【Mr. Phoenix, LP 0】

…I lost.

Although there was a glimmer of hope for a while in the middle, in the end, he lost as expected.

Mr. Phoenix smiled wryly and sighed.

The Duel King deserved to be the Duel King, not everyone could win casually. Although the result seemed to be no different from what was expected in advance, there would still be some regrets of the defeat.

And seeing his father’s defeat, my son will be very depressed, right?

However, Mr. Phoenix saw that little Aster was running to Yuei Vu’s side right now, his eyes were shining brightly: “Wow! The hero just now is so handsome! Can I have a look?”

He completely ignored his father who was beaten up… Of course, he didn’t seem to be depressed at all.

Even the words “Favorability + 1, + 1, + 1” kept popping up on his little head…

“Sure.”

“Wildedge…too strong!” Little Aster was full of admiration, “And Brother Yuei Vu is also very strong, much stronger than Dad!”

Mr. Phoenix: “…”

Cough cough, forget it, it doesn’t matter, as long as my son is happy…

After playing cards, the three of them sat in an open-air cafe, ate some sweets and drank some coffee, chatted casually for a while, and immediately became acquainted.

As the saying goes “the strongest relationship between men is nothing more than carrying guns together and going through windows together”.

However, it was even easier for duelists. As long as they played cards together, they were all half-brothers.

After a short chat, Mr. Phoenix took his son and got up to leave.

At the same time, he revealed that his boss, Mr. Pegasus, was also arranging his schedule these days, planning to make a special trip to meet Yuei Vu one day when he had free time.

Among the two contemporary Duel Kings, Yugi Muto has fought against Pegasus a long time ago, and the two were already familiar with each other.

However, Yuei Vu has never met the father of Dueling Monsters. According to Mr. Phoenix, President Pegasus seemed to be looking forward to this meeting.

Before leaving, Little Aster seemed quite reluctant to part with him. When his father took his hand and left, he turned his head every step of the way, as if it was very difficult to separate from his idol, as if he would cry if he didn’t agree with him.

So Mr. Phoenix joked to his son: “If you want to stay with Brother Yuei Vu so much, how about I give you to him? You follow Brother Yuei Vu home, and Dad goes back by himself. Do you think it will work?”

“What?”

Little Aster was a little confused.

This may be the biggest and most difficult decision Little Aster has ever encountered in his life (although it hasn’t been long in total), thus the child was very worried.

Little Aster looked blankly at his father, then at Brother Yuei Vu, struggled for a long time, finally bit his lip, and seemed to have finally made a very difficult decision.

After all, he was a man who would become a hero in the future, and a hero must be able to make difficult choices.

Aster turned his head and gave Dad a hug.

Mr. Phoenix smiled with some relief, and patted his son’s head: “My son…”

Then after hugging, Little Aster turned around and ran to Yuei Vu’s side: “Then I… I’ll go with Brother Yuei Vu…”

Yuei Vu: “…”

Mr. Phoenix: “…”

Of course, Yuei Vu couldn’t just abduct other people’s baby like this. Even if it was said that “training tool people should be started from childhood”, it was a bit arrogant to do so for real…

No one took Little Aster’s reaction seriously. After all, children didn’t understand anything.

From the perspective of a child, he may simply want to stay with his idol now, and then he could go back to his father when he got tired and regretted…

Before being taken away by his father, Little Aster finally shouted to Yuei Vu seriously: “Brother Yuei Vu! I will use the HERO deck designed by my father in the future, and I will definitely become a duelist as strong as you!”

“Really? Then come on.” Yuei Vu smiled gently, “I believe that Aster will definitely be able to do it… No, you will definitely be a stronger duelist than me!”

Little Aster looked delighted and nodded vigorously: “Thank you, Brother Yuei Vu!”

Mr. Phoenix also smiled and nodded to Yuei Vu to express his gratitude, and then led his son away.

Yuei Vu looked at the disappearing back of the father and son, with a smile on his face, but he was actually thinking in his heart——

——Kid, being a hero is not as easy to be as you think!

A so-called hero is not only always alone and cannot find friends, but also…

…and often always hungry!

Speaking of this, Yuei Vu couldn’t help but think of the World Link Online in his previous life, which was updated to the most popular version of the HERO deck. A large group of players prepared a whole box of banknotes and sharpened their knives one by one to start the game. It was said that some exaggerated buddies even sold their houses, but in the end they still didn’t even touch the shadow of Elemental HERO Stratos…

At that time, the forum was really full of wailing. From top to bottom, it was full of blood and tears from the sinking players…

…and occasionally, one player who relied on the rewarded crystal to open a pack ten times in a row, getting a Sky Hero, then was attacked by countless players until not even his bones were left.

At that time, the most common words in the forum were——

——I’m so hungry, if I knew it, I wouldn’t be a hero……

…

Having met Uncle Itou Shin’s friend, before Yuei Vu returned to the store, he decided to drop by the Nightcrawler World to have a look.

After he won the Battle City competition, many people from the association also congratulated him. President Kawasawa Gai’s head became so hot that he wrote him a seven-figure check as a reward that day.

President Gai said that although the ability of the association was limited, some of the performances should be given. Yuei Vu must accept this money! (Of course, he didn’t intend to refuse it at all)

In the past few days, there have been quite a few people in the world trying to find Yuei Vu to establish a relationship, and they were all blocked by the association.

President Gai was busy helping him socialize everywhere these days. He drank wine one after another and went to WC a few times per party.

Anyway, Manager Shouei said that the president has lost a lot of weight, and he looked malnourished with dark circles under his eyes all day long, but he still enjoyed showing off at one party after another. If this continued, he might die suddenly…

After winning the title of Duel King, Yuei Vu has never been to the headquarters. He felt that at least he had to take some time to express his gratitude to everyone in the association for their care and support.

It was still a dark alley, and in a dead end where the lights couldn’t reach, the gatekeeper was still the burly man who once stopped Yuei Vu with a fierce look.

But this time, when the strong man saw Yuei Vu, his eyes lit up immediately, and he hurried up: “Yuei… sir! Are you here to…?”

Yuei Vu smiled: “Well, I happened to be passing by, so come and have a look today.”

“Please come in quickly! You haven’t come these days. Everyone has been talking about you recently!”

While talking, the gatekeeper opened the rusty iron gate, which was used to hide people’s eyes, and led Yuei Vu in.

“It’s just the right time for you to come now. There are lively activities being held in the stronghold. You will definitely be interested.”

“Oh? What event?” Yuei Vu asked, “A duel competition?”

“No, it is…here it is, you can see for yourself.”

At the end of the stairway, the strong man pushed open the door, and suddenly appeared behind the door…

…A group of muscular men with red faces and veins popping out, singing and dancing one by one.

Yuei Vu: “…”

The air was scorching and hot, and it felt like hell in a certain sense. And what appeared in front of him at this moment was a group of demons dancing wildly…
