Yu-Gi-Oh!: Starting with an Underworld Deck, Depressing the World, Part 225
And indeed, that is the case.
As Jiang He suddenly sensed something and raised his hand, a small, silver, cylindrical key appeared in his hand without him even realizing it.
"That foul-mouthed prince is probably going to have trouble sleeping tonight."
Looking at the two keys in his hand, Jiang He smiled with satisfaction.
As for what Kaiser Zane Truesdale mentioned earlier about entering the professional dueling world, he really wasn't interested!
After all, he had no interest in experiencing the hectic lives of professional duelists!
Most importantly, the speed at which a professional duelist earns money can't even match the speed at which he extorts money from the Duel Academy...
Moreover, Jiang He remembered that there seemed to be several more suitable "fat sheep" transferring to the Duel Academy later!
"Instead of all that, let's go back and celebrate Lord Jiang He's victory!"
At that moment, Rei Saotome excitedly rushed to Jiang He's side, took his arm, and suggested...
"!!!" Then, the next second, Alexis Rhodes's forehead veins throbbed, and she grabbed him by the collar with a blank expression, expertly pulling him back!
However, she was quite supportive of Rei Saotome's proposal.
A moment later, in the living room of the luxurious cabin.
Jaden Yuki, that hot-blooded idiot, sat on the soft cloth floor, stuffing rice balls into his mouth with both hands, competing with the Chazz Princeton Manjoume next to him.
And Bastion Misawa, who was originally an honest man, seemed to have been assimilated, and started to eat and drink excessively.
Jiang He couldn't help but twitch at the sight, really wanting to throw these three idiots out. Then, he secretly winked at Camula, signaling the vampire maid to add extra wasabi to the remaining plum rice balls...
"..." Camula was taken aback.
That cunning little brat, he's playing this ruthlessly!
"Speaking of which, what exactly is the mysterious prize that Chancellor Sheppard mentioned for the winner of this World Duel Tournament?" At this moment, the short Syrus Truesdale, who was standing next to Jaden Yuki, suddenly asked curiously as if he had remembered something.
Upon hearing his words, Rei Saotome Alexis Rhodes, Tyranno Hassleberry, and the others couldn't help but show a hint of curiosity.
He looked at Jiang He.
They remembered that after Jiang He's duel with Sartorius, before returning to the luxurious cabin to celebrate, he seemed to have a private chat with the Chancellor Sheppard.
It seems to be referring to this mysterious prize.
"Indeed, I received an 'unexpected' mystery prize." Jiang He couldn't help but twitch his lips and said helplessly.
Even Yuki Judai, Chazz Princeton, and Bastion Misawa Daichi, who were stuffing Jaden Yuki into their mouths, paused slightly upon hearing this and looked curiously at Jiang He.
The next second, the three of them turned completely green!
As if they had tasted something extremely stimulating, they immediately grabbed the nearest drink bottle and Thud it down in Thud go! (Requesting flowers...)
"Huh? What's wrong with them?" Seeing the exaggerated commotion on the other side, Rei Saotome, standing next to Jiang He, asked in confusion. "They probably ate something bad in that mysterious prize prepared by Bald Chancellor Sheppard," Jiang He coughed, speaking without batting an eye.
He stated that the incident of eating wasabi had absolutely nothing to do with him, Jiang Daishanren!
If you want to settle accounts, go find that Chancellor Sheppard!
"The mystery prize prepared by Chancellor Sheppard... If that's the case, could all the food Aunt Dorothy made for this celebration be that mystery prize?!"
Upon hearing Jiang He's words, Alexis Rhodes, who was sitting next to him, was taken aback and guessed with a strange expression!
Chancellor Sheppard is way too stingy...!
The others immediately looked at Jiang He with questioning expressions.
Especially Jaden Yuki, that hot-blooded idiot, and Chazz Princeton and Bastion Misawa, their eyes burned with the flame of confirmation of an "enemy," as they looked at him with a look of urgency.
Jiang He nodded decisively, trying to shift the blame eastward!
That's right, it's all that bald-headed Chancellor Sheppard's fault!
"It seems we have to give Chancellor Sheppard a piece of our mind tonight!" Upon hearing this, Chazz Princeton clenched his fists, his expression filled with unbearable frustration.
Jaden Yuki and Bastion Misawa, standing nearby, also clenched their fists in unison in agreement!
This made Camula, who was dutifully performing her duties as a maid behind him, look at him with a strange expression. She could only think, "This cunning little brat is truly a master of manipulation; his mother opened the door for him, and he's arrived home!" Knock knock knock
Just then, a knocking sound suddenly came from outside the door.

"Could it be that foul-mouthed prince who's showing up at this hour...?"
Sensing a vaguely familiar presence outside the door, Jiang He muttered to himself, seemingly lost in thought. When Camula went to open the door, she quickly saw Prince Ojin with his short, purplish-red hair standing out!
The secretary Rindo, and three bodyguards in black followed beside her!
"I'm sorry to bother you at this time, but Prince Ojin needs to return to his country soon to handle some matters, and he really doesn't have any other time to come over." After seeing the situation inside the luxurious cabin, Secretary Rindo immediately apologized to Jiang He.
"One of the reasons I came here this time is that I heard about the specifics of the Sartorius of Light of Destruction from Bell '903' and came to express my gratitude." Prince Ojin, with his short, purplish-red hair, was unusually tactless this time, and instead, with a slightly awkward expression, sincerely thanked Jiang He.
He never imagined that he had been Brain Control and controlled by that Sartorius.
Jiang He accepted Rindo and his mother's request and defeated Sartorius in the Shadow Duel, thus saving him in a roundabout way.
Although there was an exchange of benefits involved, it's a fact that Jiang He saved him!
"No need for thanks, just don't forget to send over the final payment for the thank-you gift later." Jiang He waved his hand and said.
He stated that compared to the Prince Ojin's words of thanks, he preferred the promised rare cards and a portion of the reward funds!
"..." Prince Ojin's face darkened.
This guy is still infuriatingly ridiculous!
He was, after all, a prince of the Serpent God Kingdom, and later the king. Was he really that lacking in prestige?
At least give them some face!
"There's another very important matter, concerning Satellite SOLA, which I'd like to discuss with you privately!"
After holding back for a while with a dark expression, Prince Ojin, with his short, purplish-red hair, finally chose to change the subject and spoke to Jiang He.
If he could, he wouldn't want to say another word to this cunning and shrewd guy who could choke someone to death.
But there is indeed an important matter concerning the Serpent God Kingdom that I need to discuss with Jiang He!
We can only continue to endure it.
"Is it about Satellite SOLA?" Jiang He raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, exchanging glances with Alexis Rhodes and the others.
Then he nodded in the direction of Prince Ojin, agreeing.
After stepping out of the luxurious cabin, we arrived at the open space ahead, where the other party had moved to a private helicopter cabin!
The two sat down facing each other across the table.
"Now you can speak," Jiang He said directly to Prince Ojin after sitting down. He wasn't worried at all about whether the other party would try any tricks.
If this Prince Ojin truly harbored any "malice," then regardless of his Mark of the Crimson Dragon: Power of Quetzalcoatl, or the Sphere Kuriboh, he would have sensed it long ago.
The result just now was that although the foul-mouthed prince's expression was a bit awkward before, he seemed to be genuinely grateful to him. "Then, as the prince of the Kingdom of the Serpent God, I will formally discuss this with you!" Upon hearing this, the short, purplish-red Prince Ojin also looked at Jiang He seriously and said.
"If my information is correct, after defeating the Sartorius, besides the secure container, the other key used to activate the Satellite SOLA should also be in your hands, right?"
After hearing the details from Rindo and the three bodyguards, he checked the security device in the safe. He witnessed the other Satellite SOLA Key, which had originally been inside, vanish into particles right before his eyes, its whereabouts unknown! Considering the wager between the Sartorius Light of Destruction and Jiang He in the Shadow Duel, Prince Ojin immediately guessed that it was very likely in Jiang He's hands! Jiang He nodded without hesitation, directly taking out the two silver Satellite SOLA Key, gesturing for him to continue. "So that's how it is."
Upon seeing the two familiar keys, Prince Ojin, with his short, purplish-red hair, immediately frowned.
He then continued frankly to Jiang He, "After a remote discussion with Mother within the Serpent God Kingdom, we hope that, if possible, we can exchange one of the Satellite SOLA with you under other conditions." "To ensure that our Serpent God Kingdom royal family still retains ownership of at least one key!" As Prince Ojin spoke, his secretary, Rindo, who had been waiting to Jiang He two cups of coffee, added, "Without a secure container with control devices, the difference between having one 5.2 Satellite SOLA key and two keys shouldn't be that significant, right?"
"Our Serpent God Kingdom is willing to offer you conditions that will satisfy you in exchange." "Even including the condition that you marry into the royal family and become the Queen's wife." "Pfft!!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang He's eyes widened in surprise, and he spat out the coffee he was about to drink!
I gave that Prince Ojin a coffee face wash!
He was momentarily at a loss for words to refute it!
Good heavens, such outrageous conditions...?!
If he agrees, wouldn't he instantly become Prince Ojin's stepfather?

"That was just an inappropriate analogy used by Mother to show that the Serpent God Kingdom was determined to obtain the Satellite SOLA Key at all costs, not that it was really true!"
After being sprayed with coffee, Prince Ojin darkened as he wiped himself with a handkerchief and immediately began to explain.
The reason his secretary Rindo, specifically said that was at his mother's request.
The original quote was, "To negotiate with such a cunning and intelligent young man, you need to be more daring."
This way, we won't be taken advantage of too much.
It was also because his mother knew that he already had a girlfriend.
It's definitely impossible for him to actually marry into their Kingdom of the Serpent God family.
Otherwise, as the soon-to-be-crowned Kingdom of the Serpent God, Prince Ojin would be the first to disagree!
Jiang He had a vague idea of what the Kingdom of the Serpent God's queen was thinking.
From the way the princess asked her secretary, Rindo, to come to Jiang Daishanren for help and to make a request, it's clear that this princess is a shrewd and capable woman.
"Marrying into royalty? Forget about it, I have no interest in that, and I already have a girlfriend."
Jiang He shook his head and got straight to the point.
"Prince Ojin, you should just state directly what conditions the Kingdom of the Serpent God wants in exchange for a key."
Since they've already gone all out and unleashed such an outrageous move, Jiang Daishanren naturally can't remain silent.
Of course, most importantly, whether Jiang He had two keys or just one key, it really didn't make much difference...
Why not exchange something?
As for the Queen of the Kingdom of the Serpent God, who bore a striking resemblance to Prince Ojin, he really had no interest in her...
"Originally, in our Serpent God Kingdom, the only title above Grand Duke was King. However, if you wish, our Kingdom of the Serpent God is willing to specially establish for you the honorary title of Prince, above Grand Duke! It's almost equivalent to a King!"
Upon hearing this, Prince Ojin, with his short, purplish-red hair, breathed a slight sigh of relief and then spoke seriously to Jiang He.
He was genuinely afraid that Jiang He, this unpredictable guy, might absurdly insist on agreeing to marry into their royal family.
Then he'll really be numb.
"Although this title doesn't grant you true royal power, and is more of a nominal one, the status and meaning it represents are quite significant. It signifies that our Serpent God Kingdom will forever remain a steadfast ally, standing with you through thick and thin!"
"After all that talk, isn't it just about getting a verbal title to exchange for the key...?" Jiang He's lips twitched, and he looked at Prince Ojin and his secretary Rindo with a face full of black lines and complained.
Although the title was changed from Grand Duke when he was asked to save people to Honorary Prince, which is now comparable to a king.
But its name just sounds nicer.
It's not very useful at all!
As for the Serpent God Kingdom remaining a steadfast ally, sharing both advancement and retreat, Jiang He stated that as long as he possessed the key to Satellite SOLA, the Serpent God Kingdom would maintain its current superior status through the deterrent power of Satellite SOLA, in order to avoid degenerating into a small country.
