Chương 644: Chapter 644: Eternal Dread
Darkness surged, swallowing the down-leveled Sphere bird. Its form twisted under the shroud, morphing into a grotesque, sinister entity.
Eyes opened one after another, covering the warped body. Some ultimate terror awakened within the dark, gazing coldly at everything.
[Thousand-Eyes Restrict, ATK 0] 1
"Thousand-Eyes Restrict's effect: once per turn, absorb an opponent's monster as an Equip Card."
Kira lazily raised a hand.
"Since you hate me absorbing Dasher so much, I'll leave that one to you. The one I'm absorbing is—"
He smiled.
"'Destiny HERO – Dogma,' absorbed as Thousand-Eyes Restrict's Equip."
Aster: "."
A surge of pitch-black power erupted from Thousand-Eyes, enveloping Dogma without debate. The mighty Destiny HERO roared, but was dragged helplessly into the void and absorbed—his eyes glazing over as he was consumed by Thousand-Eyes Restrict.
"Thousand-Eyes Restrict gains ATK equal to the absorbed monster's ATK."
[Thousand-Eyes Restrict, ATK 0 → ATK 3400]
Aster's mouth twitched.
Transforming Sphere had morphed into Thousand-Eyes—one bull-headed menace becoming an even creepier bull-headed menace.
In the past, this would have been unthinkable even in a dream.
And yet here it was—truly, right before his eyes.
For a moment, doubt gnawed at him.
Was it really fate?
Were his HEROes destined to be driven off no matter how he struggled?
"I equip the Spell 'Big Bang Shot' to a monster on the field," Kira continued. "I equip it to 'Thousand-Eyes Restrict.' 1
The equipped monster gains 400 ATK, and when attacking a Defense Position monster, it inflicts piercing damage if its ATK exceeds that monster's DEF."
[Thousand-Eyes Restrict, ATK 3400 → ATK 3800]
"Thousand-Eyes Restrict—attack 'Destiny HERO – Dasher.'"
[Destiny HERO – Dasher, DEF 1000]
A massive ATK/DEF gap—a crushing blow. With Big Bang Shot, Thousand-Eyes would inflict 2800 damage in one hit.
And Kira still had Synthesize Sphere ready to attack. If both swings connected, it would be lethal.
At that moment, Aster wavered.
He had known Sartorius since childhood and believed in his talk of fate. Sartorius's prophecies had never been wrong, forcing Aster to accept that each person truly had a destiny.
If all his victories to date were arranged by fate, was it possible that fate had arranged for him to lose today?
No—impossible.
Aster shook off the thought.
