Chapter 839: What Kind of Hero is This?
"It's my turn, draw!" Bishop muttered.
"This is an Instant during the Standby Phase."
Aid snapped his fingers.
"The effect of Destiny Hero - Doctrine!
During your opponent's Standby Phase, reduce their LP by half!"
Doctrine's eyes turned crimson, and a surge of energy erupted once more. Bishop let out a deep roar, and his LP plummeted again.
【Bishop, LP 1500 → LP 750】
"You little bastard."
Bishop steadied himself, glaring with cold fury.
Who the hell taught you to play Heroes like this?
Is this the power of the Destiny Heroes, the signature of a rising professional?
"Time is passing, and so is your life," Aid chuckled, his eyes momentarily gleaming with a hint of malice, "as well as... your destiny."
The surrounding black-robed onlookers exchanged glances, each thinking similar thoughts.
Could it be that Bishop would be burned to death like this?
That would be a rather pitiful way to go.
"Cut the chatter, kid," Bishop snapped, "the Duel isn't over yet!
I'm flipping summon 'Death Camel' once more!"
【Death Camel, ATK 500】
"When Death Camel is flipped summoned, draw 1 card from your Deck!"
Bishop drew another card.
He then picked up the monster card from his Duel Disk.
"Offer Death Camel as a Tribute and perform a Tribute Summon! Summon the Holy Light Warrior who wields the power of shattered dimensions—
—Saint Guide Knight Isaac, come forth!"
A dazzling white light enveloped the noble white knight, who brandished a massive sword and descended upon the field. Countless white particles of light danced around him, resembling a swarm of celestial sprites.
【Saint Guide Knight·Isaac, ATK 2300】
"Battle!" Bishop commanded, "First, Saint Guide Knight·Isaac, attack Destiny Hero - Doctrine!"
The sacred knight raised his massive sword and charged forward, the blade enveloped in white light as if it were a part of the holy radiance. He swung the sword towards Doctrine.
"Using a monster with lower ATK to perform a suicidal attack," Aid frowned, but then smiled, "I accept this challenge.
'Destiny Hero - Doctrine', fight back!"
Doctrine roared, his eyes flashing with red light, seemingly offended by the knight's audacity to challenge him despite having much lower ATK. He punched towards his opponent.
Just before the two collided, Bishop swiftly drew a card from his hand.
"Quick-Play Spell, 'Strike from the Blind Spot'!
Choose 1 face-down Defense Position monster on your opponent's side of the field and 1 face-up Attack Position monster on your side of the field.
Until the end of this turn, the ATK of your monster increases by the DEF of the chosen opponent's monster!"
Aid: "My face-down Defense Position monsters are Tenaciousman and Executioner."
"Indeed, I choose 'Destiny Hero - Executioner'," Bishop said, "Executioner's DEF is 1700, so Saint Guide Knight gains 1700 ATK!"
【Saint Guide Knight·Isaac, ATK 2300 → ATK 4000】
With the boost, Saint Guide Knight surged ahead, slashing down with his sword and cleaving Doctrine in half with a single strike, accompanied by a thunderous explosion!
【Aid, LP 4000 → LP 3400】
"The effect of Saint Guide Knight, when this card destroys a monster in battle, that monster is removed from play. Thus, 'Destiny Hero - Doctrine' is removed from play once more!"
Bishop's eyes narrowed.
"Disappear to another dimension, blood-sucking darkness!"
He raised his Duel Disk, and a golden light emerged from the graveyard.
"Then, the effect of Zeta Star! When a monster is removed from play, Special Summon 1 'Extraterrestrial Life Token'!"
【Extraterrestrial Life Token, DEF 500】
"Burn, I'll make you burn," Bishop's eyes filled with bloodshot veins, "But it's not over yet, Executioner must die too!
Cageo Zeta Star, attack 'Destiny Hero - Executioner'!"
Zeta Star's claws struck, leaving three transparent scratches in the air. The piercing slashes tore through Executioner, who exploded with a loud boom.
Bishop exhaled a sigh of relief.
Although he couldn't eliminate the tenacious roach protected by the D Shield, he had at least gotten rid of the two annoying blood-sucking pests. At the very least, he had bought himself some breathing room.
"Aid Phoenix, I don't know why you chose to face me, but this will be the biggest mistake of your life.
Bishop spoke in a low voice.
"Why?"
Aid closed his eyes and smiled.
"Yes, if it were last year's me, I probably wouldn't have thought that I would be doing this in this place. But if I had to say, it's probably for repayment."
"What?" Bishop frowned.
Aid continued, as if talking to himself.
"Now that I think about it, my first half of life was stuck on that day in my childhood. The day my father died, my time stood still. After that, I lived only for revenge, nothing more."
"If I lost all this, I probably wouldn't even find the meaning of life, right?"
"Oh?"
Bishop's eyes lit up.
Genius Duelist Aid Phoenix, is this the darkness within him?
Haha, a Duelist with inner darkness is the favorite of the Holy Church.
"Is that so?" Bishop chuckled, "For revenge? There's nothing here that can't be understood. There's too much injustice and evil in this world. Within our Church, there are countless brothers and sisters who have experienced the same as you."
Aid looked at him for a moment and then laughed.
"If you're trying to coax me onto your pirate ship, sorry, you're too late."
"What?" Bishop frowned.
"Because I've already boarded that guy's pirate ship, and I probably won't be able to get off for the rest of my life."
No mistake, this is the 69th book! 6=9+book_bar first novel.
Aid looked at his Duel Disk and Deck and said faintly.
"If it weren't for 'that person', I probably would never have known that a part of my father still existed in this world, let alone find a new life goal and continue moving forward."
"From now on, my time will start flowing again, and my life will continue moving forward."
smiled and shook his head.
"Sorry, even if I say all this, a scum like you still wouldn't understand, right? Doesn't matter, anyway, it'll be over soon."
He smiled coldly.
"Don't worry, it'll be quick. It won't hurt for long.
My turn, draw!"
Aid declared.
"During this turn's Standby Phase, the effect of 'Fateful Hero·Tenaciousman' on the field activates!
This card, when on the field during your Standby Phase, can Special Summon a 'Fateful Hero' that was destroyed by battle last turn from the Graveyard."
Bishop: "!"
So this little guy is not only indestructible with absolute defense, but also has a resurrection armor?
D-Shielded Tenaciousman is invincible, and as long as he's on the field, he can provide resurrection armor every turn.
And what Aid wants to resurrect is, of course,
Come On! Fateful Hero·Executioner!"
[Fateful Hero·Executioner, Defense Power 1700]
Bishop's lips twitched.
Damn it, the entire Fate Hero family just can't stay in their graves, huh?
"Then, activate the Magic Card 'D-Doctor', excluding a 'Fateful Hero' from the Graveyard from play, and revive another 'Fateful Hero' from the Graveyard to the field."
Aid shouted.
"I exclude the 'Fateful Hero·Demon' from the Graveyard from play, and revive this card that was discarded last turn by Executioner's effect—
—Come, Fateful Hero·Defender!"
[Fateful Hero·Defender, Defense Power 300]
"Defender's effect, when Special Summoned from the Graveyard, draw two cards from your Deck."
Aid drew two cards, then looked up and spoke calmly.
"The final strike, it's over.
The effect of 'Fateful Hero·Executioner', discard the Fateful Hero from your hand to inflict 500 points of damage to your opponent."
Bishop's heart skipped a beat, but he quickly composed himself. "What are you saying? My Life Points are still at 750, more than enough."
But Fate Hero interrupted, "I discard these two cards from my hand.
'Fateful Hero·Defender', 'Fateful Hero·Sprinter', each inflicts 500 points of damage, which is..."
"1000 points of damage in total."
Bishop: "!"
Executioner, this thing... doesn't have a once-per-turn limit either? The power of two Fateful Heroes is absorbed, and Executioner begins to charge up.
Bishop's expression grew more and more uncontrollable, until it turned into a distorted face.
What the hell kind of hero are you?! Executioner's palm strikes down, and two orbs of light rush towards Bishop's face, exploding with a bang.
[Bishop, LP 750 → 0]
