Chương 740: Chapter 740: The Supreme King's Castle
"Elemental HERO Flame Wingman attacks!"
"Flame Wingman's effect—deal damage equal to the destroyed monster's ATK!"
"Won! What a fun duel!"
Jaden struck a pose at his opponent.
He looked back—legendary gambler Joey was also brutalizing an armored demon mook.
"Flip Monster 'Dice Jar' effect: both players roll a die; the lower roll takes damage equal to the opponent's roll × 1000!" 1
"Ahahaha! I rolled a 6—Dice Jar deals 6000 damage!"
The demon mook got one-shot from full by a die roll, cursing in demonic language as he disintegrated—likely something like "what the f— kind of duel is this?!"
Hard to blame him. Anyone getting domed for 6000 by a die would react the same.
"Ah~ dueling is the best. That felt great," Jaden stretched.
"Yeah, yeah," Joey slung an arm around him. During the extradimensional campaign they clicked and became duel buddies.
They were in the 12th dimension's center—the realm of the Supreme King's Castle.
After a long journey, Kira and the two projected their consciousness through dimensions like heroes seeking the Demon King. They cut through obstacles and finally reached the final world.
The legendary Supreme King was here.
They'd seen the misery of peoples under his rule—the Supreme King's army dominated nearly all twelve dimensions, the natives suffering under their yoke.
The closer they came to the Supreme King's realm, the worse the chaos. Their resolve hardened: they would bring him down.
"Honestly, I've seen many duelists," Joey said.
"But there aren't many like you."
"Me? What about me?" Jaden asked.
"Mm… hard to put into words. It's… full of passion?" Joey searched for words. "Your duels feel like they contain something ineffable—infectious."
"Really?" Jaden scratched his head. "Ahaha, I'm nothing special. If anyone, Kira's more special…"
"That's true," Joey glanced at Kira.
"Not many like you either."
Kira spread his hands innocently.
They passed another war-ravaged town, now a ruin. Looking from the ruins, they could make out a dark mountain with a looming castle like a demon. Lightning traced the sky, the jagged silhouette sneering at all below.
"Hey, that's…"
"Mm," Kira nodded. "The Supreme King's Castle?"
The three stared in silence at the dark fortress, its skyline piercing the clouds, exuding regal authority even from afar.
"That's… the Supreme King's Castle," Jaden murmured, clenching his fist.
He had seen too much on the way: chaos under the Supreme King, oppressed people, massacred resistance. He'd befriended some of them.
