Chapter 205: Rapid Fusion
The Magic Toy series—specifically the combined category of Magic Toy, Sharp Imp, and Fluffy Animal—is the deck of Zi Yunyuan Su Liang, an elite of the Fusion Army who infiltrated the "Base Dimension" in the original "Yu Gi Oh A5" storyline.
The series fundamentally maintains the image of "cute little animals at first glance, but upon tearing open their outer layer, they are all demons."
Beyond its extra design, this deck also features a classic "Fusion" support axis.
It is not a support axis for Fusion Summoning, but specifically for the card "Fusion" itself.
In fact, it is precisely the card that Shen Shui Mao has just activated.
"Activate the effect of Magic Toy Patch: Add one 'Sharp Imp' monster and one 'Fusion' card from your deck to your hand!"
Shen Shui Mao's deck automatically ejected one Fusion and one monster; he picked them up, held them up to show them, and said, "I add Sharp Imp – Scissors and Fusion from my deck to my hand."
"Wow, that's an amazing card."
"Isn't this way stronger than Fusion Sage?!"
Scissors?
Tiancheng Guang glanced at his opponent's card, and at that moment, Tierra nervously asked Tiancheng Guang: "Tiancheng Guang, what's the effect of that monster?!"
As a beginner, although she had seen it many times, she had actually engaged in very few duels herself, so Tierra was tense about everything.
"Don't worry, he'll explain the effect soon."
Tiancheng Guang wasn't particularly surprised by his opponent using Magic Toy.
It wasn't because Zi Yunyuan Su Liang used this deck in the original story that Tiancheng Guang assumed someone from the Fusion Army must use it.
Tiancheng Guang believed someone in the Fusion Army would use this deck because he frequently saw Fusion Army members giving out "dolls" at various events.
It wasn't just during this recruitment event that they gave out dolls.
In fact, last year, during the festival where Tiancheng Guang first met Serina, the Fusion Army had turned giving out fluffy dolls into an event—he had already anticipated they'd pull out Magic Toy to duel him then.
Unfortunately, until today, Tiancheng Guang had never seen any Fusion Army member use this deck.
So Tiancheng Guang speculated that perhaps this wasn't a low-tier deck like "Ancient Machine," nor an elite deck like "Gladiator Beast," but rather a mascot-type deck.
After all, they really did produce a massive quantity of Magic Toy dolls.
"Next, I activate the spell card: Fusion!"
Shen Shui Mao didn't pause his actions; he immediately activated the cards just added to his hand: "Fusion between Sharp Imp – Scissors and Fluffy Animal – Cat in my hand!"
"Fusion condition: One or more Sharp Imp and Fluffy Animal!"
As he performed the action, a large, fluffy white-winged kitten appeared on the field; several newly enrolled female students, seeing the adorable cat, couldn't help but let out soft screams.
Cute things always attract affection.
Especially cats—naturally even more beloved.
But what followed was somewhat brutal.
The fluffy cat suddenly split open with a "crack-crack" sound; from its blue, fluffy belly emerged a sharp pair of scissors, which then crack-cracked apart the cat, transforming it into another fluffy creature—but now grotesque, with razor-sharp fur—becoming a demonic wolf.
The art style shifted instantly from Totoro to the Midnight Harem of Teddy Bears.
"Ah!"
"Ugh—"
"Yah!"
Some girls who had been holding the dolls given by the Fusion Department, and who particularly liked cute things, immediately threw their dolls away in fright—even Mingri Xiang couldn't help but inhale sharply.
She had secretly asked her close friends to get her a Fusion Department doll too, but she never imagined it would turn out like this!
"Fusion Summon: Magic Toy – Scissors Wolf!"
Magic Toy – Scissors Wolf, Level 6, Dark Attribute, Demon Type, ATK 2000.
At this moment, Shen Shui Mao paid no attention to the outside noise; in his mind, the duel against Tiancheng Guang was the only thing that mattered.
Moreover, as a duelist, one should never be bound by a monster's appearance!
Tiancheng Guang had far more abstract monsters!
They were just a few slightly childhood-destroying monster cards—nothing significant!
"Activate the effect of Fluffy Toy – Cat: When this card is sent to the graveyard as Fusion material, return one 'Fusion' card from the graveyard to your hand."
He took the Fusion card from the graveyard back into his hand.
Some serious duel observers nodded continuously: "Responding to 'Fusion' with a pure, original 'Fusion'—the Fusion Department still has some backbone."
"This new Fusion Department head seems to have something."
Shen Shui Mao couldn't help but puff out his chest and lift his head.
Exactly!
That's right!
He too would show all the new students, as a Fusionist and Fusion duelist, their brand-new Fusion Department head!
"Activate the monster effect of Sharp Imp – Scissors in the graveyard!" He took a deep breath, holding up a card from his hand, "When this card is in the graveyard, you can return one card from your hand to the top of your deck, then Special Summon it in Defense Position!"
"Come forth, my Scissors!"
A demon composed entirely of multiple scissors, its eyes glowing crimson, revived from the graveyard.
Sharp Imp – Scissors, Level 3, Dark Attribute, Demon Type, DEF 800.
"Wow, that's such an effect!"
"So now we can Fusion again?"
"Chain Fusion! Awesome!"
Shen Shui Mao took a deep breath: "Correct—I activate the spell card again: Fusion!"
He raised a card from his hand and inserted it directly into the Spell Zone: "Fusion between Fluffy Animal – Bear in my hand and Sharp Imp – Scissors on the field!"
A cute, pink, winged giant bear appeared on the field; then the scissors demon tore open the fluffy bear's belly. Several emotionally sensitive people couldn't bear to watch, but soon, a demon bear that looked unmistakably like Freddy from Midnight Horror appeared on the field.
Magic Toy – Scissors Bear, Level 6, Dark Attribute, Demon Type, ATK 2200.
Tiancheng Guang glanced at the Scissors Bear.
He fused directly instead of activating the Bear's effect to search for a Toy Can? So he doesn't have that card.
"Wow, he summoned two Fusion monsters with over 2000 ATK at once!"
"So amazing!"
"But—" someone voiced their opinion, "Isn't it true that the Ancient Mechanical God can be Special Summoned without conditions if destroyed in battle, summoning the Ancient Mechanical Giant?
That monster has 3000 ATK—the same power as Blue-Eyes White Dragon! Even if you summon Fusion monsters, won't it be useless?"
"You're thinking too simply!" Shen Shui Mao shouted loudly, "As a Fusion duelist, you must understand your opponent's cards and prepare countermeasures in advance!
So—I just need to bypass the Ancient Mechanical God's effect!"
"How's that possible? Isn't it unaffected by any card effects?"
"Hehehe—simple: Just Tribute it!" He smirked, "This card can Tribute one monster on your opponent's field to Special Summon it onto your opponent's field!"
"I Tribute the Ancient Mechanical God to Special Summon—Satan Elder!"
A demon dressed like Santa Claus, carrying gifts, shoved the gift bag into the spot where the Ancient Mechanical God stood, forcibly displacing it.
"So now, the God's effect is indeed bypassed," Tiancheng Guang glanced sideways at Santa, unfazed, "But its DEF is 2500."
Satan Elder, Level 6, Light Attribute, Demon Type, DEF 2500.
"Moreover, if you don't destroy this monster of yours this turn, I can draw an extra card from my deck thanks to its effect," Tiancheng Guang said casually, "That's the price for its power to devour others' strong cards."
"Indeed, powerful cards always come with risks—but if you remove the risk, it's fine!" Shen Shui Mao shouted confidently, "Activate Normal Spell Card: 'Defense' Ban!"
"This card changes one face-up Defense Position monster on your opponent's field to Attack Position!" He pointed unsteadily at Tiancheng Guang's Santa Demon.
"That's a bit dangerous—" Tierra whispered in alarm.
Satan Elder def→atk, atk: 1200
"Hmph…"
Noticing Tierra's tense expression,
Tiancheng Guang let out a light laugh.
He had fully understood his opponent's strategy and mindset.
He wanted a quick win, relying on Scissors Wolf's multiple attack capability to finish in one turn, right?
He couldn't help but laugh out loud.
His opponent had indeed studied him deeply, and more importantly, his passion for Fusion and his exploration of dueling were completely unlike any previous Fusion Department members!
That made him very happy.
