Chapter 474: Classic Combination

"Magical Exemplar, destroy the set card in the back row!"

At this time, Magical Exemplar's long sword had recovered into his hand at some point, magic gathered on the sword, turning into a crescent-shaped sword Qi and slashing straight forward.

"The trap is also activated at this moment," the Supreme King said. "Trap card 'Pandora's Box'. When a Spell/Trap card on my field becomes the target of a card effect, transfer the target to this card, then draw two cards from the deck." (Original card)

The sword Qi flew halfway and turned abruptly, slashing across this set card with one sword. The Supreme King took the opportunity to draw two cards.

"Defended it, huh." Fujiki You Xuan said. "Then Silent Magician, attack 'Evil HERO Malicious Edge'."

Although the Evil Claw returned to the hand in the previous turn, the self-restriction of Evil Claw was that it could not be activated from the hand in the turn it returned to the hand. So he couldn't equip Malicious Edge with Evil Claw again, couldn't use the equipment to substitute for destruction, and couldn't use it to blow up Fujiki You Xuan's cards.

But he also had other moves: "Then activate the set card, Trap card 'Power Frame'."

"Can only be activated when a monster on my field is selected as an attack target by a monster with higher ATK than itself. That attack is negated!"

A frame like a cube appeared in front of Malicious Edge. Silent Magician's full-power magic blast was all absorbed into the frame, filling it into pure energy, like a dazzling white sun.

"And then, this card is equipped to the monster that was selected as the attack target. The ATK of the equipped monster increases by the difference in ATK between the attacking monster and the attacked monster at the time of the battle!"

The frame merged into Malicious Edge's body, along with the dazzling magic inside. Malicious Edge roared "Ahhh," as if he was full of power at this moment.

【Evil HERO Malicious Edge, ATK 2600 -> ATK 3500】

"Gained power comparable to Silent," Fujiki You Xuan narrowed his eyes. "In this way, in the next turn, if you equip 'Evil Claw' again, the ATK will exceed Silent... not bad."

"Then I set one card, turn end."

"My turn, draw," the Supreme King revealed the equipment as expected. "Equip Spell 'Evil Claw'. Equip to 'Evil HERO Malicious Edge', increase ATK by 300."

【Evil HERO Malicious Edge, ATK 3500 -> ATK 3800】

"Then Normal Summon 'Evil HERO Infernal Gainer'."

【Evil HERO Infernal Gainer, ATK 1600】

"Battle," the Supreme King shouted. "'Evil HERO Malicious Edge', attack 'Silent Magician LV8'!"

Malicious Edge, who had gained the equipment boost, let out a shout, finally surpassing Silent Magician, who had been suppressing him all along—it felt like he finally felt proud, and his sharp claws grabbed straight toward Silent.

"Then activate the set card," Fujiki You Xuan said. "Trap card 'Magic Cylinder'! When the opponent's monster declares an attack, negate the monster's attack and inflict damage equal to the ATK of the attacking monster to the opponent."

So strong, too strong, I must Magic Cylinder immediately!

The Supreme King's golden eyes moved slightly, then he continued coldly: "Then activate the set card."

"Trap card 'Natural Reflection'! The effect damage directly inflicted by the opponent this turn is all reflected back as damage to the opponent."

The sharp blades thrown by Malicious Edge all flew into the Magic Cylinder, returning along the original path from the other cylinder. But a reflection barrier appeared on the Supreme King's field, and the sharp blades all over the sky hit the barrier and reflected back like light hitting a mirror.

I reflect your reflection!

Three thousand eight hundred ATK reflection damage, whichever side took this blow would be a fatal wound!

At the moment of the critical juncture, Fujiki You Xuan revealed another hand card: "Then discard 'Winged Kuriboh' from my hand. In the turn this card is discarded from the hand, the effect damage I take becomes 0. This effect can also be activated in the opponent's turn."

The white cotton ball jumped onto the field, releasing a holy milky white barrier. The continuously reflected attacks of Malicious Edge all melted on the barrier, ending the reflection game of this turn.

But although the effect damage was negated, Magic Cylinder had already negated Malicious Edge's attack.

But the Supreme King was still calm. "Then activate the effect of 'Evil HERO Infernal Gainer'," the Supreme King shouted. "This card's effect can only be activated during my Battle Phase."

"Banish this card from the game, select one Fiend-type monster on my field, the selected monster gains the power to attack twice in the same Battle Phase as long as it is face-up on the field!" (Original effect)

Permanently granting the teammate the effect of "Cyber Twin Dragon," the physical card effect is basically the same, but the timing of activation has been adjusted. The effect of Infernal Gainer in the anime could only be activated during the Battle Phase, but the physical card was changed to the Main Phase.

The difference is that Infernal Gainer in the anime could attack once by itself, and then banish itself during the Battle Phase to grant the teammate an additional attack. The physical card can't, it can only be banished during the Main Phase to activate the ability.

"Banish Infernal Gainer from the game, Malicious Edge can attack twice in one turn," the Supreme King shouted. "The second attack! Attack 'Silent Magician LV8'!"

The teammate's sacrifice granted Malicious Edge the power of two attacks, and the sharp claws slashed out again, finally breaking through Silent's defense line and slashing her to death.

【Fujiki You Xuan, LP 3300 -> LP 3000】

"Then activate the Continuous Spell 'Nightmare's Mirage'," the Supreme King said. "During the Standby Phase of the next opponent's turn, draw cards from the deck until the hand becomes four cards."

"Then set one card, turn end."

"Classic Mirage plus one set card," Fujiki You Xuan smiled: "It seems that even after becoming the Supreme King, the classic combination hasn't been left behind."

This book was recently updated on ##!! Update!

"I don't know what you misunderstood, but I am not the guy you know," the Supreme King said coldly.

Fujiki You Xuan shrugged: "If you say so, then so be it."

"Then my turn, draw."

Supreme King: "Standby Phase, I draw cards from the deck until my hand becomes four cards."

Fujiki You Xuan: "Main Phase. Activate the Spell card 'Graceful Charity', draw three cards from the deck, then discard two hand cards."

"The effect of 'Scholarly Spirit' discarded just now, send it to the Graveyard and draw one card from the deck."

Fujiki You Xuan then revealed the card he searched to his hand in the previous turn: "Activate the Spell card 'Spellbook of Power' again. Place a magic counter on a card on my field that can have a magic counter placed on it."

"Place a magic counter on 'Magical Exemplar' again."

【Magical Exemplar, ATK 1600 -> ATK 1900】

"Then remove the magic counter on Magical Exemplar, destroy one Spell or Trap card on the opponent's back row!"

The Supreme King frowned slightly: "Magical Exemplar and Breaker the Magical Warrior, can they form a combo that consistently destroys the back row every turn? Then I activate my face-down card, the Quick-Play Spell 'Emergency Provisions'.

By sending Spell and Trap cards to the Graveyard, I gain 1000 Life Points for each."
