After the trip to Kaiba Land, Kaiba and Kisaragi returned to Domino City. Through Isono's mouth, the relationship between Kaiba and Kisaragi also became known throughout KaibaCorp.
That naturally included the relevant media and news outlets. Television and the internet were basically all promoting the matter. Kaiba did not care in the slightest. In fact, he even felt that the publicity was not intense enough. If Kisaragi had not stopped him, Kaiba probably would have launched a satellite into outer space just to advertise it.
Moreover, the fact that KaibaCorp's president and the Duel King were tying the knot also pushed KaibaCorp forward another step. Companies that wanted to cooperate with KaibaCorp came one after another, from all kinds of industries.
Because of that, Kaiba became even busier.
"But—why do I have to be trapped in the president's office too?!"
Kisaragi braced both hands against Kaiba's desk and stared at him.
Isono, standing off to the side, was already drenched in cold sweat. In his memory, no one had ever dared to slap President Kaiba's desk and question him to his face like this.
But Kaiba was not angry. He merely glanced at Isono beside him, and Isono immediately understood, leaving the president's office at once.
Once Isono had gone, Kaiba smiled. He pulled Kisaragi over to his seat, had her sit on his lap, and whispered beside her ear.
"Without you here, I don't have much motivation to work."
"Why did President Kaiba become like this after falling in love?!" Kisaragi thought, cold sweat running down her face.
"Big Brother, there's—"
At that moment, Mokuba came in. The moment he entered, he saw Kisaragi sitting on Kaiba's lap. Kisaragi immediately got up from Kaiba, while Kaiba also straightened his clothes.
Mokuba instantly covered his eyes.
"Big Brother, you two keep going! I'll stand guard at the door and make sure no one comes in!"
After saying that, Mokuba prepared to leave.
"Ahem!"
Kaiba coughed lightly, his expression turning cold.
"Come back. What is it?"
Seeing Kaiba like that, Kisaragi could not help complaining inwardly.
"This man changes faces way too fast."
"Big Brother, Industrial Illusions sent a letter. According to the letter, Pegasus wants to hold a duel tournament in Domino City five days from now, and he hopes Big Sis Kisaragi will attend as a special guest," Mokuba said.
The moment Kisaragi heard that, her spirits lifted.
"Isn't this the perfect chance for me to go out and get some fresh air?" Kisaragi thought.
"Boring. Having Kisaragi attend a small duel tournament like that is beneath her dignity. Mokuba, reply and tell them Kisaragi refuses to attend!"
Kaiba's words were like a bucket of cold water poured over Kisaragi's head.
"Hey, Kaiba!"
This time, Kisaragi changed the way she addressed him, and her tone became distinctly unfriendly.
"W-what is it, Kisaragi?"
Kaiba sensed a different kind of pressure coming from her.
"I'm going to participate in this tournament. You won't disagree, will you?"
Kisaragi narrowed her eyes and smiled at Kaiba, but there was no smile in her eyes.
Kaiba swallowed.
"If you want to go, then go. I'll have people accompany you," Kaiba said with a smile.
"Since you put it that way, I'll humbly accept, Seto!"
Kisaragi returned to her usual manner and prepared to leave the president's office.
"Kisaragi, where are you going?" Kaiba asked.
"To go home and prepare, of course."
After saying that, Kisaragi gave Kaiba a wink and left.
Kaiba could only sit back down in his office chair helplessly.
Mokuba, meanwhile, was seeing this side of his brother for the first time in his life and could not help secretly laughing.
Kaiba returned to his usual cold expression.
"What are you still snickering about? I happen to have several unfinished documents here. You'll finish them here today!"
"How could you?!"
After leaving the president's office, Kisaragi walked briskly through the corridors of KaibaCorp, preparing to leave the company.
Just then, Kisaragi felt the spirits inside her body begin to stir.
"What's going on? Why—"
While she was thinking, she suddenly saw a rift open in the sky outside the window. A crimson dragon emerged from the rift, then disappeared before long.
"Wasn't that the Crimson Dragon? Why did it appear in this world?"
Kisaragi did not understand. She began to suspect that her arrival in this world had caused a distortion in space-time.
"No, this isn't a space-time distortion."
Kisaragi suddenly thought of a certain theatrical anime film.
"Could Uncle Paradox be coming? And Pegasus is about to come to Domino City for a duel tournament. His target is Pegasus, while that Crimson Dragon must be bringing the protagonist of 5D's, Yusei Fudo, here."
Kisaragi thought silently.
"It looks like this duel tournament is going to be very interesting."
The corner of Kisaragi's mouth lifted into a smile.
The next day, Kisaragi rode in a KaibaCorp luxury car toward the company. Suddenly, a red shadow flashed past the side of the vehicle.
In that instant, Kisaragi's eyes met the eyes of the rider on the motorcycle for several seconds.
"Driver, stop the car!" Kisaragi said.
The motorcycle also stopped. The rider removed his helmet, revealing his true face.
"As expected. It's Yusei Fudo…"
Kisaragi thought that inwardly, but she pretended not to know him and said, "Young man, that motorcycle of yours looks pretty good. It doesn't seem like a model currently being sold on the market."
"Is that so? I modified it myself, so it wouldn't be available on the market," he said.
"I see. But judging from the way you look, you don't seem to be from this city. Did you come from somewhere else?" Kisaragi asked.
"Mm. That's right. I only arrived in this city yesterday. Sorry, but I have urgent business right now, so I can't stay here and chat," Yusei said.
"You're looking for someone, aren't you?" Kisaragi said in a low voice.
Yusei had just been about to leave, but when he heard those words, his steps paused. The dragon-head mark on his arm began to glow.
"How do you know that? Who exactly are you? I sense an unusual power from you," Yusei said solemnly.
"My name is Aoi Kisaragi. I am the Duel King of this era, and I'm also someone from KaibaCorp," Kisaragi said.
"Duel King?"
Yusei was startled. The reason for his shock was not that this girl was the Duel King, but that the information he had seen not long ago clearly stated that the Duel King of this era was Yugi Muto.
This was completely different from the history he knew.
"You don't believe me?" Kisaragi asked.
"The Duel King I know should be Yugi Muto. Why is it you?" Yusei said frankly.
"Looks like you aren't from this era. You must have crossed over from the future."
The moment Kisaragi said that, Yusei was shocked again.
"Judging from your expression, I guessed correctly. Last night, I saw a Crimson Dragon appear from the sky. I imagine you were inside the Crimson Dragon at the time."
