Who Let Him Play Yu-Gi-Oh! novel Chapter 921

Chapter 921: Chapter 921: Cooperation

Coastal area, Duel Academy—Underwater.

The submarine from the Gecko Conglomerate was still stationed there.

"Ma’am." 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

A soldier from the conglomerate reported to Echo.

"There’s still no contact today."

"I see."

Echo waved her hand, looking listless.

They’d been on standby here for days. No one had any idea what the current status of this mission was, whether it was still ongoing, or if there was any reason for them to remain.

A few days ago, KaibaCorp’s people had shown up, essentially taking over the case.

Professor Viper was already exposed, and had reportedly been personally dealt with by the Duel King. The conglomerate’s whole reason for coming was Viper, but now their main target had vanished.

As for the spirits Viper had, even KaibaCorp had been mobilized, so it was likely out of their hands now.

Yet, even so, they hadn’t received any orders to withdraw. In fact, they hadn’t received any notifications at all for days.

Their main job was to support Adrian; he handled the real intel-gathering and operations. He’d always been the one to command and notify them when to move in.

But now, the problem was that their leader had gone silent—

This was the first time in all her years working with Adrian that Echo had seen such a situation.

As the conglomerate’s hidden ace, Adrian had always put the company first, charging at the front lines. He always made optimal decisions and gave precise orders.

But this time, Echo felt that Adrian seemed to have lost all interest in the mission. Actually, it was as if he didn’t even care about the conglomerate anymore.

She wasn’t even sure if he was still carrying out the mission.

Adrian was unreachable for long stretches, and from what Echo knew, he was spending most of his time with that Duel King. The two would lock themselves in a room for half a day at a time—who knew what they were up to in there?

For the first time ever, Echo—who knew Adrian best—couldn’t help but doubt.

Did the young master get poached from the conglomerate?

...

At that moment, Yubel was looking at Kira with a strange expression.

"Can you stop staring at me like that?"

Kira shrugged, "What’s wrong with looking? Don’t be so stingy."

Yubel: "Haven’t you heard it’s rude to stare at a lady?"

Kira: "Huh? Are you a lady?"

Yubel: "..."

"Honestly, I’ve always wondered." Kira shrugged. "Besides, I’m not looking at your body—I’m just studying your cards."

Yubel: "That is my body."

Yes, that’s right. Kira was currently in his personal lab, with Yubel’s deck spread out before him.

The three cards in the center: Yubel herself, Yubel—Terror Incarnate, and Yubel—The Ultimate Nightmare.

"I’ve done all the tests you wanted, you’ve got all the data you needed—what more do you want?"

Yubel was clearly unhappy.
