Chapter 47: King’s Memory, Open
After walking out of Malik's house, everyone discovered that during the time they went to the underground secret room, all the members of the tomb-guarding clan who had been normal before fell to the ground with faces full of pain. Although they did not examine them carefully one by one, when passing by the fallen Tomb Guards clan members, everyone could clearly feel the aura of dark magic wrapped around them.
There was no need to guess, and I knew that it was definitely Tapi Liang who did it. In order to perfectly infiltrate the tomb-guarding clan, he killed all the witnesses, like a certain man who cannot be named.
"Don't worry about these guys. I just subdued them and didn't hurt anyone. After all, if I killed someone here, you would definitely not continue to cooperate with me, right?"
Tapirang, who was walking in front, didn't even frown, and turned a blind eye as he stepped over the body of a tomb-keeper clan member who fell to the ground - Hayato knew that person, and he was the one who was the most courteous to him among the guards before. The one—— said without looking back, "When we leave, they will wake up naturally."
When Hayato heard this, he had an unhappy expression on his face: "It's best that way."
If possible, Hayato really wanted to finish off Tairyo right here, but he couldn't.
This is not only because Tapirang controlled Yin Xisi as a hostage, but also because even if the power of elves is used to kill Tapirang on the physical level, it will only kill the human being "Tairangle". For the control at this moment It is impossible for the evil will that controls Tairyo's body to work, even if he uses the power of Hayato's strongest "three phantom gods".
After all, the unknown Pharaoh had already tried it three thousand years ago.
As for dueling rituals and dark games, it's not like Hayato has never used them before in the duel kingdom. He originally thought that killing "Dark Tapiryo" at that time might stabilize him for a while, but he was swallowed up by the rules of dark games. In less than five days, "Dark Tapiryo" sneaked back into Tapiryo's body, and then attacked Bekas to seize the [Millennium Eye].
There was no absolute certainty that he could deal with the other party, and at the same time, the other party still had important hostages in his hands, so Hayato really had nothing to do with Tairyo.
But it doesn't matter. Although Hayato has forgotten many plots due to the passage of time, Hayato has not forgotten the most impressive plot of "Memory of the King" in the "Yu-Gi-Oh!" plot.
As long as you follow the plot, the evil will of An Tapirang will be implemented in his character - "defeat rate 99%". He will lose to An Yuxi in the final Dark Game and be defeated in the King's Memory. The game can also retrieve one's own name and memory at the same time.
Although there is a risk that if you lose the game, you will also be swallowed by darkness, but this is a necessary sacrifice for the final victory. In Hayato's heart, he persuaded himself not to interfere with Tapiliang.
And just as Hayato had expected, as expected, Tapirang led everyone to leave the Tomb Keeper Clan and walked for quite some distance before arriving at a cave leading underground. Tapirang, who had been leading the way before, stopped. He stopped and turned around to look at everyone: "The first stop, the stone slab leading to the King's Memory has arrived. I told you I didn't lie to you."
"Originally, this slate was specially sent to Doshino City, which is great. But it was sent back because of the exhibition. If it were still in Doshino City, we wouldn't have to go to Egypt at all. Look for this stone slab." Tapirang complained with a look of disgust on his face, "Thankfully that woman knew where this stone slab was placed after it was transported back to Egypt, otherwise I might not even be able to find it."
"Also I have to mention that the [Millennium Eye] is really easy to use, but I would be even happier if it was the [Millennium Wheel of Wisdom]."
"Oh, that's not possible. The [Millennium Wheel of Wisdom] is mine. Why don't you call it and see if it answers you?" Hayato glanced at Tapi Liang and sneered.
"You obviously snatched it from me, but you still have the nerve to speak so confidently?" Tapirang rolled his eyes as a reply to Hayato, turned to look at An Yuxi, and chuckled, "Okay, Yugi, no, nameless Pharaoh, you who have been obsessed with your lost memory and disappeared name have finally gathered the necessary conditions and arrived in front of the stone slab where you can retrieve your memory and name."
"Go in, unknown Pharaoh, that is the fate that has been waiting for you for three thousand years."
With that said, Tairiang made a respectful gesture and stepped aside, indicating that Yami Yugi could enter the cave leading to the King's Memory Slate.
"You don't need to tell me!"
After hearing what Tapiliang said, An Yugi, who had always been steady, showed an irritated expression.
On the one hand, although it was Hayato who made the idea to temporarily cooperate with Tapiryo, Yugi couldn't overcome the hurdle in his heart. After arriving in Egypt and meeting Tapirang again, Yugi couldn't figure out why he felt a different kind of disgust towards Tapirang in his heart, and why he didn't like him.
On the other hand, although I have been pursuing my memories, when the moment comes when I can really retrieve my memories, it would be false to say that there is not even a trace of hesitation and confusion in my heart.
Datsu's demagogic speech a long time ago still echoed in An Yugi's ears. He didn't know what he was like in the past, as a pharaoh three thousand years ago who used the [Thousand-Year Artifact] with such a bloody truth behind it. What is the reason for this person to lose his memory and name and return to the world after three thousand years?
And, after recovering the memory, will I become a completely different person from myself now, and so on.
However, now is not the time to think about those things. Although Yami Yugi also has the shortcomings of human nature, he will hesitate, feel pity, and regret, but he can suppress these emotions with reason. Now he has come to the only distance from the stone slab. A step away, then it is indeed time to retrieve the memory.
Thinking like this, Yugi glanced at the people around him, his eyes swept over Kyoko, Jonouchi, Honda, Hayato and others (Malik, Becas: Hello!), nodded slightly, and walked towards the downward extending cave. among.
Going down the long stone steps, in just a moment, everyone arrived underground. In a cave that was only one room in size, the wall contained a three-thousand-year-old painting that had been exhibited in Tongshiye City. The unknown pharaoh before, the ancient Egyptians who were very similar to Kaiba, the [Black Magician] and the [Blue Eyes White Dragon] and the "Three Illusion Gods", the stone tablet that recorded the memory of the king.
"The slate of memory... came to me again." Looking up at the "self" depicted on the slate, Yami Yugi said to himself, and behind Yami Yuxi, Kyoko looked at Yami Yuxi's back , there are thousands of thoughts in my heart.
'Yuyu...Although I always call him 'Yuji' as if nothing has happened. There is another person's personality in Yugi's body, but I have never known his real name...' He put his hand into his pocket. , the fingertips felt the cold feeling brought by the hard object, Kyoko made up her mind and took out that thing from her pocket.
"Yugi," she called out to stop Yami Yugi who was looking at the slate and about to retrieve his memory. Kyoko held a necklace with a metal nameplate in her hand and handed it to Yami Yugi, "Please, take it. Take this one.”
An Yugi turned around and looked at the thing in Kyoko's hand. Because he had no memory, he didn't know what the thing in Kyoko's hand was: "Is this...?"
"A nameplate that can be engraved with names. When I was at the airport, I heard that it was used to engrave the names of ancient Egyptian pharaohs, so I bought it specially." Kyoko explained as she watched An Yugi reach out to borrow it.
Picking up the metal nameplate and looking at it, An Yugi said with some confusion: "But there is no name engraved on it?"
"In that case, when your memory is restored, Yugi, and you recall your real name, I hope you can carve your name on it." Kyoko showed a smile, trying hard to express it more relaxedly, but she couldn't hide the smile at all. "This way, no matter what happens next time, I won't forget it."
Following Xingzi's glance to the side, everyone noticed that some damage was particularly obvious on the stone slabs that had been weathered and ravaged by time. The positions of those gaps seemed to be exactly where the Pharaoh's name was recorded.
"The Pharaoh's name on the stone tablet has all been crossed out, hasn't it? I want to at least let me know your real name."
Looking at Kyoko, An Yugi smiled: "Thank you, Kyoko, I will cherish this gift."
With that said, An Yuxi untied the necklace, put it on his neck, and turned to face the stone slab again.
On the side, watching Yami Yugi and Kyoko's farewell end, Hayato stretched out his hand to Yami Yugi, and saw the three gods of [Obelisk's Titan Soldier], [Osiris's Sky Dragon] and [Ra's Winged Dragon]. He handed the card to Yami Yugi, and this time the spirit of [Ra] also deliberately returned from the [Sphere Form] to the main body card of [Ra's Winged Dragon].
"Then, let's start the game and get your memory back."
"Well, thank you, Hayato." Taking the three cards handed over by Hayato, Yami Yugi nodded solemnly and looked at the stone slab solemnly.
I came to the stone slab with three God Cards. What will happen at this moment? The answer is here!
"Let's begin!" As he said this, Yami Yugi raised his hand and raised the three God Cards toward the direction of the stone slab, all above his head.
In an instant, the ground was shrouded in light bursting from the stone slab, and the source of the light was the [Millennium Building Block]-style carving in the center of the stone slab. The stone slab that seals the King's memory is officially opened with the power of the nameless Pharaoh's soul and the three God Cards!
At this moment, An Yuxi felt that his body was so light, as if his body was no longer bound by gravity and he was floating up. He moved his eyes away from the shining stone slab to avoid the light, subconsciously glanced below, but saw "Own".
No, it's not myself, it's Aibo, it's Muto Yugi's body. His soul has left Aibo's body, and seems to be floating in the direction of the glowing stone slab!
My own soul and restraint that have been bound within the [Millennium Building Blocks] have been released!
There was no time to think more, and in the next moment, Dark Game, the soul of the Nameless Pharaoh, sank into the shining stone slab, and at the moment it entered the stone slab, the Nameless Pharaoh instantly knew that this stone slab was being Open the door to his lost memory!
A tunnel-like space appeared in front of the nameless Pharaoh. With a nervous mood, he closed his eyes and waited for memories to emerge in his mind.
But what he didn't know was that at this moment, the outside world saw An Yugi using three God Cards to open the slate of King's Memory. Tapirang, who had led them here, was sitting on the steps and suddenly collapsed.
From a perspective that no one else could witness, a soul detached from Tairiang's body and laughed: "Hahahaha, you have been fooled, Hayato Kobayashi and Yugi Muto, this is my offensive line!"
Following the shining stone slab, Yami Yuliang's soul sank into the stone slab almost immediately behind Yami Yugi.
"I have been waiting for this day for a long time. My clone hidden in the [Millennium Building Block] is my coordinate. The moment the door of the King's Memory opens, I will also enter the King's Memory. This ultimate The dark game will also——"
Entering the tunnel-like space, he saw the nameless Pharaoh floating not far in front of him without moving too far. Tapirang laughed proudly, and was about to attack the unsuspecting nameless Pharaoh, but suddenly felt his body sink.
Turning his head abruptly, Tapirang saw the position where he had just entered, and his leg that had not left far was caught by an arm.
Immediately afterwards, the owner of the arm also got in and poked his head out. Wasn't it Hayato?
"How on earth did you get in here! Don't hinder me!" Looking at Hayato, Anzai Liang said angrily.
"Nothing will change without intervention. Although I thought so before, it's not my style to come back after suffering a loss without taking revenge."
At the moment when Yami Yugi opened the memory of the king, Hayato used the power of several [Millennium Artifacts] on his body to submerge his soul into the stone slab because he was well prepared. He looked at Tapiliang who was being dragged by him, and sneered, "So, don't If you want to cause trouble in the game, your opponent is me, Tapirang!"
"Oh, Uno!" Seeing his body getting further and further away from the nameless pharaoh due to Hayato's interference, Anzai Liang glared at Hayato, "I can't lose anyway. In that case, it's okay to have one more player. Please join me in this dark game, Hayato Kobayashi!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a force spread violently from the dark tapiron, shrouding everything in the tunnel space in darkness, and Hayato lost consciousness in an instant.
The next moment, Hayato heard someone shouting something in his ear.
