Who Let Him Play Yu-Gi-Oh! novel Chapter 855

Chapter 855: Chapter 855: Master of the Academy

Jesse Anderson did not show up right away.

As Adrian had said, the boy was like a ghost. Five people had come to the Duel Academy this time, and he was the only one who had yet to appear before the others.

But the reason wasn’t that he was aloof or mysterious. It was simply that Jesse... was hopeless with directions.

Yep, he got lost like Zoro.

Not that it mattered much. After the chancellor spent a few awkward seconds smiling on stage, the legendary Jesse Anderson finally appeared at the doorway, panting, drenched in sweat as he hurried up to the podium.

"Ahahaha, I’m so sorry. I didn’t expect the main campus to be this big. I couldn’t find the auditorium for a bit, ahaha."

The chancellor cleared his throat and let it pass.

The last to be introduced was Professor Viper.

He had a downright vicious face, and his tone was even harsher. He took the mic and said bluntly, "Today was supposed to be about greetings and building rapport, but saying all that won’t make anyone stronger.

So let’s skip the boring pleasantries and go straight to live combat. That’s my teaching policy!

We’ll implement it right now: an inter-campus exhibition duel!"

At that, even the chancellor and the instructors on stage looked at him in shock.

Huh?

This was on the agenda?

No one said anything about that.

Just deciding this on his own...

"The duelists will be chosen by me."

Though he was a visiting professor, Viper spoke as willfully as if he were the chancellor himself.

Viper narrowed his eyes.

The student he was most interested in here, of course, was—

"Jaden Yuki!"

In the stands, Jaden pointed at himself, bewildered. "Huh? Me?"

Professor Viper didn’t answer. He then pointed at Jesse, who had only just made it on stage.

"Jesse Anderson!"

He’d tried to gather Jaden Yuki’s data before and failed. Since the indirect approach hadn’t worked, he’d do it the straightforward way—use his authority as exchange professor to arrange a duel.

He glanced at Chancellor Sheppard behind him. "No problem, Headmaster?"

Sheppard frowned, then decided to give the guest professor some face. "Well, practical combat is indeed best. I have no objection."

Viper nodded, satisfied. "Excellent. Then it’s decided—"

"Hold on a second."

Someone cut in.

Viper looked toward the student seats and frowned at the person standing up.

The students started buzzing.

The Lord of the Yellow Dorm!

"Mr. Kira!" Jesse, who already knew Kira, waved energetically.

Axel and Jim, who were seeing him for the first time, couldn’t help but look over as well.

"So that’s the living legend of Duel Academy, the Duel King..."

Jim rubbed his hands. "What I wanted most on this trip was to try my hand against the legend, after all. Right, Shirley?"

The crocodile named Shirley on his back growled excitedly twice.

"You’re Fujiki Kira, right?" Professor Viper frowned. "Do you have a problem with my policy?"
