Yu-Gi-Oh!: This is the real duel!

Just as the golden greatsword was about to strike, Yuzuru was forced to activate his last face-down card: "Spell Card - Double Spell! Resurrect the dead from your hand and activate the Spell Card - Contraction from your Graveyard!"

"Reduces the attack power of the vengeful stealth warrior by half!"

Since the card he just played made Yuzuru unhappy, he's going to use it to retaliate against Seto Kaiba!

"Magic Hand" could not escape the fate of being destroyed, but due to the reduction in attack power, "The Vengeful Stealth Warrior" ultimately failed to achieve an amazing "one-shot kill".

"boom--------"

"Beep beep beep beep—"

Cruise control, LP: 1200→800

Both sides' health points were brought back to the same starting point in just one round.

As the smoke cleared, Seto Kaiba coldly stared at Yusuke: "Are you so weak that you can't duel without using other people's cards?"

"First they stole my Bloodthirsty Beastman, then they copied my magic cards..."

"Since your deck is so weak, then hurry up and summon your only lifeline—Armed Dragon!"

"But no matter how far your laughable monster can evolve, my Blue-Eyes White Dragon will crush it mercilessly!"

"Set a card face down! End of turn!"

Blue-Eyes White Dragon...

A powerful monster with an attack power of up to 3000.

Only when Armored Dragon evolves to Lv10 can it have the power to fight it.

But can Armored Dragon really evolve to Lv10 in a duel?

Yu Che clearly remembers that "Armed Dragon Lv10" can only be Special Summoned by Tributing "Armed Dragon Lv7" on your field. Without a physical card, it is simply impossible to summon it.

We cannot place all our hopes on things that may not happen.

Moreover, the "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" has not yet made its appearance.

Looking at the incredibly ferocious "Avenging Stealth Warrior" under Seto Kaiba's command, Yu Che waved his hand and played one of his few remaining cards:

"My turn, draw a card!"

"Activate the Spell Card - Heavenly Treasure Card!"

Chapter 19 The King of the End - Demis

"A magic card! A treasure fallen from the sky!"

This was a card replenishment artifact during the DM era, capable of instantly increasing the number of cards in the hands of both duelists to six.

As golden coins rained down from the sky, Seto Kaiba and Yuzuriha's nearly depleted hand of cards were replenished.

While drawing cards, Yuzuru finally noticed King and Jonouchi Katsuya standing not far from the stage.

This was the first time he had seen them in this world.

Compared to his two-dimensional image, the three-dimensional King's hairstyle appears much more exaggerated.

Jonouchi was a bit better; his hair wasn't as yellow as it looked in the anime, but rather a slightly brownish color.

Logically speaking, Hiro Honda and Kyoko Masaki should have come along too. Since they're not here, they're probably taking Sugoroku Muto to the hospital.

You Che glanced at the audience before refocusing his attention on the duel.

Looking at his newly replenished hand, his mind raced. After assessing the current situation, he decided to play the rare Ritual Spell card he had drawn that afternoon:

"Activate the Spell Card again—Angel's Blessing!"

"Draw three cards from your deck, then discard two of them."

"I choose to discard the tyrant of the Dark Realm and the wisdom of demons!"

"Activate the Spell Card - Silent Dead, this card can be Special Summoned from the Graveyard in Defense Position as a Normal Monster!"

"Come back! Overlord of the Dark Realm!"

"Rumble rumble rumble ——————"

The earth shattered, and the Demon King, shrouded in darkness, burst forth from the ground, standing guard on the battlefield in a defensive posture!

The Overlord of the Dark Realm

【Five stars】

[Dark Attribute/Demon Race]

[Attack/Defense: 2000/1530]

Seto Kaiba sneered, "Stop wasting your energy! Without Armored Dragon, any of your actions are futile!"

"No, this card isn't for battle, but for becoming a tribute to summon an even stronger monster!" Yu Che continued to swipe the card, "Attack Position Summon! Demon Lord!"

"Gudong Gudong..."

The sound of organs writhing faintly came from the card. Amidst the mesmerizing black mist, an old demon with his brain exposed slowly flew out. Judging from the gray wings on his back, he might have some kind of connection with the angel race.

【Demon Lord】

【Samsung】

[Dark Attribute/Demon Race]

[Attack/Defense: 1000/700]

"Snapped!!!!"

When two monsters appeared on the field at the same time, Yu Che played the Ritual Spell Card heavily: "Ritual Spell Card! Doomsday! Use the Demon Lord and the Overlord of the Dark Realm on my field as materials!"

"Ritual Summoning!"

"Demis, the King of the End!!"

The other three people present were startled the moment the card fell.

A ritual magic card called "Doomsday"?!

Do we need a total of eight-star monsters as sacrifices?

What kind of terrifying monster requires such summoning conditions?!

Even Yuzuru himself wasn't entirely clear about the abilities and stats of Demis, the King of the End, but as an epoch-making eight-star ritual monster, even if its effects were mediocre, its attack power wouldn't be too low.

A dazzling purple light engulfed both monsters on the field at the same time!

Amidst the billowing purple aura, a towering demon king, draped in a massive black cloak and wielding a double-headed axe, gradually appeared, his entire body clad in black armor! Endless purple aura swirled around him, relentlessly destroying everything in its vicinity!

【Demis, the King of the End】

[Eight Stars]

[Dark Attribute/Demon Race]

[Attack/Defense: 2400/2000]

Despite its terrifying appearance, its combat power doesn't seem to be very high.

Youche shifted his gaze to its special ability, but after reading that short line of text, Youche's expression became somewhat awkward.

Unexpectedly, the ability of the King of the End, Demis, is: pay 2000 LP to destroy all other cards on the field.

Even in the Duel City era, this ability would be absolutely devastating, but in the Duel Kingdom era, where the total LP was only 2000, you had to pave the way with other cards before you could activate this ability.

Right now, I only have 800 LP, so it's definitely impossible to activate this card's effect. I can only use it as a vanilla card for now.

It's okay, I'll summon it and take a look someday anyway...

Yu Che thought this through, then decisively entered the battle phase, launching an attack on Seto Kaiba's monster: "King of the End, Demis! Attack the vengeful stealth warrior!"

Seto Kaiba scoffed, "Want to take us both down with you? I don't mind! After all, you've already paid a huge price to summon this monster!"

However, Yu Che responded, "No! The King of the End, Demis, will never perish together with the vengeful stealthy warrior! Because at the moment of attack, I will activate the Spell Card—Grave Digger Ghoul!"

"This card can banish the Bloodthirsty Orc from your graveyard from the Duel, thus reducing the ATK of the Vengeful Stealth Warrior by 400!"

In the current era, it is very difficult for banished cards to return, and Yuzuriha added "Grave Digger" to the deck specifically to counter cards like "Monster Resurrection".

"Hehehe~"

The treacherous ghouls sneak into the cemetery and devour the souls of the fallen Seto Kaiba!

As his companion's resentment dissipated, the "vengeful stealth warrior" also lost his extra power, and his attack power returned to 2000.

"Whoosh!!!!"

At the same time, Demis, the King of the End, strode forward and chopped down with his giant axe!

A deafening explosion rang out, and Seto Kaiba's monster instantly turned into fragments!

"Beep beep beep beep————"

Seto Kaiba, LP: 800→400

"Tsk!" The simulated impact didn't affect Seto Kaiba much; instead, it fueled his fighting spirit. "So it's this disgusting card?"

"However, you've just replenished your hand with the treasure card that fell from the sky, and you'll soon be running out of cards again."

"And after paying a heavy price, all you've managed to summon is a seemingly powerful but actually worthless piece of trash!"

"You Che, if you want to fight to the death, then quickly summon your Armed Dragon! These trash are not worth my personal destruction!"

Indeed, You Che's attack just now consumed a lot of resources.

However, his actions were not reckless, as exhausting his hand of cards was also part of the strategy.

After placing two cards face down, Youche, whose hand was completely empty, ended his turn.

Just as Seto Kaiba was about to launch a counterattack, Yusuke suddenly revealed the face-down card he had just set up: "Kaiba! The instant you draw your card, I activate the Trap Card - Spell Burst!"

"This card can only be activated when you have zero cards in your hand, inflicting Life Points damage to your opponent equal to 200 times the number of Spell Cards in your Graveyard!!"

Chapter 20 The Strongest and Most Magnificent Dragon! Blue-Eyes White Dragon!

"What?!"
