[ He has always been more observant than people give him credit for. Yugi has spent much of his life alone, and that has given him a skill of being able to read people around him. It isn't difficult to see the flux of emotions that flicker across her face as she speaks. If anything, she really does believe she can summon the Duel Monsters. Is it like Lunafreya can? Why are there people who can do this out in Okinawa?
How much of the world really knows what the card game is based on? How much magic is just really left in the world? Yugi thought that magic was waning. Maybe it was just the magic he knew then.
If she's as observant as he thinks she is? Then, well, she has already called his bluff. She probably already knows he's trying to ask questions around the ones he really wants to. ]
You don't tell just any tourist this sort of thing. Isn't that right, Yuna? [ Yugi looks forward, with his head tilted slightly so his bangs obscure some of his face. ] You would probably just say that your local folklore said that your ancestors could commune with spirits native to the islands. They could summon them to help them fight off danger. But, it's the faith in traditions that keeps things like your temple going.
...or something along those lines. [ A huff of a laugh comes from him then. ] It means that you already think I'm going to believe that what you're saying is real. That people here still act as summoners and bring the spirits of the Duel Monsters to life. You probably live in harmony with them too, but, most people have forgotten and moved on. Maybe they never really knew and the tournament is a good way to teach everyone their heritage. Even if it's only in the context of a card game.
What I don't understand is why you think I'm going to believe it. Why are you telling me any of it?
