Traveling in reverse through the Yu-Gi-Oh! world with the MD system

"It's a real shame that this [Galaxy Knight] can be Normal Summoned directly without Tribute if there is a [Photon] monster or a [Galaxy] monster on your field!"

Now, I have two Level 8 monsters on the field! I'll stack my Level 8 [Galaxy Swordsman] and [Galaxy Knight] to create a stacking network!

Recalling the lines he shouted during his duel with Kaito in the ARC-V world, Soleva began to call out loudly.

"O galaxy shining in the darkness! Vengeful spirits, become my servants! Xyz Summon! Descend, [Galaxy-Eyes Wave Dragon]!"

With the same azure body as [Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon], but with more vibrant crimson and brilliant gold dragons on its armor and wing roots, it spread its wings of radiating light waves and came onto Soreva's field.

"[Galaxy-Eyes Lightwave Dragon]!?"

Looking at this dragon, whose form resembled his own [Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon], Kaito was filled with shock. But before he could dwell on this shock, Soleva had already activated the effect of [Galaxy-Eyes Light Wave Dragon]:

"[Galaxy-Eyes Lightwave Dragon]'s effect activates! Once per turn, you can remove 1 Xyz Material, then target 1 face-up monster your opponent controls, and gain control of that monster until the end of this turn!"

Go forth, [Galaxy-Eye Beam Dragon], [Beam Projection]!

Several beams of light, flowing with iridescent colors, shot out from the wings of the [Galaxy-Eyed Photon Dragon], quickly enveloping its body and causing it to turn into specks of light with a mournful cry.

However, these points of light quickly reassembled on Soreva's field. However, the reassembled form was not the [Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon], but another [Galaxy-Eyes Lightwave Dragon] with a lighter color.

Soreva quickly provided an explanation:

"Monsters controlled by this effect have their effects negated, their attack power becomes 3000, and their card name changes to [Galaxy-Eyes Wave Dragon].

Next, the battle begins! The first strike: [Galaxy-Eyed Photon Dragon] transforms into [Light Wave Dragon] and attacks [Dawnbreaker]! [Annihilation Light Wave Stream]!

Amidst the impact of colorful light waves, [Dawnbreaker]'s body shattered instantly. However, perhaps due to Kaito's conscious defense, the only remaining [Dawnbreaker] was in a defensive stance, unable to harm Kaito even after being destroyed.

"Then, the second strike, a direct attack from [Galaxy-Eyed Light Wave Dragon]! The second [Annihilation Light Wave Stream]!"

This time, no monster could withstand it. The colorful light wave hit Kaito's body directly, sending him flying. His LP instantly dropped from 4000 points to 1000 points.

"Sigh, is it really impossible to solve this once and for all?"

With a sigh, Soreva's gaze then fell upon the [Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon] on his field, which had now transformed into [Lightwave Dragon].

"However, we can't give this [Photon Dragon] back to Kaito no matter what."

Having thought this through, Soreva immediately raised his hand and began to announce:

"Now, I apply the effect of [Galaxy-Eyes Aurora Wave Dragon] from my Extra Deck! This card can be Xyz Summoned once per turn by overlaying it onto [Aurora Wave Dragon] monsters you control!"

Therefore, I used [Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon] transformed into [Galaxy-Eyes Lightwave Dragon] for a single-target Xyz attack!

Almost instantly, the [Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon] transformed into the [Galaxy-Eyes Light Wave Dragon], which became a ball of light and flew into the air, transforming into a sun radiating colorful rainbow light above the dome of the dueling arena.

"O galaxy that shines in the darkness! Now unleash your ultimate brilliance and become a beacon illuminating the heavens and earth! Ascend to super-powerful transformation! Descend, [Galaxy-Eye Aurora Wave Dragon]!"

Then, accompanied by Soleva's shout, the colorful sun gradually transformed into a dragon beast even larger than the [Galaxy-Eyes Wave Dragon] below in the rainbow light, spreading two pairs of dazzling dragon wings and slowly descending onto Soleva's field.

It's a pity that along with [Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon], [Galaxy-Eyes Heavy Armor Photon Dragon] is also unusable. Otherwise, Soleva would have definitely stacked [Heavy Armor Photon Dragon] on top of [Aurora Wave Dragon] to give Kaito another shock.

"Finally, I'll set one card face down, and the turn ends!"

"Then, my turn, draw a card!"

When it was Kaito's turn, he looked at the cards in his hand and immediately spoke.

"I'm ending my turn just like that!"

Did you miss? Or did you get stuck?

As he made this guess, Soreva drew a card and it was his turn. This time, he drew [Galaxy-Eyes Residual Light Dragon], but there was no need to summon it at all.

"Then, this is the final blow! [Galaxy-Eye Wave Dragon]'s direct attack! [Annihilation Wave Stream]!"

But at that moment, Kaito revealed the only card in his hand:

"Now! I activate the effect of [Photon Jumper] in my hand! When your opponent's monster declares an attack, this card is Special Summoned from my hand! And I am forced to end my Battle Phase! But as a price, I will skip my next Battle Phase!"

As the light spots surged, a white-clad warrior holding a red cloth leaped out, waving the red cloth to block the rainbow-colored light waves pouring from the mouth of the [Galaxy-Eyed Light Wave Dragon].

决斗继续。

Chapter 266: Victory Belongs to the Deck

"This is troublesome, I've never seen this card before..."

Looking at the [Photon Jumper] on the Kaito arena, Soreva couldn't help but show a bitter expression. He really didn't recognize any cards like this that hadn't been included in the Mega Drive, except for those like Pearl Tears that had been famous for a long time.

"A lower-level 4..."

Looking at the level of [Photon Jumper], Soreva felt even more distressed. If he remembered correctly, there were a few Rank 4 monsters that could summon [Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon].

However, there's nothing he can do now; at most, he can only set [Metroid] to attack mode and end his turn.

"Then, my turn, draw a card!"

He drew another card, and after drawing the [Photon Jumper] that saved his life in the previous draw, this time the card he got finally gave Kaito a glimmer of hope for victory, and a smile involuntarily appeared on his face.

"I Normal Summon [Photon Forerunner]! Now, I have two Level 4 monsters with [Photon] in their names on the field! I'll stack the Level 4 [Photon Jumper] and [Photon Jumper] together! To build a stacking network!"

Show yourself! [Radiant Emperor Gellerchian]!

Amidst the brilliance of the Xyz Summon, a warrior clad in pristine white metallic armor and wielding two blue-white lightsabers appeared on Kaito's field.

Kaito then immediately activated the effect of [Radiant Emperor Galekshion]:

"[Gelexian]'s effect activated! Remove two Xyz Materials, and you can Special Summon [Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon] from your Deck!"

"My servant, embodiment of light! Now descend upon this place once more!"

At Kaito's call, [Radiant Emperor Galekshion] merged his two swords together and raised them high, and two Xyz Materials instantly merged into the hilts of the two swords.

Then, the twin swords in [Galeksien]'s hands instantly turned golden and shot straight into the sky. In this golden light, the dark red trident belonging to [Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon] slowly descended, transforming once again into the appearance of [Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon], and roared at [Galaxy-Eyes Lightwave Dragon].

"It's not over yet! At this very moment, I activate the effect of [Photon Jumper], which was sent to the Graveyard as Xyz Material! If this card is sent to the Graveyard, you can add one [Photon] Spell/Trap Card or [Galaxy] Spell/Trap Card from your Deck to your hand!"

With a flick of his wrist, Kaito held up the card he had chosen and displayed it before Soreva's eyes.

"I've chosen this Quick-Play Spell Card, [Super Galaxy]! This card requires you to Tribute 1 monster with 2000 or more ATK other than [Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon] on your field! You can then target 1 monster on your opponent's field with 2000 or more ATK to activate this effect!"

Therefore, I choose to release [Radiant Emperor Gellerxion], and the monster I choose is your [Galaxy-Eyes Lightwave Dragon]!

Pointing at the [Galaxy-Eyes Lightwave Dragon] on the field, Kaito said amidst the dissipating light of [Radiant Emperor Galekshion]:

"Then, Tribute your [Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon]! I can Special Summon another [Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon] from my Deck!"

With a mournful cry from the [Galaxy-Eye Lightwave Dragon], it gradually turned into specks of light and dissipated.

Subsequently, the light particles transformed from [Galaxy-Eye Lightwave Dragon] and [Radiant Emperor Galeksien] gradually converged and condensed once again into the shape of that crimson trident.

The third [Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon] in this duel has finally arrived!

"Because of the effect of [Photon Jumper], I cannot enter the combat phase, so the turn is now over!"

With two [Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragons] on the field, Kaito instantly felt more confident. Even though Soleva had a [Galaxy-Eyes Aurora Wave Dragon] with 4000 ATK on the field, he didn't think it could pose a threat to the [Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragons].

After all, [Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon] has the effect of banishing itself and the battle monster together. Therefore, its 4000 attack power will not be able to damage it.

However, [Galaxy Eye Aurora Dragon] also has its own effects.

"My turn, draw a card."

Adding the card from the top of the deck to his hand, Soreva took a deep breath and said with a touch of self-deprecation,

"It seems the duel is coming to an end. But it's kind of funny, actually. When I was playing Mega Drive, I always used [Aurora Wave Dragon] as a stepping stone to [Heavy Armor Photon Dragon]. This is the first time I've activated this effect."

After muttering to himself, Soleva opened his eyes and called out to Kaito:

"During the Standby Phase, I activate the effect of [Galaxy-Eyes Aurora Wave Dragon]! This card can be returned to the Extra Deck by returning 1 Rank 9 or lower Dragon-Type Xyz Monster from your Graveyard during the Standby Phase!"

Upon hearing this effect, Kaito merely frowned slightly. Currently, the only card in Soleva's graveyard that meets this condition is [Galaxy-Eyes Lightwave Dragon]. But what's the point of simply returning it to the deck?

But soon, the aftereffects of Soreva's shout caused Kaito's expression to change:

"After that, you can stack that monster on top of this card on your field and Special Summon it from your Extra Deck as an Xyz Summon!"

O Galaxy! Now, shed your ultimate brilliance and transform once more into the light waves that harbor demons and gods! Supercharged Transformation! Descend once more, [Galaxy-Eyed Light Wave Dragon]!

The [Galaxy-Eyes Aurora Wave Dragon] curled up its body, and soon, a layer of colorful light particles dissipated and exploded on its body surface, leaving behind the familiar body of the [Galaxy-Eyes Aurora Wave Dragon].

"It's... [Galaxy-Eyes Lightwave Dragon] again!?"

Seeing the shock that finally showed on Kaito's face, Soleva understood. This situation was just like in the story of the hero who finally defeated the demon king, only for the demon king to crawl out from somewhere, fully healed, and wink at the hero:

"Come on, baby, let's play another round."

The problem is that the hero is still low on health after the battle!

Then, just like the previous scene, the [Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon] seized control of another [Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon], causing both Photon Dragons to perish together.

Kaito, on the other hand, was directly attacked by [Galaxy-Eyes Wave Dragon]. Under the impact of [Annihilation Wave Stream], his LP was completely reduced to zero.

Although Soreva won the duel with a perfect 4000LP victory without taking any damage on the surface, Soreva knew that he was actually quite lucky to win this duel.

If it weren't for the side effects of [Photon Jumper] preventing Kaito from entering Battle Rank, and if Kaito himself didn't seem to have many extra abilities, if Kaito had stacked two [Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragons], he might have actually been able to defeat [Galaxy-Eyes Aurora Wave Dragon], and even win.

All I can say is that this is a victory for the MD and OCG's more than 10,000 cards over the original game's meager deck.

Chapter 267 Upgraded Photon Transformation, No. Card Hunting Activated

After the duel ended, Soleva asked Dr. Fica to upgrade his transformation to the Photon Transformation, and Dr. Fica agreed, but...

Although Drew usually doesn't show much expression, for some reason, Soreva felt that Drew's face seemed even more sour today.

Soreva immediately turned to Ghosh, whose dark skin had become noticeably lighter, and asked:

"Ghosh, what's wrong with Druva? She seems to be in a bad mood."

"Don't you know? This woman really admires that guy named Kaito. She had such a great opportunity to duel him today, but she missed it."

And what surprised me even more was that you actually managed to beat Kaito in a duel. That probably made that woman even more unhappy, right?

Ghosh's answer instantly made Soreva realize what was going on:

"So this is ah……"

But perhaps because they were talking a little too loudly, Drova, who was leading the way, immediately turned around and glared at them fiercely.

"Have you two finished talking?"

Faced with Druva's fierce expression, Ghosh and Soreva simultaneously raised their hands, indicating that they would not say anything more.
