Chapter 153: A Unique Club
Chapter 153: A Unique Club
As You Xuan finally arrived at the small club facing abandonment, his expression turned peculiar.
This club, to put it simply, was commonly known as the "Meika Research Society."
It was a club dedicated to researching those cute and lovely spirit-monster cards featuring scantily clad, attractive ladies.
However, You Xuan's first reaction upon learning about this was, "Why would such a great club be disbanded?"
Reasonably, he felt that this research direction had potential. As everyone knows, in the Yu-Gi-Oh! series, only machines, dragons, and women are eternal truths, and by randomly arranging and combining these three elements, you can create new series that are both popular and powerful.
So, after some thought, You Xuan felt that the main problem with this department was probably that it was born too early and was ahead of its time. The first thing that came to You Xuan's mind was that the extremely powerful monster-cards seemed to be extremely futuristic. Thinking about it this way, the 'Meika' element didn't seem to be as popular as dragons in the early days of Yu-Gi-Oh!.
But regardless, the disbandment had already been decided.
When You Xuan, as the enforcer of the student council, arrived at the activity room, the entire club members were on guard as if facing a formidable foe.
You Xuan had participated in quite a few public duels since enrolling, especially the previous one against the Maze Brothers, which had caused a stir in the academy due to the "legendary duelist" hype. Now, almost everyone knew who he was.
So when they saw that the student council's representative was actually him, the research club students felt a chill in their hearts.
Their hearts sank immediately.
The president of the research club, Shimizu Koichi, solemnly put on his Duel Disk, took a step forward, and left the activity room ready to fight.
"President!" A club member couldn't help but call out, "You don't have to face such an opponent!"
But President Shimizu paused, turned his head, and gave the club members a radiant smile.
"I will fight for what I love," he said proudly, facing the light. "Even if I perish today, I must step forward. Always remember, everyone, your burning love for the beautiful girl spirits!"
"President!" The club members were deeply moved.
"I will never forget you!"
"Go with all your heart!"
You Xuan: ". . ."
It's just a card game, why are they making such a big deal out of it?
Seeing their stance, an outsider might mistake this for a Dark Duel.
"Bring it on!"
President Shimizu stepped forward and unfolded his Duel Disk.
"Let the student council see the resolve we have to protect our beloved beautiful girl spirits!"
You Xuan also unfolded his Duel Disk, but his expression was complicated.
With these terrible lines, strangers might think he was some kind of villain trying to steal their wives.
"Duel!" x2
[You Xuan, LP: 4000]
[President Shimizu, LP: 4000]
"I'll take the first turn," President Shimizu said as he drew a card. "I'll set a monster and then set another card. End turn!"
"Then it's my turn. I draw a card," You Xuan said. "I activate the magic card 'Angel's Charity.' I draw three cards from my deck and then discard two cards from my hand."
Two cards from his hand slid into the Graveyard on the Duel Disk. He then played four cards from his hand all at once.
"I summon a monster in attack position and set three cards face-down. End turn."
President Shimizu frowned slightly. Instead of taking the offensive, his opponent was setting up defenses.
Was this the pitfall-centric tactic that he had heard about?
But it didn't matter.
So what if there were a few pitfalls? He would crush them with his burning passion for the club!
"My turn! Draw!" President Shimizu declared. "I activate the quick-play spell card 'Dust Tornado' to destroy the face-down card in the center of your back row!"
"Then I'll activate my face-down card in response," You Xuan said. "Quick-play spell, 'Scapegoat'!
Special Summon four 'Sheep Tokens' to my field!"
[Sheep Token, DEF: 0] x4
"A magic card to solidify your defenses," President Shimizu observed.
With four Sheep Tokens on the field, it wouldn't be easy to break through this defensive formation.
"Then I'll start by flipping my set monster, 'Demon Tamer'!" President Shimizu declared.
A lovely woman with cascading blue hair appeared on the field, wearing a navel-baring outfit that accentuated her slender waist and long legs. She held a pair of thigh-high boots and a whip that hinted at intriguing possibilities.
[Demon Tamer, ATK: 800]
"Activating the magic card 'Upgrade Transformation,' sending my monster on the field to the graveyard, and special summoning from my deck a monster with the same race and attribute but one level higher!"
President Shimizu slapped down a Warrior-type monster he had searched from his deck.
"Jella's Warrior!"
[Jella's Warrior, ATK: 1600]
You Xuan: "..."
Wait, what happened to your burning passion for the beautiful girl spirits?
How did it turn into sacrificing your beloved monster for a burly, dark-skinned man?
Reading his mind, President Shimizu puffed out his chest.
"For the sake of protecting the domain of the beautiful girls, I will not hesitate to borrow the power of others," the president declared, "Our bond with the sprite maidens will not be severed over such a trivial matter!"
You Xuan nodded in understanding.
Indeed, such a convenient bond explains why your club is being disbanded.
"I activate the field magic card 'Sky Sanctuary'!"
As the magic card was placed in the field zone, the environment underwent a transformation. A temple bathed in holy light emerged from the clouds, and the domain of sacred angels dominated the entire field.
"With this, the arena of our duel is now dominated by the sacred domain of angels!"
President Shimizu continued, drawing another card from his hand.
"Next, I'll offer up 'Jella's Warrior' on the field as a tribute! A sacred warrior ascends to the Sky Sanctuary, and in its place, a mighty archangel descends—
—Archangel Jera, descend!!!"
A dazzling holy light descended from the sanctuary, enveloping the green-armored warrior. Within the radiant light, the warrior evolved, gaining shimmering wings and wielding a shining blade as it descended!
[Archangel Jella, ATK: 2800]
"Archangel Jella cannot be Normal Summoned. However, by tributing 'Jella's Warrior' on the field while 'Sky Sanctuary' is active, you can Special Summon this card from your hand."
President Shimizu proclaimed.
"Furthermore, it possesses an even more powerful special ability! By discarding a Light Attribute monster from my hand to the graveyard, I can destroy all monsters my opponent controls!"
The members of the Meika Research Club began to cheer and shout encouragements.
"As expected of our president! Summoning the strongest ace monster right off the bat!"
"Go all out and show him the extent of our obsession with the sprite maidens!"
You Xuan: "..."
But even with your explanations, your ace monster is still a burly man...
"Activating 'Archangel Jella's' effect! I discard 'White Mage - Junge,' a Light Attribute monster from my hand to the graveyard, destroying all monsters you control!"
In the blink of an eye, another Meika card was mercilessly discarded as a cost, and this time it was a mage loli.
Archangel Jella spread its wings, swept its sword, and a domineering storm blasted towards You Xuan's field. However, President Shimizu wasn't finished yet.
"It's not over yet, this is the perfect moment."
President Shimizu pressed a button on his Duel Disk, revealing a facedown card in his backrow.
"Trap Card: 'Judgment of the Scales!' I can draw cards from my deck equal to the difference when my opponent controls more cards than the combined total of my hand and field cards!"
He pointed at You Xuan's field.
"I activate this in chain with 'Archangel Jella's' effect, so even though I've already discarded a card from my hand as cost, the destruction effect of the archangel hasn't resolved yet.
You currently have five monsters, two facedown cards, totaling seven cards on your field. Meanwhile, I only have three cards on my field: 'Archangel Jella,' 'Judgment of the Scales,' and 'Sky Sanctuary.'
Therefore, I draw the difference in cards from my deck!"
He swiftly drew four cards from his deck all at once.
"I draw four cards!"
