Yu-Gi-Oh!: Starting with an Underworld Deck, Depressing the World
Between Alexis and this girl who was previously rather cold, Akiza Izinski, it was uncertain who would win, and even Jiang He was somewhat unsure at this moment.
Although Akiza Izinski's Synchro Monster [Black Rose Dragon], combined with her Plant deck, is indeed quite strong, Alexis Rhodes's own strength is no less than her opponent's. Moreover, she also has the few Cyber Angel Ritual Monster rare cards that he gave her before, which strengthens the original 437 deck that was still lacking.
The two were essentially evenly matched! If there was any difference, Jiang He estimated that only Akiza Izinski possessed the psychic abilities that were activated after being chosen by the Mark of the Crimson Dragon, including the [Black Rose Dragon], which was also a materialized Crimson Dragon messenger.
While Alexis's Cyber Angel also harbors Duel Monsters Spirit, it completely lacks the ability to materialize.
"Then let's begin!" Alexis Rhodes looked seriously at Akiza Izinski in the distance and said, "Duel!" "Duel!"
As Alexis Rhodes and Akiza Izinski spoke at the same time, their Duel Disk flashed red and light, instantly unfolding!
After each player drew five cards from their Duel Disk deck, the same [400(ceae)0LP] Life Points quickly appeared around them!
"While it would be reasonable for you to go first, as you're the guest, I have a reason to prevent you from staying here!" Alexis Rhodes said earnestly, placing her hand directly on her Duel Disk deck! "Therefore, I'll take the first turn. Draw!"
Her main reason for launching the first attack was not that she was afraid Akiza Izinski would be able to defeat her head-on if she attacked first.
Instead, considering the [Phoenixian Cluster Amaryllis] monster used by the girl Akiza Izinski earlier, which could inflict damage on the opponent right from the start, if she were to suffer real damage like Jiang He did before, then without the protection of the Crimson Dragon Quetzalcoatl, she might be too badly injured to continue the duel! "Activate Ritual Spell from my hand, [Machine Angel Ritual]!"
After glancing at the card she had drawn, Alexis Rhodes immediately placed it on the Duel Disk and activated it! "Boom!!"
The next second, a solemn, silver-white mechanical Bonfire altar appeared in front of her with a loud rumble!
"Based on this card's effect, as a price, you can send a monster from your hand whose Level is required to summon a Ritual Monster to the Graveyard, and Special Summon one Ritual Monster with ' Cyber Angel ' in its name!"
"What?! It's Ritual Summon?!"
Seeing this from a distance, Akiza Izinski couldn't help but show a hint of surprise. Up until now, she had almost only seen this kind of summoning method in records, and had never actually seen anyone use Ritual Summon deck!
"I choose to sacrifice this Level 5 monster [Cyber Tutu] from my hand to Ritual Summon [Cyber Angel Nasatya]!" "Ho!!"
Soon, as Alexis Rhodes pointed out a monster from her hand, a phantom image of a short-haired, blue-haired girl in a tight ballet dress appeared on the huge silver-white Bonfire altar!
In the blink of an eye, it swept away with the rising Bonfire, transforming into a pillar of light.
From within, the figure of a four-armed centaur-like woman, clad in golden armor, was revealed!
With a soft chuckle, it appeared on the field in front of Alexis Rhodes!

"Next, activate the special effect of [Cyber Tutu], which was just sent to the Graveyard as a Ritual Tribute!" "When it is used for Ritual Summon, you can add one Spell Card from your Graveyard to your hand!"
As Alexis Rhodes raised the Duel Disk she was wearing, an orange-yellow light suddenly shone from the Graveyard above, and a card automatically popped out and fell into her hand, where it was signaled to be played!
"The one I'll add to my hand is, of course, the Ritual Spell I just used, [Machine Angel Ritual]!"
"What?! She actually retrieved the Ritual Spell back into her hand? Is Alexis going to perform another Ritual Summon...?!" Atticus Rhodes, watching from the sidelines, exclaimed in surprise.
Everyone else also looked surprised!
Even Jiang He raised an eyebrow upon seeing this.
Clearly, Alexis is planning to go all out right from the start!
And they clearly left themselves plenty of options!

"Next, activate the Ritual Spell [Machine Angel Ritual] again!"
"Boom!!"
Soon enough, Alexis Rhodes placed the card she had just retrieved from the graveyard onto the Duel Disk to activate it.
Suddenly, a huge, familiar, silver-white mechanical Bonfire altar burst forth from the ground in front of her with a thunderous roar!
"I tribute this Level 6 Ritual Monster [Cyber Angel Benten] from my hand to the Graveyard to Special Summon a second [Cyber Angel Nasatya]!"
"Ho!!"
Alexis Rhodes revealed two monsters from her remaining three cards!
The next second, a ghostly figure of a mature, black-haired woman in a blue and white bodysuit appeared and landed on the silver-white mechanical Bonfire altar!
In the blink of an eye, amidst the blazing flames, the sacrifice transformed into a pillar of light!
Soon, a familiar figure reappeared – a centaur-like monster clad in golden armor on its upper body!
It landed lightly on the ground in front of Alexis Rhodes!
"There are actually two [Cyber Angel Nasatya]...?"
Seeing this, even Jiang He couldn't help but show a slightly bewildered expression.
He remembered that of the few rare cards sent from the Serpent God Kingdom, he should have only given Alexis one: [Cyber Angel Nasatya].
Could it be that Alexis got lucky and opened a card pack she bought from Aunt Dorothy's convenience store a while ago...?
Jiang He could only say that perhaps this was the bond between him and the deck!
Even extremely rare cards like these, of which there are practically only a handful in the entire real-world dueling world, will come knocking on your door on their own.
"Next, activate the effect of [Cyber Angel Benten. When it is Tributed to the Graveyard, you can add one LIGHT monster from your Deck to your hand!"
Soon, in the distance, on the dueling arena, Alexis Rhodes once again raised the Duel Disk she was wearing, signaling her presence.
Suddenly, a card popped out of the deck and landed in her hand!
"Is that all? Even if you successfully summon two Ritual Monsters in one turn, they are still just low-level monsters with 1000 ATK."
Seeing this from a distance, Akiza Izinski said without any concern.
In her opinion, she could easily summon many of these monsters with 1000 attack power even without Ritual Summon! "How dare you say that!" As soon as she said that, Alexis Rhodes throbbed!
Looking at the scene from a distance, the others next to Jiang He couldn't help but shiver, hugging their arms and trembling!
It feels like the temperature around us has dropped a bit!
Even Rei Saotome fan, felt the same way. At this moment, all they could say was that a duel between two women who could both be called ice queens was far more terrifying than a typical "women fighting" scene!
Immediately, Alexis Rhodes raised her hand and gestured towards the two identical golden-armored, centaur-like monster figures in front of her, saying, "Then let me show you its power! The effect of [Cyber Angel Nasatya]!"
"When there are other monsters on the field whose names contain ' Cyber Angel,' attacks against them can be directly Null and Void!" "Hmm!!"
At Alexis Rhodes's signal, the two [Cyber Angel Nasatya] mature female monster figures on the field in front of her also released golden barriers to each other, forming a defense! "What?!"
Upon hearing her words, both Akiza Izinski, her dueling opponent in the distance, and Bastion Misawa, Kaiser Zane Truesdale, Aster Phoenix, and the others watching from the sidelines, couldn't help but show expressions of surprise!... Requesting flowers 0...
"There are now two [Cyber Angel Nasatya] on the Alexis. This means that these two Nasatimi can mutually trigger each other's effects, forming an absolute defense! Blocking the opponent's attacks!" Bastion Misawa exclaimed in astonishment. "That's indeed a very clever opening blockade tactic."
Even the little gray- Aster Phoenix nodded in agreement.
"Although it consumed four cards, the resulting blockade is arguably the most troublesome situation even in the history of professional duels!" "It's even more solid and difficult to deal with than the situation created by Akiza Izinski Aki during her duel with Jiang He."
Even Jiang He couldn't help but mutter a complaint to himself.
As expected, this so-called "absolute defense" that can be formed after possessing two [Cyber Angel Nasatya] has appeared.
Although it only blocks the opponent's attacks, it does not include methods such as direct attacks.
But for someone who can't quickly destroy one of the monsters with its effects, this is indeed a rather troublesome situation. It's just that this "Absolute Defense" falag always feels a little strange to him... Finally, I'll set up another Ambush card."
"Activate the other effect of [Cyber Angel Nasatya] Once per turn, you can choose one monster on your field and restore half of its ATK as Life Points!" "And I have two [Cyber Angel Nasatya] on my field, so I can restore 1000 LP Life Points!" With a "thud," a huge Ambush card appeared on the field in front of Alexis Rhodes.
At the same time, her original [4000LP] health points also increased by 1000, becoming [5000LP]! IV.

"Now it's my turn, draw a card!"
Seeing Alexis Rhodes finish her turn, Akiza Izinski's expression immediately became much more serious as she drew cards from her own Duel Disk deck!
This girl, whose relationship with that guy seems quite complicated, certainly possesses the strength to be considered a formidable rival!
After glancing at the card she had drawn, she immediately placed it on the Duel Disk and activated it! "Activate the Spell Card from my hand, [Graceful Charity]!"
A familiar Spell Card, depicting an angel in white robes with a halo, holding a card image, suddenly appeared on the field in front of her!
"This card's effect allows you to draw three cards from your deck and add them to your hand, then discard any two cards from your hand to the graveyard." "I choose to discard these two Plant-Type '440' monsters from my hand!"
After drawing three more cards from her Duel Disk deck, Akiza Izinski immediately selected two cards from her hand and placed them into her own Duel Disk graveyard!
Jiang He immediately noticed that the two cards this girl had discarded from the graveyard seemed to be the type that could be resurrected from the graveyard...
One of them was the [Phoenixian Cluster Amaryllis] I used in my duel with him before! Then, I summoned a Level 1 Tuner monster in Defense Position, [Copy Plant]!
In the blink of an eye, on the dueling field in the distance, Akiza Izinski quickly slapped a card onto her Duel Disk! "Hmm!!"
As a blue vortex of light appeared, a monstrous, brownish-red plant-like shape emerged!
He appeared in front of Akiza Izinski with a muffled groan!

"A 1-star Tuner monster, [Copy Plant]...?!"
Upon seeing the monster summoned by Akiza Izinski, Alexis Rhodes couldn't help but show a hint of surprise.
Just from the name, she felt that this monster was something special!
Moreover, it's a Tuner Monster necessary for Synchro Summon!
"[Copy Plant]'s special effect, once per turn: You can choose one monster on your opponent's field and change its Level to the same as theirs!"
Soon, in the distance opposite, Akiza Izinski raised her hand and pointed to one of the [Cyber Angel Nasatya] on the field in front of her! "I choose to copy the level of [Cyber Angel Nasatya]!" "Ho!!"
As Akiza Izinski gestured, the brownish-brown, root-like plant monster in front of her instantly transformed into a wooden plant monster remarkably similar to [Cyber Angel Nasatya] amidst a series of root entanglements and changes, uttering the same soft groan!
And its rating has changed from 1 star to 5 stars!
"Next, I activate the effect of [Dark Verger], the monster I just abandoned in my Graveyard using the effect of the Spell Card [Graceful Charity]!" "When a Plant-Type Tuner Monster is successfully Summoned to your field, you can revive it from your Graveyard and Special Summon to the field!" "Awaken, [Dark Verger]!"
As Akiza Izinski raised the Duel Disk she was wearing, a burst of orange-yellow light suddenly shone from the graveyard above!
In the blink of an eye, it landed on the ground in front of her, and in the dim light, it grew like a seed, transforming into a small plant monster with two huge green leaves and a pair of eyes!
