Chapter 1040: Why Doesn't Your Search Be Reasonable? |
La Mort looked at the few cards left in his hand before the game even started, and shrugged helplessly.
"It's really too much. So many cards were cut off right at the start…"
He paused and narrowed his eyes.
"Should I say, you are worthy of being the ‘king'?"
Judai: "?"
He felt strange from the beginning. What is this person talking about?
"Don't pay attention to him, Judai." Yubel snorted, "It's just meaningless trash talk."
"Oh…oh."
"In this state, if I can't draw any useful cards this time, I'm done."
"Draw!"
Glancing at the card he drew, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
"Wow, this is a really good card." He showed the card directly, "I summon ‘Spellbook Magician of Prophecy'."
[Spellbook Magician of Prophecy, ATK 500]
"Spellbook Magician of Prophecy's effect." La Mort smiled, "If this card is Normal Summoned or flipped face-up: Add 1 ‘Spellbook' Spell from my Deck to my hand.
The card I want to add to my hand… is this card."
He raised the corners of his mouth and seemed to pause and brew for a while before drawing the card.
"Quick-Play Spell ‘Spellbook of Judgment'!"
Yubel's face changed slightly, and her tone became serious: "Be careful, Judai! That card is extraordinary!"
"Huh?" Judai blinked.
"Quick-Play Spell ‘Spellbook of Judgment' is activated!!!"
La Mort raised the Spell Card above his head, and a thousand feet of sacred light poured down! It was as if a rainbow was hanging from the sky, and the sacred magic of light built an inviolable magic field.
"During the End Phase of the turn this card was activated, add ‘Spellbook' Spells from my Deck to my hand, except ‘Spellbook of Judgment', up to the number of Spell Cards activated after this card's resolution."
La Mort slowly drew a card.
"First, the Equip Spell ‘Wonder Wand'. Equip it to ‘Spellbook Magician of Prophecy' on the field, and increase the attack power by 500 points."
[Spellbook Magician of Prophecy, ATK 500 → ATK 1000]
"Next is the second effect of ‘Wonder Wand'." La Mort said, "Send this card and the equipped monster to the graveyard together, and draw two cards."
After the two cards were in hand, he glanced at them and flipped one of them to show it.
"Next is the second one! Spell Card ‘Spellbook of Secrets'. Add 1 ‘Spellbook' card from the deck to the hand.
I add ‘Spellbook of Fate' from the deck to my hand."
Another new Spell Card popped out and was taken out by him.
Yubel's eyelids twitched.
It's that card again!
"Judai, that card is the most powerful spear in the opponent's deck!" Yubel reminded, "It has the super ability to banish any card!"
"Huh?"
Of course, even if he reminded me at this time, it would be useless.
"Next is the third card!" said La Mort, "Activate the Equip Spell ‘Spellbook of Life' by banishing 1 Spellcaster-Type monster from my Graveyard and revealing 1 other ‘Spellbook' Spell Card in my hand."
He showed the card he had just retrieved.
"I show the Quick-Play Spell ‘Spellbook of Fate'." He said, "Then I can target 1 Spellcaster-Type monster in my Graveyard; Special Summon that target in face-up Attack Position and equip it with ‘Spellbook of Life'."
Two monster cards popped out in one breath from the Graveyard Zone of his Duel Disk.
"I banish the ‘Stoic of Prophecy' that you destroyed and special summon the ‘Spellbook Magician of Prophecy' in the graveyard!"
[Spellbook Magician of Prophecy, ATK 500]
"The equipped monster's Level is increased by the Level of the monster that was banished for this card's activation'."
[Spellbook Magician of Prophecy, LV 2 → LV 3]
"Then activate Spellbook Magician of Prophecy's effect again!" said La Mort, "I add the ‘Spellbook of the Master' to the hand."
"Another accurate search!?" Judai was a little stunned.
He remembered that for most decks, the effect of accurate search is often the key to the operation. If you have a powerful effect that is invalid in your hand, you can consider interrupting the opponent's search effect first to prevent the deck from interrupting the operation.
But this deck in front of me…why doesn't it seem to be reasonable?!
Is his search free?
But this was not even over yet, La Mort was still continuing: "The fourth one! Activate the Spell Card ‘Spellbook of the Master'! When there is a Spellcaster-Type monster on my field, reveal a ‘Spellbook' in my hand, and I can copy the effect of a ‘Spellbook' in my graveyard!
I show the ‘Spellbook of Fate' again, and gain the effect of the ‘Spellbook of Secrets' in the graveyard!
Add another ‘Spellbook' from the deck to my hand!"
"More?" Judai was stunned.
How many cards did he want to search?
"I'll add the ‘Spellbook of Knowledge' to my hand."
La Mort's tone was neither hurried nor slow, and he seemed calm and confident.
"The fifth card," he said, "Spell Card ‘Spellbook of Knowledge'! Send a ‘Spellbook' from my hand to the graveyard, and draw two cards."
"The sixth card, Quick-Play Spell ‘Spellbook of Fate'. Banish up to three ‘Spellbooks' in the graveyard, and gain different effects based on the number of banished cards.
I banished ‘Spellbook Organization', ‘Spellbook of Power', and ‘Spellbook of the Master' that you destroyed from the graveyard.
The effect gained is that I can remove any card on your field from the game."
He pointed to the Neos on Judai's field.
"Disappear, annoying Aqua Neos."
The magic circle spun, and the powerful golden magic hit Neos like a laser beam. The latter groaned "Uh ah" and disappeared out of thin air in the magic impact.
"Ah, Neos was really…"
Judai frowned and said, "But, at this moment, the ‘Instant Neo Space' that lost its equipped target is destroyed.
Another effect of ‘Instant Neo Space'! When the equipped monster leaves the field, I can Special Summon 1 ‘Elemental HERO Neos' from my hand, deck, or graveyard!"
Neos, who returned to the deck in the previous turn, popped out of the deck again.
"Come on! Neos!!!"
The beam landed, and Neos made a brilliant appearance again.
Neos: I knew I had to work overtime…
[Elemental HERO Neos, ATK 2500]
"Oh? There is such an effect." La Mort nodded, "Okay. Then I will set two cards on the field first, and my turn is over."
After a pause, he said in a deep voice: "But the power of the Spellbook will only begin to be truly demonstrated now!
At the End Phase, the effect of ‘Spellbook of Judgment' is activated! According to the number of Spell Cards activated in this turn, the corresponding number of ‘Spellbooks' are added to the hand from the deck!
The number of Spell Cards I activated this turn… is six! So I can add up to six Spellbooks to my hand!"
"Huh!?" Judai was surprised, "Can you pick six cards from the deck and add them to your hand?"
Is there such a search card!?
The amazing explosion of magic power was like a miracle from the sky! The Spellbooks flew out one after another along the surging magic light curtain, like spirits flying in the sky, and fell into La Mort's hands in a line.
"I put one each of ‘Spellbook of Mystery', ‘Spellbook of Fate', ‘Spellbook of the Master', ‘Spellbook of Eternity', and ‘Spellbook of Wisdom', five cards into my hand!"
Judai: "Ah, this…"
"And ‘Spellbook of Judgment' has a follow-up effect." La Mort said slowly, "After this effect is activated, Special Summon from my Deck 1 Spellcaster monster whose Level is less than or equal to the number of cards added to my hand by this effect."
"Huh!?" Judai was surprised.
Retrieving five cards in one go, and you can also fly a Spellcaster monster out of the deck at will?
"I special summon ‘Justice of Prophecy'."
[Justice of Prophecy, ATK 1600]
"Next is the effect of ‘Justice of Prophecy'." La Mort was still operating, "At the end of the turn in which I activated the ‘Spellbook' Spell Card, remove ‘Justice of Prophecy' from the game.
Then I can add both 1 Level 5 or higher LIGHT or DARK Spellcaster-Type monster and 1 ‘Spellbook' Spell Card from my Deck to my hand."
"Another precise search?" Judai was numb, "And there are monsters this time?"
"I add ‘High Priestess of Prophecy' and the Quick-Play Spell ‘Spellbook Organization' to my hand."
La Mort shrugged: "But unfortunately, each player can only maintain six cards in his hand during the end phase, and the extra card must be discarded. It's a pity.
But this way my turn is really over.
Okay, it's your turn, come on, you're welcome."
Judai: "…"
