Chapter 1012: Divine Breath Flame
"Although I managed to summon the Godlike Deity, I ended up giving it to you, so my field is still empty. Well, what can I do? I'm just too kind and generous, I guess."
You Xuan shook his head helplessly.
The three Yeshen: "."
"Anyway, I'll be in danger if I get attacked next turn", You Xuan said. "So to be safe, I'll activate this card on Cover.
Magic Card: Temporary Truce. Both players draw one card from their deck, but until the end of the opponent's next turn, all damage we take will be reduced to zero."
As both players drew from their decks, a truce agreement appeared in mid-air, enveloping the field in a gentle golden glow.
The Divine Incarnation's face darkened.
Even the attack next turn was sealed.
"My turn is over", You Xuan said.
Yeshen said grimly, "My turn, draw."
He scanned his hand.
At this moment, his hand was not very strong, leaving him with limited options. And since this turn was still under the effect of Temporary Truce, he couldn't deal any battle damage.
It seemed that focusing on defense was his only option for now.
However...
Yeshen looked up at the smooth, egg-like sphere floating on his field, then at You Xuan, who appeared calm and in control. He gritted his teeth in frustration.
No, he couldn't stand it. He was still fuming.
With a fierce glare, Yeshen shouted, "Attack! Winged Dragon of Ra, direct attack! Attack now!!!"
Of course, this attack was meaningless. The egg's attack power was zero, and even if it weren't, the Temporary Truce would prevent any battle damage.
So, this attack was probably just for venting.
With such an egg on his field, he at least wanted to make the damned Winged Dragon of Ra take some action.
But it was all for nothing.
The spherical Winged Dragon of Ra seemed to be deaf, continuing to float calmly in the air without any reaction.
"Why!?" Yeshen roared, "Does the Godlike Deity openly defy the rules!?"
Of course, he knew that was impossible. Any entity on the dueling field had to follow the rules.
"Lord Yeshen, please calm down", You Xuan said with a smile. "But the spherical form of the Winged Dragon of Ra doesn't have the ability to attack. Asking it to attack is truly asking too much.
In its spherical form, the Winged Dragon of Ra cannot declare an attack, nor can it be targeted by the opponent's attacks or card effects."
In other words, while the egg was on Yeshen's field, You Xuan couldn't attack it either.
Yeshen grunted in frustration.
"I set a card, and my turn is over."
But just as he declared the end of his turn...
The holy golden sphere in the air slowly moved, arrogantly flying back to You Xuan's field and floating there calmly.
Yeshen: "!"
What was happening now?
"Oh, the spherical form of the Winged Dragon of Ra returns to its original owner's field at the end of the turn after it is summoned", You Xuan explained.
Yeshen: "."
"Then my turn, draw", You Xuan raised his hand. "This turn, I'll unleash the true form of the god!
The ever-changing flames of heaven and earth, shining eternally upon the land—
—Winged Dragon of Ra, spherical form, transform!"
In fact, You Xuan was just trying.
The effect of the spherical form of the Winged Dragon of Ra allows it to be sacrificed to Special Summon the Winged Dragon of Ra directly from the deck. However, You Xuan's deck didn't originally contain the card for the Winged Dragon of Ra.
When he faced the Emperor, You Xuan had tried to activate this effect once, but the Winged Dragon of Ra ignored him, and nothing happened.
But Youxuan wasn’t too concerned. After all, there was no harm in trying. If it worked, great; if not, he’d come up with something else.
However, this time, he felt the odds were in his favor. After all, his opponent was the three Yeshen, and the Winged Dragon of Ra had been summoned using the Yeshen brothers as sacrifices. There was no reason for it not to appear.
Sure enough, the golden sphere in the sky began to stir. Cracks formed on its previously smooth surface, each crack radiating a divine light as bright as the sun.
At the same time, a miniature Millennium Puzzle appeared in front of Youxuan’s chest. A golden light emerged from the artifact, hovering above him, forming the silhouette of a majestic king with closed eyes and arms crossed over his chest, as if quietly chanting a spell.
This was the summoning program encoded within the sealing artifact, reciting the ancient priestly script required to call forth the Winged Dragon of Ra.
Even Seto Kaiba, watching from the sidelines, was impressed.
This guy was really going to summon a god again.
"Supreme Godlike Deity, Winged Dragon of Ra, descend!"
The golden sphere burst open, its spherical gold shell transforming into shimmering wings. The Winged Dragon of Ra radiated a light like the sun, as if it had been illuminating the earth since ancient times.
Winged Dragon of Ra, Attack Power?
"The spherical form’s effect, when the Winged Dragon of Ra is summoned by sacrificing the spherical form", Youxuan explained, "increases the Attack Power to 4000 points!"
Winged Dragon of Ra, Attack 4000
The Yeshen brothers began to stir.
Eraser: "It’s really here! Big brother, it’s really that Godlike Deity! It hasn’t completely vanished yet."
Divine Incarnation coldly replied, "I see it. I’m not blind."
Root of Fear added gravely, "Not just Obelisk, even Ra is still around."
The situation was entirely different from what they had initially expected.
Now, only Osiris among the three Godlike Deities hadn’t reappeared in the present world.
Of course, it was also possible that the other two brothers didn’t bring him along because they considered him a traitor.
"Winged Dragon of Ra, direct attack", Youxuan commanded. "Divine Breath Flame Cannon!"
Streams of golden light gathered behind the Winged Dragon of Ra, forming a burning orb like a miniature sun. The energy from this small sun filled the dragon’s open mouth, concentrating the light and heat to their utmost, and then a fiery cannon blast that pierced the void shot out!
This left the Yeshen brothers’ field empty, facing the full force of the Godlike Deity’s attack.
Eraser cried out anxiously, "Big brother!"
"Shut up!" Divine Incarnation snapped. "Activate the trap card!
Trap Card ‘Holy Spear’!
When the opponent’s monster declares an attack, restore Life Points equal to that monster’s Attack Power!"
Yeshen, LP 2000 → LP 6000
The next moment, the Winged Dragon of Ra’s divine flame struck, almost dispersing their Duel avatars. The Yeshen avatars screamed as they were caught in the golden vortex, nearly torn to pieces.
Yeshen, LP 6000 → LP 2000
The impact of the Godlike Deity’s cannon was no joke, dealing 4000 points of damage. Even the Yeshen brothers were thrown off balance, their Duel avatars nearly obliterated.
But at least they had managed to withstand the attack in the Duel, with no change in Life Points.
"Traps don’t affect gods, so you countered the attack by restoring Life Points. Not bad."
Youxuan smiled.
"Then I’ll set a card face down. My turn ends."
