“You want…to duel with me?” Yuei Vu confirmed again.
Not even Marik apparently knew about it: “Sister?”
“Yes.” Ishizu nodded affirmatively.
She glanced at Marik, then looked back at Yuei Vu again.
“For three thousand years, protecting the secrets of the Pharaoh’s memory is the supreme mission of our family.” She said slowly, “Although this lofty mission has not been completed yet, the fact is… This long watch is finally coming to an end.”
Marik was silent on the side but also lost in thought.
Now the pharaoh’s soul that has wandered for three thousand years has finally awakened in a suitable host, and the three Egyptian Gods have also been revived in modern times, and all the puzzles that piece together the pharaoh’s lost memory have been assembled.
The mission of the Tomb Keeper clan, which has transcended three thousand years of time and space, was finally coming to an end. They are about to be freed from the bondage of this fate.
But after that?
Their lives existed for this mission, and they have been like this for generations. And now that this ultimate goal was about to be accomplished, what would they do with the rest of their lives?“I am a member of the Tomb Keeper family, but I am also a duelist.” Ishizu said, “A duelist can always find the answer through a duel.”
While speaking, she still glanced at Marik intentionally or unintentionally.
It seemed that it was not only herself, but she also hoped that Marik could learn something through this duel.
“……I see.”
Yuei Vu let out a long breath.
It wasn’t the first time he was suddenly pulled to play cards. The Ishtar siblings helped him a lot on this trip to Egypt, so a game of cards was not a big deal.
So soon, the two stood apart in the backyard of Ishtar’s house.
Although Yuei Vu’s current Duel Disk can automatically shuffle the cards, before the start of the game, he exchanged and shuffled the deck with Ishizu according to the habits of modern duels.
After shuffling each other’s deck and inserting the deck back into the Duel Disk, Yuei Vu thought of something and smiled half-jokingly: “This time, do you want to use the Millennium Necklace to predict the future?”
Unexpectedly, Ishizu paused and immediately made a standard ninety-degree bow: “That duel… I am very sorry if I left you with a bad experience…”
Bowing so standard and apologizing so sincerely made Yuei Vu feel a little embarrassed: “It’s okay, I just said it casually, don’t take it to heart…
…then it’s time to go. ”
Ishizu opened the Duel Disk and nodded.
“Duel!” x2
【Yuei Vu, LP 4000】
【Ishizu, LP 4000】
“It’s me who goes first, draw.” Ishizu was the first mover.
Yuei Vu thought about it.
He remembered that the deck used by Ishizu should be mainly Fairy-Type. In the original work, her trump card was the trap card “Exchange of the Spirit”, but she didn’t use this card in the last duel, and Yuei Vu thought it was unlikely that she would use it this time.
Maybe it’s still an angel-themed deck?
Like Counter Fairy?
“I set a monster on the field.” Ishizu said, drawing another card from her hand, “Set an S/T card, I end my turn.”
This arrangement still made it impossible to tell what deck she was using.
“My turn.” Yuei Vu said, “Summon the ‘Breaker the Magical Warrior’.”
A handsome wizard warrior in the style of a mage appeared on the stage, holding a sharp silver sword in his right hand and a red shield in his left hand.
[Breaker the Magical Warrior, ATK 1600]
“When Breaker the Magical Warrior is summoned, place 1 Spell Counter on him, and he gains 300 ATK for each Spell Counter he has.” Yuei Vu said, “By removing 1 Spell Counter from this card, I can destroy 1 Spell/Trap on the field.
I remove the counter of Breaker the Magical Warrior and destroy the set card in your back row. ”
[Breaker the Magical Warrior, ATK 1600 → ATK 1900 → ATK 1600]
The indicator light on the magic warrior’s shield was lit at the moment of summoning but then went out again. The magic warrior swung his sword and swept out, the crescent-shaped sword energy volleyed in the air, cutting the set card in Ishizu’s back row in half.
That set card immediately revealed its true form.
“Continuous Trap – Necrovalley Temple.” Ishizu said calmly, “When this card is destroyed by an opponent’s effect and sent to your GY, I can Set 1 ‘Necrovalley’ Spell/Trap from my Deck, except ‘Necrovalley Temple’.”
She pulled out the deck and drew a card from it.
“I put the Field Spell ‘Necrovalley’ in my Field Zone.”
Seeing that the card was placed in the face-down state to the field area on Ishizu’s Duel Disk, Yuei Vu couldn’t help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
Are you actually playing the “Gravekeeper” deck?
This also seems to be quite reasonable.
After all, the Tomb Keepers…shouldn’t they be playing the Gravekeeper deck?!
But this deck was a bit of a headache.
The Gravekeeper archetype itself was not strong, but the core of its deck, the Field Spell called “Necrovalley”, had powerful interference effects that could make countless meta players many years later fall into a sticky situation.
Necrovalley (Field Spell Card): All “Gravekeeper’s” monsters gain 500 ATK/DEF. Cards in the GY cannot be banished. Negate any card effect that would move a card in the GY to a different place.
Literally the valley of “eternal sleep” – as long as this field existed, the monsters entering the graveyard were basically equivalent to “eternal sleep”. For those decks that relied heavily on graveyard resources, this card was simply a devastating blow.
“Then enter the Battle Phase.” Yuei Vu said, “Breaker the Magical Warrior, attack the face-down monster.”
The magic warrior rushed out with a lunge, the blade was covered with dark red magic power, drawing a clear and sharp trajectory in the air!
The face-down card was turned over under the sword energy, and what appeared was a big bald man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, with a figure like Zhu Bajie!
[Gravekeeper’s Guard, DEF 1900]
With the crisp sound of metal and iron clanging, the sharp sword of the magician warrior was firmly resisted, and the force of the countershock made him stagger and take two steps back.
【Yuei Vu, LP 4000 → LP 3700】
“Gravekeeper’s Guard’s FLIP effect is activated.” Ishizu said, “Target 1 monster the opponent controls; return that target to the hand.
I return the ‘Breaker the Magical Warrior’ to your hand. ”
The bald grave keeper chanted a series of incantations, and the magic warrior’s whole body was immediately bound by golden enchantments. The swordsman couldn’t help but raise his head, hummed dully, and immediately turned into a beam of golden light and shot it back into Yuei Vu’s hand.
It should be said that it was worthy of the “Gravekeeper” deck, which was somewhat related to the underworld…
“Set a card, I end my turn.” Yuei Vu said.
