Chapter 763: Hero vs. Malevolent Heart
"Transform the Elemental Hero into a demon?" Decade was shocked.
"I also use the 'Elemental Hero Flame Doll' in my hand and the 'Elemental Hero Wingman' on the field to fuse!" Tyrant declared, "Transform into darkness, and burn everything with the hellish inferno—
—Malevolent Hero Inferno Wings!!"
Decade's eyes widened as he watched Wingman and Flame Doll merge into the pitch-black fusion vortex. Within it, black lightning burst forth, carving cracks into the ground.
The swirling darkness materialized into a physical form, first forming slender arms and a slender torso, followed by the outline of sharp claws. The demon-like broad bone wings spread open, and behind the evil hero, a ball of inferno erupted, enveloping the figure in flames. A cruel smile seemed to hang on its lips.
[Malevolent Hero Inferno Wings, ATK 2100]
Inferno Wings flapped its wings, hovering in mid-air, facing off against Decade's Flame Winged Hero. The auras of the hero and the malevolent heart seemed to clash invisibly in the air.
"A wicked version of Flame Winged Hero?" Decade asked solemnly.
"No, just a stronger and more perfect version." Tyrant replied coldly, "Activate the Equip Spell 'Malevolent Claw' from my hand and equip it to 'Malevolent Hero Inferno Wings'."
The metallic claws were equipped to the back of the Malevolent Hero's hand. The blackened hero admired the blade in his hand, which glinted with a cold, harsh light, and seemed to smile in appreciation as he slashed through the air, leaving several transparent scratches.
"The ATK of the equipped monster increases by 300."
[Malevolent Hero Inferno Wings, ATK 2100 → ATK 2400]
"Furthermore, when this equipped monster destroys a monster in battle, as a replacement effect, this card can be returned to the hand. And you can destroy another monster on your opponent's field, except the one being battled." Tyrant explained, "Battle."
Decade: "Such a powerful equipment?"
"Malevolent Hero Inferno Wings, destroy that weak version of yourself!" Tyrant commanded.
Without needing to be told, Inferno Wings was already eager to fight, and now it couldn't wait to fly out.
Flame Winged Hero also flapped its wings and took to the air. The two heroes, one righteous and the other evil, clashed repeatedly at high speed in the sky.
But in the end, Flame Winged Hero was slightly inferior. When he extended his dragon's head, Inferno Wings seized his arm and, with the malevolent claws, tore open Flame Winged Hero's abdomen.
Flame Winged Hero staggered back, and Inferno Wings cackled. It stomped on Flame Winged Hero's chest, causing him to plummet and crash into the ground, creating a huge crater.
[Decade, LP 4000 → LP 3700]
"Then, Inferno Wings' effect." Tyrant continued, "When 'Malevolent Hero Inferno Wings' destroys a monster in battle, inflict damage to your opponent equal to the higher ATK or DEF of the destroyed monster."
Inferno Wings let out a sharp laugh and raised its arms. Sparks flew from beneath Decade's feet, as if the infernal inferno was about to erupt from the depths of the earth.
"Counter Trap, 'Reflection Shield'!" Decade countered immediately, "Negate the effect that inflicts damage and its activation, and both players draw 1 card from their Decks!"
A mirror-like smooth shield appeared, blocking the hellish inferno, which then scattered in all directions.
Inferno Wings' effect was negated, but Tyrant remained calm.
"A pointless delay. I set two cards. End my turn." Tyrant declared.
Decade breathed a sigh of relief.
This was the blackened version of Flame Winged Hero.
The suffocating feeling that gripped him was like a force of oppression. Or perhaps...
He stared at Inferno Wings, seeing the cruel smile and mocking gaze as if the demon enjoyed tormenting its prey.
For some reason, he seemed to sense a hint of sorrow.
Decade shook his head, dismissing the unnecessary thoughts.
Regardless, the situation was indeed dire. The enhanced Inferno Wings possessed greater power than Flame Wingman. For instance, during the previous turn, when Inferno Wings attacked Tyrant, even if Decade had summoned Clayman for defense, the 2000 defense points of Clayman would still result in significant damage upon being destroyed by Inferno Wings, as Clayman's defense was higher.
Moreover, Inferno Wings currently had Malevolent Claw. Even if Decade summoned a stronger monster, a reckless attack would not defeat the opponent and might trigger the effect of Malevolent Claw, causing damage to his side instead.
No matter.
Strategizing was never his style; he preferred to follow his instincts.
"My turn, draw!" Decade declared, "I activate the Magic Card 'Magic Book in the Flask'. Both players draw three cards from their decks."
Both players drew three cards each. Glancing at the new Hero, Decade made up his mind.
"My Elemental Heroes may not be as powerful as the Dark Heroes transformed by demons, but they will never give up!" Decade raised his head and declared, "I activate the effect of the Field Magic 'Fusion Gate' once more!
By removing monsters from my hand as Fusion Materials, I perform a Fusion Summon!"

"This won't do," Tyrant said, "I activate a Set card, Trap Card 'Dust Cyclone'.
Use the sandstorm to destroy any Magic or Trap Card on the field."
Tyrant pointed at the Fusion Vortex above Decade.
"Destroy the Field Magic 'Fusion Gate'."
A fierce wind swept by, and even the black hole vortex dissipated in the wind. Decade raised his arm to block the storm, and the grid on the side of the Duel Disk popped out along with the destroyed Field Magic.
"Now you can't use this field for Fusion anymore," Tyrant said, "And as a follow-up effect of Dust Cyclone, you can Set a Magic or Trap Card from your hand to the field."
He drew another card and Set it in the back row.
Decade remained undeterred, "Then I activate the Magic Card 'Sage of Fusion' to add the Magic Card 'Fusion' from my deck to my hand.
Now, I activate the Magic Card 'Fusion'!"
He drew two monsters from his hand and threw them into the air again. In mid-air, the two cards transformed into the images of heroes. One was a hero clad in a blue tight-fitting battle suit, entwined with blue electric snakes, while the other was a hero with thick armor like a fortress.
"Fusion Summon! Elemental Hero Lightning Knight and Elemental Hero Clayman!"
The two heroes merged into the Fusion Vortex, as if swallowed by a black hole. At the center of the black hole, dark currents swirled, and as the two figures disappeared, a burst of colorful light erupted, like countless stars caught in an endless dance.
Suddenly, a dazzling golden electric light burst forth from the depths of the vortex, piercing through the chaotic mist like the first rays of dawn. The surging electricity, following a predetermined pattern, sculpted powerful steel arms, sturdy legs, and countless microcurrents and energy strands that wove into a heavy armor, forming a giant enveloped in electric light.
"Elemental Hero Thunder Giant, Summon!"
