# Chapter 440: Being the Master's Dog is the Greatest Honor
As Tila Muku's last 600 Life Points were completely cleared, the Dark Game covering the Duel Field also automatically began to dissipate.
However, before receding, they still had to execute the Penalty on the defeated party of the Duel — just as Tila Muku had said before, the soul of the losing party in this Duel would be stripped away.
"Damn it!" **Vampire Fraulein's** face was filled with unwillingness and anger. Although she had initiated the Dark Game herself, she fundamentally had no right to change the Dark Game's Rules. The defeated party had to receive Punishment.
Even when she was at full strength, **Vampire Fraulein** had no ability to resist the Dark Game. Much less now, as **Vampire Fraulein**, having deeply controlled Tila Muku before and shared her senses, had also endured the Fatal Combo that Hayato had just now executed, taking the brunt of it. In fact, it was already impressive that she, in her weakened state, could still maintain her form and hadn't been sent back into the Card.
However, amidst her frustration, **Vampire Fraulein** looked at the shrinking domain of dark magic power and felt a bit of relief.
"Ever since my Awakening, so that I wouldn't become a sacrifice of the Duel Monsters Game, and also to maximize my profit, I performed a 'Role Reversal' on the Master-Servant Relationship between myself and this woman."
"As a result, I, who originally existed merely as a servant and tool, instead gained freedom. I know deeply that this is what I must master, and as long as I possess this freedom, I can forever maintain happiness, even in the present!"
As **Vampire Fraulein** spoke, she actively flew towards her own Card, which was still placed on Tila Muku's Duel Disk!
Looking at Tila Muku, who was dazed from the continuous attacks, **Vampire Fraulein** laughed wildly: "Thanks to this control that goes deep into the soul! Just now, when the Dark Game began, as a safety measure, I didn't show myself and instead let you decide the bet. This caution embraced my freedom!"
"You shall bear this Penalty, my servant!"
Maintaining her pouncing motion, **Vampire Fraulein** approached her Card like a diver —
And then hit an iron plate?!
"Hey, you weren't thinking of using someone else as a scapegoat after losing the Duel, were you?" Hayato's voice came from behind **Vampire Fraulein**. "There was a Six-Year-Old (Nickname) who smiled very brightly who also pulled a trick like that in front of me before. How should I put it, that guy's end wasn't very good."
**Vampire Fraulein** turned around and once again looked towards "Dan Kuroto". However, this time, behind the "Dan Kuroto" in her eyes, one phantom after another manifested, whose mere existence was enough to make one forget their breathing out of fear. And a golden light flashed across "Dan Kuroto"'s chest.
Although **Vampire Fraulein** belonged to the quite rare self-awakened Card Spirits in this world, what she was facing was not a Monster, but Kami!
Obelisk and Osiris, led by Ra, extended a portion of their power from the Card Box on Hayato's body. Although it didn't affect reality in the slightest, in **Vampire Fraulein's** perception, it was as if the sky and earth instantly turned dark.
"The Dark Game's Rules changed?! No, that's not right! It's actually obeying you!?" Feeling the power that seemed as if it would crush her, **Vampire Fraulein** finally came to know what it was on "Dan Kuroto" that had been continuously attracting her before.
She had thought it was warm flames and eagerly flocked to it, but the result was actually a sun so vast it couldn't be ignored!
After her Awakening, although **Vampire Fraulein** had controlled Tila Muku to activate the Dark Game more than once, it wasn't for meaningless slaughter for fun. Instead, she carefully sought targets that could provide the greatest value without posing a threat to herself or the target. It was just that this time, she had targeted Hayato.
At this moment, she completely lacked the idea of taking Hayato's power for her own growth. All she had was pure fear, and the survival instinct born of unwillingness to lose her freedom just like this: "No, don't do that! I don't want to become a mindless tool again!"
"I am a Card Spirit residing within Duel Monsters. I am willing to become your power, and I absolutely will not bring up the idea of controlling you like I controlled this woman!"
"I can help you set up Dark Games, and then plunder life force from others to keep you eternally young!"
"Please, spare me!"
Hayato remained silent, not answering. He just coldly watched **Vampire Fraulein**, who was continuously demeaning her own dignity, desperately listing her advantages and what she could do, like a fisherman trying to sell his catch before it became stale and worthless.
However, although Hayato did not answer, other existences besides him did.
"What a shameless declaration!"
"It's just like willingly becoming a lapdog!"
"You actually want to become Aniki's dog!"
"That's too undignified!"
"You actually want to steal our position too!"
Hearing that **Vampire Fraulein** actually wanted to become Hayato's dog, the most excited ones were surprisingly the **Ojama** Brothers. Led by **Ojama Yellow**, the **Ojama** family jumped out. Having taken on the definition of "Hayato's lapdogs" since who knows when, they glared angrily at **Vampire Fraulein**, who wanted to surrender.
If other powerful Card Spirits were subdued by Hayato, they wouldn't be so excited. The main reason was that **Vampire Fraulein** was actually their peer, and between peers, there was fierce rivalry.
"Yakama shi!"
Although she appeared quite tough and numerous when she appeared, **Vampire Fraulein** just shouted slightly louder and bared her teeth, glaring with scarlet eyes. The **Ojama** family, this bunch of useless cards, unexpectedly chose to retreat, cling to Hayato's leg, and complain, hiding behind him and acting tough by association.
Looking at the **Ojama** family, who were like small fry, **Vampire Fraulein** was surprised that Hayato actually had Card Spirits too, but she didn't pay any attention to this bunch of useless cards with 0 ATK. Instead, she accepted the "being a dog" declaration: "Being the Master's dog is the greatest honor!"
But as soon as she finished speaking, the Card Spirits that appeared immediately after the **Ojama** family made **Vampire Fraulein's** expression somewhat sluggish.
**Rainbow Kuriboh**, **Performapal Sky Magician**, **Gaia the Fierce Knight**... One powerful Monster after another appeared, making **Vampire Fraulein** suddenly know something.
She had thought she could capitalize on being a rare Card Spirit and negotiate her price, but this person in front of her actually had such a large quantity of Card Spirits by his side, from weak normal monsters to powerful magicians, from small animals with various abilities to resolute warriors.
Her opponent fundamentally didn't lack a Card Spirit like her.
"Just what kind of person are you?"
Hayato raised his hand and gave a light finger snap, watching **Vampire Fraulein** be completely crushed by the Dark Game's Rules: "Just a Passing Duelist. Remember that."
