Chương 575: Chapter 575: If You Don’t Disdain Us
Night at Duel Academy, in a forest clearing.
"You sure about this?" Kira asked.
"Of course."
The burly man clenched his teeth and nodded hard.
It was Don Zaloog. He wore a loose coat and sunglasses, seemingly to hide his conspicuous Eye of Horus. Duel disk on his arm, stance set opposite Kira, he looked like a man facing death.
"My men trust me, entrusting their lives to me—I can't betray that trust."
Zaloog barked.
"I must become stronger—only then can I bear the duty of a leader!"
"Boss!"
The Dark Scorpion cheer squad was moved to tears.
For our sake, boss will suffer a prison-duel against this devil of a duelist…
Truly touching.
"Okay, if you insist—"
Kira smiled and raised his duel disk.
…
A few minutes later…
"Spell—Dark Scorpion - Tragedy of Love. If Zaloog and Meanae exist on my field together: send Meanae to the GY and destroy all monsters your opponent controls." 1
"Then I discard a card to equip Zaloog with Twin Swords of Flashing Light - Tryce. Equipped monster loses 500 ATK but can attack twice per Battle Phase. 1
Zaloog, two direct hits."
"And Zaloog's effect: when it inflicts battle damage, your opponent discards a random card. So discard two."
"…"
"Trap—Drop Off. The card you just drew in your Draw Phase—discard it. Go on, pitch it." 1
Zaloog: "…"
Lost.
And lost to himself… literally.
Zaloog tilted toward rage.
Shoot once and force the opponent to discard? What the hell!?
Couple that with all the confiscate, Drop Off… after a combo or two, he'd barely even played when his hand was already gone.
How was he supposed to duel? With what cards?
What disgusting—
Oh. The disgusting one is… me.
Never mind, then.
Zaloog doubted life.
Why had he never realized how vile his own effects were?
"How about it?"
Kira smiled at the zeroed Life Points Zaloog.
The man was tough—he sprang up instantly, resolute.
"Again!" 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺
"Okay."
They shuffled up and started another duel.
…
Only minutes later.
"Continuous Trap—Call of the Haunted. Revive 'Dark Scorpion - Chick the Yellow.' Chick, direct attack." 1
"When Chick inflicts battle damage, return one card on the field to the hand. Bounce Call of the Haunted. Since it left the field, Chick is destroyed." 1
"Effect of Makyura the Destructor—this turn I can activate Traps from my hand. So I activate Call of the Haunted again, revive Chick, and direct attack." 1
"Chick's effect, bounce Call…"
"…"
Sitting on the ground with LP at zero again, Zaloog turned his head in a daze.
Who am I? Where am I? Who killed me?
He then stared blankly at Chick in the cheer squad, who was just as bewildered.
Everyone's eyes now focused on Chick.
Their looks said, "Not bad, kid. We never realized you were this sleazy."
Chick himself was utterly confused.
