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

　Even though BlackGatomon managed to parry in time, it was still blasted away along with its sword by "Blood Moon Werewolf".

　However, it did a somersault in the air to dissipate the force and landed successfully. Although it slid backward for several meters, it was not seriously injured.

　However, with a smirk, it still knew the gap between the two sides.

　This made it reluctantly touch the "single sword sheath" in its hand, and then suddenly throw it into the sky.

　The "Leomon" that appeared in the sacrificial summoning circle reached out and grabbed the hilt of the "Holy Sword" before landing on the ground, exuding a majestic and awe-inspiring presence.

　However, Dark finally completed the sacrificial summoning, using "Kugu" and "Magical Book" as offerings to summon the five-star magical spirit - "Leomon"!

　……

　The moment Leomon acquired the "Single Sword Sheath," his aura changed, and his attack power rose to 3800 points.

　It reached out and swung its sword, creating a flourish, and the "Heart of Justice" suddenly lit up.

　The sacred power within the "single sword sheath" resonated with his soul, a sword cry soared into the sky, and a sacred light burst forth, tearing half of the "dark red sky" above his head, allowing the sunlight to shine down again.

　The lion beast raised the holy sword high, and its divine light flashed continuously.

　The "Corpse Curse" was as thin as paper before this holy light, and was dispelled without any hindrance.

　The "single sword sheath" immediately returned to its original state, emitting a soft hum, which was quite pleasant.

　The "Blood Moon Werewolf," bathed in the holy light, couldn't help but squint.

　Just like its owner's expression at that moment.

Chapter 401 Darkdemon's Victory Puzzle (39/233)

　This is not the first time Dark Dimon has activated the sacred properties of "Single Sheath" during the Easter Duel Festival.

　For Tom Nixon, whose initial goal was to win, it was impossible that he hadn't carefully observed Dark's matches.

　It was precisely because he had observed it that Tom Nixon became wary of it and immediately used the "Corpse Rot Curse" of the "Corpse Rot Slime" to weaken it.

　However, it appears that the "corpse decay curse" has been broken.

　The sword had also been restored to its full strength.

　The reasons for this can perhaps be discovered upon closer examination.

　But Tom Nixon doesn't have that time right now.

　He only realized that there was probably a special synergy between the lion beast and the single sword sheath, which could trigger some of the single sword sheath's properties.

　It was that very characteristic that broke the "corpse decay curse".

　Furthermore, the five-star magical spirit "Lionmon," wielding the "single sword sheath," likely already possesses the power to contend with his "Blood Moon Werewolf."

　However, we'll only know for sure after trying it.

　If we really can't handle it, then we'll have to resort to that one trick!

　……

　Tom Nixon was unaware that the Blood Moon Werewolf showed a hint of pain on his face when the holy light shone upon him.

　But even if he realized it, he wouldn't change his actions.

　"Blood Moon Werewolf, charge!"

　Upon receiving the order, the "Blood Moon Werewolf," positioned at the center of the field, exerted force with its feet and burst forth instantly!

　After seeing the Blood Moon Werewolf's actions, Leomon simply swung the "Single Sword Sheath" downwards and charged forward from the front.

　The Blood Moon Werewolf has the Wings of Evil Souls for a speed boost, making it extremely fast.

　Although Leomon was not slow, it was ultimately slightly inferior.

　The two sides collided suddenly in a position closer to the red team's summoning zone.

　The lion beast raised its sword and slashed at the target with all its might, but the "Blood Moon Werewolf" suddenly flapped its wings and flew high, dodging the attack. Its two steel-like wolf claws fiercely grabbed at the top of the lion beast's head!

　"Roar!"

　In that instant, the lion roared, and holy light flowed from the blade of the "single sword sheath" into its body, bursting forth suddenly!

　The Blood Moon Werewolf's claws were illuminated by the light at extremely close range, and its hands instantly became scorching hot, as if they were about to melt. Even its sharp nails softened.

　Its body was thus rendered immobile in mid-air.

　The lion beast did not stop at all, and with a backhand slash, it slashed upwards with its sword, fiercely aiming at the chest and abdomen of the "Blood Moon Werewolf".

　But the Blood Moon Werewolf almost instinctively slapped at the sword with its claws. Before the Single Sword Sheath could unleash its power, it took off and hastily fled into the air.

　The lion beast gave a soft snort, sheathed its sword, and looked up with a righteous and awe-inspiring gaze at the "Blood Moon Werewolf" that was rapidly flapping its wings in mid-air.

　If the "Blood Moon Werewolf" hadn't reacted quickly enough, it would have been instantly killed by its sword.

　The lion had a feeling.

　This seemingly incredibly powerful demonic wolf might not be able to withstand a single sword strike from him.

　The "Holy Sword," imbued with divine properties, possesses an extremely terrifying ability to counter dark-attribute demons like the "Blood Moon Werewolf."

　Therefore, only one sword is needed!

　……

　"what happened?"

　On the blue team's platform, Tom Nixon's pupils constricted, revealing an expression of disbelief.

　He wasn't shocked by the Leo's power, but rather surprised by the Blood Moon Werewolf's retreat.

　The Blood Moon Werewolf transforms under the "Covering Moon." While it doesn't lose its rationality as when using "Blood Rage," it still unleashes its ferocity, causing it to unleash its bloodthirsty instincts.

　When faced with an enemy, it will fight to the death and never retreat.

　But just now, the "Blood Moon Werewolf" was genuinely frightened away, and it was now clearly somewhat hesitant as it flew through the air.

　"Is it that sword? Or is there something wrong with that lion?"

　Tom Nixon's eyes flickered, and he made his decision the instant he reached for the cards.

　"Use the Parasitic Demon Seed!"

　……

　The duel has entered its ninth round.

　……

　Under Tom Nixon's forced command, the "Blood Moon Werewolf" pounced on the Lion Beast.

　Tom Nixon, who had already realized the situation was dire, made an emergency summons.

　The ninth round of card draws made him even more anxious.

　……

　"Parasitic Demon Seed?"

　The moment Dark heard the name of this ultimate attack, he suddenly had a bad feeling. He placed his hand on his deck, and before he could even draw the card, he immediately warned, "Leomon, watch out!"

　However, the "Blood Moon Werewolf" had already pounced down.

　The lion beast tilted its head slightly, meeting the blood-red eyes of the "Blood Moon Werewolf" directly.

　The Blood Moon Werewolf's previous behavior gave Leomon the illusion that it also possessed intelligence.

　But at this moment, it met the "Blood Moon Werewolf's" gaze directly into its eyes, and saw only what came from its instincts.

　Madness and bloodlust, and... a little bit of fear!

　The lion beast hesitated for a moment, then wielded its "single sword sheath" with ease, slashing fiercely at the "blood moon werewolf's" claws.

　The Blood Moon Werewolf suddenly extended its left claw, finally revealing its bloodthirstiness this time. Staring at the corrosive holy light, it grabbed the blade of the monocle sheath. Then, its right claw shot out like lightning, grabbing at the lion beast's face.

　The lion-beast's eyes were fixed, its cat-like lips tightly closed. Its right wrist, holding the sword, suddenly rotated, twisting the blade of the single-scabbard at an angle. With a final burst of force, it cleaved the "Blood Moon Werewolf's" left claw from its palm, and then followed up with a diagonal slash—severing the "Blood Moon Werewolf's" right arm from its elbow when the claw was still a claw's distance from the lion-beast.

　The two sides attacked and defended extremely quickly.

　In the blink of an eye, the Blood Moon Werewolf's claws were crippled by the Lion Beast.

　The lion beast remained calm as it continued to slash at the "Blood Moon Werewolf's" waist and abdomen.

　A flash of white light appeared, and the "Blood Moon Werewolf's" body was instantly sliced ​​open from the waist down, without any pause.

　The "Blood Moon Werewolf," whose base stats were comparable to those of a Seven-Star Magical Elf, was completely extinguished after this horizontal slash.

　But Leomon suddenly felt a chill on his left cheek and instinctively raised his hand to grab it, only to grab a patch of blood!

　He held out his bloodied left hand in front of him and frowned sharply: When was he shot?

　……

　"That's one of the hero candidates—Leomon?"

　Prince Charles's expression gradually turned serious.

　Leomon demonstrated the resonance between "Hero" and "Holy Sword" on the spot, finally convincing him that such a thing existed.

　Moreover, the temperament displayed by this magical spirit is indeed very similar to that of a "hero".

　The only problem is probably its properties.

　Leomon is a Fighting-type, not a Light-type.

　This greatly reduces the likelihood of it becoming a true hero.

　Moreover, the eldest prince simply couldn't figure out how a magical elf could gradually replenish its bloodline through the Holy Sword and become a true hero.

　Ultimately, how is it possible to create a magical spirit with the potential to become a hero?

　If the blond boy on the field wasn't the Valkyrie's only son, he would definitely go to great lengths to find out the reason.

　But he happens to be the son of the Valkyrie!

　In that case, the number of available methods would be greatly reduced.

　……

　And the other side.
