"My turn!"
The Dark Magician Girl swiftly drew a card, glanced at her hand, winked at the audience, and then quickly played a monster card.
"Normal Summon, Chocolate Magician Girl!"
"Ehe~" A petite, adorably cute magician girl with light blue long hair, wearing an outfit similar to the Dark Magician Girl, flew out from the card and waved to the crowd.
Chocolate Magician Girl, LV 4, Water Attribute, Spellcaster-Type, ATK 1600.
"Wow!!"
"So cute!" Unaware bystanders, even Professor Cronos, erupted into cheers.
Shou, however, showed no sign of "falling in love" in front of the Dark Magician Girl, steadfastly believing she was the cutest.
"Activate the special ability of Chocolate Magician Girl," the Dark Magician Girl swayed her Magic Staff gently, "Once per turn, discard a Spellcaster-Type monster from your hand to activate. Draw 1 card from the Deck.
Discard Dark Magician Girl. Draw!"
After drawing the card, she waved to the audience again and said, "End turn."
"Great! With only 1600 ATK, it's a good chance to attack fiercely this turn!" Serena said, clapping her fists together, speaking in her usual style.
"Huh?" The students of the Fusion Army focused more on Tenjo Hikari than Serena. Seeing the situation, they imagined it wouldn't matter, but they realized something completely different from what they thought, "Strange, this situation shouldn't be a big deal for Tenjo Hikari, why does he look so troubled?"
Judai and the others could hear them, and those with expansive knowledge like Mitsuzawa Daichi and Caesar Ryo only shook their heads repeatedly.
"Hey, what do you mean!"
"Uh… classmate," Mitsuzawa Daichi shook his head, "That… Chocolate Magician Girl, is not an ordinary card!"
Manjome nodded repeatedly: "That monster's effect is quite strong—if a monster attacks her, she can immediately revive a Spellcaster-Type monster from the Graveyard and reduce the opponent's monster's ATK by half and redirect the target to that monster…"
"So strong!" Upon hearing this effect, the Fusion Army finally realized her potential threat—there is a Dark Magician Girl in the Graveyard, if they attack now, they'll need at least 4000 ATK to be worthy!
"Was that card designed by Mr. Yugi? I heard my master mention it before… It hasn't been released yet on the market." Manjome frowned, "Indeed, that is undoubtedly the [real deal]!"
This is a card with a distinct design style of Muto Yugi, seemingly ordinary and cute at first glance, but secretly deadly.
"Haha, it's alright, Hikari's deck has many solutions!" Judai laughed beside.
Tenjo Hikari looked at his hand cards.
He didn't draw the simplest card.
If he had Instant Fusion, he could directly Fusion Summon Thousand-Eyes Restrict, allowing him to directly devour Chocolate Magician Girl and then attack.
As for his current hand cards…
He didn't dare to take the risk.
"I activate the Continuous Spell Card, Future Fusion!" Tenjo Hikari placed a Continuous Spell Card into the back row, although Professor Cronos hadn't acquired this world's Future Fusion yet, the Future Fusion after numbering still had its benefits, at least now he didn't have to perform fusion immediately, "Then, set two cards, and end turn."
"Not choosing to attack proactively? Then it's my turn~"
The Dark Magician Girl drew a card, glanced at it, and then chuckled: "Normal Summon, Apple Magician Girl!"
This time, a short-haired girl in a red magician outfit with wings and making a handgun gesture with her hand, landed on the ground.
Apple Magician Girl, LV 3, Fire Attribute, Spellcaster-Type, ATK 1200.
"Oops, this time it's a Magigirl that can Special Summon a LV 5 Spellcaster from the hand." Manjome was uncertain.
"Not only that," Caesar frowned, "If this card is destroyed, it can retrieve a Spellcaster from the Graveyard…"
"So strong! It's too powerful!" Judai was both surprised and delighted, "This duel is completely different from the earlier one!"
"However, in terms of strategy, it's still restricting opponent's attacks, right?" Fubuki gently plucked his guitar strings, "Haha, if it were me, facing this Deck, I should have a pretty good advantage."
Serena, who had been eavesdropping, suddenly realized.
So that's how it is. If it were her, she'd probably recklessly charge in again.
"Attack, Magigirls direct attack!"
"Wait, activate Set Card, Quick-Play Spell, Scapegoat!" At Tenjo Hikari's shout, four different colored fluffy creatures appeared.
"Oh! It's Scapegoat!" The Dark Magician Girl certainly recognized the card and quickly covered her mouth with one hand to lower her voice when she saw the sheep appear, "Gently, don't wake them up~"
The two Magigirls raised their Magic Staffs, tiptoed over, and each took down the yellow and blue sheep.
"If it's Scapegoat, then the next step should be Metamorphosis?" The Fusion Army students said instinctively.
"What, use Thousand-Eyes Restrict to absorb the Magigirls! Tenjo Hikari is too cruel —" A Fusion Army student couldn't help but voice their true thoughts, "How could you use such a brutal effect on Magigirls!"
It seemed this student really wanted to blend into the crowd and chant slogans with the Dark Magician Girl support students.
"Alright then, end turn." The Dark Magician Girl gently pressed a button to end her turn.
"My turn, draw!" Tenjo Hikari drew a card and pointed to the field, "Activate Future Fusion's effect, during the first preparation phase after this card's activation, reveal a Fusion Monster from the Extra Deck. Send all Fusion Materials of that Fusion Monster to the Grave.
I reveal Ultimate Ancient Gear Golem, send Ancient Gear Golem, and Ancient Gear Knight from the Deck to the Grave!"
"Ultimate Ancient Gear Golem?" Manjome thought of a possibility, "Could it be, Tenjo plans to fight with the power of the Ultimate Giant? Indeed, the Ultimate Ancient Gear Golem has a whopping 4400 ATK, even when reduced it can still battle."
Mitsuzawa Daichi was also surprised: "Using this method? I thought he would battle with Metamorphosis, didn't expect he would use the Ultimate Giant?"
"Because even Thousand-Eyes Restrict can't resolve the Magigirls, it can only stalemate on the field, right? Even if they're devoured, as long as there's a Magigirl, Tenjo can only wait, unable to attack proactively." Asuka mentioned while on the side.
"In other words, Hikari's plan is to wait until both Thousand-Eyes Restrict and the Ultimate Giant are in play to fight?" Judai frowned, "It doesn't seem that simple."
The observing students marveled at their analysis.
"Amazing, that Dark Magician Girl is strong and cute!"
"Blockade by attack is actually that impressive?"
"Mmm mmm~ Is that so!" The Dark Magician Girl nodded with a smile, drawing a card from the Deck.
Quick-Play Spell, Magical Dimension. It allows sacrificing a Spellcaster to Special Summon a Spellcaster and destroy an opponent's monsters.
In her eyes, she saw the Ultimate Giant being burst by her Magic Burst the moment it came out.
The Dark Magician Girl chuckled to herself.
If she won, Brother Black Luster Soldier probably couldn't complain that she forgot her task, right?
