"Because of [Offerings to the Doomed], I can't draw this turn, and I have no cards in my hand. I end my turn."
"At this moment, I activate my Trap Card-Time Seal!"
A talisman appeared above Dark Yugi's deck, bound tightly by several chains.
"Skip your next draw phase."
"He already had to go a turn without drawing because of that drawback. Now Dark Yugi looks constipated. This is even worse."
"Draw! I activate the effect of Darklord Marie in my graveyard. I recover 200 life points every turn."

"When did that get there? Was it Graceful Charity just now?"
"Exactly. I set one monster and end my turn."
He couldn't attack that card carelessly, or it might turn the tables and finish him off.
Watching the seal on his deck disappear, Dark Yugi could only end his turn in frustration.
"Draw!"
"Sorry." Tetsuhiro gave Dark Yugi a slightly apologetic look, with a strange hint of pity in his eyes. "This might be a little cruel to you, but you'll just have to blame your bad luck."
"I activate my other set card-Time Seal!"
"Ugh..." This time, not only Dark Yugi but the entire audience felt miserable. Boos rang out nonstop.
"Dirty! Absolutely filthy! How can this Li Tetsuhiro guy play so dirty?"
"This is so frustrating! I really want to beat him up and let it all out!"
"Me too. I heard he's a teacher his students love. How could anyone love someone like this? Did he force them?"
"Very possible. But what I heard is that all the Final Four contestants are his students. If he can train people that strong, there's no questioning his ability. It's just that his methods are a little... excessive."
