Chapter 248: The Personal Opinion of Kaiba Seto Behind the Scenes

Under the scorching sun, on the marble-paved coaching field, the reserve recruits of the priesthood were practicing magic.

"Priests" are a unique talent in this country. They are able to fight and predict by borrowing magic devices made by alchemy, spells compiled, and most importantly, the power of beings called "elves" And the humans who preside over sacrificial ceremonies and other tasks...

In other words, a purely "metaphysical" existence.

However, Seto Kaiba was silently looking at the wand in his hand at this time - he didn't know what happened to him. After waking up from the hospital bed, he lost the ability to control his body and could only act like a spirit behind his back. He usually watched helplessly as a boy who looked exactly like him acted.

Seto Kaiba clearly remembered that it had been ten years since he had the spirit behind him.

————Blue Eyes White Dragon——————

Many years ago, a young boy named "Set" woke up and found that his home had been burned down and his mother died at the hands of human traffickers. He was heartbroken after the tragedy; and soon the sad young boy was rushed by the palace guards. They deceived themselves into studying in the Priest Preparatory Group.

As for the reason why Kaiba said he was deceived, it was because Kaiba watched the entire incident: Those guards assured little Seth that as long as he could study hard and improve every day in the priesthood, little Seth would be promoted. Get a raise, learn magic, become a priest, marry the princess of the royal family, and reach the pinnacle of life...

Kaiba believes that no one with any level of education in the 21st century would believe this. Mr. Priest, one of the guards opposite, is responsible for deceiving people. You are a national civil servant after all, so don’t talk like a pyramid scheme, okay?

However, the lies were mentally retarded but could not stand up to the fact that little Seth was still young and naive, and he carried the hatred of his mother and hometown being destroyed by human traffickers. After he asked those who became priests and gained the power to avenge the human traffickers, he never looked back. He followed the MLM organization...oh, not the priests.

[Fortunately, no one in this era dares to pretend to be such a national civil servant...] As the "spirit behind", Kaiba has been complaining behind Seth. At the same time, he is also paying attention to how to get out of this obviously unscientific world. The solution, [With that girl away from me, it would be really difficult to deal with such a metaphysical incident... By the way, what were she and I doing before we entered this world? 】

Behind him, Rei Kai Umaseto's head hurts whenever he thinks about this problem. It seems that a chain of flames is tying him, preventing his thoughts from going in this direction and unable to find out the reason why he is here.

Every time Kaiba tried to think about this, he would end up fainting from pain, and once he fainted, Set's life might be very long when he woke up again. Therefore, Kaiba, who wanted to know more about the world, could only give up and focus more on getting familiar with the surrounding environment.

And over the years, Kaiba has really discovered a lot of things - many things that even Set himself has not discovered.

It's a pity that for so many years, Seto Kaiba can only follow Seth as a spirit behind him. Although he doesn't feel tired, he can't do anything. The only fun seems to be left. With the help of his knowledge and insights, which are three thousand years ahead of the world, he complained about the Egyptian civilization which was still in the period of slavery.

For example, some time ago, Seth, who is a battle priest, went to the Wangli Library to check literature and materials - in this era of lack of written carriers, every book is precious and unusual. If Seth was not an outstanding member of the trainee priests, With his civilian background, he was not qualified to read or write.

Of course, behind the scenes, Reikai Masato just wanted to complain about this: no matter from which angle he looked at it, he didn't think Set would be an ordinary civilian priest.

Set's identity aside, the president originally wanted to take this opportunity to learn ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics. If you really learn it here, you will probably become the world's leading master of ancient Egyptian writing when you go out! It's a pity that the president was shocked when he saw those books - the records in those books were actually in Japanese!

Although Kaiba often complained about why the whole world spoke Japanese when he was watching movies, when he actually saw this scene, he had nothing else to say except "f*ck".

[Can you guys who are doing illusions have some snacks? 】The president vomited while reading a book: 【At least give it some authenticity, okay? 】

And with this thought, Kaiba could only put away his thoughts on learning hieroglyphics and silently read the contents in the book.

As a war priest who needed to fight, young Seth naturally read a book related to military disputes. On the rough papyrus, Kaiba read that when Seth was a child, the country had suffered a crisis that nearly destroyed the country: the Phoenicians from the west were dissatisfied with the rule of the Pharaoh and rebelled. With Xiang's technology, their army is overwhelming. Before entering the royal court of Egypt, the Pharaoh and the priests personally took action and summoned the elves who guarded the royal family to drive the Phoenician army into dust...

[This is completely bullshit, right?! ] No matter how excited Seth was, the president was stunned: not to mention that in this era when books are so precious, this book actually spent most of its space to write about the greatness of the pharaoh and the Yinxian accusing the Phoenicians, which is meaningless to the president. When he wanted to read about ancient strategies and tactics, the book actually took over the matter with a sentence "The elves went to war and were invincible"... There were only three lines of text about fighting in the middle!

Are you worthy of those soldiers and generals who fought hard to defend their country?

Looking at the young Seth who was reading with relish, the president had nothing else to say except sighing about the importance of universal education.

Although he has lived with Set here for so many years - although Set himself does not know that he has such a "background spirit" that is thousands of years ahead of his time and can be used as a template for the protagonist in other novels - he knows that there are "alchemy", "magic" and "elves" in this world, but to say that these things can destroy an entire army...

The president can only say: metaphysician, metaphysician.

At this time, he missed his metaphysical consultant, a certain witch, even more, but it was a pity that he couldn't find her in his current state of background spirit.

Seahorse Seto, who had been familiar with military books at the request of Gosaburo since he was a child, was thinking at this time: [If I can come out one day, I will write a few books in this world, talking about strategic ideas that are thousands of years ahead of this world. I am afraid that I can also become a generation of saints? ]

Seahorse was just thinking about it. After all, as a "background spirit", he has not been able to move freely for nearly ten years, and complaining has almost become his only pleasure - the president himself is worried that if he lets himself go, can he still be the president of Kaiba Group? I am afraid that he will become a complainer?

[Uh... Kaiba Group, what is it? ] The president thought for a long time before he remembered what "Kaiba Group" was. [No, I've been here for too long, I have to find a way to get out! ]

Well, in this case, the president who regarded the book as nonsense naturally did not realize what the "seven artifacts" mentioned repeatedly in the book were.

——————The blue-eyed witch——————

Just a few days after Sett finished reading the book, Sett received a notice asking him to take the official priest examination. And the president, who was the spirit behind the scenes, naturally followed him - he had no choice but to follow him.

Under the scorching sun, the priest examination officially began!

The trainee priest Sett stood confidently on the marble floor of the training ground holding the snake-headed magic wand he made himself. Facing the veteran priests who served as examiners, as well as the chief examiner this time, his predecessor, and the prophet Ms. Isis, who was rumored to be one of the strongest in the current priest group, the young trainee priest Sett was very confident, but inevitably a little nervous.

However, Kaiba was not nervous at all - it was not him who had to take the exam anyway, right? - With this "watching the excitement is not a big deal" mentality, the president recalled the "ancient memories" related to ancient Egypt with interest, and the most important one was Muto Yugi.

There is one thing in this world that Kaiba Seto can't forget, that is, Muto Yugi's other personality, which was called some pharaoh from ancient Egypt by Dazhi and Li Zheng...

[And I was sent here, is it because of the game? Or...】

The president thought so, while using his powerful memory to record everything in this world, hoping to leave here, he was also preparing some first-hand materials for future research on this ancient civilization.

Looking around, Kaiba remembered the ancient Egyptian murals in the art gallery in Tomino City, the starfish-headed pharaoh, and the young priest who rode the "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" and calmly faced the pharaoh... Could it be that the young priest was Set?

"Seth, don't look around!" Isis's voice came from the front of Set, "Calm down and prepare for the test immediately!"

"Yes, Set, you should be serious." Kaiba said casually, and then he planned to continue to look at the scenery nearby, but he didn't expect that this sentence was actually spoken by "Seth" at this time.

"Eh?"

Looking at the increasingly strange looks from the people around him, and turning his head to look at the " # " characters on Isis's forehead, Kaiba gradually realized that things were not going well...

President Kaiba lowered his head slightly, and what he saw was the marble floor, and...his own hands, Set's hands, one holding the spirit weapon and the other holding the snake-headed wand...After a slight sensation, both the spirit weapon and the snake-headed wand looked a little wet, [It seems that Set is not completely unnerved, so hurry up and start the assessment seriously, make a fool of yourself and make me happy...]

Kaiba thought to himself, but soon, Isis's angry cry made the "Set" in front of him retract this idea: "Set, are you going to take the test or not?! Are you teasing us?!"

"Eh? Me?!" For the first time in this world, President Kaiba, who had not been able to move for nearly ten years, made his own voice. He looked at Isis in front of him, as well as the priest examiners and trainee priests who were "watching the fun" around him, and realized that the person who was preparing for the priest examination was not Set, who he had been watching for so many years, but... himself...

[Damn it, this is embarrassing - let me play this kind of metaphysics? ] I didn't expect that the first time he could move in so many years was in this situation. "Set" looked at Isis in front of him with a blank face. This mature priest nodded with a face as black as charcoal...

[Why is this guy so nervous? Didn't Lord Aknadi say that he is one of the best candidates of this session? ] Isis looked at Set, who was at a loss in front of her, and shook her head in disappointment. She almost wanted to use her "Millennium Jewelry" to see what the future of this boy would be, but she held back.

After all, this is in public, and it doesn't look good to use the Millennium Jewelry directly.

"Hurry up and start. Are you ready for your magic?" Isis still wanted to test the true strength of the boy in front of her. She still trusted the chief priest Aknadi. After all, he was the one who forged this thousand-year-old artifact. His recommendation should not be wrong.

"The magic I prepared?" Kaiba's brain was still in a state of shutdown. When he heard Isis's question, he began to recall carefully: [By the way, what did Sett originally prepare? It seems to be... Oops, I can't remember! 】

Kaiba couldn't remember the "magic" that Sett prepared and the techniques he used. He only remembered that it seemed to be related to some "elves"...

Watching Isis's expression getting darker and darker, Kaiba knew that he had to take measures to end the embarrassing situation in front of him...

He looked at the spiritual weapon in his hand and the snake-headed magic wand, and raised the two things up...

"Open sesame!"

The president gave up and said the "spell"...

There was no movement. This was a failed display that could not fail again-if the sales of Kaiba Group dared to make the atmosphere so stiff when explaining the product to customers outside, Kaiba would definitely fire him.

However, now, Kaiba himself was "fired".

"..." Isis, who didn't see any movement after watching for a long time and didn't feel any magic fluctuations, shook her head-Lord Aknadi was wrong this time, "Unqualified, next one."

The president was forked down by several priests with a blank face.

"Next, Mahad!" The priest next to Isis announced the name of the next priest to take the test.
