Who Let Him Play Yu-Gi-Oh! novel Chapter 1136

Chapter 1136: Chapter 1136: Core

Primo only had one copy of his core card, ’Meklord Emperor Wisel’. Still, even with its components sent to the grave, if he drew "Wise Core" and blew it up, he could resurrect the whole Emperor from the grave in one turn.

But if he hadn’t used that counter trap and let Macro Cosmos resolve earlier, the duel would already be over—he’d have no hope left.

Primo’s entire deck was built around Wisel. All his cards either boosted the Emperor or supported it with spells and traps. Losing Wisel meant nearly his entire deck was deadweight.

Now, staring at the burning Lava Golem and the facedown Macro Cosmos he’d just countered, Primo felt a chill down his spine.

Damn, that was close.

Kira narrowed his eyes, grinning as he watched Primo’s raging face, clearly savoring his handiwork.

For the prideful Primo, one of the Three Pure Nobles, being toyed with like a monkey was intolerable. But Kira wasn’t just enjoying it for fun—he was now certain of his deduction.

Primo only had one ’Meklord Emperor Wisel’.

The anime hinted as much, but this world might not always echo the animation. Now he was sure: no "Wisel Mark 2".

Yet the next moment surprised him.

"Just now, when ’Meklord Emperor Wisel’ was tributed for Lava Golem and left my field, the rest of my Meklord parts were destroyed by their own effects.

And this card in my hand—when my monsters are destroyed by a card effect and sent to the graveyard, I can Special Summon this card!

Appear—

—Meklord Emperor Wisel, Combined Version!"

Kira: "...?"

He had to admit, this genuinely surprised him.

It was called Meklord Emperor Wisel, just like the core he’d already destroyed, but this time, the one he summoned from his hand wasn’t just a part. It was the complete, combined Meklord Emperor Wisel—fully assembled as a single monster card, occupying just one Monster Zone.

This was the "upgraded" TCG-legal version, never seen in the anime.

[Meklord Emperor Wisel, DEF 2500]

"Interesting," Kira chuckled.

See? What did he say earlier?

You can reference the anime, but never trust it entirely. The opponent might not be following the script.

"To think you even forced out my fully merged Wisel form." Primo said grimly. "Your skills are impressive. But the Meklord Emperor won’t lose to a shameless scoundrel like you."

"How rude. Am I not dueling with absolute sincerity?" Kira feigned innocence.

He set another card face-down. "I set one more card. My turn ends."

Primo: "My turn, draw!"

"Standby Phase! During the Standby Phase, Lava Golem’s effect activates." Kira grinned. "Lava Golem burns its controller for 1000 damage every turn.

Enjoy the hot magma bath."

Primo: "!"
