Yu-Gi-Oh! Fourseasons

"Principal, the fragments of those four Worlds have been put together in one class," the teacher who had dueled with You Dong said to the principal, who was drinking tea.

"Pfft!" Upon hearing this, the principal spat out all the tea in his mouth! "What?! The four of them got together?!" The principal slammed his hand on the table and stood up from his chair.

The teacher nodded and said, "Spring went to Class 12 because she didn't want to be too high-profile. Autumn went to Class 12 because of a kid named Gu Jun; that kid could have been in the top five, but he offended the examiner because of his overzealous behavior and was assigned to Class 12. Summer seems to have entered Class 12 because she was influenced by World, since she could already use World to change the order of the deck. As for Winter—she entered Class 12 because of a promise she made with Summer a year ago."

The principal sighed and said, "It seems we'll have to get a new teacher for Class 12!"

……

"Report! Teacher, I'm not late, am I?" On the first day of school, You Dong was late as usual. Standing at the classroom door, he looked at the teacher who had already arrived in the classroom with some fear.

"You're late on the first day of school! Give me a proper explanation!" The teacher dressed as a witch walked over from the podium and stared at You Dong.

You Dong stammered, "Well, that's because my sister didn't wake me up in time..."

The witch teacher tapped You Dong on the head and shouted, "Is studying your business or your sister's business?! Can't you be a little more motivated?!"

You Dong felt that the witch teacher's last sentence sounded familiar, but he still answered the first sentence: "Of course I know that studying is my business, but waking me up is my sister's business. My parents are not home, and only my sister can wake me up."

……

After You Dong returned home yesterday, there was nothing else about his parents except for a letter on the table.

The letter said they had to go out to handle something and might not be back for several years.

……

"Hahahahahahahahahaha..." Upon hearing You Dong's words, everyone in the class except for one boy and one girl burst into laughter.

You Dong's gaze bypassed the witch teacher and fell upon the students in the class, immediately spotting You Xia. "You Xia!" You Dong waved to You Xia.

Upon seeing this, You Xia immediately pretended to be someone she didn't know and completely ignored You Dong.

The teacher grabbed You Dong and said, "You ignore others when they talk to you. Didn't your parents teach you what basic respect is?"

You Dong turned his head and asked, "Um, Auntie, who are you? I still don't know."

The witch teacher was furious and shouted, "You actually called me 'Auntie'?! Am I that old?! And what's more! I'm your homeroom teacher and choreographer, Gui Hai!"

You Dong complained, "What kind of teacher dresses like that?"

Teacher Guihai was so angry he felt like his lungs were about to explode. He shouted, "What?! You have absolutely no respect for your elders! I challenge you to a duel!"

Upon hearing about the duel, You Dong immediately became excited, nodding vigorously: "Great! Let's go!"

Without saying a word, Teacher Guihai dragged You Dong toward the playground.

At this moment, You Xia caught up and said to You Dong, "You Dong, you can't do it! You're no match for Teacher Gui Hai."

You Dong said confidently, "Don't worry! I did beat the teacher during the exam, after all!"

You Xia poured cold water on You Dong's enthusiasm: "Is it possible that the teacher released 3300 liters of water?"

You Dong asked, puzzled, "What do you mean?"

You Xia explained, "I was watching you from the window during the exam. When [Siege Cannon Crocodile] attacked [Winter Dragon], the teacher didn't have [Monster Resurrection] in his hand, but rather the Quick-Play Spell Card [Emergency Reload], which reduces the ATK of one [Firearms Animal] on the field by 1000 and allows it to attack again. If the teacher had used it then, you, with only 800 Life Points, would have been finished."

You Dong: (????)っ

You Dong feels like he painstakingly unleashed a bunch of monsters, only to have them turn into a meteorite.

……

Talk is talk, jokes are jokes, but the duel is still necessary.

On the playground.

"Duel!" x2

Enraged, Gui Hai didn't care about anything else and immediately seized the initiative: "First strike is mine! My turn!"

"I activate the effect of [Ocean Spirit Red Carp] in my hand to Special Summon this monster to the field in Defense Position, and draw one card."

[Ocean Ghost Red Carp], Water attribute, Level 2, Effect/Tuner monster, Sea Beast type, Attack 100, Defense 100.

"Luck! Another one! I Special Summon [Red Carp] in Defense Position, and draw a card at the same time."

Next, I usually summon [Ocean Spirit Blue Seahorse]”

[Ocean Spirit Blue Seahorse], Water attribute, Level 3, Normal Monster, Sea Monster type, Attack 1200, Defense 1100.

"I will double-star all three monsters on the field!"

You Dong: "Is this the teacher's full power? This is so exciting! My turn, draw a card!"

"I activate the effect of [Winter Synchron] in my hand, banish this monster, and Special Summon two [Winter Tokens]."

[Winter Derivative], Water attribute, Level 1, Tuner monster, Machine type, Attack 0, Defense 0.

"I usually summon [hibernating snakes]."

"I'll level up [Hibernating Serpent] and [Winter Token]! Synchro Summon! Level 5! [Winter Ice Lance King]!"

"Next, I'll level up my Level 1 [Winter Token] and Level 5 [Ice Spear King]! Synchro Summon! Level 6! [Winter Axe Yeti] (Defense Position)!"

"I activate the effect of [Flying Axe Yeti]. When this monster is successfully summoned, it inflicts 1500 damage to the opponent!"

"Immediately afterwards, I activated the second effect of [Snowy Axe Monster] and added a [Snowy Axe] to my hand."

"I activate the Equip Spell Card [Snowy Axe] from my hand. This card can only be equipped to [Snowy Axe Monster], and the equipped monster gains 500 ATK."

"I activate the other effect of [Snowy Axe] to send this card to the Graveyard. The first effect of [Snowy Axe] can be activated again!"

"Ouch! Don't you know how to respect your elders? You hit 3000 damage right off the bat!" Gui Hai complained, shaking his arm which was numb from the Duel Disk's electric shock.

You Dong chuckled: "Hehe, a duel with a teacher isn't that simple. I'll set three cards face down, end of turn."

Yu Dong has 0 card in hand, 1 in front row, 3 in back row, 8000 life points, 1 in graveyard, and 1 banished cards.

2 Ghost Sea card in hand, 1 in front row, 2 in back row, 5000 Life Points, 3 in Graveyard, 0 banished cards.

Oni-kai: "My turn, draw a card!"

"I recover 500 base points for each card I draw after opening the face-down Continuous Trap Card [God's Grace]".

"I Special Summon [Red Carp] (Defense Position), draw one card."

"Because of the effect of [God's Grace], my base score has been restored to 500."

"I'll open the cover card [Bottle of Greed] again and draw a card."

"Because of the effect of [God's Grace], my base score has been restored to 500."

"Advance to Battle Rank! [Great Sea Dragon] Attacks [Flying Axe Snow Monster]!"

"When I activate the effect of [Great Sea Dragon], when I attack a monster in Defense Position, I inflict damage to my opponent equal to the difference between my ATK and that monster's DEF!"

You Dong suddenly smiled mysteriously, then opened his face-down card: "I'm opening my face-down card [Destruction Wheel] to destroy your [Great Sea Dragon] on the field. We'll both take 2800 damage! Teacher, this is a card I just drew from my card pack last night. What do you think? Do you like it?"

While making a funny face, Guihai calmly said, "Great! I love it! I'll cover three cards, end of turn!"

Yu Dong has 1 card in hand, 1 in front row, 2 in back row, 5200 life points, 1 in graveyard, and 1 banished cards.

0 Ghost Sea card in hand, 0 in front row, 4 in back row, 3200 Life Points, 4 in Graveyard, 0 banished cards.

Yu Dong: "My turn, draw a card! I Normal Summon [Winter Synchron]."

"Advance to Battle Rank! [Winter Synchron] Attacks [Red Carp]!"

Then, the [Flying Axe Yeti] attacks directly!

With his facial expressions on full display, Gui Hai sneered, "Tit for tat! I'll activate the [Destruction Wheel] card!"

"Then I activated the [Defense Wheel] card, negating the damage inflicted by the [Destruction Wheel]."

"Ouch! Teacher, don't you know anything about respecting the elderly and caring for the young?! We minors are your future!" You Dong imitated Gui Hai's words.

"End of round."

Yu Dong has 2 card in hand, 1 in front row, 2 in back row, 3100 life points, 2 in graveyard, and 1 banished cards.

"Because of the effect of [God's Grace], my base score has been restored to 500."

"I activate the effect of [Ocean Spirit Bigmouth Shark] in my hand, return two [Ocean Spirits] from my Graveyard to my hand, and can Special Summon them to the field."

[Ocean Ghost Bigmouth Shark], Water attribute, Level 7, Effect Monster, Marine type, Attack 2700, Defense 2500.

"I Special Summon two [Red Carp] (Defense Position), and draw two cards."

"Thanks to the effect of [God's Grace], my base score has been restored to 1000."

You Dong complained, "[God's Grace] is such a troublesome card!"

"Advance to Battle Rank! [Bigmouth Shark] Attacks [Winter Synchron]!"

"I activated the face-down card [Winter Carousel] and Special Summoned [Flying Axe Yeti]."

"It's no use. I activate the second effect of [Bigmouth Shark]: three times per turn, I can tame one [Ocean Ghost] monster on the field, attack once more, and inflict piercing damage on my opponent!"

You Dong slapped his forehead: "We're doomed!"

"Then I'll activate the effect again! [Giant Shark] Attack!"

"Ah—" You Dong's basic score dropped to zero, and he was defeated.

……

Gui Hai walked over, pulled You Dong up from the ground, flicked You Dong's head, and said, "If you dare to be late for my class again, you're dead," before leaving the playground.
