Pharaoh

"Game, I only recognize you for the final duel."

"The gate of Hades will send the loser to death."

"Pharaohs are invincible."

"As a family of tomb guards, I will never allow people in this world to die because of it."

"So, the duelist can only be you."

"What I want is not you as a duelist, but you as a 'partner' to duel with the pharaoh."

"Only you can send the pharaoh to the gate of the underworld."

Under the glare of the sun, in the wind and sand blowing in the desert, the woman gave him such a reason.

Anyway, I just want to force the other me to release water.

he thought dully during the duel.

The young king who was dueling with him on the opposite side was obviously letting the water go without limit, what kind of unattainable battle, what kind of fierce battle where you come and go... That's just the view in the eyes of others.

He who is in the middle of the battle knows better than anyone else that his other self is letting his attack tactics take shape time and time again without any hindrance.

From the beginning to the end, he didn't kill him.

"He will send all duelists except you to the gate of the underworld without hesitation."

Isis's words swirled in his mind again.

"To stay by your side."

──I want to be with you forever, even if I can’t get my memory back──

Fool.

He thought, his nose suddenly felt a little sore.

In fact, he didn't want him to go either.

It is impossible to let go of such a long-term relationship.

So if you want to let the other self stay, you just need to find someone to fight with him, right?

No.

Because the one who duels will die.

It is precisely because he is the person closest to his other self that he knows better than anyone else.

Perhaps under the influence of him and others, there have been some changes. The other one is still a high-ranking pharaoh in his bones. When it comes to his own interests, he will definitely take the lives of others without hesitation.

Treating human life as nothing, this is the ancient Pharaoh.

But he can't.

The education he received since he was a child is that human life is more important than anything else.

He agreed to Isis's request to fight another self because he agreed with the reasons Isis said.

People in this world live in this time and space. They have relatives, friends, and many ties that cannot be let go. Their every move in this world involves many things.

Yatum is different. He is an ancient undead and does not belong to this world.

It is the law of the world that the soul of the ancient pharaoh should return to where he should go.

"Game, I believe you will make the right choice."

The woman from the tomb guard family smiled at him, "You are stronger than anyone else."

"Maybe it looks weak, but I can see it clearly."

"Along the way, no matter how painful the battle is, everyone gives up—even when a powerful Pharaoh gives up for a while, only you persevere unswervingly."

"You have been standing behind everyone, watching everything more calmly than anyone else."

"You have always been by our side, leading us forward with your tenacity."

"So this time too, please use your calmness and strength to send the pharaoh back to death."

Whether it's him, Kyoko, Jouchi, or maybe Kaiba, they will definitely be sad for a while because of Atum's disappearance.

He was sure of it.

But the future will dilute everything.

They grow up and grow old, scars always heal and memories always fade.

Maybe many years later, they will no longer remember everything now.

Even if you were sad to despair, you can forget it after crying.

Humans are such powerful beings.

the last moment

He raised his hand and opened the gold box.

The resurrection of the dead rises in the sky.

He glanced at the opposite side, and the young king who had the same appearance as him was smiling softly at him.

From the first time I saw her to the present, the softness in the smiling eyes has never changed.

Even facing himself as an enemy at this moment, there has been no change in the slightest.

He raised his hand, and the silent magician attacked.

Boy King's LP is zero.

He fell to his knees, unable to control his tears.

From the beginning you knew that I was sealing this card, and from the beginning you intended to use this card at the end.

For me to win.

"Partner, you have surpassed me."

fraud.

"Goodbye, buddy."

big liar.

you and me

How is it possible to see you again.
