almost no friends.
This didn't change much when he came to Duel Academy. People around him would naturally keep their distance, and wherever he went, a vacuum of several meters would form around him without any apparent reason.
There was only one exception.
Saotome Rei, a girl who entered the academy the same year as him.
Despite being the most outstanding and powerful newcomer of the year, she took care of him, a seemingly invisible student, and was almost the only person in the academy who would talk to him.
Although the child prodigy Saotome Rei, who entered the academy through grade skipping, was younger than him, she treated him like an older sister.
But even Rei didn't know Malden's biggest secret.
His father, the man who had divorced his mother and, in Malden's eyes, abandoned them both, was one of the top officials of this academy—Napoleon Coach.
This resentment was the deepest grudge and darkness in Gana Malden's heart.
If he were just an ordinary person, this darkness might never have been uncovered and would have remained buried deep within his heart for a lifetime, perhaps never even mentioned to others.
But the world lines converged. Although the plot had significantly deviated from the original story, on this morning, Gana Malden encountered the demon who would change his life forever, just as in the original world line.
Right here, on the shore of Duel Academy, beneath the lighthouse.
He saw that terrifying little white rabbit with its rare heterochromia.
