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

　"Potpot" instantly shrank its shell and spun in the air before crashing into the foremost fire tornado.

　Its signature moves, such as "Power Divide," are largely ineffective against the "Mysterious Man." However, its "Sturdiness," which affects itself, can be fully utilized.

　"Boom!"

　The first fiery tornado slammed into Shuttle. Shuttle's magic was almost instantly depleted, but the "Sturdy" ability was triggered, allowing it to withstand the full power of the fiery tornado.

　Then Stardust Dragon flew out and used its Death Impediment to withstand the second fire tornado before being burned to death by the embers of the flames.

　But immediately after that, Stardust Dragon used its ultimate move – Stardust Radiance.

　The recently deceased "Stardust Dragon" was summoned again. Now, a "Blue-Eyes Girl" was beside Dark. As the resurrected "Stardust Dragon" swam towards the third fire tornado, the "Blue-Eyes Girl" unleashed her ultimate attack, "Hall of Light!"

　After blocking the third fire tornado, the "Stardust Dragon" that had died was resurrected in the "Hall of Light" and charged towards the fourth fire tornado.

　But at this moment, the remaining three fiery tornadoes were already very close to the "Moon Chariot".

　With a wave of her hand, a barrier of light appeared directly in front of her. Then, she raised her warhammer high, stomped her feet, and suddenly flew out, deliberately using the warhammer to smash into one of the fire tornadoes.

　"Only one dish left!"

　A thought struck Dak, and he immediately used "Moon Wheel Mirror Spin" to fly out with Ollie.

　The fiery tornado was extremely powerful; by keeping a distance, it could effectively protect the "Moon Chariot" from being affected.

　The fiery tornadoes that erupted in the sky resembled spectacular fireworks. A continuous stream of falling meteors slammed into the ground.

　The rock band put on a grand performance.

　After this background music started playing, "Four-Winged Elvis" launched an attack on "Mysterious Man".

　The "mysterious man" finally stopped attacking Dark and the others, and turned to face the "Four-Winged Cat King".

　But it was clearly angry at this moment, and vortexes of wind naturally appeared around it.

　As soon as the "Four-Winged Cat King" approached, he felt a stinging pain on his face, as an invisible wind had cut a bloody gash in his face!

　With the Four-Winged Cat King's defense of 18850 points at this time, his cheek was actually cut open by the whirlwind!

　The "mysterious man's" control over the wind was clearly far superior to the flames released by the magic wand.

　Dark released all the moonlight power from the Moon Goddess Mirror, making the armor of the Moon Goddess Armor as smooth as a mirror, and suddenly rushed towards the final fiery tornado.

　The instant they made contact, the armor of the Luna Armor burst forth with brilliant moonlight. Not only did it completely deflect the fiery tornado, but it also reflected it back!

　Unfortunately, the "mysterious man" didn't use his fire magic, which attacked him from both inside and outside. Otherwise, this reflection would have surely injured him.

　After deflecting the fire tornado, Dark stood in mid-air, looking up at the high platform.

　But that one glance made him frown sharply.

　The background music for "Four-Winged Elvis" has started playing, but he himself has not entered an invincible state.

　Dark didn't even see where the so-called "incredible power" was from it.

　In contrast, the whirlwind created by the "mysterious man" in his anger tore countless wounds on the "Four-Winged Cat King's" body.

　As a magical spirit, the "Four-Winged Cat King" lacks regenerative abilities due to the absence of any special attack techniques. Every wound inflicted on its body remains visible, leaving it in a sorry state in an instant.

　But Dark clearly sensed that its magic hadn't diminished much. It was as if the whirlwind had cut its skin but hadn't caused any real damage.

　"Could this be the so-called incredible power?"

　The idea suddenly popped into Dak's mind, but he quickly dismissed it.

　The whirlwind released by the "mysterious man" contained divine power in every wisp, clearly indicating that he was using some kind of rule.

　Their power does not surpass the defense of the "Four-Winged Cat King", but rather they possess the rule of "always breaking through the defense"!

　To describe it further, it should be very similar to the "absolute severing" of the "Ruyi Divine Sword," possessing the special power to cut through everything.

　However, unlike "absolute severance", the "mysterious man" used this power of the rule on the wind, not to "ignore defense", but simply to cut through it!

　The rules don't include the concept of "defense" at all! Therefore, "cutting" is the prerequisite, and damage comes only after that.

　Calculating damage naturally requires the concept of "defense." At first glance, this seems like a power even less powerful than "ignoring defense."

　In fact... that is indeed the case.

　The "mysterious man" merely gleaned a tiny bit of authority from the characteristics of the wind, nothing more.

　Therefore, although its wind broke through the "Four-Winged Elvis's" defense, the damage it caused was only "1".

　However, this is merely a phenomenon caused by the divine power naturally released by the "mysterious man." If it were to get serious, it might truly be able to "ignore defenses," which would be fatal to the "Four-Winged Cat King"... no!

　Dark suddenly realized that if the "mysterious man" had the authority to "ignore defenses," he should have used it long ago.

　Ultimately, it had no reason to conceal its shortcomings! Therefore, it must not have any relevant authority.

　But based on this, Dark's thinking suddenly broadened. Although this "mysterious man" should not have the corresponding authority, there was no reason why Hermes, one of the twelve gods, would not possess such authority.

　After all, Hermes' primary attribute is undoubtedly wind, which is the flying type!

　So, isn't this "mysterious man" possessing Fred North Hermes?

　The moment this thought crossed his mind, the "mysterious man's" standing in his heart plummeted.

　He had already judged that the "mysterious man's" power wouldn't be excessive based on the existence of the "six-winged angel." Now, his assumptions were further confirmed.

　This made Dark even more convinced that he could defeat it!

　Building confidence is especially important for any battle.

　After a brief moment of thought, he quickly returned to the carriage. By this time, Ollie had already neutralized the fire tornado facing her, and another fire tornado had been blocked by the resurrected "Stardust Dragon." Only Dark had reflected that fire tornado back.

　The fiery tornado grew larger and larger in the air, displaying a terrifying aura when it reached the high platform.

　The expression on the "mysterious man's" face became even more ferocious.

　But this time it did not retaliate; instead, it simply swung its wand and smashed it hard against the fiery tornado.

　With a "boom," the fiery tornado was smashed apart by its magic wand!

　The fiery tornado exploded instantly, sending billowing waves of flame surging outwards. The swirling winds surrounding the "mysterious man" mixed with the flames, their power suddenly increasing dramatically.

　But the "Four-Winged Cat King" braved the scorching heat of the flames and charged into the blazing waves, and finally, a silvery-white light shone on its body!

　"Now! 'Iron Body'!" Dark shouted suddenly.

　With the [Fossil Aerial Dragon (Sword Beast)] as an alternative, "Iron Body" is no longer essential, and the sixty seconds can be used entirely for the first round of frontal assault.

　However, while the "Four-Winged Cat King" and the "Mysterious Man" are engaged in battle, Dark must summon the "Fossil Pteranodon" as soon as possible.

　This is certainly not a problem for him.

　In fact, he could even use the "Stardust Dragon" as a sacrifice to directly summon the "Fossil Aerial Dragon".

　It's not necessary for the time being.

　Furthermore, although the "Stardust Dragon" has temporarily lost its function, it can be summoned again once the cooldown of "Stardust Summon" ends, so it is still necessary to keep it.

　As Aoli retreated back onto the carriage, the "Four-Winged Cat King" on the platform finally approached the "Mysterious Man," and then unleashed a "Shadow Tiger Claw" strike, aiming directly for the "Four-Winged Cat King's" face. This "Shadow Tiger Claw" strike, of course, could not cause any real harm to the "Mysterious Man."

　But when it hit his face directly, the "mysterious man" instinctively dodged backward. Immediately afterwards, lightning bolt marks appeared on the "Four-Winged Cat King's" forehead, accompanied by a crackling sound of electricity.

　The "mysterious man" sneered, maintaining his upright, leaning-back posture, and suddenly thrust his magic wand like a longsword into the chest and abdomen of the "Four-Winged Cat King".

　Divine power condensed on the wand, and wind elements attached themselves to the divine power, forming a blade.

　The "mysterious man's" sword pierced directly into the "Four-Winged Cat King's" heart. With a soft "thud," it pierced right through the heart! The sword, formed from the magic wand, was covered in the power of rules. While it couldn't ignore the "Four-Winged Cat King's" defenses and inflict effective damage, it sliced ​​through the body without any hindrance, ultimately penetrating it completely!

　If this were a real living creature, it would die simply by having its heart removed from its left chest.

　However, the "Four-Winged Cat King" is a magical spirit and will not be truly injured because of this.

　It didn't even bother to look down before unleashing "Lightning Burst" to cover its entire body. As the golden current spread across its body, its cat claws were covered in lightning, piercing out like lightning bolts!

　[Lightning Burst], 30 seconds!

　Within these thirty seconds, the "Four-Winged Elvis" will receive an extremely terrifying boost to its power and speed.

　The aura that erupted in that instant caused the "mysterious man's" expression to change drastically. He actually released his grip on the wand and grabbed at the cat's paw that was thrusting towards his face!

　A strong wind rose.

　The "mysterious man's" palm was filled with extremely strong wind elemental energy, and he gripped the "Four-Winged Cat King's" right paw tightly.

　"Desperate Lion's Roar!"

　The command that rang out in an instant caused the "Four-Winged Cat King" to open its mouth and let out a soul-shaking lion's roar at the "mysterious man" as soon as its right paw was stopped!

　Under the influence of "Devourer 2L", "Desperate Roar" was enhanced, just like "Light Chaser". It even gained more unique effects as a result.

　Whether it was the claw strike that hit his face earlier, or the thunderous blow under "Lightning Burst," both were designed to create the best environment for the use of "Desperate Lion's Roar."

　The more the "mysterious man" believed that the thunderous strike under the "lightning burst" was the full force of the "Four-Winged Cat King," the less he would expect that there would be follow-up attacks, and he would be "caught off guard" in his mind and consciousness.

　That moment of being caught off guard was exactly what Dark was looking for! The "mysterious man" revealed a fatal flaw in that instant.

　The "Desperate Roar" brings not only despair, but also a targeted effect of "blowing" the soul and consciousness out of the body!

　Amidst that deafening roar, the "soul" that the "mysterious man" had attached to Fred North suddenly detached from his body and appeared before everyone in a semi-transparent form!

　Dark's eyes widened suddenly, golden light filling his pupils.

　The "mysterious man's" true form was laid bare before the "Eye of Truth."

　"Swallow!"

　With almost no time to think, Dark issued a command to the "Four-Winged Cat King" that had not been pre-set!

　Even the "Four-Winged Cat King" was slightly taken aback when he heard the name of the ultimate move.

　Then, suddenly realizing what was happening, the giant maw widened to an unbelievable size and began to "devour"—Fred North's body!

　In that critical moment, Dark couldn't even utter a complete command. But the "Four-Winged Cat King," with its exceptional intelligence, understood his meaning and instinctively carried it out.

　Then, the moment it successfully executed the command, it was filled with utter regret! It couldn't help but curse itself for being so clever, for it had grasped Dark's meaning perfectly.

　How wonderful it would be if I pretended not to understand and instead "devoured" the soul consciousness of that "mysterious person"!

　But the ban imposed on it by Dac makes it impossible for it to disobey, and it's just a thought.

　After swallowing Fred North's body into its "stomach," the "Four-Winged Cat King" did not hesitate to swing its claws again. The cat claws, still wrapped in lightning, pierced through the "mysterious man's" slightly fragile soul the moment it left his body!

　At that moment, time seemed to slow down for the entire world. Dark clearly noticed that the face of the "mysterious man's" "soul" became distorted, revealing a series of negative emotions such as doubt, astonishment, fear, and disbelief.

　The lightning bolts attached to the cat's paws caused its "soul" to twitch, adding to the pain on its face.

　This is such a rare opportunity!

　Dark decisively stopped the Normal Summon that was about to begin in the last second, and instead summoned and activated the Magic Card with a special function - "Netherworld Soul Ring"!

　The "Netherworld Soul Ring" should theoretically be ineffective against the "Mysterious Man," but if it's a soul... or if it's something that looks like a soul but is actually just a poorly made-up soul pieced together from various parts!

　The collar that suddenly appeared contracted inward, like a tight band around the "mysterious man's" head.

　Although it cannot be completely restrained, it deprives the creature of the possibility of immediate escape.

　Having lost its physical body, it was fragile, flickering like a candle flame. The cat's claws, under the "lightning burst," tore its soul apart, causing it to suddenly experience extreme pain it had never felt before.

　That kind of pain made its already fragile soul even more blurred.

　Dark even had the illusion that if "Desperate Roar 2" were to be used again, it would completely shatter his soul.

　All previous calculations became useless at this moment. Only by adapting to the situation can one truly seize the opportunity.

　In the final seconds of "Lightning Burst," the "Four-Winged Cat King" unleashed a frenzied clawing attack on the soul, weakening it to its limit in a very short time.

　Then the lightning subsided, and the "Four-Winged Cat King's" attacks returned to normal. The "Mysterious Man's" soul released terrifying waves of divine power amidst its screams.

　The surrounding flames were instantly dispersed by a wind that appeared out of nowhere, and even more wind containing divine power was released from its body.

　The "Four-Winged Elvis" still had his wand stuck in his chest, and the wounds on his body were spreading wildly as the wind cut through them.

　This time, however, it's not just about "cutting open".

　The power of the gale increased several levels in a single second.

　The magic of the "Four-Winged Cat King" seemed to vanish into thin air. In an instant, it felt a slow, agonizing pain as its entire body was cut into countless pieces and then dissipated into magic!

　It was instantly killed by the "mysterious man's" final burst of power! As the "Four-Winged Cat King's" body completely vanished, the magic wand fell to the ground. "Undying King" triggered!

　Just as the soul of the "mysterious man" was about to roar, he saw the body of the "Four-Winged Cat King" reform in the same spot.
