   Summary

   You're nothing special... except for the fact that you have (un)fortunate and insane luck. Scoring high on language and mathematics diagnostics by chance is one thing, but being praised alongside Domino's own teenage billionaire is another.

   Now you've caught Seto Kaiba's attention, and not in the good way. He's sworn to keep you in your place by challenging you to a competition. You can't turn him down, or you'll face emotional distress charges.
