Chapter 1353 The Phantom Butterfly Assassin
Countless wispy blue particles of light emerged from the void, swirling and converging like shattered starlight. These stardust fragments, intertwining, gradually outlined a slender female silhouette. The Phantom Butterfly Assassin's toes solidified first, lightly touching the ground with each step on the light dust. Her entire body was a translucent cobalt blue, with a galaxy-like shimmer flowing beneath her skin. The moment she fully appeared, the entire arena was tinged with ripples like those of the deep sea.

【Phantom Butterfly Assassin - Flash Butterfly, Attack Power 1200】

Phantom Butterfly Assassin is a new series for GX Dimension and is Druva's signature deck.

"Set one card face down, and the turn ends."

Drew finished his operation and cautiously observed You Xuan.

Based on the information she has gathered so far, she knows that the person opposite her is probably the king of this dimension.

The title of "King of Duels" did not exist in the dimension she came from. No duelist could bear such a weighty title, which is why she was slightly surprised when she first learned that there was such a king in this dimension who could make an entire world bow down.

"Interesting," Drew thought to himself. "Then let me see what kind of duelist can be called a king."

"My turn, draw a card."

You Xuan drew a card and then randomly played a card from his hand.

"Continuous Spell 'Will of a Mortal'. While this card is on the field, if you draw a Normal Monster during your Draw Phase, reveal the card you drew to your opponent, and you can draw another card from your Deck."

"Normal monsters?"

Drouet was puzzled for a moment.

In her dimension, normal monsters are almost extinct. The effects of various monsters in the Xyz Dimension have been developed to a very high level, and almost no one would bring a plain, unpowered monster.

Aside from legendary rare cards like "Blue-Eyes White Dragon," most Normal Monsters in Xyz Dimension are only collectible; almost no one uses them. So, at first glance, Druwa even felt a bit unfamiliar with the term.

But she quickly thought of something else.

Previously gathered intelligence revealed that this dimension as a whole is lagging behind their hyperdimensional dimension.

Many duelists here still use Normal Monsters as attackers. Some of the mainstream cards and tactics in the environment also existed in the history of Xyz Dimension, but many of them are old systems that were eliminated many years ago in the history of dueling development.

So, in Drew's view, this dimension, overall, gave her the feeling of watching history unfold. The overall development of Duel Monsters in this world seemed to lag behind their dimension.

Thinking of this, Drew's lips curled up slightly.

Even if she were a Duel King, by the standards of their Xyz Dimension, she'd be a king from several generations ago. How could a modern person possibly lose to someone from an ancient era?
Yu Xuan: "It usually summons a 'female grizzly bear'."

A stream of water appeared on his field, and within the water condensed the form of a giant bear. The mother grizzly bear brandished its massive paws and let out a deep, powerful roar.

[Female grizzly bear, attack power 1400]

"Fight," You Xuan said. "Use 'Mother Grizzly Bear' to attack 'Phantom Butterfly Assassin - Flash Butterfly'."

The giant bear roared and charged forward, its massive paw slamming into the butterfly. The Phantom Butterfly Assassin crossed her wings, forming a shield in front of her, but it was clearly no match for the enormous bear paw.

"Such a straightforward and simple attack?" Drew muttered, then shouted, "Activate the face-down card, Trap Card 'Subordinate Scale Dust'!"
You can activate this effect when your opponent's monster declares an attack. Change the attacking monster to Defense Position, then equip this card to that monster!

A shower of golden scales, like butterflies fluttering in the sky, swirled around the mother grizzly bear. The bear, who was about to strike with her paw, abruptly stopped and then involuntarily shrank back into a defensive stance.

[Mother Grizzly, ATK 1400 → DEF 1000] "At this moment, the effect of Phantom Butterfly Assassin - Moirabutterfly activated!" Druwa said. "Phantom Butterfly Assassin - Moirabutterfly can reduce the ATK and DEF of an opponent's monster by 1000 points once per turn when the opponent's monster changes battle position!"

[Female Grizzly Bear, Attack/Defense 1400/1000 → 400/0]

“And the monster equipped with ‘Subordinate Scale Powder’ will be subject to my control,” Drew laughed. “Once every turn thereafter, I can freely manipulate the appearance of the equipped ‘Mother Grizzly Bear’.”

"It's outrageous that they can manipulate the form of my monsters at will, and that their attack and defense drop with this combination."

You Xuan shrugged.

"Then I'll set two cards face down, and the turn is over."

Druva couldn't help but chuckle softly.

She recognized the female grizzly bear. This was one of the earliest and most classic "Last Will" monsters, and also an old-school card.

If your opponent is using only these ancient cards, then even a so-called king is nothing to fear. He's just a dueling king in a museum.

The entire dueling environment in this dimension looks exactly like it did in the dimension Druva came from before the advent of "Xyz Summoning"—a long time ago for her.

"My turn, draw a card!"

Druwado.

"I summon 'Phantom Butterfly Assassin - Swallowtail'!"

This time, it was a butterfly assassin with golden wings who flew onto the field surrounded by golden scales.

【Phantom Butterfly Assassin - Swallowtail Butterfly, Attack Power 1800】

"Next, activate the effect of the equipped Trap Card 'Subordinate Scales,' changing the battle position of the equipped monster once per turn," Druwa said. "Return the Mother Grizzly that was switched to Defense last turn back to Attack!"

The mother grizzly bear let out a low growl of resentment, but surrounded by scales, she still managed to stand up unsteadily.

"Of course, at that moment, the effect of 'Phantom Butterfly Assassin - Phantasmal Butterfly' also activated again." Druwa sneered, "Phantom Butterfly reduces the attack and defense of the opponent's monster by 1000 points once per turn whenever the opponent's monster changes its battle position!"

The morpho butterfly flapped its wings again, sending a torrent of blue scales surging towards the mother grizzly bear. Surrounded by the countless scales, the grizzly bear's already dwindling attack power continued to decline.

[Female grizzly bear, attack power 400 → attack power 0]

"By manipulating the opponent's attack position, you can switch attacking monsters to defense to block attacks, or switch defensive monsters to offense to increase damage output. In combination with the effects of the Phantom Butterfly monster, you can also weaken the opponent's attack power."

You Xuan nodded in his comment.

"An interesting combination, isn't it?"

"You still have the leisure to calmly offer guidance?" Druwa said. "Then it seems I'm going to output even more damage."

"Go! Phantom Butterfly Assassin - Swallowtail, attack the mother grizzly bear whose attack power has been reduced to 0!"
