Chapter 73 - Chapter 72: Ace Combination

If one word were to describe Senior Seika's mood at this very moment, it would undoubtedly be —

— Shattered.

How could anyone's ace monster and soul be Special Summoned on the opponent's field?!

When you yourself shout that out, do you truly not feel strange at all?

But regardless, the burning Fiend God had now appeared on her field, molten lava flowing all over its body. Even as a holographic projection, she seemed to feel the scorching heatwaves. And in front of the Fiend God, there was a giant iron cage, trapping the senior within it as if playing some kind of bondage game.

[Lava Golem, DEF 2500]

Next, Yu Gen continued: "Activate the spell card Pot of Greed! Draw two more cards from my Deck.

Then, from my hand, activate this card ——

—— Spell card - Terraforming!

Add one Field Spell Card from my Deck to my hand."

Although this turn, relying on Graceful Charity to speed up his draws, he still didn't draw the key field spell, drawing a search card was almost as good. Yu Gen reflected, feeling that on the path of divine drawing, he still had a long way to go, requiring persistent practice and more real combat tempering.

"From my Deck, add the Field Spell Megaroid City to my hand," Yu Gen said, "Then, Field Spell Megaroid City activates!"

With a rumbling roar, crisscrossing bridges rose up, and the metal traffic city of Roid occupied the duel field.

"Then, I set one card."

A shadowy card projection appeared at Yu Gen's feet.

"Field Spell Megaroid City's effect activates!" Yu Gen waved his hand, "Once per turn, destroy one card on my field, and add one 'Roid' card from my Deck to my hand.

I destroy the set card I just set."

The set card exploded into fragments, and a huge garage projection appeared in front of him.

"Based on Megaroid City's effect, I add a second Submarineroid from my Deck to my hand," Yu Gen said, "Although I cannot Normal Summon during the turn I Summoned Lava Golem, the set card I just destroyed was Wonder Garage.

When a set Wonder Garage is destroyed and sent to the Graveyard, I can Special Summon one Machine-Type monster Level 4 or lower from my hand."

He slammed the monster he had just searched onto the duel disk.

"Appear, Submarineroid Unit 2!"

The second small submarine jumped onto the field, revealing an "Ultra Fierce.JPG" gaze.

[Submarineroid, ATK 800]

Kohinata Seika's mouth twitched. Though she wanted to speak, she held back, but her disdainful gaze clearly said ——

—— Why is it you again!?

Around them, some of the Ra Yellow students present felt extremely familiar with this scene and felt some sympathy for the beautiful senior's encounter, while also harboring a slightly twisted sense of secret delight.

Especially some students who had endured the submarine's "trampling" over the past week couldn't help but curse Yu Gen for completely lacking compassion, while secretly urging him to increase the intensity.

"First, I'll change the first Submarineroid to attack position.

Then, enter the Battle Phase. First, Submarineroid Unit 1 attacks, directly attacking Senior Hyuga!"

The first submarine launched, two torpedoes whizzing across the field, sweeping straight towards the senior.

"Open my set card!" Kohinata Seika shouted, "Trap card Massivemorph! It can double the ATK and DEF of one monster on the opponent's field!

I double the ATK of Submarineroid Unit 1 on your field!"

[Submarineroid, ATK 800 → ATK 1600]

Spectators outside the field: "Nani? She actually voluntarily doubled the opponent's monster's ATK?"

"Another effect of Massivemorph!" Kohinata Seika said, "A monster whose ATK is doubled by this effect cannot attack directly!"

Everyone suddenly understood.

"Willing to increase its ATK, she actually used such a clever way to avoid a direct attack. As expected of the senior!"

"Not only that, this way, Yu Gen can only attack her face-down Warrior Lady of the Wasteland. And when Warrior Lady of the Wasteland is destroyed, she can Special Summon a Warrior-Type monster with 1500 ATK or less from her Deck..."

Yu Gen naturally thought of this point: "Then, accepting Massivemorph's effect, the battle is rewinded. I cancel Unit 1's attack.

But then there's still Submarine Unit 2. Unit 2 will perform a direct attack!"

Unit 1 retreated, Unit 2, well-trained, topped the deck. A torpedo missile, dragging a trail of bubble trajectory effects, launched.

"At this moment, Megaroid City's field effect! When a 'Roid' monster battles, send one 'Roid' monster from the Deck to the Graveyard, and switch that monster's original ATK and DEF!"

[Submarineroid, ATK 800 → ATK 1800]

Senior Seika's expression changed: "1800 ATK direct attack?"

But before she could finish speaking, the torpedo had already stuffed itself into her mouth. The senior "Oa" groaned miserably, staggering back under the explosion effect, her violent movements creating a storm.

[Kohinata Seika, LP 3200 → LP 1400]

"You brat!" Senior Seika gritted her teeth.

And tried her best to rely on her idol and lady-like image to restrain the impulse to physically "scoop" the opponent's hand.

"After attacking, Submarineroid changes to Defense Position. Next, I reset my back row, set one card, and end my turn."

Kohinata Seika tried to calm her turbulent emotions, refocusing her attention on her own duel rhythm.

"My turn, draw!"

"At this moment, Lava Golem's effect!" Yu Gen said, "Lava Golem, during the Standby Phase, inflicts 1000 points of damage to its controller!"

"Nani!?"

Seika's face changed drastically. She looked up, only to see the ugly, stiff, and foolish monster also looking down at her, grinning as if laughing mockingly at her.

Then, a large mass of scorching hot stuff crashed down, drenching her completely.

"Agh!"

[Kohinata Seika, LP 1400 → LP 400]

She gritted her teeth and looked up. When she looked at the opponent again, her eyes were already streaked with blood.

It was as if, for a moment, titles like "Duel Academy Miss" and "Triple Champion" were all thrown to the back of her mind. Perhaps she even forgot why this duel was being fought; only one pure thought remained in her head:

Kill this damned old silver-tongued bastard!

"The card I drew is the Equip Spell Axe of Despair!" She shouted, "Change Lava Golem to Attack Position, and equip Axe of Despair to Lava Golem!

Axe of Despair increases the ATK of the equipped monster by 1000 points!"

[Lava Golem, ATK 3000 → ATK 4000]

"With that, your Lava Golem's ATK reaches 4000 points!" She shrieked fiercely, "Feel the power of your own monster!

Lava Golem attacks ——"

"Open my set card," Yu Gen calmly said, "Continuous Trap - Nightmare Wheel.

Target one monster on your opponent's field; that monster cannot attack, and cannot change its battle position.

I lock Lava Golem's attack!"

Seika felt like exploding.

What the hell is this?! It ate my monster, burned my life points, and now it can't even attack, right?!

Of course, such a large Lava Golem, judging from its holographic projection effect, the tiny Nightmare Wheel definitely shouldn't be able to bind it. But this iron dummy was surprisingly cooperative. Seeing the wheel flying towards it, it actually extended its hands voluntarily, posing as if surrendering.

The iron wheel bound the iron dummy's two hands. Lava Golem faintly let out a muffled "Oowoo" sound, extending its handcuffed hand towards Kohinata Seika as if expressing helplessness.

"You see, it's not that I'm not helping you, but I've been captured, so I can't do anything."

Senior Seika's blood pressure continued to soar.

"You're all in cahoots, aren't you!?"

Ah, she seemed to have stated the obvious; these two scoundrels were indeed in cahoots.

"Alright, it's my turn... Oh, right, I forgot to explain."

Yu Gen smiled brightly.

"Nightmare Wheel has another effect, Senior.

When a monster is bound by Nightmare Wheel, its controller takes 500 points of damage during each of our Standby Phases."

Kohinata Seika: "!!!!?"

What?! How much damage!?

[Kohinata Seika, LP 400]

Senior Seika looked up in horror, only to see the burning iron dummy also looking down at her.

For some reason, she seemed to see a hint of innocence in the iron dummy's empty eyes as it slowly extended the spiky, revolving wheel in its hand towards her.

As if saying, "Don't blame me, I really can't do anything."

Senior Seika collapsed onto the ground, screaming "Ah ah ah!"

"Don't come over here!"

"Don't come near me, ah ah ah!!!"

The spiky Nightmare Wheel rolled over her.

[Kohinata Seika, LP 400 → LP 0]
