The protagonist of the Yu-Gi-Oh! world might be the same person.

The sudden praise startled Nightwalker, who was still angry about the minotaur's behavior, and he became somewhat embarrassed.

"Y-really?"

Jonouchi nodded and smiled, "That's right, Pegasus will definitely be proud of you too."

"Thanks......"

Nightwalker found the other person's words very agreeable, after all, Pegasus, whom Jonouchi mentioned, was his most beloved adoptive father.

Ye Xing's face flushed at the mention of Pegasus's name.

Jonouchi's unintentional words touched the softest part of his heart, instantly dispelling any resentment he harbored towards her.

Night Walk: Jonouchi is a friend worth having!

His mood improved somewhat, and he finally focused his attention back on the duel.

He inserted a card into the Duel Disk and said, "I'll set one last card face down. End of turn."

[Pegasus Night Walk Cards: 2 → 1]

"And because the opponent only has three cards left on the field, the evil god's attack power is reduced by 3000 points."

"At the same time, due to the end of the round, the attack power of [War God Cloth] is restored to its original state."

[Evil God Destroyer: Attack Power 6000 → 3000]

[War God General: Attack Power 2500 → 2200]

"Hoo~~".

Seeing that the opponent had ended their turn, Jonouchi breathed a sigh of relief.

It's a bit of a shame that we couldn't defeat the opponent using the Minotaur, but it's already pretty good that we managed to escape unscathed.

The real test is yet to come.

"My turn, draw a card!"

[Jouchi Katsuya’s hand cards: 2→3]

After glancing at the card in his hand, Jonouchi ignored it and pointed it directly at the War God, shouting, "Battle begins! [Red-Eyes Black Blade Dragon] Attack!"

"At this moment, the monster's special effect activates, equipping it with a Warrior-Type monster from the Graveyard as an Equip Card, increasing its ATK by 200."

Flames suddenly burst forth from the blades on the Blackblade Dragon's arm.

Chapter 190 The Source of Fear of the Evil God

Seeing the changes in the Blackblade Dragon, Pegasus Night Walk raised an eyebrow, "Is its attack power the same as the Blue-Eyes White Dragon...?"

"However, since Mr. Jonouchi has one more card on the field, the attack power of [Evil God Annihilator] has increased by 1000 points."

[Evil God Destroyer: Attack Power 3000 → 4000]

"In this respect, the evil god still has the upper hand in terms of attack power."

"Yes, of course I understand... so my target is naturally another monster."

Then Jonouchi pointed at the God of War and shouted, "Go! Attack [God of War]!"

At his command, the Black Blade Dragon swung its arms, and two flaming arm blades unleashed two blades of energy mixed with black flames, striking towards the demon.

boom--!

Two blades of energy sliced ​​through the demon's body, instantly severing it.

"Uh......"

The injury penetrated the body that was moving at night.

[Pegasus at Night: LP4000→3200]

“That was a very effective attack, but in doing so, Mr. Jonouchi, you have triggered the trap I set.”

Nightwalker calmly pressed the button to reveal the card and shouted, "Open the card, activate the Trap Card [Level Barrier]!"

"If your monster is destroyed by your opponent, you can Special Summon any number of monsters from your Deck whose total Levels are equal to the Level of the destroyed monster."

"【Army God of War】is Level 6, so I can Special Summon three Level 2 【Hourglass of Life】from my Deck in Defense Position by negating their effects."

He lined up the three cards on the duel disk, and then three winged hourglasses were projected onto the screen.

[Hourglass of Life: Defense 600] ×3

"Amazing! They've gathered all three sacrifices needed to summon the evil god..."

Looking at this row of monsters, Jōnei felt a headache coming on.

"Since the effect of [War God Gaibu] has disappeared, I changed the two [Sheep Tokens] to Defense Position."

"End of round."

[Sheep Derivative: Defense 0] ×2

After reinforcing the defenses, the castle ended the turn.

"It's my turn again, time to draw a card!"

[Pegasus Night Walk Cards: 1 → 2]

"Mr. Jonouchi, now I'll show you the form of the second god..."

With that, he placed the card in his left hand, then grabbed the evil god card with his right hand and raised it high, shouting, "I offer up all three [Hourglasses of Life] as sacrifices to bring down the gods!"

The three hourglasses transformed into three streams of energy that converged and flowed into the card in Nightwalker's hand.

"Evil god, descend upon me!"

"The Second Evil God, [The Source of Evil God's Fear], is summoned!"

As Nightwalker slammed the card onto the Duel Disk, a thick, dark mist, capable of covering the entire arena, rose from beneath his feet once more, and a gigantic figure slowly emerged from the mist.

It was a gray-green giant with a pair of bone wings on its back, its arms and head protected by stark white bones, and its form corresponding to that of the Colossus.

[The Source of Fear from the Evil God: Attack Power 4000]

[Pegasus Night Walk Cards: 2 → 1]

Looking at this terrifying evil god, Jonouchi felt immense pressure and exclaimed, "Attack power of 4000 points... Is this the same as Obelisk?"

Nightwalker said calmly, "That's right, this evil god's original attack power is 4000 points, and like the God of Destruction, it possesses the purest power."

"And as long as [Source of Fear] exists on the field, the ATK and DEF of all monsters other than itself are halved."

"Large breasts!?"

Roar--! !

The giant roared, and under the influence of the aura of fear, all the monsters were suppressed.

【Red-Eyes Blackblade Dragon: Attack Power 3000 → 1500】

[Evil God Destroyer: Attack Power 4000 → 2000]

"Red-Eyes' attack power has dropped to 1500 points... This is really bad..."

Cold sweat kept pouring down his face.

"Take this, Mr. Jonouchi!"

Without hesitation, Ye Xing launched his attack. He waved his hand and shouted, "[Source of Evil God's Fear] Attack [Red-Eyed Black Blade Dragon], Terrifying Kill!"

The evil giant god swung his massive fist, which struck the Blackblade Dragon in an instant.

boom--!

Jonouchi hurriedly shouted, "The special effect of [Centennial Dragon] means that [Red-Eyes Black Blade Dragon] can only be used once without being destroyed!"

The protective layer on the Blackblade Dragon's body was instantly shattered by the divine fist.

“But Mr. Jonouchi, you will suffer more than half of the damage.”

As soon as Ye Xing finished speaking, the impact of the source of fear bypassed the Blackblade Dragon and struck Jonouchi.

"Uhhhhh-!"

[Jouchi Katsuya: LP3800→1300]

"My attack isn't over yet! [Evil God Annihilator] attacks [Red-Eyes Black Blade Dragon], Great Judgment Flame!"

At his command, the evil dragon opened its mouth wide, and a stream of demonic flame was spewed out, instantly engulfing the black-bladed dragon.

boom--! !

A loud explosion followed, instantly raising a cloud of dust on the field.

Once the smoke and dust clear...

"Nani!?"

Ye Xing was taken aback by what he saw.

As the smoke and dust dissipated, a white figure appeared before him.

A fire knight clad in white armor stood beside the city.

[Phoenix Sword Saint Kia Fried: Attack Power 2800 → 1400]

[Jouchi Katsuya: LP1300→800]

Staring at the knight, Nightwalker frowned slightly, wondering, "Why did this monster come onto the field? Could it be...?"

In response to the question, Jonouchi explained, "If Red-Eyes Blackblade Dragon is destroyed, Special Summon as many monsters as possible that are equipped to this monster from the Graveyard."

"This is why [Phoenix Sword Saint Kia Fried] is here."

After hearing Jonouchi's explanation, Yagyou nodded in understanding.

He exclaimed, "I see. Mr. Jonouchi is truly tenacious. No wonder Lord Pegasus speaks so highly of duelists like you..."

"Hehe~, thanks for the compliment~."

Feeling a little embarrassed by the compliment, Jonouchi scratched his head.

However, the next sentence made his lips twitch.

"Although I'm still quite a bit behind Mr. Yugi Muto and Mr. Seto Kaiba."

"Uh......"

Jonouchi: It's true, but don't say it so directly...

Seeing the awkward expression on his opponent's face, Ye Xing smiled knowingly and continued, "Ahem, let's continue our duel. Due to the change in the number of cards, the attack power of [Evil God Annihilator] has decreased."

[Evil God Destroyer: Attack Power 2000 → 1500]

"Finally, cover one more card, and the turn ends."

[Pegasus Night Walk Cards: 1 → 0]

Chapter 191 Time Magic Hammer

Inside the lounge, the group gathered around the screen were in a state of chaos.

"We're doomed. This guy, Jonouchi, is in dire straits. Is this the end for him?"

"Don't talk such discouraging things, Honda! Jonouchi has never given up so easily."

Yugi nodded in agreement with Kyoko's words, "Indeed, Jonouchi-kun's fighting spirit has not disappeared."

Wang Yang, who was staring at the screen, picked up where he left off and said, "It is undeniable that the evil god's power is indeed strong, but as long as we can draw that card, Jonouchi will still have a chance to fight back."

"That's right."

......

Return your attention to the playing field.

Jonouchi stared intently at the deck, unable to draw the card at the top for a long time.

"What's wrong, Mr. Jonouchi? Are you giving up the match?"
