Chapter 437 - Chapter 414: Up for a Duel?

Radiant Mirror Force!!!

With a flash of golden light from the System Card Pool, accompanied by dazzling effects that seemed to blind the eyes, a brand-new trap card that had never been touched before popped out in front of Youyu from the System Card Pool.

The system marked it as an SR!

However, looking at this new card, Youyu couldn't help but feel speechless.

Radiant Mirror Force, can only be activated when the opponent has three or more attack position monsters on the field, and declares an attack, destroying all opponent's monsters on the field.

Yes, exactly, it's the same effect as the big brother of the "Shield" deck, "Holy Shield – Mirror Force", just a lot less useful.

With "Mirror Force" in hand, Youyu obviously didn't need this card at all.

But since it appeared, it shouldn't go to waste, so might as well hang it in the store at a cheap price.

After all, "Mirror Force" is quite pricey in the store, not all players can afford it. For cost-effectiveness, maybe some casual players will want this card... right?

Many might not know. Early on in Yu-Gi-Oh! DM, Muto Yugi's famous "Holy Shield – Mirror Force" evolved into a series decks over many years.

The "Shield" deck, all evolved from the Holy Shield, its characteristic is that each card is triggered at the opponent's attack declaration.

Due to obtaining the "Holy Shield", Youyu's card pool naturally included this series of decks. He indeed drew quite a few random shields from the card pool, though most were useless, occasional ones were worth investing.

It was about dinner time, the card shop just closed. The noisy sand sculpture players mostly left, Youyu was sitting behind the counter, drawing cards and browsing the forum.

Cola Sprite, temporarily without tasks, was quietly staying nearby, stealing glances at Youyu-san dazing at the counter (actually browsing the forum).

She couldn't help but recall the scene after the KC Cup duel when Youyu-san reached out to pull her up.

—How could there be such a good-looking NPC in the world!

Sigh, if I were that counter, it would be nice.

As the saying goes, soft seats become hard seats, hard seats become sockets.

"Sorry, is anyone here?"

Pushing open the Dream Card Shop's door, peeking in was the highly recognizable starfish head, who stood out from the crowd across the street, the Duel King Muto Yugi.

"Sorry for bothering."

Following behind was Mazaki Anzu.

Chinai peeked her little head out from behind the store's shelves, her eyes fell instantly on Yugi.

That hairstyle... It really resembles it, should be the other Duel King comparable to our Youyu, Muto Yugi?

Though not familiar, Chinai had an impression, after all, it wasn't her first time seeing him.

"Yugi." Youyu stood up from behind the counter, "What brings you here today?"

"Nothing much, just happened to be passing by with Anzu, thought of you so wanted to drop by."

Anzu glanced around the store: "Not many people today, feels like it was bustling every day before..."

"Because it's closed earlier," Youyu said.

"Ah, are we bothering then...?"

"No worries." Youyu waved his hand, "It's about dinner time, how about staying for a meal together?"

"Eh? Is that okay?" Yugi felt a bit embarrassed, "It feels not quite right..."

Chinai was already tying her apron: "I'll go cook."

"I'll help out," Youyu stood up too, "More people might take more effort than usual."

Yugi scratched his head embarrassed: "Feels quite troublesome..."

Chinai's skills needed no words. Especially with her recent diligent practice and active development of new dishes, her cooking skills were improving rapidly.

Though Youyu hadn't cooked much since crossing over, mostly eating Chinai's cooked rice, his culinary skills weren't bad.

Xue Lang and Cola Sprite, although helpful, lacked cooking skills. Due to regional reasons, they were unfamiliar with the local kitchenware and dishes, thus they couldn't help much.

The two helpers watched diligently from behind, watching Youyu and Chinai work together, washing, chopping, handing each other utensils. In their minds, a word popped up—

—Old married couple.

Chinai-chan's lead female role solidified!

Cola Sprite secretly began taking screenshots ready to post on the forum.

Let those strange CP guys who stand Youyu-san shut up!

Youyu scooped a spoonful of miso soup, tasted it: "Feels slightly bland..."

"Ah, is that so?" Chinai took the spoon from him, tasted it too, "Seems like it is a bit."

Speaking of this, Chinai suddenly froze, staring at the spoon, suddenly realized something.

Youyu just tasted it with this spoon, then she drank it too, isn't this indirectly... indirectly...

Chinai froze, her face instantly flushed, her head almost steaming.

"Chinai?"

Youyu looked at her reaction, full of doubt.

What's going on?

Usually, it's just adding goodwill for no reason, why did she directly crash today?

Feels like the problem is getting worse...

"..."

"Youyu is really amazing." Anzu looked towards the kitchen, "So handsome, great at dueling, and so polite..."

(Marik-san disagrees)

"Indeed." Yugi nodded in agreement, "He's indeed a rare good person."

"Right, Yugi, if you have time later, we should learn cooking together too!"

"Sure!" Yugi smiled, "I'll also invite my other self along. If we all learn together, it'll definitely be fun!"

Speaking, he mentally asked Dark Yugi in the Millennium Pendant, "Other self, what do you think?"

"...Hmm, okay."

Though not interested in cooking, seeing AIBO so enthusiastic, the King wouldn't bring him down.

"..."

"Sorry to keep you waiting!"

Moments later, a table full of delicious dishes was served.

Just as the shop owner was out, so the dining table just had the four of them.

But if the shop owner returned, hearing they prepared such a sumptuous feast, he would surely be regretful.

Darn!

Rarely got such a good meal, and I didn't get to eat it!

Lost a billion this round!

The two guests took a few bites, immediately giving high praise for the table's meal quality.

Anzu expressed it was incredible—Youyu seemed like he could do anything well.

Even cooking tasted so good!

Though Youyu humbly said it was all Chinai's effort, he just assisted her.

Chinai's face was usually expressionless, but she lowered her head involuntarily, slightly blushing.

Being praised by the one she liked.

Feels so delightful.

A warm harmonious atmosphere surrounded the meal till the end.

Two helpers couldn't cook but were skillful in cleaning dishes. Xue Lang and Cola Sprite almost rushed to handle all subsequent work, even wanting to lick the kitchen clean.

After the meal, Yugi hesitated for a while, seemingly wanting to say something but couldn't bring it out.

But finally, he seemed to have made up his mind.

"Um... Youyu."

"What's up?"

Yugi raised his head, eyes full of seriousness.

"Though it's a bit sudden, if possible... would you duel with me? Right now, here."

Youyu: "!?"
