The alternative presented by the Creator.
You must return to Earth or become a monster card.
Otherwise, there was no way to remain in the Duel World, so if I went against either of the two choices, I would have to be severely punished.
“Ha… !”
I wanted to rebel with a duel, but I couldn’t.
Because the opponent is a god, he possesses unbelievable powers.
Cards that change according to the situation.
Not only was there no loss from the first five cards, it was like a Shining Draw every time a card was drawn.
Can you beat an opponent with cheat skills in a duel?
No matter how hard I racked my brain to find the answer, there was no solution.
“If I become a monster card, what kind of being will I become?”
“I can’t guarantee. However, you are a being with a strong dual soul. It will most likely be reborn as a strong card. “I can confirm that much.”
“If I were to be reincarnated, I would live in a past life…” No, are you being reincarnated with your current memories?”
“Unfortunately, all the memories you have will disappear. “This is because we cannot leave any memories from another world as long as they have the potential to have a negative impact on the Duel World.”
“Isn’t it okay to leave behind the memories after crossing over to the dual world?”
“This is not possible because there is no way to completely erase only specific memories.”
I frowned and glared at the Creator as if in protest.
I couldn’t understand why God couldn’t erase only part of a person’s memories when people also suffer from amnesia.
“It is far from the omnipotence of the God I know.”
“…… “No god, including me, can completely erase the memories of humans from other worlds.”
The creator god even criticizes other gods, saying that he cannot be incompetent alone.
I felt humanity in this part.
It seems that even gods have something called pride.
“Why?”
“If you have never once recalled what happened on Earth, partial memory extinction is possible. However, memories from Earth are deeply embedded in your memories. That’s why it can’t be erased.”
“Can’t we extract it separately?”
“Memories with holes only bring about a sense of discomfort. “If you don’t want to struggle with the pain of forgetting for the rest of your life, it’s better to quit or tear out your entire memory.”
“Okay… !”
I painfully know the hardships that I cannot recall even if I wanted to.
The last time I forgot my smartphone somewhere nearby, I almost went crazy with frustration.
But I can’t even imagine how I would feel if I lost all my memories.
But if you lose all your memories, it is no longer ‘me’.
In other words, if I wanted to remain as ‘me’, I should quietly return to Earth.
‘Either choice is cruel….’
Are you going to live forever separated from your loved ones?
Or will I give up on the existing ‘me’ and entrust the future to the new ‘me’?
Wow!
I only bit my molars tightly, but a fishy taste began to linger in my mouth.
The gums would not have burst or anything. Still, blood seemed to be flowing out of the mouth.
“I will give you as much time as you want to think about it.”
“This is a consideration that brings me to tears.”
Even when I scoffed, the Creator God did not respond or show any emotion.
He suddenly flinched, looked at me, and made a voice that showed impatience.
“…… Things have changed. “Make a decision right now.”
“You asked me to think about it slowly, but then you suddenly change your mind because it’s been so long since you said that?”
“Because something that shouldn’t be here is trying to come here.”
“Who on earth are you making such a fuss about?” ….”
Suddenly, someone came to mind.
The possibility may be low, but the thought that you never know may be lingering in your mind.
Even if my prediction was wrong, there was a high possibility that it was someone trying to save me.
Then there is only one thing I have to do.
I have to somehow bide my time.
“I will ask you if you have made up your mind.”
“I’m sorry, but I’m still thinking about it. “Give me a little more time.”
“It would be better to decide quickly. “I can’t wait any longer.”
“Don’t you know that it’s difficult to make a decision if you insist like that?”
“…… If necessary, you may have to lock your soul in a card.”
A voice of anger that feels calm and intimidating.
I guess he noticed that I was wasting time.
I don’t know anymore, so I can’t be consistent.
“If you can, try it. “Because I just won’t accept it.”
“Are you really trying to end the duel with me?”
“Okay. “Now there’s no need to bend over.”
“In that case, I will consider any further compromise meaningless and will do my best to exclude you.”
We must hold out until reinforcements arrive here.
The moment when I took out the card with such a single thought.
Jeok-!
A pure white gold was created behind the space where the God of Creation was standing.
‘It’s a crack so small that it’s difficult to see with the naked eye…’ ….’
Just when I thought I needed more time.
Contrary to my expectations, the cracks began to spread quickly.
Soon, the fragments of space fell to the floor, revealing a nostalgic face along with a new space.
“I never thought there would be a monster hiding its power from the eyes of the gods…….”
“Oh my? “If you took my most precious person away, you should have assumed the current situation.”
“…… “It was you, after all.”
“I’m really sorry for making you wait. Master.”
Finesse’s eyes, which had felt like a cold dagger just now, relaxed as soon as he saw me.
Finess runs towards me with a kind smile.
I was relieved to see her unleashing all the power she had shown before.
“Are you hurt anywhere?”
“I’m fine. What about you? “You were hurt a lot, right?”
“It is a wound that can be regenerated without any problem.”
Looking at Finesse, who shrugged her shoulders and even spread her wings, it seemed that her words were not empty.
Her motif is the phoenix. Since she is a creature said to be a symbol of immortality and rebirth, there was no need to worry about her from the beginning.
“How did you come here anyway?”
“It’s simple. The duelist that the master had defeated was brought back to life with ‘Resurrection of the Dead’. And then they killed him in a duel and I ended up coming here too.”
“Uh……. In other words, you killed Kim Jin-hyuk twice?”
“Yes!”
I felt scared when I saw Finesse answering with a bright smile.
It would have been unfair just to die in a duel, but he died again after being forcibly revived.
Of course, considering Kim Jin-hyuk’s personality, I would have thought it would be easy since he had beaten him once.
However, not only was Finesse not at his best, but he had also realized the Creator God’s trap and was prepared to be defeated.

In the end, Kim Jin-hyuk, who attacked her in ignorance, ended up on the path to her death once again.
‘Poor bastard… ….’
I felt pity that the Duelist King was used as a living sacrifice this year.
If Jinhyuk Kim had had good conditions, he would have been able to achieve various achievements in the duel world.
However, the Creator God summoned him and mercilessly abandoned him in order to use him as an outcast.
“…… “It was my mistake.”
“Huh?”
“I never thought there would be a card that wasn’t born in my hand.”
The body of the Creator God, made of light, began to distort.
The human form was gradually changing as the joints were bent here and there.
Soon, the Creator God, who changed his form, threw off his cloak of light.
“I will make everything right again with my own hands. Duelist and all cards.”
“Wow…. “I’m scared that I almost fell for the tricks of a monster like this.”
“It is impossible for a mere human being to evaluate God…” … “It’s blasphemous!”
The new appearance of the Creator God was so bizarre that I was speechless.
A thousand arms on the back, twenty eyes with different focuses, a mouth split into two and a missing nose.
The lower body was made up of flaccid tentacles, and the upper body was like a caterpillar, twisting hundreds of times like an armless body.
The true form of the creator god that can only be found in the Cthulhu mythology.
It certainly seemed like humans would never be able to understand God.
The outer appearance is beyond human imagination, so how can we know the inside?
“Master, please take it here.”
“This…” ?”
“This card originally belonged to the owner.”
“…… “I see.”
“It just so happened that I finally got around to telling it to you. Anyway, I hope you think of it as the final key to victory and use it well.”
“Yes, okay.”
As I received the precious card from Finesse, I placed it in the deck.
A fight that might be the last for me.
I had to risk everything in the duel.
“Stranger, are you ready?”
“Okay. “Let’s give it a try.”
“”Dual!!””
And so the final duel began.
