Yu-Gi-Oh!: Phobic Peptide Mad Dragon Executioner Dragon

Disperse the original source, and yin and yang are in harmony.

He transformed himself into a heavenly prison, imprisoning all the unruly villains.

—From *The Record of Enlightenment - Old Chapters*

"Woo——! Wu——!"

In the realm of the gods, a piercing alarm sounded.

"Emergency assembly! The King of Heavenly Prison is breaking through containment! Recall all angels!"

The giant struggled desperately, and the chains binding him broke apart inch by inch.

As if he were about to shatter the sky, each of his steps was accompanied by bursts of thunder.

"Proceed to the next stage of the sealing process ahead of schedule! Stop Him!"

The giant continued his march toward the temple in the center of the island.

Some angels attempted to intercept it from the front, while others began to work on sealing it.

Thicker and more numerous chains wrapped around His body, dragging Him little by little back to the place of His original seal.

Blue light surged from the giant's body as he began to struggle against the chains, resulting in a stalemate for a time.

"King of Heavenly Prison! You have abused your power for your own selfish desires, imposing your will upon all the heavens and myriad realms. Your crimes are now unforgivable! Surrender now!"

One of the angels called out to Him.

Upon hearing this, many angels clenched their fists, gritted their teeth, and stared intently at the King of Heavenly Prison.

Many of the elves they knew were either restrained, put into slumber, or even sealed away because of the King of Heavenly Prison.

"Selfish desires? Unforgivable sins? Hahahaha!"

Seeing the angels' indignant expressions, He smiled.

Even though his old friend repaired the basic world at the cost of his life, the fragile universe still could not support the activities of those powerful spirits.

And the balance that the King of Heavenly Prison maintained by exhausting his power was so insignificant in their eyes.

After laughing, as if the time had come, He stopped struggling.

"Since that's what you think, then you'll have to bear the consequences of losing the balance yourselves."

He did not resist as the chains wrapped around and dragged him.

In the last moment before being sealed, He suddenly whispered, "My story has come to an end."

His "performance" attracted almost all eyes, and no one noticed the farce taking place in the human world.

No one present could hear what He said; they simply took it as meaningless rambling.

-----------------

Xing Liang opened his eyes and saw an unfamiliar ceiling.

Where is this? Where is Huang Jinqing?

Before he could ask any more questions, the aches and pains spreading throughout his body made him gasp.

"hiss-"

Seeing that he had woken up, Xing Ya, who was by his bedside, quickly pressed the emergency call button on the bedside table.

"Doctor! He's awake!"

He is currently lying in a hospital bed.

Staring blankly at the medical staff rushing in and out and the crowds pouring into the ward to visit, he suddenly stretched out his hand and waved it twice in mid-air, muttering to himself.

"Disappeared…"

"What disappeared?"

Xing Ya, who was sobbing uncontrollably while clinging to him, looked up, wiped away her tears, and asked.

"I don't know... I just feel that something that should have been everywhere... it's gone..."

A sudden, inexplicable sadness welled up in Xing Liang's heart, and tears uncontrollably streamed down his face.

Xing Ya thought she had pressed on Xing Liang's wound and made him cry from the pain, so she quickly got up.

How strange, why am I crying?

He reached out to try and grab something, but couldn't touch anything.

A suffocating emptiness enveloped him.

But in the next moment, Sera and Xingya simultaneously grasped his hand.

"Teacher, you should tell me if you feel unwell."

"Brother, should I call the doctor over again?"

The old pastor, Albus, Axelcia, Mai… his gaze swept over the people around the hospital bed, and amidst their concerned looks, he slowly closed his eyes.

"Sorry for making everyone worried."

……

Night fell, and Xing Liang's hospital room finally returned to peace.

Although the doctor eventually sent everyone home on the grounds that "many more tests are needed" and "the patient needs to rest," otherwise they might have stayed overnight.

I really am loved and cared for.

Listening quietly to the soft hum of the instruments and the dripping of the IV, he turned his head, his dark pupils looking at the petite figure on the chair beside him.

How are you feeling? x2

The two spoke at the same time, then paused for a moment, and burst out laughing.

He wasn't surprised that the Chaos Dragon was here. He touched the other's clean little face with his bandaged hand and breathed a sigh of relief.

"It seems everything is fine now."

The Chaos Dragon gently placed its hand on his, and the two remained silent.

"Why did you go to save me?"

Finally, the Chaos Dragon broke the silence first.

"Why... I don't know."

Xing Liang looked up at the ceiling, the soft light from the bedside lamp casting shadows on half of his face.

"I don't consider myself a saint with overflowing kindness, nor do I have any sense of mission that I have to take on. How should I put it, I've always been a person who just gets by."

"I might do good deeds out of kindness, or I might do something stupid on impulse; I laugh and joke with family and friends, but I'm wary of strangers... Overall, I'm more rational than emotional when I do things, and I'm quite ordinary."

He turned his head again, looking into those purple-gold eyes, and gently touched her forehead with his finger.

"But, I don't know when it started, my rationality is often overwhelmed by my emotions, especially the moment I saw you lying in the prison van."

“I don’t know exactly what I was thinking at the time, but my body reacted before my brain could and I rushed to your side.”

Thinking back to that time, his irises began to contract and change color, emitting a faint green glow.

"When I picked you up, you said something to me while you were still half-conscious."

"What did you say?"

"The Chaos Dragon asked softly."

"You said, 'Don't leave me again,' and although your voice was very soft, I heard you very clearly."

Tiny arcs of electricity flashed across the ward.

"Guilt overwhelmed me in an instant, and sadness, anger... all sorts of negative emotions intertwined and broke my rationality."

"It's strange, isn't it? Our first meeting wasn't very pleasant, and we've only known each other for a few weeks, but I have a feeling that you are very important to me."

Inside the ward, everything returned to calm.

"Have we known each other for a long time?"

After a long silence, Xing Liang calmly looked at the Chaos Demon Dragon and asked.

"Was the one I dueled with in Ashsk the King of Heavenly Prison? Did He also recognize me?"

The Chaos Dragon was taken aback.

How did you discover that…?

“It was the defender who told me this during the day. Although he can’t speak, he took advantage of the fact that no one was in the ward and took out the King of Heavenly Prison and the Golden Lord from the card book and placed them in front of me at the same time. I guessed that someone else might have been fighting the Golden Lord at that time.”

"You still haven't answered my question, have you? I've forgotten a lot of important things?"

The Chaos Dragon's body trembled slightly, and its breathing became somewhat rapid.

"Can you tell me, Hikaru?"
