Protest Is Ineffective!

As Yuei Vu expected, the bunch of pendants he made with Ishizu were really selling well among screwball players these days.

Not to mention that this was still a spiritual weapon with a little bit of supernatural power, even if it was just an ordinary pendant, Yuei Vu reckoned that if a popular idol-type NPC like himself signed it, the screwballs would still buy with sky-high prices.

…Hey, don't say it, it seems like a really good idea.

Yuei Vu decided to try the upcoming Christmas promotion…

And at the moment, he was continuing to train his last disciple Judai in the card shop.

What? Do you ask why is he the last disciple?

…Of course, it's because the door is welded, no one can get out of the car!

The head of the little jellyfish was all about being happy, but the teaching still has to be done thoughtfully. Yuei Vu said that he was not a devil, and he also hoped from the bottom of his heart to train this little jellyfish well.

Since he needed to be trained, it was definitely not suitable to trick him with traps every day. Little jellyfish head was originally the kind of player who was good at thinking with his small intestines. He always relied on his divine draw to do whatever he wanted, and he never liked to use his brain in duels.

If you expect him to comprehend it by himself, God knows how much he will have to be tricked to get it right.

So Yuei Vu took advantage of his free time today and patiently explained some basic knowledge of deck building to Judai. After all, for duelists, the deck was the basic of the basics, and the first thing to learn was naturally how to build a deck.

Yuei Vu pointed it out unceremoniously when he came up, saying "Judai, there is a big problem with your deck construction!"

For example, the Spell Card "Burst Return", could only be activated if there was an "Elemental HERO Burstinatrix" on the field, and it returned all "Elemental HERO" on the field except her to the owner's hand.

This thing was not returning other monsters on the field to the hand, but returning other "Elemental HERO" to the hand. At first glance, wasn't this suicide?

However, Judai blinked his eyes innocently: "But this card's artwork is very handsome!"

Yuei Vu rolled his eyes.

Handsome? What's the use of being handsome? Can it be eaten?

But he looked in the mirror, thought about it, and felt…

…It can.

Ahem, but that's not the point!

Yuei Vu took over the deck of the Judai, casually opened the top card, and happened to find that it was the Equip Spell Card "Spark Blaster".

Only Elemental HERO Sparkman could equip it, and it could change the battle position of monsters on the field up to three times.

Yuei Vu explained to Judai that this thing was not completely useless, but it was limited to only "Elemental HERO Sparkman", which seemed very tasteless.

Because if he couldn't draw Sparkman, this thing was a waste card in your hand, occupying the position of a hand card for nothing…

Before Yuei Vu finished speaking, he saw the little jellyfish draw a card from the top of the deck, turned it over, and handed it to the teacher: "Sensei, look, 'Elemental HERO Sparkman'!"

Yuei Vu: "…"

He hadn't finished the second half of the sentence, but Judai forcibly interrupted him, blocked his mouth, and made him speechless.

…All right, you have a Kaiba-brand 502, so pretend I didn't say that.

Little Judai looked bewildered as if he was puzzled by the concept the teacher said.

Ah? Can't get it? Why can't I get it?

If you can't even draw the cards you want to use, why do you duel?

It was also true that the method of teaching the protagonist could not be bound by common sense. Some things that were useless for other players and have harsh usage conditions may be killer moves in the hands of the protagonist.

Fortunately, Yuei Vu has more or less touched the threshold of the divine draw now, and this aspect was no longer as mysterious as it was when he first came to this world.

And now he has stuffed some "unknown meaning" things in his own deck.

Otherwise, let him, a player who was used to playing real-life cards in the past, teach a protagonist to play cards, it might not be possible.

But even with the divine draw, there were still too many "unknown meaning" things in Little Judai's deck. Even if you were not afraid of getting brick hands and could draw them at the right time, their strength and effect were mediocre, and there was no investment value at all.

However, Little Judai liked to put them in his deck.

The reason was very simple.

——Because the card is handsome!

Facing Little Judai's bright eyes and innocent expression, Yuei Vu twitched the corner of his mouth and then said directly without mercy——

–Throw!

Throw away all these useless things!

"ah?"

Little Judai's smile disappeared immediately. He fidgeted with his deck of cards with his little hands, and the little jellyfish lowered its head as if his father ordered him to throw away his favorite toy.

For a moment, Yuei Vu couldn't help but have the illusion that he was a villain…

…No, it's all for his own good too!

Little Judai was reluctant to part with every card that was removed: "Mr. Yuei Vu, can this card also be used?"

"No need."

"What about this one?"

"No need."

"And what about this?"

"…"

In a short time, the thickness of the deck of the Judai has been visibly reduced.

"But sensei, doesn't a deck need at least forty cards?" Judai asked innocently, "What should I do if I lack so many cards?"

Yuei Vu thought for a while and first took out a few cards such as Pot of Greed, Spell Books from the Pot, and Card of Sanctity.

"In short, stuff these things first."

Judai was a little confused: "Do we need so many?"

Yuei Vu patiently explained: "Think about it, the main focus of the HERO deck is 'fusion'. If you want to summon any Fusion monster—for example, the Flame Wingman, how many cards do you need?"

"Huh? Uh… three?"

"How many cards did you have in your hand in the first turn?"

"Six…six cards…" Little Judai suddenly realized, "Ah! So that's the case! That's why I need to replenish the cards in my hand…"

Yuei Vu nodded slightly and rubbed his little head.

Yes, good children can be taught.

Although it may be difficult to explain the concept of "card advantage" to Judai, it was a good start anyway.

In addition, generally speaking, real-life card players liked to limit their decks to forty cards, because it was easier to draw key cards to play the expected tactics. But this problem naturally did not exist if you could perform divine draws.

So Yuei Vu's education to the Judai was that the thicker the deck, the better, and all the cards that should be added must be added!

Each additional card increased the chances that your deck would be able to handle the unexpected!

As a last resort, when encountering a situation where all the cards in the deck could not solve, then consider printing cards…

Judai was confused again: So what should I put in the deck next?

So Yuei Vu took out all kinds of red cards this time.

As the saying goes "In case of indecision, first set traps".

Anyway, aren't you afraid of getting brick hands? Come, come, come, let's add Solemn Judgement, Trap Hole, and so on…

Of course, these were just suggestions.

After all, such things as decks must be formed by duelists themselves to be their own. In the end, the choice of cards and the configuration of the deck must be decided by Judai himself.

At this moment, Chika, who was wearing a maid's attire and wrapped in an apron, poked her head out of the kitchen: "The meal is ready."

"Okay." Yuei Vu rubbed Judai's little jellyfish head again – he recently found that the more he rubbed the little head, the more enjoyable he was, "Let's go and eat."

"Okay!" Judai nodded vigorously.

At the same time, his spirit partner Yubel was floating by the side with his arms folded, glaring at Yuei Vu.

Not long ago, Yuei Vu touched Judai's head once, and Yubel expressed dissatisfaction.

I want to protest!

I can't remember that I ever allowed you to touch his head!

I haven't even touched it!

Now every time Yuei Vu did this, she would pop up and stare at Yuei Vu with cold eyes of different colors to express her silent protest.

Of course, her protest…was clearly ineffective.

After all, she couldn't beat Yuei Vu in a duel…
