Chapter 15 Are You Stupid? I Can Speak Foreign Languages!
Before the verdict was announced, Set stood up again and said: "Pharaoh, please don't worry, as long as our priests are united, you will not have any enemies!"
The priests nodded one after another. For them, protecting the Pharaoh is the most important task.
"As for this assassin." After Set spoke, the high priest Aknadi said to Yugi with a calm face: "Pharaoh, today is the day you ascend the throne, it is not appropriate to be stained with blood. Please first send him to the prison for strict interrogation. Although Lord Mahad has been under a lot of pressure recently, I still don't think that a single person can bypass the supervision and enter the hall to carry out such a treasonous act of assassination. This person must have accomplices, and there are not even a few, and they should not be weak."
Yugi could only nod his head to Aknadi's opinion. He suddenly entered this memory world and started this "strongest dark game". After that, he was still confused. At this time, "NPC" should try to save as much as possible, not to mention the assassin, who is very unusual at first glance. Maybe he can get some useful information from him.
After the assassin was taken to the prison in silence, the banquet continued, as if everything in Egypt was so beautiful.
However, after hearing Set's last words, Yugi frowned...
——————Memory Destroyer——————
Afterwards, nothing happened until the banquet ended in the evening. This made Yugi suddenly feel that something was wrong - it seemed that in some unknown memory, it was normal for someone to come and cause trouble on a day like tonight.
But tonight was terribly quiet, as if this place was really as prosperous as a banquet.
After returning to his bedroom, Yugi's heart was full of doubts.
In the hall before, Kaiba had hinted at his identity to him: Kaiba deliberately said "bring destructive assassination memories to the Pharaoh" when sealing the demon in the assassin's heart. This sentence was a bit tongue-twisting and a bit unreasonable, but it allowed Kaiba to reveal his identity and allowed Kaiba and Yugi to start acting together one step earlier.
The demon in the assassin's heart was the duel monster "Memory Destroyer", three stars, demon clan. All of this just happened to correspond to what the priest Set said before sealing it, suggesting to Yugi that Set knew this information that was originally only known to the duelists three thousand years later.
[In this era, it takes a long time to research and name new spirits and demons, and the previous demon has never appeared before. ] Yugi thought while lying on the bed: [So logically, the only ones who know it is called "Memory Destroyer" are Kaiba, myself, and the "enemy" hiding somewhere unknown. 】
【But in this case, there is another possibility, that is, Set is an enemy in disguise, trying to pretend to be Kaiba to deceive my trust...】Yugi turned around and thought: 【No... this is not right: if Set is the mysterious man in disguise, then now is the most irrational time to reveal his identity - first of all, the real Kaiba can easily point him out, and...】
Another reason is a bit self-boasting: Yugi can temporarily confirm that he is still the most powerful fighting force in this world of memory, although he is sure that the mysterious enemy will have some way to surpass his current self in the future, otherwise the opponent will have no chance of winning this game from the beginning.
Feeling the power of the three phantom gods in the "Millennium Building Blocks", Yugi is confident that he is not afraid of any opponent if he faces them head-on now - even if the mysterious man's acting skills are so great that Yugi mistaken him for Kaiba, this also exposes him from "NPC" to "player", from "normal" to "special", and from now on, his every move will not escape Yugi's eyes - you have to know that Yugi, as the Pharaoh and able to control the three phantom gods, has the greatest "power" in this memory world.
As for whether the mysterious man can kill Yugi head-on now? This possibility is too small - if this mysterious enemy can really defeat the priest group + the three phantom gods + the Egyptian army head-on now, then why is he still sneaking in and ambushing? Why not just come to Yugi calmly and open up his unparalleled skills?
What's more, the RPG game prepared by this mysterious man was originally intended to invite only himself, and it is hard to say whether he knew that Kaiba came uninvited, not to mention that he deployed against Kaiba from the beginning.
However, since Kaiba is really the priest Set, then what he said before is worth pondering:
["Pharaoh, please don't worry, as long as our priest group is united, you will not have any enemies!"]
Yugi remembered what Aibo had said to him on the plane before he came:
"Another me, there is a very important part in RPG games, which is to extract key information from the words of NPCs and finally find the strategy." In his inner world, when he just learned that Yami Yugi was about to face an RPG dark game, his cousin Yugi said these common sense of RPG games to Yami Yugi with a serious face, "So don't ignore those words, especially those of important NPCs!"
[I see, then, what Kaiba said just now was to let me be careful?] Yugi tossed and turned in bed and couldn't sleep, [There is a traitor in the priest group! ]
In that situation, Kaiba clearly said "You will not be afraid of any enemy" which is more in line with the scene, but he said "There will be no more enemies". Does this mean that Kaiba's words can also be understood as "When you have enemies, the priest group is no longer united?"
And now, whether there are enemies or not has been determined before the game starts!
Then Yugi can easily get a piece of information from Kaiba's words: Kaiba already knows that there is a traitor in the priest group!
When Yugi thinks of this, he can't sleep. The priest group is the closest person to the Pharaoh. If there is a traitor among them, it is a thorn in Yugi's side. But he can't doubt the members of the priest group casually, because the priest group is Yugi's strongest card besides the three mythical gods. Because a possible traitor casually suspects the priest group, it is undoubtedly self-defeating. By then, even if the mysterious enemy does not activate this undercover, the purpose of the undercover has been achieved.
"Knock, knock, knock..." At this time, the door suddenly rang - the sound was very light and short, and then a fearful voice came from behind the door: "Pharaoh, have you rested?"
This is the voice of a guard.
"No, what's wrong?" Yugi replied immediately.
"Lord Set has something urgent to find you." The guard knelt outside the door and said: "I can't persuade you, so I said I came in to report - please punish me, Pharaoh, I didn't mean to disturb your rest!"
"No, you did a good job." Yugi clenched his fist happily behind the door, [Is it finally here? ]
——————The sealed Exodia——————
Soon, when he saw Set in a priest's uniform in the reception room, Yugi quickly asked the guards to withdraw - of course, the Pharaoh's safety is so important, the guards will naturally leave a few people in the dark to take care of it at any time.
Only after all the guards in the open had withdrawn did Kaiba smile at Yugi and then said, "You are quite impressive, Pharaoh Muto Yugi."
Yugi finally smiled with relief, "You are not bad either, High Priest Kaiba Seto."
At this time, the guards who were secretly observing in the dark were all confused - because these two guys were communicating in Japanese three thousand years later!
