Life Points remaining at 9500, with the Agent of Force still having an attack power of over 8000. It looks like the situation is very advantageous, and many among the spectators also seem to think that the chance of victory is still in Cola Sprite's hands.
However, as the person involved, she actually understands deep down that from the moment that wave of offense was neutralized, the opportunity had quietly slipped from her hands.
"My turn, draw a card!" Youyu immediately activated the card he drew, "Magic Card - Spellbook Inside the Pot! Both players draw three cards from their decks."
After drawing three cards, he added them to his hand and immediately pulled out one of them.
"Magic Card - Sage's Stone! When 'Dark Magician Girl' is present on your field, Special Summon 'Dark Magician' from the deck!"
A black magic array emerged, and a figure in a red robe flew straight out of the array, the robes fluttering as the figure gracefully landed on the field.
[Dark Magician, Attack Power 2500]
"Next is this card..."
Youyu raised a card in his hand, his tone suddenly elevating.
"Timaeus the Knight of Destiny—activate!"
Dazzling light burst from the card's surface, the sacred blue glow sweeping the entire field with its invisible might!
A roaring dragon emerged from the magic card, its ethereal form spiraling in mid-air. It flapped its wings, its flying body gradually transforming into a golden vortex.
The dragon's pressure descended upon the entire field, giving the illusion of one's chest being gripped, breath becoming erratic.
At this moment, all eyes were drawn to the dragon, amazed from the heart.
The NPCs were merely awe-struck by the dragon's oppressive power and noble stance, but the players who recognized this card were even more astonished.
"Timaeus the Knight of Destiny!" cried a player in surprise, "When did this card end up in Youyu-san's hands?"
"After the Doma arc ended, shouldn't the Legendary Dragon have returned to the Spirit Realm?"
"Amazing, how does Youyu-san have everything?"
Youyu continued: "According to Timaeus the Knight of Destiny's effect, use 'Dark Magician Girl' as Fusion Material to perform a Fusion Summon!
The great magician's disciple will don the knight's armor, calling upon infinite possibilities with the power of the Legendary Dragon and Black Magic!
Fusion Summon! Appear in a brand new form—
—Dark Magician Girl the Dragon Knight!"
The magical girl transformed into a beam of gold light that disappeared into the vortex in mid-air, reemerging straight down to the ground as a pillar of light. The body of the noble Legendary Dragon appeared from the pillar of light that reached the sky, a radiant sword cut through the light, revealing a knight-like steel armor, a magician girl holding a divine sword.
The giant dragon descended, its beating wings stirring a transparent storm. The girl lightly swung her longsword, slicing the storm into two like an invisible blade!
[Dark Magician Girl the Dragon Knight, Attack Power 2600]
"Next, Magic Card - 'Dark Magic Double Attack' activate!" Youyu played another card, "Until the end of the turn, the attack power of Dark Magician increases by the combined attack power of 'Dark Magician Girl' on the field and in the graveyard!
So Dark Magician's attack power increases by the attack power in my graveyard, which is 2000 points!"
[Dark Magician, Attack Power 2500 → Attack Power 4500]
"And then Equip Magic - The Sword in the Stone!" Youyu played another card, "Equip 'The Sword in the Stone' to Dark Magician Girl the Dragon Knight! By skipping my draw phase, the equipped monster's attack power doubles!" (Animation Card)
The legendary Sword in the Stone shot out, twisting through the air twice before landing in Dark Magician Girl's hands.
The girl, wearing the new outfit gifted by her master, holding the divine sword bestowed upon her, stood tall with pride, feeling that she had reached the peak of her life!
[Dark Magician Girl the Dragon Knight, Attack Power 2600 → Attack Power 5200]
The spectators exclaimed in surprise.
"An attack power of 4500 for Dark Magician, 5200 for Dark Magician Girl!"
"No, but in terms of attack power, isn't that 'The Agent of Force' still higher..."
But Youyu interrupted them at this time: "Dark Magician Girl the Dragon Knight, effect activate! Once per turn, by discarding a card from your hand, you can destroy a face-up card on the field!"
He sent a card from his hand to the graveyard.
"I will destroy... Field Magic - The Sanctuary in the Sky!"
Dark Magician Girl raised the sword in her hand, slashing across the air. Invisible ripples spread through the air, the sword qi mixed with Black Magic waves shot and shattered the sky.
The surging sword qi struck this sacred field. The white marble columns shattered under the sweep of the sword light, the unsupported palace collapsed with a rumble. Falling stones rained down like raindrops, the cloud and mist dissipated, the entire massive palace collapsed with a bang.
[The Agent of Force - Mars, Attack Power 8200 → Attack Power 0]
"...The Agent of Force - Mars will revert to its original state when the Field Magic 'The Sanctuary in the Sky' disappears," Cola Sprite said helplessly.
"Let's battle," Youyu said, "Dark Magician, attack 'The Agent of Force - Mars'!"
Dark Magician leaped into the air, accompanied by the shadow of his disciple, Dark Magician Girl. The large and small magic staffs overlapped, the magic power interweaving, like a roaring storm blasting forward.
The intersecting dark light currents pierced through the body of the Agent of Force, exploding violently in front of Cola Sprite. The angel let out a wretched moan, instantly torn to pieces. His warhammer was flung far away, wings shredded, black feathers danced like sprites in the hurricane.
[Cola Sprite, LP 9500 → LP 5000]
"Dark Magician Girl the Dragon Knight," Youyu raised his hand, "Direct attack on the player!"
The girl raised the sword in her hand. The knight's sword and the legendary Sword in the Stone crisscrossed, brewing the surging power of Black Magic, remotely locking onto Cola Sprite's position.
Timaeus opened his mouth, the divine power of the Legendary Dragon forming into a vortex, like an arrow on a bowstring ready to blast out at any time.
The sword, slashed down. The impact of the pitch-black spiral and Timaeus's breath of light merged together, blasting towards Cola Sprite head-on.
Black Dragon Burst!
Boom!!!
[Cola Sprite, LP 5000 → LP 0]
The girl was flipped onto her back by the explosive wave, landing on the ground.
Even though players can completely disable pain simulation, they still have to endure the impact of the 3D images.
A direct attack dealing over five thousand points of damage is quite intense; if the senses weren't blocked, it might have broken everything with just this blow.
Dark Magician Girl lightly landed back on the field together with the flapping Timaeus. The girl rode on the dragon's back, glancing back at her master with a look of pride as if saying "Please praise me, pat my head."
As the Duelist, Youyu stood there calmly, with the mighty dragon and the noble knightly girl behind him, a perfectly timed gentle breeze ruffled the hem of his clothing, adding a distinctive aura to him.
Cola Sprite sat from the perspective of the opponent, looking at this scene, and for a moment, a few words involuntarily floated in her heart—
—So...cool!
