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

　The background music suddenly stopped.

　[Devimon] evolved into "Devimon".

　For a moment, Chloe was puzzled, because in his mind, [[Devimon]] should have evolved into a nine-star magical spirit, not a six-star one.

　But this slight doubt did not affect his judgment of the battle. "Shadow Bird" was not over.

　With a flick of his finger, countless shadow birds pounced on "Demon Beast" and Dark.

　However, the magical shadow birds are not living beings. When countless shadow birds collide with a target, they explode, causing cumulative damage.

　But as the flock of shadow birds flew by, "Devimon" and Darkdemon vanished instantly.

　Chloe almost instantly detected the spatial fluctuation. He turned around abruptly and saw Dark and "Devimon" appearing not far behind him!

　"The Hand of Death!"

　The grinning "Little Devil" suddenly extended a demonic hand, unleashing a powerful, dark red energy beam from its palm. Before Chloe could react, it struck him!

　In that instant, Chloe was as if she were being held in a giant hand, unable to move at all.

　Dark continued to use the "Flying Spell" to fly through the air, his gaze sweeping over the entire arena. Chloe Artemis had only used two magic cards since the start of the match: "Thousand Mountains Needle Shadow" and "Shadow Bird".

　Both of these magic cards are spell cards. "Thousand Mountain Needle Shadow" has already been fully released and cannot be changed, while "Shadow Bird" is still being released. The Shadow Birds that missed their target are turning in this direction, albeit with a large amplitude, but they are definitely turning around.

　However, because Dark instantly teleported to the back, it would still take some time before they pounced.

　At this moment, Chloe should have been completely unprepared. As the year turned, he no longer hesitated and directly said to "Devimon," "Claw of Destruction!"

　Devimon's right hand continues to unleash "Death Hand," but it also has a left hand.

　It cackled, and its left claw shot out suddenly. "Claw of Destruction!"

　Instantly, a large number of "claws of death" emerged from the void in front of his palm, rapidly extending and shooting towards Chloe Artemis!

　The reversal of offense and defense happened in the blink of an eye.

　The audience had barely shifted their perspective when they discovered that Chloe Artemis was already in dire straits!

　Chloe is not the type of player with superhuman physical strength; his offense and defense are based on "magical combat techniques."

　At this time, magic power could not be mobilized.

　Building a defense is simply not enough to withstand Devimon's terrifying ultimate attack!

　However, in general, "instant teleportation" is indeed the best way to launch a surprise attack on "x" and switch between offense and defense.

　It's understandable that Chloe died from this attack.

　But while the audience outside the arena were thinking the same thing, a sly smile appeared on Chloe Artemis's lips.

　The next instant, his body was pierced by those "claws of death".

　However, no blood spurted out.

　The body, which was indistinguishable from the real one, blurred in an instant.

　Immediately afterwards, countless shadow tentacles burst out from inside that body, wrapping around "claws of death" and lunging at "Demon"!

　Chloe Artemis's counterattack came without warning. But it was clearly a trap that had been laid long ago.

　A careful review of Chloe Artemis's actions after the duel began reveals that he did not summon any magic cards at the start of the "battle phase".

　But that's incorrect.

　While using "Shadow Stalking" to infiltrate into the shadows, he also used "Normal Summoning".

　At that moment, what is usually summoned is the arcane card called "Shadow Hole".

　The [Shadow Hole] has two trigger conditions. One is that it absorbs enough shadow energy. The other is that you actively attack it.

　Once the first condition is met, the "Shadow Hole" can create a clone.

　In the legends associated with it, this clone usually comes from a traveler who was devoured by the "Shadow Hole".

　It creates clones of travelers, uses them as bait to lure their companions, or other life forms, and then devours them all!

　However, once refined into a Ritual Card, "Shadow Hole" can only devour opponents who actively attack it.

　Chloe Artemis never believed her shadow strike would kill Dark Dimon. She set a trap and went all in. Success would be good, but failure would mean turning the tables on Dark Dimon as he counterattacked!

　These are small, clever combat strategies belonging to the "Children of the Night." And they were very successful.

　In the midst of the tense and intense duel, Dark did not expect that Chloe would set a trap of this magnitude.

　Therefore, when he and "Devimon" used "Instant Teleport" to move behind Chloe, he launched two consecutive finishing moves at him. However, he did not expect that both finishing moves would land on the clone of "Shadow Hole"! The shadow tentacles that extended from the clone's body wrapped around "Death Claw" and then instantly merged together to form a giant mouth like fleshy petals, which swallowed "Devimon" whole. Then it wriggled and contracted, instantly pulling back to the location of the clone.

　"_——"

　In just a fleeting moment.

　The six-star magical spirit, "Devimon," was captured by the "Shadow Devourer's Lair"!

　Above the needle tip where the replica was located, a black shadow cave with tentacles growing along its edges appeared.

　After being swallowed by the tentacles, "Devimon" was pulled into the shadow cave, which then suddenly closed, leaving only a small black vortex.

　"Devimon" is not dead yet.

　But it is now completely locked, which is no different from being dead.

　Moreover, its magic is rapidly diminishing.

　Once it is completely digested by the "Shadow Hole", the hole will open again and create a new copy – in the form of "Devimon".

　During this period, the connection between Devimon and Dark was also severed.

　Even if one wanted to offer it as a sacrifice, it would be completely impossible.

　Dark suddenly used the "Flight Charm" to fly into the sky, creating distance between himself and the "Shadow Hole".

　At this moment, he only had one "Flying Spell" card in use, one "Misty Field (Elysium)" card with no target, one "Fake Out" card that had already been used, and two Level 6 Magical Spirit cards that could not be Normal Summoned.

　In other words, there are no more usable cards.

　However, this situation is very normal and easy for a mage to encounter.

　He hadn't encountered this situation all day; he was just having a lucky streak. And how to deal with this situation has always been a key topic in the "Duel Course."

　However, Dark didn't need to think about this too much at this moment. Because the turn had already changed!

　After quickly grasping the current situation, he immediately drew two new magic cards from the top of his deck.

　Then I looked up suddenly!

　v

　【Single Sword Sheath (Weapon Form)】

　【Dream Demon】

　The intention behind adding this magic card to the deck is very clear.

　After confirming, Dark immediately chose to summon [Single Sword Sheath (Weapon Form)]!

　at this time.

　While acquiring "Dream Fairy" is crucial, he must also contend with Chloe Artemis's relentless onslaught!

　Summon the [Single Sword Sheath (Weapon Form)] to instantly enhance your combat power!

　Otherwise, simply flying in the air wouldn't be enough to evade Chloe's subsequent attacks.

　Flying in the air is like creating distance; it simply gives you at least some time to react if Chloe attacks you.

　But Chloe will still attack!

　The "single sword sheath" quickly materialized in his palm, and Dark stared intently at the ground.

　Chloe remained hidden in the shadows, never revealing herself since infiltrating.

　But at this point, "Demon" had already been devoured by "Shadow Hole," and it was impossible for him to continue hiding.

　"It's about time!" The thought had barely crossed his mind when it crossed his mind.

　Dark noticed a shadow on a needle-like mountain near the "Shadow Eater's Hole," which seemed to be stirring slightly.

　then.

　The shadow suddenly detached from the side of Needle Mountain, and in an instant, it changed from being extremely thin to being as wide as a person.

　Immediately afterwards, the shadow that formed the outline of a human body suddenly shot out towards Dark!

　As the shadow shot out, the blackness on its surface rapidly peeled away, gradually revealing Chloe Artemis's body and the dark magic that clung to him!

　Chloe used "magic combat techniques," unleashing magic from all parts of her body to forcefully propel herself into the sky.

　In his right hand, he held a magic card that emitted an extremely strong black light!

　"Weapon curse or magical spirit?"

　Dark's mind raced, and the "qi" within his body also began to circulate rapidly along with his thoughts.

　He cannot use magic to enhance himself like Chloe. However, he has already opened up to the fourth meridian, which is above average in the warrior system. With proper cultivation, he can also enhance various parts of his body to a considerable extent.

　Add to that the "Holy Sword" in my hand... "Armed Moonshadow!"

　A soft murmur suddenly reached my ears.

　Dark's eyes widened suddenly, and he flew backward at an even faster speed.

　Chloe Artemis has summoned an "Armed Card" at this very moment!

　The fighting style of the "Children of the Night" is indeed very similar to that of the "Scorpio" battle maid in the Zodiac!

　Chloe has yet to summon any magical spirits.

　The "armor card" in his hand released an extremely strong lunar aura after it was activated!

　Dark was naturally very familiar with this scent.

　This is not only because he often transforms into the "Moon Goddess," but also because he possesses an "Ice Moon Elf"!

　The transformation process of the "Sun Elf" and the "Ice Moon Elf" was extremely slow. His two elemental spirits spent most of their time in slumber. But awakening them was only a matter of a thought. However, unlike Aurora, he hadn't learned how to use elemental spirits. Therefore, even if he awakened them, they could only serve as "enchantments"—a similar function.

　Although he has the qualifications to become a Spirit Master, he is not yet a qualified Spirit Master.

　As planned, he intended to cultivate the "Sun Elf" and "Ice Moon Elf" into "Sun Elf" and "Moon Elf" before beginning his studies to become an Elf Master.

　After all, the additional elements of fire and ice weren't particularly compatible with him. Only by removing those two elements would his elven training proceed more smoothly. And for now, all he could rely on was the [Holy Sword] in his hand!

　"Holy Sword!"

　Dark unconsciously gripped the hilt of the "single sword sheath".

　Chloe's "Armed Moonshadow" outfit was donned incredibly fast. It was as if she had used a costume change card; almost instantly, she was covered in a dark shadow, which materialized layer upon layer, making her appear as if she were wrapped in black armor. The shadow energy, like bandages, tangled and materialized in her hands, instantly transforming into two black short swords.

　Chloe's "Magic Combat Technique" combined with "Armed Moon Shadow" transformed him into an extremely terrifying Moon Warrior in an instant.

　If he were in the Moonlit Realm, his armor would receive an even greater boost. But even during the day, his combat power is still significantly amplified.

　He seemed to be flying through the air, rapidly changing direction to follow Dark's flight path and constantly closing the distance.

　The distance between them, which was not short, seemed to shrink in the blink of an eye. Dark suddenly used "Gathering Qi," concentrating his mind and channeling the energy within his body into the sword in his hand.

　He knew that at this moment, he had to rely on his own individual strength and the "Holy Sword" in his hand!

　As the distance between the two sides grew closer and closer.

　The wind in the air seemed to have stopped. The two contestants locked eyes.

　The audience and commentators all held their breath and stared intently.

　Everyone knew that the moment that would decide the outcome of this duel was now.

　Will Chloe Artemis decisively defeat Darkdemon, or will Darkdemon survive this round and prolong the duel?

　"boom!"

　As if the thought had barely crossed their minds, their weapons collided in mid-air.
