"In that case, there actually is a troublesome matter I need help with right now. But sending people from KaibaCorp would be too conspicuous. The three of you are perfect for it," Kisaragi said.
"Tell us. As long as it's within our ability," Raphael said.
"Recently, some people have been trying to use Kaiba Land's opening as an opportunity to sabotage things. I have a rough idea of who it is. Could the three of you help me keep an eye on that person?" Kisaragi said.
"Who exactly? A visitor, or one of the KC Cup contestants?" Raphael asked.
"Who could it be?" Kisaragi glanced around. "Let's not talk about that here. You three finally came to Kaiba Land, so let's go have some fun first."
Kisaragi gave them a meaningful look.
Raphael, Valon, and Alister understood immediately. They nodded one after another and headed toward Kaiba Land's attractions.
In the entertainment area of Kaiba Land, Kisaragi held a model gun and played an electronic shooting game together with Raphael.
"Kisaragi, who exactly is targeting KaibaCorp?" Raphael asked.
"Just someone competing with Seto. But he acts very cautiously. So far, he's only made one move."
Kisaragi pulled the trigger, shooting down the final enemy on the screen.
"You mean the incident at the Kaiba Dome before the KC Grand Prix?" Raphael asked.
"Exactly. I think he'll act again before long, so help me keep a close watch on him. He is…"
Kisaragi raised her gun and aimed the red laser sight at a screen displaying Zigfried Lloyd.
"Is it him? How do you know?" Raphael asked.
"Of course, because I saw it in the anime," Kisara thought.
"Call it a sixth sense. He just looks like someone with a lot going on beneath the surface."
"Fine."
Raphael turned and looked toward Alister and Valon. The two of them nodded, then left.
"I've had enough playing. I'm hungry now. Come eat with me," Kisaragi said.
"By the way, where's Kaiba? It's rare not to see him by your side," Raphael said with a smile.
"Him? He's been worrying himself sick over the KC Cup. And now that this mess has happened, he naturally can't wander around playing like me," Kisaragi said.
"So you asked us for help mainly to share his burden?" Raphael asked.
"That's right. As long as the KC Grand Prix ends successfully, KaibaCorp can come back to life, and he can complete his dream," Kisaragi said.
In Kaiba Land's control room, Kaiba sat before the console, staring intently at every monitor.
"Too quiet. Ever since the Kaiba Dome incident, nothing has happened. Was it just a simple prank? No, there must be a larger conspiracy!"
"A rat capable of hacking into KaibaCorp's computers wouldn't just sit obediently and do nothing. Could the enemy have already infiltrated the tournament?"
Kaiba suddenly realized something.
"Isono! Recheck the identities of every duelist immediately!"
"Yes, sir!"
"You damn rat. I will find you," Kaiba thought.
Suddenly, on one of the monitors, Kaiba saw Raphael following behind Kisaragi.
"Why are Doma's Three Swordsmen here? Are they involved in this?"
Without thinking further, Kaiba rushed out of the control room to find Kisaragi.
…
Kisaragi and Raphael arrived at a Chinese restaurant. With a nostalgic expression on her face, Kisaragi walked inside.
"You like Chinese food?" Raphael asked.
"It's all right."
Kisaragi sat down. The restaurant manager and most of the staff immediately came over.
"Miss Kisaragi has come to our humble establishment. What an honor. What would you like to eat? President Kaiba specifically instructed us to serve you with everything we have!" the manager said attentively.
"Then bring out the restaurant's signature dishes. Make it quick. I'm starving," Kisaragi said.
"Yes. We'll serve the dishes as soon as possible."
The manager bowed and withdrew.
"It seems Kaiba really does place you on the same level as himself," Raphael said.
Kisaragi only smiled and said nothing.
Before long, all the dishes were brought out. There were braised lion's head meatballs, Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, mapo tofu, and many more dishes. Everything was laid out in abundance.
"Miss Kisaragi, these are all signature dishes of our restaurant. We hope you enjoy them!" the manager said.
"Not bad. Thank you for your hard work, manager."
"You're far too kind. We'll withdraw for now. If you need anything else, please tell any staff member in the restaurant. They will prioritize serving you!"
"All right. You may go."
After the manager left, Kisaragi picked up her chopsticks.
"You should eat too. There are so many dishes, I can't finish them all. I shouldn't have let Alister and Valon leave," Kisaragi said.
"All right."
After the meal, just as Kisaragi was about to pay, Raphael took out cash before Kisara could.
"Miss Kisaragi, your bill will be charged to KaibaCorp's account. You do not need to pay personally."
"I see. Then let's go."
Raphael gave a wry smile.
Suddenly, a sharp female voice rang out.
"Duel King Aoi Kisaragi, I challenge you!"
Kisaragi and Raphael turned around. Behind them stood a woman in a yellow qipao with her hair tied into two buns.
"Isn't that Vivian Wong? Why are you here? Aren't you supposed to be dueling Rebecca right now?"
Suddenly, Kisaragi realized something.
"I see. You lost to Rebecca, didn't you?" Kisaragi said.
The moment she said that, Vivian's face flushed red.
"That's right, I lost. But I still want to challenge you!"
"Challenge me? The only one qualified to challenge me is the champion of the KC Grand Prix. Since you lost, you no longer have that right," Kisaragi said.
"My challenge has nothing to do with the KC Grand Prix. I don't believe I'm inferior to you in beauty or dueling skill. And yet—"
Vivian suddenly remembered the eve festival, when Seto Kaiba had dodged her without even looking at her, his eyes fixed only on Aoi Kisaragi. A nameless anger surged in her chest.
"I understand. Although I only need to duel once in the KC Grand Prix, no one said I can only duel once. Dueling you can count as killing time," Kisaragi said.
"You dare call it killing time?! Duel King, you'll pay for your arrogance!" Vivian said.
Raphael smiled lightly, as though he had already guessed the outcome. He knew Kisaragi's strength better than most. This woman might have some skill, but before Kisaragi, she was far too lacking.
"Manager, do you have somewhere spacious? This lady wants to duel me," Kisaragi asked.
"Miss Kisaragi, you may duel right here in the restaurant. The staff will move the tables."
The manager immediately began directing the staff to rearrange the tables and chairs. The other customers in the restaurant were also very interested in the duel, and even passersby outside were drawn in.
"Let's begin. I'm the Duel King, so for fairness, my Life Points in this duel will be 4000, while yours will be 10000. That way, no one can say I'm bullying you too much," Kisaragi said.
"Are you looking down on me?" Vivian said coldly.
"Not at all. It's just that there are so many spectators now. If it ends too quickly, everyone might not have enough fun," Kisaragi said.
"Fine. If you lose, don't try to use that rule as an excuse!" Vivian said.
"No problem. I'm very good at following the rules!"
