Yu-Gi-Oh!: Phobic Peptide Mad Dragon Executioner Dragon

(The hole has been dug enough, time to play cards honestly)

"I'm so nervous, what if we lose? Should I revise the deck again? I feel like I can practice with a teacher again..."

Inside the lounge of the Orses Duel Academy, Nick kept muttering to himself, his anxiety written all over his face.

"No, Gomen, you're not the first one to go on stage, what's the rush?"

Mente complained, but his constant card-cutting revealed that he was also very flustered.

They were the third and fourth to appear, respectively.

Lan was the first to appear, Tiger was the second, and Klaus was the last.

Theoretically, if Lan could defeat five opponents single-handedly, they wouldn't need to play, but that's obviously unrealistic.

Their opponents today are the North Duel Academy from the north of Enmato. According to information from previous years, their decks will include [Polar Bear] and [Shadow (Odd Fish)], but the remaining three decks are unknown.

Because they were unsure of the opponent's exact strength this year, they sent Lan, who had a "playing dumb" mentality, to probe first.

At this moment, Xing Liang and the instructor leading the North Duel Academy were standing in the center of the dueling platform, deciding by rolling dice which academy would choose the order of attack.

Opposite is 3, Xing Liang is 6.

Needless to say? Bao should attack first (from the grumbling of a player who keeps losing at the dice pit).

The teacher opposite looked grave, muttering "It's all over, it's all over" before hurriedly leaving the platform.

Xing Liang was completely baffled. As far as he knew, the Orses Duel Academy had always been a nobody in these kinds of exchange matches. Why was it acting like they were facing a formidable enemy?

Although he didn't know why the alarm clock hadn't woken him up last night, and he even had a nightmare, Xing Liang, who had slept well, seemed energetic at this moment (after his memory was taken away, he thought he hadn't woken up last night).

On the other hand, looking at the teacher's messy hair and haggard face, it was obvious that he hadn't slept well. Did he have to stay up all night discussing tactics for a nobody?

Xing Liang shrugged, walked down the platform with ease, and returned to the lounge to wait for the match to begin.

Skip the unnecessary competition procedures and let's fast forward to the card game.

The Crimson King!

"The Orses Duel Academy will attack first."

The intelligent referee is broadcasting the announcements.

"Both parties confirm that the pain level is set to: 1."

The competition has only just begun, and they are all students; there's no need to go all out from the start.

"Game start!"

"Preparation phase." (This voice line will not be included unless absolutely necessary; it is assumed to be present.)

Yeah, the resonance level was too low, so I didn't get it.

Lan glanced at her hand and didn't see the [Light-Angled Illusion Rabbit].

“On to the main stage.”

But it's not a big problem.

"By discarding the card 'Qiu and Sprout Spring Sprout' and one monster card from my hand, I can add 'Forest and Awakened Spring Sprout' from my Deck to my hand."

While her opponent wasn't looking, she secretly discarded the monster from her hand and added the Forest and Awakened Spring Sprite, which automatically popped out of the Duel Disk, to her hand.

"After that, I can Special Summon an EARTH monster from the graveyard, and I chose to Special Summon myself."

Vernalization essence of hills and budding, DEF2000.

As a trade-off, she cannot activate the effects of monsters other than EARTH this turn.

However, Xing Liang had warned her not to reveal information about her deck that was detrimental to her unless the opponent asked about its effectiveness, so she didn't say anything.

"The effect of the card 'Forest and Awakened Spring Enchantress' in my hand allows me to send it and one monster card from my hand to the Graveyard. I can also send one EARTH monster that can be Normal Summoned from my Deck to the Graveyard. I choose to send 'Spring Enchantress Goddess Spring' to the Graveyard."

"After that, I can Special Summon 1 EARTH monster from my Graveyard that has a different name from that monster card. I chose to Special Summon myself."

Forest and Awakening Spring Essence, DEF1800.

"There are two Level 4 monsters on the field, I'm going to play!"

Lan's originally soft tone changed, and her voice became impassioned. She sounded like an ace was about to make her entrance.

Pangwin, a student from the North Duel Academy opposite, perked up and, like the spectators watching the duel, unconsciously held her breath, eager to see who she would summon.

"I stacked two Level 4 Vernal Enchantress monsters together to Xyz Summon..."

"【No.41 Mudsleepy Beast, Sleepy Baku】"

Her voice lowered again, returning to its previous soft tone.

No. 41 Mud Sleep Monster, DEF2000.

That's it for now, go to bed first.

Sleepy Baku: zzz

audience:……

Pangwen on the other side: ...

It feels like the opponent is charging up a powerful attack, and then just farts out.

(Otherwise, what do you think two 4-star units are supposed to summon?)

"Ahem, place two cards face-down in the back row, end of turn."

Lan coughed lightly. As long as she wasn't embarrassed, it was others who would be.

Lan's frontcourt: Defense indicates a Sleepy Boomer.

Back row: Two mysterious face-down cards, 0 cards in hand.

"Inquire about the effects of the sleeping tapir."

Seeing that only one guardian monster remained in the final battle, Pangraven dared not be careless and used one of his inquiry opportunities.

"As long as this card is in Defense Position in the Monster Zone, face-up monsters on the field are changed to Defense Position, and the effects activated by Defense Position monsters are negated."

They started to give up.

Hmm, this is a bit tricky.

If monsters on the field are forced to defend, and the effects of monsters activated in the defense position are negated, then you can hardly rely on monster effects.

Pangwin rested his hand on his chin for a moment, then began his turn before the AI ​​referee started counting down.

"My turn, draw a card!"

Lan has two more backcourt cards of unknown origin; we must force her to use them first.

"Entering the main phase, I will set one monster card face down in Defense Position."

Lan scratched her head.

Hmm, what's up? You're opening a stall too?

Lan thought so, but Pangwin on the other side clearly didn't.

"Target the monsters I set on my field and the Sleepy Baku on your field, activate the Quick-Play Spell Card [Sun and Moon]!"

"This card's effect is: Change face-up monsters to face-down Defense Position, and change face-down monsters to face-up Defense Position!"

A staff adorned with a crescent moon at the top was hurled at the sleeping tapir represented on the surface, intending to plunge him into a deeper sleep.

"Open the face-down card [Weapon Call], chain its effect to add one Equip Spell Card from your Deck to your hand, and then you can equip it to 1 monster you control that you can equip that card to."

"I added 'Silent Staff - Ripple' from my deck to my hand, and then equipped it to my Sleepy Baku on the field. By using the effect of the Silent Staff, the monster equipped with this card gains 500 DEF, and the effects of other Spell Cards that target the equipped monster are negated and destroyed!"

Another, more oddly shaped staff intercepted the Moon Staff in mid-air and landed on the Sleeping Tapir's belly. The latter, still half-asleep, hugged the Staff of Silence to its chest, scratched its plump rear end, rolled over, and continued sleeping.

DEF: 2000→2500

Sleepy Baku: zzz
