"At the End Phase, I Special Summon the ‘Samsara Lotus' in my Graveyard again."
[Samsara Lotus, DEF 0]
"Then sacrifice the ‘Samsara Lotus' to me," Yubel said, "so that I will not be destroyed by my own effects."
To maintain her presence on the field, Yubel must sacrifice a monster at the end of each turn, otherwise she would explode.
With such a natural physique, it was not easy to be satisfied, and she couldn't do anything about it.
Yubel let out a long breath.
100 LP remaining, just the last little bit.
La Mort lay on the ground with his arms and legs spread out, motionless, and only the slow rise and fall of his chest could prove that he was still alive.
After a long while, he sat up slowly and looked at Yubel expressionlessly.
"I underestimated you." He said slowly, "Perhaps you still have the soul of a warrior in your body. At least, you are still determined to do whatever it takes for the king.""As long as I am here, I will never allow you to appear in front of him." Yubel said coldly, "Unless you step over my body."
"……Okay."
La Mort pondered for a moment, stood up calmly, and patted his wide black robe.
"I admit that I did underestimate you. But not now."
La Mort suddenly became serious, and his aura changed, as if the whole person suddenly turned into a scimitar blade, ready to be unsheathed at any time.
"This duel ends here… In this turn."
Yubel held his breath.
"My turn, draw!" said La Mort. "At the Standby Phase, the effect of ‘The Grand Spellbook Tower' is activated.
If I have a Spellcaster-Type monster on my side of the field or in my Graveyard: During my Standby Phase, I can place 1 ‘Spellbook' Spell Card from my Graveyard on the bottom of my Deck, then draw 1 card."
A card popped out of the graveyard.
"I return the Quick-Play Spell ‘Spellbook of Judgment' to my deck, and then draw a card."
Yubel held her breath.
It's that troublesome card again…
"Then activate the Spell Card ‘Spellbook of Secrets' from my hand," said La Mort. "Add 1 ‘Spellbook' card from my deck to my hand.
I add ‘Spellbook of Judgment' to my hand again."
It seemed that in La Mort's deck, all Spellbooks might have three copies, but this "Spellbook of Judgment" was unique.
After all, it was a forbidden spell with god-like power, and a single card was enough to become the core of the entire deck.
"After the Quick-Play Spell ‘Spellbook of Judgment' is activated, according to the number of Spell Cards activated in this turn, the corresponding number of ‘Spellbooks' can be retrieved to the hand at the end of the turn."
After a pause, he smiled coldly.
"Of course, you may not see that time."
Although he still had a lot of resources to search the deck, he seemed to think it was unnecessary. La Mort waved his hand: "High Priestess of Prophecy's effect activated!
Once per turn, remove 1 ‘Spellbook' Spell Card in the hand or graveyard from the game, and destroy a card on the field."
A card in his graveyard popped out.
"I remove the ‘Spellbook Organization' that was discarded to the graveyard at the end of the last turn from the game. Disappear, Yubel!"
The magician sister lazily flicked her ruby-like hair, holding the Spellbook in one hand and gently raising the other hand. The magic light stream from the white-gloved palm hit Yubel's clone head-on!
Seeing that her clone was about to be destroyed, Yubel curled her lips and smiled.
"Heh, I've been waiting for this moment." She sneered, "Do you think I forgot the effect of that troublesome magician sister?"
"Oh?" La Mort raised his eyebrows.
"You will use High Priestess of Prophecy's effect to destroy me, it is within my calculations! The moment you use this effect, you have stepped into a deadly trap!
Open the set card: Trap Card – Guard Mines!
When a card is activated with an effect that would target and destroy 1 monster I control: Negate the effect and destroy that card.
After that, inflict 500 points of damage to the opponent!"
[La Mort, LP 100]
"……I see." La Mort understood, "Not only did you defend against High Priestess of Prophecy's effect, but you also used this effect to counterattack…"
With 100 LP remaining, this strike would undoubtedly be his defeat!
"It's you who's going to disappear!" Yubel said, "Disappear into the depths of hell and never come back!"
High Priestess of Prophecy's spell bombardment hit the golden energy layer, causing a series of explosions and backlashes!
It felt like the detonation of a mine in a minefield, causing a series of chain reactions, and red flames burst out one after another, like a fire dragon, backlashing all the way toward the magician!
The high priestess covered her face in fear, and her red hair fluttered in the hot wind. The flames quickly devoured her until La Mort's outline disappeared in the sea of fire.
The fire illuminated Yubel's cheeks, and she panted heavily facing the sea of fire.
Success.
After the Guard Mines is successfully triggered, it will cause 500 points of reflected damage. This offense should have passed without a doubt…
……!?
The flames dissipated, and La Mort was still standing there with a smile on his face, and even the High Priestess of Prophecy in front of him was still there.
The red-haired magician patted his chest and let out a long sigh, looking a little scared.
Yubel gritted his teeth: "How could it be…"
"Don't worry, our chain is not over yet." He smiled, "I chain to your ‘Guard Mines' with this card-
—— Quick-Play Spell ‘Spellbook of Wisdom'!
Target 1 Spellcaster monster on the field, then choose one of the two effects to activate.
During this turn, that face-up monster won't be affected by other Spell effects; or won't be affected by Trap effects."
He pointed to the high priestess on the field.
"Obviously, I will make ‘High Priestess of Prophecy' become unaffected by Trap effects this turn. So your ‘Guard Mines' cannot negate her effect, nor can it destroy her."
"But the 500 points of damage will still be calculated!" Yubel said, "Monsters can be unaffected by Trap effects, but you can't. Disappear!"
"Unfortunately, that won't work either." La Mort shook his head, "I chain to ‘Spellbook of Wisdom', with the Quick-Play Spell ‘Emergency Provisions'! Send any number of other Spell/Trap Cards I control to the Graveyard; gain 1000 LP for each card sent to the Graveyard this way.
I send the currently activated ‘Spellbook of Wisdom' to the graveyard to restore 1000 LP.
In this way, my LP will be restored to 1100 before your 500 points of damage take effect."
After a pause, he pointed to Yubel on the opposite field.
"And because the High Priestess of Prophecy is not affected by trap effects, your clone must continue to be destroyed!"
Yubel gritted his teeth: "Then I chain to ‘Emergency Provisions' with the trap card ‘Spellbinding Illusion'! Select 1 monster the opponent controls. It loses 500 ATK, and its effect is negated." (manga card)
After a pause, she said: "Although ‘Spellbinding Illusion' is also a trap card, it is activated on the same chain as ‘Spellbook of Wisdom'.
Before the effect of ‘Spellbook of Wisdom' takes effect, High Priestess of Prophecy's effect will be sealed!"
A long chain of settlements, the result was that the High Priestess of Prophecy's ability was bound – the magic power shock that was finally brewed hit a layer of magic barrier when it hit Yubel fiercely, which blocked the shock and also bound the High Priestess of Prophecy's power.
[High Priestess of Prophecy, ATK 2500 → ATK 2000]
Then the power of the Guard Mines backfired, and a series of explosions swept through La Mort. But he managed to suck blood through "Emergency Provisions" before the flames came, and successfully withstood the bombing.
[La Mort, LP 100 → LP 1100 → LP 600]
The final result was that both monsters were still standing on the field, and neither could do anything to the other.
But Yubel did not take it lightly.
Although her clone had the effect of not being destroyed by battle and all damage would be rebounded, she knew that the opponent still had a big killermove in his hand.
At the end of the last turn, through "Spellbook of Judgment", the third "Spellbook of Fate" was retrieved.
Sure enough, immediately afterward, La Mort showed the card: "Quick-Play Spell ‘Spellbook of Fate'! By banishing 3 ‘Spellbook' Spells from my GY, banish 1 card the opponent controls!"
But Yubel has predicted even this move!
"Don't even think about it!" She shouted, "Open the set card: Continuous Trap——
——Imperial Iron Wall!"
The card flipped over, and the red trap card surface bloomed with golden light!
"Oh?" La Mort raised an eyebrow.
"As long as it exists on the field, both players… cannot banish cards!"
A complete blockade, like an invisible wall of iron walls that encompasses the entire duel arena, within the blockade of this iron wall, nothing was allowed to be exiled to different dimensions!
La Mort was silent for a long time.
"Do you even consider the countermeasures against the ‘Spellbook of Fate'?"
"I said." Yubel said word by word, "I will not allow you to appear in front of him, go to hell here!"
Yes, this is her duty and mission, a loyal guardian.
She has always done this. If there was anyone who threatened Judai and may become an obstacle, she would do whatever it takes to eliminate him.
Even if she turned into a devil.
"……I miscalculated."
La Mort said and drew another card from his hand.
"I summon ‘Temperance of Prophecy'."
[Temperance of Prophecy, ATK 1000]
Yubel stared at the opponent without blinking.
A new Prophecy monster…what is it this time?
"To be honest, I didn't expect to be forced to this point beforehand." La Mort said, "I actually had to use that form to deal with you…"
Yubel held her breath.
"The effect of ‘Temperance of Prophecy'." La Mort said, "During my Main Phase, if I have activated a ‘Spellbook' Spell Card previously this turn: I can Tribute this card; Special Summon 1 Level 5 or higher LIGHT or DARK Spellcaster-Type monster from my Deck."
"!"
Yubel was shocked again.
Any Level 5 or higher LIGHT or DARK Spellcaster-Type monster!?
Is this a monster-level search ability again?
"This is the end!" La Mort's magic power burst out, and his face changed instantly, "This is my ultimate form, the magical angel born from the god's magic-
– Level 9! World of Prophecy, summon!!!"
