Who Let Him Play Yu-Gi-Oh! novel Chapter 552

Chapter 552: Chapter 552: Event Invitation

Kira: "."

Right, almost forgot again. Fraulein is a vampire and hates the sun.

In the dimension she was in before, it was eternal night, with a blood-red moon hanging in the sky—naturally an excellent habitat for a vampire. But this world has daylight. She hates the sun, so she normally wouldn’t come out and wander around.

In fact, vampires in this world aren’t as afraid of sunlight as in traditional stories—at least not to the "instant death upon exposure" extent. The blazing sun merely makes them uncomfortable; it won’t kill them on contact.

Still, it’s better to avoid it when possible.

Kira’s thoughts became more active.

His current spirits are helpful, but still quite limited. First, their active time is restricted. Second, since the spirit cards are in his possession, they can’t stray too far from him to act independently.

But spirits like the Dark Scorpion Burglars, whose bodies have come into reality, are different. Their activity time is practically unrestricted, and they can go out and carry out missions alone. Such monster spirits can do much more.

"By the way."

Kira remembered something and looked at the group.

"Do you know how to transform?"

"Huh?"

The Burglars stared wide-eyed.

"I mean change into someone else’s appearance," Kira said. "Or hypnosis? Mind control?"

Because he remembered that in the last season of the anime, the spirit Honest who entered reality could do it. He transformed into his former master’s appearance, mingled among students, and used mental manipulation and hypnotic suggestion to blend in without arousing suspicion.

Only later, when he tried that trick on Jaden, he hit a wall. His usually foolproof move didn’t work on maxed-out Jaden.

So Kira figured these might be basic skills among spirits.

However, the few dim-witted Burglars just shook their heads like rattles, indicating they didn’t know.

Kira nodded.

Makes sense—if they could transform, those clownish infiltration attempts wouldn’t have failed so badly.

"I can."

Fraulein puffed out her small chest a little, somewhat proud.

Kira’s eyes lit up. "You can disguise and transform?"

"Mm, not that... But hypnosis and mental influence, that’s what our blood clan is good at."

"Oh?"

Kira gave Fraulein another look, apparently reassessing her.

Being looked at like that made Fraulein a bit embarrassed. Her small hands tugged unconsciously at her skirt as she looked down at her toes.

"Not bad, not bad."

Kira thought this trick would indeed be useful and could make many things easier in the future.

Though, as expected, this sort of move probably works best on ordinary people. Those with extraordinary abilities mostly have resistance. Like when Honest tried to use not even strong control, just a minor hypnotic suggestion to nudge identity recognition on Jaden—it not only failed but exposed him.

As he was thinking, he suddenly felt someone tugging at the hem of his clothes from behind.

Kira turned his head to see that Silent had appeared at some point, pouting, a little displeased.

Strangely, she didn’t speak, but Kira understood her meaning—

—Hey, I can do that too.

Come to think of it, of course. She’s a bona fide mage; she should have the most miscellaneous arcane spells and skills. Things like transformation and disguise, mental influence magic—she should have at least some of that.

Even if she didn’t, she could probably learn. He’d seen her hugging books, training hard every day.

It’s just that in the spirits’ world, she likely has her own life, unlike the Burglars who’ve come to reality and can act freely here. Her activities in this world are still restricted, making many things less convenient.

That thought crossed Kira’s mind, but he still smiled. "True, you’re the strongest."

He said that, and Silent let go without speaking, yet it was unclear whether she’d guessed what he was thinking.

Silent glanced at him, said nothing, and retreated into the deck.

But that look made Kira inexplicably feel he’d received a message—

—She’s going back today to pack up and set out.
