"Continuing the effects of 'Dark Magic's Ritual,' fuse 'Dark Magician' and 'Dark Chaos Ultimate Magician'! The most powerful magician born from light and darkness, who will even control chaos! Fusion Summon, 'Super Magician Warrior - Chaos Ruler'!"

"Super Magic Warrior - Chaos Ruler, Level 8/Dark/Mage/Fusion" "ATK: 3000/DEF: 2500"

"[Dark Magician] + [Chaos] Ritual Monster"

The fused magical spirals converged, transforming into a massive vortex in the air.

The "Black Magician" and the "Black Chaos Extreme Magician" flew into it one after the other, and then—a new magician, wearing a suit of gold and black chaotic magic armor and exuding a powerful aura, descended.

It swung its blade to the side, cleaving open a rift leading to the underworld.

"If a Fusion Summon is successful, the effect of 'Chaos Master' activates! Special Summon 1 LIGHT/DARK monster from your Graveyard. I will revive 'Dark Chaos Extreme Magician'!"

This allows the effect of "Dark Chaos Ultimate Magic" to suppress Kaiba Mashiro's strange effects this turn, rendering her dragons useless.

"Don't think about it!"

Kaiba Mashiro's loud shout rang out: "Chain with 'Chaos Ruler'! Activate the effect of my 'Breakthrough Skill'! Banish this card from your Graveyard, and negate the effects of 'Super Magician Warrior - Chaos Ruler' until the end of this turn!"

The power from the trap card transformed into chains, binding the hands and feet of the "Chaos Ruler." Without the latter's magical supply, the spatial passage that had been opened gradually shrank and vanished.

"Did you manage to defend against it?"

Yu Xi said, "Then let's activate the Trap Card: 'Great Sandstorm'! At the cost of being unable to enter the Battle Phase this turn, destroy up to 2 Spell/Trap Cards on the field."

"Damn it! This chain activates the effect of 'True Light,' setting the Ritual Spell 'Chaos Form' in my deck to the back row."

The third face-down card was activated, and two tornadoes immediately swept towards Kaiba Mashiro's back row. Kaiba Mashiro clearly knew this as well, and gritted his teeth to activate the card effect, but this could not stop Yuki.

"Destroy 'The Half-Dragon Maid's Rest' and 'True Light'!"

The fact that "Half-Dragon Maid's Rest" was blown away is not a big deal; the problem lies with another card.

"If 'True Light' is destroyed, all monsters on your field will be destroyed."

As the stone slab was destroyed by the storm, the flying stones instantly pierced through the entire dragon horde, leaving no survivors except for the "Dragon of the Dragons".

Mashiro Kaiba finally managed to summon all these monsters back, but now it seems like all her efforts were in vain.

"It wasn't a waste of effort at all!"

Kaiba Mashiro refuted the host's nonsense, shouting, "Although it can't be used for Xyz or Link Summoning anymore, we can still do this! Activate the Set Ritual Spell: Chaos Mode, banishing the 8-star 'Blue-Eyes White Dragon' from the Graveyard, and Ritual Summon 'Blue-Eyes Chaos Dragon'!"

"Blue-Eyes Chaos Dragon, Level 8/Dark/Dragon/Ritual" "ATK: 3000/DEF: 0"

Immersed in the power of chaos, at the cost of sacrificing its defensive capabilities, the "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" flew into the gates of chaos, and when it reappeared, it had transformed into a dark-colored chaotic dragon.

The only change was the azure color in his eyes.

"No matter what kind of monster you summon, it must be attacked by 'Sky Dragon of Osiris' upon entering the battlefield!"

Yu Xi reached out and guided the God Card to smash down the lightning ball: "[Summon Lightning Bomb]!"

"Blue-Eyes Chaos Dragon, ATK: 3000 → 1000"

"The Blue-Eyes Chaos Dragon is immune to the opponent's effects, and even 1000 attack power is enough."

Kaiba Mashiro waved her little hand forward and shouted, "Advance to Battle Rank! I'll attack 'Link Kuriboh' with 'Link Dragon'!"

"The effect of 'Link Kuriboh' activates. It releases itself, reducing the opponent's monster's ATK to 0."

"But 'Linked Dragon' won't be affected by this effect. Since 'Linked Kuriboh' has disappeared, the attack will rewind and strike 'Sky Dragon of Osiris'! [Doomsday Roar]!"

The summoned "Connecting Kuriboh," which was purely for cuteness, crashed into the "Connecting Dragon" to no avail, and then the dragon breath, entangled by five elemental spirals, hit the Crimson Dragon again.

Amidst the flames of the explosion, the gods departed, and the battlefield that followed became a battle between dragons and dragon-slaying swordsmen.

"Osiris the Sky Dragon is in Defense Position, so you won't take battle damage. But things change next, Yuki! Because the card was destroyed, Blue-Eyes Jet Dragon is resurrected from the Graveyard, and then Blue-Eyes Chaos Dragon attacks Destroyer Swordsman!"

Weakened by the [Summoning Thunder Bomb], the Blue-Eyes Chaos Dragon's combat power is no match for the [Destroyer Swordsman], but Mashiro Kaiba is certainly not simply committing suicide.

"Upon declaring an attack, the effect of 'Blue-Eyes Chaos Dragon' activates!"

[This effect can only be activated when this card, Ritual Summoned using "Blue-Eyes White Dragon," declares an attack. Change the battle position of all monsters your opponent controls. This effect reduces the ATK and DEF of monsters whose battle position has been changed to 0. If this card attacks a Defense Position monster this turn, inflict battle damage equal to the difference between its ATK and DEF.]

"Take this, Yuki! [Chaotic Pressure]!"

With a roar, the "Blue-Eyes Chaos Dragon" unleashed a dragon's might imbued with chaotic power, sweeping across the entire battlefield and disrupting the gravity and other forces of space. As a result, monsters such as the "Holy Spirit" had their appearance altered.

Some became symbols of attack, while others became symbols of defense. Regardless of whether they were attacking or defending, the right to resist was taken away.

The "Destruction Swordsman," who was born to slay dragons, is no exception.

"Swordsman of Destruction, DEF: 2300→0"

"The turn 'Blue-Eyes Chaos Dragon' uses this effect, when attacking a Defense Position monster, it inflicts piercing damage exceeding the target value. Yuki, you only have 1000 Life Points left, so prepare to die!"

"Not always!"

As the Blue-Eyes Chaos Dragon was about to unleash its chaotic dragon breath, Yu Xi calmly said, "At this moment, I will activate the effect of 'Holy Spirit - Holy Burst Gale Bullet'!"

Chapter 269 The Final Fusion of Echoes of Destiny! (5k-word chapter)

[During your opponent's Battle Phase, you can target 1 Normal Monster in either your or your opponent's Graveyard; Special Summon that monster to your field. This turn, as long as that monster is on your field, any attackable monster your opponent controls must attack that monster.]

"Dimensional Fusion" allows both sides to Special Summon as many banished monsters as possible back to the field. Due to the "Final Forbidden Curse", almost all the monsters that Yuki and Mashiro Kaiba had used before were banished, which means that there are more and more powerful monsters that can be resurrected.

So why did Yu Xi revive only a 4-star lower-level mage?

The answer is here.

"Based on its effect, I can revive the Normal Monsters in both of our Graveyards. And to revive, it's 'Blue-Eyes White Dragon' from your Graveyard, Mashiro!"

"What!?"

Under the astonished gaze of Mashiro Kaiba, the "Holy Spirit" clasped her hands together and prayed softly.

Amidst the prayers, a giant silver dragon, almost identical in appearance to the Blue-Eyes Jet Dragon, roared and howled from behind the Holy Elf.

"They actually...they actually took my 'Blue Eye' away!?"

"You also stole the God Card before, Mashiro. Now it's just a tie."

Yuki said to the incredulous bunny-eared loli, "Because of the effect of 'Sacred Spirit,' even if I add a new monster to my field, you can't attack and retract it. 'Blue-Eyes White Dragon,' crush your kind! [Explosive Gale Bullet of Destruction]!!"

"Roar!"

"Blue-Eyes White Dragon" roared, and pure white light burst from its mouth, colliding with the dragon breath of "Blue-Eyes Chaos Dragon". After a moment of stalemate, it completely crushed the other monster. The effect of "Blue-Eyes Chaos Dragon" can only affect the monsters at the time of the attack declaration. As a monster that is revived later, "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" is of course unaffected.

This also determined the outcome of this battle.

— Destroyed by "Blue-Eyes Chaos Dragon".

【Seahorse True White LP: 3200→1200】

"Hmm! Don't get cocky, Yuki! I still have a monster on my field!"

Despite suffering a significant loss of health from the reflected damage, Kaiba Mashiro defiantly shouted, "Blue-Eyes Jet Dragon, keep attacking Blue-Eyes White Dragon!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the mechanical Blue-Eyes swooped down towards the "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" that had betrayed the enemy camp.

As a monster that returned after the defeat of the "Sky Dragon," the "Blue-Eyes Jet Dragon" has attack power comparable to the "Blue-Eyes White Dragon," seemingly poised for mutual destruction. However, this is not the case.

Although I've never used it, "Blue-Eyes Jet Dragon" can bounce 1 card from your opponent's field back to their hand at the start of damage calculation in battle.

By simply deflecting the "Eternal Soul," we can recreate the events of when Yuki destroyed the "True Light."

At that time, all of Yuki's monsters on the field will be destroyed, leaving none behind.

You Xi was well aware of this.

He immediately declared, "I'll activate the effect of 'Eternal Soul' to revive 'Dark Magician' from the Graveyard, followed by the Trap Card: 'Fusion Copy'!"

"Merge and replicate?"

Seeing Yuki's exposed backcourt trap, Kaiba Mashiro exclaimed in surprise, "The same trap as mine?"

"Use this card's effect to copy any 'Fusion' cards in your Graveyard, and use their effects to fuse 'Dark Magician' and 'Swordsman of Destruction'! Fusion Summon, here comes 'Super Magical Knight - Dark Magician Rider'!"

"Super Magic Knight - Black Magician Rider, Level 8/Dark/Mage/Fusion" "ATK: 2800/DEF: 2300"

The master craftsman and the dragon-slaying swordsman, who had just been summoned back by the stone tablet, plunged into the fused spiral light effect, and entered the arena as the magic knights rode in on steeds.

"The ATK of 'Dark Magician Rider' increases by 100 for each Spell/Trap Card in both players' Graveyards. Furthermore, when a Spell/Trap/Monster effect targeting a card on the field is activated, you can discard 1 card from your hand to negate that activation and destroy it."

Yu Xi said, "That way, if your 'Blue-Eyes Jet Dragon' tries to use its effect, it will be countered and destroyed by the 'Dark Magician Rider'."

"Hmph, you're too naive, Yuki! I never intended to activate the effect in the first place!"

Mashiro Kaiba draws a card from her hand, and a blonde angel flies out of it.

"During the damage calculation phase, activate the effect of 'Ernest' from your hand! Send it from your hand to the Graveyard, and increase the ATK of 'Blue-Eyes Jet Dragon' by the same amount as the ATK of 'Blue-Eyes White Dragon'!"

"Blue-Eyes Jet Dragon, ATK: 3000 → 6000"

Blessed and protected by the power of the angels, the Blue-Eyes Jet Dragon absorbed all the white light emitted by the Blue-Eyes White Dragon, and its aura increased significantly.

The burst of flames from its tail accelerated its charge even further.

As it approached, the Blue-Eyes White Dragon also flapped its wings and flew into the sky, attempting to increase the distance. However, the hatches on both sides of the Blue-Eyes Jet Dragon opened, and dozens of missiles flew out, tracking and hitting their own kind.

"boom!"

—The Blue-Eyes White Dragon destroys.

The explosion lit up the sky and, carrying a powerful shockwave, hurtled towards Youxi.

You Xi promptly revealed his trump card for survival.

"The effect of 'Kuriboh', discarded from your hand, is activated, reducing the damage taken in this battle to 0!"

"Krikrik!"

A resolute cry rang out, and the brown furball that emerged from the card rapidly grew larger, using its fluffy body to firmly protect Youxi from any harm.

"Blocked again? Oh well, I knew you had this kind of card, Yuki. So what!"

Yuki blocked his second attack, but Kaiba Mashiro was not discouraged.

She's only just now revealing her true trump card.

"Main Phase 2: Summon 'Half-Dragon Maid - Dormitory Dragon Girl' in Attack Position and activate its effect to add 'Half-Dragon Maid's Affection' from your Deck to your hand. Then activate the effect of 'Half-Dragon Maid's Changing Clothes' in your Graveyard to bounce 'Dormitory Dragon Girl' back to your hand. This card returns to my hand."

"Ready to summon 'Radiant Dragon Girl' one more time?"

Yuki guessed and reminded him, "But I can defeat your monster with just 'Super Magical Rider,' I don't need to use card effects."
