"Duel!" x2

[Alexis, LP 4000]

[Takahashi, LP 4000]

There was still some time before the meeting began. Hearing that there was a card game to watch, various experts gathered around.

"Hm? Is that the Chief of the Cyber Angel research…?"

"Chief Takahashi, the most authoritative figure in this field." Someone quickly recognized him. "His opponent seems to be a young girl, does anyone know her?"

"I heard she's a new student from Duel Academy…"

"Huh? Really?"

"..."

Gold-medal commentator Misawa had also taken his place, standing beside You Xuan.

"His opponent is an authoritative expert, and she uses the same type of Deck as Alexis Rhodes. Do you think she'll be okay?"

"An expert title only means their research achievements are impressive, not necessarily that their dueling skills are as strong. Besides, even in terms of research achievements, we're not falling behind anymore, are we?" You Xuan smiled.

"That's true, but…"

"It's fine, just watch." You Xuan patted Misawa's shoulder, confidently stating, "She'll be fine."

"..."

"Then, the first turn goes to you, little sister."

Takahashi showed the demeanor of a master, magnanimously offering the first turn.

Alexis nodded, not being shy. "Then, it's my turn, Draw!"

After drawing, she quickly scanned her hand, recalling the new strategies Cyber Angels had gained after their recent enhancements.

And the new Deck construction, rebuilt based on the enhanced characteristics under You Xuan's guidance.

"First, I activate the Spell Card 'Terraforming'!" Alexis declared. "I add 1 Field Spell Card from my Deck to my hand.

I add the Field Spell 'Ritual Sanctuary' from my Deck to my hand!"

Chief Takahashi nodded slightly. This Field Spell was also a card their association had developed previously, capable of searching key components from the Deck.

"Then, I activate the Field Spell!"

As Alexis inserted her card into the Duel Disk, the field swiftly changed, and a massive cathedral rose from the ground. Sunlight filtered through stained-glass windows, casting dappled light and shadow, and countless roses drifted down. A beautifully adorned altar held a Bible and a cross.

"Ritual Sanctuary allows me to discard 1 Spell Card from my hand to add 1 Ritual Spell Card or 1 LIGHT Ritual Monster from my Deck to my hand."

Alexis sent a card from her hand to the Graveyard, then searched her Deck.

"I add 'Cyber Angel Benten' from my Deck to my hand!" Alexis announced. "Then, I activate the Spell Card 'Preparation of Rites'! I add 1 Level 7 or lower Ritual Monster from my Deck to my hand, then add 1 Ritual Spell Card from my Graveyard to my hand.

I add 'Cyber Angel Natasha' from my Deck to my hand, and return 'Machine Angel Ritual' – which I just discarded to the Graveyard – to my hand!"

"Natasha?" Chief Takahashi was startled.

There's a Cyber Angel like that? How come I don't know about it?

"Oh, this is a new card we just completed yesterday, so it might not be in the paper." Alexis displayed the Ritual Monster she searched from her Deck. "Please give me your guidance during this duel, Chief."

Takahashi was shocked. "You… in just these few days, you completed an unprecedented new card!?"

Even the other domain experts observing the meeting found it unbelievable, and they couldn't help but cast surprised glances at the Duel Academy students.

A new card that even the association's Chief had never heard of…

Are these really just students?

"Interesting, truly interesting." Chief Takahashi's expression grew more expectant. "Then let me witness it, the new power of Cyber Angels."

"Of course."

Alexis said solemnly.

"From my hand, I activate the Ritual Spell Card 'Machine Angel Ritual'! I Tribute monsters from my hand or field whose total Levels equal or exceed the Level of the Ritual Monster I intend to Ritual Summon, to Ritual Summon 1 'Cyber Angel' Ritual Monster!"

She revealed the two Ritual Monsters she had just searched.

"I Tribute Level 6 'Cyber Angel Benten' to Ritual Summon!"

Alexis raised her hand.

"Oh, Angel of Light, keeper of hidden healing power, bring forth sacred healing with your beautiful form! Descend—

—Cyber Angel Natasha!!!"

Benten's form transformed into raging flames on the altar. The flames rapidly expanded, and holy light burst forth. A four-armed, half-human, half-beast angel with a flowing crimson cloak and four eyes on its golden helmet, wide open, descended onto the field.

[Cyber Angel Natasha, ATK 1000]

"It appeared, a new Cyber Angel."

Having been stuck in research for many years, Chief Takahashi couldn't help but feel excited seeing a new angel descend.

"But its ATK is only 1000," Chief Takahashi reminded. "Benten's ATK is 1600. Why would you Tribute Benten to Summon this card?"

Alexis smiled slightly. "'Cyber Angel Benten' has a new effect. If this card is Tributed, you can add 1 Fairy-Type or LIGHT Attribute monster from your Deck to your hand.

Therefore, from my Deck, I add this card…"

Alexis searched her Deck again, revealing a Ritual Monster.

"I add 'Cyber Angel Idaten' to my hand."

"I see, Benten's new ability unleashes its maximum value when Tributed." Chief Takahashi nodded slightly.

"Then, 'Cyber Angel Natasha's' effect activates!" Alexis declared. "Once per turn, I can target 1 face-up monster on my field.

I gain Life Points equal to half of that monster's ATK.

I choose 'Cyber Angel Natasha' herself, and gain half of its ATK, which is 500 LP!"

[Alexis, LP 4000 → LP 4500]

"A Life Point recovery-type ability." Chief Takahashi stroked his chin. "A defense-oriented Cyber Angel? That's quite rare."

Alexis smiled slightly.

Natasha's abilities were far more extensive than just that.

But she didn't say anything.

"My turn ends."

"Then, it's my turn, Draw." Chief Takahashi said. "I activate the Spell Card 'Graceful Charity'! I draw 3 cards, then discard 2 cards from my hand."

But one of the discarded cards quickly popped back out.

"One of the discarded cards from my hand is the Spell Card 'Card of Compensation.' When this card is sent from the hand to the Graveyard, I draw 2 cards from my Deck." (Original card)

The Chief drew cards, then immediately revealed three cards from his hand.

"Spell Card 'Polymerization'!

I fuse 'Blade Skater' and 'Etoile Cyber' from my hand! Fusion Summon—

—Cyber Blader!!!"

Blade Skater and Etoile Cyber vanished in a swirling fusion vortex. A graceful skater glided forward on ice blades, her long hair flowing as she elegantly spun.

[Cyber Blader, ATK 2100]

Alexis watched intently.

This was also a powerful monster she often used in her own Deck, the Cyber Angel Fusion ace.

"I'm coming for you now, little sister from Duel Academy." Chief Takahashi said. "Let me see your new power as a Cyber Angel!"
