Who Let Him Play Yu-Gi-Oh! novel Chapter 914

Chapter 914: Chapter 914 — Yubel Summons!

Banisher of Radiance.

If Dimensional Fissure was a Spell version of Macro Cosmos, then this monster was basically a walking, human-shaped Macro Cosmos.

Either way, the message was clear—

—Today, you’re not using your Graveyard.

"Because Banisher of Radiance is on the field, Regenerating Rose, destroyed by battle, isn’t sent to the Graveyard—it’s banished."

Kira said.

"The rose must be destroyed and sent to the Graveyard to leave Tokens. If it’s banished directly, that effect can’t activate."

As he spoke, he even gave an apologetic smile.

"Sorry, Yubel, but it looks like you’ll need another plan."

Yubel didn’t answer.

But her fist unconsciously tightened even more, and the murderous fire in her mismatched eyes looked ready to burst out.

"Battle continues—Zaborg the Thunder Monarch, destroy Regenerating Rose!"

Lightning coiled around Zaborg’s heavy fist. He struck, rainbow light blazing over the massive demon plant. All of its abilities were suppressed by the prismatic radiance; it could only helplessly be blasted char-black by towering thunder, then crumble and disintegrate as it left the field.

[Yubel, LP 3200 → 800]

"Next, Banisher of Radiance," Kira said with a wave. "Direct attack."

[Banisher of Radiance, ATK 800]

Since it had been Special Summoned temporarily by Celestial Transformation, the banisher’s body was half-energy, unable to exert full strength. Yet even halved, its ATK became exactly 800—almost as if mocking her—perfectly matching Yubel’s remaining Life Points.

This blow would be the finishing strike!

Boom!

A violent explosion. The flash of light nearly stabbed at the retina. White light and smoke swallowed Yubel and half the field, erasing even her outline.

Kira frowned slightly.

He’d thought Yubel, in a weakened state, couldn’t display her full power—but even so, this felt too easy.

As expected—

[Yubel, LP 4800]

As the smoke cleared, Yubel stood at the center of the blast, her gaze cold and sharp.

"Let me guess," Kira said. "Rainbow Life?"

Yubel snorted without answering. But the Trap revealed behind her in the thinning smoke explained everything.

Trap Card — Rainbow Life. Discard 1 card; your Life Points become the same as they were at the start of this turn, then you gain Life Points equal to the damage you have taken so far this turn up to the activation of this card. (anime effect)

So in the instant before Banisher attacked, her LP returned to the 3200 she had at the start of the turn, then absorbed Zaborg’s hit to rise to 5600. After taking Banisher’s 800, she became 4800.

In the anime, this was a card Yubel used while possessing Jesse.

"That’s more like it—if it ended that easily, I’d start suspecting you were a fake," Kira smiled.

Yubel’s face was dark, and she said nothing.

"Then I also activate Card of Heaven and Earth—in a turn I performed a Tribute Summon, I can draw two cards."

Kira drew two cards.

"Then I Set two cards. My turn ends," Kira said. "Of course, during the End Phase, the monster Special Summoned temporarily by Celestial Transformation must be destroyed.

Therefore, Banisher of Radiance is destroyed."

With a boom, the banisher angel exploded. The dazzling light within flared like a miniature sun, then quickly dissipated—ending a brief but sinful life.

The banisher’s disappearance was one of the few pieces of good news Yubel had—but the situation was still grim.
