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

　Sarah, supporting the cat's leg, decisively commanded, "Nether Cat, Shadow Bind!" The cat, "Returning from the Underworld," cried out, and its enormous paw pressed forward forcefully. Countless tentacles immediately extended from its feet, clinging to the ground and spreading out in all directions in an instant.

　Sarah lifted her foot and gently tapped it, and shadowy tentacles emerged from beneath her feet, lifting her to a higher place.

　She flipped herself onto the cat's back, leaned forward, gripped its fur tightly, and whispered, "Let's go!"

　"feed!"

　The cat that had returned from the underworld pounced out like a phantom. "Tick-tock!"

　The round switches again.

　Sarah only glanced at the displayed card projection out of the corner of her eye to confirm the type of the new magic card.

　But she focused more attention on her opponents.

　Garfield is only a third-year student, and his strength is likely stronger than the last remaining "Dragonman." But he absolutely cannot surpass the core trio of the Sky Magic Academy.

　These two nine-star magical spirits are theoretically the limit he can reach in a short period of time.

　The key question now is whether he still has any magic cards left for "countermeasures". The battle between heaven and earth has finally come to an end, especially since it was in the eleventh month.

　Now, after layer reinforcement.

　However, its intentions were too obvious. Garfield anticipated this and immediately switched places with the "Nine-Lives Cat Demon"—but this suited Sara's intentions perfectly. She hadn't expected to kill Garfield so easily; her main purpose in attacking Garfield was to lure his magical spirit to his rescue. And then…

　Of course, we should kill him severely!

　The dark shadows, extending along the tentacles, had spread out to the feet of the "Nine-Lives Cat Demon".

　The tentacles almost immediately wrapped around its paws, tightly binding all four of its limbs.

　This time, the "Nine-Lives Cat Demon" could no longer easily tear off the tentacle. It struggled desperately and roared madly. But just as it broke off half of it, a black light came rushing towards it. Then everything went black, and a sharp pain struck. Three huge scratch marks appeared on its face.

　"Aww!"

　The "cat that returned from the underworld" struck swiftly, and the "nine-lived cat demon" was powerless to retaliate. It was killed cleanly and swiftly by the cat's frantic clawing!

　But it still has six tails, so this death is just the loss of one more tail, and it still has five lives.

　A moment later, the enormous "Cloud Cat" arrived, even more ferocious and faster than the "Nine-Lives Cat Demon." When it was still two or three meters away from the Nether Cat, it swung its claws and grabbed at the Nether Cat from a distance. The claws instantly grew to their maximum size and grabbed at the Nether Cat.

　"Sizzle!"

　The "cat that returned from the underworld" couldn't dodge in time and was scratched with a huge wound from its shoulder to its abdomen.

　But it paid no heed and, driven by Sarah, accelerated straight ahead, passing over the corpse of the "Nine Lives Cat Demon" that was resurrecting, and rushed toward Garfield behind it!

　The cloud cat moved through the air, and "Shadow Entanglement" had no effect on it. The "cat that returned from the underworld" could not control it either, and fighting it was futile.

　At this point, the best option is to withstand the attack from "Cloud Cat" and then attack Garfield.

　Sara drew a magic card from the Duel Disk and silently chanted the summoning command.

　"In the name of Sara Swati, a magical summoning—'Witch O Black Cat'!"

　In an instant, one after another, short-haired cats with jet-black fur emerged from the magic card.

　These black cats are slender, agile, and land silently.

　Half of them followed Sarah and rushed towards Garfield, while the other half charged towards the "Nine Lives Cat Demon".

　But Garfield couldn't just sit idly by and wait to die.

　He had already begun summoning while retreating, and now he had two more magical spirits by his side.

　One of them is a stone cat holding a stone stick, with a tall and robust body, standing upright on its two legs, like a stone sculpture.

　The second one is a fire cat engulfed in flames. It wears a straw hat and holds a staff. As soon as it appears, it begins to chant incantations, and blazing flames gather at the tip of its staff, emitting rings of firelight.

　Meanwhile, the "Cat Wine Master" had also arrived.

　These three cats with different attributes stand in a triangle, creating a synergy that greatly enhances their three main attributes and increases the power of their special moves.

　After summoning the two magical spirits, Garfield continued to summon more.

　"The Witch's Black Cat" rushed over first, but was swept away by a stick as soon as it got close to the stone cat. The part that was hit by the stone stick even showed signs of petrification.

　The cat that returned from the underworld paused briefly before turning to the fire cat on the other side.

　Suddenly, the fire cat raised its staff high and cried out. Several "fire resistance rings" were released from the tip of the staff, which pushed the "cat that returned from the underworld" backward by half a step!

　"Snapped!"

　The cat that returned from the underworld roared suddenly and plunged into the ring of fire, sending the fire cat flying!

　The tentacles of "Shadow Entanglement" continue to spread forward.

　The "Cat Wine Immortal" stood at the back, took a sip from its gourd, and then suddenly spat it out onto the ground. The wine turned into a raging fire as soon as it came out of its mouth, forcing the tentacles back.

　But the "cat that returned from the underworld" had already leaped over like lightning and pounced on Garfield.

　Garfield suddenly raised the magic card in his hand and shouted, "Grab it, Cat Chain!"

　A thick iron chain, as thick as a child's arm, suddenly emerged from the card and shot towards the Dark Cat like a snake.

　This "Cat Chain" was originally a magic card he used to link his own cat-like magical spirit, strengthen it, and share its will.

　It can be used to control berserk cats, as well as cats that have been taken away by bulls. However, if the opponent's magical spirit is also a cat, "Cat Chain" can also play the role of bull bull, seizing control of the opponent's cat.

　Garfield deliberately retreated, allowing Sarah to pursue him, so that at the moment she lowered her guard, he could use the anchor chain to repeat his old trick and seize control of the "cat that returned from the underworld"!

　But as the chain shot out, a black cat suddenly leaped down from the head of the "cat that returned from the underworld" and blocked the "anchor chain"!

　The next second, the "anchor chain took effect," transforming into a lasso that tightened around the black cat's neck.

　"Ah."

　Sarah couldn't help but chuckle softly.

　The cat, "returned from the underworld," which had not been controlled in the slightest, finally arrived before Garfield. What followed was the merciless crushing of the "cat fairy" by a super-nine-star magical spirit!

　Although Garfield was a "cat fairy," he didn't learn a thing about what a "fairy" should do.

　He was no match for the "cat that returned from the underworld" and was killed by the cat's paws in just a couple of moves.

　But the duel was far from over. Garfield had a third life!

　This constant cycle of death and resurrection gave the audience a feeling of eating, vomiting, and then eating again while watching the battle.

　Even die-hard fans who have been focused on duels for twelve years have never seen this type of duel before.

　While neither duelist utilized the graveyard to its fullest extent, it was still at a level never before seen by previous duelists.

　Although Sarah's use of the cemetery was entirely focused on the magical spirit "The Cat Returned from the Underworld".

　Garfield's use of the cemetery relied entirely on the "multiple lives" characteristic.

　But this is enough to make people feel surprised.

　Death, something so solemn, became like child's play in this duel, making it almost impossible to distinguish between life and death. Garfield completed his second resurrection in the "Graveyard" area; he only had one tail left, and if he died again, he would have no more.

　The Nine-Lives Cat Demon, with only five tails remaining, escaped the black cats' clutches and roared as it caught up with the "cat that returned from the underworld," and the two fought once more.

　Fighting alongside them are the "cloud cats" wielding enormous "cloud claws".

　However, the "Cat Returning from the Underworld" still held the upper hand despite fighting two opponents alone. Even when the "Nine-Lives Cat Demon" used the "Cloud Cat" to entangle the "Cat Returning from the Underworld" and released the "Life Orb" again, it still failed to inflict a devastating blow on the "Cat Returning from the Underworld".

　The key is that the "Life Jade" condenses too slowly, making it relatively easy to dodge. The "Cat Returning from the Underworld" was only grazed to the side and remained fearless.

　It was never afraid of death.

　This "fearlessness" advantage originally belonged to the "Nine-Lives Cat Demon." But now, an even more fearless cat has appeared.

　The "Nine-Lives Cat Demon" was driven to rage by impotence, its body constantly bearing new wounds, and its magic power dwindling.

　The Cloud Cat's physique made its wounds less noticeable. However, each time it was hit, its magic power would decrease, and it actually had very little magic power left.

　The "White Fox Cat Fairy" had somehow returned to Garfield's side. Having lost its white fox mask, it could only become Garfield's guard, serving as the last line of defense.

　The round switches again.

　Garfield stared intently at his hand, his face tense.

　He was completely out of his league in that level of combat. His advantage as a hunter was utterly gone at that moment.

　However, he is still a mage, and there is the possibility that he can change the course of the battle by using magic cards.

　“Sarah’s Sphinx cat cannot be killed; the only option is to control it and find an opening where Sarah herself is the target of the attack.”

　"But now that she's riding on the Sphinx, it's hard to hit her when the Sphinx has an absolute advantage in strength."

　"To attack her, we must first kill that Sphynx cat." "Even if the Sphynx cat can revive, there will still be enough time to focus fire during its revival."

　“Unless, she has other escape methods she hasn’t used yet…” Garfield felt extremely troubled by this thought.

　This was his biggest worry. Saraswati's methods were endless, and his control and resolution of the game were all superior to his.

　His only advantage was his own strength and the existence of the nine-star magical spirit. But now, both of those advantages are gone.

　Failing to finish the game at the start was a major mistake!

　The only way to deal with that "cat that returned from the underworld" is to kill it before it becomes too powerful.

　Ultimately, how could there be such a cheating magical spirit?

　Garfield seems to have forgotten that his past rivals have always accused him of cheating.

　The current situation is simply that the other party has a slightly bigger cheat code than him, but in reality, they are evenly matched, and neither side is criticizing the other.

　"Smack!"

　While he was desperately trying to come up with a solution, the "Nine-Lives Cat Demon" died again, leaving it with only three lives.

　Before the duel began, he could hardly have imagined that his "Nine-Lives Cat Demon" would be killed one life at a time like this.

　The "Nine-Lives Cat Demon," with only three tails remaining, was resurrected from the graveyard and roared as it charged back into the battlefield.

　But by then, the "cloud cat" could no longer hold on and was soon torn to shreds.

　Although "Cloud Cat" was created by "White Fox Cat Fairy" using the smoke from her pipe, it did not have the ability to be resurrected after death; once it died, it was gone.

　The "White Fox Cat Fairy" used half of her magic power to create it, and even if her ultimate skill's cooldown is over, she cannot create another one in this duel.

　Moreover, the cooldown of that ultimate move is extremely long.

　Without "Cloud Cat", "Nine-Lives Cat Demon" is no match for "Cat Returning from the Underworld".

　The rounds switched again.

　Garfield finally drew the crucial magic card – "Total Destruction"!

　"Total Destruction" is a special move that allows a specific magical spirit to self-destruct and injure the enemy during battle.

　He seized the opportunity to activate the "mutual destruction" strategy.

　The "Nine-Lives Cat Demon" suddenly entangled the "Cat Returning from the Underworld," and then a white light burst forth from its body, followed by a loud explosion!

　"BOOM!"

　The "mutual destruction" explosion was so massive that Sarah's act of riding on the back of the Dark Cat to avoid being attacked turned into a self-destructive move.

　But when Sarah and "The Cat Returned from the Underworld" were engulfed by the explosion at the same moment, Garfield did not hear the announcement that the duel was over.

　Sarah did not die as a result.

　At the last second, she rolled down and hid under the "cat that returned from the underworld," successfully summoning the second "coffin of lamentation" and hiding inside the coffin.

　The explosion killed the "Cat Returning from the Underworld" and shattered the "Coffin of Lamentation." The remaining power only injured Sarah, causing her to cough up blood. Although she was in a sorry state, she survived.

　She quickly summoned the three-star magical spirit "Anubis Hound" and used her ultimate move "Shadow Veil" to cover the area where she was located with shadows, thus escaping Garfield's further pursuit.

　Then, the "cat that returned from the underworld" emerged from the "cemetery" for the twelfth time!

　Having died and been resurrected twelve times, the "cat that returned from the underworld" has transformed into an extremely evil ghost. When it emerged from the "cemetery," its entire body was shrouded in billowing black smoke, making it impossible to discern its appearance.

　The aura of death was incredibly terrifying, inspiring fear in anyone who even looked at it. Garfield, being targeted by it, felt his scalp tingle even more.

　The Nine-Lives Cat Demon was also resurrected once again.

　But it was trampled underfoot by the "cat that returned from the underworld" as soon as it was resurrected, and could only howl in pain.

　A dignified nine-star magical spirit, now reduced to the size of a pig or a sheep. *Smack!*

　The "cat that returned from the underworld" crushed the head of the "nine-lived cat demon" with a single stomp.

　The "Nine-Lives Cat Demon" lost one of its last two tails, leaving it with only one life.

　After this resurrection, it once again released the "Mist of Concealment".
