Yu-Gi-Oh! Starting from Duel City

Chapter 190 Mask, I don’t wear it anymore

The special ability to invade the inner world of others and tamper with their memory and cognition within a certain range is the specialty of the "Millennium Key".

For Peacock Wu, who was affected by the dark duel at this moment and fell into a strange state, Yu Ling, who obtained this targeted millennium artifact from Xia Di, was more powerful than the weapon with balanced attributes hanging on his chest. As for the King of Millennium Building Blocks, he is more suitable to do this and to deal with Dark Malik who is obviously engaging in off-site tricks.

"Ah, since you said so... I leave the matter of Wu to you, You Ling!"

After hearing what You Ling said, Wang Xiang nodded to him and immediately gave up his plan to intervene.

After that, including Isis and Wang Yang.Under the gaze of Kaiba and others, You Ling reached out and took out the Millennium Key that was hidden by the black robe and hanging on his chest, and pointed it at Peacock Dance who was confronting Dark Malik on the field. with the direction.

Recalling Xia Di's previous actions when he invaded his inner world, he closed his eyes in a similar manner, activated the Millennium Key effect of You Ling, and with a burst of golden dazzling light, his consciousness successfully invaded the peacock. In the inner world of dance.

On the other side, in Peacock Dance's inner world.

In this confusing chaotic space with no distinction between up, down, left and right, the field of vision is filled with endless darkness. Peacock Wu, who can't find the way forward, is groping for his steps in the darkness, carefully looking for the exit based on his intuition.

In the void not far behind her, there was the figure of Dark Malik with his arms folded and looking proudly at the peacock dance he was teasing.

At this point when Dark Malik was licking his lips, expecting Peacock Dance to be controlled by him, and about to voluntarily give up the duel in a state of self-doubt, Yu Ling, who activated the power of the Millennium Key, happened to be accompanied by a wave that could not be ignored. A golden light appeared beside him, and he met Dark Malik, who subconsciously showed a surprised expression.

"Who the hell do you think you are? It turns out to be that little boy, You Ling!!!"

Noticing that You Ling suddenly appeared in front of him, with a familiar golden light shining on his chest, and that his appearance was slightly different from his impression, Dark Malik couldn't help but froze on the spot.

Different from the appearance in the outside world, the You Ling who came to Peacock Wu's inner world in a state of consciousness at this time is not the "faceless man" who used a black robe and a mask to cover his personal image before, but It shows the appearance of the sunny boy he was when he first came into this world.

If it weren't for the existence of the Millennium Key, Yan Yi Master An Malik might not have been able to recognize You Ling, the young man who had tricked him so hard, but would have regarded him as an intruder. Treat all three.

Although in reality, You Ling who is here now is just a third party who came here to cause trouble...

"Boss Malik? Hey... I don't have time to chat with you right now."

"Varied……"

Glancing at Dark Malik beside him, Yu Ling, who was using this invasion ability for the first time and had limited time, immediately moved his body and came to the vicinity of Peacock Dance in a floating state.

After noticing the confused state of her eyes that had lost their luster at this moment, You Ling immediately stretched out his hands, clasping his fingers together, and actively grasped Peacock Wu's groping palms.

"Wu, I'm here to pick you up."

"This golden light? And this feeling of touch...are you..."

Hearing You Ling's voice coming from the darkness in front of him, and feeling the warmth coming from the palm of his hand, Peacock Wu stopped instinctively and looked at the light that gradually emerged in his eyes. You Ling's figure: "Are you... You Ling? And this light... exactly?"

You Ling, who appeared in this inner space, did not put on the mask and cloak that were inherent in his impression, but showed his original appearance, that of a black-haired boy who Isis called a slightly shot-like appearance. .

Listening to the voice that You Ling conveyed to him, and looking at the real face of You Ling, who looked a little younger than the image he imagined, he felt some kind of impact in his heart, and couldn't help but perform a peacock dance of motherly love. , couldn't help but open his mouth slightly, showing a rather shocked expression.

In her mind, You Ling's appearance was more handsome and cute than handsome.

At least observing You Ling's Peacock Dance, it was impossible to connect his image with the dog man who had deliberately teased her, snatched the feather sweep from her hand, and kept making arrogant laughter.

This cute little brother who looks a bit like a girl and has nothing to do with the villains is the Yu Ling who took away something important from me?In the middle...is there something wrong?
I thought You Ling’s true face was actually the second generation of Malik!
"...Yu~~Zero! You damn traitor!!! After hindering me so many times before, are you planning to hinder my plan again???"

Stimulated by the intimate behavior of the doggie man and woman intertwining their fingers in the field of vision, An Malik finally came to his senses and suddenly let out a ghost-like voice of resentment from his mouth.

Looking at Yu Ling, whose chest was shining with the light of the Millennium Key, which was not inferior to the light of the Millennium Tin Staff in his hand, Dark Malik, who had had a head-to-head confrontation with him before, the calm expression on his face disappeared and was replaced What is coming is a demon with a hateful light with a resentful look.

They come out again and again to hinder my great cause!
If I had known it would turn out like this, when I saw you, I should have swaddled you to death!It’s right not to give you any chance to develop!

"Dance, take a deep breath and calm down. Don't be fooled by the illusions Malik has created."

In fact, You Ling could even forcibly edit Peacock Wu's memory and status here before, changing her character into the type that symbolizes his preference, and even directly boosting her favorability towards him to full level.

However, You Ling, who is not aware of the irreversible consequences of this behavior, has no plans to do so for the time being.

Slowly tightening his palms, and through this close physical contact, You Ling calmly conveyed the method of breaking the situation to the peacock dance in front of him.

Feeling the breath and heartbeat conveyed from You Ling, Peacock Wu got rid of the alone state, was wrapped in warmth, and gradually calmed down. With You Ling's encouragement, Peacock Wu began to reflect on his current situation.

"Illusion...could it be said that the feeling of loneliness and loneliness I just experienced is just my illusion? In fact, these things do not exist?" "Yes, in the dark duel where life is at stake , the mentally fragile party is destined to become the loser and become the sacrifice sacrificed to the darkness."

Answering Peacock Wu's question, You Ling continued to say to her: "In this environment, you will constantly see the fear in your heart and the illusory scenes that make you feel scared, and you will always be affected by it. , when the inner fear reaches a certain threshold, you will fall into a state of mental imbalance and lose the courage to continue fighting."

To put it another way, Cthulhu would say that at the moment when he looked directly at the ancient god, the SAN value reached the critical point, and he entered madness and headed for the road of self-destruction.

"You Ling..."

With an imperceptible voice, he called out the name of the person who appeared in his inner world and in front of his eyes like a savior, who was holding his hands vigorously at this moment, and a peacock with a gleaming look appeared in his eyes. Wu couldn't help lowering his head: "I always feel that I have lost something very important, I have lost those important things that have always supported me... In this way, I can really continue to fight. Are you going down? It really... doesn't matter?"

You Ling: "..."

"Stop being so coquettish! A true duelist should have a will of steel and tenacity of iron! What kind of duelist are you who are saying these depressing words here! Why don't you wake up quickly! Beat your opponent ruthlessly Give it a blast!"

To be honest, if the person standing in front of him now and saying these depressing words was a big man like Jonouchi or Wang Xiang or Kaiba, Yu Ling might not even think about it. While saying the above words, he would just say a big mouth. Zi greeted him and passed by.

However, for a big-sister beauty like Peacock Wu, You Ling, who cherishes her beauty, is still unable to wake her up through such a violent method.

After some deliberation in his mind, You Ling made a decision, and then released his hand holding Peacock Wu, and instead hugged Peacock Wu's body, which was at its lowest point at the moment, showing his cowardly side.

"Wu, don't give up. Even if you lose, it's not a big deal. At that time, you just need to leave everything to me. Then, you can do your best to achieve your goal, no matter what the result is. , you just need to know that you have worked hard..."

"...You have come to the stage of the decisive battle, and you have fought with all your strength here. As for the final outcome, those are not important anymore, are they?"

"You Ling..."

Feeling the strange feeling of being held in someone's arms, Peacock Wu had an inexplicable look on her face. After hesitating for a moment, she finally chose to accept the situation calmly and hugged You Ling's arms with her own hands. Body.

While feeling the warmth conveyed by You Ling, Peacock Wu slowly closed her eyes.

"Your words make my heart feel warm and touched, but... I don't intend to give up just like that!"

Although under the influence of the Dark Duel, Peacock Wu has forgotten the existence of Kyoko and Jonouchi's companions, deep in Peacock Wu's heart, there are still those marks that will never be erased.

You Ling, who hugged Peacock Wu's body and felt the fighting will surging in her heart from her heartbeat, released his arms holding her, smiled at her and said: "Wu, remember, You have to try to fight it, fight the weaknesses in your heart, and then Malik's influence on you will disappear, and you will be able to win this dark game."

"No matter when or where you are, never give up the light of hope. Through this, you will surely be able to get back those lost memories later."

Conveying the last words to Peacock Wu, You Ling felt that the time she could stay here had reached the upper limit. She used her last bit of strength to help Peacock Wu dispel the shadow of Dark Malik lurking deep in her heart.

With You Ling's intervention, Peacock Wu took this opportunity to find a breakthrough point, and her heart was gradually enveloped in a warm light.

Seeing that his plan failed, Dark Malik's consciousness was blasted away from the inner space of Peacock Dance by You Ling. At the end of his disappearance, he cast a malicious look at You Ling: "... Gu ! Damn Er Wu! You actually used the power of a thousand-year artifact to intervene in our duel! Remember this! You Ling! I will definitely make you, the bastard who hindered me, pay a painful price!"

"Huh... Really? Then let me look forward to your so-called price."

He didn't pay any attention to An Malik's threatening words. The moment before he disappeared, You Ling, who was holding a beautiful woman in his arms, gently patted Peacock Wu on the back to comfort her, and at the same time, he threw himself at his former boss. A look of ridicule: "The premise is that you must win this duel first!"

……

"How? Is it over?"

When You Ling's consciousness returned to his body, he instinctively opened his eyes. At the same time, everyone noticed his change and immediately took the initiative to come over and asked You Ling concerned questions.

In fact, after noticing that You Ling had returned normally, they already had the corresponding answer in their minds.

"Well, the factors on Malik's side have been resolved."

Glancing at the figure of the black-haired royal sister Isis who was holding her body to prevent her from falling, You Ling put away the Millennium Key again, patted the back of Isis's hand, and gave her a comforting look. After that, he immediately gave an "OK" gesture to everyone who was eager for an accurate answer: "Next, it depends on Wu Wu's determination."

At the same time as You Ling's words fell, Peacock Wu on the field also stood up suddenly at this moment.

Looking at You Ling, who was surrounded by people, her eyes returned to the clear peacock dance. Thinking back to the little girl's posture shown by her fragile self in her inner world just now, her face couldn't help but A slight blush appeared.

However, as a qualified duelist, facing a powerful opponent, Peacock Wu temporarily buried the emotion in her heart deep in her heart...
