Chapter 346 Battle against Paradocas
"Okay, I don't quite understand your logic."
Kagura pulled out her Duel Disk, which she always carried with her, and unfolded it with a click: "But none of that matters, as long as I win the card game!"
Paradox sneered, "Oh—no wonder you're the King of Duels."
"I don't know whether to call you confident or arrogant, but such a small sacrifice from you is just part of my grand experiment!"
"Duel!" x2
【Kagura Kiryu, LP4000】
Paradocas, LP4000
"Huh? Ah?"
Yosaki Mio looked on blankly at the scene of the two arguing fiercely.
Wait, why did we fast-forward to the card game part?
She was full of questions, but could only silently retreat behind Kagura.
Well, never mind. Anyway, her younger brother has never lost at cards, so she'll just have to watch.
"Hmph! The first strike is mine!"
Paradocas, this time traveler, was utterly unsportsmanlike; he drew five cards at once and seized the initiative.
He looked at his hand, a slight smile appearing on his face, the long red stripe marking his features contorting slightly: "Heh, with this hand, I'll bury you and this era together!"
Paradox drew a card from his hand: "I activate the Spell Card! [Plasticity]!"
"Add 1 Field Spell Card from your Deck to your hand!"
"What I'm adding to my hand! It's the Field Spell from my deck! [Sin.World]!"
Paradocas's Future Duel Disk automatically popped out cards, which the blond, muscular man deftly drew and showed to Kagura: "Hahahaha! Now I'll activate a Field Spell! [Sin. World]!"
Paradokas's Duel Disk field area popped up automatically. As he placed the Field Spell, instantly, dark electricity spread from the deck to the Duel Disk, and then to the entire D-Wheel.
Eventually, the surrounding area transformed into a vibrant, colorful city, with thin, dark lines running through every corner like veins.
"Such a huge venue?"
Yosaki Mio looked at the area that stretched for hundreds of meters in surprise: "Wait a minute, the surrounding buildings don't look like this."
"Even virtual projection shouldn't alter reality this drastically!"
Paradox chuckled, "【Sin. World】is one of the great achievements of my magnificent experiment."
"You can think of this as a special space created using technology, similar to a dark game!"
"Duelmen who are defeated in the [Sin World] will die instantly!"
Yosaki Mio was unusually calm.
She thought it was something amazing, but it's just a game of gambling with your life on the line. Her brother has even gambled the world on cards.
Kagura was also unusually calm.
He might not have played other boss decks, but Paradokus's Sin deck—sorry, he's practically worn it out in Duel Links.
He always liked to use this deck when playing against random players in Duel Links.
Paradox drew another card from his hand and slammed it onto the duel disk: "Next, I banish [Ultimate Jewel God Rainbow Dragon] from my deck! Come forth! [Sin Rainbow Dragon]!"
A white dragon, inlaid with seven gems of different colors, appeared, letting out a mournful roar, as if trying to struggle.
However, the black lines within the arena rapidly eroded the dragon's body. Soon, a black mask was placed over the dragon's head, and its wings were also dyed black, rendering it completely under control.
[Sin. Rainbow Dragon, Level 10, Dark Attribute, Dragon Race, ATK 4000, Effect Monster.]
Kagura raised an eyebrow: "[Sin. Rainbow Dragon]?"
No, he even managed to capture John's Rainbow Dragon? Is Paradox always this brave?
Yosaki Mio, however, was quite shocked. She exclaimed in astonishment, "He summoned a monster with an attack power of 4000 all at once?"
Paradokas explained with a cold laugh, "Sin Monsters are monsters that can be Special Summoned directly by banishing the corresponding monster!"
The Sin deck is a very simple high-attack deck that requires banishing the corresponding monster to Special Summon it, which is equivalent to putting the monster on the field without any cost.
The Sin Monsters are all high-attack monsters, but they have no resistance.
These monsters are heavily reliant on the Field Spell "Sin World". As long as this card doesn't leave the field, the Sin monsters on the field will self-destruct.
Therefore, this deck is actually quite clunky, and only someone like Paradokus would use something that is both fun and clunky.
However, this deck is still very strong in this era, especially since it has now plundered many elves from other eras, forcibly controlled them, and created this sin deck.
Therefore, Paradokus's dueling power was also quite strong at this time.
"Next, I'll set four cards face down! End of turn!"
Paradokus inserted four cards into the Duel Disk, and four face-down cards immediately appeared in the back row.
"My turn, draw a card!"
Kagura drew a card, glanced at it, and expressionlessly inserted it into the Duel Disk: "Quick-Attack Spell! [Whirlwind]!"
"Destroy one Spell/Trap Card on the field! I choose your Field Spell Card! [Sin.World]!"
A whirlwind swept across the field, and Paradokas's expression changed, but quickly turned into a cold laugh: "Heh, just as I thought. Although I don't know exactly what happened, you certainly know my deck very well!"
"But don't think you're the only one with extra intelligence! I already knew about your tendency to attack others' weaknesses!"
"That's why I specially prepared this card!"
A face-down card was revealed in front of him: "Trap Card! [Pandora's Fragment] (Original Card)!"
"When an opponent activates an effect that targets one of your Spell/Trap Cards, you can activate this effect. Transfer that target to the card that was the correct target, and then draw 2 cards from your Deck!"
The whirlwind was immediately drawn to the flipped-up card, destroying it, while the card "[Sin. World]" remained unscathed.
"Next, I'll draw two cards from my deck!"
Paradokas drew two cards from his deck and added them to his hand, holding the two cards with an air of confidence.
Kagura: ?
No, this is so insidious? Information came naturally?
What will I be doing in the future that makes you so concerned?
"Then we'll just have to go for it!"
Kagura felt a bit excited; he was increasingly able to appreciate the joy of dueling lately.
"First! I activate the Continuous Spell Card! [Severed Darkness]!"
Kagura inserted the card into the Duel Disk, and the permanent card immediately appeared on the field.
"Next, I activate the effect of [Magician's Twin Souls] in my hand, sending 1 Level 6 or higher Spellcaster monster from my Deck to the Graveyard. I can activate one of two effects!"
"I send the Level 7 [Dark Magician] from my Deck to the Graveyard! Activate its second effect!"
"Send 'Magician's Souls' from your hand to the Graveyard! Then, you can Special Summon 'Dark Magician' or 'Dark Magician Girl' from your Graveyard!"
"Come forth, Dark Magician of the graveyard!"
Kagura's alternate version, "The Black Magician," appears from the summoning magic circle.
[Dark Magician, Level 7, Dark Attribute, Mage Race, Attack Power 2500, Normal Monster.]
Upon appearing on the field, he immediately turned around, knelt on one knee before Kagura, and the hem of his robe fell to the ground a beat later: "It is my honor to fight for you, my master."
Kagura was a little embarrassed: "Haha, okay then."
He really doesn't have a penchant for weird master-servant games; if he were to play one, it would be with the "Black Magic Girl"!
Please don't let Yosaki Mio see this, or he'll start imagining all sorts of horrifying scenarios.
"At this very moment! I activate the effect of the Continuous Magic [Severed Darkness]!"
Kagura waved her hand, pointing to the cards on her field: "Once per turn, when I successfully Normal Summon or Special Summon a Normal Monster other than a Token, I draw 1 card from my Deck!"
Kagura placed her fingers on the deck, and the card she drew traced a sharp path through the air, like a sword slicing through the darkness.
Seeing the glowing card, Paradokas immediately sensed something was wrong and waved his hand: "Open the face-down card! Trap Card [Sin. Claw Stream]!"
"When you control a [Sin] monster, you can target 1 monster your opponent controls; destroy that monster!"
"I'll destroy your Dark Magician on the field!"
A torrent of data, carrying with it many small bats wearing masks resembling Paradox's, swarmed and destroyed the "Dark Magician" in Kagura.
Kagura chuckled, "Your intuition is pretty sharp, but this one card won't stop you."
He drew another card: "Spell Card! [The Veil of Dark Magic]!"
"You must pay 1000 Life Points to Special Summon 1 DARK Spellcaster Monster from your hand or Graveyard!"
"I pay 1000 Life Points to Special Summon [Dark Magician] from my Graveyard!"
[Kagura Kiryu, LP4000→LP3000]
"Appear again, [Dark Magician]!"
The pitch-black magic circle reappeared, and the [Black Magician] struck again, repeatedly hopping between reality and the graveyard.
At this moment, the high-ranking magician became extremely agitated: "You actually caused my master to lose life points! You deserve to die!"
Kagura ignored the chuunibyou spirit's words, drew the card she had just used, and inserted it into the Duel Disk: "Now I activate my Spell Card! [Thousand Blades]!"
"You can only activate this effect if you control [Dark Magician]: Destroy one monster your opponent controls!"
"I'll destroy your [Sin Rainbow Dragon] on the field!"
Countless throwing knives appeared in front of the Black Magician, heading straight for the giant gem dragon on the field.
Paradokus clicked his tongue and activated another face-down card: "Trap Card! [Sin. Power]!"
"Target one of your monsters with 'Sin' in its name! As long as that monster is face-up on the field, it is unaffected by your opponent's Spell Cards!"
"I choose my [Sin Rainbow Dragon]! Therefore, your [Thousand Blades] has no effect on it!"
Kagura looked at the [Sin. Rainbow Dragon] encased in a protective shield and was slightly speechless: "Your protection is too good, it's like a turtle shell!"
Paradokas, however, was not angered by these words. He simply chuckled and said, "To be honest, I've witnessed your duels before!"
"Your future self is far too powerful! I have no chance against you whatsoever, which is why I came to this era to eliminate you beforehand!"
"In order to succeed, I must be more cautious than ever before, removing this mountain that blocks my future, even if it means sacrificing my own life!"
Kagura: ————
"Um, can you tell me what I did in the future?"
Kagura's eyes were unusually sincere, and she looked very innocent: "Uncle, look at me, I'm such an innocent minor, why do I have to die?"
"Tell me what I did after that. I promise I'll work hard to improve and strive to be a good person who's useful to society." Paradox's expression was initially silent, then suddenly turned cold, and he forced out a sinister smile: "Heh, that's the look in your eyes! When I questioned you about why you wanted to destroy this world, that's the look you gave me!"
"Just now! I confirmed my thoughts again! I will truly destroy you! No matter how many people you save now! You will degenerate into that terrifying demon in the future!"
Kagura: ————? ? ?
I understand less and less.
To be honest, although Uncle Paradox is a bit strange, he is actually a villain who saves the world, so he can be considered a good person, just with a different stance.
Could it be that I've really become a bad person?
Kagura sighed, stopped thinking about it, and continued her turn: "Fine, if I want to ask you anything, I'll ask you slowly after I defeat you."
He drew a card: "Spell Card! [Burial Spell Treasure Card] (Original Card)! Banish 3 Spell Cards from your Graveyard, and draw 2 cards from your Deck!"
"I banish 'Whirlwind,' 'Curtain of Dark Magic,' and 'Thousand Knives' from my Graveyard! Draw two cards from your Deck!"
Kagura drew two cards, glanced at them, and finding them useless, simply waved her hand: "Enter battle phase!"
"The Dark Magician attacks the Sin Rainbow Dragon!"
"Dark Magician!"
Without the slightest hesitation, the Black Magician leaped up, raised his staff, and began to cast a spell to condense magic.
Paradox exclaimed in surprise, "You actually use a monster with low attack power to attack a monster with high attack power?"
'
Kagura waved her hand: "Now I'll activate the second effect of [Severed Darkness]!"
"When a Level 5 or higher Normal Monster battles an opponent's monster, that monster's ATK increases by that opponent's ATK until the end of this turn!"
"Therefore! The attack power of my [Dark Magician] will increase by the attack power of your [Sin Rainbow Dragon] until the end of the turn! That is, a value of 4000!"
[Dark Magician, Attack Power 2500 → Attack Power 6500]
The magic bullet that the Black Magician condensed rapidly expanded and grew larger, creating an extremely oppressive effect.
"What?!"
Paradox's eyes widened: "Attack power 6500!?"
"Bang"
A magic bullet brimming with murderous intent slammed heavily into the [Sin. Rainbow Dragon], causing the dragon to let out a terrifying wail before finally turning into specks of light and disappearing.
At the same time, a phantom of a giant dragon with seven gems embedded in its body briefly appeared, letting out a cry of relief towards Kagura, seemingly in gratitude.
Paradox, LP4000 → LP1500
