Duels should be played with a smile.

They frequently search for multiple cards and precisely fill the graveyard with several cards. Many of the effects of reptile-type cards are quite outrageous, but when put together, they can't create any powerful decks, which is also quite absurd.

"You can't just search for this. I need to chain your effects to activate the thunder and snow weather effects!"

"C1 your Urdna, C2 thunder weather, C3 snow weather."

When the declaration takes effect, the cost required for the effect is paid directly. Thus, under Anubis's watchful eye, snow and thunder weather conditions simply disappeared into the banished zone.

This means that when the effect is resolved, there will be no monsters with 0 attack on the field.

"The effect of snow weather, excluding yourself, is to retrieve a weather card."

It still can activate even though there's no effect written on it, because the Weather-based Continuous Spell & Trap Monsters will provide effects to the Main Monster Zone in the same column and the Weather Effect Monsters in the two adjacent columns.

"I'm adding the Continuous Trap [Thunder Weather Pattern] to my hand."

"Then there's the effect of Thunder Weather: If your opponent controls a monster, banish yourself to activate this effect and Special Summon 1 Weather Monster with a different name from your own."

I will Special Summon [Rainy Day Azure] to the 3rd position monster zone.

The deck search is a continuous spell effect of snow weather, and the deck special summon is a continuous trap effect of rainbow weather. Weather monsters and spell/trap monsters are closely related. As long as they work together, they can unleash tremendous power. This also means that if either the front or back row is missing and cannot be summoned, then the monster will simply die.

Rainy Weather seems older than Thunder and Snowy Weather. The small glasses on her nose add a touch of literary flair, and the bright blue paintbrush in her hand is the tool she uses to bring rain to people.

[Water ★★★ · Angel · Defense 1400]

At this point, Yuki Onna only has Rain on the field with a non-zero attack power. When it's Reptile Fairy's turn to deal with the effect, she can only watch helplessly as Rain is dealt with, unable to search for any cards.

"It's just a trivial trick... This little trick will only make me waste a little more time."

"It's just a trivial skill, but it works." The Snow Woman reached out and ruffled Yu Tianqi's smooth hair. Yu Tianqi had run away, but it felt quite nice to rub her hair.

"If I successfully Special Summon a Weather Spell/Trap Card from my hand, I can place one Weather Spell/Trap Card from my hand into my back row. I will place the 'Thunder Weather Spell' that I just searched into my back row, slot 4."

The snow has stopped and rain has started. At times like these, it's perfectly normal to see some lightning.

Another card with an unknown effect and purpose has been placed in the Spell & Trap Zone. Anubis hadn't fully figured out the purpose of those Spell & Trap cards to begin with, and now he might have to guess their effects all over again.

"No matter what effect you have, once you activate it, it needs to be banished, and you only have one monster on the field right now, which is no match for my attack!"

"Circuit manifested! The summoning condition is to include two Reptile-type monsters. I'll set two Fairy Maidens as arrows!"

"Link Summoning! Link 2 [Alien Soldier Powerful Exoskeleton]!"

Its dark green body, resembling an unidentified creature that hunts in swamps, descended amidst a strange halo. Its exoskeleton armor made it look more like a ferocious beast than an alien.

[Light · Link 2 · Reptile · Attack Power 1900 · Arrow ↙↘]

"The alien's effect: once per turn, discard one monster from your hand and place A-counters on all face-up monsters on the field, the total number of which equals the original Level of the discarded monster."

"I discard the Level 8 [Darkness of the Underworld - Alette] from my hand and place 8 counters on Rainy Day on your field."

"Alien predation!"

Unidentified projectiles carrying pheromones flew from the aliens toward Yuqi. The Snow Woman waved her hand lightly, swatting away the disgusting things, but some strange smells still clung to Yuqi.

Yuki-onna is unhappy with Anubis, and Anubis is equally unhappy with Yuki-onna's weather deck. Because of its ability to escape at any time, many of the combos in his deck cannot be fully utilized. If Yuki-onna didn't have only one monster on the field right now, Anubis would be able to make a huge profit later.

"The Spell Card 【Snake Lily of the Netherworld】: Send 1 Reptile Monster to the Graveyard from your Deck. After that, if you have 5 or more Reptile Monsters in your Graveyard, you can revive 1 Reptile Monster in your Graveyard."

A golden water lily bloomed in the center of the field, its sacred appearance making people curious about what kind of existence was being nurtured within.

"I'm sending [Ogdo Abyss, the Netherworld God] from my deck to the Graveyard!"

"Then, because my graveyard meets the conditions, I can Special Summon the Netherworld God directly to my field!"

"Creator of the Abyss! I call upon your name, return from the Underworld!"

"The God of the Underworld - Augdo Abis!"

As the waves rose, a serpent god with wings and wearing gleaming golden armor emerged from the surging waters.

[Light - 10★ - Reptile - Attack Power 3100]

With a flap of its wings, it can disperse all snowflakes or rain. Before the power of the creator god, even the weather is under its jurisdiction and cannot resist its command.

Compared to the enormous serpent god, the tiny weather creature could only tremble in fear behind the snow woman.

People have always been inclined to sympathize with the weak and care for those who are more attractive, and now the Snow Woman has both.

As a result, the audience's support became overwhelmingly one-sided.

Anubis has become a wicked and oppressive demon king, while Yuki-onna and the others are just ordinary, pitiful, and helpless little girls.

"The outcome of a duel is determined solely by the duel itself; everything outside the arena is futile!"

"Enter battle phase!"

"Alien soldiers, attack that rainy weather!"

Considering the effects of the lightning attack that had just been unleashed and were still unknown, Anubis played it safe and did not immediately activate the effect of the Netherworld God. Instead, he chose to test the waters with an attack.

then...

"Why are you bullying us? I just wanted to show everyone how colorful the weather can be!"

While adopting a pitiful and weak posture, the Snow Woman also flipped open the card that had been covered up earlier.

"Everyone saw it; I was merely forced to retaliate..."

"Trap card, [Divine Shield - Mirror Force -], its effect needs no explanation, right?"

"I was simply acting in self-defense."

The intense flash of light made it difficult for the audience to open their eyes. By the time the light faded, Anubis had no cards left on the field.

At this point, no one wanted to criticize the Snow Woman for her excessive self-defense—beauty is justice!

"Don't be too happy yet!"

"Another effect of the alien! This effect can only be activated if this card is destroyed by battle or card effect and sent to the Graveyard. You can Special Summon up to one Reptile-Type monster other than Link Monsters from your Graveyard, equal to the number of Link Monsters your opponent controls with A Counters."

Despite its apparent limitations, the simple and direct resurrection effect meant that for Anubis, whose monsters were all reptiles, it was like reviving a whole bunch of monsters with a single card. If it weren't for the fact that all the other weather monsters had run away, he was even confident that he could end the duel directly with this effect.

So why is it that a bunch of fake Reptile-type cards just can't get going? This alien's effect isn't limited to the opponent destroying it; it can pull monsters just as well if it destroys itself!

"You only have one monster on your field, so I can only revive one, but just one is enough! Return once more, Netherworld God!"

Although it's unclear why aliens can summon local gods, the special scent left on the body during the rainy weather began to emanate, seemingly calling for the arrival of something.

"Ugh~ What a headache-inducing effect..." Yuki-onna sighed, shaking her head as she put her hand to her forehead. Her distressed expression made the audience feel sorry for her.

The heartache lasted only a second.

"So, in order to avoid giving me a headache, I'll just have to give you one... You shouldn't mind, right?"

"Counter Trap Card, [Divine Announcement], pay 1500 LP to negate and destroy the activation of your monster's effect."

[Yuki-onna LP: 8000 → 6500]

The old god, nicknamed "The Unforgivable God," responded at lightning speed and arrived at Anubis's tomb in an instant. With a wave of his hand, a bolt of lightning struck the alien, knocking him unconscious.

"..."

Looking at the Netherworld God who couldn't rise from the dead in the graveyard, Anubis's hand holding the cards trembled slightly.

"I...I'll cover two cards, end of turn."

There are 15 cards in the graveyard and 2 face-down cards on the field. This is Anubis's final result for this turn.

Compared to the Snow Woman's formation of one in front and three behind, it was rather pathetic, and even the audience began to feel sorry for this muscular man—there weren't many female duelists, but there weren't a few either, and as for many male duelists... well, you know what I mean.

"Well then, it's my turn now!"

She changed from her previous gloomy expression to full of energy in the blink of an eye, and personally demonstrated to the audience what it means to change faces.

"Gacha pull! Then comes the preparation phase, my little darlings are coming back!"

"Snowy weather, come back! Then comes thundery weather!"

The two little guys, who had spent a round in the excluding area, happily flew up and pounced into the snow woman's arms.

"Don't be too happy yet!" Anubis suddenly interrupted.

"By linking with the snowy weather's return effect, I activate the face-down Trap Card, 'Call of the Netherworld'. Based on its effect, I Special Summon two different Reptile Monsters from my Graveyard!"

"Return! God of the Netherworld, and King of the Netherworld!"

"...What kind of fake card is this?"

Chapter 138 The Supreme and Strongest Devourer Appears!

The effects of the Netherworld God and the Netherworld King are currently unknown, but Anubis's two attempts to revive the Netherworld God prove that the Netherworld God at least has a second-speed effect, and the Netherworld King is likely to have the same.

Ignoring the unknown effects on the enemy, prioritizing the safety of oneself is the top priority. After a moment's thought, Yuki-onna activated the subsequent effects.

"C3 activates the effect of the rain weather on the field, searches the deck for a weather card, and I add snow weather to my hand again."

Rainy Weather escaped again thanks to the effect of Snow Weather Magic in the back row, and retrieved Snow Weather. Even if the Netherworld King is able to destroy the back row later, Snow Weather can at least ensure that there will be a follow-up.

Moreover, this is his turn, and even if Anubis revives two monsters, he cannot kill them during the opponent's turn—the Reptilian race, which can do such a thing, would not be a universally acknowledged weak race.

"A monster with zero attack power can be used by me! But before that, you must experience the greatness of my monster!"

"King of the Netherworld! God of the Netherworld! Return to the battlefield!"

The two giant snakes, resurrected by the Trap Card, and the 2800 DEF Neptune and 3100 ATK Neptune seem to be two insurmountable walls for weather monsters, whose attack power is generally not high.

"C1, Snow weather, return the field to position 3, then the new chain, semi-class, Thunder weather, return the field, and place the attack on position 4."

Two adorable weather monsters have returned to the field, and the Snow Woman now has two in front and three in back, which looks much better than the opponent's two in front and one in back.

"Now that everyone's here, I don't need to wait any longer! I've been waiting for the moment your monster returns to the field!"

The sea god, who had been stirring up the waves, suddenly swung his enormous body, and the surging tide, under his control, rushed towards the lovely weather monsters.

"The effect of the Netherworld God! This effect can only be activated once while this card is face-up on the field. Send all monsters on your or your opponent's field, except for face-up monsters Special Summoned from the Graveyard, to the Graveyard! This effect can also be activated during your opponent's turn!"

"You now have only two choices: either send all your monsters away, or let my Netherworld God send them all to the graveyard!"

Anubis had already figured it out: if the Weather deck wanted to do anything, it had to banish monsters. Even if he activated the effect of the Netherworld God now, he might not be able to send those annoying weather monsters to the graveyard.

However, even if it's not sent to the graveyard, Anubis's goal is simply to survive this turn. If he intervenes and forces Yuki-onna to activate her effect prematurely, preventing weather monsters from staying on the field and activating their effects at the appropriate time according to Yuki-onna's wishes, it will definitely have a significant impact on Yuki-onna's actions.

"Tsk...what an annoying big bug. You've won by a small margin this time..."
