Chapter 87 My heart and my actions are as clear as a mirror

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 After Bakura escaped, Hayato and the others were not in very good condition because of Yami Yugi, and the others did not pursue him.

As far as Hayato and Shada are concerned, it's okay to say that they are just a little exhausted from using the elf power too much.

Shada's [Anka Chestnut Ball] was originally a new elf that had just awakened, but was forced to squander its power again and again due to the war situation. It was also the first time for Hayato to use [La] alone without the support of props such as the [Millennium Wisdom Wheel].

The power of "Wing Shenlong", and it is not the mainstream slate in this era but in the form of cards. The conversion efficiency is too poor, so it is temporarily discontinued.

The biggest problem is Yami Yugi. In his battle with Bakura, his "soul" was reduced to zero in one breath. This was much more serious than losing his basic score to zero in a duel. Even if it is not worse than losing,

A dark game in which even the soul will be wiped out by the darkness is almost the same.

However, the amazing thing is that with the arrival of several game players, the "soul" of Dark Game, which should have completely returned to zero, miraculously rebounded a little. Even Seth could not explain the reason for this incredible situation, let alone

He actually couldn't see Yugi and the others right next to him, even if Jonouchi was only a few centimeters away from his face, he didn't notice it at all.

"Huh, Pharaoh's life is not in danger. It's lucky." Sett stood up and checked the status of the dark game and looked at Hayato beside him, "This time, it's really thanks to your existence, Hayato Kobayashi.



After hearing Seth's words, Jonouchi put his hands on his hips and said with certainty: "Yoshi, I'm sure, this guy is definitely not the Kaiba guy."

"Idiot, didn't Hayato explain it to us just now? This is the memory world of three thousand years in the stone slabs. Maybe some people are very similar to some people in our memories, but they are not the same person. This one looks very similar.

The priest of Seto Kaiba is named Set." Kyoko said helplessly after hearing Jonouchi's words.

And Jonouchi also curled his lips and said: "It's because Hayato said this guy's name is Seth that I find it strange. 'Sett', 'Seto', aren't they basically the same sound, and the one just now looks even more tapir-like."

The sound of 'Bakula' is exactly the same as 'Tapir Liang'."

"If it weren't for this, I'm pretty sure that guy Kaiba would never say thank you to anyone else, so this guy named 'Sett' can't be Seto Kaiba. I almost suspect that Kaiba and Hayato have teamed up to lie to us."
p>

"Compared to that, our current state is more weird, right?" Honda's words attracted the attention of the two people. At this moment, Honda was reaching out to touch the horse carrying the fallen priest Shada, but found that he was reaching out.

His hand couldn't touch anything at all, so he passed straight through the body of the war horse, "Not only can Set, who looks like Seto Kaiba, not see us, we can't even touch anything, it's like a ghost."

!"

Because Seth was checking Yami Yugi's situation just now, Yugi didn't get close to him. After hearing Honda's words, he thought for a moment and said, "Is it because we are in another world of my memory?

And we are not like Hayato who was pulled into this world by Tapiliang through dark games."

"In this memory world of three thousand years ago, no one knows our existence, which means that we do not exist at all in this world. In this case, we can understand why others cannot see us or touch us.



Glancing at Yami Yugi on the ground worriedly, Yugi added, "The reason why Hayato and I can see us is probably because they have memories related to us."

It has to be said that we cannot generalize between people. We have come to this memory world and encountered the same situation. The guesses given by the game cannot be said to be the same as those of a late-stage dragon cancer who is full of science except playing cards.

The similarities can only be said to be completely unrelated.

When Jonouchi heard Yugi's words, he also looked at Hayato and said: "Speaking of which, it has just begun. Why is Hayato sitting there all the time? Is he asleep? No wonder Seth, who looks the same as Kaiba, said

Just say thank you."

With Shada asleep, Hayato motionless, and An Yugi unconscious again, Seth, who couldn't see Yugi's presence except for the soldiers, would naturally think that he was the only one left here who was awake.

, it becomes understandable to speak out what is in your heart without any secret.

However, Hayato did not fall asleep. The reason why he remained silent was because at this moment, he was sinking his spirit into the [Millennium Wheel of Wisdom].

The sun disappeared from the sky, replaced by the moonlight that was soft but unable to illuminate everything. But even so, a large dark cloud came to cover the only light, and everything in the small village was shrouded in night.

In this dark night, a guest came to the small village. This was an era of war and chaos, but the people in the village knew that it was not easy for people who wandered outside, so they still welcomed the cloaked guest into the village.

.

Then, the naughty boy was hiding in the closet waiting for his family to come find him. Everything in his sight was covered in blood.

I thought it was a wandering traveler, but after entering the village, the other party immediately killed the two guards at the head of the village, and used their blood to spread the barrier between the inside and outside, as if they were butchers.

It is common to close the gate of the pig pen before slaughtering the pigs.

"For the continuation of the kingdom, the power of the [Millennium Artifact] is necessary. Everyone in the Thieves Village, please devote yourself to the righteousness of the kingdom!" Perhaps it was to intimidate the villagers, or perhaps to convince himself that the cloaked man

The butcher went on a killing spree among the villagers.

The villagers who fled in panic were killed one by one by the opponent with a sharp sword. The man moved his hands as if he was not killing the same kind of people, but just one doll after another, casually and casually. Even conditionally.

Under such circumstances, the butcher deliberately created wounds on the captured villagers first, and did not rush to kill them with one blow. Instead, he let them feel the pain and die in despair.

What can the boy do, go out and fight, and then be killed by the butcher's sword as easily as other resisting adults? All he can do is curl up and hide in the closet, and pass through the closet door.

Looking at the bloody massacre outside the window, he covered his mouth with his hands desperately, not daring to make a sound.

Are everyone in the village innocent? The young man knew that was not the case. Although it was just an ordinary village at the beginning, because it was close to the Valley of the Kings where the pharaohs of all generations rested, the main industry in the village was the construction of pyramids and various tombs.

I can’t say that I’m living a rich life, but I’m basically living a decent life.

But after the new pharaoh came to the throne, the man named King Aknamkanon, I heard from the uncle in the village who likes to chat about national affairs, seemed to be fighting against the aristocratic forces of the old religion, carrying out religious reforms, and moving the capital from Thebes.

The capital was moved to the newly built Ekhtatun. As a result, his mausoleum was built to the east of the new capital, instead of in the Valley of the Kings.

This has made everyone in the village unemployed, let alone maintaining the life without worries about food and clothing in the past. Since they are only good at construction but not good at farming, they cannot even provide basic food and clothing. They are worried about the future.

In order to make a living, the adults in the village chose to commit the most serious crime in the kingdom - to steal the royal mausoleum that was just around the corner by awakening the tomb.

The former "Village of Craftsmen", Clay Elna, became completely infamous because one after another adults were captured by the Tomb Guards, and it became a "Village of Thieves" that everyone wanted to beat.

And the young man who grew up in this village naturally knew that if the adults who were caught didn't insist that he had nothing to do with the village to prevent his family from being implicated, according to the laws of the kingdom, the whole village would have been unforgivable.

The sinner.

However, this shouldn't be such a punishment. Even if it is the law of the kingdom, there should be some people in the village who have never been exposed to tomb robbing like myself to survive, even if it is slavery or prison, not like

With such a bloody scene in front of him, the villagers he was familiar with died one after another in the massacre!

The village is not very big, with a total population of only a hundred people. The young man huddled in the closet with cold limbs, watching the cloaked butcher pull out the sword from the chest of the pregnant sister next door, and then stabbed her belly

With another sword, he also wiped out the life that had not yet been born.

As if he thought that everyone in the village should have been killed, or he had just gathered the necessary number of people, the butcher took off his hood, revealing a face that the boy had seen before. Before the current pharaoh moved the capital, he ascended the throne.

On that day, the boy also went to the royal capital to join in the fun. The butcher who killed the whole village was a member of the royal family who was close to the pharaoh at that time!

Is it the Pharaoh? The Pharaoh issued the order to massacre the village? That must be the case!

The young man's heart was filled with fear, resentment and anger, as if he wanted to completely engrave the appearance of the person in front of him in his mind, watching the other person carve complicated patterns on the ground with a long sword stained scarlet with blood.
p>

The moment the complex lines were completed, the river of blood flowing on the ground rushed toward the pattern as if being attracted, completely filling the depressions on the ground. The despair, unwillingness, and resentment in the blood were expressed in a unique way.

The method was refined, and in the golden light that should have been sacred and bright, but now gave people darkness and despair, a huge stone slab rose from the ground.

There was a human-shaped protrusion on the stone slab. The uneducated boy did not recognize the image of a god, and his eyes were firmly fixed on the gold jewelry and decorations on the human-shaped body.

The blood in the barrier on the ground surged towards the stone slab and merged into the golden utensils. However, just before those utensils were completed, the royal family member who massacred the village immediately took down several of them, causing the

Several props were not stained with blood.

The blood poured into the stone slab, giving the remaining three golden instruments the most powerful power. However, the incomplete state caused a certain being inside the stone slab to roar: "Akhnadi!"

The black energy rose from the stone slab and turned into a sharp claw to grab several golden utensils in the royal family's arms. However, the royal family had to move faster and take down the remaining three items from the stone slab first.

The sharp claws composed of black energy dissipated invisible before attacking him.

After losing all the golden instruments, the being inside the stone slab seemed to have lost all its power and fell silent, slowly sinking into the ground. The magic circle that had swallowed the blood of nearly a hundred people also lost its light and disappeared after that.

Missing.

There are only corpses left on the ground, and the royal family named "Akhna Emperor" already holds seven golden weapons.

"Is this the [Millennium Artifact] that is recorded in the [Millennium Magic Book] and has the power to achieve everything? It's so powerful, I can already feel the power in it!" The young man heard Akhnadi say to himself, and turned a

A golden eyeball was raised in front of his eyes, "You are the only one who can read the heart [Millennium Eye]. In order to prevent others from knowing my secret, I must use you."

Aknadi, who easily slaughtered the entire village, was cruel to others and even more cruel to himself. Without any hesitation, he put the [Millennium Eye], the third to last item taken out from his hand, into his own eye socket, and put his own

Crush the left eye directly and replace it with this golden eye!

After a while, as if he had adapted to the power of the [Millennium Eye], Akhnadi's face showed an ecstatic expression, but after looking down at the corpses on the ground, he sighed and muttered to himself

Said: "Ninety-nine lives were exchanged for the power of the [Millennium Artifact]. However, the sacrifice of these ninety-nine lives will be used to save nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine people. All for the continuation of the kingdom.

!"

"My heart and actions are as clear as a clear mirror, and everything I do is righteous!"

As he spoke, Akhnadi picked up the torch used for lighting in the village and started setting fire to it without hesitation. He wanted to use flames to bury this sin in ashes.

In the village, the flames began to spread, and the heat engulfed everything. Aknadi watched for a long time, and saw another house collapse in the village, and then left, but he did not see a short figure wrapping his body with corpses, emerging from the sea of ​​fire.

Escape!

The next moment, everything came to a standstill. Hayato, who had been standing beside the boy watching all this from the beginning, heard a voice ring in his ear:

"This is the dark truth of [Millennium Artifact]."

"This is the past of the kingdom you protect"

"Even if you see this truth, will you still stand on the side of this disgusting kingdom?"

Hayato glanced at the white-haired boy who was protecting himself with the corpse, and said coldly: "Oh, how did people die three thousand years ago, does it have anything to do with me? I don't care about those boring things, stop pretending.

Bakura."

"No, Tapirang!"

Speaking of the animated version and the manga version, the gap between the King's Memories is so big that it seems like two works. For example, in the animated version, Bakura is the chess piece controlled by Tapiryo, while Tapiroshi is sitting in front of the chessboard.

The overall situation, but in the comics, Bakura and Tapiliang are both in the memory world, and Tapiliang cannot control all of Bakura's actions.

In the comics, Bakura is a pure ancient person without the memory of Tapiryo, which makes him unable to see Yugi and others. In the animation, due to changes, Bakura has the memory of Tapiryo and can see Yugi and others.

The good thing is that--he was punched by Honda (乐
