"This is the effect of the 'nitration device'."

Saki explained, "When an equipped monster is destroyed in battle and sent to the graveyard, it inflicts damage to the opponent equal to the ATK of that equipped monster."

The attack power of "Crimson Dragon - Right Crimson Mark" is 3000, so Yu Xi also lost 3000 points of health directly.

That's the real reason for the damage just now.

"Hmph, now, Yuki, your life points are lower than Saki's. And the current situation can be described as life or death."

Kaiba Mashiro crossed her arms, feeling extremely proud of her maid's abilities.

"The 'Bow of the Summoning God' can counter three strange effects, and both of Saki's face-down cards are counter traps. You're basically doomed next turn. Seriously, if you really want to be my nemesis, you'd better find a way to break out of this predicament! Don't disappoint me!"

"Wait, I never said I wanted to be your nemesis."

You Xi said with a hint of helplessness.

Well, is this a tradition of the Kaiba family? He had heard Hoshino Mai mention that many people from the Kaiba family in this world have an unusual obsession with the concept of nemesis.

It seems that even in a different world, this hasn't changed much.

Well, the other characteristic of being "rich" hasn't changed either.

But at least one thing Kaiba Mashiro said was right: he had to find a way to break through this situation, and to do that, he was still missing the most crucial card.

"There's nothing else to do. My turn is over."

"My turn, draw a card!"

Protected by the Sword of Light, Saki was unable to attack Yuuki any further, so she announced a rotation.

Yu Xi also drew the key card that would determine the outcome of the battle without hesitation.

At the same time, Saki spoke up, "During the Preparation Phase, the effect of 'Spectrum Soufflé' activates. Remove materials and reselect 'Chocolate Pudding Platter' to grant it resistance. At that moment, the effects of 'Spectrum Soufflé' and 'Morley Dessert Salon' activate. Return two 'Morley Dessert' monsters from the Graveyard to the hand, set them as Spell/Trap Cards, and simultaneously Special Summon 'Morley Dessert Pudding Princess' back to the Deck in Defense Position based on the effect of 'Morley Dessert Ticket'."

Even omitting the effects of the cards, after a series of familiar maneuvers, Saki had another card and monster on her field.

That face-down card and "Pudding Princess" aren't much of a threat yet, but so many monsters are making Yuki's disadvantages even more obvious. Besides, she also has the buff from "Mana Spring" in her back row.

If Youxi doesn't do something this round, he will inevitably suffer a devastating blow in the next round.

"Mr. Yuki, do you want to surrender? It's actually quite impressive that you've fought this far. Even for Miss Mashiro, it would be virtually impossible for her to turn the tide after I've set up this formation."

Saki asked Yuki.

But You Xi shook her head.

"No, I already have a way to reverse this, Saki-san. I'm sorry, but I've already won this duel!"

"So confident?"

A look of surprise flashed in Saki's eyes: "Could it be that you, Mr. Yuuki, have a card with the effect that [activation and effect cannot be negated]?"

In her memory, such cards should be extremely rare.

“I don’t have that kind of card, but there’s another solution to this situation—but before that, if I’m not mistaken, Ms. Saki, your two face-down counter traps should have the restriction that they can only be activated if there are no monsters in the graveyard, right?”

Did you guess it?

"After all, you've made it very obvious."

You Xi said, "You could have used the 'Glasses Soufflé' effect at a more crucial moment, but you used it prematurely. I can only assume you had a reason to do so, and that the purpose was to clear the graveyard's resources."

"That's right."

Saki nodded, acknowledging Yuki's guess.

"One of my two face-down cards is 'Magic Puppet Dessert Tea Break,' and the other is 'Magic Puppet Night.' They can negate one Spell/Trap and one Monster Effect activation respectively. You're actually facing one Spell/Trap counter and four Monster Effect counters, Mr. Yuuki."

Furthermore, these two counter-trap cards will have additional effects when "Pudding Princess" is on the field.

If it succeeds, it will undoubtedly corner Yu Xi.

Yuki only has 3 cards in her hand, which is not enough to sustain her compared to Saki.

"it is as expected."

However, upon hearing this news, You Xi did not despair; instead, the fighting spirit in her eyes intensified.

"Well then, let's get back to the topic we were discussing. Let me return that thought to you, Ms. Saki: your formation isn't without flaws. Now, I'll show you."

Youxi took one of the three cards in his hand, and that was the first card he used to break the deadlock.

"If your opponent controls more monsters than you, Summon 'Awakened Dark Knight Gaia' in Attack Position."

"Awakened Dark Knight Gaia, Level 7/Dark/Warrior" "ATK: 2300/DEF: 2100"

Appearing in front of Yuki was a seemingly unremarkable black knight, holding a spiral lance in both hands, a typical disguise of "Dark Knight Gaia".

Of course, it alone is not enough to break the deadlock. However, the name "Gaia" is always closely related to another series.

"Then, exclude the light-attribute 'Lemon Magical Girl' and the dark-attribute 'Dark Magician' from the graveyard."

Holding the card, the elements of light and darkness each transformed into a ball of light and disappeared into it, accompanied by Yuki's solemn and rare summoning declaration.

"One soul guides the light, and another points to the darkness. The collision of light and darkness will create a chaotic state, from which the strongest warrior who will create the world will be born."

"This summoning incantation...!"

Kaiba Mashiro and Saki Ren widened their eyes slightly, realizing that some extremely powerful force and will had awakened from the card between Yuki's fingers.

That is something that can pave the way forward and create hope, no matter when.

"—Descend, Chaos Warrior - Messenger of Creation-!"

"Chaos Warrior - Messenger of the Beginning -, Level 8/Light/Warrior" "ATK: 3000/DEF: 2500"

He opened his eyes, and the sharp sword energy, capable of cleaving the heavens and earth, was completely concealed within him.

Its appearance is exactly the same as its mortal self, but now it contains a power far greater than before.

One Normal Summon and one Special Summon, neither of which formed a Chain and had no effect. This rendered Saki's face-down card and "Divine Bow" useless.

"Ah! I see, that's the method!"

Kaiba Mashiro suddenly realized what the flaw Yuki was referring to was the moment "Opening" appeared.

"It's coming, Saki-san!"

Without giving the maid much time to observe the "opening up," Yuki decisively waved her hand and said, "Let's enter the battle phase! I'll use 'Awakened Dark Knight Gaia' to attack 'Puppet Sweets - Puff Knight,' [Awakening Spiral Shot Kill]!"

The black lance thrust forward, creating a fierce gust of wind that pierced through the body of the defending "Puff Knight" and easily shattered it.

Amidst the flying fragments, Saki said, "When 'Puff Knight' is destroyed, it returns to my hand."

"Continue, Chaos Warrior - Messenger of the Beginning - attack Apollossa, the Bow of the Summoning God!"

Without stopping, Youxi immediately launched an attack with her trump card.

A flash of cold light condensed on the blade, and with a mournful cry, it instantly struck down the goddess of the hunt—if it were a "divine bow" with 4 materials, it would be fine, but a "divine bow" with 3 materials was nothing more than a single strike from it.

[Saki Ren LP: 2500→1900]

"With the 'Divine Bow' destroyed, I can now use monster effects. Furthermore, because a monster appeared in my Graveyard, your two Counter Trap Cards will be sealed and cannot be activated."

"To think that you actually broke the deadlock without using any card effects, is this the flaw you mentioned, Mr. Yuki?"

It's impossible not to be surprised; Saki never expected that her impenetrable defenses would be so easily reversed by Yuki. But upon reflection, in that situation, it was indeed the only way to break the deadlock.

This is also the only flaw in this formation.

"However, by that time, Mr. Yuki, all your monsters have attacked. I still have a bunch of 'Magical Sweets' on my field, so you still haven't escaped the disadvantage."

You Xi laughed upon hearing this.

"That's hard to say, Saki-san, my battle phase isn't over yet."

"what?"

Upon hearing Yuki's words, Saki realized that Yuki's "Chaos Warrior - Messenger of Creation" on the field had not retracted its blade.

On the contrary, an even more intense aura and power surged and exploded on its snow-white blade.

"When an opponent's monster is destroyed in battle, the effect of 'Opening Up' activates! Only once, it can continue to attack—Go! 'Chaos Warrior,' attack 'Chocolate Pudding Platter'!"

"How can it be!"

Before Saki could say anything, Kaiba Mashiro exclaimed, "The 'Chocolate Pudding Platter' has a much higher attack power!"

Indeed, "Chocolate Pudding Platter" has 3800 points, while "Opening Up" only has the same output as "Right Red Mark," and is not a match for the former.

But Yu Xi naturally had her reasons for doing so.

"Before damage calculation, activate the effect of 'Chaos Messenger' in your hand! Send this card to the Graveyard. This turn, 'Opening Up' gains 1500 ATK, and any opponent's monster that battles it gains its original ATK during damage calculation!"

The handcuffs used by the "Chaos Warrior" were discarded; one's power was enhanced, while the other's power was restored. The difference in strength was instantly reversed.

"Chaos Warrior - Messenger of the Beginning -, ATK: 3000 → 4500"

"Puppet Dessert - Pudding Princess Chocolate Pudding Platter, ATK: 3800→2500"

"Shatter everything, Chaos Warrior! Attack! [Double-Slash Breaker]!!"

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah!"

[Saki Ren LP: 1900→0]

The power of chaos condensed into a terrifying sword intent, cleaving the entire arena and spreading straight beyond the battlefield.

The power to create something new is terrifying!

Chapter 159 The Prophecy of the Child?

The blade flashed brilliantly, capable of cleaving even the chaos in two.

With this stunning slash, everything in the environment of the "Puppet Dessert Castle" and Saki's field was torn apart.

This also determined the outcome of the entire duel.

"Yay! (＾－＾)V! Xiaoxi won!"

Hoshino Mai, who was watching the battle from a distance, was extremely excited and happy. If she weren't afraid of attracting attention, she would have even wanted to share this joy with Izayoi Yuki, who shared the binoculars with her.

However, even without doing that, the two of them are already attractive enough—in every sense of the word.
