Chapter 54 - Castle of the dead final!

Now I move to the battle phase. Spearman, attack him directly!" At my command, he lunged forward and stabbed him in the shoulder, and I could see him flinching in pain. The domain seemed to shrink a little bit.

 [Tyrant LP: 8,300 -> 6,300]

"Now, Red-Eyes, punish this Tyrant with an Underworld Fireball!" with my command, I could feel the joy coming from Red-Eyes as it gathered a large amount of teal fire in its mouth before launching a car-sized fireball at him and after it made contact, he was sent screaming in pain a few feet back. 

[Tyrant LP: 6,300 -> 3,900]

"Now I will set one card facedown and end my turn." I said as the card materialized in front of me. "You might have lowered my life points, but the game isn't over yet. "I draw!" he said in anger before I saw him gain a large, malicious smile. "I will start by special summoning my The Fiend Megacyber because you control two more monsters than me—"

[The Fiend Megacyber LV 6 Atk: 2,200 Def: 1,200]

Next, I will use my Archfiend's Oath and declare 'Fiend's Sanctuary.' Oops, how wrong I was; it looks like I have to send my Archfiend Emperor, the First Lord of Horror, to the graveyard because I declared the wrong name. Oh well," he said in a mocking tone. 

"Now I will activate my face-down card Call of the Archfiend and use its effect to special summon my Archfiend Emperor from the graveyard." 

[Call of the Archfiend trap continues to have an effect: You can target 1 Level 5 or higher Fiend monster in your GY; discard 1 Fiend monster, and if you do, Special Summon the targeted monster. You can only use this effect of "Call of the Archfiend" once per turn.]

[Archfiend Emperor, the First Lord of Horror, LV 8 Atk: 3,000 Def: 2,000]

"Next, I use my skill to target my Archfiend Emperor and gain 1,600 LP, then move on to my battle phase!" [Tyrant LP: 3,900 -> 5,500]

"Now Fiend megacyber attack his spearman!" he declared with a manic smile. "Not so fast. I activate my face-down card Graceful Dice. I roll a die, and my monster gains 100 Atk/Def times the result of the die roll. I said as a large blue die came flying out of the card and as it bounced across the field, finally landing on a five.

[Ghost Lancer, the Underworld Spearman: atk: 2,000 -> 2,500]

[Red-Eyes Zombie Dragon Atk: 2,400 -> 2,900]

 "Now the attack continues and your monster is destroyed." I said as spearman doged out of the way of the attack before stabbing the fiend megacyber threw the chest, destroying it instantly.

[Tyrant LP: 5,500 -> 5,300]

"Very well, but I still have my Archfiend Emperor, and I will have him strike down that wretched dragon!" He expressed the final part of his hatred, and with a swing of the emperor's sword, Red Eyes was slain. [Jason LP: 8,000 -> 7,900]

"Now I end my turn," the tyrant said with a satisfied smile on his face. "Fine, my turn; I draw!" I said. "I will start by activating pot of greed and drawing two new cards." I said before, smiling at what I drew, a monster that I made for the first time and one that had a type that was a few years ahead of when it should exist and a spell perfect for getting over his emperor. "Not so fast. I'm going to get rid of you, last monster, with my facedown card, Raigeki Break. I discard the last card in my hand and get rid of you, spearman!" he said as a blast of lightning flew out of the card, destroying the spearman.

That threw off part of my plan." my inheritor allowed me to help with one of my skills; it should be all you need to beat this fool," Belzebub said in my mind as I was thinking about what to do. After he said those words, knowledge of the skill was sent to my mind, and I could feel my soul absorb more of his power. "Alright, this is where this duel and your life end!" I declared with a large smile. "Now I activate the first mode of my skill, 'fertility god's Gluttony.' the first mode of this skill allows me to special summon up to 5 monsters from my graveyard at the cost of 1,000 LP but their effects are negated." I said as blood flowed from my open palm, each drop representing 1,000 life points.

 [Jason LP: 7,900 -> 5,900]

As the blood drops hit the field, creating three pentagrams that were then struck by lightning, three monsters took their spots: the first was the underworld spearman, the second was the Red-Eyes zombie dragon, and the last was the monster I discarded as tribute to the doomed Paladin of the Cursed Dragon. "Now I will normal summon Tatsunecro."

[Tatsunecro LV 3 Atk: 500 Def: 1,700 (Tuner)]

Now I will tune LV 3 Tatsunecro with LV 7 Res-Eyes, a zombie dragon. after saying this tatsunecro turned into three purple rings that flew in the air and perfectly aligned as Red-Eyes flew into them and I did something I always wanted to do from watching 5DS "Crimson-eyed dragon, fall and rise anew. Let death itself empower you! With teal flames and will restored —Evolve! Red-Eyes Zombie Dragon Lord! ".

After my chant, a burst of teal flames dispersed, revealing the evolved form of Red-Eyes, which had new black scales, gold accents, and an abundance of teal flames coming from its wings as it landed, burning the ground around it.

"Now I activate Zombie Power Struggle and increase Red-Eyes' attack by 1,000!"

[Red-Eyes Zombie Dragon Lord atk: 2,800 -> 3,800]

"Now I move to my battle phase now Red-Eyes attacks and destroy his archfiend emperor!" At my command, I could feel the satisfying joy as it launched a laser of teal flames from its maw and turned the archfiend to dust.

[Tyrant LP: 5,300 -> 4,500]

"Now spearmen attack him directly!" hearing my order, he lunged forward and impaled his spear through the tyrant's chest before kicking off of him and back to my side of the field. 

[Tyrant LP: 4,500 -> 2,500] 

"Now, Paladin, attack him directly!" without wasting a second, he commanded his dragon to unleash a torrent of Miasma on the tyrant. [Tyrant LP: 2,500 -> 600] 

"I activate my facedown trap, Fuhma Wave, targeting 1 face-up monster on the field; destroy 1 monster on the field with the same Attribute, but a different name as that monster. I target your spearman so I can destroy your Red-Eyes Zombie Dragon Lord. HA HA HA," he said before unleashing an unhinged laugh. With that, a wave of red energy struck the red-eyed figure, causing a large explosion before the smoke disappeared. 

"You know you just let me win, right?" I asked with a teasing smile, and with that, he suddenly stopped laughing and said, "What do you mean your strongest monster is gone, and all your other monsters have already attacked?!" I respond by continuing my turn. "I activate Red-Eyes Zombie Dragon Lord effect and banish spearman from my field in order to special summon it back from the graveyard and because it is considered a new monster, it can attack you agen now get your revenge and kill this tyrant once and for all!!!" I screamed the last part as Red-Eyes unleashed an attack so strong the other half of the roof was blown apart and the walls and floor below were melted into slag. [Tyrant LP: 600 -> -2,200]
