Although Mirror Force might seem useless, keeping it still serves as a thought. As for El Shaddoll Fusion, there are ways to retrieve it. Placing it on the field now might block the Spell and Trap zone during Tenjo's turn, so I'll send it to the Graveyard.
Humans, LP: 7800→9800.
"Why?"
"Yeah, since Mischief of the Time Goddess has been activated, there's no need to deal with Mirage of Nightmare, right?" Shou was a bit puzzled, "Also, wasn't the effect of Darkness Greedy Desire skipped?"
Indeed.
This is quite strange, isn't it?
"About that..." Judai took a moment to explain to everyone, "The effect of Mirage of Nightmare is to discard hand cards during the next Standby Phase, which is a mandatory effect. Even if the turn is skipped, you must discard a hand card during your own Standby Phase."
Ah, I see—
Everyone hadn't used Mirage of Nightmare before, so they weren't aware of such peculiarities. Now that Judai explained it, they understood Tenjo Hikari's tactics.
That's fine, they've already drawn 8 cards, this card has already served its purpose.
"Didn't expect, Hikari, you knew even this. I was about to remind you." Judai exclaimed again in admiration.
"Haha, just happened to know."
While they were talking about this, because the scene was already quite grand, all the awakened humans were now watching the Duel.
As expected, it triggered a fierce debate among them.
"Damn, only 7 turns left!"
"Wh-What do we do now? I-I don't want to die!"
"Don't worry, that guy has no tricks left, he's set a card and Summoned a Monster in Defense Position, that's all he can do!"
"From now on, we just need to attack!"
"My turn, draw!"
Judai drew a card and looked down at the five cards in his hand.
"Judai, don't be nervous." Yubel quickly reminded him from beside him.
"It's alright, I know." He hesitated to say.
But the voice in his ear was urging him, urging him to win this Duel quickly.
No—
Can't be hasty.
He looked at his hand cards.
No, Neos Wingman can't be Summoned.
He glanced at the cards in his hand, carefully pondering.
Too many of his search and draw cards were interrupted by Darkness, making it difficult to Summon his ace now.
But fortunately, the hand is decent, and he can carry out another strategy.
"Normal Summon Vision Hero Vyon."
"When this card is successfully Summoned or Special Summoned, its effect can be activated. Send 1 [Hero] Monster from the Deck to the Graveyard. I send Evil Hero Vicious Claws from the Deck to the Graveyard."
"Then I follow up by activating Vyon's effect, banishing 1 Hero Monster from the Graveyard to activate. Add 1 Polymerization from the Deck to the hand. I banish Lightning Warrior from the Graveyard."
Judai took the card and grinned, "Hikari, I'm giving you a Polymerization—I add Fusion Substitute from the Deck to the hand."
Due to his friendship with Tenjo Hikari and his curiosity about Hikari's tactic of using 2 base Polymerizations and 1 Fusion Substitute, Judai previously included Fusion Substitute in his Deck, which now happens to be available for Hikari to use afterward.
"Then, I activate the Spell Card, Neos Fusion!"
Judai played this special card: "Send the Fusion Material decided by the Fusion Monster from your own hand, Deck, and field to the Graveyard, and Special Summon 1 Fusion Monster ignoring Summoning Conditions from the Extra Deck, using only 2 Monsters including [Elemental Hero Neos] as Fusion Materials. After this card is activated, until the end of the turn, I cannot Special Summon Monsters!"
"I send Elemental Hero Neos from the Deck and Ultimate Crystal God Rainbow Dragon from my Deck to the Graveyard!"
"Oh! It's Rainbow Dragon!" John saw his Monster appear in the sky and couldn't help but cheer for Judai.
"Fusion Conditions are Neos and Ultimate Crystal God Monster!"
"Witness, the overwhelming hope, Rainbow Dragon's power!"
"Fusion Summon, LV 10, Rainbow Neos!"
Golden wings spread, light bathed this world like the colors of hope illuminated, countless people fell silent at the appearance of this Monster, beautiful, noble, like a divine Monster.
With its hands raised gently towards the sky, a rainbow then swept across the horizon, gently draping over the dark Earth, illuminating the world.
Overwhelming hope!
Rainbow Neos, LV 10, Light Attribute, Warrior-Type, ATK 4500.
"Wow!"
"4500 ATK!"
"Amazing, just like that other Monster before, reaching the level of Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon!"
"Wow, is this the fusion ace of Big Brother and John's cards? So cool!"
Judai said excitedly, "This is John's, Rainbow Dragon's power, check it out—the effect of Rainbow Neos!"
"Once per turn, choose one of the following types of cards and send them to the Graveyard, returning all designated targets back to the Deck.
1 Monster on your field: All monsters on the field.
1 Spell and Trap Card on your field: All of the opponent's Spell and Trap Cards on the field.
The top card of your Deck: All cards in the opponent's Graveyard.
I choose..."
Judai hesitated for a moment.
Although he should choose the Spell and Trap Cards, somehow he felt that covered Monster was suspicious.
That darkness!
That Darkness!
That guy prepared before the Duel began, how could he casually set a Monster and wait to be defeated!?
"I send Vision Hero Vyon on the field to the Graveyard, activating the first effect!"
