Who Let Him Play Yu-Gi-Oh! novel Chapter 658

Chương 658: Chapter 658 Kaiser vs. Aster

The massive arena blazed with lights and roared with voices, like a thousand surging waves becoming a boiling sea. Tension and excitement hung in the air; every inch seemed to crackle. From above, the crammed grandstands looked like a multicolored ocean of people.

A clash of the century—that's how the league billed it.

Stepping onto the stage were the two most-watched rookies in the circuit, both undefeated. Each was touted by every corner of the scene as a newcomer with the power to challenge the league's summit.

But today, one unbeaten myth was destined to break. 2

"So this is the so-called Kaiser, Zane Truesdale…"

Aster looked across at Kaiser, thinking.

The man wore all black, arms folded. His face was calm, yet a distinct, self-assured aura radiated from him.

Aster had heard the rumors—that Kaiser had changed a lot since entering the pros compared to his academy days. Likely he'd tasted the harshness of the scene and undergone a metamorphosis.

His instincts as a pro told him there was danger about this man.

Of course, not enough to shake his confidence.

Even if the outside world called it a clash of the century, even if everyone thought they were evenly matched and this would decide the rookie king, for Aster this was no different from any of his previous thirty wins.

He was just here to claim the victory fated to be his.

"Aster Phoenix," Zane Truesdale said coolly. "I hear you enrolled at Duel Academy as well. Pity our times there didn't overlap."

"Haha, perfect—then let's make up for that missed encounter right here."

Aster raised his Duel Disk and smiled.

Flames jetted from both sides of the arena, hyping the crowd and serving like a starter's pistol. Both Duel Disks snapped open.

"Duel!" x2

"I'll go first. Draw."

Aster glanced at the card he drew and revealed it.

"I activate the Spell 'Take Over 5'—send the top five cards of my Deck to the GY." 1

Zane nodded—familiar. In the academy, both Jaden and Kira often used it. Curious that Aster would, too.

But soon, he'd realize that wasn't the only coincidence.

Aster gave a mysterious smile.

"As I said in the interview, today I'm using my true deck—the one I've kept in reserve. You'll be the first pro to face it, senpai."

"Oh? I'm flattered," Zane smirked, arms still crossed, feigning indifference.

So this guy had rattled off thirty straight pro wins without even using his real deck—just playing around.

Don't underestimate him.

"I Summon Elemental HERO Avian in Defense Position!"

The crowd erupted.

A HERO deck!

This was Aster Phoenix's true archetype all along.

Seeing that familiar green whirlwind and pure white wings, Zane wasn't surprised—only the corner of his mouth lifted.

As expected. 1

His original deck was HERO.

Aster: "I set one card and end my turn."

He looked at Zane and smiled.

"Your turn, senpai."

Zane's lips curled into a confident grin as well. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

HERO—what a fitting fate.
