《Into The World Of Yu-Gi-Oh [Book 1]》Episode 4: Into the Hornet's Nest
Advertisement
The ship finally arrived at the duelist kingdom Island and everyone was excited to get off the ship and start dueling.
Mai was jumping on the balls of her feet while imaging the prize money in her hands and buying everything she ever wanted.
Icarus was standing next to Mai with a composed expression and thinking of a way to get to Mokuba before he escapes his tower.
Yugi was with his friends and thinking about his mission to save his grandfather's soul from Pegasus and putting a stop to him for good.
Joey was standing next to Yugi, thinking about his little sister and how the prize money will help his sister get her eye operation.
Everyone had their motives for dueling, whether its a noble reason or a selfish one. You can't truly judge someone for what or who they duel for.
Finally, duelist among duelist started leaving the ship. And the two stowaways had to casually leave the ship without getting caught which came easy for Téa and wasn't as simple for Tristan.
"Hey you don't be so nervous, you're our guest here," said the first guard
Tristan was stiff as a board before rambling about how was a guest and ran off.
Icarus laughed a bit at the scene "still funny" she mumbled and got off the ship with Mai.
"Come on hoddie, your to slow," Mai said while grabbing Icarus's wrist and pulled her towards the Castle.
Walking up the steps a bit behind Yugi and the gang the hooded duelist saw Téa point something out in the forests. Look to where she was pointing Icarus made eye contact with Bakura before he turned and disappeared into the forest.
Walking past Yugi's friend circle she heard Téa speak on how her mind must be seeing things.
Everyone was standing around the castle entrance as a big screen appeared with Peguses face as he greeted everyone for coming.
Ignoring him the hooded duelist look on outwards to the towers of the Castle, which one was Mokuba.
Just then she saw a small figure in the far left tower. Touching the side of her large blue glasses she zoomed into the window seeing Mokuba being forced into the room. While making a mental note she returned her glasses to their original state.
"So when the sky gets filled up with fireworks that's when the tournament shall begin!" And with that Pegasus was gone but not before looking directly at the hooded duelist and laughing.

"How exciting, I can't wait to beat everyone here" Mai cheered while getting glares around her which in turn I glared at them all back.
Yugi and his friend were talking about their plan to save grandpa and win the prize money. Just then the fireworks went off and they started to walk around the island to find an opponent to duel.
Walking near the forest end joey was super excited to duel and get start chips but téa and Tristan put him down by saying he needs to find an easy opponent. After walking a bit the conversation was changed to how the bug duelist threw Yugi's exodia cards overboard and joey promised to squash him like the bug he is.
Just then Yugi and the gang saw weevil standing near the forest ends with a smirk. In a rage, Joey ran to him to punch him but underwood just ran into the forest, leading them to a special area.
Everyone chased after the bug duelist but stopped when they entered a clearing in the forest.
"Welcome Yugi, to the hornet's nest" weevil laughed in his annoying voice
Yugi challenged the bug duelist to a duel. And Weevil accepts the challenge, and the ground begins to tremble as a huge arena rises up out of the earth. Joey says these aren't going to be like the duels back home! Weevil jumps onto one of the dueling platforms, which rises into position, and Yugi steps onto the other platform.
Weevil sees that Yugi only has one Star Chip, and says he'll eliminate Yugi from the tournament in this one duel. After that, everyone else will be easy pickings. But Yugi says he'll eliminate Weevil-this will be an all-or-nothing match for them both. He offers to put up his dueling deck along with his single Star Chip against Weevil's two Star Chips, and Weevil agrees.
Several other duelists arrive to watch the duel. They recognize Weevil Underwood, but who's that other guy? Joey tells them it's Yugi Muto, who beat Kaiba. And he's Yugi's best friend, Joey Wheeler, and these other two-they're trespassers. Téa and Tristan aren't pleased. The other duelists settle in eagerly to watch the Weevil-Yugi matchup.
Weevil begins the duel by playing Killer Needle (1200 ATK). Yugi counters with Mammoth Graveyard (1200 ATK), thinking his monster will match Weevil's, and attacks. But Mammoth Graveyard is destroyed, while Killer Needle survives. Yugi doesn't understand it-it should have been a stalemate.

Weevil explains-the field they're playing on is one part wasteland and one part forest, where bugs thrive. As long as Weevil plays his insect monsters in the forest area, they receive a field power bonus. Maybe if Yugi had been smart enough to steal the tournament's new rule book, like Weevil did, he'd be the one getting a field power bonus! Weevil's Killer Needle's attack is raised to 1560 points. Joey thinks it's cheating-Weevil has an unfair advantage. But Yami laughs, as Weevil's Killer Needle is also destroyed. Mammoth Graveyard received a field power bonus from the wasteland area, making its attack equal to Weevil's monster.
Weevil grumbles as Yugi explains that as soon as he saw the field display, he understood. Each type of monster has a field that it does best on, and the island contains every type of field imaginable. When Weevil led them to this spot, Yugi realized it was to gain a field advantage.
Weevil congratulates Yugi for putting it together, but says it won't be enough. He plays Hercules Beetle (1500 ATK, raised to 1950 by the field bonus).
Yugi's in a tough spot. Even though he now knows about the field power bonus, it's too late to rebuild his deck to take advantage of it. He plays Feral Imp (1300 ATK), and powers it up with the magic card Horn of the Unicorn, adding 700 points to its attack. But Weevil's Hercules Beetle destroys it-monsters with a field power bonus are resistant to any type of magic attack.
Joey worries that even Weevil's weakest bugs are going to be tough to beat with that field power bonus. Tristan adds that the field can't just be turned off, and Téa says Weevil's a no-good cheat.
Yugi thinks he'd better defend, and plays his next monster face-down in defense mode. Weevil plays Basic Insect (500 ATK, raised to 650 by the field bonus), then powers it up with Level 3 Laser Cannon, and Level 2 Power Boost. Yugi knows he's in trouble-Weevil's Basic Insect is so powerful, his defense monster won't stand a chance! Weevil attacks and Yugi's defense monster is destroyed.
Yugi plays another card face down. Another defense card, Weevil thinks, and he's going to keep up defensive. Setting his own face-down card, he says that the instant Yugi attacks, it will activate Weevil's trap. Now Yugi is completely powerless against him!
But Yugi thinks that Weevil's so busy bragging, he's not paying any attention to Yugi's moves. He slips a face-down card into the spell and trap zone, thinking he'll set a little trap of his own.
The boasting Weevil continues to summon monsters, saying he can attack at any time, while Yugi can only draw and wait. Yugi mentally urges Weevil to put all his monsters on the field-that's what he's counting on. Téa says to just look at Yugi-he's so confident up there! Joey agrees-when Yugi's dueling, it's like he becomes a totally different guy.
Weevil laughs. He's down to his last insect monster, and Yugi's about to be exterminated. Yugi draws Dark Magician, and thinks this is perfect-there's no way Weevil can resist this as a target. He plays Dark Magician in defense.
Weevil attacks with the powered-up Basic Insect. Yugi laughs. Weevil's not the only one who can set a trap! While Weevil was loading up his field with bug monsters, Yugi was preparing a special surprise-his Mirror Force trap card! Weevil tries to call off his attack, but it's too late. Mirror Force reflects Weevil's attack back on him, and destroys all of Weevil's monsters, reducing Weevil's life points to 555.
The gang cheer, while Weevil fumes. How dare Yugi obliterate his army of beautiful bugs! Yugi tells Weevil he's a liar and a cheat, but it was his overconfidence that allowed Yugi to get the best of him. Now his life points are low, and he's used up all his monsters.
Weevil laughs. He lied about that, he says-he still has his most formidable creature waiting in the wings!
Somewhere away from the duel, rumors and whispers were going around about weevil's and Yugi's duel. This caught Mai's attention and she smirked wanting to see the duel herself. Dragging Icarus with her, they both went to find the duel. Even too much of Icarus's complains.

An Unbound Soul
When Peter suffers a too-close encounter with a truck, he finds himself reborn in another world. At first glance it is a perfect fantasy land. There's magic to play with, elves singing in the forest and a hyperactive catgirl neighbour. There's even a System that lets him earn skills and level up. But it isn't long before he notices that the world is far too perfect. Just why is everyone so nice? Can Peter accept the alien morality of this world's self-proclaimed protector, or will he seek to overthrow her? Set after the events of A Lonely Dungeon, a few hundred years after the rebirth of civilization, this is a story about an earthling falling into Erryn's new world and the subsequent struggles of himself and Erryn to understand each other. It's a slow paced slice of life, and while there are pieces of action, don't expect any immediate grand conflict between Erryn and Peter. Published here, scribblehub and amazon. Two new chapters a week on Tuesdays and Fridays.
8 408They Shall Call Me EMPRESS (Cultivation Tales of an Isekai'ed Life Coach)
Meet Lynn Lee: yoga instructor, personal trainer, life coach, and smoothie enthusiast... Not a mystical martial artist. Lynn is nobody special, and yet she awakens to find herself in somebody else's body in a merciless medieval world of martial arts cultivators and superhuman muscle wizards. And, what's more, the quirky meditation technique she's been practicing for years somehow gives her an edge over most of the locals. The only question is... will Lynn survive long enough to take advantage of it? They Shall Call Me EMPRESS is my quirky take on the cultivation novel, a story of a fitness enthusiast Cali girl transported into a realm of immortal warriors and trying to survive... and maybe even thrive beyond her wildest imagination. Chapter updates on Sunday, Wednesday, and Friday. Plus, sometimes I accidentally upload chapters on Tuesdays, which will either stand in for the Wednesday chapter or be a weekly bonus chapter. It is a mystery! Please also check out my other novel, The Shadows Become Her

Most people think having powers would be amazing. Not Nate. If he had it his way, he’d never use them and pretend they weren’t there. His powers, though, seem to have other ideas. Uncontrolled powers sound problematic on their own, but when people can destroy entire city blocks with a wayward glance, they become a whole new issue entirely. Nate has always felt like he’s had wary eyes watching him, waiting for him to slip up. So far, he’s managed to just barely keep his head down, but when his powers force him to step into the spotlight, he finds himself caught up in the one life he never wanted; heroism. Now, will he find a way to accept the powers he blames for all his problems, or will he crumble under the pressure? Note: I primarily upload on my website on Sundays . I'll upload here regularly up to a day after the chapters go live on the main site. Vote for aka on TopWebFiction! Feel free to join the aka Discord.

Sometimes I wonder why the world isn't decorated with something as cool as magic... Why can't we manipulate the laws of the world? Why does the story about God sound too fake to be believed? Why the hope for this world to be saved from the bottom of everyone's heart can never be fulfilled... Then I landed on each conclusion from each of those questions... That humans are the most cunning, meanest and stupidest creatures who are most desperately expected to not have any power including magic itself. That it is not God that we should believe in, because they themselves do not believe in how disgusting human nature really is. That everyone's hope is not for the world to be saved, but for the world to be destroyed in order to save their own selves. That the world from the beginning, was not meant to be saved... (I frequently revise and update the use of sentences in the previous chapters without disturbing the original storyline. so sometimes it takes me a little longer to publish a new chapter.) I have the same novel posted on another website (Webnovel.com , creativenovels.com) with the same name (RELINQUISH)
