The villainous young master just wants to live a Buddhist-like life.

　A massive beam of light pierced through space, aiming to destroy the blue Magic Ball along with (the Magical Beast: Espeon).

　Let's devour them together!

　The beam travels at extremely high speed and covers a very wide area, making it very difficult for a Pokémon like Espeon to dodge.

　open.

　But it narrowed its eyes, then abruptly pushed the magic ball away, and then actively met the [Holy Beam]!

　"Oops!"

　Mike Irving's expression changed repeatedly!

　【Eevee】This act of "sacrificing himself for righteousness" was completely unexpected by him.

　If he cannot end the game at this point, his chances of winning will drop significantly.

　His momentary lapse in concentration caused his control over the magic ball to freeze.

　The Moon Goddess descended from the sky, displaying her graceful bearing, her sword thrusting straight forward like a celestial being descending from heaven.

　The red team's magic ball's life barrier shattered almost instantly under this sword.

　Mike Irwin quickly maneuvered the magic ball to escape.

　Meanwhile, [Hero of Light • Seon], who managed to unleash the [Holy Beam] during a brief moment, was attacked by the [Blue-Eyes Young Dragon].

　The violent attack caused his magic power to plummet once again.

　Immediately seizing the opportunity, the Moon Goddess glanced at it and threw her sword.

　The single sword sheath vanished in a flash, reappearing already piercing the chest of [Hero of Light - Saiweng]!

　The mighty nine-star magic spirit, [Hero of Light, Saiweng], ultimately died at the hands of a six-star magic spirit!

　The orb of light, capable of foreseeing the future, coalesced in the air, without even a target to attack.

　When its broken body transformed into magic and dissipated in the air.

　The effect of [Hero's Arrival] will then disappear.

　That position of suppressing the entire area, and all the first-tier magical spirits, was completely gone.

　Dark looked at the [Cursed Cage: Impmon] in his hand, thought for a moment, and then summoned it to get some fresh air!

　At this moment, the duel was completely under Dark's control.

　Even if Mike Owen could multitask—manipulating the magic orb while casting a summoning spell—the speed of [Luna] wouldn't give him a chance to last until the next round.

　A flash of silver light appeared, and the red team's magic orb, already riddled with shattered life barrier, was completely destroyed.

　Just as Devimon materialized and was about to experience the atmosphere of a duel, it heard the whistle signaling the end of the duel.

　It immediately widened its eyes, speechless, and then slowly turned to look at Dark.

　"Can this appearance not be counted as 7?"

　"Second-year aristocratic college, Dark ● Dimon vs. fourth-year aristocratic college, Mike Owen."

　"The victor: Dark Dimon!"

　The referee's announcement was instantly drowned out by the roar of the audience.

　The perilous duel kept the audience on the edge of their seats, like a rollercoaster ride.

　But when the final victory was finally achieved, all the anxiety of watching the game turned into final excitement.

　Fans who are increasingly captivated by Darko Dimon are practically ready to rush onto the field and offer themselves to him.

　Fortunately, their actual location was separated from the dueling arena, which prevented the frenzy from turning sour.

　Darko Dimon raised his arm and waved with a smile.

　[I finished writing about this duel in one go.]

　[Thanks to the generous donor "惊散散散" for the Silver Treasure Chest!]

　[The bounty has been opened, but I've lost face terribly. I'm preparing to lift the cap to save face.]

　Warm-up (4k)

　After the duel ended, both contestants came down from the contestant platform.

　Mike Irving had always paid close attention to Darko. He had somewhat anticipated this defeat.

　Looking back, he witnessed almost the entire process of Dark Dimon's rise. He has a deeper understanding than others of how quickly this junior, two years his junior, has grown.

　I never expected that I would be no match for him so soon.

　During this duel, especially after summoning [Hero of Light - Seion], he repeatedly thought he was...

　They have taken control of the situation.

　The special ability of 【Hero of Light ● Saion】 is practically a bug-like existence in magical duels.

　He had never used it in previous magical duels, saving it as a trump card for crucial moments.

　For example, in the competition for the [Academy Cup]!

　Perhaps because he often saw Dark shine on the dueling stage, he gradually developed the desire to step onto that stage himself.

　The thought is to break free from the past—to drift along with the tide, and to struggle a little.

　But now it seems that he is far from enough.

　Let's leave the stage of the [Academy Cup] to those who are more outstanding.

　Thinking this, he glanced towards the blue team's platform after stepping down from the player's platform.

　Just then, Dak came down from over there, and their eyes met.

　A hundred meters away, Dak nodded to his senior, Owen, and then turned and walked toward the other side of the contestant passage.

　He has another duel today, but it's in two hours.

　Mike Irving walked out of the player tunnel and into the circular stands, where he sat back down next to Edwin Clark.

　Beside Lisa.

　"How are you feeling?" Edwin looked up and smiled.

　Mike Irving looked somewhat helpless: "The feeling of losing is never good."

　“That’s true.” Edwin turned back to look at the arena and suddenly said, “If you can summon [Hero of Light ● Seion] faster, you should be able to win.”

　Mike Irving's expression paused slightly; he hadn't expected the club president to discuss dueling tactics with him. He then sat down...

　Straight road:

　【Hero of Light - Seion】is a Ritual Card that requires certain Ritual conditions to activate, making it difficult to obtain initially.

　It was summoned. And I was lucky today to be able to draw it in the second round.

　Edwin shook his head: "There's nothing difficult or not difficult. If you're sure that [Hero of Light - Seion] can..."

　To bring you victory, you must find a way to solve all the problems that prevent you from quickly summoning it. (It cannot be done in...)

　If you draw it in the first round, then add magic cards to your deck that increase the probability of drawing it in the first round. (Requires a full deck.)

　If the ritual conditions are fixed, then devise a way to expedite their fulfillment. Once all the problems are solved, your ultimate goal will be achieved.

　Mike Irwin frowned, lost in thought.

　Edwin Clarissa shook her head and said, "After all, you're not a dueling specialist, so it's normal that you haven't prepared for it."

　In reality, most duelists in the academy, like you, simply treat dueling as a way to test their skills, gain combat experience, and perhaps add some variety to their lives. After graduation, most of them don't pursue dueling as a profession.

　There's no need to specialize in it. Duelists who specialize in dueling forge magic cards specifically for dueling, not for...

　Unprofessional duelists simply select suitable magic cards from their already crafted decks to build their decks.

　Mike Irving's mind raced: "To which category does the Nadak belong?"

　Edwin Clarissa smiled and said, "He, of course, belongs to the latter category. We all belong to the latter."

　Mike Irving said, "So who is the former Edwin?" Clarissa shook her head and said, "Very few. The nature of the academy dictates that very few of us will become professional duelists after graduation."

　Mike and Owen suddenly felt like they had been listening to a bunch of nonsense.

　Of course, that's not just empty talk.

　Edwin Clarissa said, "Next, it's Eluri's turn."

　【Fairy Princess】Eluri Clarissa.

　Fifth grade, Noble Academy.

　Elurly is Edwin's cousin, but they are the same age, both being fifth-year students in the noble academy.

　This relationship is slightly better than that with other members of the royal family.

　They were all nobles with royal blood, but none of them ever used their status to exercise privileges within the academy.

　Well-mannered nobles all know how to be humble.

　Even Anna and Angie, those two little troublemakers, rarely use their identities to their advantage.

　After leaving the open-air arena, Dark went to the circular area and sat in the middle of a group of magical spirits.

　Whenever he participates in a duel, any available magical spirit will accompany him.

　Magical spirits are born for battle, possessing innate fighting instincts, but within the academy, they face fierce combat machines.

　There are too few of them; they can't enter the dungeon alone, so they can only occasionally come to the duel arena to watch other people's matches.

　However, as they continue to grow, one day they will be able to stand on the competition stage and rely on their own abilities.

　Willpower joins the battle.

　Therefore, it is necessary to start observing and learning from duels now.

　After Dark sat down, he summoned [Cursed Cage: Impmon] and prepared to replace it with [Cursed Cage: Gabumon].

　But the newly manifested [Devimon] immediately pounced, transforming into a facehugger: "Eek!"

　Dark laughed as he took it off, but did not release the seal on the [Curse Cage].

　Then he calmed down and began to review the previous duel.

　The duel with Mike Irving didn't go smoothly, to be honest.

　The main obstacle was in the thinking stage. If you break everything down and examine it carefully, you will...

　I realized he could have done even better.

　In this duel, the [Lucky Dice] played a decisive role in the final roll, and that was also his...

　The key to victory.

　However, this crucial point is not entirely under our control.

　Placing your hopes on "luck" is not the way to win.

　What put him in a predicament, besides the unexpected nature of [Hero of Light - Saiweng], was also at the tactical level.

　The system failed to adequately induce Mike Owen to prematurely release a targeted spell card like "Storm Judgment".

　Simply put, Darko lacks some skill in psychological warfare.

　He still prefers to be straightforward.

　This mindset allowed him to narrowly win his duel with Mike Irwin. However, it could very well become his biggest weakness when facing the Fairy Princess, Eluri Clarissa.

　He needs to be more careful.

　To the audience, a magical duel is simply a matter of summoning one magical spirit and commanding another to release its power.

　That ultimate move, or the use of some magic or item, still requires consumption for the duelists.

　Immense mental capacity.

　In the duels at St. Marian Academy, it was difficult to discern the difference, because almost everyone could use magic.
