Yugen looked at Goukou's determined eyes and couldn't help but smile slightly.
"The resolve of a master and servant, huh? Interesting. Let me put it to the test then."
He directly revealed a Monster Card from his hand.
"Activate the Monster Effect of 'Sky Messenger - Jelatis' in my hand.
By discarding this card from my hand to the graveyard, I can add the Field Spell 'Celestial Sanctuary' from my deck to my hand."
Again, the famous old monster "Jela's Warriors" in a new disguise. As soon as Yugen revealed it, the phantom of a Sky Warrior in green armor flashed through the air, wielding a long sword that slashed through and created ripples in the void.
That Monster was sent to the graveyard, and the phantom of a huge white sky scene appeared in the air. At the same time, a card ejected from his deck, which Yugen drew into his hand.
"Adding the Field Spell 'Celestial Sanctuary' from the deck to my hand."
Goukou said in a deep voice, "Celestial Sanctuary, an Angel Race deck?"
"Yes." Yugen chuckled, "The Angel of Light representing justice and hope is the most suitable deck for me, isn't it?"
Goukou: "..."
Goukou pondered that although he didn't know much about the man Godwin, as a commander of the Public Security Maintenance Bureau, and possibly secretly linked to the Evil organization Taiyi according to their investigation, such a person can shamelessly speak of justice and hope...
Thus, Goukou quickly decided that this individual must be the kind of person with a skin as thick as a wall, capable of uttering nonsense without blushing.
"Your reaction seems like you don't really believe me. What a pity. I'm telling the truth..."
Yugen shrugged.
"Then activate the Field Spell 'Celestial Sanctuary'!"
White Holy Light surged into the sky, mist swirling around, and sacred, dazzling sky buildings swirled among the clouds as if floating in the air.
"In the Celestial Sanctuary, combat damage inflicted by Angel Race will become 0 for my side,"
Yugen continued.
"Then activate the Magic Card 'Handwriting Erasure'. Both players discard all cards in their hands to the graveyard, then draw the same number of cards from their decks."
Goukou discarded his hand and furrowed his brows slightly as he watched Yugen draw his cards.
Activating Celestial Sanctuary before using Handwriting Erasure suggests that this field must be very critical.
"Next is Continuous Magic 'Spring of the Sky'."
Yugen activated another Magic, and a spring of water burst forth in the mist-shrouded Sanctuary.
"While Spring of the Sky is on the field, if a Light Attribute monster is destroyed by battle and sent to the graveyard, you can banish that monster from the game to recover Life Points equal to that monster's Attack Power,"
Yugen said lightly.
"Next, I normally summon 'Divine Call New Star'."
[Divine Call New Star, Attack Power 1400]
The formation was complete. If anyone recognized this setup, they might already be drawing a sharp breath.
Yugen chuckled, "Alright, let me test the extent of your so-called resolve. If it's a bit lacking..."
He paused, squinting his eyes, and said in a deep voice, "It might get instantly killed, you know."
Goukou frowned.
What is this guy up to?
"Battle," Yugen said, "Divine Call New Star, attack the 'Indomitable Desolate Warrior'."
Goukou: "Using a monster with lower attack power to attack?"
Goukou was puzzled. His Desolate Warrior gets stronger when facing stronger foes. The Indomitable Desolate Warrior cannot be destroyed by battle when attacked by a monster with higher Attack Power and can instead destroy the attacking monster after damage calculation.
But if the opponent's monster naturally has lower Attack Power, it cannot be activated.
Goukou frowned, "Desolate Warrior, counterattack!"
The Desolate Warrior slashed, and Divine Call New Star was instantly cleaved in two, exploding.
"Since the 'Celestial Sanctuary' is on the field, I won't take damage from battling Angel Race monsters," Yugen said, "Spring of the Sky's effect, banishing the destroyed Divine Call New Star from the game, I recover Life Points equal to the banished monster's Attack Power."
[Yugen, LP4000→ LP5400]
"Then there's the effect of 'Divine Call New Star'. When this card is destroyed by battle and sent to the graveyard, special summon a Light Attribute Angel Race monster with 1500 or less Attack Power from the deck.
Special summon 'Divine Call New Star' Number Two."
[Divine Call New Star, Attack Power 1400]
"Divine Call New Star continues to attack the 'Indomitable Desolate Warrior'!"
Goukou's expression slightly changed, "A strategy of continuous suicidal attacks to build up Life Points?"
As he spoke, Divine Call New Star Number Two had already self-destructed, turning into a beam of light flowing back into Yugen.
[Yugen, LP5400→ LP6800]
Next came Divine Call New Star Number Three.
Yugen: "Continue the attack!"
Divine Call New Star Number Three also launched a suicidal attack, exploding into a stream of light flowing into Yugen.
[Yugen, LP6800→ LP8200]
"Then activate Divine Call New Star's effect, special summon 'Radiant Angels' from the deck!"
[Radiant Angels, Attack Power 1400]
"Battle continues, Radiant Angels attack 'Indomitable Desolate Warrior'!"
Radiant Angels, being a Light Attribute Angel Race monster with 1500 or less Attack Power, also has the same ability as Divine Call New Star to special summon a 1500 or less Attack Power Angel Race from the deck upon battle destruction.
There are three Radiant Angels in the deck, continuing a three-hit combo!
The three Radiant Angels successively perished on the Desolate Warrior, and also turned into beams of white light absorbed into Yugen.
[Yugen, LP8200→ LP9600→ LP11000→ LP12400]
Goukou: "Life Points twelve thousand four hundred..."
Indeed, it's a remarkable number, but what's the point of stacking such a high amount of Life Points?
Have you not heard that the thicker the armor, the harder the hit?
But soon he understood that Yugen's goal wasn't just stacking them up.
"The effect of the last Radiant Angel destroyed by battle is also activated."
Yugen calmly said.
"Radiant Angel's effect, when destroyed by battle and sent to the graveyard, special summon a Light Attribute monster with 1500 or less Attack Power from the deck.
I special summon this card from my deck..."
A card popped out of Yugen's deck, which he held in his hand, displaying it.
"Special summon 'Power Executor Mars'!"
The altar of the Celestial Sanctuary burst with a dazzling sphere of light, and a column of light piercing the heavens descended from the dome. Countless rune chains appeared from the void, cracking with metallic clangs into dust of light.
The image of the angel emerged from the torrent, with wings like light particles spreading mightily, each wingtip shooting blazing white thunder. The battle axe in their hands flowed with liquid-like golden light, every inch of movement tearing web-like scars in the air.
[Power Executor Mars, Attack Power 0]
Goukou: "Attack Power 0?"
A Light Attribute Angel with zero attack, naturally it's summoned directly from the deck through Radiant Angels' effect.
"Power Executor Mars' Attack Power increases by the amount exceeding the opponent's Life Points when its own Life Points exceed the opponent's,"
Yugen smiled and snapped his fingers.
"Therefore, Power Executor's Attack Power becomes..."
[Power Executor Mars, Attack Power 0→Attack Power 8400]
Attack Power of eight thousand four hundred!
