"For Leomon, with its defense as high as 2300, losing merely 500 defense was practically nothing."
"And its attack will rise to 2800!"
"Robert, do you hear the Grim Reaper's call?"
Victor suddenly thrust out a hand and shouted, "Leomon, attack!"
Robert had only one Magic Spirit on his field, so there was no need to choose a target.
Leomon took its stance and swung its blade fiercely.
A flash shot forth, and Minotaur Axe King fell in response.

"My turn!"
Robert swiftly drew two new cards and added them to his hand.
Then he glanced at the two Magic Spirits on Victor's field and made a quick calculation.
"In Defense Position, Normal Summon Shuckle!"
"I'll set two more cards and end
