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

　Under normal circumstances, he should have ordered the "Bloodwing Dragonman" to take off and avoid being attacked from both sides by the two four-star magic spirits.

　But he was Tom Nixon.

　Amidst this crisis, the "Bloodwing Dragonman" seemed to resonate with him, its entire body surging and boiling with blood mist.

　It stomped down suddenly, kicking the Shuckle that had lost the effect of "Power Trick" away, and then pounced on the nearest "Euphore" like a madman.

　Espeon's gaze was arrogant, and the gem on its forehead shone brightly as it prepared to use its psychic powers.

　But Dark's order came instantly.

　"SunEevee, foresee the future!"

　It did not hesitate to change its skills and use "foresight".

　And when it finished casting, the "Bloodwing Dragonman" had already closed in.

　Approaching.

　But it remained completely calm, instantly activating its "psychic power" and...

　The dragon claws came swinging out.

　The Bloodwing Dragonman's claws hang naturally down to his knees, and when swung, they are extremely lethal.

　However, Espeon is not a magical Pokémon that would "go head-to-head" with it.

　Using "telekinesis" to deflect the "Bloodwing Dragonman's" dragon claws

　After it opened, Espeon immediately leaped to the side, and upon landing, it turned around and ran towards Gatomon.

　The "Bloodwing Dragonman" let out a furious roar, instantly twisting its body, revealing a thick dragon tail.

　It swung out hard, and the shadow of its tail tip was reflected on Espeon.

　Espeon, whose gaze was completely off the "Bloodwing Dragonman," seemed to have eyes in the back of its head, and the moment the dragon's tail swept towards it, it leaped high into the air with all four limbs flying.

　The fierce dragon tail swept past its feet.

　It landed lightly and continued on its way with graceful movements.

　That calmness and composure, like the blond-haired boy on the red team's stage, naturally evokes a sense of goodwill.

　The "Bloodwing Dragonman" failed again and immediately took off to catch up.

　In its "Blood Rage" state, it is faster than Espeon.

　But the opposite Black Gatomon also rushed over, and in an instant crossed paths with Espeon, wielding "Holy Sword" to slash at the "Bloodwing Dragonman".

　It has a bit of a "hero slaying dragon" feel to it.

　……

　that's it.

　Espeon and Gatomon have completed their strategic exchange.

　BlackGatomon excitedly brandished its "Holy Sword" and fought fiercely with the ferocious and bloodthirsty dragonman.

　Espeon suddenly gathered its "Psychic" and shot it towards the blue Magic Ball in the air.

　→The same old trick!

　……

　“I’m not Stewart.”

　But on the blue team's platform, Tom Nixon let out a cold laugh.

　His next magical summoning is complete.

　On that "blood platform" stood two magical elves.

　This time, he will use these two magical spirits as sacrifices to perform a sacrificial summoning!

　Unlike Stuart Fern's level, Tom Nixon's Sacrifice Summoning spell, while not quite reaching the three-second limit, was close—he only needed five seconds to complete the Sacrifice Summoning spell!

　Five seconds is actually a very short time.

　Even in the midst of a fierce magical duel where every second counts, the two three-star magical spirits that have already been successfully summoned can easily secure the victory.

　Moreover, one of the two three-star magical spirits he summoned was a defensively specialized "Death Guardian"!

　Card Name: Death Guard

　[Type: Spirit Card]

　【grade:】

　[Race: Undead]

　[Attribute: Dark]

　【Magic Power: 1000】

　[Attack: 0]

　[Defense: 1250]

　Ultimate Skill: Death Guardian

　This is an extremely special magical spirit.

　Its entire body is just a leg bone of some unknown creature.

　But this leg bone was as thick as a bucket and about two meters high. It had no feet underneath, but instead had black, sticky substances that looked like tentacles.

　The pale leg bone was carved with extremely complex black patterns, making it look like a "totem pole" that was quite common in orc tribes.

　But on top of this white bone totem pole, there is the same black, sticky substance as below, and within that substance are two eyes that jut out like snails.

　This is the "Death Guard".

　Its movement speed is practically zero, it has no attack capabilities, its magic power is only 1000 points, and its defense is only 1250 points, less than 1500.

　Even its ultimate move is only one.

　But it is this one and only ultimate skill that gives "Death Guard" powerful defensive capabilities.

　As Espeon's psychic energy shot up like an arrow, Deathguard, under Tom Nixon's command, immediately unleashed its only finishing move—"Deathguard"!

　So, with it as the center, layer upon layer of transparent barriers spread outwards, forming a huge barrier made up of countless polygons, keeping the "psychic power" out.

　The only effect that "Death Guardian" has is "damage halved"!

　Moreover, it is the passive skill of "Death Guardian," a permanent ultimate skill with no cost.

　Its strength is based on the defensive capabilities of the "Death Guard".

　This means that any attack with a power of no more than 2500 points will be completely ineffective against it.

　Espeon's "Psychic" is actually a very weak finishing move. Even with the amplification of the Sun's power, it is difficult to exceed the threshold of "Die Guard".

　Such a powerful, defensively specialized magical spirit is practically a super guardian protecting the Magic Orb.

　If it were Dark, it would most likely be put to good use and not immediately sacrificed.

　However, Tom Nixon showed absolutely no regret.

　After "Death Guard" merely blocked a single psychic attack, he used it as a sacrifice for the summoning ritual.

　When the Death Guard was sacrificed, Dark couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

　However, that was after the turn switch.

　Amidst the screams of the "Bloodwing Dragonman," the duel entered its seventh round.

　……

　[Battle Phase (7)][30s]

　Tom Nixon was still making his final call.

　Dark then took the two Magic Cards for this round from the top of the deck and put them into his hand.

　then.

　Tom Nixon successfully completed the sacrificial summoning spell.

　The two three-star magical spirits on the "Blood Platform" turned into light.

　A massive sacrificial summoning circle unfolded in the air.

　There were no more magical sprites belonging to Tom Nixon in the arena.

　But a smile appeared on his lips.

　……

　[10000/12000]

　I'll update another 4-8000 words before noon tomorrow.

Chapter 400 Darkdemon Summons the Hero (38/233)

　The common logic of sacrifice summoning is to exchange a large number of low-star magical spirits for a small number of high-star magical spirits.

　Most mages pursue high quality rather than high quantity in magic duels.

　The same goes for Tom Nixon.

　Therefore, when he successfully completed the sacrificial summoning spell, he did not feel anything amiss about the fact that there were no other magical spirits in his field.

　He raised his head slightly, looking at the six-star magical spirit materialized from the huge sacrificial summoning circle, and listened to the thunderous cheers from the audience outside the arena. He even felt excited.

　What does it feel like to successfully summon a high-star magical spirit that can secure victory in a magical duel?

　That's probably how it is.

　……

　"Ouch——"

　It was like a mournful wolf howl emanating from a dark forest.

　A blood-red demonic wolf, over three meters tall, took shape amidst dark red demonic light.

　As it made its entrance, it spread its arms, stood upright, and let out a mournful roar towards the sky.

　Bloodlust emanated from his crimson eyes.

　Its slightly thin physique only made it look more brutal.

　A wisp of blood-red cloud rose into the sky.

　Card Name: Blood Moon Demon Wolf

　[Type: Spirit Card]

　【grade:】

　[Race: Demon]

　[Attribute: Dark]

　【Magic Power: 2500】

　[Attack: 3000]

　[Defense: 2400]

　Ultimate Skills: Bloodlust, Moonlit Sky, Parasitic Demon Seed

　A six-star orange card with three ultimate skills—this is Tom Nixon's proud trump card.

　With a terrifying attack power of up to 3000 points, a respectable defense of 2400 points, and a high magic power of 2500, this "Blood Moon Demon Wolf" can dominate among six-star magical spirits even with just its basic attributes.

　After successfully summoning the "Blood Moon Wolf," Tom Nixon slammed his hand on the card table, his voice rising to an all-time high: "Use the ultimate move—Moon Over the Sky!"

　The howl of the "Blood Moon Wolf" grew even more intense, echoing throughout the arena as if it were about to pierce through the clouds.
