Who Let Him Play Yu-Gi-Oh! novel Chapter 656

Chương 656: Chapter 656 Thoroughly in Shambles

"Lorenzo?"

"Lorenzo?"

Lorenzo struggled to open his eyes; his eyelids felt heavy as lead. The bright lights stabbed at them. He tried to get up, but his limbs felt unbearably heavy, and he couldn't.

Then he saw Duel Academy's teacher, Ms. Fonda Fontaine, and beside her, Alexis Rhodes.

"Ms. Fontaine? Rhodes?"

Lorenzo was baffled. He was just a gaming nerd—how did he deserve the attention of these two campus celebrities?

"What… why am I here?"

Ms. Fontaine and Alexis exchanged looks.

"You don't remember anything?" Alexis asked.

Lorenzo frowned and strained to recall.

"I remember I went to Domino City for a tournament—a flight-shooting game competition. I took first place, and then…"

He scratched his head, expression tightening as he tried.

"Ah—can't remember. But I had a weird dream… right, I dreamed about Alexis."

He looked toward her and, seeing her odd expression, hurried to add,

"Ah, not that kind of improper dream—well, it was weird. I dreamed we were dueling, and my damn warship betrayed me and ran over to Alexis's side…"

He clutched his chest, shuddering.

"Good thing it was a dream. Terrifying…"

Alexis: "…"

Moments later, seeing he truly remembered nothing and was weak as if drained, Ms. Fontaine told him to rest in the infirmary. Alexis left the room, stepped into the hall, and pulled out her student terminal.

She connected to Kira.

"How is it?" Kira asked.

"No, he doesn't remember anything. Just like you said," Alexis replied.

"As expected."

"So you know what's going on?" Alexis said. "He mentioned something about the Society of Light… what is that?"

"An evil force lurking in the universe, coveting Earth," Kira said straight-faced. "Alien invaders eyeing our planet."

Alexis sighed. "I'm asking seriously."

"I answered seriously."

Kira was helpless.

He knew how absurd it sounded—but it was the truth. GX Season 2's main plot was exactly that.

"I already have leads on the Society of Light, and I'm about to have a chat with their boss," Kira pivoted.

Their boss was rather unlucky, then.

Alexis thought that, and said, "Okay. Don't worry about the academy. I'll notify the lab; everyone will be careful. If anything happens, I'll inform you."

…

"Good."

The image vanished. Kira put the terminal away and turned to a surveillance feed.

He was at the Knights of Hanoi base, watching a tracking monitor. On-screen was Aster Phoenix, who'd recently lost to him.

Aster rode his bike to a building, parked, hung the helmet, glanced around to ensure no one was watching, then pushed the door open.

Kurozaki leaned in beside Kira, cautiously watching the feed.

"Boss Revolver, is that the Society of Light's…?"

"Possibly," Kira said. "Keep watching."

…

Aster walked through a white corridor, and a blinding brilliance washed over him. He pushed a door and entered a great hall filled with white light.

"Sartorius?"

Aster called, looking around.

"Are you there?"

No answer.

He began to feel uneasy. At this hour Sartorius was always here; never this deserted.
