"Chapter 764: This matter is my fault, but I will not apologize
Kaiba was also filled with curiosity towards the woman held in the arms of the person who looked exactly like him, a woman emanating a familiar aura. He followed them. Seto, completely unaware that someone was following him, walked towards the Royal Palace on his own.
Just now in the Dungeon, Kisara had transformed into the Blue-Eyes White Dragon and eliminated Moth Wing before turning back into her human form and falling unconscious. The rescued Seto had no mind to think about anything else at the moment. His heart filled with worry for Kisara, he headed straight for the Medical Ward, a place he had just visited, planning to have the Court Physicians examine Kisara's condition.
The Court Physicians, who had just finished treating the unconscious Pharaoh, the sleeping Hayato, and the exhausted Shada, had no idea that they were about to get more work. There was no way they were getting off work today. The good news, however, was that Ancient Egyptian living habits involved sleeping late into the night anyway, so staying up late for overtime was not an issue.
Meanwhile, inside the Millennium Ring.
"I cannot accept!"
Amidst a mournful cry, the radiance of The Winged Dragon of Ra shone down, completely expelling Bakura's figure from this space.
Before Hayato's eyes, the illusion that Bakura, who had resided within the Millennium Ring, had constructed quickly dissipated as Bakura disappeared, revealing the original void within the Millennium Ring. This was the first time Hayato had seen the kind of sight Marik saw every day when he was trapped inside the Millennium Ring.
Three thousand years later, the evil soul residing within the Millennium Ring first killed Bakura's Father, who was obsessed and maddened by ancient objects. Then, when Bakura touched the Millennium Ring, it invaded the body of the still young Bakura at that time, occupying his mind, and incidentally killed Shadi, who had been guarding it for decades, turning Shadi into a spirit body.
It was precisely because Hayato knew this that, after obtaining the Millennium Ring, he first expelled the evil will within it. Although this was just a world of memory and could not change everything that would happen in the future three thousand years later, it could at least resolve the hidden danger for Hayato when he used the Millennium Ring, leaving him with no worries.
After all, even if Hayato's mind wasn't invaded by the Millennium Ring, it was hard to say if Bakura had other means, such as sharing vision, to steal information. So, just in case, Hayato completely eliminated Bakura within the Millennium Ring.
As one of the Millennium Items, the Millennium Ring itself did not possess the special ability of an interior space. This space was more so created by Bakura, imitating the Millennium Puzzle which hosted the Nameless Pharaoh's soul. It was specifically designed for spirit bodies and was not meant for normal people to stay in. Therefore, after clearing out Bakura's soul, Hayato planned to leave this place.
However, just as he closed his eyes, intending to return to the Outside World, the Psychic Ectoplasm detached itself from Hayato's body without his active control, appearing in this world of void.
"Hmm?" Hayato looked at the Psychic Ectoplasm with some surprise. "What happened? How did you run out by yourself?"
While speaking, Hayato was about to reach out and place his hand on the shoulder of the Psychic Ectoplasm, which looked exactly like him, to see what was going on with it. But what Hayato didn't expect was that his extended hand was suddenly slapped away by the Psychic Ectoplasm!?
Not only that, the Psychic Ectoplasm, which had previously acted like a puppet without wisdom, now quite human-like, crossed its arms over its chest, put on an arrogant expression, and began to speak:
"Hmph, who allowed you to touch my Jade Body, as the Pharaoh?"
Whether it was the expression when it spoke, or the unique arrogant tone, coupled with a face and voice exactly like his own, there was no way Hayato couldn't recognize that the Psychic Ectoplasm before him was simply that guy who had inexplicably dueled him before and called himself "Pharaoh".
No, continuing to use the general term "Pharaoh" to address this guy seemed a bit inappropriate now. Hayato, who had some suspicion about the identity of the person before him, wore an expression full of vigilance and questioned, "How did you intrude here, Meriamun!"
"Only now have you finally figured out who I truly am, idiot." Not evading either, the "Pharaoh" admitted right then and there that his identity was the same as what Hayato had suspected. He was the Master of this body of Hayato's three thousand years ago — Meriamun.
Hayato should have thought of this earlier. The name Meriamun was very strange. What qualification did a mere Commoner have to add the name of the god "Amun" to his name? But if he could become Pharaoh after the dynasty changed in the future, then it would be reasonable.
It's just that Hayato, who didn't know much about the history of Egypt, fundamentally didn't know which Pharaohs there were after the Eighteenth Dynasty, which was the current one, ended and the Nineteenth Dynasty began. He was even less clear about the Ancient Egypt history in this World of Duelists.
The "Pharaoh", or Meriamun, looked at Hayato with an annoyed expression. "Since you already know my name, on what grounds do you have the nerve to ask me how I 'intruded' here? Get this clear for me, you idiot, it was you who arbitrarily brought me and Nefertari, who should have been in the future, to this era, and committed an unforgivable sin, namely, without my consent, arbitrarily occupied my body!"
"The intruder is not me, but you!"
Without a doubt, Meriamun's aura gained the upper hand at this moment, and it also provided a basis for his previous making things difficult for Hayato. Just ask, if someone uninvited occupied your body, would you have a good temper?
However, when Hayato heard Meriamun's words, he just curled his lip and said carelessly, "Although I didn't intentionally choose this body of yours, it's also a fact that I took over your body because of the Dark Game that Bakura initiated."
"This point is indeed my fault, but I will not apologize."
Looking at the self-assured Hayato, Meriamun's lips curled up, and he smiled with a bit of disdain. "I guess you are not someone who would apologize to others either. No one understands you better than I do."
While speaking, Meriamun suddenly extended a hand and pushed Hayato in the chest while Hayato was completely defenseless.
The next moment, the world spun before Hayato's eyes. He only felt his mind detach from the Millennium Ring, and his line of sight rose all the way, coming to the sky above the Outside World.
Opening his eyes, Hayato found himself abruptly appearing before a Chessboard.
