Who Let Him Play Yu-Gi-Oh! novel Chapter 1119

Chapter 1119: Chapter 1119: If You Want to Know, Then Fight

Greiger’s Duel Runner took a massive hit. The mighty punch from the god nearly flipped the triangular vehicle as it spun out of control across the pavement, its huge tires screeching, metal scraping and spraying clear sparks.

"Ahhhhh—!"

Greiger—or rather, the evil god inside him—roared in fury and frustration.

Greiger’s large body was thrown from the Duel Runner, rolling several times along the ground before slamming hard into the outer barrier of the track.

It should be said that Greiger’s human body had long been dead. Now, he was a Dark Signer, a living corpse bolstered by the power of the evil god. Otherwise, for an ordinary human, being thrown like that would have shattered every bone in his body.

Of course, the dark duel had already summoned an Earthbound Immortal. Even if the physical trauma wouldn’t have killed him, the aftermath of the duel almost certainly would.

At least—for now.

This is why they say Earthbound Immortals are perhaps the "best bosses" in Yu-Gi-Oh! history: they grant the dead new life as Dark Signers, a second chance. Even when a Shadow Duel is lost and the soul is seemingly forfeit, death is only temporary.

Once the Dark Signer arc concludes and the Earthbound Immortal faction is defeated, everyone who died comes back to life—sacrificed or lost in a duel, in the end they all return, safe and sound, to their ordinary lives.

Of course, before the fall of the Earthbound Immortals, the Dark Signers themselves had no idea there would be a chance at resurrection.

Just like now—Greiger felt, to him, his story was truly over.

"I’ll remember you..."

The evil god, through Greiger’s eyes, glared hatefully at Kira. Those words seemed to drain the last of its lingering power from Greiger, as the sinister aura gradually separated and faded away.

Greiger’s eyes slowly regained clarity. But his body was still sprawled in the corner of the racetrack, with no strength left to rise.

"Hey! You—!" Fudo Yusei quickly leapt onto the track, running toward Greiger. "Are you okay?"

Greiger closed his eyes and let out a long sigh.

"I lost... utterly and completely."

At this moment, Kira’s Duel Runner also stopped beside Greiger. He dismounted and walked over slowly.

Greiger raised his head with effort, looking at "Director Goodwin," and said with difficulty, "Sorry, Director... I... cough was easily deceived by the words of evil.

"When I saw the tragedy of my homeland, thought of my murdered siblings, my mind went blank. I was overwhelmed by vengeance, consumed to the core, not even bothering to verify the facts. I just believed the smear campaign against you so simply... cough"

"It’s alright," Kira replied calmly. "When it comes to family, everyone easily loses themselves. It’s perfectly understandable."

Greiger gave a bitter smile. "Luckily, Director, your strength... actually, that’s an understatement. It seems you’re the kind of living legend that legends talk about. I always thought my dueling skills were top-tier, never imagined there’d be anyone this strong, or monsters so mighty.

To have divine power like that... maybe, in your eyes, ’Earthbound Immortals’ really are just fake gods."

Kira said, "You don’t have much time left. Let ask a question quickly."

Greiger nodded. "Ask me anything I know... cough"

"Your revenge—was it entirely your own will? Was anyone else behind it, especially anyone NOT a Dark Signer pushing you?"

Ever since the last battle with the Skeleton Knight, Kira suspected a ’manipulator behind history’ was focusing on him. Skeleton Knight had seen through his disguise as the real Director Goodwin, so the manipulator probably knew too. Maybe Greiger was sent by that very power.

But Greiger shook his head. "No, it was all for revenge—my own actions. Not even the other Dark Signers knew."

He clenched his fist and gritted his teeth. "I was blind! My true enemies were right beside me, yet I knew nothing. I even went along with them, nearly... nearly hurt the good guys!"

Rage boiled in his heart. He now hated the other Dark Signers, craved revenge—but he also knew the rules of the Shadow Duel: lose, and your body begins to crumble, like decay speeding up before your eyes.

No matter the hate, there’d be no chance for revenge anymore.

"It doesn’t matter," Kira replied steadily. "The souls absorbed by the Earthbound Immortals didn’t vanish. They’re being gathered for the final ritual to open the door to the Netherworld.
