Yu-Gi-Oh!: From Casual Gamer to Soulful Player

【Flanking maneuver (usually a trap)】

[Effect: Destroy 2 monsters you control and 1 monster your opponent controls.]

It looks like an extreme card loss of three for one, but it is the card that Hyoga needs most right now.

Using this card, not only can Water Mage and Doubler avoid being absorbed and destroyed by Thousand-Eyed Nasturtium, but it can also directly destroy Thousand-Eyed Nasturtium!

Is losing money on your credit card bad? This is fantastic!

"What?!"

Pegasus hadn't expected that the card Ice River had used to evade his surveillance was actually a [Flanking Attack].

This is indeed the most suitable card to deal with the Thousand-Eyed Narrative Demon at this moment.

Furthermore, the empty field created after the opponent used this card also affected Pegasus's subsequent actions.

However, the glacier wouldn't give Pegasus much time to think.

"Go! Water Demon, Double Up, attack from both sides!"

With a shout from Hyoga, the Water Demon and Yihao Beidou simultaneously transformed into flying spirits, swiftly sweeping across the battlefield and surrounding the Thousand-Eyed Najima from the left and right.

If successful, Pegasus's strongest monster will be eliminated!

Water Mage and Double-Beat simultaneously stretched out their palms and claws towards the Thousand-Eyed Nasturtium, just like Katu, intending to crush the Thousand-Eyed Nasturtium into dust.

boom!

A powerful explosion erupted from the Thousand-Eyed Sacrifice Demon, and the feeling of being watched by a thousand eyes vanished completely.

Hyoga managed to swing his fist... That was great.

At that moment, the Water Demon Taoist and the spirit of Beidou also flew back and threw themselves into the graveyard.

But just as Hyoga was feeling so happy, the Water Demon's voice reached Hyoga's ears.

"Hyoga, watch out! That guy wasn't completely wiped out!"

Hmm? Hyoga immediately tensed up.

When the smoke from the explosion cleared, Pegasus's side was not only not empty, but had turned into two monsters.

Previously, when [Thousand-Eyed Requiem] was on the field, since there was no physical card of it, Pegasus's Duel Disk contained the cards [Dark-Eyed Illusionist], [Requiem Ritual], [Thousand-Eyed Cult God], and [Fusion].

Meanwhile, in Pegasus's back row, [Fusion] is disappearing along with another card and being sent to the graveyard.

This card is [Fusion Release].

Before being destroyed by the [Flanking Attack], Pegasus used [Fusion Release] on the Thousand-Eyed Nasturm.

Therefore, Pegasus currently has a face-up Defense Position [Thousand-Eyed Cultist] and a face-up Attack Position [Sacrifice Demon] on the field.

The disgusting stuff is back!

Glacier felt nauseous in waves.

However, the [Sacrifice Demon] that is currently attacking has not absorbed monsters as a shield, and it can be destroyed with just one attack.

But is it really that easy?

"Glacier boy, you really surprise me, you managed to struggle to this extent!"

"But that's where it ends!"

"You are dead!"

The moment Pegasus said those words, Hyoga finally collapsed, unable to hold on any longer!

His soul power has been completely exhausted!

In the Dark Game, no matter how many advantages a duelist still possesses, everything is wasted if they can no longer continue the duel.

The duel hasn't actually been going on for very long, but Hyoga consumes a huge amount of soul power with each action.

He's been able to hold on until now thanks to the help of the Water Demon Taoist and the Double-Beat.

But even they didn't have much strength left at this moment.

Beidou had already been hit by the Demon of Sacrifice and was on the verge of death. No matter how strong his will was, he couldn't stand up.

Of the trio, only the Water Demon Taoist still has some strength left.

Looking at the fallen Hyoga and Ace Combo, the Water Mage smiled calmly...

After so many years of calm, now it's finally here, so let me go crazy just this once!

"Glacier, let's merge together!"

In his dazed state, Binghe felt another force appear before him.

Barely opening one eye, Hyoga saw the Water Demon's body gradually disappearing...

"Water..." Hyoga tried to stop him, but he didn't even have the strength to finish saying a name.

At this moment, Hyoga could only watch helplessly as the Water Demon's body completely disappeared, leaving behind only a mask that contained all of his power.

"Wear it, Hyoga! Take all of me and utterly destroy that eye-shaped monster on the other side!"

As the mask slowly fell, Hyoga shed bloody tears.

Pegasus wanted to stop him, but as long as Hyoga wasn't completely dead and the dueling ritual wasn't over, even Pegasus couldn't stop him.

Even though Hyoga doesn't have any monsters on the field right now, he can't even get the Requiem Demon to attack.

Thus, Pegasus could only watch helplessly as Hyoga put on the mask and completely merged with the Water Mage.

Hyoga's thoughts were in disarray at that moment.

Because his current fusion with the Water Demon has truly, as he said, accepted everything from him.

It wasn't just the power of the spirits, but also all the knowledge the water mage had acquired in his life.

Hyoga can now use magic!

When the light of fusion faded, Hyoga stood on the field once more.

Hyoga now looks more like a water sorcerer because he's wearing a mask.

However, compared to the water sorcerer wearing a water magic robe, Hyoga was currently dressed in a tight-fitting outfit.

He doesn't look like a magician at all; he looks more like a vampire.

At the same time, a light shone from Hyoga's deck, and a monster card flew out of it on its own.

The artwork on this card depicts Hyoga's new appearance at this moment.

"Continue, Pegasus! I swear in the name of myself and my comrades, I will defeat you!"

With that, Hyoga showed Pegasus the monster card that had just appeared in his hand.

[New Water Mage, 6-star, Water]

[Mage Race/Normal, 1200/3000]

[The true form of a water-wielding mage. Capable of creating massive, indestructible ice walls to defend against attacks.]

3000 points of defense? That's enough to withstand a Blue-Eyes White Dragon's attack head-on!

Even Pegasus was very surprised when he saw this card.

Although Pegasus also created a few monsters with a defense of 3000, since Blue-Eyes White Dragon is already the pinnacle of ordinary monsters, it is really very difficult for other ordinary monsters to reach this level of defense.

For example, the [Millennium Shield] has a defense of 3000 points, but an attack of 0 points.

Furthermore, Pegasus doesn't like to fight using powerful monsters.

Rather than relying on "momentum," Pegasus prefers to use "skill" to torment and defeat his opponents.

After discovering Exodia's seal in the underworld, Pegasus, through a contract with him, was finally able to break free from the constraints of the mortal monsters and begin creating effect monsters with special abilities.

Although the "Man-Eating Insect" is nominally Pegasus's first Effect Monster, in reality, the "Sealed Exodia" was Pegasus's first Effect Monster.

Pegasus can create Effect Monsters faster and faster by absorbing the power of the spirits absorbed by this sealed demon god.

Before coming here, Pegasus had heard that the young president of the Kaiba Group was going to great lengths to collect all four Blue-Eyes White Dragons.

But what are the Blue-Eyes White Dragon with an attack power of 3000 points, or the New Water Mage with a defense power of 3000 points, compared to his powerful Fantasy Demon race?

They're all just food!
