Hi again everyone, Chapter 17 is here as I promised to all of you. Enjoy~!
There both of them snuggled into their king-sized bed.
A few hours later, they woke up and had nothing to do so they decided to go back to the shop.
Since the electricity was back on, they were able to take the escalators up.
When they reached there, they saw Leroy on the shop counter.
"Hi Leroy." Aichi greeted
"Oh, welcome back you two. How can I help you?" Leroy asked
"Well, can we buy some booster packs if you're selling some?" Aichi asked
"Yes we are. And you don't have to pay for them. Here you are." Leroy said giving them 5 booster packs each.
"Oh no, we have to pay for this." Aichi said getting his wallet
"There's no need. Take these as a present for meeting us." Leroy stopped Aichi from getting his wallet
"Is it okay? Really?" Aichi asked
Leroy just gave a smile as a reply
"Thanks, Leroy." Aichi said
Aichi and Misaki opened one of their booster packs at the same time.
"I got some pretty normal but cards I haven't heard of before. What did you get Misaki?" Aichi asked looking at what Misaki got
Misaki also got some normal cards but cards they haven't heard of before.
"Leroy, are these some new cards?" Misaki asked
"Yes, of course. Haven't you heard of them?" Leroy said
"No we didn't. Can you tell us?" Both of them asked simultaneously
"Okay. To start off, the cards you got are from a clan named Link-joker. What is Link-joker if you ask? Well, they're a new clan like the other clans who have a special ability. Their special ability is to lock the opponents' cards." Leroy said
"Uhmm, excuse me but what is a 'lock'? Aichi asked
"You don't know that too? I guess I'll show you in a cardfight." Leroy said grabbing a deck under the counter
There were cardfighting tables in the shop so they did it there.
"Leroy, what about your Psyqualia?" Aichi asked
"Oh yeah, thanks for reminding me." Leroy said closing his eyes
Leroy closed his eyes for a few seconds and opened them again.
"It should be okay now." Leroy said
"What did you do?" Aichi wondered
"Oh yeah, you wouldn't know. If you activate your Psyqualia while closing your eyes, you can't use Psyqualia for the next match." Leroy replied
"Okay. Why don't we start now?" Aichi said
Leroy stood by the standing cardfight table and put his starting Vanguard.
"Stand up, Vanguard." "Stand up, true, Vanguard." Aichi and Leroy said at the same time.
"Black Ring Chain, Pleiades." Leroy said after he turned his starting vanguard.
"Wingal Liberator." Aichi said after he turned his starting Vanguard.
"Excuse me Leroy but did you just say true? Wasn't what you said before 'le'?" Aichi asked
"Oh, that. I say that to show that I'm using Psyqualia." Leroy replied
"Oh, okay." Aichi said
As normal, the first part of cardfights are kinda boring so we'll skip to the part where they're both ready to breakride.
Aichi was leading in damage with 4 while Leroy had 5 reminding him of their last battle.
"Okay, Aichi. I think this shall be the final turn." Leroy said
"H-how can you be so sure?" Aichi asked
"Because right now, I'll show you what a lock is." Leroy said drawing a card from his deck
"I breakride! Star-Vader, Multiverse Dragon! Activating breakride skill to lock one of your rearguards in each row. And I also activate Multiverse Dragon's Limit Break! I counterblast 1 card to lock one more of your rearguards. I choose Zoomdown Eagle. So that's two intercepts locked and 1 supporter as well." Leroy said just murmuring the last part.
"Krypton will attack your vanguard with a boost from Binary Star." Leroy said
"I'll intercept with Zoomdown Eagle." Aichi said and was about to do so but was stopped by Leroy
"You can't do that Aichi since your card is locked. Locked cards can't do anything and can only be unlocked by a skill or by the end of your turn." Leroy said
Aichi was taken by surprise by the skill.
He had to check for a damage trigger and got nothing.
"Next up, Multiverse Dragon is coming in with a boost from Aurora Eagle for a total of 36000 power." Leroy said pointing at Aichi's Gancelot Zenith.
"No guard." Aichi said then thought "If I don't get a heal trigger here, I'm done."
"First Check, Second check. I got a critical trigger I'm giving the critical to Multiverse Dragon and the power boost to my standing Krypton." Leroy said
"Okay then, two heal triggers." Aichi thought
He checked for the first card and got a heal trigger and healed 1 damage but he hesitated to check the next card.
He gathered up courage and got no trigger.
"You got me, again." Aichi said
"Hmmm, I think you can still improve your deck Aichi. Just open those 4 booster packs that you didn't open yet and you might get lucky." Leroy said
Aichi and Misaki were so focused on the cardfight that they forgot they still had 4 booster packs to open.
They opened their next booster pack and Aichi got a card named "Dragonic Overlord "The Яe-birth"
Leroy noticed and he walked closer to them and told Aichi "You're really lucky, Aichi. Too bad you can't use it in your deck though."
"It's okay. I'll just give it to Kai." Aichi said
Meanwhile Misaki got pretty normal cards.
Aichi and Misaki opened their next booster packs and Aichi got pretty normal cards but this time it was Misaki who got lucky. She got a card named Goddess of the Shield, Aegis.
"Woah, it's one of those cards. The cards that can use the ability 'Quintet Wall'" Leroy said with a shocked face
"What's a 'Quintet Wall'?" Both of them asked
"Well, just read its ability." Leroy said giving a smile
Aichi and Misaki read the card and they find the ability useful.
"You don't always have to use Perfect Guards to make good guards you know." Leroy said "With a 'Quintet Wall' you can create a good defense without using a perfect guard." Leroy added
Aichi and Misaki opened the rest of the packs and got normal cards.
Aichi and Misaki were gonna go back to their hotel but Leroy shouted from behind "Wait a minute! Aichi!"
"Hmmm? What is it, Leroy?" Aichi asked
"Well, these cards are for you. Take them as a gift from us for your stay." Leroy said
"Okay, thanks." Misaki said
Aichi and Misaki went back to their hotel to eat dinner, and take a shower.
After Aichi took a shower, he looked at the cards that Leroy gave them. There were 5 cards in total.
"They're great cards, don't you think?" Misaki said
"Yes they are." Aichi said
Then someone knocked at their door. Aichi opened the door and he and Misaki were surprised to see 4 friends from Japan.
That's it everyone, finished Chapter 17 of 'You're my true Vanguard.' Some people are beginning to ask me why is this fanfic titled 'You're my true Vanguard.' Well, all of you will figure it out soon enough. Also who do you think those 4 friends were? Just wait for them next chapter ^_^

Elena: *grabs Leroy* Where have you been?
Leroy: Elena? Please let me go.
Elena: Oh, don't tell me you forgot about IT.
Leroy: No I haven't but it's tiring making it.
Elena: Tiring, huh? You know how tired I am making it all by myself?
Leroy: Ummm, no?
Elena: *goes berserk*
Leroy: *touches forehead*
Elena: *blushes before fainting*
Leroy: Well, as I was saying-
Jin: Stop! I think you don't have to say it, right? It's a surprise for next chapter.
