I am Death, I am the destroyer of the world.
Although this passage was primarily used to describe the effects of a nuclear explosion, the current "destroyer of the world" absolutely deserves the title of that power.
A grand concept, inexpressible in words, descended upon the world after that terrifying power erupted, and everyone looked up at the sky, which seemed to flow like a painting.
This is an incredibly absurd phenomenon, like a prank by the gods, who removed the original sky and replaced it with an electronic screen to display the images they wanted.
The boundless starry sky and ocean unfolded slowly in the sky like a painting, and the incredibly realistic scene made people wonder if they were still on the battlefield of the war between gods and demons.
Under the control of some unknown force, the two stars collided, and the brilliant flame that could have annihilated countless lives instantly obscured the entire screen, and a new video began to play in a nonsensical way.
Synchro Cards representing a new era are constantly being released, and plans to increase the intensity of duels are constantly being introduced in order to provide energy for perpetual motion machines. Duelists who were originally passionate have lost their smiles one after another under the oppressive duels, and duels are filled with deathly and mechanical scenes.
Thus, the perpetual motion machine hailed as humanity's hope for the new era stopped operating at a certain point, and then began to operate in reverse, pushing humanity into the abyss of destruction.
Without a doubt, this is exactly the desperate and shattered future that ZONE and his friends experienced.
That is the future, the possibility of an infinite future.
In a daze, they all realized what had happened.
The scene returned to the starry sky, and the next moment, like the climax of a grand chorus, the stars, as numerous as the sands of the Ganges, began to collide with each other, and the most beautiful and dazzling fireworks in the starry sky bloomed.
The dazzling and bustling scenes played one after another, and within a few seconds, several future videos were played. The nerves and brains of ordinary people simply could not process such a fast and massive amount of information. One after another, they fell into self-protection mode, closed their eyes, kicked their legs, and fainted.
Countless futures were like cheaply wholesaled goods in a supermarket, practically given away for free. But then, a blast of light broke through the stars, and the magnificent light caused the video to go blank.
Let the false future become the real path...
That was the final plea of someone who gave up everything to save the world...
"I have received your last wish—"
Chang Yan spoke in a deep voice, then raised his hand above his head as if calling out to something. The bright white screen in the sky slowly dimmed, revealing the chosen future.
It was a duel, a duel that transcended time in Dono City during the DM era.
That supreme network overlapped everything, and the original sin spider, dwelling above the planet, enveloped the planet beneath it.
Although it failed and the monster was even finished off by the opposing minotaur, it was indeed a new summoning method called "Xyz".
(The duel that begins in Chapter 463, the battle across time and space, was a rare moment where I was able to unleash my full potential. The verbal sparring part, too, surprised me when I looked back after I finished writing it.)
"Did you see that radiant light in my hand—"
His arm met the screen of the sky, and from Darkness's perspective, it looked as if his hand was holding up the entire sky.
"This glory—is called the future!!!"
Ignoring the future Changyan whose consciousness was about to be swallowed up, Changyan roared and drew a card from his deck, the golden light drawing a dazzling arc in front of him.
A gacha game based on fate!
As the saying goes, after so many years, I've finally learned this trick!
[Thoughts on the Future], [Advanced Magic - Sword of the Seven Emperors], [Puzzle Circle], and a series of other cards that could turn the tide of battle changed shape continuously in that radiance, but because of a certain man's final words, the card's appearance slowly fixed itself.
"Normal Summon [Tio's Trap], Special Summon [Atra's Trap] from the Graveyard."
Amidst a cacophony of wild laughter and sweet voices, the insect girls, who had been out of the public eye for ages, finally appeared!
(It will appear several times in the Z4 storyline, after all, it's the 5DS now, we can't keep playing the retribution game.)
"Watch, Hope, I will once again display that miraculous brilliance—Spell Card [Level Master] activated!"
That was none other than the card that had appeared before, the card that would determine the key to the future.
"Discard the [True Dragon of Sin] from your hand, transform 2 monsters on my field into Level 12 monsters, then twirl those two cards onto the network!!!"
The false future will become the real path, and the dark savior will save the future on this path!
"Hopefully, the true path will be found among those stars, and in the future, the name of God-King will resound throughout heaven and earth in the echoes of light!"
No longer the Seven Sins Spider that embodies humanity's original sin, but a brand new monster that brings endless radiance.
"Steel Savior—"
A dormant, unknown card bursts forth with brilliance in the distant future, and the awakened Thunder God shatters all the shackles of time and space!
Amidst the savior's cry, the steel savior descended from the sky with endless lightning!
"【Azeus, the Thunder God】!"
Card Race: Machine
Stars/Rank: 12
ATK:3000
DEF: 3000
The steel god-king hovered in the air, and the scattered stardust, reflected in the sky, transformed into a new galaxy, becoming the radiance belonging to the savior.
"You can activate this effect by detaching 2 Xyz Material from this card."
The newly introduced Insect Girl was sent to the graveyard just like that, how inhumane!
"Send all cards on the field except this card to the Graveyard!" (This effect can be activated during your opponent's turn.)
"Galactic Explosion!!!"
The Milky Way collapsed, and countless stars fell from the sky.
Absolute power, accompanied by absolute radiance, shattered the false sky.
Lightning and steel will become the path to a new future, and humanity's original sin will be permanently etched upon it.
5DS Endgame: Let's talk about this book. Here's a free discussion chapter.
Originally, I wanted to have a duel with Yusei Fudo, who was possessed by the OCG. Needless to say, the original plan was to have Ryuten + Yohten + Stardust Zero + Stardust Dragon. But I thought about it and realized that just telling the story would take at least a chapter, even without posting any data. After all, who doesn't know that Ryuten is a useless character who tells stories?
It's supposed to be an endgame duel, so I feel like this isn't a good way to do it, especially since the author himself has been quite busy lately. With the Lunar New Year approaching, there are a lot of inspections at work; a few days ago, the security department did a surprise inspection without warning, which was terrifying.
Overall, I feel that I wrote the 5DS chapter rather poorly. Rather, I would say that my book was flawed from the very beginning. As many readers in the book review section have complained, the other members of the card-playing club performed really poorly.
This was indeed my fault. Let me explain: when I started writing this book, I was also writing another book. At the time, I just wanted to share my experiences of playing cards with some classmates at school. But as I wrote, I found that this book seemed to be doing much better than my first book on embarrassing history, so I just went ahead and wrote it.
Although they were initially set up as supporting characters, it seems like it's an ensemble piece, but let me clarify, it's not.
There are many weak parts here. I guess I'm not very talented at writing. I'm a bit of a silly, pretentious intellectual and a bit of a chuunibyou, which makes the plot a bit stream-of-consciousness. Especially before the 5DS arc, I said I wanted to write a grand war, but I found out that I'm really useless and can't write it well at all.
Only the Time-Space Duel was something I wrote beyond my usual skill level, and the beginning of the 5DS was a mess. At that time, I was having a relapse, wanting to experience amnesia and then slowly regain my memories with the appearance of the Dragon Signer and Dark Signer Taichi. Along the way, the remnants of Gensokyo would join as villains, and as his memories returned, he would gradually transform from a kind-hearted satellite district resident into the Lord of the Mortal Realm of Gensokyo, secretly plotting against others while outwardly remaining a passionate and kind young man. The climax would come during the final battle, when Changyan completely regained his memories, and Chen Fei killed "Changyan." As for what happens next, you all know.
At the time, I thought the highlight of the 5DS was the familiar process of gradually recovering memories, and the betrayal after the memories were fully restored—a very cliché and melodramatic plot.
Then I saw that many readers were disgusted by this kind of old-fashioned and melodramatic plot. That's when I realized that my thinking was a bit outdated. After a serious discussion with the guys in the author group, I realized that I was courting disaster. Plus, I was also working a full-time job at that time and wasn't used to it. In short, I ruined the 5DS arc.
There were a lot of things going on in the past few months, and I managed to piece things together until now. The subscription service was also crashing, but at least the 5DS has finally come to an end.
Enough with the small talk, let's get to the next steps —
Yusei's duel was only half a waste of a second-generation character; if you really want to see it, I can write about it in the future.
Z4's storyline doesn't involve too much of the original work; it mainly consists of daily life, academy activities, and competitions. It also adheres to the established rules, including the presence of Adjustment Monsters, but the existence of Synchro Monsters is still determined by you.
I'll be taking a few days off, about three days, since I have consecutive night shifts coming up.
I'm almost done with the word count, so I'll stop here.
In short, thank you for your support, see you in Z4.
I'm too tired, so I won't do any casual chat today.
I thought I was going to have a comfortable night shift today, but then they suddenly threw me into another night shift during dinner. I just got home after my shift ended. Ugh.
Life is tough, the cat sighs.jpg
I was originally planning to continue with this random chat today, but I think I'll skip it now. Goodnight.
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Tomorrow is my last day off; today I'll continue with some random thoughts.
Although this is supposed to be a casual chat, I've already said everything that needed to be said. In short, I really appreciate all the support from my readers! (*^▽^*)
I won't be posting any chapters tomorrow. Although this seems to break my good habit of updating daily, it's not appropriate to keep posting these kinds of uninformative chapters.
In short, there are Tuner monsters in the Z4 section, but no Synchro Summoning; Ritual Fusion will proceed as usual. Although it's supposed to be a daily story, I'm really bad at writing daily stories. I might try writing something lewd in private, but I definitely won't be able to post it.
Therefore, to prevent the plot from becoming monotonous, I've decided to add a large number of original supporting characters to Z4, including but not limited to—time travelers, reincarnated individuals, game players, the Zodiac, and the Dragonflight. These original characters will be the basis for the game, but card games will still determine everything. (However, after looking at some posts, it seems this is still open to discussion; everything is up to your wishes.)
I'll try to get some custom extras from the readers, and I'll pick a few from the group. But it's uncertain which ones I'll actually use.
That's all for now. This author is going to sleep, ヾ( ̄▽ ̄)Bye~Bye~
I'll be resuming updates tomorrow, but my mind keeps getting all sorts of crazy ideas.
After reading a post, I realized that some readers might not be able to handle all this information at once. Just like that reader said, if I mess around like this, some people will definitely drop the story. So, I won't include transmigrators, gamers, or anything like that.
As I mentioned before, my brain isn't working properly, and sometimes I have strange ideas, so if you see anything that seems off, please speak up.
I chatted with some friends in the group for a while, and we came up with a lot of weird ideas—some people would replace the conman and wake up to find a Hope with 20 attack power ready to attack them, or they would become a hidden boss sealed by the Balian and the Astral Realm, or they would be the most normal kind, like me, playing professional matches and getting involved in the storyline as a teacher.
The main issue is that I feel it's difficult to get involved in the Z4 storyline. Sometimes I even think about what happens after the Z4 anime ends, but I'm also worried that the plot might be too thin...
It's really annoying. Please give me your opinions as soon as possible. Updates will resume tomorrow.
There's really no reason to get involved in the later parts of Z4's storyline. The Astral Sphere and the Varia fighting to the death has nothing to do with me, so the Z4 storyline is really frustrating.
Chapter 678 Prophecy and the Lost Substitute
The exciting plot developments that follow Z4 are all due to each character having their own reasons and obsessions, but precisely because of this, no one can intervene; there's no reason for it.
Yuma did it because of his father and Hoshiko, Hoshiko and the shark did it because of their own species, Kaito did it for his younger brother, Kotori did it for Yuma... they all did it for their own beliefs and convictions.
I'm not going to argue about those underhanded tactics anymore; I know my own limitations.

[Mission Name: A Brand New Future, A Brand New World]
[Oh my god, what the hell are you guys doing?! This whole thing is so incredibly messed up, this system is seriously terrified! ヽ(*)>Д]
After the usual antics, the system slowly started talking about serious things.
[Other novels usually involve the protagonist reaching a bottleneck or being forced to change locations, but yours is different. It involves powerful beings battling each other, time travel, and even "self-destruction" to choose the future.]
Although everything was predetermined, and the wheels of fate had already decided everything, everything you showed surprised and delighted me, hehe (*^▽^*)
