Let's play cards! In a different world of swords and magic

"It looks like a robe over a school uniform."

"Ah, school uniform jacket and robe?"

Aisha seemed to have some clues.

"And he was wearing a very strange hat."

"(￣ー￣) Weird hat?"

Damn, this impression is getting closer and closer.

"The long grey hair is particularly eye-catching."

"That's enough, I know who it is."

He rushed to the school gate as soon as possible, and sure enough, the strange woman who was entangled with Arnold was Irena.

Irena, the narcissistic gray witch, wears a witch robe, a witch hat, and has long gray hair.

Even though they haven't seen each other for a long time, in Aisha's impression, Irena should not be as fierce and scary as Licia said.

However, Irena, who caught Arnold at this time, looked unprecedentedly angry.

"Tell me, how should you compensate me? I spent a lot of effort to get this back!"

Arnold also argued and retorted: "It's just a toy, is it as exaggerated as you say? You city people, are you trying to blackmail me? I won't be fooled."

After hearing what Arnold said, Irena became even angrier.

"Toys? You actually said that the thing I spent a whole vacation to get is a toy! I'm so pissed off. I'm going to skin you today!"

"Then come on, don't think I'm afraid of you, weird woman!"

Duel——!

A disagreement suddenly led to a duel. Before Aisha, who had just arrived, could even speak to stop them, Irena and Arnold started fighting at the entrance of the academy.

"Senior Irena, when did you return to the academy?"

Professor Field said that Irena seemed to have taken a few days off and delayed her report to school, so Aisha hadn't seen her in the library in the past few days.

However, compared to when Irena would return to the academy and the duel between Irena and Arnold, the thing on the ground attracted You Ling's attention more.

Although it was broken into pieces, one could still barely make out from the fragments the same distinctive eye decoration as the thousand-year-old artifact.

However, the fragment itself is not pure gold like the thousand-year-old artifact, but a transparent material more like crystal.

Chapter 263: Trial of Light 5K

Under the blue sky, why would the girl with flying gray hair and beauty that could captivate all men so angry?

Is it because he hasn't appeared in a long time?

No, it’s because the youngest and cutest witch has to teach an ignorant little kid a lesson today.

Beat him until he doubts his life and repents completely!

"It's my turn, draw a card!" Irena, who had the first move, threw out a magic card, "Magic Card [Cost Reduction]!"

[Cost Reduction Magic Card Effect: You can activate this by discarding 1 card from your hand. During this turn, the level of the monster in your hand will be reduced by 2 points.]

"I discard a card from my hand, and then lower the level of the [Dark Magician Girl] in my hand from 6 stars to 4 stars, and Normal Summon it in attack form!"

After lowering the star level, the 6-star Black Magician Girl was stuck at the 4-star summoning threshold without sacrifice.

After the materialization light shone, the black magician girl, holding the wide magic hat on her head with one hand, appeared playfully with her pink tongue sticking out.

[Dark Magician Girl ATK: 2000]

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

"My turn, draw a card!"

Arnold attacked from behind and drew a card.

"Strange woman, it's just a 6-star monster, don't underestimate me! Go ahead, Special Summon the Dark Knight Gaia King in attack mode!"

[Dark Knight Gaia King ★★★★★★★ (7*) Dark] [Warrior/Effect ATK: 2300 DEF: 2100]

[If your opponent has a monster on the field, and you have no monster on the field, you can Special Summon this card from your hand.]

With the help of King Gaia's own effect, Arnold directly special summoned a 7-star high-level monster card and threw it on the field.

On top of the flying dragon, King Gaia, wearing jet-black armor, raised his two guns high, pointing the tips of the guns at the black magician girl on Irena's field.

[Dark Magician Girl ATK: 2000]

"Defeat the monster on the opposing field, Gaia!"

King Gaia rode a dragon through the air, gathering the impact force of speed, and pierced the chest of the black magician girl with his spear from the sky.

"——『Dark Spiral Shooting』"

A shot that distorted space, and the powerful wave seemed to distort the sexy body of the Black Magician Girl as well.

Irena waved her hands angrily and uncovered the cards covering the backcourt.

"If you want to crush me, I can use this card! Trap Card Activate [Magic Cylinder]!"

There are two magic cylinders, one on each side, floating next to the Black Magician Girl. One absorbs the impact of the spiral gunshot, and the other reflects the absorbed impact.

The Dark Knight Gaia King with an attack power of 2300 points will directly convert the attack value into damage to Arnold's health in front of the magic cylinder.

Arnold LP: 4000

"Damn it, they actually buried such a despicable trap card. Reflect 2300 points of damage!"

Arnold gritted his teeth. Although he was very sad to have lost more than half of his health in one shot from the magic cylinder, fortunately, his remaining health was still healthy. He would not be shattered in an instant as Irena boasted.

Then the next second, what Arnold saw was enough to make him start to doubt his life.

The magic tube that was supposed to just reflect the damage from King Gaia's attack actually split into several pieces like a magic trick.

"Bakana, how could this happen?!"

Arnold took several steps back in fear. Facing the magic tubes in the sky that were increasing in number like Gatling gun barrels, Arnold, who already suspected that he was dreaming, rubbed his eyes hard.

It would have been fine if I hadn't rubbed it. After I rubbed it and opened my eyes, the terrifying formation composed of countless magic cylinders in the sky had begun to accumulate power.

"This strange woman should only have covered one [Magic Cylinder]. This doesn't make sense!"

After repeatedly checking Irena's covered cards in the backcourt, Arnold was sure that Irena only covered one card in her first attack turn.

"Besides, even if there are two magic cylinders, I've never heard of a magic cylinder being able to fire continuously!"

"Well, now you've heard it!"

Irena raised her fair arms inside the wide witch robe and pointed to the magic cylinder formation in the sky with her palm.

"The effect of the Trap Card [Loaded Cylinder] in the Graveyard!"

In just the first round, Irena was able to hide a trap card in the graveyard, which could only be the card sent in through the [Low Price Reduction] effect.

[Loaded Cylinder Trap Card Effect: When you activate "Magic Cylinder", you can activate this card in the Graveyard by banishing it. The damage inflicted by that effect is doubled.]

"I banish the [Loaded Cylinder] in the graveyard, and double the damage of this [Magic Cylinder]! Take it, you arrogant brat!"

2300 2 × = 4600

The pile of loaded [Magic Cylinders] in the sky, with double rebound damage, violently bombarded Arnold and instantly cleared all of his health.

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah!"

Arnold LP: 4000 → 0

The trap killed Arnold instantly, and his body was enveloped by several magical lights. After the smoke and dust from the explosion dissipated, he fell to the ground, pointing one hand forward, as if he was unwilling to stop in a death posture.

"Are you still so arrogant, little brat? If I say I'll skin you alive today, you won't be able to escape!"

However, even though she killed Arnold instantly, Irena's anger was still hard to calm down when she thought about the fact that the things she had worked so hard to get back were broken.

"You got beaten so badly, Arnold." Anyone with a discerning eye could see the gap between Arnold and Irena. Licia was glad that she brought Aisha with her.

"Senior Aisha, please save Arnold first. If this continues, he might be eaten by this woman."

"Okay, I'll try to persuade you, but it may not work."

Even Aisha had never seen Irena so angry, so she felt very unsure.

But after all, Arnold was his 'little brother' who had sworn to follow him, and he was also his roommate's childhood sweetheart. If he didn't step in to mediate when he encountered trouble, it would seem very unkind.

"I-Irena-senpai?"

"Is this voice Aisha?"

Just like the face-changing in Sichuan Opera, after hearing Aisha's voice, Irena immediately turned around and her anger turned into laughter.

"Long time no see, Aixia classmate, how was your vacation?"

"I'm doing pretty well, but..."

Although Irena had a bright smile on her face, she did not stop throwing elemental magic at Arnold.

Fire, ice and lightning intertwined. Although the power of each magic was not very great, after being baptized in turn, Arnold was tortured to the point that his whole body was convulsing and he could hardly get up.

"Senior Irena, how did Arnold make you angry?"

In order to persuade Irena from this state, Aisha must also find out why Irena is so angry.

"Arnold? So you, Aisha, also know this arrogant brat?"

It's easier to get things done if you have connections, and also for Aisha's sake, Irena stopped casting the elemental magic at Arnold.

"Aixia...Senior..."

The weak Arnold looked up with all his strength. His respected senior would save him at such a difficult moment and from such a violent woman. What could be more reliable than this?

"Senior, I will follow you for the rest of my life..."

"She called you, Aisha, senior?" Irena suddenly realized, "Oh, right, after the new semester, you will also be a sophomore, Aisha, and you will have a junior. Wait, is this kid a freshman who just enrolled in the first grade?"

Although he was killed by his own bullet after only one round, the fact that he was able to directly summon King Gaia to break through the battle was actually performed by a first-year freshman, which really surprised Irena.

"The level of first-year students is so high now. However, even if they are first-year students, it is unforgivable to do such a thing!"

Licia spoke timidly, apologizing: "I'm sorry, senior. Arnold didn't mean to break your things, and we don't have any money. If you want compensation, can you try another way?"

"It's mainly because of that brat's attitude. It's so annoying."

At least as her childhood sweetheart, Licia's attitude was pretty good and Irena was more accepting of her.

"Besides, I have never asked you to pay compensation. This thing cannot be measured by money."

"Irena, you mean the pile of debris on the ground?"

You Ling, who was inside the little princess' body, half-squatted and observed the crystal fragments on the ground.

The pieces of light reflecting off each other did not seem to be shattered, but rather the crystals that had been pieced together disintegrated after the collision and returned to their original parts.

"You should call me senior." Seeing that another strange kid called her by her name, Irena frowned again, "Really? Why are all the freshmen nowadays so impolite?"

As a result, when she looked at You Ling who was half-squatting on the ground, Irena immediately noticed the thousand-year-old building blocks on the little princess' chest.

"Wait, you're not, You Ling?"

"Long time no see, Irena, senior~"

You Ling used the innocent and cute face of a little princess to put on a fairly acceptable smile.

"Hashidou Madai, Yu Ling, have you become a loli? Although as long as she looks good, gender doesn't matter to me. But, I always feel something is wrong. Could this be your new body? Are you finally making a move on the little girl?"

"It's not as bad as you say. It's just normal..." You Ling lowered his voice to avoid being heard by Lixia, "It's a normal substitute."

"Oh, that's okay."

As a magician, Irena accepted it very quickly. It was the same when she first transformed her soul, and her level of understanding and acceptance was unmatched by ordinary people.

You Ling pointed at the crystal fragments on the ground and analyzed: "Although this thing looks to be falling apart, it doesn't seem to be damaged. If we put it back together, won't it be restored to its original state?"

"It's not that easy." Irena sighed and said, "You Ling, do you know what this is?"

"Puzzle toys?"

"It's not a toy! Why do you all say it's a toy? It makes my hard work throughout the holiday seem so cheap!"

"So, Irena, you've been working on this for the entire holiday?"
