Chapter 102

[Trickster Elf Swordsman: Attack Power 1400]

[Yugi Muto's hand cards: 6 → 5]

He then held up the blank card in his hand, saying, "It's time. Lend me your power!"

"The Spell Card [Heart of the Underdogs] is activated!"

The moment the Yugi's sound ended, the card instantly emitted a blinding light.

"What!?"

Dartz looked dumbfounded.

Because he saw the Yugi altering the cards right in front of him.

Suddenly, a pattern appeared on the blank card, and gradually became clearer.

In the end, the originally blank cards were completely transformed into cards as imagined in the Yugi.

Then the Yugi announced loudly, "[Heart of the Underdogs]'s effect is to sacrifice 2000 Life Points and one Warrior-type monster on your field as a tribute."

Bang!

The cannon fodder swordsman instantly turned into fragments and disappeared.

[Yugi Muto: LP3000→1000]

"Then banish up to three types of [Legendary Dragon] Spell Card from your hand and graveyard, and Special Summon [Legendary Knight] Monsters of the banished type from your hand, Deck, and Graveyard."

"I will banish [Eye of Timaeus] and [Fang of Critias] from my graveyard, and [Claws of Hemo] from my hand!"

[Yugi Muto's hand cards: 5 → 3]

The next moment, the three cards appeared on Yugi field, and the Legendary Dragon corresponding to those cards were summoned.

Then, a passage connecting to the Spirit World appeared overhead, and the three dragons ascended together to the clouds above that sky.

"Who is summoning us?"

"Our sleeping souls!"

Who is the one who awakened us?

Three mysterious voices came from the sky.

Upon closer listening, both Yugi and King could sense a hint of familiarity.

Just then, three bolts of lightning descended from the clouds and struck the ground in front of the Yugi.

Three knights wielding identical longswords appeared amidst the lightning, instantly elevating their status.

"Is that the true form of the nameless dragon!?"

Seeing her old rival's true form, Dartz was anything but calm.

Then they struck a pose and introduced themselves.

The three knights, green, blue, and red, are Timaeus, Críthea, and Heme, respectively, all corresponding to the colors of the Legendary Dragon.

[Legendary Knight Timaeus: Attack Power 2800]

[Legendary Knight Critias: Attack Power 2800]

[Legendary Knight Hermos: Attack Power 2800]

"Hmph, so what if they summon the true form of the nameless dragon? Their attack power is only 2800 points, which is no match for the [The Great Leviathan] who possesses infinite power!"

Dartz appeared completely unconcerned, but inside she was panicking terribly.

At this moment, the Yugi continued to announce, "Legendary Knight, Timaeus, Críthea, and Hermes' special effects activated!"

When this card is Special Summoned, you can target 1 face-up Spell/ Trap Card on the field; banish that face-up Spell/ Trap Card.

All three knights share this effect.

So they all brandished their longswords, performed a series of sword flourishes, and then simultaneously struck down on the barrier on the ground.

"Drink!"

Three sword energies instantly sliced through the barrier.

Boom boom boom--!

After reaching the boundary, the sword energy continued to slash upwards towards the semi-circular boundary wall.

"It's no use, the Selene, Queen of the Master Magicians won't be affected..."

Dartz hadn't finished speaking.

Click click click--!

The three sword energies converged at a single point on the boundary wall, instantly shattering the barrier.

"Impossible! The Selene, Queen of the Master Magicians has been..."

Seeing her usually invincible (but defeated) barrier shattered, Dartz's heart was completely thrown into chaos.

"The Selene, Queen of the Master Magicians can only be dispelled by Legendary Knight (although it's not written on the card, I said it has this effect, so it does), and then you will no longer be able to bind us."

"It's not over yet, I'll combine the three [Legendary Knight] into one!"

The Yugi points forward, with Timaeus at the center, where the three knights gather together to combine.

"Send three [Legendary Knight] to the Graveyard, and Special Summon the strongest Knight from the Extra Deck without Polymerization Spell!"

"Show yourself, [Timaeus the United Dragon]!"

The next moment, a giant knight clad in golden armor was born. The combined height of the two knights was twice that of the single knight, and their size also increased several times.

[Timaeus the United Dragon: Attack Power?]

"To think that it could summon even stronger monsters from there, and their attack power is still a question mark..."

Dartz felt increasingly uneasy.

The Yugi continues with its description. "[Timaeus the United Dragon]'s Attack and Defense are determined by its special effect."

This effect can only be activated during damage calculation in battle. This card's ATK and DEF become the same as the highest ATK of the monsters on the field.

"Damn it, not again!"

Dartz just dealt with the Phantom Knight, and now another monster with a similar effect has arrived.

"AIBO, let's end this battle!"

"Well, it's time to end this!"

The Yugi immediately launched an attack. "Go! [Timaeus the United Dragon], attack [The Great Leviathan]! Sword of Justice!"

The longsword in He Shenlong's hand ignited with flames, and his aura instantly rose to the level of that of a gay man in a sandwich.

[Timaeus the United Dragon: Attack Power? → ∞]

Seeing Dartz quickly shouted, "Don't even think about it! I activate the monster effect of [Gravekeeper's Guard] from my graveyard, banishing this card from my graveyard. This turn, negate one attack from your opponent's monsters, and negate the attack of [Timaeus the United Dragon]!"

"The useless [Timaeus the United Dragon] is unaffected by the effects of other cards!"

"Large sacs!?"

Let's end it here!

As soon as he finished speaking, He Shenlong raised his longsword and swung it towards the other side.

Chapter 142 The Real MVP

Seeing that his graveyard wasn't working, Dartz gritted his teeth and continued shouting, "You're something else! But I have one last trick up my sleeve. I'll activate the [Shield Warrior] monster effect from the graveyard again!"

During battle damage calculation, you can activate this effect by Yugi this card from your Graveyard. Monsters on your field cannot be destroyed by that battle.

"Now you must be out of options, right?"

"Hmm..."

That's true; the Yugi is now too late to protect the Divine Dragon.

"Fight it back, [The Great Leviathan]!"

Dartz waved her hand forward, and the giant snake head emerged from the passage once more. Then, it opened its mouth wide and a burst of blue flame shot out, instantly engulfing the Divine Dragon.

"Ughhhhhh--!!"

Bang!

The Divine Dragon was instantly blasted apart amidst screams of agony.

"Timaeus!"

The Yugi could only watch helplessly as it was destroyed.

Dartz's expression was smug as she chuckled and said, "Hmph, you have no monsters left on your field, you've used up your chance to summon monsters, and your life points are almost gone. You can't stop my next attack."

"Now it's truly all over. A new history is about to begin, Yugi Muto, the Nameless Pharaoh!"

But at that moment, the Yugi laughed instead, "Solvadocana!"

"Large sacs!?"

The Yugi then replied, "My battle phase isn't over yet!"

With that, he waved his arm and shouted, "Activate the face-down card! Trap Card [Soul Relay]!"

Special Summon 1 monster from your hand. While the monster Special Summoned by this effect is face-up on your field, you take 0 damage. When that monster leaves the field, your opponent wins the Duel.

"What?! In that case, wouldn't the conditions for victory and defeat be the same for both sides?"

Dartz was immediately taken aback.

"That's right, therefore I want to specially summon..."

The Yugi involves placing a card from your hand onto the Duel Disk.

"Show yourself, [Dark Magician Girl]!"

Buzz--!

After a flash of light, the Dark Magician Girl appeared before the Yugi.

[Dark Magician Girl: Attack Power 2000]

[Yugi Muto's hand cards: 3 → 2]

"Furthermore, [Dark Magician Girl]'s attack power increases by 300 points based on the number of [Dark Magician] present in the graveyard."

[Dark Magician Girl: Attack Power 2000 → 2300]

"Hmph, Yugi Muto, you think you can defeat me with this little bit of power? Before the [The Great Leviathan] who possesses infinite power, such a small fry cannot change the fact that you are defeated."

"[The Dark Magician Girl] is not some nobody, she is my most important companion!"

Hearing what the Yugi was saying, the Dark Magician Girl turned around.

"Um!"

He nodded at the Yugi with a determined look in his eyes.

"Here we come, Dartz, let's show you our indomitable will!"

What do you want to do?

The Yugi player then revealed the last face-down card at his feet, announcing, "Reveal face-down card, Trap Card [Indomitable Will] activated!"

If you control only 1 face-up monster, you can target that monster to activate this effect. That monster gains ATK equal to the lowest ATK monster your opponent controls until the end of this turn.

Originally, the card "Dragon Fusion" had a "Last Words" effect that could be activated, but in order to activate this card in this turn, the Yugi decided to forgo activating its effect.

"You only have one monster on your field, [The Great Leviathan], therefore [Dark Magician Girl]'s ATK is..."
