Why bother with the Holy Grail War? Let's play cards!

"Next, I activate the Field Spell Card [Snow Castle] and add an [Illya] from my deck to my hand. Then, I activate [Illya's] effect to Special Summon it to the field!"

[Ilya] Attack power 1500 → 2000

"I only have one card left, so I'm entering the battle stage! Illya attacks Goyanskaya!"

"Caster, do you know it?" Ilya followed Jiang You's words and launched an attack. Silver threads transformed into birds that flew around Beast, causing considerable damage.

□□LP4000→LP2000

"A name is just a label. Darling, you can call me whatever you want. I'll accept it~" Beast continued to speak flippantly.

"I'll set a card in the back row and end my turn." Jiang You didn't react to Beast's words. He'd seen this kind of boss design many times in games, and it wasn't like it was his own character. He should think about how to extract more cards from other NPCs.

"How indifferent. Are you just going to play passively?" Beast placed his hand on his deck. "It's my turn. Draw!"

"I activate [Golden Rule of the King of Heroes] from my hand, discard the matching cards from my hand to the Graveyard, and draw two cards."

Beast smiled brightly, seemingly having drawn something valuable. "My dear, you have a special power-up in your deck, right? Then let me show my disposition a bit. This is one of the rules of the non-primate survival circle: Heroic Spirit Repulsion!"

Chapter 58 You have so many lolis in your deck!

"【Heroic Repulsion】The opponent cannot respond to this card's effect. This card requires half of your Life Points to activate. Designate a card name; if that card exists in the opponent's deck, banish one card with the same name. When a card is successfully designated, it can only be activated once more without consuming Life Points." Beast looked at the solemn-faced Romulus, his face beaming. "That's right, the card I'm designating is 【Romulus Quirinus】!"

□□LP2000→LP1000

A stream of golden light shot out from Jiang You's deck and was sent to the Banished Zone. The powerful Crown Servant was sealed away before he could even appear on the field.

"Well, we have one more chance. Who should we exclude?" Beast searched his memory and found something to be careful about in Gilgamesh's memories. "I name [Justisa]! Servants whose effects are unknown are too dangerous. I will exclude her!"

One of Jiang You's trump cards was once again banished from the deck.

"This is so unfair! Girl, are you really that shameless?" In normal battles, this kind of card isn't very effective, since you can't specifically target Xyz Summoning maxima outside of the Extra Deck. But in this kind of collaboration event, it's incredibly powerful; even limited-time story-counter cards like Grand Summoning have been banned.

But it does fit in with the plot where there are specific heroic spirits who reject humans.

Beast smiled radiantly: "Thank you for the compliment, but I'm not that amazing."

"Then, I activate [Upholding Grace] and banish ten cards face-down to draw two. Then, use the effect of the Spell Card [Elixir of the Undying]! Special Summon [Gilgamesh] from the Graveyard!"

With the appearance of Gilgamesh, the King's Treasure was also unfolded, and the four original treasures were lined up in the backstage.

Gilgamesh's attack power increased from 3000 to 5000.

"Damn it, you insect, is this all the little girls you have on the field?!" Gilgamesh looked at Jiang You's situation and felt it was extremely dire. If Jiang You lost, the best outcome would be for the Beast to gain a fifth tail and for Jiang You's deck to become much stronger; the worst outcome would be if the Beast was telling the truth and the world was doomed. "You defeated me before, and I will not allow you to lose to something like this!"

"Everyone, look out! The big gift giveaway is coming! First up is [Morning Glory], and her 0 attack is terrifying!"

A treasure was released and shot towards the harmless brown loli.

"If I don't have a countermeasure, I won't let her out so easily. I activate the Quick-Play Spell Card [Battle Retreat]! I return a face-up Assassin to the user's hand and draw a card!"

Just as the Noble Phantasm was about to pierce the little girl, she transformed into a stream of light and returned to Jiang You's hand. Jiang You responded by drawing a card, staring at the Bitter Choice card in surprise. This was the first time he had drawn it without being predestined.

"As expected of my dear, but you still have to bear the effects of the release."

Jiangyou LP4000→LP3500

"Even so, there are still three more shots. Then this white loli, get out of here too!"

Another treasure was aimed at Illya.

"Caster, you promised to come and help me, so please don't lose." Illya met Gilgamesh's attack head-on and disappeared into the sharpness of the Noble Phantasm.

Jiangyou LP3500→LP3000

"Then, this Miss Kyoshinoko is the last line of defense. Mr. Gilgamesh, don't be too lenient with her!"

"Damn it—insects, show me what you've got!" Gilgamesh seemed even more anxious than Jiang You. He wanted to defy the beast's orders, but rules are rules, and even a Grand Master couldn't resist them, let alone someone like him in his current state.

The third Noble Phantasm was successfully released.

Jiangyou LP3000→LP2500

The explosion of the Noble Phantasm raised a large amount of dust, making it difficult to see what was going on inside.

"Got it~☆" But before beast's Kira Star could be fully released, Kyoko used her cloak to cleave the dust apart.

[Kuangxinzi] Attack power 2000 → 1500

"Breakthrough Body Temperature! Kyoshiko's effect can be activated when destroyed by battle or effect, removing one Xyz Material as a replacement without being destroyed!" Kyoshiko possesses the abilities of the 18th generation Hassan, although some are only similar, while others can unleash combat power exceeding the original.

"Well done!" Gilgamesh couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, then quickly realized that his attack had been easily neutralized by a low-ranking assassin who looked like a little girl. Feeling somewhat undignified, he coughed lightly and resumed his haughty demeanor.

"How greedy! It seems I won't be able to keep anything. Well then, the fourth one!" With beast's command, the last Noble Phantasm was also consumed.

Jiangyou LP2500→LP2000

Gilgamesh's attack power increased from 5000 to 3000.

[Kuangxinzi] Attack power 1500 → 1000

"My dear, now our attack power is just right. It's time to say goodnight. Gilgamesh attacks Zealot!"

Gilgamesh was, after all, a top-tier Heroic Spirit, and under the right conditions, he possessed the ability to end a battle directly. However, Jiang You was not without a solution.

"I activate the effect of [Morning Glory] in my hand. When your opponent's Servant declares an attack, you can only activate this card by discarding it from your hand. That monster changes to Defense Position!"

The shadow of a brown loli appeared in front of Gilgamesh, her tearful appearance was adorable. Gilgamesh could not swing the sword no matter what, and he was turned into defensive position.

Gilgamesh: Defense 2500

"What a pity." Beast covered three cards in his back row and ended his turn.

"My turn, draw a card!"

"First, I activate the [Bitter Choice] choice, selecting two [Emiya Kiritsugu] and one [Heaven's Clothes]! Come on, Beast, make your choice!"

"Honey, do you really want [Origin Bullet] that badly?" Beast rolled her eyes. She needed to reduce Jiang You's card draw. "I choose [Emiya Kiritsugu]."

"Because of the Graveyard effect of Emiya Kiritsugu, I will add a Origin Bullet to my hand."

Jiang You began his basic process, "Use the effect of [Celestial Clothes] in the Graveyard to banish an [Illya] and Special Summon it in Attack Position on the field!"

"Trying to teleport that Illya again, huh?" Beast casually flipped open the back panel. "You can't be thinking about other women on a date, okay? I'm activating the effect of [Beast IV's Tail] to destroy [Heavenly Garment]!"

Chapter 59 Do you still remember that the Origin Missile had more than one effect?

"Now you can't revive [Heavenly Garment] from the graveyard this turn." Knowing the rule that Heavenly Garment can only be revived once per turn, beast decisively destroyed it with a card to prevent Synchro Summoning Ilya, which can negate one destruction per turn.

"Don't rush, I'll activate the effect of [Snow City] to search for an Einzbern card, and the card I want to add is [Lyserite]!" Jiang You was already prepared; there's more than one way to summon the Heavenly Garment.

"I discard this card from my hand to the Graveyard and Special Summon [Cloak of Heaven] from my Deck!"

The Einzbern's ceremonial attire reappeared in the battle area.

"Well, here it comes! Special Summon [Illya] from your hand!"

"Caster, just like before, right? Let me spread my wings and fly to the sky once again!" Ilya was already used to cooperating with Jiang You. She reached out to the Heavenly Robe and shouted her own summoning line.

The girl in formal attire stands in the sky.

[Illya (Heavenly Clothes)] Attack Power 2500 → 3000

"Wait! I didn't agree!" Beast reached out and activated his card. "[Chains of Heaven] Seal Ilya!"

The golden chains pounced on Illya like a giant python, crisscrossing her body. Unable to mobilize her magic power, Illya was locked in mid-air.

"What a troublesome thing. I put a Servant facedown on defense, cover a card in the backfield, and switch [Fanatical] to defense position. End my turn." Jiang You had no cards on the field that could break through Gilgamesh's defense, so he could only end his turn hastily. However, his two covered cards were no different from open cards.

"Then I can't waste the card effects in the graveyard. I'll activate the effect of [Beast IV: Tail], copy the panel of [Heavenly Garment], and Special Summon it to the field in Defense Position!" Beast increased its field attack again before the end of the turn.

[Beast IV Tail] Attack Power 1500

"Now, it's my turn, draw a card!" Beast drew his card, and for a moment, unknown murmurs began to echo in everyone's ears.

Black magic power along with scarlet evil thoughts surged on the cards, and the powerful sense of oppression made it difficult for everyone present to breathe.

Everyone realized what card Beast had drawn, one that was against humanity and enough to destroy human nature.

The power of the "beast"!

"So, this is fate?" Beast couldn't suppress her smile; her wild expression made her resemble a wild beast. "Then I will offer my beloved the grandest farewell!"

"First, activate the Trap Card [Beast IV: Tail] to destroy [Illya (Heavenly Garment)]!"

Because of the suppression of the Heaven's Chain, Illya was unable to activate her own effect, and the White Hand's palm pierced her heart.

Eliza was sent to the cemetery before she even had time to scream.

"The same [Beast IV Tail] copies Illya's destroyed panel!"

Illya, dressed in black celestial clothing, appeared on Beast's field.

[Beast IV Tail] Attack Power 2500

"Beasts need a stage to fight! I activate [Non-Primate Survival Zone], removing all non-Beast Servants from both sides' fields and graveyards—Servants that cannot break through have no value!"

All the servants on Jiang You's field and Gilgamesh on Beast's field were squeezed out by the sudden arrival of the warm world and sent to the exclusion zone.

Beast IV Tail: Attack Power 1500 → 2500

Beast IV Tail: Attack Power 2500 → 3500

"Because the covered cards on my field cannot display the class, they will not be excluded!" Jiang You still had a defensive card left.

"I know, my dear, don't worry, our dance continues!" Beast raised the card in her hand, tangible magic coalescing in her palm. "[Beast IV] Effect: When performing a Superior Summon, if the target selected is a Beast, only one is required! So, listen to the dying cries of the creatures, I Superior Summon the Beast of Recreation [Beast IV]!"

Those were the cries of animals helplessly facing instant extinction, the cries of animals persecuted by humans until now, their desire to be extinguished and to regain physical existence.

It was a beast that was born to seek revenge on humans.

Humanity's evil is revealed here.

[BeastⅣ] Attack Power 0

"Wait a minute, I'm going to activate the Quick Attack Spell Card [Origin Bullet]! Destroy [Beast IV's Tail]!"
