Kagura chuckled, "Now we have two offerings."
He drew the card he had just added using the "Hard Choice" card:
"I offer the [Holy Magician] and [Metal Demon Derivative] as sacrifices for a Superior Summon!"
"Come forth! The strongest magician, evolved through the baptism of light and darkness!"
"The Dark Magician of Chaos!"
Dressed in a tight-fitting magician's outfit, adorned with magenta buckles, and bearing a face that bore a striking resemblance to the "Black Magician," he held a long, spear-like staff that gleamed coldly.
This is the infamous forbidden card in Yu-Gi-Oh! history, "Chaos Dark Magician".
[Chaos Dark Magician, Level 8, Dark Attribute, Mage Race, ATK 2800, Effect Monster.]
"A high-level monster with an attack power of 2800?"
Gulimo spat out a sound, but didn't seem too worried, as if he had something to rely on.
Kagura chuckled: "No, no, no, it's not just that."
"I activate the effect of [Chaos Dark Magician]: When this card is Normal or Special Summoned, add 1 Spell Card from my Graveyard to my hand! (Old effect)"
"I choose to add the Spell Card [Monster Resurrection] from my Graveyard to my hand!"
A card pops out of his graveyard, Kagura draws it, and then inserts it into the Duel Disk:
"I activate the Spell Card, [Monster Resurrection]!"
Special Summon the second [Dark Magician of Chaos] from your Graveyard!
The dark passageway of the cemetery unfolds rapidly, and an identical magician monster appears.
[Chaotic Dark Magician, Attack Power 2800]
"Then I activate the effect of the second [Chaos Dark Magician] that I Special Summoned: When this card is Normal or Special Summoned, add one Spell Card from my Graveyard to my hand."
Kagura's graveyard produced another card. He smiled, drew the card, and showed it to Grimmo, whose face had turned deathly pale:
"I add [Monster Resurrection] from the graveyard to my hand."
At this point, Gurimo had already understood.
This is actually a continuous combo!
First, use the "Bitter Choice" to combine three copies of "Dark Magician of Chaos," one copy of "Monster Reborn," and one copy of "Premature Burial."
Show.
At this point, unless the opponent is completely out of their mind, they definitely won't choose those two resurrection spell cards.
In fact, no matter which card the opponent chooses, the effect is the same. If the opponent chooses [Monster Resurrection], the first [Chaos Dark Magician] can be resurrected.
Then use the effect of the first [Chaos Dark Magician] to reclaim [Monster Resurrection], then revive the second one, reclaim [Monster Resurrection] again, and so on—
However, if the opponent chooses [Chaos Dark Magician], as long as you manage to summon that card, you can recycle it again—summon it, recycle it—
So no matter what, as long as this C0MB0 deck is activated, you're guaranteed to have at least three powerful monsters with 2800 attack power on your field, and one [Monster Reborn] card that you can recycle back into your hand.
This, this—.
Large beads of cold sweat appeared on Gurimo's forehead.
Such a brilliant combination, such powerful tactics.
His breathing became rapid, and the slight disdain that had been in his eyes was completely gone; he was panicked as if he were being led to the guillotine.
So, this is the strategy of the Duel King?
Completely different from the offerings he made to the gods in the past, this was so terrifying. No wonder he was a duelist with the name of a tyrant!
Meanwhile, Kagura had already added [Monster Resurrection] to her hand again and activated it once more:
"Spell Card, [Monster Resurrection], revives the third [Chaos Dark Magician] in the Graveyard."
The third powerful magician revived on the field, and Kagura continued:
"Then activate this card's effect, and then recycle [Monster Resurrection] from your Graveyard."
He chuckled: "That's about right. Time to enter the battle phase."
"【Chaotic Dark Magician】, attack 【Valkyrie Knight】!"
"Destruction Spell - Ultimate Death Curse!"
The magician, adorned with magenta clasps, twirled his wand, revealing a dark sphere imbued with the power to obliterate souls, poised to strike and sending shivers down one's spine.
Grimm instinctively sensed something was wrong, even though destroying the Valkyrie Knight in battle and sending her to the graveyard was part of his plan.
But he still chose to listen to his heart:
"Open face down card, Continuous Trap, [Boost Resurrection], Special Summon 1 Level 4 or lower monster from your Graveyard, that monster gains 100 ATK and 1 Level!"
"Resurrect the [Captain Who Charged into Battle] from the graveyard!"
The brave and fearless captain emerged from the graveyard, only to be once again dominated by dark forces and transformed into a dark monster.
Gurimo shouted: "Next, the captain who is summoned again will once again receive the [Orichalcos Barrier] effect, increasing his attack power by 500!"
1"
"Furthermore, since I have two Warrior-Type monsters on the field, the boost to [Allied Forces] becomes 400!"
[Captain charging into battle, Level 3 → Level 4]
[The captain who charges into battle, attack power 1200 → attack power 1300 → attack power 1800 → attack power 2200]
[Valkyrie Knight, Attack Power 2600 → Attack Power 2800]
"But that's not the point!"
Grimmo shouted, "Both 'Charging Captain' and 'Valkyrie Knight' have the effect of preventing the opponent from attacking any Warrior-Type monster other than this card!"
"In other words, you cannot choose either of these two monsters as your target!"
This was a common combination in the early days of Yu-Gi-Oh!: two monsters that cannot attack other than this card would form a combo that cannot select an attack target.
Kagura nodded: "You've got some skill, that's what makes it interesting. Defeating your opponent in an instant is too boring."
"Keep it up! I still have a lot of new combinations I want to experiment with. Hang in there until then!"
He draws three cards from his hand: "I face down three cards, end of turn."
With a series of swishes, Kagura inserted three cards into the Duel Disk, adding a touch of despair to the duel.
Not far away, the trio, still posing high up, were discussing in hushed tones.
Ameruda exclaimed, "What a terrifyingly powerful and instantaneous attack! No wonder he's the King of Duels; he actually came up with such a combination technique."
Grimo was Rafael's subordinate, so he knew a bit about his subordinate's deck and commented:
"Gurimo is still quite clever."
"His Valkyrie Knight has the ability to Special Summon a Level 5 or higher Warrior monster from the Graveyard by banishing this card and one Warrior-Type monster from the Graveyard after it is destroyed by battle and sent to the Graveyard."
"Judging from his appearance, he probably used [Angel's Mercy] to ambush high-level, powerful warriors in the graveyard, just waiting for his opponent to break through so he can jump out and retaliate."
Amelda had also researched the monster of this Duel King, and he frowned, saying:
"The Chaos Dark Magician is a legendary magician whose attacks can even obliterate souls. Monsters destroyed by battle by this card will be banished from the game."
"In other words, if Grimm hadn't chosen to revive the 'Charging Captain' in the graveyard to complete the attack blockade..."
Yerafiru's gaze sharpened, and he said coldly:
"So, he's already a dead man now."
