In the following days, Jaden kept his promise.

He attended classes on time every day, with no further absences.

Even several of the teachers were so touched they almost cried.

They never expected Jaden Yuki to not miss a single class for days in a row!

It was too touching, truly moving!

Although, even when he was in class, he wasn't really listening…

But at least he was present.

At the very least, it was a sign of respect for the teachers.

However, on the other hand.

The Underworld Duel Society seemed to be growing increasingly rampant.

More than half of the first-year students had fallen victim to their "poisonous hands."

The club was constantly expanding, and some members had even begun to provoke older students.

...

In class, the teacher was endlessly explaining a duel problem on the blackboard.

In the corner by the window, Jaden Yuki was still sleeping, propped on his hand, as usual.

Not far away, Alexis Rhodes was diligently taking notes, while unconsciously glancing in Jaden Yuki's direction.

Seeing the boy sleeping soundly, Alexis felt a hint of jealousy.

"...He clearly doesn't bother to remember such important knowledge, so why does he consistently get high scores on every exam?"

"Is he cheating? Or has he been secretly working hard where no one can see him?"

"Sigh..."

Alexis shook her head and averted her gaze.

A brain like that, sometimes no matter how much you envy it, you just can't have it.

For example, compared to her two best friends, Alexis was already considered a pretty good genius.

"Hmm?"

Thinking of her best friends.

Alexis then realized that one of her two best friends, Mindy, was absent!

"Jasmine, where's Mindy?" Alexis quickly whispered, asking.

"Mindy was called out by that Jaden Yuki guy before class..." Jasmine blinked, looking at Alexis.

It was only then that Jasmine unexpectedly realized Jaden Yuki was still in the classroom!

"Eh? How is Jaden Yuki still here?"

"He never left the classroom, you know..." Alexis rubbed her forehead helplessly.

"But, the person who called Mindy out earlier..."

Jasmine began to recall carefully.

The appearance of that 'Jaden Yuki' gradually became clear.

"Wait! That person wasn't Jaden Yuki at all!"

...

On the sports field.

A duel was raging intensely.

Mindy nervously watched the situation before her, and the sneering boy opposite her.

"You, who exactly are you!"

"You don't need to know who I am, you just need to know that if you lose, you must join our 'Underworld Duel Society'."

The boy sneered, looking at the card he had drawn.

"I will always believe in my Deck... Let me show you the bond between me and my Deck!"

"Activate Spell Card! Polymerization!"

"Polymerization?" Mindy's face turned pale.

This guy's Deck...

"I fuse 'Elemental HERO Avian' and 'Elemental HERO Burstinatrix' from my hand!"

The boy held up the three cards, a satisfied expression on his face.

"Come forth! My favorite Monster Card!"

"Elemental HERO Flame Wingman!"

Green and red light rushed into the fusion vortex.

The moment the colorful light burst forth, a hero with a red dragon head breathing fire from its right arm and white wings soaring from its left arm appeared before Mindy.

[Elemental HERO Flame Wingman]

[Level: 6]

[ATK: 2100, DEF: 1200]

"Eek..."

Mindy took a step back, her face filled with panic.

"In, in this situation, I, I need to..."

Mindy frantically looked at her Duel Disk.

On the Duel Disk, there was only one Set Card left.

What was that Set Card again...? Oh, right, it was 'Ultimate Offering'.

What was this card's effect again...?

Ugh, ugh...

Tears welled up in Mindy's eyes as she desperately tried to recall the effect of her Set Card.

"Battle!"

"Eh? But..."

"Elemental HERO Flame Wingman, direct attack! Flame Blast!"

The boy launched his attack without mercy.

Under the terrifying heat of Elemental HERO Flame Wingman, Mindy screamed and fell to the ground, her Life Points rapidly dropping to zero.

"Ugh... I lost."

Mindy lowered her head, her heart filled with grievance.

"According to our wager, you're joining our 'Underworld Duel Society'!" The boy smirked, "And, according to the club rules, you must hand over the rarest card in your Deck."

"You're despicable! You scoundrel!"

Mindy angrily glared at the boy before her.

Suddenly, she seemed to remember something.

"I remember now, you're Kagurazaka from Class 1, aren't you?"

"Ah, I didn't expect anyone to remember my name." Kagurazaka chuckled, crossing his arms, every movement filled with a blatant imitation of Jaden Yuki.

"But unfortunately, it's no use even if you report me to the Academy, because according to Academy rules, inviting people to join a club through a duel is perfectly fine."

"Ugh..."

Mindy was speechless.

"Wait a minute! Although it's fine to invite people to join a club through a duel according to Academy rules, whether or not they join should be entirely voluntary, not forced like this!"

Just as Mindy was in despair.

A cool, detached voice sounded from the side.

Both of them turned to look.

They saw a tall, blonde girl with a serious expression walking towards them.

Alexis... Rhodes!
