Chapter 1004: Chapter 1004: Final Battle—Avatar
Blood-red wings fluttered as the Darklord, whose body seemed little more than a giant black head, flew onto the field, wings crossed before him like shields.
Darklord Superbia, Summon!
[Darklord Superbia, DEF 2400]
"Of course, monsters revived by Contact appear in Defense Position."
The Wicked God continued:
"Superbia’s effect! When Special Summoned from the graveyard, I can Special Summon another Fairy from the grave, except itself!"
He picked another card from the grave.
"Special Summon ’Darklord Ixchel’!"
Pure black wings appeared, and a voluptuous female Darklord with a seductive smile materialized.
[Darklord Ixchel, ATK 2500]
"Now Ixchel’s effect!"
The Wicked God kept going.
"Once per turn, Ixchel can pay 1000 LP to target a ’Darklord’ Spell/Trap in my graveyard and copy its effect!
I pay 1000 LP and activate Ixchel’s effect!"
[Wicked God, LP4000→LP3000]
He raised his Duel Disk; golden light shot from the grave. A Spell Card spun above his head, its power absorbed into Ixchel’s body.
"I copy ’Darklord Contact’!
Though Contact can only be used once per turn, using a Darklord’s ability to copy it allows a second activation!
Special Summon a Darklord from my graveyard in Defense Position!"
His graveyard was stocked from his earlier discards.
"This time, I revive—
—Darklord Edeh Arae, in Defense Position!"
Another pair of black wings appeared, unfolding into a monstrous blue-skinned Darklord with massive claws.
[Darklord Edeh Arae, DEF 2000]
Three Darklords at once!
At that moment, a ripple spread through the surrounding darkness. Two figures, one tall and one short, seemed to pass through a curtain into this area.
It was Jaden and Kaiba, who’d finished their duels and hurried to the core.
After defeating their own opponents, they’d met up en route and arrived just in time to witness Kira’s final battle with the Wicked God.
"Kira!"
Jaden caught sight of the field and was shocked by the enemy lineup.
So many powerful monsters at once, and such an overwhelming aura—
This god seemed even stronger than the one he’d faced before.
"So, you two came as well," the Wicked God glanced at them.
Kaiba crossed his arms and said coolly, "So the defeated dog ran here with its tail between its legs?"
At his words, a phantom of the Dreadroot appeared above the Wicked God’s head, roaring, "Don’t get too cocky, Seto Kaiba!"
Kaiba smirked, "Still got the energy to bark? Looks like you didn’t lose badly enough."
The Dreadroot was furious, but could do nothing but yell. Kaiba was right; after his last defeat, the Dreadroot was so weakened it couldn’t act alone, let alone reclaim its pride.
"Don’t rush, Seto Kaiba. And you—Jaden Yuki, right?"
The Wicked God said calmly:
"Once we’re done with this guy, you’re next."
Kaiba sneered, "Is that so? I’ll be waiting."
The Wicked God turned back to Kira, "Don’t worry, it’ll be soon.
The duel continues!"
He banished ’A/D Changer’ from the grave, turning it into a monster card in midair.
"By banishing ’A/D Changer’ from the grave, I can change the battle position of a monster on the field."
He pointed at one of his Darklords.
"Change ’Darklord Superbia’ from Defense to Attack Position."
[Darklord Superbia, DEF 2400→ATK 2900]
"Battle phase!"
The Wicked God’s sharp gaze locked onto Kira’s field.
"As I said—you’re first, Magician. My word is my bond.
Superbia, attack ’Silent Magician!’"
Kira said, "Silent Magician’s attack increases by 500 for each card in my hand. I have two cards, so she gains 1000 ATK."
[Silent Magician, ATK 2000]
"Doesn’t matter—Superbia’s ATK is still higher," the Wicked God declared. "Superbia, destroy Silent Magician!"
Blood-red wings beat, scattering a storm of feathers. Silent Magician raised a magic barrier, but it shattered under the onslaught.
[Kira, LP4000→LP3100]
"Now, Silent Magician’s effect activates. When destroyed by battle or card effect, she can evolve!
Special Summon from deck, ignoring conditions—
—Silent Magician LV8!"
The shattered magic circle was absorbed into her, and she grew even stronger. Complex magic circles exploded beneath her feet, white light swirling around her as a beam shot skyward.
[Silent Magician LV8, ATK 3500]
"Then, ’Darklord Ixchel’—attack ’Jinzo!’"
Ixchel cackled, spinning upward, her wings unleashing twin black tornadoes that combined into a thunderous cyclone, shredding Jinzo instantly.
Jinzo looked mournful.
Still couldn’t last a turn...
[Kira, LP3100→LP3000]
"If you think this is the end, you’re far too naive. You face the ultimate deck, powered by all three Wicked Gods!"
The Wicked God sneered.
"This turn, right now, let me show you what it means for a god to descend!"
