Chapter 1319: The Head of the Three Swordsmen

The head of the three swordsmen of Orichalcos, and also the number one person under Dartz in the organization, Rafael, originally hugged his arms and leaned against the edge of the highway railing to close his eyes and rest, at this moment suddenly opened his eyes slowly and looked at the figure walking towards this place not far away.

"Yo."

Fujiki You Xuan walked slowly and waved at him familiarly. Those who didn't know might think that these two were old acquaintances who hadn't seen each other for a long time.

Rafael frowned slightly: "Who are you?"

Rafael felt strange. He had sensed someone approaching in this direction early on, but he originally thought it should be the Nameless Pharaoh. Because with the help of Orichalcos, he vaguely sensed a faint breath, that was the breath similar to the Millennium Items, it should be the Pharaoh.

But the young man standing in front of him at this time was clearly not the Pharaoh, and he felt that he didn't seem to have seen this person in the information mastered by Orichalcos so far.

"Sorry, the Pharaoh has official business to deal with and can't come, I'm here to take the shift." Fujiki You Xuan smiled and showed the Duel Disk in his hand, "The head of the three swordsmen of Orichalcos, Rafael, I've heard of your name for a long time, and I've long wanted to try it with you."

Rafael frowned and hesitated for a few seconds, then also unfolded his standard Duel Disk limited to Orichalcos. The lights lit up, and all the monster zones were lit up along the steel lines.

"Fine, no matter who you are, my task is just to maintain this barrier." Rafael said lightly, "Soon, everyone in this barrier will become a sacrifice for the ultimate ritual..."

Fujiki You Xuan interrupted: "Used to revive that tricky snake of Orichalcos, right?"

Rafael was taken aback, as if surprised why this person knew so much.

"Don't be too surprised, I'm just a passing duelist... But you're right, your task is just to maintain the barrier, and I just want to break this green shell, that's all. Then come on."

As a duelist who can beat Yugi in the original work, even if there are special reasons, this person is at least a King-level duelist and is not an opponent to be careless about.

Then, as a respect for an opponent of this level, Fujiki You Xuan also wanted to try the top deck he just got this time.

He took out a deck from one of the several card boxes behind him and shook it in his hand: "It's better to use this one to fight you."

As he said this, he inserted it into the Duel Disk. The Duel Disk was also activated, and the light blue data stream rolled over the field, as if covering the duel field of both sides into the realm of the duel.

"Duel!" x2

【Fujiki You Xuan, LP 4000】

【Rafael, LP 4000】

Both sides draw five cards each.

"I'll go first, draw card."

Fujiki You Xuan drew a card, smiled mysteriously after scanning the five cards in his hand, picked out one of the cards and inserted it into the Duel Disk.

"It's more interesting to use this card to fight you... Activate Continuous Spell 'Card of Sanctity'. This card can only be activated by discarding five cards from my hand, draw two cards from the deck."

He said, discarding all the remaining five cards into the graveyard in one breath, and then drew two cards.

"In exchange, as long as this card exists in the Spell & Trap Zone," Fujiki You Xuan said, "I can draw two cards from the deck every turn during my Draw Phase."

Rafael's cold expression clearly showed a look of surprise.

Because "Card of Sanctity", this card is exactly the card he usually loves to use. To think that the other party would actually have the same choice for cards as himself. This card was an animation-exclusive card for a long time, and it was only made into a real card many years later. However, even if this card is made into a real card, it is not very useful. It must discard all cards in hand to activate. Although it can draw two cards every turn, for the increasingly high-speed modern Yu-Gi-Oh that often decides the outcome in one or two turns, it is definitely a loss, and there is almost no chance to earn back the cost before the person has already perished.

Not to mention that if this card is blown away by the opponent's Harpie's Feather Duster or something immediately after activation, it is a direct loss to the grandmother's house. So although this card made Rafael look unique and novel in the animation, it is actually not easy to use in actual combat.

Of course, Yu-Gi-Oh also has a characteristic, that is, whether most cards are easy to use is relative, it can only be said that "there are few applicable situations", and it is not "useless under any conditions".

Discarding all five cards in one breath, Fujiki You Xuan set one card in the front row and one in the back row.

"Set one monster in face-down Defense Position in the front row." Fujiki You Xuan said, "Set one card in the back row, turn ends."

The six cards in his hand became clean in an instant, not a single one left.

Rafael: "My turn, draw card."

Scanning the six cards in his hand, this time Rafael didn't seem to draw Card of Sanctity, so he directly performed a monster summon: "Normal Summon 'Guardian Kay'est', in Defense Position."

The blue-blue ghost-like monster was summoned to the field, with white bandages wrapped around its wrists, a waterfall-like fiery red long hair, bare upper body, arms crossed, sharp blades protruding from its shoulders, squatting to block in front of it.

【Guardian Kay'est, DEF 2200】

Fujiki You Xuan said: "Oh? Not activating the Seal of Orichalcos?"

Rafael said calmly: "I won't use the Seal of Orichalcos for just any nameless person. If you want me to use it, prove that you have that strength."

Fujiki You Xuan thought to himself, you probably didn't draw it...

But thinking about it, in the original work, Rafael and Valon also said "I don't intend to use the barrier", and they did have duels that did not use the barrier.

Among them, Rafael is even more cunning, not only does he not use it himself, but he also shoves it to the opponent to use, forcing the barrier together with the "whoever uses it dies" cosmic curse to offset the protagonist's halo, contributing to one of the few defeats of Yugi in the TV series.

But apart from that, the three swordsmen of Orichalcos in the animation seem to be able to draw the barrier 100% if they really want to use it, which can probably be attributed to the blessing of the destiny of these three people and the barrier itself.

If they really don't want to use it, maybe they won't draw it.

Rafael: "Next, activate Equip Spell 'Gravity Axe - Grarl' from my hand, equip it to 'Guardian Kay'est'!"

The heavy battle axe rotated twice, fell from the sky, and nailed into the ground with a thud. The blue ghost guardian pulled out the heavy axe and held it firmly in his hand.

"Gravity Axe increases the ATK of the equipped monster by 500." Rafael said, "And as long as this axe exists on the field, all monsters on the opponent's field will be suppressed by gravity waves, and monsters on the opponent's field cannot change their battle position."

Transparent gravity waves were released from that heavy battle axe and spread to Fujiki You Xuan's entire field, seemingly forming an invisible suppression.

"And the Gravity Axe can summon its true master to descend!" Rafael said, "When there is a Gravity Axe on the field, this card can be Special Summoned to the field!" (Animation effect)

As he said this, the monster card in his hand had been slapped onto the Duel Disk.
