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

The man cautiously peeked out, looked around to make sure the surroundings were safe, and then came out of the "door".

"This is the universe you were talking about that has new fun?"

He asked the black-haired beauty who was walking out of the "door" behind him, her injuries healed.

Although her injuries have healed, as a price for activating [Twisting] several times, her life level has dropped to the [Fellowship] realm. The only reason she dares to return now is because a [Rank] man is helping her conceal her presence.

"It's this universe, specifically one of the human planets in this universe... but I advise you not to go there yet, the waters there are very deep, you can't handle it."

Forgotten

The man used [forgetting] to make this universe "forget" their existence: that is, life levels below the [rank] level will "forget" the memory of discovering them, so as to achieve the effect of not being able to observe their existence. Even if they are of the same [rank] level, they will also "forget" them if they do not concentrate on looking at their location.

Even if you're sure you saw them, you'll forget you saw them as soon as you look away.

"Hmm... let me see where we can settle down first..."

As he spoke, the man looked up at the sky and began to determine his location, the gold ornaments on his body clinking and jingling with his movements.

They were standing on the planet where the black-haired beauty had last left, a planet that had been destroyed and then repaired by the fourth-tier lord.

Soon, they opened a "door" and left.

Unbeknownst to them, one of the man's many gold ornaments had silently fallen to the ground where they had left.

Shortly after they left, the golden ornament rapidly twisted, deformed, and expanded, transforming into a human shape. After looking up to determine its location, it broke through the planet's atmosphere and sped towards the human world.

Its speed was so fast that only a red streak of light could be seen streaking across the sky.

……

"Emperor's Knight effect: I Special Summon [Emperor's Knight Adria] with 800 ATK and 1000 DEF from my Deck."

The Heavenly Emperor's cavalry DEF1000

Emperors never lack loyal ministers.

"If this card is Normal or Special Summoned, Special Summon 1 monster with 800 ATK and 1000 DEF from your Deck in Defense Position, except for Heavenly Emperor's Knight".

The Heavenly Emperor summons the monsters that have been sleeping in the deck, using his power from his rider.

"I Special Summon from my Deck in Defense Position a card with 800 ATK and 1000 DEF... [Shell Cicada]".

molting cicada DEF1000

Sera: ?

There's something strange.

A dusty beetle, looking as if it had just crawled out of the ground, lay quietly on the field.

"If the card 'Mortal Cicada' is Special Summoned, you can activate this effect: Special Summon 1 'Mortal Token' (Insect/EARTH/Level 3/ATK 0/DEF 0) to your field."

The beetle pupaed in place, opened a slit on its back, and a cicada with its own dynamic and colorful skin crawled out, leaving the empty cicada shell behind.

Cicada molting derivative DEF0

As long as the tokens Special Summoned by this effect are in the Monster Zone, you cannot Special Summon monsters other than Insect-Type monsters from the Extra Deck, but this obviously won't have any effect on Emporium.

The Emperor's Deck has the effect "After this effect is activated, you cannot Special Summon monsters from the Extra Deck until the end of the turn." A mere Insect-Type Special Summon with self-restriction from the Extra Deck is practically useless.

"[Gina's Trap Card] effect: Send one of my Set Trap Cards to the Graveyard to activate this effect; Special Summon this card from your hand."

The [Grave Cave] that was just rebuilt this round has been sent to the cemetery.

Gina's Trap ATK 1400 → 2400 (Atips' Trap effect is currently active)

"The required materials are 1 'Trap Monster' other than a Link Monster. I'll set Gina's Trap Monster as a Link Arrow to Link Summon the third 'Sera's Trap Monster'!"

Sera's Trap ATK 800 → 1800 (Atipus's Trap effect is currently active)

"Activate the Normal Trap Card, [Time Dimensional Cave Gym]!"

"I shuffle my deck, then reveal the top card of my deck. If the revealed card is a monster that can be Normal Summoned, I Special Summon that monster!"

If the card is not a monster or cannot be Special Summoned, return the flipped card to the top or bottom of the deck.

The highest DEF of monsters on Emprey's field is only 1000. With the effect of Atipus's Trap Monster "Insect Trap monsters on your field gain 1000 ATK", any Trap Monster you flip will have ATK higher than the DEF of any monster on Emprey's field.

The Duel Disk is automatically shuffled, and Sera flips over the top card of her deck.

[Proliferated G]

Sera: ...

Ampri: ...

Proliferated G ATK500

Ampri swore that, protected by that invisible flame, he was completely unable to interfere with Sera's deck situation; this was purely Sera's bad luck.

"Ahem, no big problem. The effect of the Trap Monster of Sera can only be activated when a Normal Trap Card is activated. It Special Summons 1 'Trap Monster' monster with the same name that is not on your field from your Deck. I choose to Special Summon 'Trap Monster of Putica' from my Deck."

Putica's Trap ATK 900 → 1900 (Atipus's Trap effect is currently active)

"Putica's Trap Hollow effect: If this card is Special Summoned, you can target 1 Special Summoned monster you control, banish that monster, but during your next Standby Phase, you can Special Summon 1 banished monster of your own."

If there is a next preparation phase.

"Target your molting cicada on the field and banish it!"

This leaves Ampr with only 2 monsters on the field, while she has 5 monsters on the field. She wins!

"Then, by the effect of the Graveyard card 'Emperor of True Origin,' banishing a 'Emperor' Spell Card from the Graveyard and activating it, this card is transformed into a Normal Monster and Special Summoned to the Monster Zone in Defense Position."

C1 Putika's Insect Bewitching Demon, C2 True Source Emperor, Chain Reverse Processing.

True Source Emperor DEF2400

Sera had almost forgotten that this card was still in Ampr's graveyard. There was no other way but to clear the monsters off Ampr's field first.

"I declare battle mode activated! My multiplied G attacks your molted tokens on the field!"

A 500 attack power is still useful, because there are monsters whose defense power is even less than 500 (the entire Dreadnought family, except for the Pteranodon and the Carapace derivative, has a defense power of 0).

Ignoring the dense swarm of Gs gnawing at the derivative, Sera continued her attack.

"The Seraphim Trap attacks the Emperor's riders, the Atips Trap attacks the Emperor of True Origin!"

Upon hearing this, the two trolls no longer concealed themselves, revealing their true forms and capturing and killing all the monsters on Ampri's field.

But just as it was being strangled and dying by the bewitching worms of Sera, the Emperor's riders once again exerted their power.

"If this card, 'Emperor of the Gods,' is sent to the Graveyard, target 1 of my banished 'Emperor' Spell/Trap Cards: activate 'Pantheistic Emperor,' add that card to your hand."

"You have no monsters on the field. Trappet Sitoris and Trappet Putica, attack directly!"

Amprey LP6000→2500→600

"I declare that I am entering the second main phase. The material requirement is two Insect-Type and two Plant-Type monsters. I will set the Insect-Type monster G-type and the Plant-Type monster Puttica's Trap to a link arrow and link summon LINK-2, [Kularia's Trap]!"

Claria's Trap ATK 1800 → 2800 (Atipus's Trap effect is still active)

"I declare the end of my turn. During the End Phase, I activate the effect of Claria's Trap, targeting Fricia's Trap in my Graveyard, and Special Summon it in Defense Position."

Fricia's Insect Bewitching Demon DEF2500

Although Fricia's Trap Monster cannot activate its effect without Xyz Material, as long as this card is in the Monster Zone, other "Trap Monster" monsters on Sera's field cannot be destroyed by battle or card effects, and Empree cannot target those "Trap Monster" monsters with its effects.

The turns have switched, and it's Ampr's turn again.

"My turn, draw a card."

Sera has 5 monsters on the field and 2 face-down cards, while he only has two cards in his hand.

"Because of the Bewitching effect of your Putika Insect, I Special Summon [Emperor of the Underworld, Aidos] from the Banshee Zone."

Sera frowned, realizing she had dug her own grave by focusing solely on clearing the board and finishing off the opponent.

"The effect of the Normal Trap Card [Purgatory's Pitfall] is activated when you Special Summon Hades with 2000 or more ATK. Negate the effects of any Hades with 2000 or more ATK and destroy them!"

This is the card that Sera has been face down and hasn't been activated yet. It's not that she doesn't want to activate it, but that the activation conditions aren't met.

Special Summoning requires an attack power of 2000 or more. When has Ampri ever met these conditions?

The poor King of the Underworld hadn't even gotten a foothold on the field before he fell into a trap.

"Activate the Normal Spell Card 'Pantheistic Emperor', send the 'Emperor' Spell Card 'Emperor's Strategy' from your hand to the Graveyard, and draw two cards."

"I activate the [Pantheistic Emperor] card from my Graveyard. I reveal 3 [Emperor] Spell/Trap Cards from my Deck. You choose 1 of them and add it to my hand. The rest are returned to my Deck."

The Return of the Emperor

The Return of the Emperor

The Return of the Emperor

It's another classic three-choice question.

"Target the monster with 2400 ATK and 1000 DEF in your Graveyard, the Underworld Emperor, and activate the Equip Spell Card 'The Reborn Emperor'. Negate its effect and Special Summon it in Defense Position, then equip it to this card."

Hades peered out and, after confirming several times that there were no traps, stood confidently on the Ampri field.

Hades ATK2400

Nothing happened.

"The effect of the Emperor of Rebirth: When a monster is Tribute Summoned, the equipped Emperor of the Underworld can be Tributed as two monsters. Therefore, Tribute the Emperor of the Underworld on the field to Tribute Summon [Ether the Emperor]!"

Emperor of Heaven, Ether ATK2800

Still nothing happened.

Ampri narrowed his eyes slightly. Was it because no trap card met the activation conditions?

in case…

"Inquire about the complete effect of the [Temporal Pitfall] you previously placed face down."

"You can activate this effect when you Special Summon a monster from your hand or Extra Deck. Return those monsters Special Summoned from your hand or Extra Deck to their owners’ Deck. After that, I lose 1000 Life Points for each monster that returned to their Deck."

Does the deck use Extra Summon?

He doesn't need any extra cards, but the Emperor will immediately have a Special Summon from the deck. Although it will be bounced back to the deck, since it can reduce Sera's Life Points...

“天帝上级召唤的场合发动，从手卡·卡组把「帝王」魔法·陷阱卡2种类各1张送去墓地，从卡组把1只攻击力2400以上而守备力1000的怪兽特殊召唤！”

Nothing happened; it seems there was no chain reaction of effects.

C1 Heavenly Emperor, C2 Underworld Emperor.

"If I Tribute Summon the Underworld Emperor from the Graveyard with 2400 or more ATK and 1000 DEF, Special Summon this card!"

Sera's eyes lit up; this was exactly what she had been waiting for!

"Graveyard [Transaction Reversal] effect: Banish this card and pay half of your Life Points. Target Graveyard Hole in the Graveyard and activate this effect. This effect becomes the same as the Graveyard Hole's effect when it was activated!"

Sierra LP6000→3000

C1 Heavenly Emperor, C2 Underworld Emperor, C3 Transaction Rollback.

Ampri was stunned. When did that card end up in the graveyard?

Could it be... that it was activated at the very beginning when [Insect Temptation] required a Normal Trap Card from the hand to be sent to the Graveyard for activation?!

Chain reverse processing.

As the King of the Underworld was about to climb out of the tomb, he looked up and saw a shovel rapidly enlarging in front of him.

"when!"

Amprey LP600 → 0 (-1400)

The duel is over.

"Arces Duel Academy wins the sixth match against Gloadi Duel Academy!"
