Who Let Him Play Yu-Gi-Oh! novel Chapter 711

Chương 711: Chapter 711: Three vs. One—And Still Beaten

"Reaper… Duelist?"

Jaden, Chazz, and Syrus gathered around the bed, looking at the unconscious duelist they'd hauled back from the wilds.

"This guy?"

Syrus stroked his chin.

"He looks pretty ordinary—nothing special."

"But there's a skull on his hand. Kinda creepy."

"I found it."

Chazz walked in with a terminal. The others leaned over to look at the screen.

On it was a photo of a man in a familiar school uniform. Compared side by side, the man on the bed looked more haggard, older, but he was definitely the same person.

"He's from the North Academy."

Chazz, who'd been there himself, said.

"His name is Lucien Grimley."

Before they could read more, the boy on the bed suddenly sat bolt upright.

"My deck—my deck! Where's my deck!?"

Jaden grinned and brought over his Duel Disk. "Relax, your deck's right here."

Lucien snatched it and started frantically checking card by card.

He'd heard the rumors about the Academy's main campus. Supposedly, in the last two years a twisted culture of ripping decks to steal rare cards had taken hold. If his key OTK card was stolen, he might as well be dead.

"You're a good guy," Jaden said with a sunny smile.

"Huh?"

Everyone in the room—even Lucien—stared at him in confusion.

I sold my soul to Grim Reaper, and I'm a good guy?

"Because you clearly love your deck," Jaden said, righteous and sincere. "Someone who loves their deck that much can't be a bad person."

Everyone: "…"

So many things to unpack, and yet, that was peak Jaden.

Lucien's gaze focused on Jaden.

"You! Jaden Yuki!"

Jaden pointed at himself, puzzled. "You know me?"

"Of course. The legendary natural draw saint—born with a monstrously strong draw power… damn it, a guy you can't help but envy. If I had talent, I could draw the cards I need too—so why would I…"

He bit his lip and stopped.

"You borrowed Grim Reaper's power?" Chazz said.

"That's right."

Lucien's face twisted with pain as if sinking into memory.

"It's always been this way. Every crucial duel in life—I never draw the cards I need!

If—if I could just draw what I need, I could be a strong duelist too!"

Jaden scratched his head. "But that's not a good reason to use something that dangerous…"

"I don't care! I'm the strongest duelist now, even Grim Reaper stands with me! Even the Duel King—I… huh!?"

He suddenly realized something was wrong and patted himself down in a panic.

"The Reaper… Grim Reaper is gone!"

He looked up, aghast.

"Where did you take my Reaper!?"
