Traveling in reverse through the Yu-Gi-Oh! world with the MD system

Chapter 54 The Dragon of Thunder and Fire

With a red body, white bone dragon horns, and two differently shaped bone dragon wings on its back, each inlaid with a green and a red jewel, and bone armor covering its body covered with deep blue gems, this is Yuya Sakaki's trump card that Yuujuku and the others are most familiar with: [Odd-Eyed Spirit Pendulum Dragon].

Beside the [Heterochromatic Pendulum Dragon] at this moment, there was another dragon beast that was a size smaller than it, but it was quite similar to it. However, it had more bone armor on its body, and even its face was covered with armor. Its tail also had two sharp bone spikes forked out.

"Oh? So this is Pendulum Summoning?"

Looking at the two dragon beasts that had descended upon Yuya Sakaki's field, Hokuto Shijima considered for a moment and decided to give up activating the effect of [Star Saint? Pleiades], intending to see what Yuya Sakaki would do next.

"Then, I activate the pendulum effect of [Entertainment Partner Odd-Eyes Dissolver]! Once per turn, I send the Fusion Material Monsters that are the Dragon Fusion Monsters from my hand or field to the Graveyard, and Special Summon that Fusion Monster from my Extra Deck!"

I will use the [Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon] and [Odd-Eyes Mirage Dragon] on the field as materials for a Fusion Summon!

At Yuya Sakaki's call, the magician, whose entire body was covered by a black bodysuit, raised his staff. The green jewel at the top of the staff, surrounded by three rings of gold thread, emitted a dazzling light.

Instantly, green light emanated from the bodies of [Odd-Eyed Pendulum Dragon] and [Odd-Eyed Mirage Dragon], and they plunged into the yellow and blue vortex that symbolized fusion.

"The power of thunder, now reside within the heterochromatic eye! Fusion Summon! Appear, the two-colored eye that wields lightning! [Heterochromatic Eye Wind and Thunder Dragon]!"

From the yellow-blue vortex, several streaks of crimson lightning burst forth, and a dragon beast, its entire body encased in gold-edged blue armor, waved its four small dragon wings with gold-edged white feathers and landed in front of Yuya Sakaki.

"[Odd-Eyes Wind and Thunder Dragon]'s effect! When this card is Special Summoned, you can target 1 face-up Attack Position monster your opponent controls; return that monster to its owner's hand!"

Let the winds of resurgence blow upon [Star Saint? Pleiades]! [Heterochromatic Wind Thunder Dragon]!

"Don't try to succeed!"

As [Heterochromatic Wind and Thunder Dragon] flapped its four wings at Yuya Sakaki's voice, streaks of red lightning struck towards [Star Saint - Pleiades], Hokuto Shijima quickly activated the effect of [Star Saint - Pleiades]:

"Activate the effect of [Star Saint? Pleiades]! Use one Light Material to return one card from the field to your hand! Now, return [Odd-Eyes Wind and Thunder Dragon] to your hand!"

Seeing [Star Saint? Pleiades] extend its right hand and grasp one of its light orbs, symbolizing the material of stacked light, and golden rays of light burst forth from its right hand, shooting straight towards [Heterochromatic Wind and Thunder Dragon], Hokuto Shijima finally breathed a sigh of relief:

Great, one for one. His heterochromatic masked dragon only has 1200 attack power. The next round will be my chance to turn the tide.

However, Yuya Sakaki's voice rang out at that moment:

"Then, I activate the effect of [Odd-Eyes Masked Dragon]! Once per turn, target 1 face-up monster Special Summoned from the Extra Deck, and negate that monster's effects until the end of the turn!"

[Heterochromatic Masked Dragon], negates the effect of [Star Saint? Subaru Cluster]!

"What!?"

Hokuto Shijima never expected that this match, which should have been a chance for him to showcase his skills, would turn into a disadvantage in an instant.

With a roar from the [Heterochromatic Masked Dragon], a mask identical to the one on the face of [Star Saint? Pleiades] also appeared, and the golden light in its hand dimmed at that moment.

Red lightning descended, completely turning [Star Saint? Pleiades]'s body into specks of light.

No, it's not over yet. [Odd-Eyes Thunder Dragon] only has an attack power of 2500. Even if these two monsters launch a direct attack on me, I can still save it for the next turn. Besides, this is the field I know best!

But just as Hokuto Shijima stood up, comforting himself with these thoughts, he heard Yuya Sakaki's voice again:

"It's not over yet! I'll Normal Summon [Entertainment Partner Odd-Eyes Synchron] from my hand!"

As Yuya Sakaki slammed the card onto the Duel Disk, a small, robot-like monster wearing a hat with wings and star patterns, eyes made of two golden gears with one red and one green in the middle, and a bow tie, leaped up in front of Yuya Sakaki.

"This monster... only has 200 attack power? If that's the case, I still have 100 LP left, and I know this field's action cards best. I'm sure I can survive until the next turn!"

Just as Hokuto Shijima raised his head, searching for the action cards that had fallen along with the shooting star on the field, Yuya Sakaki began his final performance:

"I will perform a Synchro Summon with my Level 5 [Odd-Eyes Masked Dragon] and Level 2 [Entertainer Odd-Eyes Synchron]!"

"What? Synchro Summoning!?"

If Yuya Sakaki's fusion summoning of [Odd-Eyes Wind and Thunder Dragon] only surprised the LDS members a little, then this Synchro Summoning truly shocked them.

Even the person who had been hiding in the corner, secretly watching the battle, now cast a surprised glance at Sakaki Yuya in the dueling arena:

"You truly deserve to be called the creator of the pendulum. I only managed to achieve this thanks to the manpower and financial resources of LDS, and I never expected that you would also accomplish it."

But that's fine too. Only in this way can you be worthy of being my opponent and meet my expectations!

"Fallen flames, now burn in those heterochromatic eyes! Synchro Summon! Appear, blazing heterochromatic eyes! Rank 7, [Opposite-Eyed Meteorite Dragon]!"

After [Odd-Eyes Masked Dragon] passed through the two pale green circles formed by [Entertainment Partner Odd-Eyes Synchronizer], its body instantly turned into green light and reconstructed into an equally bright red dragon beast.

However, the dragon's horns and wings, and even the armor covering its entire body, all exhibited a beautiful streamlined shape, as dazzling and spectacular as a blazing flame.

Although [Odd-Eyes Meteor Dragon], like [Odd-Eyes Gale Dragon], can activate its effect upon successful Special Summoning, Yuya Sakaki chose not to activate it due to concerns about its side effects.

"Battle has begun! [Opposite-Eyes Gale Dragon] and [Opposite-Eyes Meteor Dragon] are launching a direct attack on Hokuto Shijima!"

"Don't even think about succeeding! I activate the action card [Evasion] to negate the attack of [Odd-Eyes Meteor Dragon]!"

This was Hokuto Shijima's last struggle. Faced with lightning and flames spewed from the mouths of two dragon beasts at the same time, he could only hope that the action cards in his hand would allow him to survive until the next turn.

but……

"I activate the other effect of [Odd-Eyes Wind and Thunder Dragon]! When a monster other than this card has an effect, a Spell Card, or a Trap Card is activated, return 1 face-up Pendulum Monster from your Extra Deck to the Deck, negate that activation, and destroy it!"

In response to Yuya Sakaki's voice, Hokuto Shijima saw the phantom of [Odd-Eyed Pendulum Dragon] crashing into him, shattering his newly activated [Evasion].

ended.

Amidst the interplay of lightning and flames, Hokuto Shijima's LP dropped to 0, allowing Yuya Sakaki to secure the victory.

Chapter 55, Second Battle: The Knight of the Jewels

"I actually... lost..."

Seeing Shijima Hokuto's LP reduced to zero in the duel arena, Akama Himika could no longer maintain her confident expression, and a look of astonishment appeared on her face.

In fact, Akaba Himika was somewhat prepared for the possibility that Shijima Hokuto might be defeated by Sakaki Yuya.

After all, based on the information she had, although Yuya Sakaki's win rate was not good, he was already the most skilled student in Yusho Academy when it came to dueling.

Furthermore, the appearance of pendulum summoning might be unfamiliar to LDS students who have never seen it before, so Akaba Himika believes she can accept the outcome of this duel no matter what.

However, when the actual results came out and she saw that Yuya Sakaki had successfully defeated Hokuto Shijima in just one round, Himika Akaba realized that she had underestimated Yuya Sakaki.

"Pendulum Summoning, it makes us even more eager to have you in our hands."

"Chairman..."

Having left the dueling arena, Hokuto Shijima had lost all his previous arrogance; his head drooped like a wilted eggplant as he walked to Himika Akaba's side.

"I'm sorry, I lost."

"call……"

After glancing at the group from Yuushojuku who were already cheering for Sakaki Yuya's victory, Akaba Himika, with a gloomy face, began to lecture Shijima Hokuto.

"I never expected you to lose to a student from such a small private school. The reputation of LDS's Superpower Department is going to cry because of this."

Having said that, Akama Himika stopped paying attention to the loser, Shijima Hokuto, and her confident expression returned.

"It's your turn next."

"Yes, Chairman."

Behind Akama Himika, the only girl from LDS responded and then walked towards Yushojuku and the others.

"Oh, she's here. Looks like that girl is the one playing for LDS in this round. Yuzu, you're a girl too, is that alright?"

Hearing Soleva's teasing remarks about her volunteering, Yuzu immediately snorted at Soleva:

“Mr. Soleva, this is an important duel to protect Yushojuku. Even if my opponent is also a girl, I will not hold back!”

"Okay, I mentioned it because you weren't doing too well the past few days. But now it seems... well, it's good that you have the fighting spirit."

Soreva shrugged and watched as the girl with slightly dark skin walked straight up to them and introduced herself:

"I am Masumi Mitsutsu, from the Fusion Department."

Upon hearing that the girl was a student in the LDS Fusion Department, Sora, who was also skilled in fusion summoning, widened her eyes slightly:

"Hey~ So this older sister also uses fusion summoning."

But that was all. Although she had suffered several losses at the hands of Sorewa, Su Liang believed that she had no rivals in the same age group, so she was only slightly surprised before eating her Glico biscuit sticks again.

Meanwhile, after introducing himself, Mitsutsu Masumi took out a duel disk from a pocket hanging from her belt, fastened it to her left wrist, and issued a duel challenge:

"So, who will be my opponent?"

"Your opponent is me!"

After taking a few steps to stand in front of Mitsutsu Masumi, Hiiragi Yuzu and Mitsutsu Masumi looked at each other.

Whether it was because her opponent was also a girl or for some other reason, the tense expression on Mitsutsu Masumi's face instantly relaxed, and instead revealed a strange, relaxed smile.

This made Yuzu Hiiragi nervous:

"What...what does she mean by that? Does she look down on me?"

When Shuzo Hiiragi in the control room saw that one of the duelists was his beloved daughter, a smile involuntarily spread across his face as he carefully selected from several action dueling arenas:

"The perfect setting for my lovely daughter is... Okay, this is it! Activate Action Field, cast Field Spell, [Crystal Corridor]!"

After the duel arena was materialized by the physical projection system into a magnificent palace made of crystal and various jewels, Shuzo Hiiragi even started the broadcast to greet Yuzu Hiiragi in the duel arena:

"Yuzu, I've chosen a venue that's a perfect match for your dazzling and adorable self! Shine brightly here!"

However, Hiiragi Shuzo's actions were so embarrassing that Hiiragi Yuzu's cheeks flushed red. Turning her head to look in the direction of the control room, she complained reproachfully:

"father!"

Standing opposite Yuzu Hiiragi, Masumi Mitsutsu let out a cold laugh after witnessing the interaction between Shuzo Hiiragi and Yuzu.

"To say that a child like you looks dazzling, what an unexpectedly doting father you are."

Yuzu Hiiragi could easily sense the obvious belittling intent. Although she felt embarrassed by her father's behavior, she was still happy about his concern. Therefore, upon hearing Masumi Mitsutsu's derogatory remarks, Yuzu immediately frowned in anger.

"What did you say!?"

"Your eyes just now showed a good fighting spirit, but you were still too naive and immature."

Despite Hiiragi Yuzu's anger, Mitsutsu Masumi maintained her cool tone and began to speak eloquently.

“My father is a gem merchant. I’ve seen all kinds of gems since I was a child, including real gems with true brilliance. Compared to those gems, your brilliance is too dim, like an uncut jade. But that’s normal, after all, flowers in a greenhouse can’t become gems.”

Hearing Mitsutsu Masumi's tone, which sounded as if she were making a definitive judgment on herself, Hiiragi Yuzu immediately retorted angrily:

"Whether I am an unpolished gem or a flower in a greenhouse, you'll find out clearly through this duel!"

"Duel!" ×2
