"Then I activate the effect of [ The Time Has Come to Be Born, To Correct All Phenomena ]! I'll destroy [ Seventh Singularity: Absolute Demonic Front ] from my Deck, and then send all your corresponding Servants to the Graveyard!" Another Singularity was destroyed, meaning Goetia had now completed the destruction of three.
Over ten more cards were sent to the Graveyard. Gudako's once-thick Deck was now dwindled to almost nothing.
"Your card effects only apply during your turn, right?" Gudako glanced at the cards sent to the Graveyard. It wasn't yet the start of the opponent's next turn, meaning she still had room to maneuver. "I activate [ Medea Lily ]'s effect, banishing herself from the Graveyard to Special Summon [ Gorgon ] from the Graveyard..."
"Did you think I wouldn't anticipate this?" Goetia snorted. His primary strategies focused on sending Singularity-related characters to the Graveyard, so he naturally had a countermeasure. "Continuous Spell Card [ The Future Has Been Burned ]. While this card is on the field, you must pay 1000 Life Points to activate an effect from the Graveyard. And since your Life Points, which are now like a candle flickering in the wind, are exactly 1000... Come on, activate your effect!"
Jiang You really wanted to complain that he could still hear the phrase "candle flickering in the wind" even though they weren't from the same world. But then he realized this battle was a custom Duel. In fact, Gudako had the winning cards, but she just didn't draw them directly. This must be fate.
"..." If she activated the effect, she would lose the match immediately because her Life Points would drop to zero. Of course, Gudako couldn't activate it.
"Hmph. Is [ Tiamat ] in your Deck too? How ridiculous. A Beast actually wanting to help humans... Well, I've already dealt with her. Otherwise, she would have been a real nuisance!" Goetia glanced at Gudako's Graveyard and noticed a certain colleague was also there. This meant Gudako had received the favor of both a Grand and a Beast. He wondered what kind of bewitching potion she had fed them. He thought to himself that even if he destroyed his own Spirit Origin, he would never help Chaldea.
"Continue! My turn, draw! First, the effect of [ The Time Has Come to Be Born, To Correct All Phenomena ] activates again, sending [ Sixth Singularity ] to the Graveyard!" This was to restrict the subsequent plays of the Knights of the Round Table. Now, only three Singularities remained. Gudako's Life Points had entered the final countdown.
"Next, I don't even need to repeat them. Summon the three Demon God Pillars [ Naberius ], [ Flauros ], and [ Forneus ] again!"
[ Naberius ] Attack Power: 5000
[ Flauros ] Attack Power: 5000
[ Forneus ] Attack Power: 3000
Adding Goetia's own 10,200, the total Attack Power on Goetia's field has now reached a terrifying value.
"Since battle damage is negated, [ Flauros ] will completely clear her backrow for me!" Goetia wiped out Gudako's backrow again, otherwise battle damage would be neutralized again.
"It's useless! Camelot will not be destroyed by effects!" This was the flawless Lord Camelot; how could it be so easily destroyed?
"Then these Holy Swords must be destroyed!" Immediately, the Holy Swords equipped on White Lancer Artoria were all sent to the Graveyard.
[ Flauros ] Attack Power: 5000 → 1000
[ White Lancer Artoria ] Attack Power: 7600 → 3000
"Very well, even if battle damage is negated, what does it matter? Enter Battle Phase! [ Goetia ] attacks [ Artoria Lancer ], [ Forneus ] attacks Lancelot, and [ Naberius ] attacks Mordred!" Each of the Servants had an Attack Power higher than those on Gudako's field. Even if battle damage was negated, he could still use [ Flauros ], with its Attack Power of only 1000, to attack Gudako directly and claim victory.
White Lancer Artoria was destroyed, Lancelot was destroyed, and the only remaining cards on Gudako's field were Mordred and the Field Spell Card [ Camelot ].
Naberius's attack still pierced through Mordred. At that moment, Mordred smiled. "I never thought my deeds would be useful here. Master of Chaldea, this is your last chance. You'd better seize it well!"
"I understand..." Gudako raised her hand. "Mordred's effect: when this card leaves the field, destroy the Field Spell Card [ Camelot ], then draw one card!" The end of Camelot heralded the End of the Age of Gods, but history would still continue. Mordred's effect was actually a bit of a loss, but it still gave Gudako a chance for a final gamble.
"A single card? So what?" Goetia sneered.
"Th-This is...?"
Jiang You knew which card Gudako had drawn. Since this was the conclusion of Part 1, this scene had to be fully savored.
"I activate the Spell Card [ Heavenly Meteor Shower ]! This card can be activated directly when drawn if there are no cards on the field and no other cards in hand! Special Summon servants from the Deck, Graveyard, and Banished Zone as much as possible!" This was the Bond that Gudako had built along her journey, with all the servants responding and condensing into cards. In the sky, countless streaks of light began to appear.
"Don't dream of it! Using my own effect, when the opponent activates a Spell or Trap Card, I tribute one servant on my field to negate it! I tribute [ Fujimaru Ritsuka ] to negate your [ Heavenly Meteor Shower ]!" As Gudako was tributed, a shockwave of magical power erupted from Goetia's chest, its immense power seemingly intent on shattering the card.
Yet the lights in the sky did not cease. At their head, a Heroic Spirit raised the Holy Banner. "Gather in this domain, you Heroic Spirits who can single-handedly match ten million men!"
"It's useless! The activation of [ Heavenly Meteor Shower ] cannot be negated! Come! [ Tiamat ], [ Romulus ], [ Old Man of the Mountain ], [ Jeanne d'Arc ], [ Quetzalcoatl ]!"
Jiang You watched as the heavy-hitting servants appeared, but he couldn't help feeling that the white-robed village girl stood out a bit too much. If Jeanne weren't the banner-bearer, she probably wouldn't have even qualified to appear. Mixed in with this crowd, she looked like she was just filling a quota.
[ Tiamat ] Attack Power: 5000
[ Romulus ] Attack Power: 4000
[ Old Man of the Mountain ] Attack Power: 4000
[ Quetzalcoatl ] Attack Power: 3500
[ Jeanne d'Arc ] Attack Power: 2500
More shooting stars streaked across the sky, seemingly unable to find a suitable place to land, circling endlessly in the air.
One could only say that the Duel Disk had only five slots, so the other servants had no chance to appear.
"Servants summoned by this effect cannot be destroyed by card effects, nor can they be targeted by card effects!" It even granted the servants immunity, making the difficulty of Goetia's breakthrough even greater.
