Chapter 113
As he spoke, he pointed to the dragon knight above.
"I will discard [Apple Magician Girl] and activate the special ability of [Dragon Knight Black Magic Girl]!"
Once per turn, you can send 1 card from your hand to the Graveyard, then target 1 face-up card on the field and destroy it. This effect can also be activated during your opponent's turn.
[Yugi Muto's hand cards: 2 → 1]
"Again!?"
"What I'm going to destroy this time is the Field Spell [Golden Castle of Stromberg]!"
As soon as the Yugi was finished, the dragon opened its mouth and spewed a breath of dragon fire at the other side.
Boom--!!
The golden castle was instantly destroyed by the breath attack.
"This renders all the methods used to protect Young Rehn ineffective."
Then Yugi waved his hand and shouted, "Go! [Dragon Knight Dark Magician Girl] Attack! Black Dragon Burst!"
The dragon opened its mouth again, and its breath spewed out once more. At the same time, the girl swung the holy sword in her hand, and streams of light also gushed from the sword.
The two energies merged in mid-air to form a powerful attack.
Boom--!!!
The light beam instantly engulfed Iron Hans.
"Hmm..."
The blinding light made it impossible for Rehn to open his eyes.
[Rehn Wilson: LP4000→2600]
Soon, the boy opened his eyes again.
The light had dissipated, and the monster on his field had also disappeared.
Then the Yugi continued, "Now that there are no monsters on Young Rehn's field, I'll use [Berry Magician Girl] to attack you directly."
"Waaaaah--!!"
The little girl, still sucking on her pacifier, skipped and hopped across to the other side, then swung her toy wand at Rehn.
"Well..."
The boy awkwardly endured the young girl's "aggressive" attack, which dealt him "up to" 400 points of damage.
[Rehn Wilson: LP2600→2200]
"Finally, I'll set one more card face down, and the turn ends."
[Yugi Muto's hand cards: 1 → 0]
"Brother Yugi is amazing! He turned the tide of the game in just one round."
"But for my brother's sake, I absolutely cannot lose to you!"
Rehn mustered his courage and forcefully pulled out a card.
"I'm betting on this card, I'm going to draw it!"
[Rehn Wilson's hand cards: 3→4]
Upon seeing the card in his hand, the boy's body stiffened. "Alright! This card..."
He played the card without hesitation.
"The Spell Card [Vessel of Apathy] is activated!"
Select a total of 2 cards from either your or your opponent's graveyard and return them to their owner's deck. After this card is activated, it is banished from the Yugi without being sent to the graveyard.
[Rehn Wilson's hand cards: 4→3]
"I'm returning [Golden Castle of Stromberg] from my own graveyard and [Dark Magician] from Brother Yugi's graveyard to my deck."
Seeing this, the Yugi raised an eyebrow. "Is reclaiming the arena to allow for a new search?"
While thinking this, I put my cards back into the deck according to their effects.
The next moment, just as expected.
Rehn picked up another card from his hand and said, "I'll activate the monster effect of [Gravekeeper's Spy] from my hand again."
You can activate this effect by discarding this card from your hand. Add 1 [Golden Castle of Stromberg] from your Deck to your hand.
The cards he had just retrieved from his deck were retrieved and returned to his hand.
"Activate the Field Spell [Golden Castle of Stromberg] once more!"
And so, the golden palace reappeared.
[Rehn Wilson's hand cards: 3→2]
This time, the Yugi couldn't be stopped, but it's not a big problem.
But next, they'll have to face the monsters that are pulled out of the arena.
The boy raised his right hand and shouted, "I'll activate the effect of the Field Spell [Golden Castle of Stromberg] once more! Special Summon [Witch of the Black Forest] from my Deck, the card whose name is written on this card!"
With a flash of light on the card, a witch dressed in a deep red evening gown was projected onto the screen.
[Witch of the Black Forest: Attack Power 2600]
Looking at the witch before him, he continued, "And [Witch of the Black Forest]'s special effect is activated!"
Once per turn, if [Golden Castle of Stromberg] is in the field zone, you can target 1 card on the field; destroy that card, and this card can attack monsters up to 2 times during the same Battle Phase this turn.
"What I want to destroy is, of course, the [Dragon Knight Dark Magician Girl]."
The witch spread her five fingers, and a stream of magical light shot towards the dragon knight.
Bang--!!
The dragon knight was instantly pulverized.
"The Dark Magician Girl..."
"Rehn is really amazing. It's not easy to fight AIBO like this."
Although he used the sea at the start of the Yugi, if he had activated the Legendary Dragon right from the beginning, then Rehn would have been constantly pressured and beaten.
As long as he keeps using the Dragon Knight to blast the field, his opponent will probably have no dueling experience whatsoever.
"It's about to start, Brother Yugi!"
Rehn now dares to launch attacks boldly.
"[The Witch of the Black Forest] attacks [The Berry Magician Girl], Destiny Crush!"
The witch opened her five fingers again, and red magic gathered in her hands.
Seeing Yugi, Yugi quickly shouted, "At this moment, the special effect of [Berry Magician Girl], which has been selected as the target of the attack, activates, summoning an ally from the deck!"
"Come on, [Chocolate Magician Girl]!"
The young girl then flicked her wand, and a portal was barely summoned, from which a magician girl dressed in blue emerged.
[Chocolate Magician Girl: Attack Power 1600]
[Berry Magician Girl: Defense 400]
"I'm changing the monster to Defense Position and summoning a new [Magical Girl] from my Deck, but that means I can launch two attacks! Battle continues!"
Then, a stream of red light shot towards the little girl.
"Waaaaah--!!"
The little girl was so frightened that she jumped up and down.
Bang--!!
She was quickly attacked and shattered.
"At this very moment, another effect of [Witch of the Black Forest] activates!"
When this card destroys an opponent's monster by battle, you can target 1 face-up monster you control; that monster gains 400 ATK.
[Witch of the Black Forest: Attack power 2600 → 3000]
Chapter 158 Bullying Children
"This moment!"
Upon suddenly hearing the word "Yugi, "Rehn's body trembled.
"I'm activating another effect of [Magical Kuriboh] from the graveyard!"
This effect can be activated if a face-up Spellcaster monster you control is destroyed by battle or an opponent's card effect. Add this card from your Graveyard to your hand.
[Yugi Muto's hand cards: 0→1]
The boy fell silent as he watched the Yugi retrieve the card from the graveyard.
He hesitated whether he should attack, since if the Yugi was damaged, he could summon the Dark Magician from the deck or revive the Dark Magician Girl from the graveyard.
However, considering the attack power of both sides' monsters, there's not so much to worry about. Plus, with the Candy House effect, you can blow up the opponent's monsters at any time.
Rehn: The advantage is in my hands!
Without further hesitation, he declared, "Go! [Witch of the Black Forest], second attack! Destiny Crush!"
The witch continued to spread her five fingers, and red magic power gathered in her hands.
"Now!"
Yugi immediately waved his arm and shouted, "[Chocolate Magician Girl]'s special ability activated! Revive your companions from the graveyard!"
Once per turn, if this card is targeted for an attack, you can target 1 Spellcaster monster in your Graveyard other than [Chocolate Magician Girl]; Special Summon that monster. After that, the attack target changes to that monster, and the attacking monster's ATK is halved.
"What did you say!?"
Rehn was taken aback by the Yugi's sudden and unexpected move.
"Come out, [Apple Magician Girl]!"
The moment the Yugi's sound ended, a girl in a red leather jacket appeared.
[Apple Magician Girl: Attack Power 1200]
[Witch of the Black Forest: Attack power 3000 → 1500]
"Now, Young Rehn's monster's target has changed to [Apple Magician Girl]!"
"They're not going to revive the [Dark Magician Girl] from the graveyard?"
The boy looked surprised.
Immediately afterwards, the witch launched her attack.
"Ah--!"
The Apple Magician Girl was instantly engulfed, and she immediately let out a scream.
Bang!
[Yugi Muto: LP2800→2500]
"In this way, when [Witch of the Black Forest] destroys an opponent's monster in battle, her attack power increases by 400 points."
[Witch of the Black Forest: Attack power 1500 → 1900]
However, before Rehn could even feel happy, he was shocked by the next chain of events in the Yugi.
"The special effect of the destroyed [Apple Magician Girl] is activated; select up to three [Magical Girl] monsters from your Graveyard and add them to your hand, excluding this card."
"Recover the [Dark Magician Girl] and [Berry Magician Girl] from the graveyard."
[Yugi Muto's hand cards: 1→3]
After recovering the Kuriboh, he put it back into the graveyard. "Then I activate the effect of [Magical Kuriboh] again. Since I took battle damage, I can Special Summon [Dark Magician] from my Deck. Come forth!"
The card was slammed onto the Duel Disk, and the Dark Magician was once again projected in front of the two.
