"First card, Spell Card, Overload Future Fusion!" Tenjo Hikari revealed a Continuous Spell Card, "This card allows you to reveal a Fusion Card from your Extra Deck and send the Fusion Material to the Graveyard.
I reveal Meteor Black Dragon!"
"Meteor Black Dragon?" Fubuki chuckled upon seeing the card.
"I didn't expect you, Tenjo, to have this card, is it specifically to match the cards I set?"
Tenjo Hikari nodded.
Elsewhere, Hundred Dragon quietly lowered its head to ask its partner why they didn't activate the Trap, only for the furious Kujakujaku to retort that they must strike hard when the opponent's Fusion Monster appears.
"The Fusion Material is Red-Eyes Black Dragon and Meteor Dragon; I send Meteor Dragon from my Deck to the Graveyard," Tenjo Hikari continued swiftly, "Next, the second card, Equip Spell Card, Future Fusion!"
"This card allows you to directly select a Fusion Monster from your Extra Deck, send all of that monster's Fusion Materials to the Graveyard, and then perform a Fusion Summon! That Fusion Monster cannot attack that turn!"
Tenjo Hikari opened the Extra Deck and displayed one of the monsters: "I choose the Fusion Monster, Gem-Knight Prismaura!"
"Fusion Condition is a Gem-Knight monster and a Thunder-Type monster!"
"I send Gem-Knight Crystal and Thunder Dragon from the Deck to the Graveyard for a Fusion Summon!
Gem-Knight Prismaura!"
Gem-Knight Prismaura?
Seeing this monster, Tenjouin Fubuki, who was providing light for Tenjo Hikari, was momentarily stunned.
Since it's Future Fusion, logically, one could directly Fusion Summon Ultimate Ancient Gear Golem, why choose a Gem-Knight here?
Clearly, Gem-Knights should be able to use Brilliant Fusion, Scatter Fusion, and other cards, while preserving the rarer Future Fusion!
Gem-Knight Prismaura, LV 7, Earth Attribute, Thunder-Type, ATK 2450.
"Wow! Thunder Dragon is among the Fusion Materials!"
A幼小的声音在耳边回响.
原来如此.
Tenjouin Fubuki couldn't help but chuckle lightly.
Unexpectedly, Hikari outdid him this time, even though he should be the more flamboyant one.
"Prismaura has the ability to discard a Gem-Knight card to destroy a face-up card on the field; are you using that card to destroy Dark Simorgh?" Kujakujaku lifted its head, "How naive, we are warriors who guard the [Mountain], how could we not recognize a card like that!
Activate Trap Card, Icarus Attack!"
"By releasing one Winged Beast-Type monster on your field, you can target two cards on the field and activate it. Destroy those cards!"
Icarus Attack, even before Tenjo Hikari traveled through time, was occasionally seen in the RR and Blackwing series; it's representative of classic yet cost-effective cards.
"I release Harpie Channeler on the field to destroy your Future Fusion and Set Card!"
"Then at this moment, I chain with a Trap Card!" Faced with the situation, Tenjo Hikari didn't hesitate, "Senior, I'll use your card!"
"Go ahead and exert yourself!" Fubuki laughed heartily, "Activate Continuous Trap Card, Return of the Red-Eyes! If there is a [Red-Eyes] monster on your field, you can target a Normal Monster in your Graveyard and Special Summon it!
Come, Meteor Dragon!"
A red-eyed, turtle-like red dragon fell to the ground like a meteor from the sky.
"However, destruction continues!" Kujakujaku pointed at Tenjo Hikari with feathers like swords.
In the next moment, Harpie Channeler transformed into gigantic wings that stabbed into Tenjo Hikari's field like swords.
The Trap Card that had just activated its effect was immediately shattered, and at the same time, Future Fusion was also destroyed.
"Because Future Fusion was destroyed, the Fusion Monster on your field must also go to the Graveyard!"
Bang—
Gem-Knight Prismaura shattered instantly.
"Eh—"
"The Fusion Monster that was summoned with great difficulty disappeared just like that."
"Kujakujaku-sama seems really angry today."
Kujakujaku raised its head, speaking coldly: "For those of you who dared to enter [Mountain] without permission, it's already merciful of us not to immediately drive you away, yet you're here boasting about showing Duels to the children...
After you lose, I'll throw you into the gorge to be blasted by raging winds for a day!"
Is it like an angry kindergarten teacher.
Tenjouin Fubuki awkwardly laughed twice.
However, he then smiled and said, "Whether it's boasting, I'll show you soon, Spirit—don't forget, my junior here still has 4 unused Hand Cards."
"Four cards, could those four Magic Cards possibly continue the Fusion?"
"Of course—" Tenjo Hikari suddenly shouted, "Activate Spell Card Fusion Substitute!"
"This card is treated as [Fusion] in its card name, but it can only use monsters on the field as Fusion Material!"
"What!" Kujakujaku and Hundred Dragon exclaimed together, "In this situation—"
I see.
Fubuki watched Tenjo Hikari's moves, roughly understanding the strategy for this turn.
Because he already saw that the Set Card was "Return of the Red-Eyes," he twice chose Fusion cards involving Normal Monsters since he wasn't sure of the opponent's Set Card, so he prioritized fusing Prismaura to trick the opponent into activating a Trap.
Even though it's all Fusion, Tenjo Hikari's mind remains extremely clear, with his own calculation and strategy.
"I will fuse Red-Eyes Black Dragon on the field and Meteor Dragon on the field for a Fusion Summon!"
"The black dragon symbolizing possibility—"
"The legendary Monster!"
"Meteor Black Dragon!"
"Roar!!!"
Fiery flames rose in the environment, and a massive black dragon streaming with magma descended like a fireball from the sky, crashing on the mountainous terrain, scaring many mature Spirits to protect the young Spirits.
Meteor Black Dragon, LV 8, Fire Attribute, Dragon-Type, ATK 3500.
"Wow!!!"
"He used three cards for two Fusion Summons!"
"It's completely different than the Fusion that the older brothers and sisters showed before!"
Tenjo Hikari heard the cheers around him, smiled, then raised the card, shouting, "It's not over yet, little guys! Activate the effect of Fusion Substitute in the Graveyard, banish it from the Graveyard, return a Fusion Monster from the Graveyard to the Deck, and draw a card.
I return Gem-Knight Prismaura to the Deck. Then draw a card.
Then—Spell Card, Thunder Dragon Fusion!"
"Thunder Dragon Fusion?!"
"Wow!? Wow wow wow—"
Even Thunder Dragon roared, surprised, as it looked at the card.
"This card can return the decided Fusion Materials of a Thunder-Type Fusion Monster from the field, Graveyard, and Banished Zone to the Deck to perform a Fusion Summon of a Thunder-Type Fusion Monster!
The Fusion Conditions haven't changed and remain a Gem-Knight monster and a Thunder-Type monster!
I return the Gem-Knight Crystal and Thunder Dragon from the Graveyard to the Deck for a Fusion Summon!
Come before me again, Gem-Knight Prismaura!"
The revived Captain Crystal once again stood before Tenjo Hikari; this repeatedly resurrecting scene reminded Tierra of countless past unpleasant memories, causing a shiver.
"Wow! That's too much Fusion!"
"And he even resurrected his own Fusion Monster!"
"Ugh..."
Sparks of electricity circled Tenjo Hikari, falling into a rare, quiet moment.
"Discard Gem-Knight Fusion from my hand, activate Prismaura's effect, destroy your face-up Dark Simorgh on the field."
"Ugh—"
Prismaura raised its shield, reflecting light onto the dark bird-beast, and in no time, the large bird was purified in the light, disappearing from the field!
"Ugh..." Hundred Dragon's claws caught its dragon mouth in awe, "What a powerful Fusion Master."
Even Kujakujaku couldn't help falling into silence, not responding, evidently really considering Tenjo Hikari's actions—of course, when looking at Fubuki, it still had a fierce look.
