Who Let Him Play Yu-Gi-Oh! novel Chapter 1005

Chapter 1005: Chapter 1005: Regret Next Turn

"This turn, let the gods descend!"

The Wicked God let out a low growl and played another card from his hand.

"Quick-Play Spell—Quick Summon!

In addition to your regular normal summon, you can normal summon a monster from your hand!" (Anime card)

Jaden’s eyes widened. "Damn! A Quick-Play Spell, and we’re still in the Battle Phase!"

Kaiba muttered, "You’re summoning the god during the Battle Phase?"

The next moment, the Wicked God raised his illusory arm high.

"I tribute ’Darklord Superbia’, ’Darklord Ixchel’, and ’Darklord Edeh Arae’ to Tribute Summon!"

A rift tore open in the pitch-black field, a black fissure overhead. The crushing pressure made one feel as if every joint in their body was crying out in agony; the force seemed intent on grinding bones to dust.

The Wicked God glanced over his shoulder and said indifferently, "Then, today, you’ll be the first to go."

A giant phantom shadow flashed through the darkness and snorted, "Looks like you guys won’t even get a chance to appear."

The Wicked God raised his voice:

"Embodiment of Ultimate Terror, the God of Terror—

—The Wicked Dreadroot!!!"

A demonic horn pierced the veil of reality. A demon giant, covered in chilling bones, descended with an overwhelming aura of darkness, instilling the purest terror deep within everyone’s hearts.

[The Wicked Dreadroot | ATK 4000]

Kaiba sneered, "So the stray dog ran here to struggle for survival?"

The newly-summoned Dreadroot was infuriated by these words, slowly turning and glaring at Kaiba.

"Don’t get cocky, Seto Kaiba," Dreadroot growled. "You’re next."

Kaiba chuckled, "I’m looking forward to it. I just hope you get the chance."

He shot a glance at Kira.

If it’s that guy, even facing a god shouldn’t make a difference.

Thinking this, Kaiba narrowed his eyes.

Don’t let me down.

Dreadroot declared, "This kind of guy? I could crush him in seconds!"

The god’s embodiment waved a hand, "Battle continues. Since Dreadroot was summoned during the Battle Phase, it can still attack.

Attack ’Silent Magician LV8’ with ’The Wicked Dreadroot’!"

He paused, eyes narrowing.

"Furthermore, as long as Dreadroot is on the field, the ATK and DEF of all other monsters are halved!"

A wave of terror crashed down on Silent Magician, whose face turned ashen, fingers clutching her staff to barely remain standing—but her magical power was drastically weakened.

[Silent Magician LV8 | ATK 3500 → 1750]

"Does this Wicked God really have such a terrifying ability?" Jaden exclaimed.

Gods already have strong effect resistance. If you want to beat this Wicked God in battle, you’d need a monster with at least 8000 ATK.

An 8000 ATK monster... not impossible, actually.

Jaden tilted his head, considering: with his various decks—Neos, Elemental Heroes, even Evil Heroes now—summoning a monster with 8000 ATK really wasn’t out of the question.

Back when he first entered the academy, seeing a 4000 ATK monster would make him shout, "Obelisk-level power!" But now, as he stood higher, his perspective had changed.

But if this attack goes through, it’ll be a huge blow for Kira.

"...Then I discard ’Kuriboh’ from my hand," Kira said. "I reduce the battle damage to 0."

Dreadroot’s fist came crashing down, shattering Silent Magician’s defensive barrier and engulfing her in darkness. The destructive cyclone swept toward Kira, but was blocked by the sudden appearance of Kuriboh.

"Tch, barely blocked the damage," Wicked God said. "But the monster’s still destroyed by battle."
