The card player needs to win easily

"Once again, I activate the Trap Card "Infinite Bubble" from my hand! This negates the effect of your "Snake-Eyes Ash Spirit"!"

"How difficult... He truly lives up to his title as the father of Duel Monsters. Even in such a mentally exhausted state, he's still able to make basic decisions."

Peacock Dance calmed down.

The Bekas in front of him seemed to be persisting for something.

"But you understand, right? Your spirit has long been exhausted from the continuous tension. It's time to give up. No matter what, it won't change the outcome of failure."

"It's hard to say... I won't lose so easily."

Bekas smiled bitterly and continued watching the duel on the field.

(…Soon, Beckas, as long as you can hold on until then.)

He talked to himself.

"..."

Peacock Dance seemed to see someone's shadow - however, these visions quickly disappeared from her sight.

"I stacked two monsters! Lyrical Robin - Chanting Starling!"

"Remove one Xyz Material and activate this card's effect again! Add "Lyrical Robin - Beryl Canary" from your deck to your hand!"

"At the same time, stack the two Xyz monsters together to Xyz Summon "Future No. 0 Future Emperor Hope"!"

"And, stack it once more on top of it—Xyz Summon "Future No. 0 Future Dragon Emperor Hope" in Defense Position!"

The Pegasus warrior appeared on the field with double blades in hand and wings spread.

"Activate the continuous spell 'Lyrical Robin - Bird Sanctuary'! Also, due to this card's effect, when I have three or more Xyz monsters with Xyz materials on the field, I can draw a card!"

Reaching to the top of the deck, Peacock Dance drew a card.

She glanced at it lightly and added it to her hand - but Beckas felt an unusual power in that card.

"Are you coming?"

"That's right, Bekas, you can really feel this power..."

"The card I drew is, 'Orichalcum Barrier'."

A emerald green hexagram magic circle appeared from under Peacock Dance's feet.

In a few breaths, the circle expanded to cover the entire room.

"I activate the field magic, 'Orichalcum Barrier'!"

A hexagram appeared on Peacock Dance's forehead.

A flash of red light flashed in her eyes.

"call……"

The peacock dance brings a smile and a refreshing feeling.

"It's like being liberated—Bekas, are you ready to look at this world for the last time?"

Bekas, who was standing opposite, forced himself to steady his body and looked at the green hexagram.

"The power to evoke the darkness in people's hearts and amplify it... is terrifying."

"My guess, my investigation... is absolutely correct."

"So what? Beckas, this investigation has already brought you disaster."

Peacock Dance looked proudly at the silver-haired man who bent his spine, unable to hide the smile on the corner of her mouth.

Now, Bekas is as miserable as a stray dog.

"Surrender, and I may be able to let you sleep peacefully—"

"But, I refuse."

Even though it was difficult for him to stand, Bekas still held the duel disk.

"If you can defeat Me, then come on, You—"

"Ok."

Peacock Dance sighed regretfully.

"According to the effect of 'Orichalcum Barrier', draw a card from your deck."

"After that, activate the effect of "Lyric Robin - Beryl Canary" to Special Summon this card and "Lyric Robin - Cobalt Spire Sparrow"!"

"Next, stack the two monsters—"

"Lyrical Robin - Chorus of Little Liuli!"

"I'll use the "Lyric Robin - Lapis Lazuli" in the Graveyard as an Xylo Material for "Lyric Robin - Chorus Glaze" and I'll Face it. And just like that, the turn ends!"

"Becas, it's your turn!"

The most classic scene is the combination of "Future No. 0 Future Emperor Hope" and "Lyrical Robin - Chorus Little Liuli".

Even for Bekas's deck, this situation was not very disruptive - but for him who only had two cards in his hand and was in a poor mental state, it was not a situation he could easily get through.

Anyway, it's Bekas' turn now.

"My... turn!"

————————————————————————————————————

Something furry was rubbing against the grass.

A small voice came from a distance, groping forward quietly.

"..."

Liva... probably fell asleep.

If you force yourself to lie still and quietly on the grass for an hour, even the most active mind will calm down.

"Woo..."

Liva muttered something and turned over.

The footsteps not far away paused.

When the sound of even breathing once again lingered around the extinguished fire, the rustling sound of the grass rubbing against it continued to ring out.

The blue pupils looked at Liva on the ground.

A few whispers in sleep could be heard softly from beneath the loose purple hair.

In the moonlight, the guardian dragon stood beside the girl, looking up at the starry sky.

Then, it shook itself, took off its golden armor made of some mechanical debris, and dropped it aside.

The metal fell onto the grass and sank into the soil without making a sound.

"..."

Looking at Liva, Long stood silently for a while.

It folded its wings and placed them on both sides of its body.

Roll up the tail and wrap it around the body.

Then, he leaned gently against Liva and closed his eyes.

"..."

I felt a strange touch from my side.

Liva's eyelashes twitched, but she didn't open them.

Perhaps feeling the familiar touch, she turned over again, moved to the dragon's side, and gently hugged it.

“Guhehe…”

The frowning brows relaxed.

As if she had dreamed of something good, Liva smiled with satisfaction.

The dragon adjusted its position slightly.

Under the moonlight, two figures fell asleep on the ground.

……

The morning light illuminates the horizon.

The sounds of nature once again filled the place.

When Liva opened her eyes, the sun's rays were already shining on her face.

"Well--"

Liva felt that her sleep quality yesterday was particularly good.

It's as refreshing as welcoming New Year's morning in new underwear.

With her mind empty, Liva brushed off a few strands of green hair from her hands and stared blankly ahead.

"I want to brush my teeth...I don't have a toothbrush."

She suddenly realized that she did not seem to be in a civilized society.

The whole night has passed, and it's time to find a way to get back.

Shaking her head to get rid of the confused thoughts, Liva propped herself up and stood up.

But because he stepped on something soft, he lost his balance and fell.

“Guuuu!?”

It was not the feeling I had imagined, with grass and dirt flying all over my face.

...but rather like falling onto some soft cushion.

Liva struggled to get up and looked at the ground.

"..."

A green dragon that looked very familiar was lying on the ground.

Because of the impact, it slowly opened its eyes and looked at Liva with its blue pupils.

"...?"

Liva was stunned for a full second.

Her mind was struggling to process the situation.

Raising his palm, the green hair seemed to still retain some warmth.

“…Gurgle gurgle.”

The dragon in front of him made a sound from its throat, as if accusing Liva of pulling out its hair.

The man and the dragon looked at each other.

"..."

"..."

“What the hell just happened?!?”

Doma: Chapter 156: The High-Level Devotee

Under the backdrop of green fluorescence, Beckas pulled out the card.

He glanced at his watch secretly.

"I set two cards face down and activate the Spell Card 'Life-Destroying Treasure Card'!"

"This effect allows me to draw cards from my deck until I have three cards in my hand!"

Glancing at the cards in his hand, Bekas decided on his next move.

"As a pendulum scale, 'Dream Nimrelia'!"

"And, due to the effect of 'Dream of Nimurelia', I place a 'Nimurelia's Bedroom' from my deck on the field, and add this card to my Extra Deck."
