Chapter 314

Hikari Tenjou should have thought of it long ago.

As a scholar at the Magical Scientist Fusion Research Institute, it was only natural for the Mathematician to use a Magical Scientist deck.

He himself had obtained quite a few Fusion Monsters from him through Magical Scientist puzzles, and there were several Flame Swordsmen; it would be too strange if Magical Scientist didn't give his friends and employees something for "self-defense" when they left.

After everyone realized the terror of the Mathematician's tactics, no one treated the Mathematician as someone joining in the fun or deliberately coming to drag them down anymore; they realized that this duel, no matter from which aspect, was absolutely not "play."

This isn't a kind old grandfather at all!?

This is a terrifying old bastard!

"Good! Really good!" The Empress couldn't help laughing out loud, "Really good, Daichi Misawa! The teammates and opponents you chose for me are all very good!!"

The Empress was finally a bit satisfied.

This is passionate enough, exciting enough!

The Mathematician laughed ho ho twice more, took two cards from his hand, and placed them in the covered zone.

"Cover two cards, turn end."

He said, and added: "During the End Phase of the turn Mirage Knight battles, it returns to the deck."

Mirage Knight's body gradually became illusory and dissipated, disappearing like a bubble after a while.

"Then, Fusion Recycling Plant's effect, during your/opponent's turn, I can return a fusion material used this turn to my hand." Hikari Tenjou opened the graveyard and took one from it, "Of course, still Shaddoll Lizard."

The Empress looked at Hikari Tenjou's hand cards.

Unknowingly, there are so many again!

She frowned.

Endurance battles seem very unfavorable for them!

"Good! Finally my turn again!" Gloria was full of strength, high-spirited.

In the past two turns, Hikari Tenjou not only caused damage, recycled resources, but even restricted the opponent's card advancement; it could be said that he didn't miss a single point, which made her very excited, couldn't help but want to perform, and compare with Hikari Tenjou.

Anyway, she still had fusion materials on her field; at worst, she would fuse the Empress again, and then attack that dangerous Magical Scientist, which could also cause quite a bit of damage.

If she could draw some useful card this turn to resolve the Empress, that would be even better!

"My turn, draw card!"

She drew a card, glanced at it, and her eyes lit up.

Beautiful!

The cards she drew could just resolve this scene!

"At this moment, I want to activate a trap card."

But unexpectedly, after Gloria finished drawing the card, the Mathematician directly opened the covered card.

"Trap Card, Mind Crush!"

Wow...

Hikari Tenjou raised his eyebrows.

This old man is nasty.

"Mind Crush is a card that guesses the card in the opponent's hand to destroy it." Misawa Daichi explained this card.

Actually, there was no need for him to say; the students present basically all knew this card.

After all, this card is still quite famous.

Just—

The problem is, normally, very few people can successfully activate this card's effect.

After all, guessing the opponent's hand is really a bit difficult.

But today is different.

One of the cards in Gloria's hand is a card everyone knows!

"Spell Card, Fusion."

Gloria looked at her hand, her face serious, but there was no other way, so she could only reveal one and send it to the graveyard.

"Eh? This doesn't seem to have any meaning?" Some students were confused.

"Why?"

"Because, look—there is Hikari Tenjou's Field Spell card, Fusion Recycling Plant, on the field, so Lady Gloria only needs to discard 1 card in hand and add Fusion from the graveyard to the hand."

"Eh, that's right?"

Gloria frowned.

The reason is very simple, and that is the hand card problem.

The only card she drew that could crack the opponent's Empress was a trap card, "Rescue."

This is a special trap card.

Activate when a card targeting an 【Amazoness】 monster on the field is activated. The targeted monster card returns to the hand, and 1 other monster is Special Summoned from the hand.

Yes, this is an "Amazoness" card that can act on the whole field!

Use the Quick-Play Spell card in her hand to target the opponent's Amazoness Empress, then chain this trap card, and one can return the Empress, then Special Summon 1 monster from the hand, earning a Special Summon for free, and resolving the Empress.

But there is one problem, this card has two major restrictions.

First, there must be a card that can target the opponent's card; second, there must also be a monster card in the hand!

Her hand cards are: Rush, Amazoness Swords Woman, Rescue.

Discarding any one of the three to get Fusion would destroy the entire chain!

Now, it's stuck here.

However...

She looked at the covered card beside her.

The Monster Reborn she covered last turn, Hikari Tenjou didn't use it, but chose to keep it, and it returned to her hand.

She could choose to Special Summon Amazoness Warrior Chief from the Empress's graveyard.

Because her own deck is also an Amazoness deck, using its effect can search for Amazoness Spell/Trap cards or directly cover a Fusion.

But the problem is.

She looked at the deck.

【Fusion】 is not enough.

She didn't put three Fusion cards because she updated her deck and had Spiritualist and other cards that could assist, so she could save the Fusion card slots and put in some other cards.

Similarly, reviving Hikari Tenjou's dinosaur is useless.

What to do?

She bit her lip gently, hesitating.

"Gloria."

Just as she was thinking, she suddenly heard a voice.

She looked up at Hikari Tenjou.

Why did this guy take the initiative to talk to her!?

She thought Hikari Tenjou was really deciding to fight two people alone because of the faction issue.

"We are in a tag duel." Hikari Tenjou sighed, raised his chin gently, and said to Gloria, "As a normal Fusion Duelist who pursues Fusion, I hate the Fusion Army very much.

But you are not those Fusion Army members who have really committed unforgivable evil."

Gloria frowned and looked at Hikari Tenjou, while the surrounding Fusion Army members also cooled down.

The Empress looked at this scene curiously.

Invasion?

Hostile?

Humans also have quite a few interesting things.

Then, under everyone's gaze, Hikari Tenjou raised his right hand, clenched it into a fist: "And since that's the case, then you are not people I absolutely reject, or even too lazy to cooperate with—because, Fusion embraces everything!"

Gloria's eyes widened more and more.

Grace covered her mouth with both hands, whispering in surprise.

"Everyone present and spirits, since you still have doubts in your hearts, then I will declare it again.

Fusion is the noblest summoning method in the world!"

"Wow..."

"What great courage..."

"Hikari, does Hikari Tenjou really not care at all what others say?"

The actions of the Fusion Army caused Fusion users to face huge public opinion pressure.

Although this trend will always pass, at this time of being in the limelight, Hikari Tenjou dared to say it in front of so many people.

It can only be said that Hikari Tenjou doesn't care about anything else at all!

"This is not an excuse, reason, or slogan, but what I firmly believe!

So—"

Hikari Tenjou turned back, looking at his opponent with burning eyes: "No matter what happens, I will not change."

"You don't need to doubt me either."

Gloria clenched her right hand into a fist, her glove making a screeching sound because of her strength.

Did he see it?

But it doesn't matter anymore!

"Interesting, interesting, Hikari Tenjou—sure enough, sure enough, fighting with a guy like you makes one's heart pound!"

What faction, what Fusion Army or not, invasion or not.

Their sisters don't care about those things at all!

"Good, then Hikari Tenjou—let me use your power!"
