Chapter 778: Invited to the City
Overlord.
Hearing the name again, Judai was silent for a while, as if thinking.
But he quickly raised his head again and laughed heartily.
"It's okay now."
"But you said that he is already in your body now, and you two are of the same mind." You Xuan leaned back and sank into the sofa, holding the teacup that Alice had just handed over in his hand. .
"So we have to consider the possibility of him losing control, right?" You Xuan paused and added, "Or maybe even if it can maintain stability normally, there is still a risk of losing control under certain circumstances, right?"
"You mean, what if one day all my friends suddenly turned against me, or worse, someone might die because of me?"
Judai looked serious.
You Xuan said nothing and looked at him seriously.
This weird stare lasted for a few seconds, and then Judai burst into laughter.
"That's too much, right?"
But You Xuan didn't laugh.
"Wait, are you serious?" Judai raised his eyebrows.
"We just have to consider this possibility." You Xuan said, "We are facing an overlord who once ruled twelve dimensions. You have faced him personally, and you should know how dangerous he is."
"I know, but...how to say it?"
Judai scratched his head and thought for a while. However, he then showed his signature smile, and then gave a thumbs up to You Xuan.
"Anyway, it's no problem. I promise, he won't be a problem anymore."
Yu Xuan looked at him for a moment, and Judai maintained this posture.
Until You Xuan shrugged.
"Okay, if that's what you insist on."
This was originally his plan.
Dazi said back then that the darkness in people's hearts cannot be eradicated. At that time, Rafiru of the Three Musketeers of Doma thought that he had eliminated the darkness in his heart, and even the barrier of Oriha Gang that had been activated disappeared without draining his soul.
As a result, when he faced Dazi again later, Dazi stirred up Rafiru's anger again with just a few words, and the barrier that should have disappeared also returned along with the inner darkness of Rafiru that should have been eliminated.
The Overlord is the darkness in Judai's heart, and for the same reason it cannot be truly eliminated - unless Judai is killed as well.
Therefore, the best solution for Judai is also a lesson that many powerful duelists have to learn, which is to learn to look directly at the darkest part of themselves and coexist with it.
In fact, Yu Gen believes that although Judai was able to mobilize the Overlord's power when he got serious in the later stages of the anime, he prefers to believe that the Twenties only absorbed part of the Overlord, or at least could not fully mobilize that power.
But now the ten generations have this opportunity.
"Speaking of which, Mr. Jonouchi left the island today." Judai said.
He and Jonouchi have similar temperaments, and they are getting along quite well these days.
"He left?" You Xuan asked.
However, Jonouchi stayed behind in the first place just to open up wasteland with them in another dimension. Now that the matter is done, it doesn't seem strange that the person has left.
"Yeah. But he told me that he just went out to do it beforehand, and he would come back later to hold a celebration party to celebrate that we have cleared all the twelve-dimensional dungeons."
Judai tilted his head and thought about it.
"He seemed to say that President Bekas wanted to see him for something."
"Becas, are you looking for Mr. Jonouchi?" Yu Xuan felt a little strange.
Did these two people still have contact after the Duel Kingdom?
In fact, it's not just You Xuan who feels this way. At this moment, the person involved was also thinking the same thing.
Taking the International Fantasy Club's special plane, they flew directly to the island where the Duel Kingdom was held. Jonouchi Katsuya got off the plane and looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar island in front of him, and he couldn't help but feel filled with emotion.
This was his starting point as a duelist, a place with special meaning to him.
When he landed on this island, he was still a little-known duelist. At that time, he didn't even fully understand the rules of playing cards. His best result before was the top eight in the town duel. On the poker field, there will be an own goal from time to time.
It was on this island that he truly transformed into a duelist, and for the first time he felt that he was following the back of his best friend Yugi Muto.
Things are different now. Yugi has long gone abroad to travel around, and this island is no longer the duel kingdom it used to be. All the competitive facilities in the past have been demolished. It is basically a nursing home for the semi-retired President Bekas.
But he also felt strange in his heart. If Yugi, who became the nominal largest shareholder of the International Fantasy Society after winning the Duel Kingdom, and Kaiba, who is the main partner of the Fantasy Society, both of them have been in contact with Becas over the years, then he has really been in contact since I haven’t had much contact with Becas since I left the Duel Kingdom.
So it was really strange that Becas would ask such a person to come to his retirement island for an interview.
"Boy in the city, welcome."

When they arrived at the castle, President Bekas came out to greet them personally, waving his hand to indicate to his subordinates to give them some private space.
"Becas, long time no see."
Jonouchi stepped forward carelessly and waved hello.
"I haven't seen you for so many years, but your accent is still so interesting, haha."
Bekas smiled gracefully, but he wasn't annoyed at all: "We haven't seen each other for so many years, and Jonouchi Boy hasn't changed at all."
Since he accepted the invitation, Jonouchi did not hesitate to sit down at the table, picked up the dessert and tea on the table and started eating.
He commented while eating.
"Hmm, this tastes very good."
"Oh, this coffee is also great. Your retirement life is quite comfortable, Bekas, so enviable."
Bekas just watched him eat, crossed his legs and watched without joining in, smiling and said: "Retirement life? It would be great if I could really retire leisurely like this."
"Hmm?"
Jonouchi looked up in confusion.
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"
"That's exactly why I invited you here, Jonouchi boy." Bekas straightened up and said seriously, "Have you heard about it?
The frontier astronomical unit that cooperates with our International Fantasy Club has observed light fluctuations from cosmic white holes with the potential to destroy the world. We and the Kaiba Group have been paying close attention to the possible impact of that evil fluctuation on the earth."
Jounouchi nodded: "I don't know much, but I have heard a little about it. What's wrong?"
"Recently, the frontier astronomical unit has made new discoveries." Bekas said seriously, "It's not just the light fluctuations that may pose a threat to our world.
The dark force that is opposed to that force and is temporarily called "cosmic darkness" by us may also have the possibility of engulfing our world in darkness.
And Jonouchi boy, according to our observations, you..."
Bekas paused and squinted at him.
".It is very likely that you have had close contact with an important source of the "cosmic darkness."
