How come the Ace of Cups isn't considered the Holy Grail?

Could it be in Uruk?

Gorgons said.

As for the possibility that Jingu was captured or eliminated... she hadn't even considered it.

Even if Kingu is weak, he is still Tiamat's child, a being belonging to a god. How could he possibly be captured by these insignificant humans?

Moreover, Jin Gu is by no means weak!

Having grown somewhat bored with the soldiers before him, Gorgon lowered his eyes, preparing to forcefully break through the monster lines and head directly to Uruk City via the North Wall.

The snake heads beside them opened their mouths again, and magic was condensed into a purple sphere within their mouths.

The terrifying rays shot out again. Seeing this, Leonidas couldn't wait for the north gate to open. He climbed up the wall and prepared to use his Noble Phantasm to block Gorgon's attack after falling from the wall.

A faint sound came from high above.

"Trap Card activated! [Starlight Avenue]!"

The Milky Way... no, it was a thick pillar of light, filled with shimmering starlight, that descended from the sky and enveloped Gorgon. The snake heads formed from her hair vanished into nothingness within the pillar of light, like vampires basking in the sun.

A pure white dragon emerged from the dazzling light and announced its arrival with a clear dragon roar.

"What's this?!"

Gorgon, filled with shock and anger, quickly retreated from the pillar of light that had done her no harm. The snake heads around her had long since turned into smoke, leaving scorched marks on her hair, just like those on the north wall of the city.

The crimson D-Wheel descended from the sky, swung its tail, and drifted sideways before coming to a stop in front of the north wall. The pure white Stardust Dragon flapped its wings and slowly landed behind the D-Wheel, fearlessly facing the Gorgon, which was even larger than itself.

"【Starlight Road】Can only be activated when the effect of a Spell, Trap, or Monster that would destroy two or more cards on your field is activated. Negate that effect and destroy it."

Yuto removed his helmet and calmly explained the effect of the trap card he had just activated to the war-torn Gorgon.

"After that, you can Special Summon 1 Stardust Dragon from your Extra Deck."

Gorgon was enormous, and his voice was naturally very loud. They heard him calling himself Tiamat while they were still in the air.

She probably never imagined that the other two pillar goddesses in the Three Goddess Alliance had been turned by them and had told them all about Gorgon. Now, Gorgon was the only one left in the alliance.

The moment Yudo took off his helmet and saw his face, Gorgon immediately recognized him as the figure from the nightmare he had just had.

"It's you!!!"

Gorgon, with a fierce yet cowardly expression, once again transformed her hair into several snake heads and let out a silent roar at the wandering creature in front of her, which was just as insignificant as herself.

Judging from this... does Gorgon actually retain memories of him as well?

You Du rubbed his chin.

He thought only Anna would retain this part of the memory, but oh well, it wouldn't affect anything anyway. Besides... although he didn't know why, Gorgon seemed quite afraid of him, a mere passerby duelist.

That's strange. He shouldn't have fought anyone in front of Medusa during the Fifth World War... Gorgon couldn't possibly be afraid of the New Universe, could he?

“Gorgon, you can’t even see your own form now, you’re just an ordinary monster…”

As Youdu pondered, Anna, who had been sitting in front of the D-wheel, got off and stood in front of Gorgon. She slowly removed her hood, revealing her delicate face with a headband on her forehead.

Gorgon: "!!!"

The moment Anna removed her hood and revealed her face, Gorgon felt a chill run down his spine as if he had seen something extremely terrifying.

"What's wrong with you...? What is this chilling aura?!"

Fear, disgust...

Just as someone who is afraid of dogs encounters a large dog, or someone who is afraid of ghosts encounters a supernatural event, Gorgon felt as if he had encountered the most terrifying and ugliest thing he had ever seen, and he couldn't help but twist his body wildly.

"Jingu! Ah! Jingu! Chase this hideous monster away! Where are you?! Jingu—"

Seeing her own disheveled state, Anna couldn't help but show a look of disappointment, even though she already knew that this was the most likely outcome.

"As expected... you can't see me..."

If you were still willing to look at me, there might still be a sliver of a chance to salvage the situation...

Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Radiance of Salvation

"As expected... you can't see me..."

Hearing Anna say those words in a somewhat forlorn and melancholic tone, You Du couldn't help but shiver.

Hmm... Doesn't that sound a little creepy?

He didn't wander onto the set of some supernatural horror movie, did he?

Ah, but heroic spirits are people who have already died, so in a sense they can also be considered part of the supernatural genre, right?

Unrelated thoughts flashed through his mind, and Yuuto shook his head, turning his gaze back to Anna, who had her back to him.

"No chance left?"

"Hmm... Merlin, unseal my divinity."

Anna nodded, regaining her spirits and no longer succumbing to despair. She picked up her scythe and chain, ready for battle.

Merlin, who had successfully escaped from his chains after Anna removed them, stretched his body, which was stiff from being bound for so long. He paused for a moment upon hearing this and looked at Anna.

"...I understand, is that alright?"

"Yes, I give my permission."

Since Anna had already made up her mind, Merlin said nothing more and raised his hand to remove the seal that suppressed her divinity.

One by one, the circular bands bearing symbols and words were removed, until the last band was removed, and the headband Anna was wearing also disappeared.

She brought her index and middle fingers, which were covered by black gloves, together and ran them across her tightly closed eyes.

"Yuto, I'm counting on you from now on! Her demonic eyes will be neutralized by my demonic eyes!"

"Since this is what you want..."

Seeing that Anna had made her conclusion about Gorgon, Yudu didn't waste any words and directly ordered the Stardust Dragon to launch the first attack.

The storm gathered into breath, striking the serpent heads around Gorgon at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye, which were gathering magic and poised to strike, thus providing cover for Anna as she charged toward Gorgon.

"Oh dear, is the fight already starting? How impatient... Well then, let our dear Merlin lend you a hand again!"

He took out his wand and plunged it into the ground, creating a flower-shaped magic circle.

He waved his staff, and a similar magic circle appeared beneath Yuuto and Anna's feet. The circle then contracted, turning into pink light that adhered to the scythe and... the duel disk.

Youdu: ?

"No way, Merlin, what's the point of giving me this power-up?! Do you expect me to run over there and smash Gorgon's head with my Duel Disk?!"

If you're going to give a buff, you should give it to his [Stardust Dragon]!

He's a summoner who doesn't go up and fight in melee combat, so giving him buffs would be a complete waste, wouldn't it?

"Haha, sorry, I accidentally added the wrong thing~"

Merlin smiled awkwardly at Yudu.

There was no way around it; after all, it was his first time casting a buff spell on a summoner like Yuuto, and he instinctively applied it to Yuuto's main body...

"Damn it, you bastard—"

Gorgon, whose body was cleaned of all the snake heads by the Stardust Dragon, gritted his teeth and, seeing Anna charging towards him, angrily activated his Petrifying Eye.

"Go to hell!"

Dark magic gathered on the row of small magic circles in front of her. Anna stopped at the same time and also gathered her magic in front of her to activate her magic eye.

"Don't think about it!"

Two beams of black and red magic shot out from before Gorgon and Anna, colliding with the Stardust Dragon's wind breath and causing a violent explosion.

Bang-!

The blast wave swept across the land, and even the soldiers on the north wall had to cover their faces with their hands to protect themselves from the strong wind, lest they be blown off the wall.

Meanwhile, Gorgon's snake heads had already recovered while he was exchanging energy with Anna and the Stardust Dragon. Taking advantage of the dust and smoke from the blast, the dozen or so snake heads gathered magic power in their mouths.

"Melt me!"

The scattered beams of magic converged from their original directions into a single point and shot towards Anna.

“Miss Anna! That is our homeland, which can heal all wounds and all resentment…”

As the beam of light approached, Mash, as a shield bearer, immediately raised her shield in front of Anna, quickly chanting the release incantation for her Noble Phantasm.

She could easily block one beam of light of that magnitude, but with so many, she would have to unleash her Noble Phantasm!

"Reveal! The distant and ideal city (Lord Camelot)!"

The city of chalk reappeared, and the phantom of the round table blocked Gorgon's magical beam.

Looking into Anna's determined eyes behind the shield, Gorgon let out an unbearable scream.

"No! Don't look at me like that!"

While Mash was helping Anna, Chaldea was also busy analyzing Gorgon.

"The analysis results are in! Gorgon's spirit origin is undoubtedly god-level, and his class classification is... Avenger!"

Dr. Roman frowned as he looked at the data displayed on the screen and relayed the result to Fujimaru Ritsuka.

"Avenger... an additional eighth class that seeks revenge out of resentment?"

"Hmm...relying on the [Stardust Dragon] feels a bit too slow. Let's add some more fuel..."

On the battlefield, seeing that Anna and the others were being suppressed, Yuwatari picked out two more cards and placed them on the Duel Disk.

"I summon the Level 1 Stardust Dragon and the Level 1 Tuner monster Savior Dragon! And I will tune them to the Level 8 Stardust Dragon on the field!"

Two small dragons, one red and one white, with different appearances, flew out from either side of You Du's body and circled and ascended into the air around the [Stardust Dragon] on the field.

Nine stars formed a line that passed through a green ring, and together with the chanting of Youdu, they converged into a white pillar of light.

"The light of the stars gathers here, and a new miracle is illuminated at this moment! Become a path of shining light! Synchro Summon!"

"Descend from the light! [Savior Star Dragon]!"

Its crystal-like body slowly emerged in the light, as if it had appeared out of nowhere. Its fragile body, constructed from some unknown material, contained immense magical power, and even emitted a hazy glow on its surface.

That was a radiance as dazzling as the Star Sword, a power that could only be unleashed to its fullest extent when saving the world!

Even the crazed Gorgon couldn't help but shift his gaze from Anna to the [Savior Star Dragon] hovering in the sky.

"hold head high--!"

The sound that resounded across the battlefield was not a dragon's roar, but a sigh from the life on the planet beneath their feet.

In Uruk, Gilgamesh is handling official business, Kingu is under guard, and Ishtar and Quetzal Koyat are in charge of guarding him...

Everyone, including Ereshkigal, who was in the underworld, heard the planet's joyful sounds and looked towards the north wall where the sound came from.

Within the imaginary space.

Tiamat's closed eyelids twitched slightly as if she were sensing something.

Chapter 100 Your Demon Eyes were good, but now they're mine!

Birds soar, beasts gallop, and fish leap from the sea...

At this moment, all kinds of creatures are experiencing this joy from the planet itself in their own way.

Swish-!

While Gorgon was still in a daze, Anna, who had recovered her senses before her, turned her gaze away from the [Savior Star Dragon] and slashed at the nearest snake head with her scythe.

Anna's scythe sliced ​​across the snake heads' necks. The scythe in her hand, which was already as sharp as cutting through iron, was enhanced by Merlin's magic. The snake heads were as fragile as tofu in front of her, and she felt almost no resistance when she cut them.

It was only then that Gorgon came to her senses, ignoring the [Savior Star Dragon] in the sky that made her so uneasy; her attention was now completely drawn to Anna.

The dozen or so snake heads around her instantly shot out beams of light, forcing Anna back. At the same time, she twisted her body, and her huge snake tail was used as a heavy hammer to smash down on Anna, who was nimbly dodging around below.

"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!"

Each time the enormous serpent's tail struck the ground, it created a tremor, and Gorgon, enraged, relentlessly pursued and attacked Anna below.

"Why can't you just die peacefully?!"

Gorgon once again activated his petrifying eye, causing Anna to stop using her own eye to fight back. Then, the snake heads around him opened their mouths, preparing to take this opportunity to shoot beams of light for a sneak attack.

Unexpectedly, a blur like an airplane flashed past Gorgon's eyes, and then Youdu's voice belatedly rang out.

"Trying to ambush me? Aren't you being a little disrespectful?"
