Chapter 246
Who knew that summoning a single 6-star monster with 2500 ATK would only result in Special Summoning four 2-star or lower Zombie-type monsters from the Graveyard.
This truly surprised everyone.
In the end, he was defeated without any doubt by Manjoume "Lightning" using the Ojama King.
As for the truth about Abidas III, it is that he was indeed a minor pharaoh in history, but the title of god of duels was given to him by a group of sycophants who dared not defeat him, which allowed the pharaoh to win every time.
However, Abidas III, upon learning of this fact and suffering a crushing defeat, was not angered. Having experienced the true joy of dueling, he even longed to duel with everyone present.
"It's a pity I can't stay in the mortal realm. If possible, would you all like to ascend to the underworld with me? It would be such a shame that our joyful duel would end so abruptly!"
Everyone present broke out in a cold sweat upon hearing this; for modern humans, this was an extremely terrifying thing.
Going to the underworld? Isn't that just actively seeking death?
So the Judai stepped forward and suggested, "Ahem, we appreciate the Pharaoh's kindness, but we haven't lived enough yet."
"You might as well go and duel with other Pharaoh, especially the legendary Pharaoh who returned to the Underworld a few years ago. It's said that he once resided in the body of the King of Games Yugi Muto, and his strength is considered top-tier in the dueling world!"
"Yeah yeah..."
The crowd, driven by a strong will to survive, echoed this sentiment.
After hearing what the Judai said, Abidas III's eyes lit up. "There is such a powerful person? I must go and meet him!"
And so, with everyone watching, Abidas III excitedly left the mortal world with his entourage.
Meanwhile, inside a dark cave.
A tall man in a black trench coat and mask grinned wildly, "Finally, finally I'm back! I, Titan, have returned from hell to take my revenge on you!"
Chapter 92 School Festival, Cosplay
Seeing Titan dragged into hell by the Dark Yami before he could even utter a last word, everyone gasped in horror.
Everyone was even more shocked by Kang's power; a triple Kang completely crushed the opponent, leaving them with no chance to fight back.
During a duel, they're always trying to outmaneuver you, leaving you no chance at all. How can you possibly have a good game like that?
The common understanding of duels has always been to maximize the use of monsters with high attack power, and to create monsters with high resistance or strong removal capabilities is considered the mark of a skilled player.
A typical duel is about back and forth, with you setting up the field and me clearing it, and vice versa, going back and forth, which is quite enjoyable!
However, today's duel has refreshed everyone's understanding of dueling—using 'counter' to interfere with the opponent's actions!
Due to the limitations of the era and the card pool, ordinary duelists cannot specialize in the 'Counter' tactic, which leads to the general public not paying much attention to 'Counter'. However, there is now a typical tactic that can demonstrate its power, but it is only limited to the 'Announcer' series. To achieve the goal of having multiple 'Counter' on the field, it will be at least after the Synchro Era.
Players have now realized that building high resistance and removal is far less effective than building 'counter'. Multiple 'counter' can easily destroy the opponent's tactics. Although their decks cannot specialize in this, they have begun to value this kind of effect.
Asuka understood this perfectly well, because Judai had said: 'Building high attack is less effective than building a last will, building a last will is less effective than building resistance, building resistance is less effective than building interference, and building interference is less effective than direct lockdown.'
The reason why the real-world card environment has become so harsh is precisely because of this. It is also because of this that 'counter', which can directly disrupt the opponent's tactics at the source, has become the main tactic of most mainstream decks.
Therefore, Asuka's current deck is far stronger than everyone else's decks. Even Judai and Ryo Marufuji wouldn't dare say they could definitely defeat her Declarator deck.
Of course, once you collect more hero monsters with more attributes in the later stages of the Judai, it's not impossible to fight them. Even if you take some damage, you can still continue to unleash your power.
In conclusion, Asuka's strength has now jumped to the top three among everyone due to the power of her deck.
The morning sun was just rising outside the old dormitory gate.
After the duel ended, Asuka's brother, Fubuki Tenjo, also regained some of his memories. It is said that he remembered having had a similar experience in the past after seeing Titan being taken into the dark world and disappearing before his eyes.
Asuka wondered, "But, brother, why did you go to the dark world?"
Fubuki explained helplessly, "It wasn't my choice to go in. We received special lessons in that dormitory and participated in a test duel in the Duel Arena just now. Then, like Titan just now, we were swallowed by darkness and engaged in brutal duels in that world that are unimaginable to ordinary people."
Judai stepped forward and asked, "Who brought Fubuki- senpai to that world?"
Fubuki gently shook her head. "I don't know either, but was it Teacher Daidouji who asked me to participate in the test duel that day?"
"Eh?!"
"It's actually Teacher Daidouji?"
Judai stroked his chin. "Teacher Daidouji? I knew he was no ordinary person, but unfortunately he's long since disappeared."
He also told everyone about Lin's situation before Daidouji's disappearance and her identity.
"One of the Seven Stars, Teacher Daidouji really kept it well hidden."
"Even the academy didn't know about this, how embarrassing! Naonai!"
Everyone was very surprised by this, but it was a pity that Daidouji had already fled.
In any case, the Seven Stars have already dealt with six of them, and now only Daidouji is left. He will reappear before them sooner or later.
For the next two weeks, Daidouji remained missing, and the academy returned to a long-awaited period of peace.
However, Duel Academy is celebrating a very important event today – the School Festival!
This is an open campus festival where students organize various interesting activities, and people from both inside and outside the school are welcome to visit.
However, academies like Duel Academy, located on isolated islands at sea, obviously cannot invite many people from outside the school.
Therefore, the Duel Academy's school festival basically consists of the three dormitories each holding their own events, and then visiting and playing in each other's areas.
The Blue Dorm mainly hosts tea parties and cocktail parties, while the Yellow Dorm is used for temple fairs and food stalls, which Asuka, Judai, and others are not very interested in.
So a few acquaintances who often hang out together gathered at the Red Dorm Judai for a meeting, and everyone watched with boredom as the Red Dorm students made arrangements for the cosplay event below.
Misawa, standing nearby, enthusiastically suggested, "Why don't we join the Red Dorm cosplay duel? There's no point in worrying about Teacher Daidouji all the time."
Judai shrugged. "You're right. It wouldn't be bad to have some fun during the school festival. What do you think, Asuka?"
Asuka agreed, saying, "I think it's okay. We can't keep being so tense."
No one else had any objections.
"Then it's decided."
Meanwhile, in a corner out of sight of the students, the figure of a pretty young girl flashed by.
'Hehe~, I've finally met you, little master!'
When Judai arrived at the changing room, many people had just changed their clothes and were coming out.
Asuka was among them; she and her best friends Junko and Momoe each wore a [Harpie Lady] outfit, forming the [Harpie Lady Sisters], which looked extremely pleasing to the eye.
Judai quickly changed as well, but his outfit was rather flamboyant, consisting of unwanted spare parts pieced together into a bizarre and eclectic mix.
The armor of [Magician of Black Chaos], the gloves and magic hat of [Dark Magician of Chaos], the shoulder armor and cloak of [Mystic Swordsman], the shield of [Iron Knight Gia Fried]... it's as if a bunch of monsters have been forcibly Polymerization together by Super Fusion.
Asuka asked, dumbfounded, "Judai, what are you cosplaying as?"
Judai scratched his head awkwardly and laughed, "I don't even know what this is called, it's just a hodgepodge of cosplay outfits. Anyway, I didn't have any other cosplay clothes, so I'll just make do with this one, haha."
Asuka: "Isn't it pretty good?" ( ^ △ ^|||)
However, this outfit still fits Judai's personality, which favors Fusion Monster.
Instead of focusing on Judai's strange appearance, everyone turned their attention to the person who had entered through the door.
Thump thump thump...
A series of heavy footsteps approached, followed by Manjoume's soft laughter.
"Wow, this is quite a spectacle! Let me see what you're all playing!"
Chapter 93: The Dark Magician Girl's Intrusion?!
Upon hearing Manjoume's voice, everyone rushed outside to see what was happening, only to discover that Manjoume had actually cosplayed as a uniquely designed mecha monster, one of his signature monsters—[XYZ-Dragon Cannon]!
This mecha suit was clearly not from the academy's collection, but rather custom-made by Manjoume himself.
He spent a lot of money on this, all in order to make a name for himself at today's school festival.
However, the reactions of the crowd were far from what he expected; most of them looked surprised, but there was little praise or flattery.
Manjoume muttered in astonishment, "What's going on? Isn't my cosplay outfit cool enough? Don't you all think it's amazing?"
The main difference is that the Judai's outfit has a stronger visual impact; my impression of this mecha is that it's cool, but also a bit bulky.
Without lingering in the changing room, most of them changed into their cosplay outfits and headed together to the Duel Arena set up in front of the Red Dorm.
The highlight of Osiris Red's event is the cosplay duel, and many other Blue Dorm and Yellow Dorm are already there waiting to watch.
In the open space in front of the Red Dorm, a makeshift Duel Arena was marked out with white paint. Some students dressed as monsters were already engaged in duels there, creating a lively atmosphere.
When Judai and his group arrived, dozens of teachers and students present cast hopeful glances their way. They naturally hoped that this top-tier student would also take to the stage for a duel, so that everyone could feast their eyes on him.
Judai wasn't in a rush to play.
However, the two students who were fighting stopped their duel and voluntarily gave up their positions.
"Judai- kun, come on here!"
Seeing this, Judai did not refuse. He took off his shield, put on his Duel Disk, and stepped onto the Duel Arena.
Embarrassingly, no one was willing to come up and fight him.
The teachers and students watching immediately started to jeer.
"Manjoume, you go! Don't you always want to be the best in the academy? Why not take this great opportunity?"
"Let's seize this opportunity to launch a revenge attack on him!"
"That's right!"
Manjoume's face immediately fell, looking like a cat. "What are you talking about? How can I duel dressed like this? I'd better be the referee."
Asuka didn't really want to compete with Judai, and the others hadn't changed into their cosplay outfits yet, so for a moment no one came forward.
But just then, a slender figure skipped up to Judai and asked in a clear voice, "May I be your opponent?"
She was a cute girl dressed as a [Dark Magician Girl].
Wow, what a cute girl!
"She's so beautiful, she looks just like the real thing!"
"She's not a student in our college, is she? Is she from outside the school?"
The girl was quite beautiful, instantly stunning all the teachers and students present, who then discussed her enthusiastically.
However, the person standing opposite her Judai, knew very well that she was not a cosplayer from outside the school.
Because he sensed that the opponent was a materialized Duel Spirit, he carefully examined her appearance. 'The emblem on her chest wasn't a pentagram, but the Eye of Ughert; it seems that's the item that maintains her form.'
'Aside from this difference, it's basically the same as a card, and I don't sense any malice in it. Interesting, could it be the spirit that Yugi Muto possesses?'
Thinking this, Judai looked up at the girl opposite him and readily agreed, "Alright, of course you can be my opponent, let's duel!"
"Yay!"
The Dark Magician Girl jumped for joy.
"The Dark Magician Girl is so cute!!"
Everyone assumed the girl was happy about the upcoming duel.
However, the Dark Magician Girl was thinking: 'I finally managed to sneak away from my master, and now I can finally play with my little master! I'm so happy!'
My wife sneaked away. jpg
That's right, this is indeed the genuine Dark Magician Girl from the Yugi, and she knows Judai's identity and wants to get closer to him.
Of course, Judai is unaware of this at the moment.
Under the watchful eyes of a large audience, the duel finally began.
As the referee, Manjoume "Lightning" picked up the microphone and announced, "The cosplay duel between Yusei Fudo who is cosplaying something, for reasons unknown) and the Dark Magician Girl officially begins!"
After the two players shuffled the cards, they began their Duel Disk.
The Dark Magician Girl flashed a peace sign at Judai and smiled sweetly, "Please have mercy!"
