"Duel!" x3
[Youyu x Judai, LP 8000]
[Light of Destruction, LP 8000]
In this duel, Youyu and Judai are considered as one team, sharing Life Points, with a total of 8000 points. Meanwhile, Light of Destruction holds 8000 Life Points individually.
The team's fields and graveyards can be shared, but their decks and hands cannot be.
The turn order is randomly determined by the Duel Disc.
"Looks like it's my turn first. Draw card." Light of Destruction said coldly, "I summon 'Kozmo Tincan' in defense position."
The first to appear is a mechanic-type robot used for space, a small Tincan clearly lacking any combat capability.
[Kozmo Tincan, DEF 0]
"Set one card face-down, turn end."
Light of Destruction then raised an arm.
"At this moment, Tincan's effect activates. During the end phase of either player's turn, pay 500 Life Points to reveal three different 'Kozmo' cards from the deck.
Then, the opponent randomly chooses one of them to add to the hand, and the remaining two are sent to the graveyard."
[Light of Destruction, LP 8000 → LP 7500]
Three cards are ejected from his deck, appearing holographically before the two players.
After a brief display, the three cards are flipped face down, their backs facing Youyu and Judai.
"Okay, choose one." Light of Destruction said.
"Teacher." Judai turned to Youyu with a questioning look.
"You choose." Youyu deferred the choice to Judai.
Blindly choosing one from three cards is certainly a matter of luck. At such times, his teacher with luck at level 20 definitely had some faith, leaving it to Judai, the European.
"Then the one on the far left!" Judai said.
The chosen card was flipped over.
"I'll add 'Kozmo Dark Alviva' to my hand." Light of Destruction stated, "The other two are discarded to the graveyard."
Dark Alviva's design prototype is a combination of the famous Darth Vader from "Star Wars" and Elphaba from "Wicked."
Thus she might be considered a female version of Darth Vader...
"Alright, now it's my turn!" Judai said enthusiastically, "Draw card!"
Judai is feeling extremely excited right now, unusually so.
His first time battling alongside his teacher, and against such an interstellar-level duelist!
He has to perform excellently today!
But before he could play a card, Light of Destruction calmly said, "'Kozmo Tincan', activate its other effect.
Remove this card on the field from play, and Special Summon a 'Kozmo' monster of level 2 or above from the hand.
This effect can be activated during the opponent's turn."
He revealed the card just added to his hand, raising his voice: "I remove 'Kozmo Tincan' from play, here comes—
—Kozmo Dark Alviva, summon!"
The small metallic Tincan vanished from the field, replaced by a woman in a flowing black dress. With curly long hair, a tall hat, and a purple mask hiding her face, she held a purple-red Light Saber in a hand clad in black gloves.
[Kozmo Dark Alviva, ATK 2200]
"Instantly summoned a High-Level Monster?"
But Judai's moves won't stop because of this.
"Magic Card 'Take Over 5', discard the top five cards of the deck to the graveyard!"
Judai then revealed his next card.
"Summon 'Neo Space Connector'!"
[Neo Space Connector, ATK 800]
"Connector's effect! Upon successful summon, Special Summon a 'Neo Spacian' or 'Elemental Hero Neos' from hand or deck!
I will summon 'Elemental Hero Neos' from the deck..."
"Preparing to summon that troublesome alien, huh? I won't allow that." Light of Destruction said, "Dark Alviva, effect activate.
Once per turn, when a monster's effect other than hers activates, pay 1000 Life Points to negate and destroy that activation."
"Ah!" Judai was surprised, "This monster has such a strong effect!?"
[Light of Destruction, LP 7500 → LP 6500]
Alviva impassively stretched out a hand, as if some invisible force choked 'Neo Space Connector'.
The small Connector groaned painfully, pulled into the air, and then exploded into fragments with a crash.
"But this effect is only once per turn." Youyu said, "Now that restriction doesn't exist anymore."
"Great, now's my chance to attack!" Judai took a deep breath, "Activate the Magic Card 'Neos Fusion' from my hand!"
The spectators, both present and online, exclaimed.
"Whoa, Neos Fusion!"
"It's already printed this early? Judai is really strong..."
Neos Fusion, the crux of the Neos system. This single card effortlessly summons various forms of Neos and precisely mills the deck, extremely powerful.
"This card lets my Neos fuse in the deck!" Judai claimed, "I discard 'Elemental Hero Neos' and 'Neo Spacian Grand Mole' to the grave, Special Summon the corresponding Fusion Monster, ignoring summon conditions!
The power of courage, the stance of the earth—
—Elemental Hero Grand Neos, summon!"
Neos and Grand Mole soared from the deck, merging in mid-air, a newly armored Hero descended with a new form!
[Elemental Hero Grand Neos, ATK 2500]
"Grand Neos effect! Once per turn, bounce one monster on the opponent's field back to its owner's hand!" Judai shouted, "Of course I choose 'Kozmo Dark Alviva'! Bounce the witch to the hand!
Nebulous Hole!"
Grand Neos' drill spun on its arm, striking out from afar, a black vortex opened behind Alviva, its gravitational force seemingly invisible clawing her into it!
But Light of Destruction's voice remained icy, calm and emotionless: "Then I chain to activate Dark Alviva's other effect. Banish herself from play, Special Summon a level six or higher 'Kozmo' monster from the hand.
This effect can be activated during the opponent's turn."
Alviva, targeted by the black hole, instantly vanished into golden light, the cosmic hole withdrew, Grand Neos' beam shot through empty space.
"Banish 'Kozmo Alviva' from play, Special Summon from the hand—
—Kozmo Forerunner!!!"
