Chapter 295

Judai quickly threw out a Spell Card, "Activate Quick-Play Spell, [De-Fusion]!"

[Yusei Fudo's card pack: 4 → 3]

In the blink of an eye, Earthquake Hero split back into three heroes, and the attack reflected by the mirror missed its target.

[Elemental HERO Forest HERO: Attack Power 1000]

[Elemental HERO Burst Lady - Attack Power 1200]

[Elemental HERO Avian: Attack Power 1000]

"Now that Earthquake Hero has disappeared, you can no longer destroy Edo's monster."

"Quite capable..." Seeing that her counterattack had failed, Mishiu didn't feel any regret.

"But I've also figured out the characteristics of your deck. As long as at least one of your monsters, Sakyo or Ukyo, is missing from the field, your deck won't function properly!" Judai clenched his fist and shouted sharply, "Battle continues! Forest HERO, attack Ukyo!"

At his command, Forest HERO bent down and crashed into it.

However, at that moment, Mishiu (left) made her move.

"Activate the Trap Card [Mirror Trap]. While Sakyo and Ukyo are on the field, set one Normal Trap Card from your Graveyard to your field. Trap Card buried with this card can be activated this turn."

As soon as she finished speaking, Trap Card flew out of Mishiu's (right) graveyard and was quickly caught by Mishiu (left), who then placed it into the Spell & Trap Zone without hesitation.

"Activate the Trap Card [Sacred Barrier - Mirror Bind] once more to destroy Forest HERO and Disk Guy!"

"What!?"

In an instant, the mirror created two copies of Forest HERO that collided with Judai's Forest HERO and Edo's Disk Guy.

Bang bang--!

The two monsters exploded into dust.

Seeing the Disk Guy destroyed, Edo quickly flipped up his face-down card. "Activate the Trap Card [Destiny Mirage]. When a monster with [Destiny HERO] in its name is destroyed by your opponent's effect, Special Summon all [Destiny HERO] monsters destroyed this turn."

With a flash of golden light, the Disk Guy that had just disappeared from the field reappeared.

[Destiny HERO - Disk Guy: Defense 300]

"And when the Disk Guy is Special Summoned from the Graveyard, draw two cards from your Deck."

[Edo Phoenix's hand cards: 4→6]

"As expected of you, Edo. Not only did you protect your monster, but you also used the destruction to replenish your hand."

"Hmph, it's all your fault! My [Destiny HERO] was ruined! You'd better reflect on your actions!"

"Hehehe, sorry, sorry..."

Judai looked embarrassed, then said, "But more than that, you should have noticed the change too, Edo?"

"Hmph, who do you think I am? How could I possibly ignore something like this..."

Edo spoke, he first glanced at the egg, then looked up at the moon in the sky.

At this moment, it can be seen that two of the egg's eyes have opened, revealing two round mirrors. At the same time, the moon in the sky has undergone a lunar eclipse, with one side being eroded by darkness and the other no longer being full.

Edo frowned and muttered, "That's probably some kind of indicator. I have a bad feeling..."

"What exactly are they counting?"

Judai continued, still puzzled, "I don't know what you're planning, but I have two more monsters I can use to attack. Use whatever moves you have!"

"Winged HERO and Burst Lady attack Sakyo and Ukyo!"

There was no other way; Judai nor Edo had any wind abilities, so they had to just brute force their way through.

Fortunately, this attack succeeded. Sakyo, who was pierced by the arrow, and Ukyo, who was engulfed by the flames, were instantly reduced to ashes.

As the two monsters were destroyed, two more eyes opened on the Moon Ring Mirror, revealing another inner mirror, and the moon in the sky was further eroded.

Seeing this, Judai frowned and guessed, "Two more markers have been placed. Is it counting based on the number of monsters destroyed?"

Mishiu (left) smiled slightly and explained to Judai, "You guessed right, the effect of the Continuous Spell [Moon Ring Mirror] is that the moon gradually disappears whenever a monster on the field is destroyed."

What would happen if the moon completely disappeared?

Mishiu (left) did not answer, but instead waved her arm and shouted, "Activate the Trap Card, [Soul Burial Talisman]!"

"When two or more monsters are destroyed by battle and sent to the Graveyard, you can activate this card to destroy an opponent's monster that has been in battle, and Special Summon 1 Level 5 or higher monster from your hand or Graveyard."

"What did you say?!"

On the Judai, both Winged HERO and Burst Lady had a curse symbol with the character 'curse' on their heads, and then they released violent electric currents.

'Ugh...!'

'Ahhhhhh!'

Boom--!!

The two heroes were instantly detonated by the cursed rune and turned to ashes.

As the two monsters wreaked havoc, the [Moon Ring Mirror] opened two more mirrors, and half of the moon in the sky disappeared.

"By the effect of [Soul Burial Talisman], I Special Summon Level 10 [Dark God] from my hand!"

The next moment, a thick, rainbow-colored beam of light shot into the sky behind Mishiu (left), and a huge eye opened, revealing a massive, pitch-black demon god before Judai and the others.

[Dark God: Attack Power 3000]

[Mizuchi Saio (left)'s hand cards: 3→2]

"A high-level monster of level 10 with an attack power of 3000?"

"You summoned the ace monster so easily?"

Staring at the behemoth, Judai and Edo looked rather grim.

Judai went to great lengths to defeat two monsters, and now another troublesome giant monster has appeared.

"Fortunately, she used up all her powerful Trap Card in this battle, so it's a good thing..." Judai didn't think too much about it and placed another card on the Duel Disk: "I don't have a Normal Summon monster this turn, so I'll Summon [Support Dog] in Defense Position. End of turn."

[Support Dog: Defense 1200]

[Yusei Fudo's hand cards: 3→2]

Chapter 173 Borrowing Judai's Card

"My turn, draw a card!"

[Mizuchi Saio (left) holding cards: 2→3]

After drawing the card, Mishiu (left) first threw out a Spell Card: "Heh heh, I activate [Monster Reborn] from my hand, and Special Summon Sakyo from my Graveyard in Attack Position."

[Mizuchi Saio (left)'s hand cards: 3→2]

Buzz!

A golden light flashed across the field, and Sakyo and Ukyo were projected onto her sides.

[Platinum Shikigami - Sakyo: Attack Power 600]

[Platinum Shikigami - Ukyo: Attack Power 800]

"[Monster Reborn] clearly revived Sakyo, so why did Ukyo also revive?"

In response to Edo's question, Mishiu (left) explained, "When Sakyo is Special Summoned, he can Special Summon [Platinum Shikigami - Ukyo] from the Graveyard."

'This is bad! Edo only has one [Destiny HERO] with 300 DEF on the field. We're going to lose almost half of our health this turn!'

However, just as he was thinking this, he heard...

"[Dark God] attacks [Destiny HERO - Disk Guy], Absolute Darkness!"

"What?!"

Although somewhat surprised, Judai quickly recovered, "Seriously! The Dark God cannot be attacked directly..."

At the same time, the Dark God slightly opened his giant eye, and a beam of pitch-black light shot out from it, hurtling towards Edo.

Boom--!!

The Disk Guy was engulfed by black light in the blink of an eye and instantly exploded into ashes.

"Ugh--!!"

[Yusei Fudo & Edo Phoenix: LP8000→7300]

The two looked puzzled after discovering that their health points had been deducted.

"What's going on? Why are my and Judai's life points being reduced?"

Mishiu (left) narrowed her eyes and chuckled, "Hmph, [Dark God] may not be able to attack directly, as you all think, but whenever this card destroys a monster by battle, it inflicts 700 damage to the opponent."

"Furthermore, due to the monster's destruction, [the Moon Ring Mirror] will place another marker."

The seventh mirror on the Moon Ring Mirror then opened, and the moon disappeared a little more.

"Next, the Platinum Shikigami, Sakyo and Ukyo, launched a direct attack on Edo, Silver Cyclone!"

Under her command, the two shikigami raised their 'drills' together, unleashing two silver tornadoes that hurtled towards Edo.

"Ugh...!"

[Yusei Fudo & Edo Phoenix: LP7300→5900]

"It's not over yet..."

As she spoke, she revealed another Spell Card.

"When you activate the Spell Card [Silver Reversal - Mirror Call], and you have both Sakyo and Ukyo on your field, you can choose one Trap Card from your Graveyard to add to your hand."

[Mizuchi Saio (left)'s hand cards: 2→1]

Immediately, a Trap Card popped out of her graveyard, and that card was, of course, [Sacred Barrier - Mirror Restraint].

"The mirror is restrictive, yet..."

Seeing that she had taken the card back, Judai and the other person felt quite overwhelmed.

"Then place a card in ambush, and the turn ends."

"So powerful! Saiou really wants you to trap me and Judai here!"

Edo gritted his teeth, looking somewhat angry.

"My turn, draw a card!"

[Edo Phoenix's hand cards: 6→7]

After drawing his card, Edo first drew a card from his hand and placed it on the Duel Disk: "I summon [Destiny HERO Doomkaiser] in Defense Position!"

Buzz!

With a flash of light, the pitch-black demon hero was projected.

[Destiny HERO Doomkaiser - Defense 800]

[Edo Phoenix's hand cards: 7→6]

Looking at the monster, Judai nodded. "A Devilman...? It's definitely the most suitable card for breaking through the current situation..."

"Which of these two weak monsters, Sakyo and Ukyo, disappears from the field, you can't use your Trap Card." Edo then shouted, "Devil Boy's Effect, target [Platinum Shikigami - Ukyo] and disappear for the next two turns!"

At this moment Mishiu (right) suddenly spoke up, "Heh heh, it's your own monster that's going to disappear."

"What?"

Mishiu (right) waved her arm and shouted, "Activate the counterattack trap! [Silver God's Direction Change]!"

"Negatively activate monster effects that target one of your monsters, and banish that monster from the Yugi."

The Devilman was instantly wiped off the field.

Edo clicked his tongue inwardly at this, "So, we can't continue attacking this round...?"

In that case, he has no choice but to strengthen his defenses first.

He then revealed a Spell Card: "Activate the Spell Card [Dark Factory of Mass Production], add two Normal Monsters from the Graveyard to your hand."

"Judai, can I borrow your card for a moment?"

Upon hearing this, Judai immediately realized what he was about to do, "Take it as you please!"

"Hmph, then I won't be polite..." Edo continued, "Through the effect of [Dark Factory of Mass Production], I've added [Elemental HERO Avian] and [Elemental HERO Burst Lady] from the graveyard to my hand."
