Chapter 779: Master And Apprentice
Manjome lay on his back, staring blankly at the ceiling of the duel arena, not even responding to the applause and shouts of the audience that rang in his ears.
He lost.
To be precise, he lost half a minute ago, but he was still trying to accept this fact.
He lost the duel he must not lose.
Manjome was very tired at the moment. He had never felt so exhausted before when he had worked overtime and trained all night long. His body lay on the ground as if it were weightless, and he didn't even want to move a finger. Every cell in his body had never been as hungry for rest as it was now.
The shouts from the audience seemed to be gradually fading away, and some of them were hard to hear clearly.
He didn't even dare to look at his mentor's expression, although he could probably imagine it.
Judai waved happily to the enthusiastic classmates around him.
According to the usual practice, no matter whether he won or lost after playing cards (although he has basically never lost so far), he would put on a standard "Yuki Judai-style" POSE and say "That was a fun Duel!"
But this time, seeing that Manjome was hopeless and looking like it was the end of the world even though he just lost a game of cards, he didn't do that.
Judai recalled a conversation he had with Yuei Vu in the past.
"Judai, you said, That was a fun Duel.' Although you may really think so, sometimes not all opponents may be willing to hear this."
Eh? Why? Judai blinked in confusion.
Dueling is such a fun thing, how could anyone not find it interesting?
Because no matter what, this is still a game of victory and defeat. Yuei Vu said, The winner will get as much satisfaction as the loser will have a corresponding sense of frustration.
And not everyone in the world has the time to enjoy a duel happily. Some duelists may have reasons why they have to win, and not everyone can afford to lose.
For many people, winning may be much more important than the duel itself. "
Little Judai was even more confused. Apparently, such a topic was too complicated for his simple little mind.
"Don't think too much about it if you don't understand." Yuei Vu touched his little jellyfish head, "Anyway, don't forget this, you will understand one day."
"oh oh."
Judai stepped forward and came to Manjome, touched his head, and smiled: "Although you seem to have won this time, you are so strong, Manjome! I didn't expect you to have a spirit as strong as the Light and Darkness Dragon' , it really scared me.
Hmph! Who wants to play with you next time?
As soon as he opened his mouth, he realized that this statement seemed a bit bad.
Simple-minded, hot-blooded idiot!
He cursed again, and then Manjome turned his head and left the scene angrily.
Im sorry, sensei.
Outside the academy, in a deserted place, Manjome stood in front of Kaiba with his head lowered.
"I failed."
Kaibas back was turned to him so that he couldnt see his expression.
"I said, failure is not allowed," Kaiba said coldly, with a tone of non-negotiability in his voice.
Manjome bit his lip, lowered his head, and said nothing.
From the moment he failed, he had more or less expected that he would be abandoned and expelled from the school, becoming a shame that neither his teacher nor his family wanted to mention again.
He was not ready to face this fact.
Kaiba seemed to be taking steps to leave.
Every time he took a step further, Manjome's heart sank a little lower.
But before he had gone far, Kaiba stopped for a moment.
Failure is not allowed, so you must keep trying until you succeed!
Manjome suddenly raised his head, his face full of surprise.
"Sensei!"
"Hmph, don't give me such an ugly expression." Kaiba snorted coldly, "If you don't even know how to deal with defeat, you are not worthy of being my student!"
After all, as a teacher, Kaiba has extremely rich experience in defeat.
Yes, yes! Sensei!
Manjome suppressed his joy and bowed vigorously. He didn't raise his head until his teacher's back disappeared from his sight.
Yuei Vu, who saw this scene from a dark place not far away, couldn't help but sigh softly.
From some aspects, this duo of master and apprentice is quite suitable.
