Chapter 1008: Twilight Sunset

"Lemon Magician Girl's direct attack!"

Facing the Magician Girl's direct attack, Fake Leo's expression was cold, and he said gloomily: "Then at this moment, I activate my set card, the Trap Card 'Meteor Fall'!"

"I select one Synchro Monster from the Graveyard, its DEF becomes 0, it is Special Summoned to the field in Defense Position, and its monster effects are negated."

A beam of light shot out from Fake Leo's Graveyard.

"Reviving 'Power Tool Dragon' from the Graveyard!"

A gloomy wind carrying the smell of machine oil swirled across the battlefield. The Power Tool Dragon crawling out of the Graveyard vortex was unrecognizable. Its originally gleaming alloy armor was covered in spiderweb-like cracks, its left-arm power claw hung limp, held together only by a few cables, and hydraulic oil dripped from its joints like black blood. Those joints that once meshed precisely now made creaking sounds like rusted door hinges. The head sensor's right eye could only emit a faint red glow, flickering on and off like a faulty light bulb.

Even if revived, the mechanical dragon at this moment was like a marionette with its soul sucked out; every half-step it moved caused tiny gear parts to fall from its body, knocking out a creepy metallic echo in the silent night.

【Power Tool Dragon, DEF 0】

"DEF is 0, and effects are negated." Fujiki You Xuan chuckled, "This won't be able to block the Magician Girl's attack, you know."

"I know!"

Fake Leo followed by flipping over his second backrow card.

"Therefore, I continue to activate my set card, the Trap Card 'Synchro Barrier'!"

"I Tribute one Synchro Monster on my field, and until the end of the next turn, all battle and effect damage I take becomes 0!"

He pointed to the damaged Power Tool Dragon that had just been revived on the field.

"Power Tool, become the barrier that protects Luna!"

The mechanical dragon's pair of mechanical red eyes, which had already extinguished, flashed briefly, and then its body disassembled into a transparent barrier. Lemon girl's magic impact slammed entirely onto the barrier, washing over it like flowing water, failing to cause any damage.

"Oh? Sacrificing yourself to protect someone important; that Power Tool is exactly your incarnation." Fujiki You Xuan chuckled, "Protecting your sister no matter what... right?"

"That's right!"

That Fake Leo patted his chest hard.

"I will definitely protect Luna well, no matter when or where!"

However, facing his brother's touching heartfelt words, the gloomy Luna behind him only said coldly: "This is what you, as a scarecrow, should do in the first place; don't make it sound like it's something great, Leo."

"O-okay." Leo hung his head.

As expected, even if they are said to be copies, the restoration of the original's characteristics can be said to be quite vivid.

Zone's personality replication technology is indeed worthy of being called black technology. Every copy machine he creates can almost pass for the real thing, completely replacing the original. If it weren't for having this level of ability, Zone wouldn't have chosen to erase his own original personality and identity, attempting to save the world under the identity of "Savior Yusei Fudo."

"The protection effect of Synchro Barrier lasts until the End Phase of the next turn, so any of my attacks during this period are meaningless."

"Then the Battle Phase ends; I'm not attacking."

Fujiki You Xuan pointed to the Lemon girl on the field again. "Lemon Magician Girl's monster effect activates. Once per turn, I Tribute a 'Magician Girl' other than this card on the field, and add one Spellcaster-Type monster from my Deck to my hand."

"I Tribute 'Apple Magician Girl' and add the second 'Kiwi Magician Girl' from my Deck to my hand."

The Lemon girl let out a cute shout of "Ha," and pointed her staff to the side. A transparent magic circle opened at the Apple girl's feet, and the girl disappeared into it as a red light. Then, a card popped out from the Deck, which Fujiki You Xuan drew into his hand.

"Turn end."

Fake Leo: "Searched for a second Kiwi... Heh, even though it's a Level 5 monster, it only has 1800 ATK; it's not something to be afraid of at all."

The gloomy loli Luna said in a deep voice again: "Leo, you're starting again, always reckless and brainless. That Magician Girl must also hide some nasty abilities."

"I know, Luna." Fake Leo was unconvinced, "This isn't called reckless and brainless; this is... this is the power of courage! In dueling, as long as you firmly believe, you can definitely move forward!"

"My turn, draw!"

At this moment, the scene where both sides were fighting also changed again.

"The moment I enter the Standby Phase of this turn, the Fairy Tale field has also continued to evolve!" Fake Leo said, "The fairy tale story enters the third chapter, the third Fairy Tale field has activated!"

"This field is, 'Fairy Tale Chapter 3 - Twilight Sunset'!!!"

The afterglow of the sunset flowed slowly like honey, and the scene of the fairy tale world began to undergo wonderful changes. The originally scorching bright sun gradually faded, replaced by a warm and gentle twilight tone. The candy-colored buildings on both sides of the street gradually dissipated as if erased by an eraser, replaced by a quiet magic forest, where firefly-like faint light flickered between the branches and leaves of towering ancient trees.

The sun in the sky also completely changed its appearance; its angry and twisted face had relaxed, and the scorching fiery red faded into a gentle orange-yellow. It yawned lazily, its eyes half-open and half-closed, and even its originally upright flame eyebrows hung down softly. A few small 'zzz' sleep symbols even appeared on the edge of the sun, floating gently with its even breathing. Occasionally, one or two clouds would drift by, mischievously covering its dozing face, as if covering the sun with a thin quilt.

"The effect of the third field, Twilight Sunset, is: once per turn, I can Special Summon one Synchro Monster from my Graveyard in Defense Position!"

Fake Leo raised his somewhat huge Duel Disk with his small arms.

"Revive once again from the Graveyard, Power Tool Dragon!"

The sun in the sky burst with the light of the sunset, and the Power Tool Dragon, which had died repeatedly, was forced to work overtime again, returning to Leo's field.

【Power Tool Dragon, DEF 2500】

"Next, I activate the Spell Card 'Burial Goods Treasure'." Fake Leo said, "I banish the Equip Spell 'Axe of Despair', 'Twin Swords of Flashing Light - Tryce', and the Field Spell 'Fairy Tale Prologue - Journey's Morning Light' from the Graveyard, and draw two cards from my Deck."

He drew two cards, then showed a look of joy: "It's here, it's here, Luna! This way, I can also summon your..."

But before he could finish, he was ruthlessly interrupted by Fake Luna: "You talk too much, Leo; just summon it quickly."

"Oh, oh!"

Fake Leo immediately puffed out his chest.

"Watch closely, this is the power of Luna and me working together!"
