Chapter 13: The Great Majin
Boom~
The poor Barrel Dragon got jabbed with a syringe by Injection Fairy Lily!
It's big, but you have to endure it.
"Waaah..."
[Keith (Marik): 4000 LP → 2300 LP]
"Dammit." Keith (Marik) covered a card with a grimace and ended his turn.
He had misjudged one thing: Yu Miao was stronger than he had imagined.
This deck wasn't his, it belonged to this Keith guy!
Keith (Marik) started to take this duel seriously, otherwise, he might very well lose this one!
After calming down.
The Sunshine Boy began to assess the current situation.
Injection Fairy Lily's effect to increase ATK was indeed useful, but it cost 2000 Life Points each time.
Under Yu-Gi-Oh! duel rules, everyone starts with 4000 Life Points.
This meant Injection Fairy Lily's effect could normally only be used once.
So, Injection Fairy Lily couldn't possibly boost her ATK a second time!
"My turn, draw." Yu Miao drew a card from his deck.
"Activate the Spell Card, Mystical Space Typhoon." The wind-type Spell Card swirled across the field.
Boom~
Keith (Marik)'s set card was instantly destroyed.
It was a treacherous Trap Hole!
[Trap Hole: Can be activated when your opponent Summons a monster(s) (with 1000 or more ATK). Destroy that monster(s).]
"Heh, how scary, you actually set a card like that." Yu Miao wore an expression of mock fear.
Keith (Marik) snorted coldly. As the set card disappeared, his unease grew.
Whoosh~
A white mist rose around Injection Fairy Lily's feet, the prelude to a tribute.
Yu Miao raised a Monster Card in his hand and declared: "I tribute Injection Fairy Lily to Tribute Summon, Dark Magician Girl!"
"What?"
"The legendary Dark Magician Girl!?"
Whoosh~
Injection Fairy Lily was offered as a tribute, and a pink-purple magic circle lit up on the ground.
Purple hearts spread out from the magic circle.
A girl with a delicate figure and exquisite features, wearing a pink frilly dress and holding a magic staff, slowly emerged from the circle.
Inside the circle, Dark Magician Girl crossed her arms in front of her chest, her face full of confusion, shock, and a faint hint of... arrogance?
Unlike the Dark Magician Girl belonging to Yugi Muto, the one Yu Miao summoned clearly had a more arrogant expression.
It couldn't be associated with the word "cute" at all.
From Dark Magician Girl's face, Yu Miao only saw one word.
Delinquent!
"The legendary Dark Magician Girl, isn't that card limited to one copy globally?" Marik, hiding within Keith, didn't understand, but he was greatly shocked.
For a moment, Marik truly thought the Yu Miao before him was Yugi Muto himself...
However, he quickly rationalized a reason for himself.
This Dark Magician Girl was ninety percent likely a fake card.
Don't forget, they were Rare hunters.
As elite members of the Rare hunters, what's the big deal if they had a few fake cards on them?
But fake cards usually projected monsters that were somewhat dull and lifeless, with more or less pixelation issues.
This Dark Magician Girl's posture, expression, and little mannerisms~
Seemed pretty authentic!
Yu Miao looked at Keith (Marik)'s expression and knew what he was thinking.
This Dark Magician Girl was indeed a fake card before.
But after being infused with Yu Miao's essence, it had evolved into a genuine Monster Card.
"Entering the Battle Phase, Dark Magician Girl, attack!" Yu Miao entered the Battle Phase.
Keith (Marik) had no monsters or set cards on the field, so this attack was smooth as silk~
Dark Magician Girl walked up to Keith (Marik), her left hand began to glow, blinding him.
Then, taking advantage of his blindness, she swung the magic staff in her right hand hard against Keith (Marik)'s skull!
"F--k"
Yu Miao couldn't help but utter the name of a plant; it looked painful even to him.
"That hurts so much." Keith (Marik) howled in pain, his Life Points visibly dropping.
[Keith (Marik): 2300 LP → 300 LP]
Controlling Keith's body, Marik's own senses naturally felt the same.
This intense pain contorted the Sunshine Boy's face stuck to the deck.
"I end my turn." Yu Miao always felt this Dark Magician Girl was a bit off.
Keith (Marik) endured the pain on his forehead and stood up, shouting: "Draw!"
Getting injured during a duel was a common occurrence.
The not-yet-evil Marik didn't redirect his anger, but instead focused more on the duel.
At that moment, a small device on the inside of Keith (Marik)'s right wrist.
The device held cards with a pre-determined order.
Marik instantly replaced the drawn card with another card!
Yu Miao's eyes shifted slightly; he seemed to have noticed something.
"I activate the Spell Card, Card of Sanctity!" Keith (Marik) raised the swapped-in rare card high and shouted.
[Card of Sanctity (Anime): Both players draw cards until they have 6 cards in their hand.]
This was another anime only god card!
Keith (Marik) and Yu Miao both replenished their hand resources from their decks.
Whether it was an illusion or not, Marik felt like Yu Miao's eyes revealed... greed?
Yu Miao originally wanted to angrily denounce Keith (Marik)'s shameless card-swapping behavior.
But...
Card of Sanctity was too tempting.
Yu Miao allowed Keith (Marik) to be so willful.
Because, this card would soon have a new owner.
Only in his hands could Card of Sanctity truly shine!
Now, Keith (Marik) drew his chance for a comeback through "Card of Sanctity": "Activate the Spell Card, Double Summon!"
[Double Summon: This turn, you can conduct 2 Normal Summons/Sets.]
"I Normal Summon, Ryu-Kishin Powered."
Whoosh~
[Ryu-Kishin Powered, 1600 ATK, Fiend]
Circles of light rose from Ryu-Kishin Powered's feet as Keith (Marik) offered this monster as a tribute.
"Appear, the most powerful demon monster from the pitch-black abyss, grant me the power of infinite hatred and being hated."
Keith (Marik) raised a Monster Card in his hand.
Boom boom boom~
Massive dark energy eroded the area.
A gigantic demon devoured Ryu-Kishin Powered and strengthened itself using the tributed monster's power.
Great Maju Garzett!
"Great Maju Garzett, this card's ATK becomes double the original ATK of 1 monster Tributed for its Tribute Summon."
"Ryu-Kishin Powered has 1600 ATK..."
[Great Maju Garzett: 0 → 3200 ATK]
Roar!!
This massive demon monster's ATK had already surpassed the 3000 ATK mark of Blue-Eyes White Dragon. Its terrifying aura permeated the entire field.
Making one shudder.
"To think it's this monster card, this ATK is no joke in the early stages." Yousei's expression became slightly more serious; even if Blue-Eyes White Dragon came, it would get wrecked by "Great Maju Garzett".
Great Maju Garzett was a powerful rare card that Keith himself obtained after joining the Ghouls organization.
"You are the loser, Yu Miao." Keith (Marik) entered the Battle Phase.
Great Maju Garzett crossed its arms and spewed thick black mist from its mouth, enveloping Dark Magician Girl.
At the last moment, Yu Miao seemed to see Dark Magician Girl's lips part and curse: "F--k you!"
Yu Miao: ???
He thought he must have misheard.
Why would Dark Magician Girl curse?
Boom~
The sound of an explosion.
The battle damage began to affect Yu Miao.
[Yu Miao: 2000 LP → 800 LP]
