Who Let Him Play Yu-Gi-Oh! novel Chapter 713

Chương 713: Chapter 713: One-Hit Kill!

"Reaper, hear my plea and grant me strength!"

"Absolute kill power—enough to fell even the King!"

As Lucien's fingers touched his deck, the deathly aura surged, clinging to the cards—a terrifying power gathered.

Dark red clouds blanketed the sky. Lightning split the heavens as he drew.

"Draw!"

In that soul-piercing draw, Grim Reaper above seemed to swing its scythe. A flash of lightning illuminated the card in Lucien's hand.

He burst into manic laughter.

"The card I drew is—'Slash Draw'!"

Even though they half expected it, everyone was still shocked.

Syrus: "He actually drew it."

Chazz, grim: "If he can ensure the draw, it really is a kill button. No wonder they call him Grim Reaper Duelist…"

"I did it, I did it!" Lucien shook with excitement. "I beat the Duel King—"

"Ahem—sorry to rain on your parade," Kira smiled. "But it looks like you're the one with a problem."

"Huh?"

Lucien blinked and looked up blankly, then saw a Trap on Kira's back row that had somehow already been activated.

He froze, then realized the only timing Kira had to activate a Trap was in chain to his 'Slash Draw.' But he'd been too busy praying to Grim Reaper and focusing on his draw to notice the activation.

"Even if you tried to counter Slash Draw, it wouldn't work," he frowned. "'Slash Draw's activation can't be negated by monster, Spell, or Trap effects, and it can't be destroyed." (Anime effect)

In the anime, it was essentially pseudo-Spell Speed 4—its activation itself couldn't be negated. Truly a literal kill strike.

But Kira smiled. "Is that so? Maybe take a closer look at what I activated."

Lucien squinted at it.

Trap Card—Nature's Reflection. Never heard of it. As a North Academy slacker, not recognizing a card was normal.

No matter. Any Trap is useless against his invincible Slash Draw.

Let's see the effect…

"During this turn, any effect activated by your opponent that would inflict damage becomes an effect that inflicts damage to their Life Points." 1

Lucien thought for two seconds.

Then his face contorted.

"Na-na-na-nani!?"

Reflected… back at me!?

"Yeah. A fantastic god draw," Kira said pleasantly. "Since I didn't know whether you'd actually hit the Slash Draw, I had to take the chance. But drawing it out of such a thick deck—impressive."

He even clapped.

But with Nature's Reflection up, that brilliant god draw was about to one-shot Lucien himself. The applause felt like mockery…

"Resolving Slash Draw: four cards on the field are destroyed between us," Kira said. "The 4000 damage I would take is reflected to you."

A single iai slash swept the field—Kira's set monster, Magical Merchant, Nature's Reflection, and Lucien's Invincible Demise Lord were all shattered, their energy surging back toward Lucien.

Lucien's face twitched.

You've got to be kidding me.
