Chapter 25: Duel Spirits

3rd week of Friday of May, after the classes, the leisure club was back to the business (slacking) as usual.

A short purple-haired girl with jade-colored eyes stared intensely at a green-haired boy with crimson eyes. On the other hand, the other people in the leisure club room were watching the scene with various emotions and thoughts in their minds.

" So let me summarize what have you said to me... You are a psychic correct? Like those people that have ESP? "

" You are correct in your understanding Risa-chan. "

" You can read minds and see the future? "

" No! I can't see the future. I can't do most of the things that you have read in those supernatural sci-fi books. I was just shown some glimpses of information from the future and It wasn't in my control. And I can't also read people's minds! "

" I see.. "

Risa muttered to herself and carefully look at Tokio. After the events that happened yesterday, she has lost the duel between them. Since she agreed to the duel, Risa would attend the Domino High School and wouldn't transfer to the Black Rose Academy.

" Stay with us Risa, I promise that Kaiba wouldn't do anything to you. Did you and your sisters understand him at all? That guy was too cold and arrogant to be bothered with you again. If I'm wrong in my assumptions, I promise that I would protect you and your sisters as long as you didn't mess around with people. "

Risa thought that it wasn't bad that she lost the duel as she stared at the person in front of him. She continued her attendance in the Class 1-A of Domino High School and she was with everyone in the Leisure Club again. Thinking of the events yesterday, made her a little embarrassed. But at the same time, she was glad that it happened.

She didn't need to hide her true self from them anymore. They accepted it and Risa was both happy and satisfied.

Risa's gentle smile disappears she stared at the person in front of her. Tokio nervously chuckled under her gaze while he was sipping his tea. They are sitting face to face on the opposite side of each other.

But when she arrived after the classes in Leisure Club, under the excited gazes of the trio, Tokio decided to reveal some of the secrets and things that he knows to her.

He told her that he was a psychic and the duel monsters weren't just a normal card game.

Truthfully, Kageyama Risa was itching to know Tokio's secret. Yesterday, during the duel, Tokio revealed unknown power during their duel. The cards at that moment became alive and real.

It made her excited and afraid at the same time. But she knows that Tokio wasn't the kind of guy who would hurt people. Every life point that was removed from her was absent of pain during the duel.

Risa could feel the excitement brimming within her. A psychic just like in those books... Tokio has revealed this to them and that means he trusts them. On the other hand, Risa already knows that the duel monsters aren't a normal card game. But she would never think of the information that came from Tokio. The Origin of these cards.

" Duel Monsters aren't a normal card game. Do you know that there was a world that was beyond humans? It was the spirit world where duel spirits reside. And some duel spirits reside within the cards of duel monsters. Unfortunately, only a few people can see the duel spirits. "

Finally, after Risa thought of the things that Tokio revealed, she decided to ask something to Tokio.

" So. That means that there could be a Gorgon and Violet Hecate duel spirits that exist in the spirit world?! "

Tokio averted his eyes under the very intense and passionate gaze of Kageyama Risa. He also complained about the priorities of this violet-haired witch. After all of the things that happened, she would never even ask about the mysterious creator of the duel monster Maximillion Pegasus? Or maybe the reason why Tokio knows of these things. And how did he even become a psychic in the first place (he has already come up with lies to answer them without mentioning the system rewarding him about the psychic duelist ability and his knowledge being related to his past life)

While thinking of those things and complaining that Risa has her priorities wrong inside his mind as if reading his thoughts, Risa smiled at him.

" You must be wondering why I wasn't asking about other things right Tokio? "

" Well. I'm just curious why you wouldn't be asked about it and why I know of these things. "

Tokio said honestly while he was staring at his empty cup of tea. Risa faintly brush the locks of her hair and replied.

" Since you have revealed a lot of things to us. I wouldn't ask questions that you aren't ready to answer. "

Tokio felt relief at those words. But then Risa continued with her explanation.

" But I also felt that it was anticlimactic and boring with you spilling all of your secrets. "

Under the confident gaze of Risa, Tokio could feel the gratitude that welled up inside him earlier disappear in instant.

Meanwhile, Mayumi, Hailey, and Tomoyuki have decided on certain things since Tokio also revealed this information to them.

With a smile on their faces, Mayumi asked a request towards Tokio.

" President, could you teach us how to play Duel Monsters? "

" Eh? "

Tokio look at Mayumi in surprise. Then Tomoyuki decided to join too.

" That's right! President Teach us! I want to play duel monsters too! We promise that we would take this seriously! "

[ Nobu Nobu! ]

On Tomoyuki's shoulders, Nobunaga spread his wings wide as if saying that he agreed with his owner's statement.

" I want to learn to desu wa! President, you can't exempt me if you would also teach Mayumi and Tomoyuki! "

Tokio doesn't know what was going on with their minds, but since they wanted to learn to play cards, it wasn't bad to teach them about duel monsters with Risa's assistance.

Even with dangerous things that existed out there because of duel monsters, you could also play normal duel monsters without those things.

There's no need to save the world and bet your souls or life, people can also just play a normal duel monsters card game without those things.

Tokio was happy to indulge them in their request since it wasn't bad to have more opponents when playing duel monsters.

While Tokio was having those thoughts, he suddenly received a surprise from the system.
