With just Yugi's mere magician?
Upon hearing this, Youyu couldn't help but feel admiration for this future antagonist once again.
Mere magician? It seems you have no idea how terrifying the "Magician" you speak of is. Being so arrogant, you won't even know how you died...
"My turn, draw!"
After drawing his card, Yugi coldly glanced at Paradox and said, "The Black Magic contains powerful abilities that can transcend time and twist dimensions. Underestimating such power can be troubling."
Paradox was dismissive: "That can be discussed only after you defeat me, the legendary Duel King."
"Then as you wish." Yugi drew a card from his hand, "I will use 'Dark Magician' on the field as a tribute, releasing the hidden Magic Power and summoning the Judge of Black Magic—
——Dark Eradicator Warlock, descend!"
The ground opened into a complex magic array, and purple-black magic power erupted from under Dark Magician's feet, lifting his dark robe.
A giant magic staff glimmering with purple light sliced through the surge of magic. The Dark Magician, now donning even more ample and sturdy robes, appeared on the field. He stepped forward, standing majestically and protectively before his master like a mountain.
[Dark Eradicator Warlock, ATK 2500]
Paradox frowned slightly: "A new Dark Magician..."
"Activating Magic Card from hand - Card Destruction." Yugi said, "Both players discard all cards in hand, and then draw the same number of cards."
A Magic Card appeared from thin air, its face radiating golden light. Almost simultaneously, the great staff of the Dark Eradicator Warlock filled with a purple glow, seemingly drawing on the ripples within the Magic Card, culminating in a purple magic projectile at the tip of the staff.
"Dark Eradicator Warlock's effect activation." Yugi stated, "When a player activates a Magic Card, it deals 1000 damage to the opponent! Black Magic Judgment!"
A purple-black projectile whistled across the field, exploding with a boom on Paradox's face. Smoke billowed skyward as shockwaves swept across the ground.
However, the tyrannical magic impact failed to hit directly, as it dissipated against a transparent shield that appeared not far before Paradox.
[Paradox, LP 3600]
"If that's the so-called power of 'Black Magic', then it's useless against me." Paradox smiled indifferently, "At that instant, I activated Trap Card - Damage Polarizer. It negates effect damage and both players draw a card."
After drawing a card, he continued to mock: "Whatever else you have, just bring it on. In the end, you'll find that before the power of 'Malefic', all of it is futile."
"Is that really so?" Yugi smiled, "What if I said that the 'Dark Eradicator Warlock' is just the prelude to unleashing the ultimate magic?"
"What?" Paradox's expression changed, taking another look at the imposing Dark Eradicator Warlock standing on the field.
Is this monster... merely a prelude as well?
"If you want to know, let me show you now, the ultimate power of Black Magic!"
Yugi raised a card high, with energy and violent magic pouring out of the card like a raging storm!
"Magic Card - Magicalized Fusion!"
Yugi thrust that card into the Duel Disc, and at that moment blue currents visibly emanated from the Duel Disc.
"Banishing from play the monsters on your field and graveyard used as Fusion Materials, conducting a Fusion Summon of Spellcaster-Type monsters!
I banish Dark Magician Girl on the field, Dark Eradicator Warlock, Dark Magician in the graveyard, Magic Guide Warrior·Defender, Magician's Valkyria—all five Spellcaster-Type monsters from play!
Five Spellcasters for the ultimate magic fusion!"
This shocked everyone present... even Youyu was included.
Youyu thought, damn King, you're this ruthless? Immediately using Magicalized Fusion?
Wasn't it just a few casual comments about your magician?
That's a bit much...
"Fivefold Fusion!?" Paradox thought of something, his face became grim instantly, "Could it be the legendary... terrible!"
In that brief moment, the forms of the five magicians took off one by one, turning into beams of magical light of different colors shooting into the sky. They converged, guided by the powerful spell of the Magic Card, seemingly summoning from the distant reaches of time and space an ultimate entity from the world of magicians!
"Fusion Summon!" Yugi shouted, "Breaking through the shackles of time and space, the ultimate magician who presides over all—
——Quintet Magician!!!"
Like a tornado, magic power stirred the Malefic realm, with the surging energy gradually forming a human shape. A noble and majestic mage stepped out from the explosive magic power, five-ringed magic arrays floating around him, each ring connecting to the other. He slowly opened his eyes, with clear and determined pupils that seemed to encompass the entire world.
[Quintet Magician, ATK 4500]
Paradox gritted his teeth, still making a last stand: "Open Set Card! Trap Card - Bottomless Trap Hole! When a monster above 1500 attack is summoned, it destroys and banishes it from play!"
"It's useless." Yugi said calmly.
Sure enough, the dimensional hole opened under the magician's feet before he could steady himself. Nevertheless, this ultimate mage merely shifted his eyelids, and with a commanding gaze, simply exuded a formidable presence as if issuing a "retreat" order, causing the hole to dissolve without a trace instantly.
"Quintet Magician cannot be destroyed by card effects, cannot be used as Fusion Material, and cannot be tributed."
In other words, whether it's the popular "Lava Golem" or Judai The Supreme King's trump card "Super Fusion," neither can overcome this ultimate mage.
"Now for Quintet Magician's effect!" Yugi raised his hand, "Upon successfully Fusion Summoning using five differently named magicians, destroy all cards on the opponent's field!"
In fact, without even needing the master's order, the magician's power was already fully charged.
The five-ringed array simultaneously activated, ring after ring, lighting up with a dangerous and splendid glow. Like clock hands on a dial, the magic circles began their slow rotation, boundless magic crashing across the ground like tidal waves.
It's a divine-like presence, something no ordinary creature can resist!
Malefic Cyber End Dragon let out a powerless wail, with the metal king of ultimate destructive power completely defenseless against this strike. The steel body was mercilessly torn apart by the ultimate spell.
Then, the entire dark world shattered into pieces under the unstoppable magical impact, plagued by cracks like an egg shell smashed to bits.
Quintet Magician's ultimate magic, an unwavering power that sweeps everything before it, flattening the entire field with absolute might, an unstoppable force.
"So this will be the final blow." Yugi waved his arm as the Millennium Pendant swayed with his motion.
"Quintet Magician, direct attack!!!"
The five rings once more activated, charging the magic power into the magician's staff. An overwhelming torrent of magic power buried Paradox, bringing an end to it all.
