Welcome to the Duel Academy where Yu-Gi-Oh appears

"Reverse Summon [Full Form Giant Insect] and enter the battle phase."

"Open the face card [Ghost Trick Decoration], and activate it by targeting 1 [Ghost Trick] Field Spell Card on your field. Return that card to its owner's hand. After that, you can activate 1 Field Spell Card from your hand or deck."

As a deck with three of the four magic cards in the home field, [Ghost Trick] is quite unique.

"Change of venue, [Ghost Parade]."

"Out of nowhere, a giant insect attacks directly!"

Shiho Manabe didn't care and didn't change her operation because of the change of venue.

"By the effect of [Ghost Parade], when your opponent's monster declares a direct attack, you can add 1 card with [Ghost Parade] in its name from your deck to your hand, and I search for [Ghost Parade Siren]."

"Then activate the effect of [Ghostly Jack-O'-Lantern] in your hand. You can only activate this effect when your opponent's monster declares a direct attack, or when a [Ghostly Jack-O'-Lantern] monster you control is selected as an attack target. Negate that attack, and Special Summon this card from your hand in face-down Defense Position."

The pumpkin lantern that Karuizawa Kei had retrieved earlier finally came in handy and blocked this round of attacks for her.

"How annoying! My turn is over."

Manabe Shiho clicked her tongue, feeling very unhappy.

Manabe Shiho: Hand Card 1, Magic Trap 0, Monster 1

Although the little guys in the [Ghost Plan] deck are not strong, they are very persistent. Their combined strength gives them the possibility of defeating any enemy.

"My turn, draw a card."

"It's time to revel, rejoice in the feast!"

"I'll use the face-down [Ghost Plankton] as material to Link Summon [Ghost Plank Festival]."

The moon seemed to have turned into a smiling cartoon face, and all kinds of "monsters" from [Ghost Plan] gathered together in this festive atmosphere.

When You Feng saw this scene, he couldn't help but hum a song.

"Late at night, under a full moon, monsters are on the rampage. Beware of their roars. We want freedom? Cleanse the world of its filth, divine revenge. Follow my command and march with us to conquer the Earth."

"Be serious!"

Karuizawa Hui couldn't help but blush, and turned around and yelled at You Feng.

You Feng shrugged and finally resisted the urge to give her another rendition of "I Didn't Take My Medicine Today".

A deck with a main L1 has the possibility of activating any main card, but unfortunately, the main L1 of [Ghost Plan] is actually quite simple.

Although the face-down [Ghost Plan] monster can also serve as a link material and can slightly reduce the [Ghost Plan]'s Home Self-Respect, after the monster is linked to [Ghost Plan Festival], [Ghost Plan] basically cannot move anymore.

In the second round, the monsters that were originally covered can often be turned over, and there is no need for [Ghost Strategy] to turn them around.

"I activate [Confrontation G], and when my opponent Special Summons a monster from their Extra Deck, you can activate this card and Special Summon this card from your hand to the field. This card Special Summoned by this effect is unaffected by the effects of monsters that target this card."

[Confrontation G (5*) Land] [Insect Type/Effect ATK: 1100 DEF: 2500]

"Normal Summon [Ghost Trick Siren]. Activate this effect when this card is Normal Summoned or Flipped. Send the top two cards of your deck to the Graveyard. If there is a [Ghost Trick] card among them, I can add 2 [Ghost Trick] Spell/Trap Card from my deck to my hand."

The two cards that Karuizawa Megumi put down were [Ghostly Trick: The World Spins Around] and [Ghostly Trick: Cat Girl].

"I add [Ghostly Heartbreak] to my hand, then activate Siren's effect to turn her face-down."

"Cover a card and the turn ends."

Karuizawa Megumi: Hand 2, Magic Trap 1, Monster 2 Field: [Ghost Parade]

Seeing this, Shiho Manabe showed a sinister smile on her face.

"My turn, draw a card."

"Change [Opposing G] to Attack Position, then enter the Battle Phase. Activate the effect of [Full Insect]. If there is a face-up card in the Field Zone, you can activate this effect once during your or your opponent's Battle Phase. Destroy all monsters your opponent controls."

The terrifying flying insect flapped its wings, sprinkling sinister phosphorus powder, dissolving the two monsters on Karuizawa's field.

"Then I activate [Ghostly Heartbreak]. When a [Ghostly] monster you control is destroyed by battle or an opponent's card effect and sent to the Graveyard, select two [Ghostly] monsters in your Graveyard with different names than the destroyed monster and Special Summon them face-down in Defense Position. I Special Summon [Ghostly Mummy] and [Ghostly Zombie]."

"It doesn't matter, the big insects will just attack!"

The field effect of [Ghost Parade]: As long as this card exists on the field, monsters on both sides of the field cannot attack monsters in face-down Defense Position. If the monsters on the opponent's field only have monsters in face-down Defense Position, they can directly attack the opponent's player.

Compared to [Ghost Trick House], it is a high-risk, high-reward card.

"When my opponent's monster declares a direct attack, I add 1 [Ghost Trick Ghoul] from my deck to my hand."

Karuizawa Megumi:lp6550→lp3550

"Activate the effect of [Ghost Trickster·Mari]. When you take damage from battle or a card effect, discard this card from your hand to Special Summon 1 [Ghost Trickster] monster from your deck in face-down Defense Position."

"I Special Summon [Ghostly Werewolf] face-down."

"Boring, confront G and attack directly!"

Karuizawa Megumi: lp3550→2450

"I'm adding [Ghostly Frost Essence] to my hand."

The search effect of [Ghost Parade] does not occur once per round, but as long as it exists on the field, all damage received by the opponent's player will be reduced to 0, so it is high risk and high reward.

But since Karuizawa still has a [Ghostly House] in his hand that he had previously returned, he can replace this venue at any time.

If you use the stage rotation to block [Ghost Parade] on the opponent, and some cute kid can't resist their curiosity and activates it, then the fun will get really intense.

"Some are still alive, and some are dead."

You Feng shook his head and started to open the champagne for Karuizawa. If Manabe Shiho's card was useless, then she would be killed instantly by Karuizawa Megumi's [Ghost Trick] in the next round.

"Cover a card and the turn ends."

Manabe Shiho: Hand Card 0, Magic Trap 1, Monster 2

Chapter 76: "Soul Burner"

"During my turn, I draw a card. Activate [Cosmic Cyclone] and pay 1000lp to banish your face-down card."

When he saw the card he drew, Karuizawa's eyes lit up.

Although the compatibility between the [Ghost Trick] deck that requires blood and the [Cosmic Cyclone] is not very high, after joining You Feng's club, Karuizawa Megumi also learned some strange knowledge.

For example, some cards will have an effect after being destroyed. Although this cannot affect [Provoke the Snake], it can prevent things like [Unparalleled Fist of Heavenly Might].

Karuizawa Megumi:lp2450→lp1450

"Open the face-up card [Encourage], and activate it by targeting 1 face-up monster you control. That monster gains 700 ATK until the end of this turn."

"I increase the attack power of [Confrontation G]."

[Confrontation G (5*) Land] [Insect Type/Effect ATK: 1100→1800 DEF: 2500]

"I Flip Summon [Ghostly Mummy], [Ghostly Werewolf], and [Ghostly Zombie], activate the effect of [Ghostly Zombie], and add [Ghostly Skeleton] to my hand."

Although You Feng thinks that Karuizawa will most likely not use this card's effect, it's worth mentioning the ability of [Ghost Skull] when it's flipped: "Ban from the top of your opponent's deck face-down, removing cards up to the number of monsters with [Ghost Skull] in their names on your side of the field."

There's a deck where the main character is a Xyz monster, can banish the opponent's cards face-down, has wolves, has a field, and the Xyz monster can replenish its own materials. That's it—

Of course, although [Ghost Skull] was once the strongest deck destruction card, it seems too harmless when compared with certain things.

"Activate the mummy effect to Normal Summon [Ghostly Skeleton]."

Normally summon [Ghost Trick Ghoul], then activate Ghoul's effect, and select 1 face-up [Ghost Trick] monster on your field.

"Until your opponent's next End Phase, the selected monster's ATK becomes the total of the original ATK of all face-up [Ghost Trick] monsters on the field."

“Masaka…”

Manabe Shiho widened her eyes in shock.

"Yes, I may be very weak compared to you."

"But no matter how weak or ugly you are, as long as you have the desire to move forward, you will always find a bright path forward."

"I'm not afraid anymore, because when facing an unbeatable enemy, you're no different from who I was before."

"I activate the [Ghost Plan House]."

【Ghost Mummy】:ATK1500

【Ghost Zombie】:ATK400

【Ghost Werewolf】:ATK1400

【Ghost Skull】:ATK1200

[Ghost Trick Ghoul (3*) Dark] [Undead/Effect ATK: 1100 → 5600 DEF: 1200]

Despite being weak, the Ghoul has gathered the power of a Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon, reaching numbers far beyond what ordinary monsters can achieve.

The scary-looking hot girl Shiho Manabe is actually just like a cockroach, forming a mob to oppress others.

A tiny bit of malice can accumulate into persecution that can destroy a person, just like a grain of sand can eventually become a tower.

Karuizawa Megumi didn't understand why she was bullied. Maybe it was because she was pretty, or because she was the center of the class conversation, or because she had done many wrong things unintentionally...

But it was meaningless to dwell on the reasons for the persecution. She finally understood that the only way for her to escape from the endless vortex was to show that she was not easy to bully from the beginning, or to make new friends to protect herself, or to become stronger.

At least, we cannot give up resistance and do nothing.

In the face of Shiho Manabe's ugly expression, the ghoul, which was neither cute nor scary, swung its claws and broke through the [Confrontation G].

Manabe Shiho:lp3150→lp0

Karuizawa Megumi put away the Duel Disk and reached out to the limp Manabe Shiho. The hot girl from Class C stared blankly at Karuizawa Megumi, who was looking at her intently. In the end, she didn't slap Karuizawa Megumi's hand away, but let her pull her up.

"I'm sorry, I was wrong in the beginning."

Karuizawa Megumi said sincerely that her conflict with Manabe Shiho started because she accidentally bullied a girl from Class C. Then, Manabe Shiho stood up for her classmate.

"sorry."

Manabe Shiho bowed and walked away with her head lowered.

Regardless of the original reason, it does not change the fact that she wanted to bully Karuizawa Megumi.

Besides, even if we exclude the incident with Karuizawa Megumi, hasn't she bullied other people?

"So handsome."

You Feng sighed to Karuizawa Kei, but received a nice glare from him.

"Mr. President, are you very popular?"

You Feng opened his mouth and smiled awkwardly.

"I will work hard to become excellent, my hero."

After saying this, the girl's pretty face turned red and then she ran away.

You Feng rested his fingers on his chin, lost in thought.

"I'm sorry, I didn't realize what was going on here, and I was going to help if I saw a chance."

"I didn't expect that classmate was stronger than me."

At this moment, a polite voice came over. A man with green-framed glasses and gray-red hair greeted You Feng.

The man's name is Takashi Homura, one of the victims of the Lost incident.

You Feng remembered that [Soulburner] Takashi Homura was often beaten and electrocuted by the AI using the Undead deck during his imprisonment, which made him very afraid of ghosts and other things, leaving a deep psychological trauma from [Despair Out of Darkness].

After being rescued, he often refused to go to school, but his situation was actually better than that of other victims.

In fact, You Feng was not completely unaware that there was someone else watching, but because that person looked very scared, You Feng thought he was just a supporting role or something.

Now it seems that this child was frightened by the [Ghost Trick]...

You Feng was not unable to understand Homura Tsuyoshi's current situation. He had not yet encountered the fire-attributed Ignis [Unrequited Dream] and was obviously still unable to get out of the shadow of the past.

"Seeing the students in the next class step out of the shadows, can you empathize with them?"

You Feng asked tentatively.

"what do you know?"

The atmosphere around the originally gentle and refined Takashi Homura suddenly became dangerous, as if he was a wild beast ready to pounce.

But in You Feng's opinion, the current Takashi Suomura is just a [Salamandra Spikytail Lizard], far from being a [Salamandra Blazing Lion], let alone a [Salamandra Fiery Phoenix].

"I have some clues about the Lost incident and plan to investigate it. After returning to school, I may ask the executive principal relevant questions. If you are interested, you can join me."

You Feng thought about it and spoke straight to the point.
