The Protagonist of the Yu-Gi-Oh! World Might Be the Same Person

The bolt of lightning instantly dissipated.

"Tch, blocked huh..."

Nightmare Penguin said with dissatisfaction.

"It's not just that, my combo isn't finished yet. According to the effect of [Roadblock], all monsters on your field in face-up Attack Position must attack [Unhappy Girl]."

As soon as Yugi finished speaking, the remaining four penguins charged forward uncontrollably.

Of course, they were all swatted back by the girl.

"Crap!!"

The penguin knew very well what the consequences of battling the Unhappy Girl were.

"Since all the monsters on your field have battled with [Unhappy Girl], none of your monsters can attack anymore."

All five of the penguin's monsters had their attacks sealed, rendering them useless. Furthermore, due to the effect of the Field Spell, it couldn't tribute any monster for a stronger one. Thus, these five penguins became pure garbage taking up space. If they encountered a stall deck, it would be game over. And coincidentally, Yugi had such a card on his field right now.

"My turn, draw!"

[Yugi Muto Hand: 3 → 4]

After drawing his card, Yugi raised his hand and shouted.

"During my Standby Phase, [Dark Magician Girl Kurain]'s monster effect activates!"

During my Standby Phase, inflict damage to your opponent equal to the number of monsters on their field × 300.

"Wha-what!?"

The penguin broke out in a cold sweat.

"Go, [Dark Magician Girl Kurain]!"

Kurain whipped her whip forward.

Crack--!

The whip struck the penguin's face.

"That hurts--!!"

The penguin immediately let out a scream.

[Nightmare Penguin: LP 4000 → 2500]

"Yeah! Beat that old pervert to death!"

Anzu, standing behind Yugi, felt a surge of relief. Beating up old perverts was so satisfying.

"You two hateful brats!"

The penguin's mood soured to the extreme.

"My turn ends."

Yugi ignored the opponent's mood and ended his turn.

Chapter 38: Dark Magician Girl

"A beautiful combo!"

Although King still harbored doubts about Yugi using such a "tough guy" card, he had to admit that this stall strategy was quite commendable.

At this moment, the penguin had already drawn a card.

"My turn!"

[Nightmare Penguin Hand: 1 → 2]

After glancing at the card he drew, the penguin's expression immediately turned grim.

"Damn it! Why didn't this card come sooner? If it had, I could have destroyed that [Soul Barrier] last turn and easily defeated that brat!"

It wasn't for nothing that it felt so distressed; the card it drew was none other than [Twister]!

With its attacks sealed by the Unhappy Girl, even if it destroyed Soul Barrier, it couldn't deal any damage to Yugi.

"I activate the Quick-Play Spell [Twister] to destroy [Soul Barrier]!"

It furiously used the card.

A gust of wind appeared and instantly shredded Soul Barrier.

"Turn end."

Even though it had destroyed the card, it still couldn't move and could only end its turn.

"My turn, draw!"

[Yugi Muto Hand: 4 → 5]

"During my Standby Phase, I activate [Dark Magician Girl Kurain]'s effect again, inflicting 1500 damage to you."

Kurain raised her whip once more.

"Eek--! Don't come near me--!!"

Although the penguin looked full of malice, it backed down upon seeing the whip.

Crack--!

Another whip struck its face.

"That hurts--!!"

It yelped in pain and flew back.

[Nightmare Penguin: LP 2500 → 1000]

"Great! Yugi will win if he just waits one more turn!"

Anzu was already popping champagne.

"No, maybe not even one turn..."

King said, looking at the card Yugi had drawn this turn.

As expected, Yugi didn't hesitate to insert the card into his Duel Disk.

"I activate the Spell Card [Card Destruction]. Players discard all cards in their hand, and then draw cards from their Deck equal to the number of cards they discarded."

Yugi sent four cards to the Graveyard and then drew four new ones.

[Yugi Muto Hand: 5 → 4]

The penguin only needed to discard one card, which was completely irrelevant.

"Since three monster cards were discarded due to the effect of [Card Destruction], I now have a total of five monster cards in my Graveyard."

Yugi suddenly said this seemingly meaningless statement.

"Huh!? What's that got to do with anything?"

The recovered penguin asked, completely bewildered.

"With this, I can use the Deck Master effect of [Dark Magician Girl]. I'm counting on you, [Dark Magician Girl]!"

Yugi's gaze turned to Dark Magician Girl.

"Yes, Master!"

A cute female voice suddenly echoed in Yugi's mind.

"Huh!? [Dark Magician Girl], was that you talking to me?"

Startled by the voice, Yugi quickly asked back.

"Mhm, it was me! I'll help you finish this battle now!"

Dark Magician Girl nodded at Yugi and smiled sweetly, confirming his guess.

Yugi, who was naturally shy, instantly blushed upon hearing Dark Magician Girl call him "Master."

"Um... I'll leave it to you, [Dark Magician Girl]. I really need your power right now..."

Yugi's voice became a little quieter, showing his embarrassment.

"Please leave it to me, Master!"

Dark Magician Girl patted her ample chest, causing Yugi's face to turn even redder.

"Ahem, let's get back to the Duel, AIBO."

King, who had noticed the interaction between Yugi and Dark Magician Girl, awkwardly urged Yugi to make his move.

"Oh, right..."

Yugi finally snapped back to reality.

"I activate the Deck Master effect of [Dark Magician Girl], Dark Magic Secret Technique - Soul Circle!"

As soon as Yugi finished speaking, Dark Magician Girl's body rose slightly. At the same time, the five monsters in the Graveyard rose up and began to circle around her.

"My Deck Master ability allows me to borrow the power of my slumbering comrades in the Graveyard and draw cards from my Deck equal to their number."

Then, five cards from Yugi's Deck floated before him.

[Yugi Muto Hand: 4 → 9]

"Here it is! This is the card!"

Drawing five cards at once felt amazing, and he had gotten the crucial card.

"Let's go, [Dark Magician Girl]!"

"Yes!"

Dark Magician Girl then moved in front of Yugi.

"I summon my Deck Master, [Dark Magician Girl], to the field."

[Dark Magician Girl: ATK 2000]

Immediately after, Yugi played a card from his hand.

"I activate the Spell Card [Dark Magic Burst Break] again."

Can only be activated if there is a [Dark Magician Girl] monster on your field. Destroy all face-up monsters on your opponent's field.

There is an illustration here; you can view it in updated versions.

"Nangda duo!?"

The Penguin jumped in surprise at these words.

"It's over, Dark Magic Burst Break!"

Dark Magician Girl raised her staff and summoned a red orb of light, smashing it towards the opponent.

Bang--!!

"Ughhh--!!!"

[Nightmare Penguin: LP1000→0]

All six penguins disappeared in the light.

With this, Yugi achieved a double kill.

Chapter 39: The Great Five Elders Eating Mud Together

"You were a big help, thank you, [Dark Magician Girl]."

After finishing the Duel, Yugi looked at Dark Magician Girl.

"Heehee~~!"

Pleased with the praise, Dark Magician Girl smiled happily, then turned into a stream of light and landed on Yugi's hand, transforming back into a card.

Remembering Dark Magician Girl's playful smile just now, Yugi smiled knowingly.

Just as he was smiling like this, suddenly...

"Hiss! It hurts--!"
