Lamor stood for a long time, staring at the Magic Card "Spellbook of Judgment," which he had revered as divine, now sealed by an array and labeled with "banned," feeling utterly deflated.
It's not simply negated, not sent to the graveyard, nor removed from the game; it was BANed directly.
Even if he could think of a way to retrieve Judgment, he wouldn't be able to use it in this duel again.
He felt as if he was under an invisible curse. Both he and his card deck were cursed, struggling with a heavy burden in this duel, unable to play the cards he had planned.
After a while, he snapped back to reality, his eyes gradually filled with fury and rage.
It seemed he finally didn't have the heart to maintain his gentlemanly demeanor — the Duel King's unsporting tactics had nearly made him lose his cool.
But to think that sealing Judgment would mean everything is settled, would indeed be underestimating him, Lamor the Spell-Casting Necromancer!
Now that "Anti-Spell Fragrance" is destroyed, the restrictions on Magic Cards are lifted, giving him room to maneuver.
"Activating the Magic Card 'Spellbook of Knowledge' from my hand!" Lamor said, "Send 'Spellbook' Magic Cards or Spellcaster-Type Monsters from my hand or field, except 'Spellbook of Knowledge,' to the graveyard, and draw two cards.
I send 'Spellbook Magician of Prophecy' to the graveyard, and draw two cards."
The short stature magician disappeared from the field, turned into a golden gleam and vanished into the card deck, as Lamor drew cards.
He cast a sharp glance across Youyu's field, gruffly saying, "I must admit, this duel has indeed surpassed my expectations. I have traveled across countless dimensions, and you might indeed be one of the most formidable opponents I've faced.
If it were the past, I might have really lost to you."
Then he changed his tone: "However, the current me is completely different! I've acquired new powers and with Magic, touched the threshold of the divine realm!
Now, I'll especially let you witness it firsthand!"
Lamor played the card he drew: "I summon 'Temperance of Prophecy'!"
[Temperance of Prophecy, Attack Power 1000]
"Temperance's effect: after activating a 'Spellbook' Magic Card during my main phase, I can tribute this card to Special Summon from my deck one Light or Dark Attribute, Level 5 or higher Spellcaster-Type Monster."
After speaking, Temperance completed its incantation, surrounded by the radiant glory of magic array, turning into powder and dissipating.
The pillar of magical light pierced the heavens, the brilliance is akin to "Spellbook of Judgment"! The magic power spread, even encompassing Lamor as a duelist, causing his appearance to begin transforming!
With a burst of astonishing magical power, a figure resembling a majestic archangel rose into the air. The wings lightly flapped, pure white feathers fluttering in the fierce wind.
In a mere instant, Lamor's image transformed into the holy "World of Prophecy."
World of Prophecy, summon!
[World of Prophecy, Attack Power 2900]
"Oh?" Youyu tilted his head, defying the magical storm, "Did he actually power up like that?"
World of Prophecy is Lamor's ultimate form when his light magic power is maximized after undergoing the judgment ritual.
And it's not just a change in appearance. Youyu could also vaguely feel that this guy's duelist level seemed to have suddenly risen as well.
"No wonder it's called 'Divine Magic,'" Youyu murmured, "Is that Spellbook really so mystical?"
"World of Prophecy's effect," Dulamond said, "When this card is Special Summoned through the effect of a Spellcaster-Type monster, I can select two 'Spellbook' Magic Cards from the graveyard and add them to my hand.
I add 'Spellbook of Knowledge' and 'Spellbook of Eternity' from the graveyard to my hand."
Two cards popped out from the graveyard, and Lamor drew them to his hand.
"Moreover, when using this effect to retrieve Spellbooks, show four different Spellbooks from the hand to the opponent, and all cards on the field besides this card...destroy them all!!!"
Dulamond displayed the four cards in his hand: "Spellbook of Knowledge," "Spellbook of Eternity," "Spellbook of Fate," and "Spellbook of Wisdom."
World of Prophecy spread its wings, lightly flapping and soaring into the sky. Holy and raging white light burst forth, sweeping the entire field like a thousand troops!
Everything was destroyed in the storm; even the magical sister Juno, who had repeatedly proven her worth, was not spared, and she perished with a tragic cry under the indiscriminate AOE from her allies.
The massive Interstellar City was likewise collapsing in the storm, towers breaking waist, crashing loudly onto the ground into pieces.
Yet, when the intense dazzling light faded, there were still two monsters standing in front of Youyu — a silver-white interstellar fighter jet, and a female samurai wielding a red light saber.
"Kozmo Sliprider, when destroyed by battle or effect, Special Summons from the deck one Level 4 or lower 'Kozmo' monster. I Special Summon 'Kozmoll Wickedwitch.'
[Kozmoll Wickedwitch, Defense 300]
"The Kozmo Forerunner, when destroyed by battle or effect, Special Summons one Level 6 or lower 'Kozmo' monster from the deck. I Special Summon 'Kozmo DOG Fighter.'
[Kozmo DOG Fighter, Defense 2400]
"And also, the effect of 'Kozmotown' that you just destroyed," Youyu said, "When the 'Kozmotown' in the field zone is destroyed by card effect, you can add one 'Kozmo' card from the deck to your hand."
Youyu drew a card that popped out from the deck.
"I add Kozmo... 'Dark Planet' to my hand!"
Dulamond: "!"
Kozmo Dark Planet!?
He certainly remembers this card, known as the ultimate weapon "Death Star," the ace that sweeps the galaxy with the Light of Destruction.
More importantly, that thing is also the nemesis of his "Spellbook" card deck!
Kozmo Dark Planet can negate and destroy the activation of any Magic Card by banishing one 'Kozmo' monster from the graveyard from play.
And as long as there's a 'Kozmo' monster in the graveyard available for activation costs, this effect can be activated any number of times in one turn.
Complete magic sealing again!
He must think of a countermeasure.
"Endless," Dulamond said, feeling a bit impatient.
His current feeling seemed as if he was facing an entire intergalactic fleet spanning the galaxy, their ships and warships like locusts, never-ending in their assault!
