Chapter 32: Chapter 31: GG
Note: There has been a change made, the previously summoned Thunder Giant has been changed into Shining Flare Wingman.
"Elemental Hero, Shining Flare Wingman, I summon you through the power of fusion!
The sacred light illuminated the earth, and from the swirling vortex of fusion emerged a hero adorned in shimmering silver armor. With technologically advanced metal wings supporting him, his body radiated a dreamlike aura of holiness. Descending gracefully, his weightless form caused faint transparent ripples to ripple beneath his feet upon landing.
[Elemental Hero·Flashing Flame Wingman, Attack Power 2500]
Yuyu randomly acquired this card from the system card pool some time ago. When he witnessed the burst of colorful light unique to UR cards in the pool, he was ecstatic. However, upon seeing Shining Flare Wingman, an urge to curse suddenly overcame him...
You see, while it was indeed a UR card, but he couldn't summon it!
The fusion materials required for Shining Flare Wingman were something he didn't have.
Unexpectedly, the observant Mr. T on the opposite side had actually considered this issue and kindly provided him with a versatile fusion material.
Mr. T on the opposite side was immediately astonished. "What kind of card is this? I've never seen these cards before!"
Well, that was no surprise considering that so far, none of the Elemental Heroes summoned by Yuyu had been seen. After all, this world hadn't reached the GX era yet, and the Elemental Hero deck hadn't been released. Yuyu's Elemental Heroes were all obtained from the system, so naturally, the opponent couldn't have heard of them.
But Mr. T quickly adjusted his stance. "Although I don't know where you got this, there's no way you can defeat my 'Meteor Black Dragon'!"
As if to demonstrate, the Meteor Black Dragon behind him opened its mouth and let out a resounding roar that echoed through the sky.
Yuyu smiled. "Shining Flare Wingman has a special ability. Each time an 'Elemental Hero' is in his graveyard, his attack power increases by 300 points."
"Nani!?" Mr. T lost his composure once again.
"I have four Elemental Heroes in the graveyard: Heat, Clayman, Sparkman, and Avian," Yuyu said, raising his duel plate. "Therefore, the attack power of Shining Flare Wingman has increased by 1200!"
[Elemental Hero·Shining Flame Wingman, Attack Power 2500 → Attack Power 3700]
"Attack power of 3700!?"
Mr. T, scared by the turn of events.
"Next, I'll use the spell card Quick Attack to allow the fusion monster to attack this round," Yuyu commanded with a wave of his arm. "Shining Flare Wingman, attack!"
The hero in silver armor spread his holy wings, soaring effortlessly through the air. Leaving behind a silvery white trail, he sprinted forward, and the shimmering starlight in his wake resembled falling raindrops.
The Meteor Black Dragon retaliated with fireballs, but it was in vain. Even with a mere 200-point difference in attack power, it was an absolute gap in strength within the rules of the game.
The glorious hero collided with the fireball, dispersing the scorching flames into a swirling vortex upon impact. Like an arrow, it pierced through the Black Dragon's body, leaving behind a gaping hole.
Lava and flames erupted from the dragon's pierced body like a volcanic eruption, triggering a thunderous explosion.
[Mr. T, LP2200 → LP2000]
Mr. T gritted his teeth. "I never expected the 'Meteor Black Dragon' to be defeated. I underestimated you."
"Don't worry, it's not over yet," Yuyu replied, flashing a slight smile.
At that moment, the Dark Magician Girl on his side, who had yet to join the battle, tightly gripped her staff, prepared to make her move.
The opponent had 2000 LP remaining, and her attack power matched that number. If she launched a direct attack, victory would be assured...
However, before she could act, Yuyu waved his hand. "The special ability of Shining Flare Wingman is activated!"
"Huh?" The Magician Girl blinked her large eyes.
"Do you not need me to attack?"
"The ability of this hero is to inflict damage equal to the attack power of monsters destroyed in battle," Yuyu explained with a smile. "Meteor Black Dragon has an attack power of 3500, which means..."
Mr. T was taken aback. "I have to take...3500 points of damage?"
As he spoke, the silver hero landed gently in front of him, and suddenly, a burst of radiant light erupted.
"Ahhh!!!"
With a miserable cry, the holy light shattered Mr. T's body. The power of the light tore him apart, turning his entire being into a black mist that scattered into countless cards.
[Mr. T, LP2000 → LP0]
"Damn it! Don't think it's over!" Mr. T's voice echoed in the air as the black mist dissipated, and he vanished completely.
Although his threatening words seemed powerful, they felt more like idle boasting.
The oppressive atmosphere dissipated completely. The surrounding darkness silently faded away, and the sounds of water under the bridge returned.
Yuyu retracted the duel plate, causing the card projection to vanish. The Magician Girl, still in a daze, stared at her round staff, lost in thought as if pondering the meaning of life.
She had been summoned by her master for the first time, yet she had done nothing but observe the duel from the sidelines, witnessing its abrupt end.
While the victory was ultimately secured, it felt rather odd...
["'Challenge from the mysterious man Mr. T' completed!
Quest reward: UR card, Dark Magician Girl.
Remarks: Cherish the opportunity to have an spirit on your side!"]
So, this card was a quest reward?
Yuyu took the "Dark Magician Girl" card from the duel board and glanced at it with satisfaction. Indeed, this outcome was not a disappointment. As a challenging quest, the rewards were certainly abundant.
It wasn't solely because of the card's value itself, though it did have an appealing design. Not that he was the type to obsess over such things... or was he?
The real significance lay in the presence of an spirit within the card.
This was an unprecedented opportunity.
In his previous life, while playing Link World, Yuyu had heard of players occasionally obtaining cards that allowed them to summon spirits.
Having an spirit in this world meant gaining supernatural powers. They could materialize and assist with various tasks and under specific circumstances, they might even deliver a direct blow to a target, and they provided a countermeasure against opponents who wielded the power of darkness.
Moreover, the senses of spirits were more acute than those of humans, enabling them to perceive things beyond human reach. Players with spirits had a greater likelihood of triggering important quests and reaping greater benefits.
This turn of events was undeniably a profitable one.
Yuyu pondered the situation and couldn't help but smile.
"Master... Master?"
The Dark Magician Girl floated nearby, observing her new owner's smile.
What was her master thinking?
"Oh, it's nothing." Yuyu dismissed his smile, returning the card to the deck. "Let's go. It's getting late, and it's time to head back."
"Uh-huh."
The Magician Girl nodded and followed behind, floating obediently.
