Who Let Him Play Yu-Gi-Oh! novel Chapter 228

Chapter 228: Chapter 228: The Passing Legend

The duel was settled quickly. The Seal of Orichalcos began to contract, the six-pointed star spinning in reverse until it shrank to the feet of the burly beastman.

The soul was drawn away by the green light, absorbed into the sky, vanishing without a trace.

Even as he finally collapsed to his knees, the Divine Messenger’s face was still full of shock and deep regret—

—regret that he hadn’t run for his life the moment he met this monster.

If he could have another chance, he’d never, ever duel someone like this again.

"Your deck’s not bad, but your skills still need some work."

Kira stepped forward. The soulless body of the large beastman quickly glowed gold and disintegrated into sparkling points of light.

Kira bent down and picked up the deck.

This opponent’s deck was strong, but Kira could sense that his level of destiny power was lacking. Even with the seal’s boost, he was still a notch below Kira as he was now. So, while the deck was a top-tier one for its era, it wasn’t too tough for Kira to handle.

In fact, with his persistent training and the deepening power of the spirits, Kira’s destiny power was now only slightly below that of the top characters from the original story. Even disregarding deck construction and just talking about draws, he was already among the elite in the dueling world.

So to him now, this deck was a bit wasted in the Divine Messenger’s hands.

But that didn’t matter.

From now on, the deck will be in the right hands and realize its true value.

If the Divine Messenger could know that his deck would shine brighter in someone else’s hands, he could probably rest easy.

Kira tucked the deck away, quite satisfied with his haul.

Honestly, his body here was just a virtual projection; he’d vanish from the spirit world as soon as he logged out, so the decks he collected here couldn’t be taken back directly.

But that was fine. He couldn’t take them himself, but his spirits could bring them back to reality for him.

Also, while the Divine Messenger’s build was close to top-tier Baboon decks, it was mostly just specialized around Green Baboon; its strength mainly came from how powerful the card was by itself. But his deck still differed from the true meta builds.

Kira figured he could study it later and probably optimize it further. Once perfected, it could be a very powerful deck.

Besides the deck, he also picked up some trinkets.

For example, a fragment of Orichalcos—he recognized this now, it was like a badge of rank within the Orichalcos cult.

But this time, he also found a blank card.

That surprised Kira a bit.

White cards (blanks) weren’t unheard of in the original anime and were always overpowered. The first appearance might have been in DM’s Orichalcos arc—the blank card Pegasus printed.

Everyone knows the biggest advantage of blanks is "they can become anything you want." The blank space is left for you to print whatever effect you need on the spot, depending on the duel’s situation—limited only by your imagination.

But not just anyone could use them. Usually, you had to have a "Jellyfish head" or a "Yugi" in your name, and the atmosphere had to be right...

Kira thought that while his destiny power had improved, he was probably still far from being able to print cards at will. Getting a blank card felt like more than he could handle.

But the BLS quickly corrected this thought.
