Wandering around the scattered card shop, Judai bought many Rune stickers.
For example, things like 'There Can Be Only One', 'Level Limit - Area B', 'Rivalry of Warlords', and so on.
Adding to his already owned rare card, Solemn Judgment, this sticker Rune Deck was already taking shape.
"Not bad! With this, the Rune Deck's sustainability and life-saving ability are guaranteed!"
Judai nodded with satisfaction at the sight.
Because the Rune Deck's winning method is very special; it's not by clearing the opponent's life points, but by banishing all cards from the opponent's Deck, preventing them from drawing.
Therefore, a Rune Deck is extremely prone to inciting hatred from others.
But precisely because of this, the Rune Deck's field presence and development are very slow.
In OCG, Planet Pathfinder and Runick Fountain are both limited to 1, making the Rune Deck even harder to develop, so it needs many stickers to survive and ensure sustainability.
Although this is an anime and there are no such restrictions, he still needed to be careful.
"Even if these stickers aren't perfect yet, they can at least ensure the Rune Deck's operation!"
Judai nodded secretly at the sight.
His first use of the Rune Deck indeed shocked many teachers and students, even frightening them.
However, this type of Deck could also be targeted.
So he also needed to improve the Deck, and the current small sticker Rune was a good improvement.
[Remaining Points: 30 points!]
[Please, Host, keep up the good work, continue to Duel happily, and bring joy to others through Duels to earn more points!]
At this moment, the system's prompt also sounded in his mind at the right time.
"Of course, I will definitely do that!" Judai nodded with a smile, but soon his expression turned strange, "Are you sure others are happy? Not howling in despair!"
But it didn't matter, as long as he was happy, that was enough.
After all, this is King of Games, a game where only one side can feel happy.
"Phew, it's getting late, I should sleep!"
After doing all this, Judai quickly washed up, turned off the lights, and fell asleep.
After he fell asleep.
"Oni!"
A golden-haired loli figure suddenly appeared by the bed.
It was Judai's monster girl spirit, Wing of the Rune Stone - Hoki.
"Oni-chan, you're really handsome!"
Hugi's baby-fat face looked at Judai with a slight smile.
But she was not as cute and well-behaved as she appeared on the surface.
Instead, she had a mischievous thought, extending her small foot.
The sky gradually brightened.
Judai slowly woke up.
"Why did I dream of eating ice cream last night?"
Scratching his head in confusion, Judai got dressed and out of bed.
After washing up, he quickly walked out of the warehouse.
The first person he saw was again that blue-haired, cowardly student, Sho Marufuji, whose height was no more than Pan Changjiang.
And next to Sho Marufuji was a person who was wide and fat, like Guo Degang, with a face that resembled a koala.
"It's Hayato Maeda!"
Judai's heart stirred.
This Hayato, in the original work, was a very good friend of his, considered quite reliable.
Later, when he went to Pegasus's Industrial Illusions, he even specially designed a card for him, 'Skyscraper 2 - Hero City'.
"Since you've come to Osiris Red, you're all underachievers, so stop fantasizing about going to Obelisk Blue! You don't have that ability, understand!"
Hayato's face was indifferent at this moment, like a 'funeral culture' youth, directly dismissing Sho Marufuji.
It turned out that this Sho Marufuji, despite having few actual skills, loved to daydream.
After sharing a dormitory with Hayato, he inadvertently expressed his daydreams, only to be ridiculed by Hayato.
Because Hayato Maeda was a god-level repeat student who had been held back for several years.
He could tell that Sho Marufuji truly lacked that ability.
"Ah! This roommate is really hard to talk to!" Sho Marufuji looked dejected, but soon he saw Judai Yuki, and his expression immediately brightened.
"Big brother!" He immediately shouted, running towards Judai, "Big brother, where were you last night? I heard you were staying in the same dorm as us, but I couldn't find you anywhere!"
"Sho's big brother?" Hayato Maeda looked at Judai with surprise and uncertainty.
"Don't call me big brother, I'm not your big brother!" Judai's expression was calm, directly rejecting Sho Marufuji's address, and then nodded to Hayato, "I am Judai Yuki!"
"Judai Yuki! You're our roommate, the freshman who defeated Professor Chronos!" Hayato's eyes widened in surprise, filled with envy.
"That's right, it's me!" Judai smiled faintly, "From now on, I'll be sleeping in a separate place. We don't need to share a dorm because I prefer to be alone!"
"I see." Hayato nodded slowly, his pair of dark small eyes flickering, wondering what he was thinking.
"Ah! Big brother, whether you acknowledge it or not, I, Sho Marufuji, will always be your little brother!"
Meanwhile, Sho Marufuji, seeing Judai being closer to Hayato than himself, couldn't help but show a hint of jealousy in his eyes.
He quickly approached, with an expression of loyalty.
Judai's expression remained normal, but a hint of disgust flashed in his heart.
Sho Marufuji's character was just like his name.
He always wanted to be a little brother now, merely wanting to rely on his reputation so he could have someone to cover for him.
Once this ungrateful person gained his own ability, he would leave Osiris Red and move up to another academy.
Calling someone "Big brother" when in need, and "Judai" when not, described this type of "person."
"You want to be my little brother, it's not impossible!"
Thinking of an idea, Judai's lips curled up, his clenched fist quietly relaxed, and he suddenly changed his mind.
"Eh? Big brother, are you willing to let me be your little brother?!" Sho Marufuji immediately looked surprised.
"I can give you a chance, but you must pass my test!" Judai smiled, taking out his duel disk.
"Test? What test!" Sho Marufuji's heart skipped a beat, instinctively feeling something was wrong.
"Duel me!" Judai's words made Sho Marufuji's head suddenly retract.
"Ah! I have to Duel big brother! Then, then there's no need, right!"
Sho Marufuji showed fear, retreating a few steps, which made Hayato Maeda, who was beside him, look disdainful.
"If you don't even have the courage to Duel me, then leave here immediately, and don't say I'm your big brother!"
Judai Yuki's expression was calm, his eyes filled with indifference and coldness.
"Ah, how can this be!"
Sho Marufuji was incredibly conflicted, his face changing between expressions.
But the idea of finding a backer quickly dominated his mind.
"Okay, I'll Duel with big brother!"
He tried his best to put on a serious look, but in his heart, he was scheming.
[If I pretend to be diligent, maybe I can get Judai Yuki's approval in the Duel, and even if he defeats me, I might still become his little brother!]
Judai saw through his thoughts with a look of disdain in his heart.
For this 'Sho', he only had the thought of continuously defeating him to earn points.
Let him be the one to be exploited and suffer!"
Then let's Duel! Duel!" Judai opened his duel disk and drew 5 cards.
"Duel!" Sho Marufuji also fumbled, quickly took out his duel disk, and drew 5 cards.
4000 Life Points hovered beside the two of them.
