Chapter 99 [The Sky Dragon of Osiris] Descends!
The Magician's Robe opened the summoning circle for dark magic. As the dimensional rift opened, the Dark Magician appeared, arms crossed, moving horizontally.
[Dark Magician, Level 7, Dark Attribute, Mage Race, Attack Power 2500, Normal Monster]
"Huh? It's finally appeared? Your ace, and also the ace of that despicable nameless Pharaoh, the [Black Magician]?"
Malik chuckled: "However, even the most powerful magician is powerless against my invincible combination."
"My turn is over. Now it's your turn!"
Malik's reaction at this moment was quite confident, so Kagura Kiryu guessed that there must be some kind of conspiracy in the two face-down cards in the back row.
"My turn, draw a card!"
Kagura Kiryu immediately reveals the card he drew:
"Spell Card, Pot of Greed: Draw two cards from your deck."
With two cards added to his hand, Kagura Kiryu made no move and instead went straight into the battle phase:
"Battle! [Dark Magician] attacks [Slime Token]!"
"Dark Magician!"
The Dark Magician waved his staff, and jet-black magic instantly transformed into a magic bullet, hurtling towards the Slime Specimen. "Hmph, foolish! You've fallen into my trap!"
Malik chuckled a few times, controlling the Gurus Hunter to click the duel disk:
"Activate the face card, Continuous Trap [Defense Slime]!"
"As long as this card exists, all attacks from your opponent will be transferred to [Regenerating Slime] to withstand! (Original effect)"
Malik's [Regenerated Slime] on the field received an order and immediately jumped in front of the [Slime Token] to block the attack.
But at the very moment it was about to make contact with the attack, the magic bullet seemed to have eyes and veered away.
Malik exclaimed in surprise, "What?! What happened?"
He immediately looked at the field and found that his Perpetual Trap [Defense Slime] was flickering with malfunctioning sparks, its effect restricted by dark magic.
He looked at the dark magician in shock, only to see the same sparks flashing on his staff. It was he who had prevented the [Defense Slime] spell from taking effect.
At this moment, there is a card in Kagura Kiryu's graveyard that remains in the popped state:
"The effect of [Magician's Guidance] in the graveyard: When the Dark Magician is on the field, negate one Spell/Trap card on your opponent's field until the end of the turn."
Malik: "When was it sent to the grave—wait, it was the one that was sacrificed as the price of the [Black Magician's Robe]!"
Y
"That's right."
Kagura Kiryu gave a humble smile: "This is also what I prepared for you—a sure-kill blow."
"At this moment, I activate the Quick-Play Spell Card, [Concentrated Socket]!"
"At the cost of only being able to attack with a chosen monster this turn, one monster you control gains increased ATK and DEF!"
"The Dark Magician's defense is 2100, therefore his attack power increases by 2100!"
[Dark Magician, Attack Power 2500 → Attack Power 4600]
"Attack power 4600!?"
Malik exclaimed in alarm, "Oh no! The slime derivative only has an attack power of 500!"
"That's right! So the difference of 4100 will be deducted from your lifespan! Malik, you've lost this round!"
The magic power supplied by the dark magician increased exponentially, and the magic missiles seemed to possess terrifying, deadly destructive power.
Malik paused for a moment, then suddenly burst into laughter:
"Hehehe, Kagura Kiryu, I apologize to you."
"Although I've always considered you a rival, I've never truly taken you seriously; I've only ever seen you as a foil on my path to revenge!"
"But now! I will show you the utmost respect I have for an enemy! I will put away all my pride and contempt!"
"Kagura Kiryu! I will defeat you with all my might!"
Malik shouted, "Open the face card, the trap card, [Destructive Healing]!"
"I destroyed the [Regenerating Slime], restoring 1500 HP!"
Before the [Slime Token] was destroyed, Malik's HP increased, and then he was hit by a magic bullet.
[Malik, LP4000→LP5500→LP1400]
Malik's Regenerating Slime on the field was blasted to pieces, but it quickly reformed.
"Then, because [Regenerated Slime] regenerated from the graveyard, I draw three cards from my deck!"
Kiryu Kagura: "I see. Although directly destroying the [Slime Token] would preserve more HP, you still chose to destroy the [Regenerating Slime] to draw cards?"
Malik chuckled. "After all, you can't deal with someone like you without being fully prepared!"
Kagura Kiryu glanced at his last card in his hand:
"Then, set one card down, and the turn ends."
The last card was displayed on his field.
Malik laughed heartily: "So you're betting everything on cards at the end?"
"My turn!"
"Because of the [Offerings to the Dead] effect, I'm skipping this card draw phase."
"Then comes the effect of the [Slime Breeding Furnace]! It adds a [Slime Token] to my field!"
A slime with a strange expression appears.
[Slime derivative, attack power 500.]
Malik pulled a card from his hand: "But I have this card!"
"[Pot of Greed]: Draw two cards from your deck!"
Malik drew two cards from his deck, and the controlled Gurus Hunter smiled:
"Then I activate the spell card, 'Sanctuary of the Demon'!"
"Special Summon 1 [Metal Demon Token]!"
Strange humanoid derivatives made of metal appeared.
[Metal Demon Derivative, Level 1, Dark Attribute, Demon Race, Attack Power 0, Derivative.]
Kagura Kiryu's expression darkened slightly:
"I see. So you've gathered three offerings and plan to summon the god this round?"
"Hahaha, that's exactly right!"
Malik laughed, and the Gurus puppet held up a card in its hand:
"I will offer three monsters as sacrifices: [Regenerating Slime], [Slime Token], and [Metal Demon Token]!"
"Descend, Kami (God)! Osiris, Sky Dragon!"
The three monsters vanished in a flash of light, their divine power overwhelming, thunder rumbling in the sky. From among the countless dark clouds, a bright red, two-mouthed dragon emerged.
This deity possesses an endless sense of oppression; it seems that simply standing there makes it impossible to breathe—that's theoretically true.
But in reality, Kagura Kiryu always felt that this god was not quite what he was promised.
It's not as imposing as his "Primordial Dragon King".
Why does this dragon give him such a weak feeling?
"Boom!"
A bolt of lightning struck, hitting the Gurus hunter squarely in the body, and even Kagura Kiryu could smell the burning.
Two or three minutes later, the hunter Gurus casually got up, waved, and shouted:
"See for yourself! This is God!"
"【Osiris the Sky Dragon】!"
【Osiris the Sky Dragon, Level 10, Divine Attribute, Mythical Beast Type, Attack Power "?", Effect Monster】
Kagura Kiryu:
He remained silent for a moment before saying:
"Is this a copy? It feels completely different from Kaiba's [Obelisk]."
Malik chuckled. "That's quite perceptive."
"Indeed, this is a copy card! But its effects are no different from the real god's!"
He controlled the already somewhat confused Guru Hunter to raise his hand:
"Osiris's attack power is determined by the number of cards in his hand! For each card he has, his attack power increases by 10."
00.
"I have two cards in my hand! So [Osiris]'s attack power is—"
[Osiris the Sky Dragon, Attack Power 2000]
"Hmph, Kagura Kiryu, you probably think that with the attack power of the [Sky Dragon of Osiris], even the [Black Magician] can't break through it, right?"
"Then you're completely wrong!"
"I activate the Spell Card! [Monster Resurrection]!"
"Resurrect the [Regenerating Slime] from the Graveyard!"
A resurrection symbol appears on the field, and the familiar slime reappears.
[Regenerating Slime, Defense 500]
"【Survivor's Treasure】Effect: Draw three cards!"
"Then I activate the Spell Card, [Thunderbolt]! Destroy all monsters on my field! Inflict 300 damage to my opponent for that number of monsters."
"The damage!"
"Spell cards only have one turn of effect against gods, and they cannot be affected by spell card effects that force them to leave the field! Therefore, they are destroyed!"
Only [Regenerating Slime]!
A bolt of lightning struck Kagura Kiryu, who groaned and shook his numb arm.
[Kagura Kiryu, LP3000→LP2700]
Malik: "Then [Regenerating Slime] is resurrected, I'll draw three cards!"
[Osiris the Sky Dragon, Attack Power 0 → Attack Power 6000]
"Battle! [Sky Dragon of Osiris], attack [Dark Magician]!"
"【Superconducting Wave. Lightning Cannon】!"
Lightning gathered in Osiris's mouth, and he spewed out bolts of lightning, attacking the Dark Magician.
The Black Magician vanished into points of light amidst the lightning.
Kiryu Kagura: "Discard [Kuriboh] from your hand to reduce the damage of one battle to 0!"
Curry, Curry!
6000 points of damage were absorbed.
Malik scoffed, "Did you escape the damage by relying on weak monsters?"
He drew two cards from his hand: "I set two cards face down, then activate the Continuous Spell, [Infinite Handbook], neither player has a hand limit! Turn over!"
Two face-down cards appear on the field. At the same time, due to the reduction in hand cards, the attack power of [Sky Dragon of Osiris] also decreases.
[Osiris the Sky Dragon, Attack Power 6000 → Attack Power 3000]
Kiryu Kagura: "Are you willing to lower [Osiris]'s attack power just to set a card?"
"My turn! Draw a card!"
Kagura Kiryu inserts the card he draws into the Duel Disk:
"Magic Card: The Life-Slaying Talisman".
"I will draw cards until I have five cards in my hand. After five turns, I need to discard all the cards in my hand."
"Draw a card!"
Kagura Kiryu retorted, "So you're the only one with a fake card? I have one too."
"Hmph, then I'll open the card."
Malik clicks the Duel Disk:
"Continuous Trap Card, [Flash Destroyer]."
"Once per turn, destroy one monster you control!"
"I destroyed [Regenerating Slime]!"
"Then [Regenerating Slime] is resurrected! Based on the effect of [Survival Treasure Card], I draw three cards from my deck!"
"Since my hand size has increased, [Osiris]'s attack power will also increase!"
[Osiris the Sky Dragon, Attack Power 3000 → Attack Power 6000]
Kagura Kiryu glanced at his hand, organized his thoughts, and after confirming that it was feasible, drew another card:
"I activate the Spell Card, 'Spider Silk' (original card). I gain one Spell Card you used last turn. I choose 'Monster Resurrection'."
"Then activate the spell card 'Monster Resurrection'! Revive 'Dark Magician' from the Graveyard!"
