Yu-Gi-Oh! Fourseasons

"Now, the second semi-final begins!" The two teams entered the arena amidst the referee's excited voice.

"That's—" You Dong, who was in the audience, saw the man in black robes coming out from the right passage and instantly remembered the man who had cursed him and then run away this morning.

"Duel!" x2

Upon hearing the voice of the man in black, You Dong was certain that it was the same man in black who had insulted him that morning!

Opponent: "First strike is mine. My turn."

"I set a monster face down, end of turn."

The opponent has 3 cards in hand, 1 in front row, 0 in back row, 8000 Life Points, 0 in Graveyard, and 0 banished cards.

Black-robed man: "My turn, draw a card!"

"I usually summon [FA Fallen Angel Synchron]"

Yu Dong, sitting in the audience, thought to himself, "[FA] deck? Could he also be a Dark Duelist?" But Yu Dong immediately dismissed the idea, "No, it's probably just that they have the same deck."

……

"Advanced Battle Rank! [Fallen Angel Synchron] Attack"

The opponent flipped their face-down card—[Legendary White Stone]!

You Dong's lips twitched as he recalled an unpleasant memory—once, during a duel with a player using a [Blue-Eyes] deck, he finally managed to knock down the opponent's [Blue-Eyes White Dragon] with [Ice Spear King], but then, due to a lack of understanding of its effect, he let [Winter Dragon] attack [Blue-Eyes Girl], which ended up pulling the [Blue-Eyes White Dragon] back after all that effort to remove it.

……

"[Legendary White Stone]'s effect activates, adding one [Blue-Eyes White Dragon] from your deck to your hand." As [Legendary White Stone] is destroyed, your opponent draws a card from their deck.

The man in black robes: "It doesn't matter anymore, round over."

The opponent has 3 cards in hand, 0 in front row, 0 in back row, 8000 Life Points, 1 in Graveyard, and 0 banished cards.

Black Robe: 4 in hand, 1 in front row, 0 in back row, 8000 Life Points, 0 in graveyard, 0 banished.

Opponent: "My turn, draw a card!"

"I activate the Spell Card [Fusion Sage] from my hand, and add one [Fusion] from my Deck to my hand."

"I activate the effect of [Blue-Eyes White Dragon] in my hand, reveal [Blue-Eyes White Dragon] in my hand to my opponent, and Special Summon this monster from my hand!"

"My new servant! [Blue-Eyes White Dragon]!"

"Roar—" With a dragon's roar, a giant white dragon appeared on the field!

"Immediately afterward, I activated the Spell Card [Fusion] from my hand to fuse the two [Blue-Eyes White Dragons] in my hand! Fusion Summon! [Blue-Eyes Double Burst Dragon]!"

"Roar--"

"Roar--"

Two more dragon roars echoed, and the two large heads of the [Blue-Eyes Twin Burst Dragon] exchanged a glance.

"Advance to the combat tier!"

"[Blue-Eyes White Dragon] Attacks [Fallen Angel Synchron]!"

The man in black robes remained calm: "I activate the Quick-Play Spell Card [Fallen Sanctuary] from my hand, negating one attack. However, one LIGHT monster or Fairy monster with 2500 or less ATK on your opponent's field can attack twice this turn—but you don't have a card on your field that meets this condition, so I can negate your attack without any cost."

The opponent waved his hand dismissively: "Then [Blue-Eyes Twin Burst Dragon] will attack [Fallen Angel Synchron]!"

[Blue-Eyes Twin Burst Dragon] spewed out a burst of white light, kicking up a cloud of dust!

As the dust settled, the black-robed man's base score had only decreased by 500!

"What?!" The other person was confused.

The man in black explained, "The instant you attacked me, I activated the effect of [Fallen Angel Synchron]—as long as this monster is on the field, the damage dealt to me by my opponent when attacking Fallen Angel monsters on my field is halved."

Opponent: "Boring death throes! Round over."

The opponent has 3 cards in hand, 2 in front row, 0 in back row, 8000 Life Points, 5 in Graveyard, and 0 banished cards.

Black Robe: 3 in hand, 0 in front row, 0 in back row, 7500 Life Points, 2 in graveyard, 0 banished.

Black-robed man: "My turn, draw a card!"

"I activate the Eternal Spell Card [Fallen Contract] from my hand once per turn, pay 1000 Life Points, and add one [FA] monster from my Deck to my hand; the one I want to add to my hand is [FA Satan]."

[FA Satan], Attribute: DARK, Level 12, Effect Monster, Fallen Angel Type, ATK: 0, DEF: 2500.

"I will Normal Summon [Satan], which I just added to my hand." The man in black placed the card he had just drawn from his deck onto the Duel Disk.

"What? A level 12 monster doesn't need a sacrifice?" The other party wished that his [Blue-Eyes White Dragon] didn't need a sacrifice either.

The man in black explained, "Because of [Satan's] effect, this monster can be summoned without offerings."

"At the same time, the second effect of [Satan] is activated, adding one [FA Beelzebub] from the deck to the hand."

[FA Beelzebub], Attribute: DARK, Level 3, Effect/Tuner Monster, Fallen Angel Type, ATK 1000, DEF 1500.

"I activate the effect of [Beelzebub] in my hand. When there is a Level 10 or higher [FA] monster on the field, I Special Summon this monster from my hand."

"I activate the effect of [Fallen Contract] again, pay 1000 Life Points, and Special Summon 1 Level 4 or lower [FA] monster from my hand or Graveyard by negating its effects."

"I specially summon [Fallen Angel Synchron]."

"I will summon two Dark Stars: a Level 3 [Beelzebub], a Level 3 [Fallen Angel Synchron], and a Level 12 [Satan]!"

As soon as he uttered those words, wisps of black energy rushed towards the arena from all directions!

"What is this? A special effect from the Duel Disk?" Most of the audience members couldn't understand the black aura.

"This is—" Having experienced the Dark Duel, You Dong sensed something was wrong. "Oh no! The Dark Duel!"

You Dong jumped down from the audience seats with a "whoosh," unfolded his duel disk, and ran towards the competition venue!

Seeing this, the referee shouted, "The player who has already qualified, please stop! Otherwise, we will disqualify you!"

You Dong turned around and shouted, "People are about to die! I don't have time to worry about that!"

Seeing You Dong rushing over, the man in black said, "I'll deal with you later. I want to enjoy the duel properly."

As soon as he finished speaking, a small portion of the black energy changed direction and surged into You Dong's duel disk.

The Duel Disk, which had been opened, closed again!

"What's going on?" You Dong tried to pry the duel disk open, but couldn't budge it at all.

Seeing that no one was disturbing him, the man in black robes continued the synchronized summoning:

"Dark Synchro! Rank 6! [FA Weapon Fallen Angel]!"

Beelzebub and the Fallen Angel Synchrons transformed into specks of light that flowed into Satan's body, making Satan transparent.

Suddenly, the black energy surged into [Satan]'s body like madmen, swallowing up the specks of light!

"The light... has disappeared... and the level of the Synchro Summoned is even lower than before..." Yu Dong muttered to himself.

"boom!"

With a [Satan] explosion, a semi-mechanized fallen angel appeared on the field!

[FA Weapon Fallen Angel], Attribute: DARK, Level 6, Effect/Synchron Monster, Fallen Angel Type, ATK 2700, DEF 0.

"I activate the effect of [Weapon Fallen Angel] once per turn, destroying one card on my opponent's field. My opponent can banish all cards in their hand and the top ten cards of their deck to negate this effect."

"I'm going to destroy your [Blue-Eyes Twin Burst Dragon]!"

"Come on! Choose! Your own Tamash or sustainable development for the future!"

The opponent shouted, "Is that even a question?! I definitely want my Tamashii! I'll negate this effect by using all the cards in my hand and the top ten cards of my deck!"

As he spoke, the other party drew ten cards from the top of the deck and casually scattered them!

The man in black robes glanced at the cards on the ground and sneered, "The remaining [Blue-Eyes White Dragon] and two [Blue-Eyes Sub-White Dragon] have been banished!"

The other party said, "But the attack power of your monster is still not as good as [Blue-Eyes Double Burst Dragon] and [Blue-Eyes White Dragon]!"

The man in black robes:

"What a burden! How many more are there?!"

"I activate the effect of [Fallen Contract], pay 1000 Life Points, and Special Summon [Fallen Angel Synchron] from my Graveyard."

Because of the start of the Dark Duel, the black-robed man coughed up blood with just 1000 base points!

"I will activate the effect of [Fallen Contract] again, paying 1000 Life Points to raise the Level of one Tuner [FA] monster on the field by one. I will raise [Fallen Angel Synchron] by one."

A faint, almost imperceptible sound rang out—the black-robed man's eardrums ruptured! Blood slowly flowed from his ears!

"I'm activating this effect once more! [Fallen Angel Synchron], level up to 5!"

The same scene played out again, and this time the man in black was completely deaf.

"I will become a Level 5 [Fallen Angel Synchron] and a Level 6 [Weapon Fallen Angel] Dark Synchron!"

This time, the [Fallen Angel Synchron] did not turn into a speck of light, but instead transformed directly into a small black sphere, actively absorbing the black energy from all directions!

"King from the abyss, wield your blood-stained sword and slaughter all mankind!"

Having absorbed a large amount of black energy, the small black sphere has now turned around and enveloped the [Weapon Fallen Angel]!

"Dark Synchro! Level 1! [FA Lucifer]!"

With a "crack," the blood-red blade pierced out of the black sphere, and then the entire black sphere was covered with cracks and shattered!

A young man with white hair and bloodshot eyes emerged from the black sphere! He held a blood-red short sword in his hand! Behind him, twelve pairs of wings were as black as ink!

[FA Lucifer], Attribute: DARK, Level 1, Effect/Synchron Monster, Fallen Angel Type, ATK 3000, DEF 3000.

The opponent said, "Even so, [Lucifer]'s attack power is still the same as the two monsters on my field!"

The man in black ignored him and said to himself, "I activate the effect of [Lucifer]. When this monster is successfully Synchro Summoned, its ATK increases by 2000!"

"Nani?!"

Lucifer's body grew rapidly, quickly breaking through the shop's ceiling!

"How did the monster materialize?!" Everyone present was both shocked and terrified!

"Advance to Battle Rank! [Lucifer] Attack [Blue-Eyes Twin Burst Dragon]!"

"No!" As the [Blue-Eyes Twin Burst Dragon] was destroyed, the opponent suffered 2000 damage, and many bloodstains appeared on its body out of nowhere!

"I activate the effect of [Lucifer] four times per turn. When this monster destroys a monster by battle, it can attack once more!"

"impossible!"

"[Blue-Eyes White Dragon], become a victim of [Lucifer's] sword!"

[Blue-Eyes White Dragon] let out a final dragon roar and fell down unwillingly!

"How could this happen?!" The other person covered their mouth, but blood still flowed from between their fingers!

"In that instant, [Lucifer]'s effect activated once more! Become nourishment for that guy! [Lucifer] attacks directly!"

[Lucifer] slowly raised the short sword in his hand, pointed it at the opponent, and the opponent was instantly cut into several pieces!

Before the blood could flow out, the chunks of flesh were swallowed up by the surrounding black mist!

During this process, You Dong, who was standing nearby, seemed to hear the sound of chewing food!

Seeing the other being swallowed by the black mist, the man in black robes took out a card—

From the two-thirds of the card's normal appearance, it can be seen that this is a Synchro Monster, but the effect column is completely blank, and the top third is shrouded in a layer of black mist, making it impossible to see anything.

A smile appeared on the lips of the man in black robes as he muttered to himself, "Almost there, just a little more—once I kill him, you should be able to come back, right?" As he spoke, the man in black robes looked at You Dong.
