The Eleven Beasts' effects were comprehensive, but the cards with destruction effects had all been banished by King Hassan's Trap Card in the first duel. As a result, Tiamat's remaining Beasts could react to Trap and Spell Cards, but none of them had an effect that could destroy a monster.
Therefore, all subsequent attacks could be single-handedly blocked by the battle-immune Hundred Faces.
"Hundred Faces, the next time another Heroic Spirit asks about your battle record, you can tell them you single-handedly blocked Tiamat and all Eleven Beasts."
A feat of that magnitude would earn her respect even from a Grand Servant!
"Master... I don't think I could ever say something like that."
By now, Hundred Faces was well aware of her true strength—she was among the weakest of all Heroic Spirits in terms of combat ability. Just because she could block attacks under the rules of a duel didn't mean she could replicate such a feat in reality. Even within the duel, the damage from the attacks was real. She could already foresee the miserable state she'd be in soon.
Although her card effect granted her battle immunity, it didn't change the number of attacks. Tiamat's light beam still slammed into Hundred Faces, and she felt as if her very soul had been blasted out of her body.
"Excellent! Four more attacks to go!" Jiang You exclaimed excitedly, watching Hundred Faces perform this miracle.
Of course, Tiamat wouldn't continue with futile attacks. There was no point.
"In that case, I end my turn! By my own effect, I banish all other Servants on the field and recover 1000 LP for each Servant banished."
As Tiamat's song echoed, the four Magical Beasts and Hundred Faces were all returned to the Primordial Sea, becoming part of Tiamat once more.
Tiamat's LP: 4000 → 9000.
"Even if you blocked my attacks, you won't be able to Special Summon any Servants on your next turn. This battle is Mother's victory."
The gap in their Life Points had now widened to a staggering six-to-one ratio. Tiamat couldn't imagine how Jiang You could possibly turn this around.
"It's not over until the very end. My turn—"
Jiang You activated his Fate's Draw. As expected, at this critical moment, the card The Arrival Beyond Dimensions appeared among his choices. It was truly a card reserved for decisive battles, just like a certain other one. "I draw!"
Jiang You decisively unleashed the forbidden power! "I activate The Arrival Beyond Dimensions! No effects can be chained to this card's activation. When activated, Special Summon as many banished Servants as possible from the Graveyard and Banished Zone, ignoring their summoning conditions! This summon is treated as a Proper Summoning!"
"So this is your own power... Truly astonishing."
Tiamat sensed a force transcending all existence from that card—something beyond the reach of even a Great God, a power capable of warping this world and even the entire universe. Yet Jiang You himself seemed oblivious to its true nature. Tiamat now had a rough idea of why the Old Man of the Mountain had tried to stop her.
"Trying to summon the Old Man of the Mountain this way is also forbidden! Until the start of my next turn, no Servants other than Beast Rank can be Special Summoned! This effect doesn't target the card—it targets you!"
"That may be so, but I'm not summoning the Old Man of the Mountain!"
Jiang You slammed the card onto his Backrow, stars swirling across its surface. "This card doesn't specify whose Graveyard and Banished Zone! I'm summoning Tiamat, Tiamat (Self-Sealed)...
...and the banished Eleven Beasts!"
"What?!"
Before Tiamat's disbelieving eyes, her two previous forms, along with her four children, appeared on Jiang You's field.
Tiamat Attack Power: 4000 → 0
Tiamat (Self-Sealed) Attack Power: 0
Basmu the Venom Dragon Attack Power: 3000 → 0
Girtablilu the Scorpion Man Attack Power: 3000 → 0
Ugallu the Storm Lion Attack Power: 3000 → 0
Tiamat (Primordial Spirit Origin) Attack Power: 8000 → 0
"Now, it's time to end this Duel! Enter the Battle Phase!"
Though both fields were currently lined with monsters at 0 Attack, that was about to change.
"Basmu the Venom Dragon, attack Tiamat (Primordial Spirit Origin)!"
Thanks to Basmu's effect that prevented it from being destroyed by battle, it remained on the field after sending Tiamat (Primordial Spirit Origin) to the Graveyard. And just like that, Tiamat was gone.
"And since there are no more 'Tiamat' cards in your Graveyard or Banished Zone, her effect to Special Summon herself when she leaves the field can't activate!"
Jiang You watched as the Servants on his field regained their original Attack Power. Tiamat's Attack even soared to 6000 due to the effect of Primordial Sea. With a total of 12,000 damage on the board, there was no way Tiamat could survive.
Back in her Main Battle Zone, Tiamat pouted (?~?). "Using Mommy to defeat Mommy... isn't that cheating?"
"This is me giving it my all!"
NTR was an indispensable part of the Yu-Gi-Oh! experience, but Jiang You found a response that would satisfy Tiamat more. "Besides, didn't you say it yourself, Mommy? 'You can rely on your Mother more'?"
"I did say that..."
Tiamat's expression quickly softened. Jiang You even received a small reward of cards. "Obedient children deserve praise. Now, go claim your victory!"
"Before that, Mommy, could you grant me one request?"
Jiang You was trying to secure an incredibly powerful ally. If he succeeded, he could unleash Tiamat on anyone who refused to duel him.
"I want your help. Come to my side."
"Are you sure?"
Tiamat tilted her head.
"Even with my current Spirit Origin?"
Though her appearance resembled an Alterego, this Tiamat was fundamentally a Beast-class Spirit Origin—something that couldn't just appear anywhere.
"Does that mean you're willing? Don't worry, I have my ways. In fact, I have something similar myself..."
Since Tiamat had agreed, the rest was simple. "Tiamat, Basmu the Venom Dragon, attack directly!"
Exactly 9000 points of damage.
Tiamat LP 9000 → LP 0.
With Tiamat's defeat, all battles came to an end. The Lahmu that had broken through the defensive lines were torn to shreds by heavy firepower in front of Baal's city walls. Now, there was no longer any reason to fight in the entire Singularity. Once Chaldea retrieved the Holy Grail, the history of this place would begin to repair itself.
