After confirming that he had won, he began gathering up his Magitech Cards.
But he had only used five Magitech Cards in this duel, so he finished collecting them in no time.
He gathered magical power at his fingertips and teased Gatomon on the card's surface. Only after Gatomon turned around in irritation and pointed her rear at him did he smile and place the entire deck into his Card Case.
By then, Mike Owen on the opposite side had also finished packing up.
Dark looked up at him and found that although Owen had been rather agitated at the moment the outcome was decided, he quickly regained his composure after the duel ended.
He had not actually interacted with Mike Owen very often, and he did not have a bad impression of him. At most, he found him rather interesting.
And after this brief three-turn duel, he realized that Owen's strength might be even greater than he had imagined.
That combination of High-Hanging Sword and Storm Blade had truly impressed him.
If he had not been lucky enough, and if Owen had not lacked understanding of Honedge, he really could not say whether he would have won.
After meeting Mike Owen's gaze, Dark placed a hand on the card table and said, "You let me win."
He then shut down the card table.
Mike Owen nodded at him with a solemn expression, then turned and walked down from the Duelist Platform.
Despite his defeat, his steps were unexpectedly light as he descended the stairs.
Of course, he could not let anyone else notice...
This "all-out defeat" might truly have been a good thing for him.
