Who Let Him Play Yu-Gi-Oh! novel Chapter 1006

Chapter 1006: Chapter 1006: The Three of Us

Butterfly Dagger – Elma!

"First, add Butterfly Dagger – Elma to my hand," Kira said. "Royal Magical Library now has three counters.

I remove all three counters to draw a card."

Kira: "Now, equip ’Butterfly Dagger – Elma’ to Gearfried!"

"Butterfly Dagger – Elma’s effect: the equipped monster gains 300 ATK.

I equip Butterfly Dagger to ’Gearfried the Iron Knight’, increasing his ATK by 300."

[Gearfried the Iron Knight | ATK 1800 → 2100]

"Now, Gearfried’s effect: when an Equip Card is equipped to this card, destroy that Equip Card."

The dagger had barely touched Gearfried’s hand before it exploded into golden fragments, vanishing from the field.

"Butterfly Dagger’s other effect: if this Equip Card is destroyed while equipped to a monster, it returns to the owner’s hand."

Kira waved the Equip Card, showing it had returned to his hand.

"Now, activate Butterfly Dagger – Elma again!"

Now the Wicked God understood.

This is an infinite loop!

Each time Elma is activated, Royal Magical Library gets a Spell Counter. Then, Gearfried’s effect destroys Elma, which returns to the hand, allowing the process to repeat infinitely. Royal Magical Library can remove three counters to draw a card, so this becomes unlimited card draw.

Infinite hand size means infinite possibilities. The Wicked Gods might see themselves as invincible, but only when resources are equal.

Even if a god’s resistances aren’t absolute, or even if they are, infinite resources can still find a way around them.

"Awesome, Kira! You set up an infinite loop so fast!" Jaden praised.

Even Yubel couldn’t help but comment: "Your friend’s dueling, erm..."

She wanted to criticize, but couldn’t think of anything positive to say. Considering Kira’s close relationship with Jaden—and the fact she couldn’t beat him herself—she decided to keep quiet.

"Trying to use an infinite loop against the gods?" the Wicked God sneered. "Nice idea, if you can pull it off.

Activate set card! Trap Card—’Treacherous Trap Hole’!"

A gigantic pit opened up on Kira’s field!

"Treacherous Trap Hole can only be activated if I have no Trap Cards in my graveyard," the Wicked God said. "Right now, there are none. Its effect goes through!

Destroy any two monsters on your opponent’s field!"

Kaiba said, "I see—destroying the key components to break the loop."

The Wicked God said, "The loop relies on those two monsters’ effects. They’re both gone.

Destroy ’Gearfried the Iron Knight’ and ’Royal Magical Library’!"

A terrifying suction erupted from the pit, visible as a white, translucent whirlwind—like an invisible giant hand dragging both Gearfried and Library into the void.

With two explosions, smoke and dust billowed from the pit. When it cleared, the monsters and the pit itself were gone.

"Ah, what a shame," Jaden sighed.

If the loop had gone through, Kira could have gone for a one-turn kill. Jaden had no doubt that, with his entire deck in hand, Kira wouldn’t give the Wicked God a chance to summon his remaining two gods.

Kaiba remarked, "Now things aren’t looking good for us."

Indeed. Not only did Kira fail to draw his whole deck, but his monsters were wiped out. Since Gearfried was destroyed while not equipped, Elma also went to the graveyard (since the condition for returning to hand wasn’t met).

Kira said, "Then I set two cards and end my turn."

Behind the Wicked God, the Eraser’s shadow commented, "He really is dangerous. First turn, lockdown; second turn, infinite loop..."

"Indeed."

The Avatar nodded.
