## Chapter 812: Zorc Necrophades
Before, Aknadin wanted Seto to become Pharaoh and wished to help him obtain sufficient strength, for which he intended to sacrifice Kisara. However, Seto's refusal to give up Kisara at that time greatly displeased Aknadin, and he ultimately had to abandon the idea.
But his displeasure at that time was merely a slight disappointment in Seto for valuing romantic feelings too much. Valuing feelings too much is one thing, but completely abandoning feelings is another. According to this Starfish-headed Kid who looks just like the Pharaoh, could it be that Seto now has nothing but "power" on his mind and doesn't think about women at all?!
He shouldn't do that! At least leave a descendant! If things continue like this, won't that Kid end up without an heir? Just what aspect of Seto's thought process did Bakura modify?!
If Seto becomes Pharaoh, will he not even marry a Royal Consort and just adopt some Kid as his Successor?! How could a Kid like that possibly do a good job as Pharaoh? The Kingdom would definitely fall into the hands of such a person. Wouldn't that situation be even worse than being ruined by Aknamkanon's son?!
Aknadin's face suddenly changed color, and he declared righteously, "I've thought about it carefully. Things like an innocent reputation are actually quite important.
"Alright, Pharaoh, I am willing to cooperate with you. Feel free to ask whatever you want. I will absolutely tell you everything I know without holding anything back. Furthermore, as long as you can correct Seto's thoughts, it doesn't matter even if you don't leave me with an innocent reputation."
Yugi turned his head and gave everyone an "OK" gesture.
"You're really something, Yugi," Joey Wheeler said, giving a thumbs-up in praise. Looking at Aknadin, he asked, "We've never even been to that Thief Village called K-something, let alone seen the tablet that's supposedly sealing Bakura's true form. First, tell us exactly what he is."
After reaching an agreement, Aknadin was much more cooperative than before. He immediately answered, "I guess you've already learned the truth behind the creation of the Millennium Items from various sources, right? Regarding that Evil Will under the tablet, we have to start from before I created the Millennium Items."
"A long time ago, so long ago that I hadn't even been born yet, a book that no one could decipher was passed down within the Kingdom. It was called the Millennium Spellbook. It is said to have flowed in from a Different Dimension and contains magical knowledge. Even when it couldn't be deciphered, it could still give rise to powerful strength, which is the magic cultivated by the Court Magicians."
"However, this situation continued until my appearance. I'm not boasting, but in deciphering the Millennium Spellbook, I completely surpassed everyone in the past, even leading the future by 500 years."
Mana was also a little surprised upon hearing this. "Huh? I was wondering why it's called the Millennium Spellbook. Is the origin of magic actually that book?"
"Mana-chan, when you were training magic, weren't you curious about who invented magic?" Téa asked, feeling a little strange.
Mana put her hands on her waist and said proudly, "Not at all. Do you remember how many slices of bread you ate?"
"Thirteen slices. I'm a Japanese food person."
"Oh, oh, Mana doesn't really like eating bread either. I prefer cake more."
Mana subconsciously started communication with Téa , but Dark Yugi still remembered the main point. "We can talk about sweets later. The key point is that book. Aknadin, continue."
"I see you completely don't understand the human heart, Pharaoh." Glancing at Téa and Mana, Aknadin showed an enigmatic smile and said contemptuously, "In short, I achieved a breakthrough from 0. For the first time, I deciphered a technique called 'Dark Alchemy' from the Millennium Spellbook."
"At that time, war was raging, and the Kingdom was in crisis. In order to obtain the power to protect the Kingdom, I chose to abandon my Royal Family identity to create the Millennium Items. However, creating the Millennium Items not only required me to create massacres and obtain resentful souls, but also required a powerful existence to provide power for the Millennium Items."
"That was the Wicked God from a Different Dimension that I communicated with through Alchemy. Its name is Zorc Necrophades. It is said that its power comes from the darkness that exists in the World. As long as darkness exists, the Wicked God's power will continuously generate, symbolizing infinite darkness. Therefore, it was most suitable as the source of power for the Millennium Items."
Malik heard this and impatiently interrupted Aknadin. "Yes, we now indeed know what that Evil Will is, but stop the boasting here. We don't have any plan to surrender to the opponent, so there's no need to know how amazing they are. Can't you just get straight to the point and tell us if there's any way to eliminate the opponent?"
Aknadin, however, shook his head. "A way to eliminate the opponent? Such a thing doesn't exist. It's precisely because I know this that even though that guy has been inciting me ever since I created the Millennium Items, I have never placed the Millennium Items on the tablet that seals it, as he wished."
"Even before, when I stood on its side as the Great Dark Priest, I was always resisting its control and did not remove the Millennium Eye." He paused, then looked at Dark Yugi again with a mocking expression. "The result is that because you few idiots walked right into his trap, that guy has now collected six Millennium Items on hand."
"Oh right, Seto also stole the Millennium Necklace, didn't he? Heh, Zorc has already collected seven Millennium Items. Well, it's over. It has already reached its end. You cannot win."
If he wasn't still tied up, Aknadin would have wanted to throw his hands up and just give up.
"You guy, do you only say discouraging words? Pharaoh, I suggest dragging this old thing out and beheading him immediately." Malik took the opportunity to instigate Dark Yugi.
Dark Yugi shook his head and did not listen to Malik's words. Instead, he looked at Aknadin, who had an indifferent expression, and said, "Whether we cannot win or not, I don't know. I only know that you absolutely must not give up until the very last moment."
Yugi also said from the side, "Although you want to show an indifferent appearance, Aknadin, you don't want Seto's future as Pharaoh to be destroyed, do you? I guess you definitely know some way that can bring us power."
Aknadin frowned, glanced at Yugi, and pursed his lips. "Tsk, what's with you, Kid? I always feel like you understand the human heart a bit too much. Just one look shows you're good material for engaging in schemes and persecuting people."
"Alright, I do indeed know a way that might be effective against the opponent, if you can accept it." He paused, then lowered his head to look down. "But before I take you somewhere, can't you untie me first?"
