Who asked him to play Yu-Gi-Oh!

Chapter 1487 Fallen Angel
Drubey's face darkened.

The Xyz Material of Light Angel: Radiant Ring was consumed, and its Battle Destruction Resistance was also negated. The card the opponent drew practically screamed "targeting."

Moreover, the other person just said "this dimension," which makes it seem as if they are not from this dimension.

Druby's mind stirred slightly.

Who is this guy?

"Then the battle began," You Xuan said. "Silent Magician LV8, attack 'NO.102 Light Angel - Radiant Halo'!"

[Silent Magician LV8, Attack Power 3500]

[NO.102 Angel of Light - Radiant Ring, Attack Power 2500]

A magical storm of light gathered in the arena, swirling around the staff held aloft by the Silent Magician. The rubble and debris on the ground seemed to be drawn in, swirling several times under the magical pull, until they were absorbed into the sphere of light on the staff and became part of it.

Silent Demon Blast!
boom--

A violent explosion occurred, and the magical orb shattered almost touching Huihuan's face. Drubey lowered his center of gravity and tried to steady himself, but he was ultimately blown backward by the magical storm, tumbling twice before crashing to the ground.

[Drube, LP2000 → LP1000]

However, golden beams of light shot out from within the smoke. As the smoke gradually dissipated, the Angel of Light, Radiant Halo, remained standing firm, blocking the Drube field. However, her posture seemed to have shifted from offense to defense, appearing to be in a crouching defensive position, with her spear blocking the field.

[NO.102 Angel of Light - Radiant Ring, Defense 2000]

You Xuan: "Oh? So you managed to preserve the Radiant Ring?"

"I activated the Faceless Trap Card 'Half-Defense'." Drubey pointed to the flipped-up trap projection on the field. "When a face-up Attack Position monster on your field is targeted for an attack, you can activate this effect. That monster is not destroyed by that battle, and after damage calculation, it is changed to Defense Position." (Anime Card)
So even though he took the damage, at least the monster was saved.

Drube: "The only thing that stacking destruction can nullify is the monster's inherent 'cannot be destroyed in battle' effect; it can still be prevented by using traps."

You Xuan nodded: "Indeed. Then I'll set one card face down, and the turn will end."

Drubey took a heavy breath and slowly straightened up.

He had sensed from the beginning that his opponent was somewhat unusual, but after exchanging blows twice, he was even more certain of it. His opponent appeared to be nothing more than a human—in the common understanding of the Balian world, humans were mostly considered lowly and inferior species, and were generally not taken seriously.

Of course, they had heard that there were also strong individuals among the human race, but as far as they knew, there were only a handful of them.

“Who are you?” Drubey asked.

"Me? I'm irrelevant now, not famous at all, not worth mentioning. Just think of me as a duelist passing by." You Xuan smiled.

Druby fell silent.

An unknown nobody? Are you kidding me?
This kind of spirit and the level of skill in this duel could absolutely not be attributed to an unknown nobody. Drubey was certain of this.

hateful.

Drube clenched his fist. He had heard from Vector about the awakening of the seven No. 1s from the Varia. Vector said that these seven No. 1s were also of great importance to them and could not fall into human hands. That was why he had come all the way from the Varia world to find this ruin and retrieve the No. 1s.

But now he could sense bursts of energy emanating from the depths of the ruins, clearly indicating a duel—and a battle at the extraordinary level between No. 1s. This only meant one thing: the man before him hadn't come alone, but with teammates. His teammates had most likely already ventured deep into the ruins and were engaged in combat with the power guarding No. 1 of these ruins.

If this person's teammate wins the duel, they will undoubtedly gain the No. 1 spot in the ruins. Furthermore, since Drube has already discovered that this person is quite strong, it must be assumed that their teammate's dueling ability is also likely formidable, greatly increasing the chances of successfully reclaiming the No. 1 spot.

Since that's the case, I can't linger here any longer. I must seize every second to break through the man in front of me, and ideally, I should be able to interrupt this ritual before the duel in the ruins ends.

Drube gently closed his eyes, his fingers resting on the deck but not immediately drawing a card, as if he were charging up.

"Sorry, human, you seem like a worthy opponent. But I'm in a hurry today, so I'm going to go all out from here on out!"

"Dreub shouted."

"My turn, draw a card!"

As the card was drawn, a surge of energy accompanied it. It was as if the otherworldly energy of the Balian was concentrated into that card, enveloping the entire card in crimson flames.

There's almost no need to open the draw to confirm; both parties can guess what they've drawn.

"Rank-Up Spell - Valiant Power!" Drube shouted. "This card can use Xyz Monsters on your field as Material to Overlay and Xyz Summon a Chaos Xyz Monster! Descend—"

—CNO.102 Fallen Angel of Light, Noble Demon!!!

As he spoke, the Light Angel Radiant Halo on the field had already sunk into the vortex of supermassive energy, enveloped by the power of chaos.

The tyrannical chaos etched black armor onto the angel's body; light turned to darkness, the angel became a fallen angel, and the golden armor was stained deep black. The javelin of light transformed into raging thunder, swirling in the fallen angel's hand.

【CNO.102 Fallen Angel of Light - Noble Demon, Attack Power 2900】

"Oh, over a hundred Chaos No. numbers have appeared. Looks like they're getting serious now." You Xuan's robes fluttered in the chaotic energy waves, but his tone remained relaxed.

Drubey said, "Now I'll let you experience the power of the Seven Emperors firsthand, the impact on my soul!"

He threw a punch from afar: "CNO.102 Fallen Angel of Light - Noble Demon, effect activated!"
Remove one Xyz Material, negate the effects of one monster your opponent controls, and reduce that monster's ATK to 0!

The upgraded version of the Radiant Ring effect. Radiant Ring can erase monster effects and halve attack power, while Noble Demon reduces the opponent's attack power to 0, making it more direct and brutal.

"Reduce the attack power of 'Silent Magician LV8' to 0!"

The fallen angel locked onto the white-robed mage, and the power of chaos transformed into the form of lightning, which struck down fiercely towards Youxuan's territory like a thunderbolt!
"Sorry, although your Valiant Chaos and such seem powerful, don't underestimate mages." Yu Xuan said, "Activate face-down card, Quick-Play Spell 'Silence of Time - Turn Silence'!"
This card targets one monster you control; increase that monster's Level by 3. I increased the Level 8 Silent Magician's Level 8 to 11!

[Silent Magician LV8, LV8→ LV11]

Drubeck asked, "Raising the star level at this critical juncture?"

"The key is the follow-up effect," You Xuan said with a smile. "If the effect of the turn silence is chained to the activation of an opponent's monster effect, then that monster's effect is negated."

Drube: "!"
