The victory in the duel at the Fu Sheng Academy did bring credits and spell points to Aisha and You Ling, and they were able to refine stronger magic and trap cards.
But Aisha's mentality, or essence, has not changed at all.
Even though Yilin successfully summoned Electro, Aisha still summoned weak normal monsters that had no effect during the summoning class every Thursday.
——So-called growth and becoming stronger are not like this.
"Listen to me, Aisha."
"[?_??]Hi?"
"If it were just me fighting this duel, it would be hard to win, but you're different, you know that?"
"How can I…"
"Just like Pharaoh said, believe in yourself. The cards I made for you and the tactics I chose for you may not be enough to win this duel. But you are different. In this deck, you have choices and possibilities that are unique to you."
"A possibility that belongs only to me?"
Aisha's emerald eyes moved towards her own card deck in the Eye of the Elf.
"Recall the first battle, Aisha. That was the victory that we could only grasp if we faced it together."
"The first battle."
That duel with Kevin Sett.
It is also the first time that You Ling and Aixia truly face each other together. Victory or defeat determines the future fate of the two.
The most critical turning point in that battle was not any card that You Ling chose to refine.
It was Aisha Youna Carlos's never-giving-up persistence over the past six months.
"I understand, Mr. You Ling. This time, I will take your place. Let us fight side by side!"
It was even more exaggerated than Kevin Set's duel.
In the true sense, the weakest VS the strongest.
This is the only chance left for Aisha Carlos to draw a card.
The white fingertips pressed on the Elf Eyes deck. Ever since You Ling came to her side, Aisha seemed to have not experienced the feeling of drawing cards by herself for a long time.
In the past, every time I drew a card, I was filled with confusion, as if every draw was a step towards the darkness of defeat.
But now it's different.
After witnessing so many duels of You Ling, Aisha re-recognized her own deck and saw hope.
It doesn’t matter if you lose, the direction pointed by fighting with all your strength is the path to growth.
"My turn, draw a card!"
The long-lost excitement of drawing a card from the deck personally ignited something called fighting spirit in Aisha for the first time in a duel.
"Haha." The Pharaoh smiled with satisfaction, "After you draw the card, the Continuous Trap Card [Bonus of Eiza] is activated, reviving the [King Knight] in my Graveyard once per turn!"
[King Knight ATK: 1600]
The resurrected Poker Knight King Kingdom held up the golden shield, and the infinite ability to survive brought by the perpetual trap card made the gap between the two sides widen.
If nothing unexpected happens, You Ling and Aisha will be directly defeated by the reunited three knights in the next round.
The only hope is Aisha's card drawing.
And the possibility that belongs only to Aisha as mentioned by You Ling.
"This card is, Mr. Yu Ling!"
"This is the last chance, Aisha!"
"Ok!"
Aisha & Yurei: "Activate the magic card [Notebook Exchange]!"
The last card that holds hope for a reversal is not any card created by Yu Ling, but the original D-level magic chosen by Aisha herself.
"According to the effect of [Exchange Cards], let's exchange cards in hand, Pharaoh."
Aisha currently has only one card left in her hand, [White Dust Demon]. Pharaoh has no choice but to exchange this card.
Aisha, on the other hand, can choose one of the four extra cards in Pharaoh's hand to exchange.
"You found your answer, Youna. Then, as a reward, take your pick!"
After taking the White Dust Demon from Aisha, the Pharaoh showed all the cards in his hand without any cover.
"!!!"
Every card has a card face that Aisha has never seen before.
Its rarity is also completely unknown, as if it is a card that does not exist in this world system at all.
Although Aisha didn't recognize any of the four cards, there was one card that attracted her deeply.
As if guided by the brilliant light, Aisha stretched out her white fingers and tapped lightly.
“I’ll choose this one.”
"Take it. She said she wants to go to your place, too."
Pharaoh gladly handed over his hand of cards.
"Well, my turn is over."
Holding the hand cards taken from the Pharaoh, Aisha did nothing and ended the round by keeping the original empty field.
"It's my turn, draw a card. Then activate the Continuous Trap Card [Bonds of Eiza] again to revive the last [Queen Knight] in my grave!"
[Queen Knight ATK: 1500]
With just one card, all three Poker Knights were resurrected. This strength alone is beyond the ability of Aisha's current deck to contend with.
"Well, after seeing how Yu Ling discovered the potential of monsters, let me also see the brilliance of your mind, Yu Na! The direct attack of the Guard Knight!"
"Right now, I'm going to activate a monster effect from my hand!"
Holding the card exchanged from the Pharaoh high above her head, Aisha felt for the first time that she had such courage in a duel.
Even if the opponent is the strongest, you must fight bravely.
This is the most important belief that You Ling taught himself as a duelist.
At the girl's fingertips, the reversal of hope blooms at this moment.
"The Glorious Goddess of Reversal!"
Chapter 53: God's Call
Looking from the distance at Fu Sheng Academy, one can clearly see the dazzling beam of light breaking through the sky in the night.
At the top of the light column is a goddess holding a holy staff, dominating the battlefield with a noble and glorious figure.
"So sacred, is that God?"
"But I heard that the cards of the Three Mythical Gods do not have human appearances."
Among all the students in the academy, only Yilin felt the true meaning of this light.
"Such a gentle light, is this Xiao Ai fighting? She is not relying on You Ling, but Xiao Ai is fighting on her own... Come on."
[The Goddess of Glorious Reversal]
This card itself is a monster card, but it has an effect that can be activated from the hand when the conditions are met.
This type of card, taking the most classic chestnut ball as an example, is commonly known as "hand pit".
However, even among the many "hand trap" cards, the effect of this [Goddess of Glorious Reversal] is extremely special.
Just as the effect described by her card name - reversal.
"The effect of [Glorious Goddess of Reversal] that can only be activated when the opponent's monster declares an attack—"
[If you have no cards on the field and only have this card in your hand, you can activate this effect by discarding this card from your hand when your opponent's monster declares an attack. All cards on the opponent's field are destroyed. After that, you can Special Summon 1 monster from your deck.]
This can only be activated when there are no cards on the field and this is the only card in your hand.
Only a counterattack launched in a desperate situation can be called a reversal.
Aisha tried her best to shout to the goddess in the sky.
"Please, bring down the light of reversal, goddess! After destroying all monsters on the opponent's field, special summon this monster from my deck!"
Destroy all cards on the opponent's field, including monsters and magic traps, and the light of reversal illuminates the entire back mountain.
At the same time, Aisha also drew from the deck a monster card that could be special summoned after the destruction effect of [Glorious Goddess of Reversal].
After the battle tonight, it is the monster with the highest single card attack power in my deck.
"Devil summons!"
The King of Solitary Priests with an attack power of 2500 points appeared on the field after clearing all the cards on the Pharaoh's field. This can definitely be called a brilliant reversal achieved by Aisha.
The angel clan [Goddess of Glorious Reversal] obtained by exchanging Aisha's notebook, and the demon clan [Devil Summoning] obtained by You Ling's dark game.
The power of light and darkness overlapped and appeared at this moment, representing the first real collaborative battle between Aisha and Youling.
"That's enough, You Ling, You Na!"
Under the shining brilliant light, the cloak behind the Pharaoh seemed to be galloping on the light.
"It was a very beautiful coordinated counterattack. You have achieved what I expected you to achieve."
When the reversal light that could destroy everything was about to hit, Pharaoh flicked out the speed card that exceeded the speed of the reversal light with his fingertips.
"I chain the effect of [Glorious Goddess of Reversal] and activate the Quick-attack Spell Card - [Godspeed Summon]!"
The so-called chain can be simply understood as activating the effect of your own card before the opponent activates the card effect.
This is an operation that can only be performed with Quick Play Magic or Trap Cards that have covered one turn.
The divine light that was in no way inferior to that of the Goddess of Reversal exploded on the Pharaoh's field.
[Speed Summon Quick-Play Magic Card Effect: If you have all of "Queen Knight", "Guard Knight", and "King Knight" on your field, you can apply the following effect instead. ●Add 1 Level 10 monster with an attack power of ? from your deck, other than Dark, to your hand. After that, you can summon 1 Level 10 monster. ]
"When the three Poker Knights gather on the field, the effect of [Speedy Summon] can add a monster with 10-star attack power? from the deck to the hand and summon it!"
"10 stars, attack power? Monster... could it be?"
The lightning of speed that erupted from Pharaoh's field, the dark clouds with thunder rolling in the sky, and the BGM "God's Wrath" that seemed to roar, all made You Ling feel bad.
"I will sacrifice the three monsters on my field, [Queen Knight], [Guard Knight], and [King Knight], and Upgrade and Summon them!"
Because of the chain effect of [Speedy Summoning], before the Poker Three Knights were destroyed by the Goddess of Reversal, the Pharaoh urgently released these three cards as sacrifices.
"Use three sacrifice monsters to upgrade the summoned monster?"
It was the first time that Aisha saw such an exaggerated summoning scene.
Even the Blue-Eyes White Dragon that Kemaseth summoned three times in a row was not as terrifying as the one he summoned in front of him.
"When the sky thunders and becomes chaotic, gather the ancient magic books in the chain and their power will be infinite! Summoning Kami! A stack of Osiris' sky dragons!"
[Sky Dragon God of Osiris ★★★★★★★★★★ (10 stars)]
[Abyss/Effect ATK:? DEF?]
Even larger than the Proto-Dragon, which was as big as a mountain, the Osiris Sky Dragon was tumbling in the thunderclouds. Its body was as bright red as fire, and it seemed to have no end as it circled in the sky behind the mountain.
This is the pressure of God that You Ling felt when he stepped into the back mountain.
That night, the students of Fu Sheng Academy saw the real God.
The rumors about the three mythical gods are not groundless.
"Osiris Sky Dragon's attack power increases by 1000 points for each card in your hand. I currently have 4 cards in my hand!"
[Osiris Sky Dragon ATK: 4000]
The attack power of the God Card, which surpasses all Duel Monsters, easily reached the highest value that You Ling had seen since he traveled through time.
"However, the monsters summoned before the effect of [Glorious Goddess of Reversal] will be destroyed by the effect of "Destroy all cards on the opponent's field"!"
"Haha, this is not a monster, but Kami!"
With its head raised high and roaring, the sky dragon completely neutralized the light of judgment of the "Glorious Goddess of Reversal" with the thunder from the gods.
