40. Cupid and Yubel
Duel Academy, commissary.
I heard that there were a number of new cards in the kiosk, so many students gathered here, and the booth, which was still quite spacious, was crowded.
The people who were fighting in the dueling arena heard that there was a new card, and they all ran here. Cards are the embodiment of the law in this world, and customers of the Pivot Tower can use the act of duel to understand the power contained in the cards, and if they can buy one or two Lea cards, they will make a lot of money.
"What a wonderful duel just now."
Walking on the way to the commissary, Toyo and the others were chatting happily.
"However, for the final blow, why use the Meteor Bow for a direct attack? There is only one Pikachu on the field in Misaka, so why don't you just hit it? Toyo asked curiously.
"Of course, it's because Pikachu is cute." Kamijo said with a smile as he turned his gaze to Pikachu, who was floating in the air.
"Pikachi~" Noticing Kamijo's gaze, Pikachu shouted happily at him. Under the influence of the peculiar laws of this world, it has become an existence similar to that of a dueling elf, and ordinary people can't see it at all, so it can appear freely around everyone.
"Look, such a cute Pikachu, can you bear to see it beaten?" On the road when hemp. Besides, what if he beats Pikachu and Mikoto Misaka summons thunder to slash him?
"That's right." Juyo turned his head to look at Pikachu with a cute face and smiled.
"It's not that I can't understand it, but if it were me, I'd definitely call it directly." Jushiro said and laughed.
As they spoke, the three of them walked to the commissary, but the black pressure in front of them made it impossible for them to approach the commissary.
"There are so many people~"
Ten generations exclaimed.
"yes, it looks like we're a little too late." John said helplessly.
Half an hour later, the crowd gathered in front of the commissary had dispersed, and all the new cards from the commissary had been sold out. Because they arrived too late, they didn't sell the new card packs.
"Forget it, go back." Because he didn't sell a new card pack, Shidai was a little disappointed.
"Hmm." The other two nodded.
"Gone." Ten generations were just about to step when they suddenly noticed that someone was watching him.
He turned his head curiously and saw a little boy with blond hair and blue eyes.
The little boy noticed that Juyo had noticed his gaze, smiled at him, and then quickly ran into the crowd and disappeared.
"Who's that?" Ten generations wondered, is there such a young child in their academy?
"I don't know." John said, he hadn't seen the boy either.
"That's Cupid."
He frowned. There are not only one or two customers in the Nexus Tower who stay at the Duel Academy, but Cupid is one of them.
"Cupid? It's such an interesting name, if I'm not mistaken, this should be the name of the little goddess of love in Roman mythology. John said.
"He's the god of love." Shangjo Dangma whispered.
"Alas!!" Both Toyo and John's eyes widened.
There are a lot of strange things in this academy, which is no secret among students. It's just that because of the influence of some kind of force, no one will publicize the situation here. However, it was still surprising that a god suddenly ran out.
"What do you know about Dangma, can you elaborate on it?" Juyo asked excitedly.
He didn't suspect that Uejo was cheating on him. Because Kamijo himself is also one of those strange things in this academy, a mysterious student whose origin no one knows, and he will be hidden from time to time.
"I don't know the details, anyway, you'd better not get too close to Cupid." Kamijo said with a frown. This cupid is quite famous in the central tower, as the goddess of love, he likes to match couples and help lovers eventually become married.
If it's just a matchmaking couple, this can be regarded as a good deed. But this Cupid is a conceptual god, and Cupid, who was born from the concept of love, has a very cheating setting. That is, unless he falls in love with someone, he will never really mature.
Because of this egg-hurting setting, although Cupid didn't know how old he was for a long time, his appearance and mind have always remained like a child. Cupid, who is always childish, almost all the couples he matches are not normal couples. Things like the Legend of the White Snake and A Chinese Ghost Story are pretty good, but those German orthopedics and Brokeback Mountain and the like can't bear to look at them directly.
(Here's an explanation for the innocent reader:
The Legend of the White Snake - Man and Beast, A Chinese Ghost Story - Man and Ghost,
German Orthopedics - Brother and Sister
Proness is the point, so hit a point
Brokeback Mountain: Same-sex)
All in all, because of the peculiar couples he matched, Cupid has also become a small celebrity in the Central Tower, and people who don't have a partner usually walk around him, so Kamijo still has some impression of Cupid.
What is he peeking at Ten Generations for? Could it be that he wanted to pull Shidai and John to stir up the foundation? Thinking of the rumors about Cupid circulating in the central tower, Kamijo shuddered.
"Anyway, you'd better stay away from him." Kamijo admonished Toyo and John. It's better to stay away from him as a deity like Cupid, and if you're not careful, it's a distortion of your sexual orientation.
"Oh." Toyo and John both nodded incomprehensibly, and although they didn't know why, they felt that Kamijo wouldn't hurt them.
The other side.
Cupid leaves the commissary and arrives at an abandoned research institute in the mountains behind the Duel Academy.
"Yubel, I just went to see it, and your lover is really good." Cupid said into the closed eyes in a culture tank.
Hearing Cupid's words, the eyes in the culture jar suddenly opened, revealing a breathtaking light.
"Ten generations are certainly the best."
"How are you recovering? Can the prototype be restored? Cupid asked. Yubel is a dueling elf he encounters by chance. Yubel is the lover of ten generations of previous lives, and this life is separated from ten generations for some reason. Cupid felt a genuine and deep love for Yubel, so he decided to help him.
(Yubel has no gender, and it is not appropriate to use "he" or "she", so use "it")
"With the current situation, it will take me about three months to fully recover." Ubel said.
"That's a bit slow." Cupid muttered. Yubel originally wanted to absorb the duel energy emitted by the students' duels to recover quickly, but this might affect the cultivation of the customers of the Central Tower, so he was stopped by Cupid.
