Chapter 683: I Won't Be Prana Anymore!
Night falls. Aigami stood on the top floor of an empty building, overlooking this duel city with an increasingly technological sense, with a complicated expression.
Prana's power could be influenced by the mind. Thanks to these special abilities, most of the injuries suffered by Aigami in the duel with the Supreme King yesterday have been healed.
But at this time his mood had changed.
Originally, when he stood up as a representative of Prana, his whole ego was extremely inflated. He had extremely high confidence in his own strength and felt that Yugi was just a Duel King in name, and beating up Kaiba was just a piece of cake.
But after repeated defeats and defeats, even the most arrogant person would be hit to some extent.
This was also the question that Aigami was thinking about now.
Master Shadi said that I have extraordinary talents, the kind that just one of ten thousand has. Isn't he actually trying to comfort me?
Maybe my dueling skills are actually not so good?!
And what's the situation with that kid? What is the spirit from another world next to him?
He was confident before and felt that even if he faced Duel King Yuei Vu, he would have a good chance of winning by taking advantage of the rules of Dimension Duel and the strength of the Cubic deck.
Who would have thought that before he bumped into Yuei Vu, he couldn't even beat his young apprentice?!
Aigami was now deflated and a little cracked. It was as if his inflated confidence had been violently penetrated head-on, leaving a huge gaping hole in his heart.
There were some things that after being broken, there was no way to restore them to their original state.
Fortunately, although he didn't win the duel, he secretly swapped a piece of the Millennium Puzzle in Kaiba's hand in the underground temple.
Lord Shadi said that the Millennium Puzzle has the highest status among the Millennium Items, symbolizing the authority and status of the Pharaoh. Only the chosen ones could assemble the Millennium Puzzles, and even then it would take many years.
Aigami has already seen Kaiba Seto's science and technology that are even more metaphysical than metaphysics. He has no doubt that Kaiba can use his own black technology to speed up the process of putting together the puzzle.
But no matter how awesome his Kaiba's black technology is, it will still take at least ten and a half months to put together the Millennium Puzzle, right?
Aigami exhausted his brain and tried to think of exaggerated aspects, but he also felt that it should not be possible to go faster. There's no way he, Kaiba, can put the Millennium Puzzle together in one day, right?
If he can, I'll eat the Quantum Cube in my hand on the spot.
Since Atem left this world, Prana has been preparing for the dimensional ascension for a whole year. Now that that time was finally coming, of course, it was impossible to let Kaiba ruin their goal.
To be safe, Aigami did not keep all the Millennium Puzzle fragments in his own hands but gave one of them to his sister Sera. In this way, even if he accidentally fell into Kaiba's hands, Kaiba would not be able to get the last fragment from him.
As steady as an old dog!
However, if Aigami knew that after he gave the fragment to his sister, his sister turned around and handed the fragment to Muto Yugi
"Diva." A gloomy voice sounded from behind Aigami, "What are you doing?"
In fact, Aigami was not his real name. His name was actually Diva. It was very easy to think of a cute girl who sang and played games and occasionally drove a mecha to fight monsters.
Aigami turned around and saw his good brother Mani behind him.
Mani was his closest friend among all Prana's companions besides his sister Sera and one of the people he trusted most.
"I'm thinking about my next move."
"Thinking?" Mani whispered, "We don't have much time."
"I know. But Seto Kaiba is not a person who gives up easily and cannot be easily persuaded."
"Maybe you are too indecisive, Diva." Mani interrupted, "Maybe there are some things that someone should have made up their minds about long ago. You should have killed Seto Kaiba a long time ago!"
This decision may be a bit extreme, but it may indeed be the last option they face now. After all, there was not much time left before the dimensional door opened. Perhaps drastic measures were indeed the best solution to the problem.
It's not that Aigami didn't agree with this decision, but the problem now was
He couldn't beat Kaiba!
That damned Kaiba could draw cards from the floor! The one who is so cute when he draws is Zhang Jushenbing!
Who can beat this guy?!
"In addition, there is the host of the great evil god, the one who personally killed Lord Shadi." Mani said solemnly, "You haven't sought revenge from him yet, have you?"
Shadi, who was equivalent to an adoptive father and mentor to these orphans, died in front of all of them five years ago and has existed in the form of a soul ever since.
And the murderer was none other than Bakura, or to be more precise, Bakura who was possessed by the great evil god Zorc.
Although technically the murderer was Zorc, after all, he borrowed the hand of Tapi Liang to kill him. This scene cast a huge shadow on the young Aigami and other Prana companions. Aigami has not given up the idea of revenge to this day.
But Mani never shared the same view.
Mani was not as impulsive as Aigami, nor was he as easily drawn into the vortex of hatred. It wasn't like what he would normally say.
There's something wrong with him.
"Mani? What's wrong with you?"
Only then did Aigami notice that his companion was abnormal. He found that Mani's face was as gloomy as dripping water, and there was an unknown darkness in his eyes. Looking at him was like staring into the abyss or being stared into by the abyss.
As a companion who had grown up together, Aigami had never felt that Mani was as strange as he was now.
Their Prana consciousnesses were highly synchronized, and they could sense each other's existence even if they were far apart.
But now he couldn't feel Mani's consciousness. Staring at the other person and listening to those heavy and muddy words, he only felt darkness.
"Your successive setbacks and repeated defeats have made me realize one thing, Diva." Mani said, "That is, Prana also has its limits."
"What do you want to say, Mani?"
Mani laughed ferociously: "I won't be Prana anymore, Diva!"
He suddenly raised his arm and made a grabbing motion with his right hand. Countless pitch-black particles converged towards his hand, transforming into a shining golden alchemy ring.
Millennium Ring!
Aigami's expression suddenly changed: "Impossible! This thing"
"I found it, Diva! It's in the temple where you dueled with Kaiba!" Mani's voice was hoarse and twisted, "It showed me new possibilities, ways to transcend limits!
Now I can destroy everything, no one can stop me! "
Aigami realized that it was the deepest darkness in the Millennium Ring. The evil thoughts residing in this circle tainted Mani's consciousness, emptied his brain of anything that was originally there, and filled it with anger, hatred, lust, and everything else.
The person standing here now was no longer Mani.
This was a brand new personality that was possessed by the evil thoughts of the great evil god Zorc.
Aigami immediately activated the Quantum Cube, trying to resist the power. But before he could release his mental power, he was already hit by the dark vortex.
That was a powerful force that he had no way of counterattacking. He felt like his ribs were cracked, his body felt like he was hit by a car, his head was violently dizzy when he landed, and it felt like thousands of people were whispering in his ears.
"Mani"
He saw that his friend's body was possessed. The demon who killed their adoptive father seemed to have returned again, occupying a different host this time, and showed its fangs ferociously, as if mocking his weakness and incompetence.
There was nothing he could do.
He didn't have the power to defeat this demon, nor could he save his best friend from the darkness.
In a daze, Aigami felt as if he had gone back many years ago, losing all his extraordinary power and turning back into that helpless child, kneeling next to Master Shadi's cold body and crying.
"Disappear, Diva." Mani raised the Millennium Ring towards him and sneered, "I will complete your unfinished business and what you lack the courage to do."
But almost as soon as the words fell, Aigami saw Mani being shot away, followed by a long series of screams.
The Millennium Ring was struck from Mani's hand and flew far into the air, making a series of metal collision sounds in the air.
Then it fell steadily into the hands of Yuei Vu on the side.
Yuei Vu raised his hand and held the Millennium Ring: "Tell me, why are you so capable of causing trouble even after death?"
