A duelist never gives up!

Following the attack of the System Destroyer, the last monster on Avis's field was reduced to ashes.

Avis lp: 8000→7900.

"Then, I will use the Kusha Nuwei Tribe's Unicorn, the Intimidating Minion-type Kusha Nuwei Tribe, and the Flower Baroness to directly attack you!!!"

"Bang!!!"

The huge impact made a deafening sound like fireworks exploding in the night sky, and at the same time brought the result of this short duel.

Avis lp: 7900→0.

Win: Nona!!!

Chapter 41: Shaddoll Fusion

“Hua—Hua—”

The breeze blew through the woods, making a series of noisy sounds. The sunlight shone onto Avis through the gaps between the leaves, making him feel warm.

"Am I going to die?" Avis asked Nona.

Nona looked at Avis in surprise: "I didn't expect you to wake up before you died...a last breath?"

"Maybe." Avis looked at his hands which were constantly dissipating. He felt that the duel power that made up his body was gradually dissipating. This feeling was very strange, as if he had been injected with anesthetics and then underwent a cutting operation. He could feel a part of his body being cut off by the knife, but he did not feel any pain at all.

"Angry?" Nona suddenly said, "If you hadn't participated in that experiment, you wouldn't be in this state now."

Avis didn't say anything. He simply looked up at the sky, which was covered by branches. After a long pause, he replied, "I regret it, but I'm not angry. This is my own fault. I've long been prepared to lose my life."

"Oh, really?" Nona glanced at Avis indifferently. "I thought that when you woke up, you would cry and scream like a clown because of the fear of death. How boring... Just wait for death here alone. I'm leaving first."

"Wait." Avis stopped Nona as she turned around and couldn't help asking, "Although I don't know Nero well, I know she's not the type of duelist to say such naughty things. Who are you?"

"I am..." Nona subconsciously wanted to reveal her identity as the God of Dark Duel, but when she thought that Nero was still listening to the conversation, she couldn't help but shut her mouth and reorganize her words.

"Just a lonely ghost wandering in this world."

Nona said, waving to Avis: "That's it, goodbye, oh, no... rest in peace."

"I have one more request."

Avis spoke again.

"I'm not a philanthropist." Although Nona said this, she still stopped.

"Take my deck." Avis untied the deck from his waist, lifted it up with the power of duel, and floated in front of Nona. "You can dismantle it, put it in your own deck, use it yourself, or give it to someone else... I don't want it to die here with me."

"Alright, since you're about to die, I'll reluctantly accept it." Nona said as she took the deck in front of her.

"Then... I have one more thing I want to ask of you."

"People should be content." Nona frowned, as if remembering something that made her unhappy. "If you are greedy, you will end up with nothing."

"I'm sorry, but I really hope you can help me with this matter." Avis said weakly, "I originally planned to have a final fight with Yuan Qi at this festival, but I didn't expect him to fall here... I think there's probably no one in this world who can stop him, so... I hope you can help me convey a message to him..."

“…Don’t hate humans.”

ha?

What is this guy talking about?

Does Yuan Qi hate humans?

How is that possible? If that guy hated humans, he wouldn't do such boring things.

"I'm telling you..." Nona turned around unhappily and tried to correct Avis's mistake, but she found that the figure floating in the air had already disappeared, leaving only a golden card falling from the sky.

"Clap."

The golden card symbolizing the competition spot fell onto the soft ground and turned into a green card.

"Magic Card - Brand Fusion, what a useless loot." Nona picked up the card gently, and then walked towards a direction that exuded a powerful duel force. There was the guy she wanted to meet.

……

"I'm placing the Merlot Mermaid and the Siren Mermaid from the Pearl Tear Lament tribe on the Link Markers!" Hara Nana stretched out his hand and shouted, "The summoning conditions are two monsters, including a Level 2, Level 2, Link 2 monster!"

"Link Summon! Satellite Shining·Naughty Elf!!!"

As Yuan Qi shouted, the naughty elf in a white coat appeared in front of Yuan Qi from the connecting circuit, carrying her cannon.

"Damn it... This tomb not only brings no benefits, but also causes the loss of a site... Is it true that we can only summon naughty elves?" Ai said unwillingly.

"There's nothing we can do. This is the risk you have to take when using Ancient Vanguard." Yuan Qi looked at his hand and said softly, "I can only pin my hopes on this card."

With that, Hara Nana inserted a card into the Duel Board and said, "I'm covering a card, and this is how the turn ends."

"A monster, a face-up card, and two cards in hand..." Nafeli couldn't help but shake his head as he looked at the situation in front of Yuan Qi, spreading his hands and saying, "You don't think this ending can stop me, do you?"

"How do you know if you don't try?" Yuan Qi chuckled.

"...I've been underestimated." Nafeli's lips curled slightly, and he placed two fingers on the deck, his eyes flashing as he said, "My turn, draw a card!"

"brush!"

With a sharp sound of breaking through the air, Nefeli's hand of cards increased from five to six. He then raised a card high and said, "I enter the preparation phase, I enter the main phase! I activate the magic card - Shaddoll Fusion!"

"chain!"

Hara Nana stretched out his hand and commanded the monsters on his field, saying, "I activate the effect of Satellite Shining: Mischievous! I target the Pearl Tear Song-Tribe: Merlot Mermaid in my Graveyard and Special Summon Merlot Mermaid!"

"chain!"

Nefeli once again displayed the monster in his hand and said, "I activate the effect of Mag Dragon, Beast of the Abyss, in my hand, banishing the Merlot Mermaid from your Graveyard and Special Summoning this card!"

"This is what you've been waiting for!"

Yuan Qi chuckled, sent a card in his hand to the graveyard, and said, "I activate the effect of the multiplied G in my hand!"

Activate by sending this card from your hand to the Graveyard. This turn, the following effects apply.

●Every time your opponent successfully Special Summons a monster, you draw 1 card from your deck!

"So that's how it is. Is this the source of your confidence?" Nafeli frowned, but soon relaxed his eyebrows.

If the chain is successful, the original seven must draw at least two cards, plus one card in the next round's card drawing phase, which makes three cards.

For a duelist like Hara Nana, one card is enough to bring him back to life, let alone three cards?

So... we must not let him survive this round!

"chain!"

Nafeli quickly inserted a card into the Duel Plate and said, "I activate the Quick Attack Magic Card - Emergency Teleport!"

"Special Summon 1 Level 3 or lower Psychic-Type monster from your hand or deck. Banish the monster Special Summoned by this effect during this turn's End Phase!"

"Come out! Shadow Wings Venti!!!"

Chapter 42: Good Luck

"Shadow Wing Venti?!"

Ai looked at the girl who suddenly appeared on the Nafeli field and couldn't help but be surprised.

The girl has long hair as bright as a rainbow and eyes as green as emerald green. She looks as beautiful and elegant as a princess from a fairy tale book.

However, what puzzled Ai was not the girl's beauty - after all, no one was as beautiful as her.

What puzzled Ai was the purpose of Nefeli summoning her.

"Is it for fusion? Or is it to gather stars? No, he didn't make any adjustments on the field..."

"It's to kill," Yuan Qi said solemnly. "Think about it carefully. If he has a Contact with God's Body card and a Light monster in his hand..."

"We were defeated directly?!" Ai was also shocked and his expression became solemn.

"Something went wrong with the decision," Yuan Qi said gravely. "Perhaps we should have adopted a more conservative approach from the start... For example, not activating the Ancient Vanguard effect..."

"It's no use regretting now. What's important is the next step!" Ai said angrily to Yuan Qi.

"Ah, I know." Yuan Qi nodded and said to Nafeli, "Let's start dealing with the chain."

"First, the proliferation of G is activated successfully, and then I special summon Mag Dragon." Nafeli said, slapping the Mag Dragon in his hand on the field.

"Boom!"

The huge Mag Dragon descended from the sky, as if announcing its appearance to everyone, and smashed a huge pit on the soft ground!

"Then, I'll draw a card from the deck!" Yuan Qi said, and quickly drew a card from the deck.

"Tsk, this isn't the one." Ai looked at the card Yuan Qi drew and couldn't help but said anxiously.

If you can't draw a monster that can jump out and block the attack in this situation, the duel is over!

"Then I'll deal with the effects of Shaddoll Fusion!" Nefeli shouted, extending his hand. "I'll send Fairy Legend Princess Snow White and Shaddoll Lizard to the graveyard from my deck!"

"Fusion Summon! Divine Shadow I Nephilim!!!"

As Nephilim finished his words, a huge divine figure, I-Nephilim, descended from the sky like a god, emitting a mysterious and powerful aura.

"Then... based on the effect of Proliferated G, I'll draw a card from my deck!" Yuan Qi placed his hand on the Duel Disk and took a deep breath. "Life or death depends on this draw!"

"Don't worry." Ai placed her hand on Yuan Qi's and said, "Trust the deck. The deck will respond to us!"

"Oh, answer me! The song of tears!"

"brush!!!"

The sharp sound cut through the heavy air like a sharp blade, scattering the light of hope from the sky!

"coming!"

Yuan Qi's eyes lit up as he looked at the cards he drew.

"Did I draw a good card?" Nephilim chuckled, then quickly said, "Well, then, I activate the effect of Mag Dragon, Beast of the Abyss on the field. This can only be activated if this card is successfully Special Summoned. During this turn's End Phase, select 1 Dragon-Type monster from your Deck or Graveyard, except "Mag Dragon, Beast of the Abyss", and add it to your hand. Then, activate the effect of God Shaddoll Nephilim. This can only be activated if this card is successfully Special Summoned. Send 1 "Shaddoll" card from your Deck to the Graveyard, then I chain-activate the effect of Shaddoll Lizard in the Graveyard. This can only be activated if this card is sent to the Graveyard by the effect. Send 1 "Shaddoll" card from your Deck, except "Shaddoll Lizard", to the Graveyard! C1c2c3!"

"Trying to avoid the Little Mermaid by chaining your cards?" Yuan Qi said, showing the card he had just drawn. "But unfortunately, it wasn't the Little Mermaid I drew, but... a Pearl Tears Lamentation-type Kushagura!"

"Tsk, he actually seized the opportunity to survive at the last moment?!" Nafeli clicked his tongue.

"I chain-activate the effects of the Pearl Tears Lamentation tribe, the Kusha Rage tribe!"

Hara Nana shouted, "You can only activate this during your or your opponent's Main Phase. Special Summon this card from your hand, and banish 1 "Kushasha Wrath" or "Pearl Tear Lament" card from your hand or Graveyard!"

"I Special Summon the Pearl Tears Lamentation Clan-type Kusha Rage!"

A member of the Kusha Angry Clan, whose body was red as if boiled in water, appeared in front of Yuan Qi, wielding a gray giant axe, exuding the smell of steel and blood.

"Then I will send Contact with the God's Avatar and Shaddoll's Core from the deck to the graveyard!" Nefeli shouted.

"Seeing that I specially recruited the Pearl Tears Sorrow Song tribe, the Kusha Nuwei tribe still chose to take the Divine False... Teacher, do you really want to kill them?" Yuan Qi said helplessly.

"Of course, this opportunity is fleeting." Nefeli raised his chin and said, "If your Pearly Tear Lament-type Kusha Nuwei tribe can't be stacked to fusion, victory in this duel will belong to me!"

Yuan Qi glanced at Nafeli's graveyard. What the other party said was right. With Bai Xue in the graveyard, it would be useless even if he had two Kushaguptas of the Pearl Tears and Lamentation type on the field.

"But, luck is something like that. When it's bad, misfortunes come one after another, but when it's good... you'll have a continuous stream of good luck." Yuan Qi said with a slight smile on his face.

"Then prove it to me." Nefeli held out his hand and said, "I'll activate the effect of the Shaddoll's core in the graveyard!"

"If this card is sent to the Graveyard by a card effect, you can activate this effect by targeting 1 "Shadowdill" Spell/Trap Card in your Graveyard, other than "Shadowdill's Core". Add that card to your hand!"

"I choose to add the Contact with the God's False Body from the Graveyard to my hand!"

"Then I will activate the effect of the Pearl Tears Lamentation Clan-type Kusha Wrath Clan!"

Hara Nana held out his hand and said, "This card can only be activated if it is successfully Normal Summoned or Special Summoned. Send three cards from the top of your or your opponent's deck to the Graveyard!"

"I send three cards from the top of my deck to the Graveyard!"

Yuan Qi said, flipping over the top three cards of his deck and saying, "The three cards sent to the graveyard are Merlo Mermaid, Demon King of the Swamp, and Talent of Three Wars!"

"Great! It's time to strike back!" Ai shouted, "Seven! Perform a Fusion Summon!"

"Isn't that natural?" Yuan Qi quickly drew a card from the Extra Deck and held it up. "I'm returning the Merlo Mermaid, Siren Mermaid, and Demon King from the Graveyard to the bottom of the deck!"

"Fusion Summon! Come out! Kaledohart of the Pearl Tear Lament Tribe!!!"

"Wow!!!"

A huge stream of water seemed to be pouring down from the sky like a rainstorm. Kaladohat, a member of the Pearl Tears Elegy Clan, who had octopus tentacles all over his body, stood in the rainstorm like a devil with a long whip in his hand, and a hideous smile appeared on his handsome face.

"I activate the effect of Tearful Lament Tribe, Caledoheart!" Hara Nana shouted. "If this card is Special Summoned successfully, or if a Water-Type monster is sent to your Graveyard by a card effect while this card is on the field, I can activate this effect by targeting 1 card your opponent controls. Return that card to its owner's Deck!"
