Yu-Gi-Oh Spirit Duelist c3

After getting three eggs, Raynor began to look for any opponents to face.

He didn’t need to wait for long as one of the lesser dragons appeared before him.

‘Is that Winged Dragon? One of those Fortress guardians?’ The Duelist pondered as he pulled out his Hinotama card.

As the small blue dragon swept over and dived at Raynor, he pointed his card, and several fireballs manifested and rushed towards the approaching dragon.

Then, a midair explosion happened as the Duel Monster exploded into glass particles and turned into white energy.

“Nice going! Your power growth is impressive!” Magician’s Valkyrie wanted to rush to fight, but her Duelist dealt with it instantly.

‘So each fireball is around 500 damage, so three of them were enough.’ Raynor pondered as he pulled out one of the egg cards and pointed at the energy in the air.

This energy rushed into the card… glowing… then changing.

“Hmm? It would seem it became a chick already.” The Slither Duelist saw the new card.

“Yep! This part is easy! But afterwards it's quite hard.” She nodded before telling him about the next stage.

“Strange… It's a normal card, without effects…” Raynor inspected it even more. Last time he checked, Black Dragon’s Chick was a special monster.

“Well, duh! You need to raise it to have effects! How can it summon an adult dragon when you don’t have it?” The Valkyrie puffed her cheeks for a second.

“I see…” 

After getting one chick, he was about to continue his trip, but then…

He felt an insane pull on his very being as he felt that someone yanked his very soul out, and then he rushed through the same spirit world and spirit gates.

~~~

“Gah!?” Raynor’s eyes snapped open as he realised that he had just woken up from his sleep.

Or more like his body woke up.

“Damn…” He complained. His mouth felt dry… in truth, he didn’t feel that rested at all.

It would seem these spiritual trips have a bad aftereffect.

As he was about to move, he felt something on his side… when he looked to the side, he saw a girl with long hair sleeping while hugging his hand.

His eyes widened as he, for a second, panicked, and she disappeared.

“Moh! Don’t just recall me when I am napping like this!” The Valkyrie complained in his head.

“Oh…” With that said, he thought about it, and she once again appeared in front of him… the Valkyrie was dressed this time and sitting on his bed.

“...Interesting. It's purely intention-based.” He pondered out loud for a second.

“You do know that you don’t do tests with girls like that!” She huffed while crossing her hands.

“Sorry.” Raynor motioned for her to calm down.

“You better! After all, I am your first spirit!” She puffed her cheeks, exclaiming that he was being naughty with his actions.

“Okay, okay. Just become invisible or something. You have no idea how rare it is for duel spirits to appear like this.”

Valkyrie slowly nodded as she understood that.

“I know. Don’t worry, but right now there is no one here.” The girl grinned before jumping on him and starting to snuggle into him.

“Ow! You do know you are wearing armour.” Raynor felt that something blunt smacked into his chest.

The Magician’s Valkyrie realised that it was the truth. She looked ashamed for a second.

“Tehehe~ sorry~.”

He pushed her back before moving down from his bunk bed.

He went to check his cards. The duelist looked surprised when he saw that the cards he got from the spirit realm looked a bit different.

They had that rare gloss of the rare cards from his old world. Depending on the observing angle, it would have a different gloss.

“Beautiful…” He commented on his cards.

‘First trip and I already have 10 cards… that’s like 25% of a deck.’

“Whoa, my card looks great!” Valkyrie floated over and checked the first card he was holding.

“Indeed.” Raynor agreed as he checked the card before placing them into his deck holder.

He then checked the schedule for today and the time.

“...ugh… it looks boring.’ The teen complained before preparing to leave the room.

After quickly washing up and refreshing, he was ready to leave. He needs some fresh air as he needs to stay awake. 

The first thing he saw outside was a hulking mountain of brown scales sleeping outside his room.

“Holy…” He nearly jumped out of his clothes from the sheer surprise.

The surprise of seeing a legit dragon sleeping outside his room was not what he expected to see first thing in the morning.

Thankfully, no one was there to see him react like that as the Duel Spirit was transparent, his Tyrant Dragon was sleeping in ghost form.

“Anyway.” He took a deep breath and continued to walk, going to the cafeteria to get a quick grub before walking to the academy.

This time around, he saw more students. However, he still didn’t see any familiar faces, which made him wonder what year he was in. If it was after Jaden or before Jaden, then he was kind of saved.

No Yandere duel spirit or old man who wants Sacred Beasts.

Or the light of destruction…

Sounds good to him. 

But then…

As he got into his seat in the classroom, he heard someone talk.

“Did you hear? Professor Crowler lost to some kid! He used his deck and still lost!” 

“No way! Doesn’t he have an ancient gear golem deck?” 

“Yeah! That’s the one.”

Some Ra Yellow students were talking in the back, which made Raynor’s lips twitch.

It would seem episode one just happened, and new students are about to join the school.

‘Well, that is interesting.’

As he was pondering, he noticed a small black dragon flying around the classroom.

A small smile appeared on his lips as he finally realised why they were getting self-study classes.

It would seem there are no main teachers.

‘I doubt that. Surely there should be some supervising adults.’

After the self-study classes, Raynor went straight to the dormitory and went to sleep. Fuck post-class activities, he is not interested.

He should organise his spirit world activities a bit, as sleep has always been important to him, regardless of the world.

…

…

…

“Whoa, check it out, bunk beds!”

Raynor's eyes snapped open as he looked around. For a second, he was terrified that he would have roommates.

But when he looked around, he realised that the sound came through the walls.

‘Right… the classic thin walls thing…’  he sighed in relief, before turning around and closing his eyes.

This time around, he ignored the heat source; in fact, he hugged the source and continued his sleep.

After a while, the ruckus ended and he got back to his sleep.

A couple of hours later, he woke up, and when he opened his eyes, there was a smug smile on a girl's face before him.

“Did you sleep well? My dazzling duelist~” The Valkyrie teased him.

“Hn, yeah. But now I am feeling lazy.” Regardless, he got out of bed and checked the time. Thankfully, there was no one in the room; instead, people moved next door.

‘I had this feeling that I had heard that voice before.’ He checked his phone like a device. There was an email stating that a welcoming ‘banquet’ would be held.

‘I would believe that if not for the fact that I was in Slitherin Red.’

Still, he wants to check it out.

“Apparently, there is a banquet and I am hungry. Let’s go.” He said to his spirit.

“I will, but first I want to check something. There is an awakened duelist in the building.” She looked around.

“Awakened duelist?” Raynor looked confused for a second.

“Yes. Someone who can perceive Duel Spirits. Those people have heightened senses and luck on their side.” The valkyrie floated down. He finally noticed that she was wearing his t-shirt…

“I see…” He nodded while looking at her dressed in his clothes… She is clearly feeling at home, dressed in his clothes.

“Yep, so I will come back in a minute.” She smiled for a second, with a burst of light, her regular valkyrie clothes appeared before she disappeared completely.

Raynor shook his head. He already knew who it was; regardless, he left his room and went to the cafeteria section in the dormitory.

He noticed some fresh faces. Thankfully, not that many of them are there.

“There is something going on! You should see it!”

‘You found something?’ The duelist replied as he was eating nicely fried fish and rice. 

“Yep, the awakened student is about to face a duelist. Do you want to watch it?” She asked him. 

‘Sure…’ He quickly finished his food before bringing the plate to the front and then walking out of the Cafeteria.

He looked around for a second. It was already quite late, but it was still visible to him. He wondered if it was related to the fact that his senses were heightened.

‘Lead the way, Valkyrie.’

“Okay!”

The girl magically appeared before showing him where to walk.

“Try out your new powers. You should be able to run faster.” She said directly into his mind.

‘I can do that? Why didn’t you say it before!?’ He complained before trying it out. His eyes widened the very next second as he felt that he burst forward like a gust of wind.

“You never asked!”

Raynor can tell she was puffing her cheeks as he appeared in front of the school building. The duelist didn’t wait as he continued to be led by his duel spirit.

Sure enough, he ended up in one of the duel arenas.

He saw a pair of teens in the arena activating their duel disks.

“You shouldn’t be here.” A girl spoke from the side.

“Says the girl… who shouldn’t be here either.” He joked, making her frown. 

“I did warn you. If you get into trouble, I won’t help you.” She turned away and looked at the arena with crossed arms.

“Well, I would help you. But besides the point. I am a Slither; people expect me to slack off, unlike you, Miss Obelisk Blue.” He sarcastically commented as he looked at the arena where the duel started and the two combatants pulled their five cards.

“...” She looked at him for a second before looking back at the duel. For a second, she wondered who he was. The girl was having a strange feeling about him.

Her duelist senses were telling her that something about him was odd.

Regardless, they looked at the duel. The first one to make a move was the obelisk guy. Raynor recalled him from anime quite well. It was Chazz Princeton. 

Opposite to him was Jaden, the original Mc, the reincarnation of the Prince who can wield the Gentle Darkness.

Honestly, he wants to know if it’s the truth. His senses are telling him that he does have some sort of power.

But it’s far too weak to tell him anything. 

The Obelisk was placed face down, and a zombie was in a defensive position.

“A set-up. Clearly, he is goading him to make something big.” He commented, seeing the two cards set up.

The zombie has decent defensive powers… though its abilities are not useful in this situation.

“If he wanted to goad him, he would have placed it in an attack position. It is clearly a way to check what he would do.”

“True, but his expression tells me otherwise.” 

He looked at her, smiling for a bit. She frowned and looked at Chazz's expression.

‘Chazz always has that expression.’ The girl had no idea what to think, but sure enough, it was Jaden’s turn.

The Slither, with a very excited look, showed a green card.

“I use Polymerisation to fuse my Element Hero Burstinatrix and Elemental Hero Avian to form… Elemental Hero Flame Wingman!” 

With all the flair, the two monsters fused and created a Fusion Monster.

“I was waiting for that! Slither slacker! I activated my trap card, Chthonian Polymer!” A trap card revealed itself.

It was a picture of fire and a creature burning in it.

“Told you so,” Raynor commented from the side.

The girl rolled her eyes for a second.
