The Higher Rank Part I

“Winner: Summoner Joker.”

The voice of an AI announced the decisive verdict. At the same time, the battlefield which was a rolling green field turned back into an empty pure-white room. Two men stood there, facing each other.

“Gah!! This is too much! How come his dragons are so tough!?”

A complaint came almost instantly from the loser as a tall figure of “Old man Pramote”, whom everyone in the Butterfly shop called “Uncle”, came out of the duel room with a frustrated expression. Joker, who was the winner, only had a dry smile on his face as he followed behind him.

“Everyone knew that already. You’re not the first to be burnt to crisps by those dragons, Uncle.”

“You were lucky that he didn’t take out his Royal Dragon. You’d be obliterated!”

“I don’t doubt one bit that he actually defeated Viper.”
