Chapter 983: The Eve of the Great Battle
Chapter 983: The Eve of the Great Battle
In the dark region of the Elemental Dimension, a pair of eyes slowly opened.
"You're back?" a gloomy voice asked.
After a brief silence, the voice of the Eraser, the Left God, sounded.
"Yeah."
The Root of Fear, the second brother, inquired, "How did things go?"
The Eraser replied vaguely, "Not bad, I guess."
"You failed," the Root of Fear stated.
The Eraser was speechless.
Indeed, he was at a loss for words. In truth, recent events had exceeded their expectations. In their original plan, the three brothers, the Left God, should have been able to roam freely in the present age, wreaking havoc and killing at will. But to their surprise, they had encountered obstacles at every turn.
First, they faced a human Duel King who repeatedly got the better of them, and now, even a random student from the Duel Academy had bested them. The Left God couldn't help but wonder if their long seal had weakened them, or if monsters of their caliber were now commonplace.
How could it be that the mighty Left God couldn't defeat anyone?
After returning, the Eraser was even more infuriated. He felt that he couldn't just swallow this defeat and decided to take action again, "No, I was careless last time. This time, I'll make sure to get that kid and his Elemental Spirit together."
"Save your strength," a more somber voice echoed from the depths of the darkness.
Hearing the eldest brother speak, the Eraser trembled and immediately lowered his head, not daring to respond.
"A great battle is approaching. Save your energy," God's Avatar said, "Even though we're acting through projections, it still consumes our spiritual energy. You're the weakest among us, and if you waste your energy now, you might become a liability in the upcoming battle."
The Eraser was unconvinced, but he replied, "Yes, big brother is right."
Indeed, their true forms were currently sealed and unable to leave. Even when acting through projections, they were merely occupying the bodies of others like puppets, which still took a toll on their true forms. A loss in a Dark Duel wouldn't directly destroy their source, but collateral damage was inevitable.
The Eraser asked curiously, "By the way, what great battle is big brother referring to?"
It had been a long time since he had seen his eldest brother so serious.
God's Avatar explained, "A human Duelist, the one known as 'King' among humans, has probably discovered this place before us.
They could launch an attack at any moment."
The Eraser's eyes flashed, "They dare to come to our territory and seek death?"
"It seems so. But don't be careless," God's Avatar warned, "We can't afford another failure."
The Root of Fear chuckled, "Previously, we were restricted and couldn't act in person, allowing our enemies to take advantage. Now, those foolish humans are daring to come here in person. Isn't that seeking death?"
God's Avatar didn't deny it.
Indeed, although this was their sealed land, the brothers had been here for so long that even they couldn't remember. This realm had become their natural barrier, and within it, their 'power' would be amplified beyond its usual limits, while their opponents' strength would be suppressed.
"Additionally, if it comes down to it, that person from beyond time should also lend us a hand," the Root of Fear added.
The Eraser agreed, "That's right. He promised that if it comes down to it, he'll help us break the seal."
And once the seal is broken, even if it's not just an outstanding human, even if the Pharaoh were still alive, what could he do?"
The avatar of God also knew that the brothers were speaking the truth, and he chuckled lightly.
"Even today, human ignorance compared to the past may not have decreased all that much. They believe that the single leaf before their eyes is the whole world, it's truly laughable."
The world's conflict is imminent, and the dimensional rupture is right before our eyes. At that time, countless worlds will fall into chaos, and what follows will likely be endless darkness and destruction."
The Root of Fear spoke, "But that's exactly what we want, isn't it?"
The avatar of God laughed out loud.
"Of course."
The evil deity smirked.
"That will be the era that belongs to us."
"Kaiba?!"
As they watched, a transparent blue ripple appeared, and Kaiba's virtual image indeed stepped onto the ripples and walked towards them. Yu Xuan was surprised to see Kaiba.
Kaiba was busy with group affairs all over the world every day, and it was uncertain whether he was on Earth or even in this dimension. Even Yu Xuan hadn't seen the president for a while.
Kaiba approached and glanced at Yu Xuan, saying, "You've got quite the aura. You've been keeping busy these days."
The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ say ⊥ in ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥ ⊥ book ⊥ ⊥ bar ⊥ ⊥ first ⊥ release!
Yu Xuan replied, "Having received so much from the president, I can't let him down or waste his expectations and cultivation."
Kaiba's lips curled upwards, "Hmph."
The president might have already started planning the next match with Yu Xuan in his mind.
Of course, not today, not now. Everyone present knew that there were more important matters to attend to at this moment.
Malik also greeted the president, "President."
"Malik."
Kaiba replied indifferently.
"Speaking of which, we still owe a match in the Duel City."
When Malik advanced to the finals, he faced off against Yugi, who smoothly advanced, while Kaiba was eliminated by Yugi. The final match was between Yugi and Malik. As a result, Kaiba never got the chance to duel with Mr. Malik again.
But before Malik could open his mouth, Kaiba smiled, "Just kidding."
Malik politely said, "If the president is willing, after today's business is done, we can find an opportunity to spar in the future."
Kaiba smiled but didn't respond.
In fact, he always had the chance to spar with Malik, after all, Mr. Malik hadn't disappeared into the underworld or vanished from the human world these years. However, Kaiba also knew that the person he wanted to find was not the one before him, but the dark personality that had already been eliminated. Although the remaining shell had considerable strength, it wasn't the person he was looking for.
This was also one of the reasons why the president's addiction to dueling had gradually accumulated over the years, and he was constantly thinking about going to the underworld to find his old rival. Those top players he acknowledged from the same era were either content with their current situation and eliminated by new rules, or they had retired and disappeared, or they had passed away, or they had been banned and couldn't be found.
This made the president even more depressed.
He claimed that he sought a defeat but couldn't find one, and it wasn't that he was afraid of the heights. The president was well aware that he wasn't at the peak yet, and there were many stronger than him, but he was frustrated that he couldn't find any of these people, as if they had all vanished from the human world.
This also made the reappearance of the evil deity even more precious.
"Let's go."
Kaiba stepped forward and said.
"You're going to find the evil deity, right? Count me in. I have a score to settle with those three as well."
