Born in Another World Yu-Gi-Oh

You Xing opened his eyes and found himself alone, standing alone in the boundless darkness.There are dots of fluorescent light floating around, illuminating the infinite space a bit, but still unable to illuminate any substance.In this wondrous cosmic burial place, there is neither direction nor discernible vision, perhaps not even the passage of time.

"Qiu, Yuma!" Yu Xing called, but there was no response, not even an echo.

You Xing took a deep breath, trying to calm down.In fact, this is the risk they have to take: although the technology he has mastered can bring all three of them into the world of Astrol, there is no known power that can help them in a dead world made of energy and memory. Recognize the opposite direction and position in the world.Even Yu Xing, who can foresee everything, has to admit that he has no way to deal with this dead world.After entering the world of Astrol, they can only take one step at a time.It's just that Yu Xing didn't expect (although maybe he should) that he would appear here alone.In fact, there was never any guarantee that the three of them could teleport to the same location, but Yu Xing didn't think much about this issue.He couldn't bring himself to think about separation, so now he felt even more helpless.He took another deep breath, and then stepped forward.There is nothing else that can be done.

Before walking a few steps, a dragon roar suddenly broke the deathly silence.

"【Stardust】!" You Xing called out.

There was another long howl, and then he heard the sound of sails fluttering in the wind, and then a giant dragon landed in front of him.The long, snake-like neck bent down, and a pair of golden glasses approached him, looking at him motionlessly.

"You're not [Stardust], are you?" You Xing whispered uncertainly, "You should be... [Xingying], right? You look the same as my [Stardust], but you still can't Acknowledge your mistake."

The dragon opened its mouth, showing two rows of sharp teeth.It seems to be laughing.You Xing suddenly felt a chill down his back.There was something wrong with the dragon in front of him; instead of giving him the feeling of an ally, the dragon exuded coldness and hostility.Why?The last time I came to this place [Xingying] was like my closest friend.What happened?The giant dragon shouted again, interrupting his thoughts. [Xingyinglong] raised its paw and pointed forward.

You Xing is in need of a guide.So despite the uneasiness in his heart, he hurriedly replied, "Please lead the way, [Xingying], and help me find all of them."

You Xing didn't know how long he walked behind 【Xingyinglong】.Half an hour, maybe an hour?It is also difficult to estimate the passage of time in this empty world.I don't know how long he walked, and finally a light appeared in front of him.The light comes from rows of rectangles, like a wall of mirrors, floating in mid-air, quietly emitting silver-white light.Behind this mirror wall, a huge mechanical body can be vaguely seen, just like the last time I saw it.

"Asterol!" Yu Xing shouted, "Are you here? Come out, let's go home together, Astorol!"

There was no answer, only [Xingyinglong] roared.Then without warning, the night-colored dragon suddenly flew towards the wall made of mirrors.The dragon disappeared into one of the mirrors, leaving only a wave of silver-white mirror surface, like the surface of water disturbed by stones.A uniquely designed number "4" appeared on the mirror, but quickly disappeared again.You Xing looked at the mirror suspiciously, still puzzled, but also had a premonition that he was about to see the terrifying reality unfold.

The wall of mirrors grew brighter.Images began to appear in the silver-white light curtains, all of which were familiar and heart-wrenching scenes.What appeared first was the city skyline, the building of the Seahorse Corporation, and the Daedalus Bridge, which was so beautiful that it took one's breath away.Immediately afterwards, the arc-shaped cradle, the rainbow bridge, Bruno's last smile; ZONE appeared, sulfur and fire rain, Qiu Wang opened her arms to the destruction falling from the sky... You Xing wanted to turn his head away, but he didn't know why Can't look away.

This is the truth that connects all the stories, he sighs silently.Perhaps he'd known all along; these possibilities for the world of Astral had also crossed his mind now and then for the past two months.But he's been too busy dealing with one crisis after another, running between hope and despair, to take all of his speculations seriously.And so now, when all the undeniable truths awaited him, almost ironically, he felt unprepared.

In the midst of chaos and pain, You Xing suddenly heard a laugh.

"Welcome to my world, Fudo Yuxing," Astral walked through the mirror wall and came to him, the face that was always peaceful in another world was now full of malice and darkness, "Did you see that, The truth of all this, Fudo Yusei? Now you know what the Numbers card is, and where is this place, Yusei?"

"Numbers is a remnant of the universe," Yuxing replied in a low voice, "corresponding to the parallel universe of my world. There ZONE won, and everything I knew was destroyed. This is your world, Astor Lore, a cemetery full of bones."

"Yes, Yusei, my world is a tomb," Astral laughed inexplicably, "When ZONE defeated you and erased the perpetual motion machine from the timeline, he created an ultimate paradox ——If there is no history of perpetual motion machine navigation, where will there be ZONE, and where will there be a story of erasing perpetual motion machines? This is almost exactly the same as the murder of one’s own grandfather in the theory. In that time-space continuity is broken, The material world collapses in an instant. Of course, this will not be the end. After all, there have been so much energy and so many thoughtful beings. Even if the essence of the entire universe dissipates, there will still be energy and memory left. So we became Numbers, and every day A card is a piece of memory, a piece of proof that it once existed. But we are still a little stronger than bones. A huge energy storage in the cracks of the universe is still very dangerous, isn't it? Maybe the energy will be broken if you are not careful. It burst out of the embankment and submerged the living world like a flood. Did Fika think about this problem when she came to explore my world to find energy?"

"What do you mean?" You Xing suddenly became alert and asked, "What do you want?"

"What do I want? What do I want?" Astral repeated Yusei's question twice before laughing out loud.

"What do I want?" he said, "revenge and destruction, what a simple thing! Our existence disappears into paradox, but there is no peace even after death. Those fools who don't know how to respect the dead, since they If you dare to come to a tomb to find the energy to support life, then I will give them as much energy as you want, energy that can destroy their world. It is their greed that awakened my consciousness and let me destroy it with my own hands They are reasonable, right, Yu Xing?"

You Xing frowned, with a serious expression as if he was ready for the moment when he drew his sword. "It's ridiculous, Astral," he said, "the world of Fika has nothing to do with you! How can you blame the whole world for Fica's despicable behavior? What can destruction do? You The world will not be resurrected."

"Are you always so rational, Yusung?" Astral said with a smile, "What defense do you need for revenge? What reason do you need for anger? You asked me what I want, I just want to be satisfied —the satisfaction of destruction."

For a moment Yu Xing was speechless.He was not good at long speeches, but standing here now, hearing Astrol's anger and resentment, such instinctive feelings, he didn't even know what rational arguments could come in handy.After a pause, he asked, "Asterol, who the hell are you? Why did you appear in this place?"——If you know who Astorol is, you may be able to be moved.

Astral laughed again.At first the laughter was just uncomfortable, but gradually Astral's voice became deeper and more powerful, with a familiar tone, so familiar that Yu Xing finally understood the fear.Standing in front of Yuxing, Jack Atlas was dressed in a snow-white racing suit, and his blond hair shone like the sun.

"I thought you couldn't remember to ask, Yusung," said the 'Jack', "I already told you, didn't I? I am the embodiment of that dead world. To make this answer more meaningful, it should Saying this, I am all that you know and that you love. I could be Jack Atlas, or your loyal friend Crowe."—and so appeared the diminutive and feisty Black Feather Duelist, With the same confident smile as always - "Or Bruno, the one who gave everything for you. Even your beloved wife."

When the existence in front of him turned into Qiu's appearance, with fluttering long hair and twinkling eyes, You Xing had to take a few steps back.He raised his hand to hold his chest, only because the pain in his chest made him almost breathless.In the drowsiness under the severe pain, "Revenge" suddenly sounds a little sweet.

"More importantly, I am you, Yu Xing."

Yu Xing looked up at his own reflection.A pair of sapphire blue eyes stared back, as sharp as a blade and as cold as steel.

"I, Fudo Yuxing, is the brightest existence in that world, the last clear memory when everything else fades away and dies," Yuxing heard his own voice read, "I should be the savior, shouldn't I? But I couldn't succeed at the last moment. So I became the last survivor, and revenge and destruction became my mission. Do you remember? The despair at the moment when your basic points dropped to zero in the final battle, when The pain of the moment the arc cradle crashed into the city, and the utter abandonment of the moment when Qiu died in front of you—you must remember. Even if you won, so what? In your timeline you really It succeeded, but the failure in the parallel world stole your wife for 13 years."

Yusei's reflection stretched out a hand. "Look at me, Yu Xing, take a good look at everything in your heart. You must understand the desire for revenge and destruction. There are so many world lines and so many possibilities in this multiverse, which one is right for me? Show mercy? All I have is loss, loss, loss, nothing to keep. Those happy people, who has shared the pain for me? Even after death, there is no peace, and there are still people who continue to seek I ask for it. Is there any harm in venting? Come, Yu Xing."

Yuxing slowly stretched out his hand.His eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of dust, dim and unable to see.The moment the two Yusei held hands, the surroundings suddenly darkened.

Yu Xing, who used to be Astrol, chuckled and said, "Let's go, Yu Xing; go and complete our revenge."

Invisible ripples appeared in the empty darkness around them, as if they were going to swallow the last few rays of light.

"Do not."

You Xing raised his chin, a pair of royal blue glasses lit up again, as clear as a morning star in the dawn.

"I'm not you," You Xing said softly, "I won the final duel with ZONE, Astral. I tried to understand your perspective, but I can't imagine any pain, no matter how unbearable, could be destruction You are not the embodiment of vengeance, Astral. You have become a separate being with a mind of your own, and you don't need to carry this dead world with you. Maybe the memory is still painful, but this pain shows You are still alive, you shouldn't be locked in this tomb. Besides, didn't you create new memories? What were the days with Yuma to you? Are you going to destroy Yuma as well? I came here because I promised Yuma that I would help him find you, so now I will help you find Yuma too. You should live well, Astral."

"Live well?" The undead in the dead world laughed loudly, "It's too late, don't move You Xing."

Then the darkness swallowed them both.
