A few days ago, in Northern Europe.
Harald was a duelist who only had a very brief role in 5DS, but left a deep impression on countless viewers. He had a handsome appearance, a silver haircut that showed that he was good at playing cards, and a calm and gentle manner like a gentleman.
He appeared in the animation as the captain of the "Team Ragnarok" participating in the WRGP competition. He was also the strongest opponent that the protagonist team, Team 5DS, encountered in the competition, except for the main villain Three Emperors of Iliaster.
The team he led was also considered to have a strong strength that was close to the ceiling level in the entire 5DS animation. Even if the protagonist team won the game in the end, they all played their trump cards, and they pulled out all the fake cards, cheats, and divine draws, plus various superb and meticulous tactical layouts and IQ games to win the victory with difficulty.
The duel with Harald was also the only time in the entire animation that Yusei used the two cheats "Majestic Star Dragon" and "Shooting Star Dragon" successively. Except for this game, Yusei always chose only one of the two cheats every time in the entire animation, and these two trump cards were often used to kill instantly. Only this time he played two trump cards in a row.
This also showed the strength of Team Ragnarok from the side.
And the reason why they were so special was that Team Ragnarok, like the protagonist group, is a duelist chosen by the extraordinary existence in Duel Monsters.
Just like the Crimso Dragon "Ultimaya Tzolkin" behind Yusei and others, the back of Team Ragnarok was the famous Norse gods in mythology: Thor, Loki, and Odin.
Among them, Harald was the holder of "Odin, Father of the Aesir". Just like the god he held, he was also an absolute leader in Team Ragnarok. It was he who found two other people with the same power as himself and assembled the team.
Odin, Father of the Aesir was the God Card passed down from generation to generation in the Harald family, and it had been in their family for a long, long time.As the heir of the family, Harald embarked on the path of cultivation when he was young, and worked hard to gain the recognition of Odin. After hard practice, he successfully gained Odin's recognition and opened the "Rune Eye" unique to the heir.
Odin was known as the omniscient and omnipotent god. It was said that the "Eye of Odin" that he usually covered up can see through everything. This ability seemed to be shared with the three selected duelists recognized by the Supreme God. Harald and his teammates could also see through everything through the "Rune Eye" like Odin in the myth.
Well… that's what the setting said, but it seemed to be useless in the duel.
Just like in the original timeline, Harald and his two teammates are preparing for the WRGP competition.
Until today, an uninvited guest arrived.
"Sir, you have a guest." It was Harald's butler who appeared at the door of the room, "He claims to be Colonel Austin. He said you know him?"
Harald had indeed been in the army for a period of time before forming Team Ragnarok, and the colonel was indeed an old acquaintance of his. He didn't think much about it and asked the butler to invite the other party in.
A moment later, the colonel he was familiar with appeared in his living room. Harald warmly greeted the old comrade and introduced his two teammates in Team Ragnarok to the colonel.
Colonel Austin's expression was very dull, and his eyes seemed a little empty. Harald's impression of the colonel should be a very talkative person who could handle any situation with ease. But now he looked like a machine.
"I heard that you left the army to join the duel monster business?" Colonel Austin asked.
"That's right." Harald admitted, "My two teammates and I are preparing for the upcoming WRGP competition. We will win."
"Very good, I believe you can do it." Colonel Austin smiled stiffly, "You showed extraordinary duel skills back then, and you have never lost in the army.
But this is exactly why I came to you."
Austin paused and said mysteriously: "I need to use your strength to fight some people…some enemies that can only be dealt with by dueling."
Harald was stunned for a moment and exchanged glances with his two teammates.
"You mean… do you need me to duel?"
"That's about right, but it's not an ordinary duel." Austin said, "But I promise, it will be a duel you will never forget, and the opponent you will face will be the most powerful opponent you have ever seen in your life."
"Oh?" Harald was interested, "It sounds interesting."
But he saw from the hint in his teammate Broder's eyes that the other party did not agree with him accepting this commission.
Broder was the brain of their team. His dueling style was known for its flexibility and variety. He was also the holder of the god of mischef Loki. Harald had always trusted his judgment.
So he quickly added: "But unfortunately, as you can see, we are a bit busy now. We are in the critical preparation stage for the WRGP competition, and I really can't get away…"
Colonel Austin didn't care about his refusal, just smiled and said: "I'm sorry, I may not have expressed it clearly just now, Harald.
Then let me correct it here."
He became serious and said word by word: "You will fight a powerful duelist you have never seen before, whether you like it or not.
In exchange, we will maximize your potential, Harald. You will gain new power that you can't even dream of, you will no longer need these teammates who hold you back, you will reach the top of the duel world alone and become the strongest duelist who controls God."
As he said, his empty eyes unconsciously turned scarlet, weird and deep, like a bottomless abyss.
"Of course, this is still a fact that will happen whether you like it or not."
The power contained in those eyes was enough to invade any spirit. Even a person with a steely will would have his spirit disintegrated under this red light, becoming a puppet at the mercy of others.
But this did not happen to the three members of Team Ragnarok.
Almost at the same time, a mark similar to the shape of "F" appeared in the eyes of the three people. Some invisible force was released like a force field, isolating the strange red light.
Rune Eye, the power given by the three Aesirs of the Star World.
"You are not Austin." Harald's Rune Eye stared directly at the man with evil intentions in front of him, and asked coldly, "Who are you?"
Seeing that the ability did not work, "Austin" curled his lips: "Wow, it is worthy of the power of the Aesir. Such a simple method is really ineffective?
Then let me introduce myself again."
As he spoke, "Austin's" body began to disintegrate. He turned into a large ball of black mist, and countless cards dragging black air. The cards and the black fog reassembled in midair until they transformed into the image of a man wearing a black leather jacket and sunglasses.
"Let me introduce myself again. My name is Mr. T, which means ‘Trueman'." The man pushed his sunglasses down and smiled softly, "I'm here to invite you to join the world of darkness."
