"Told you he'd win," Alexander said. 

"Yeah, but it was really close!" Megumi responded. "Vera looked like she could've won just at the next turn!" 

"Not really," Alexander said, shaking his head. "Sure, that one monster, Vorse Overlord, was really powerful, but in the end, it was just one monster." Alexander paused for a second before continuing, "If it were me, I would have at least placed a face-down Trap card." 

"Yeah, that sounds like you," Megumi said, nodding her head affirmatively. She then had a thought and said, "Hey, you could challenge the Ice King, right?" She looked at Alexander with excitement and continued, "I bet you could win that Duel, too!" 

"Don't get your hopes up," Alexander said. "You're talking about the Ice King here. Even I would have a tough time Dueling him, and I'm not sure I would be the one to come out on top." 

"Y-yeah, but you'd do it, right?" Megumi asked. 

"Were you not listening to a word I just said?" Alexander replied, the tone of his voice sounding like he was dealing with an idiot. "Yuji's skill is not to be underestimated. Careless actions like the ones we just saw in this Duel will end in defeat. One mistake and you're [i]toast[/i]." 

"Alright, [i]fine[/i]," Megumi said, pouting. "Coward," she muttered. 

"What was that?" Alexander asked. 

"Nothing!" Megumi responded quickly.
