Yu-Gi-Oh! The Pitfall Hero

My deck! Answer my call!

Asuka closed her eyes and prayed silently before drawing cards from her deck.

"My turn! Draw a card!"

She glanced at the card she had just drawn and raised her eyebrows slightly.

Although it was a little different from what I had imagined, it was still alright.

Asuka just drew a card, which is a magic card called "Pot of Greed".

Effect: Draw two cards from your deck.

The effect is simple and straightforward: you get a free card and can also filter your deck for additional cards.

It is one of the cards that the main characters in the anime most often draw when they are in dire straits.

"I activate the Spell Card 'Pot of Greed' from my hand. According to its effect, I can draw two cards from my deck." Asuka placed the Spell Card she had just drawn into the back row of the Duel Disk and activated the card.

"..." Looking at the huge card image of the [Pot of Greed] projected in front of him, Yusei couldn't help but think of Professor Chronos.

He jumped into the lake as soon as he was discovered.

He definitely wouldn't drown, given that he had all the tools he needed to commit the crime.

If I remember correctly, Professor Kunonos should be observing this duel nearby at this time.

Yusei carefully observed the nearby water surface and quickly found Professor Kunonos's trail.

He was floating on the water, watching Yusei and Asuka's duel.

Professor Kunonos couldn't help but worry because Asuka was at a disadvantage.

This special admission student... is really troublesome!

It's incredible that they were able to turn the tide in such a desperate situation!

He noticed that Yusei's gaze was directed in his direction, and he was startled, instinctively shifting his body.

Professor Kunonos, with a look of surprise on his face, met Yusei's gaze.

090 Master Yusei?

"Well!"

Noticing Yusei's teasing gaze, Professor Kunonos subconsciously lowered his body.

But it was all in vain.

Just as Yusei was about to say something, he heard the sound of oars cutting through the water behind him.

Everyone's attention was drawn to the source of the sound.

Yuki Judai and Marufuji Sho were seen sitting in a small boat, rowing vigorously and rapidly approaching Yusei's location.

"Oh? Isn't that a poor student?"

"Why are you only getting here now...?"

Professor Kunonos looked surprised.

He was unaware that the letter he wrote to Yuki Judai in Asuka's name had been disposed of by the girls and had not been delivered to Yuki Judai.

In his view, Yuki Jaden was just late.

"That wretched student! He keeps interrupting my plans..."

Professor Kunonos gritted his teeth as he looked at Jaden Yuki, who had moored his small boat next to Yusei.

"Yusei... what's going on here?" Jaden Yuki stood up from the small boat and looked around.

When he arrived, Yusei's duel with Asuka was nearing its end.

Just as Jaden Yuki thought, the monster on Yusei's field was the giant he had just seen in the dormitory.

"Ah! Asuka-sama is having a duel with Yusei-sama!"

"Please don't disturb them, okay?"

Seeing that Judai Yuki and Sho Marufuji were watching them, Junko and Momoe frowned.

In their eyes, Yuki Judai was arrogant, talkative, and liked to make sarcastic remarks after winning, with a terrible personality; while Marufuji Sho looked timid and was hiding behind Yuki Judai, blushing and secretly glancing at their faces.

Both being boys of the same Osiris Red genus, these two are in no way inferior to Yusei in terms of appearance, temperament, personality, or speech.

"Yusei...sir?" Upon hearing Asuka's two best friends address Yusei, a bewildered Jaden Yuki scratched his head.

"What! I'm so envious... no..." Marufuji Sho felt incredibly nervous being stared at by three beautiful girls, and his words became somewhat incoherent.

"Well... it's a long story."

Seeing the two newcomers staring at him with strange looks, Yusei wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

Being addressed with such respect by a beautiful girl of the same age, Yusei did indeed become a little arrogant.

Seeing the reactions of Yuki Judai and Marufuji Sho, he realized just how special Junko and Momoe's way of addressing him was in other people's eyes.

Interrupted by Jaden Yuki, Yusei abandoned his plan to tease Professor Chronos and refocused his attention on the duel.

"Are you done with the small talk?" Asuka, who hadn't spoken since the beginning, slowly asked after noticing Yusei's change in demeanor.

"Ah! Bring it on!" Yusei extended his right fist at Asuka, telling her not to worry about them and to go all out.

Noticing the current situation, Jaden Yuki and Sho Marufuji buried their questions in their hearts and silently stepped aside to watch the duel between Yusei and Asuka.

……

Because of the effect of [Pot of Greed], Asuka drew two new cards from her deck.

She stared at the card she had drawn, a slight smile playing on her lips.

"!?" Yusei raised an eyebrow but didn't say anything.

Could it be that she actually managed to draw the card she wanted?

There can't be such a coincidence...

"It seems Lady Luck is on my side!" Asuka smiled slightly, then showed Yusei the [Monster Resurrection] card in her hand.

Upon seeing this card, Yusei immediately understood Asuka's plan.

"Monster Resurrection? Reviving a monster from the graveyard? What's wrong with this card?" Noticing the expressions on the two faces, Marufuji Sho couldn't help but ask.

However, none of the people who were intently watching the duel responded to his words.

"..." Marufuji Sho, having made a fool of himself, chuckled awkwardly and obediently shut his mouth.

"I activate the Spell Card [Monster Resurrection] from my hand!"

"Based on this card's effect, I can Special Summon a monster from my Graveyard to the field!"

"Revive! [Electronic Ice Blade Hand]!"

Asuka stretched out her right hand towards the void in front of her.

As her voice faded, a tornado suddenly formed on the field.

The figure of the electronic ice skater appeared as the tornado gradually disappeared.

She glided slowly towards Asuka with graceful dance steps.

"Even if you revive [Electronic Ice Blade Hand], with her mere 2100 attack power, how do you plan to defeat my Earth Core Hero with 2700 attack power on the field?"

Yusei posed his question to Asuka.

"Entertainment time is over~" Asuka smiled confidently as she showed Yusei another card from her hand as an answer to his question.

"Equipment Magic [Fusion Weapon] activated!"

"I equip this card to the [Cyber ​​Ice Blade] on the field."

-

[Fusion Weapon]

(Equip Magic Card)

Effect: Can only be equipped by a Fusion Monster. Increases the equipped Monster's ATK and DEF by 1500.

-

This card in the anime doesn't have the restriction that only Fusion Monsters of Level 6 or lower can equip it, so even a Level 7 Cyber ​​Ice Blade can equip this card.

Influenced by the equipment magic card, the right hand of the electronic ice blade hand was enveloped in light and then transformed into the shape of a double-particle halberd cannon. Its attack and defense power also increased by 1500 points, exceeding the Earth Core Warrior's 2700 attack power.

(Attack power of the electronic ice skater: 2100→3600)

"what?!"

"Wow, that's powerful! The attack power has suddenly increased to 3600 points!"

Seeing the significant increase in attack power of the electronic ice blade user on the other side, Jaden Yuki couldn't help but sigh.

"Well~ As expected of Asuka-sama."

"Yusei-sama only has 200 LP left. After this attack, Asuka-sama will be victorious!"

Noticing the confident expression on Asuka's face, Junko and Momoe responded.

"Redeem yourself, Yusei!"

"【Electronic Ice Blade Hand】Attack 【Elemental HERO - Core Warrior】!" Asuka, turning her body to the side, gave the attack command to the monster in front of her.

Upon receiving the order, the electronic ice blade user nodded, then used his left hand to support his right hand and raised the double-particle halberd cannon in front of Earth Core Man.

A large amount of cyan energy gathered at the center of the halberd cannon in her right hand, and then she fired it at the giant Earth Core Warrior.

The electronic ice blade hand's body is only the size of the Earth Core Hero's palm.

Therefore, the energy beam emitted from her hand was nothing more than a tiny firefly to Earth Core Warrior.

However, this seemingly insignificant cyan ray of light possesses immense power that should not be underestimated.
