============

Walking along the street looking for food, Kira reflected on himself, feeling like maybe there was something wrong with his approach.

Take the Cyber Style from the anime, for example. Other duelists rely on diligent training, practicing the art of drawing cards day and night as if they were martial artists, and only through their tireless efforts are they able to impress Cyber End Dragon and gain a spirit's recognition. _{ƒreewebηoveℓ.com}

But right now, the Silent Magician might very well be wondering how she ended up with such a bizarre master, whose method of summoning a duel monster spirit is simply to pester her until she gives in.

But looking at the results, from another angle, hey—didn't it work?

Seems like he should seriously reconsider the proper posture for building a bond.

Kira was lost in thought as he walked when he suddenly sensed something off.

At night, the alley hid quietly behind the bright lights of the city—a shortcut to the business district, only 6 or 700 meters long, with a street of late-night snacks at the end.

The air was thick with dampness and an undefinable stench. The stone pavement was uneven under the dim light, and the cold wind rustled the old tree at the entrance.

After just a few steps, the faint light illuminated a wall ahead.

A dead end.

Kira frowned.

That's not right. According to his memories, this road should go through. Did he inherit the wrong memories? Did he take a wrong turn?

Confused, he turned back the way he came—but when he reached the other end, he found another wall waiting for him, looking identical to the first one. Even the surroundings looked eerily familiar.

Could this be the legendary ghost wall trick?

Fear crept in, and every shadow seemed to hide some vengeful ghost or monster.

But Kira quickly forced himself to calm down.

In any other universe, this kind of supernatural situation would mean almost certain death. But here—it's Yu-Gi-Oh.

In this world, it didn't matter what sort of god or ghost showed up—if it wanted his life, it would have to play cards for it.

Kira stopped, staying alert, when suddenly he heard a deep roar echo from the darkness, as if from the abyss. A dark flash pierced the gloom, and a formless wave swept toward him like a blade.

Startled, he instinctively stepped back and raised his duel disk to defend himself. A flash of white light erupted from his disk, forming a translucent, crystalline magic circle that absorbed the invisible impact. The resulting shockwave left cracks in the ground and walls.

A transparent figure appeared beside him—the Silent Magician, her robe as white as snow, spinning her staff with a cold gleam.

Kira breathed a long sigh of relief.

Once again, he was certain: spirits are a must-have for daily life in this world. If your deck doesn't have two or three, you better not leave the house.

"So, you're a spirit tamer, huh?"

A rough voice sounded from the darkness. A man in a black robe emerged from the misty surroundings.

"And a high-level Magician Spirit at that. Today's my lucky day."

Kira narrowed his eyes. He couldn't see the man's face, only the green glow of his eyes beneath the hood.
