"...Continue resolving Nephilim's effect."
Tenjo Hikari seemed a little helpless.
Because Nephilim had been controlled onto the opponent's field, it was quite a setback for him.
Firstly, he couldn't use Nephilim's effect to directly destroy the Darkest Knight, and secondly, Tenjo Hikari couldn't easily use any other Fusion Card to assist in using this card's send-to-Graveyard effect for Fusion recovery either.
However, despite the Monster being taken, its effect was not negated, so Tenjo Hikari could still activate Nephilim's landing effect.
Tenjo Hikari opened his Deck, thinking carefully.
If Nephilim were still on his field, he would have directly sent "Shaddoll Schism" to the Graveyard, then next turn fuse with Shaddoll Schism to bring out Midrash, send New Space Emperor to the Graveyard, and still limit The Supreme King's Special Summons.
But now it's a bit more challenging.
After pondering for a while, he took out one card: "I send Shaddoll Squamata from the Deck to the Graveyard."
"Then, using Shaddoll Squamata's effect, send Shaddoll Hedgehog to the Graveyard. Next, chain with Shaddoll Hedgehog's effect to add 1 Shaddoll Monster from my Deck to my Hand Card. I add...Helshaddoll Hollow to my Hand Card."
"Crystal?" Although with a different appearance, The Supreme King recognized the card at a glance.
Tenjo Hikari nodded slightly, continuing his move.
In this way...
"Spell Card, Frightfur Patchwork, add Polymerization and Edge Imp Chain from the Deck to the Hand Card."
"..." The Supreme King watched Tenjo Hikari's move in silence.
"What are you doing, Tenjo Hikari?" Tierra, to the side, asked curiously.
Tenjo Hikari's move suddenly made her a bit confused.
With this Hand Card, there should still be hope for dealing with the field, right?
Why such frequent Hand Card changes?
Judai also contemplated this question.
But compared to them, The Supreme King saw more clearly: "Compressing the Deck, increasing probability."
"Ha, exactly." Tenjo Hikari responded, raising an eyebrow with a smile.
"Activate the effect of Thunder Dragonroar from my Hand Card, discard this card, and add one non-Thunder Dragonroar 'Thunder Dragon' from either the Graveyard or banished state to my Hand Card.
I add Dracozolt from the Graveyard to my Hand Card. Then—activate Dracozolt's effect.
Discard this card from my Hand Card to Special Summon 1 Thunder Dragon Monster, excluding Dracozolt, from my Graveyard or banished state.
I Special Summon Thunder Dragondark!"
A blue lightning bolt struck down from the sky, and a smaller black Thunder Dragon than the Thunder Dragon Colossus appeared on the field. After its appearance, it let out two joyful cries, then affectionately wound around Tenjo Hikari and nuzzled its head.
After more than a year, the Thunder Source Dragon had finally grown up and matured, not only stabilizing the 'Thunder Dragon Colossus' state but also transforming into the three different Thunder Dragon forms Tenjo Hikari had wanted.
Tenjo Hikari responded to it briefly, then continued his moves, saying: "During the turn you activate a Thunder-Type Monster effect from your Hand Card, you can tribute one Thunder-Type Effect Monster on your field, excluding a Fusion Monster, to directly call it—
Descend now!
Thunder Dragon Colossus!"
Boom!
Thunder roared down, and Thunder Dragondark's body swelled, transforming into the rain-summoning Thunder Dragon, having grown into the adult form of Thunder Dragon Colossus. It roared to show its strength, but, unexpectedly, demonic power engulfed it, reducing its 2600 Attack Power to zero, turning it into a petite dragon.
Thunder Dragon Colossus, LV 8, Dark Attribute, Thunder-Type, Attack Power 2600→0.
There really is no future possibility without dealing with Darkest Knight first.
Observing the field, Tenjo Hikari continued: "Thunder Dragondark's effect, once per turn, when this card leaves the field or is banished. Add 1 non-Thunder Dragondark 'Thunder Dragon' card from your Deck to your Hand Card. I add Thunder Dragon Fusion to my Hand Card."
Further compression.
Tierra noticed that Tenjo Hikari's Deck had already become much lighter.
"Spell Card, Polymerization!"
Tenjo Hikari played the previously searched Polymerization: "The Fusion Conditions are: one Monster Special Summoned from the Extra Deck and one Monster from the Hand Card!"
"I fuse the Thunder Dragon Colossus on the field and Helshaddoll Hollow in my Hand Card!"
Light began to flicker at Tenjo Hikari's side.
"Fusion Summon, Cycle of Light—
LV 8, Magnum the Reliever!"
The light shone, and a horned demon appeared shining on Tenjo Hikari's field.
Magnum the Reliever, LV 8, Light Attribute, Fiend-Type, Attack Power 2800→0.
"At this moment, activate the effect of Helshaddoll Hollow! When sent to the Graveyard by an effect, I can send a number of cards from the top of my Deck to the Graveyard equal to the number of original Attributes of Monsters on the field!"
Tenjo Hikari clenched his fist slowly, pointing to The Supreme King's field: "Now, on your field, there's the Fire Attribute Hellflare, Earth Attribute Darkest Knight, Dark Attribute New Space Emperor, and my two Light Attribute Monsters, so I can send 4 cards from the top of my Deck to the Graveyard!"
The Supreme King calmly folded his arms, as if indifferent to what Tenjo Hikari was about to do.
Rather, there wasn't much he could do before Tenjo Hikari attempted a "counterattack."
Tenjo Hikari quietly removed the top four cards from his Deck and then looked at those four cards.
