Who Let Him Play Yu-Gi-Oh! novel Chapter 769

Chapter 769: Chapter 769: Shining Upon the Darkness

Supreme King: "!"

What is this kid saying?

He’s trying to make me—the ruler who dominates the Twelve Dimensions, the embodiment of darkness—see a future of light?

Did that last impact scramble his brains?

But Jaden’s voice cut through his thoughts.

"My turn. I draw!"

Jaden said, "I activate the Spell Card, Contact Gate! I banish two ’Neo-Spacian’ monsters of different names from my Graveyard, and Special Summon two ’Neo-Spacian’ monsters from my hand, Deck, or Graveyard."

Jaden slid out two cards from the Graveyard.

"I banish ’Neo-Spacian Dark Panther’ and ’Neo-Spacian Glow Moss’ from my Graveyard, and Special Summon ’Neo-Spacian Flare Scarab’ from my Deck!

And also the ’Neo-Spacian Grand Mole’ that was returned to the Deck by Fusion last turn!"

[Neo-Spacian Flare Scarab, ATK 500]

[Neo-Spacian Grand Mole, ATK 900]

The Supreme King narrowed his eyes.

The mole.

Again.

But it’s not a big problem.

He still had a massive 5400 Life Points. Even if Malicious Bane... gets bounced...

"I return Elemental HERO Neos, Neo-Spacian Flare Scarab, and Neo-Spacian Grand Mole to the Deck—Triple Contact Fusion!"

Supreme King: "Triple contact?"

"The power of fire and earth unite—blazing might, burn!

—Elemental HERO Magma Neos!!!"

One of late-anime Jaden’s signature finishers, the artifact of overwhelming lethality: the triple-fusion Magma Neos!

Magma Neos has a base ATK of 3000, and gains 400 ATK for each card on both players’ fields.

With "Neo Space" on the field, he gains 500 from the Field, and his effect reads the field card itself for +400. Counting himself as a card on the field, that’s a guaranteed +1300 baseline.

Add in the rest of the cards on both fields, and it’s easy to hit six or seven thousand ATK.

The Supreme King didn’t know Magma Neos’s exact effect, but triple fusion plus that thunderous entrance made it clear this was no ordinary monster.

So he didn’t hesitate: "Counter Trap, Grand Horn of Heaven!

When the opponent Special Summons a monster during the Main Phase, negate that Special Summon and destroy those monsters.

After that, your opponent can draw one card, however... their Main Phase ends immediately!"

Jaden: "!"

Not only did Magma Neos get blown away before it even landed, his Main Phase was forcibly ended. Jaden watched his Duel Disk force-skip straight into the Battle Phase while his field was completely empty. His options this turn had suddenly narrowed to almost nothing.

Meaning he either had to find a way to summon a monster during the Battle Phase, or end the Battle Phase and proceed to Main Phase 2 to operate—at the cost of forfeiting his right to attack this turn.

"...Then I’ll draw one card, and move to Main Phase 2," Jaden said.

"Now do you understand? Your struggle is futile," the Supreme King said. "You can’t even battle..."

"I’ll win," Jaden said.

The Supreme King stiffened.

"What?"

"I said, I’ll win," Jaden looked up and flashed a brilliant smile. "This turn."

Supreme King: "!"

This guy’s already been stripped of his Battle Phase and he’s still bluffing that he’ll win this turn?

What a joke.

"You don’t have to win a duel by attacking. That’s something I learned from an irreplaceable friend."

Jaden smiled even brighter—so bright even the ruler of twelve dimensions felt a twinge of foreboding.

"Let me show you.

I activate the Quick-Play Spell, Burial from a Different Dimension, returning up to three banished monsters to the Graveyard.

I return the Elemental HERO Avian and Elemental HERO Burstinatrix that were banished by Fusion Gate."

"Next I activate the Spell Card, Spider Web, to take a card that was sent to the opponent’s Graveyard one turn ago," Jaden said. "From your Graveyard, I’ll take the Quick-Play Spell, Trap Booster!"

"Then I activate Trap Booster! I discard a card to activate a Trap from my hand."

"I activate the Trap Card, Chain Material!

This turn, when I conduct a Fusion Summon, I can banish monsters from my hand, field, Graveyard, or Deck as Fusion Materials."

"Use any fusion materials you like," the Supreme King said coldly. "But the turn Chain Material is activated, you can’t attack, and the Fusion Monster is destroyed at the end of the turn.

And your Battle Phase is already gone—what good is Fusion now?"

"You’ll see soon enough," Jaden said. "I activate the Field Spell, Terraforming, to add a Field Spell from my Deck to my hand.

I add a second Fusion Gate."

"Then I activate Fusion Gate again! I can Fusion Summon by banishing monsters."

"And I activate the Continuous Spell, Dimensional Fissure! While this card is face-up, any monster that would be sent to the Graveyard is banished instead for both players."

The Supreme King kept frowning, still unable to read what this was building toward.

"With that, the setup is complete."

Jaden gently closed his eyes.

Before him, as if reflected on a screen, appeared the sunny lawn of Duel Academy some time ago—he and Kira swapping Decks, testing and studying under warm sunlight.

That was when Kira showed him an unimagined path.

"Amazing!"

Jaden had practically jumped with excitement.

"Elemental HERO can do that too?"
