Chapter 1105 - 1078: The Power of Sin
"Absorb the attack power of Sin: Electronic Ultimate Dragon as life points!"
His life points instantly returned to 6,400, which seemed to give Diwein quite a lot of reassurance.
"Then at the moment Sin: Electronic Ultimate Dragon is destroyed in battle, my trap also activates."
Yugen flicked his fingers, activating the cover card in the rear.
"Trap Card ’Sin: Adjustment.’
When your face-up Sin Monster on the field is destroyed by battle or by the effect of the opponent’s card and sent to the graveyard, draw two cards."
Yugen drew two cards.
Then he cautioned Diwein, "However, ’Gigantification’ has side effects.
Now your life points have exceeded mine. When your life points are higher than the opponent, the attack power of the monster equipped with ’Gigantification’ is halved."
[Spiritual Realm Demon, Attack Power 5400→Attack Power 2700→Attack Power 1350]
Diwein snorted lightly.
"You don’t need to tell me such things, of course I know," Diwein replied, "I’ll set three cover cards and end the turn!"
"Then it’s my turn, draw."
Yugen drew a card, pausing slightly in his action, glancing at a certain place behind him.
"Well, the duel has been going on for a while, it should have caught someone’s attention by now..."
"What?"
Diwein asked in a deep voice.
"Godwin, what exactly are you trying to do?"
"Nothing," Yugen said calmly, "I don’t mind telling you. There’s just a Telekinesis Duelist in your organization that I’m looking for. I’m planning to invite her to participate in a ’Lucky Cup’ tournament that I’m hosting, hoping to fully stimulate her potential during the event."
Diwein was momentarily stunned, then recalled that the opponent had previously mentioned Qiu’s father being a senator, and was suddenly startled: "You have your sights set on Qiu? The Public Security Maintenance Bureau wants to gain the power of the Red Dragon, is that really true?"
"Personally, I very much hope to see her unleash the potential of a Dragon Sealer. What has been developed is only a tenth of her potential. But I think you, Diwein, should understand better than anyone that when people are driven to desperation, to the extreme of anger, their potential can be developed to the fullest extent.
That is why you continue to secretly conduct human experiments on those with telekinesis talent to force them to break through limits, even at the cost of killing them, isn’t it?"
Diwein’s expression was uncertain, and he said, "Are you saying, you also want to conduct similar experiments on Qiu? If it’s just that, then we don’t necessarily have to be adversaries. I, like you, want to develop her potential to the fullest extent..."
"Really? If you’re willing to cooperate that would be wonderful, as you are indeed a key figure in my plan." Yugen chuckled softly.
Diwein frowned, "What?"
"You appeared when Akiza most needed solitude, accepting her into the Arcadia Movement family. Although that’s because she is unaware of your true identity, I think she should have also already regarded you as a substitute for a parental figure.
You, Diwein, are now her emotional anchor in this hateful world, the only person she cares about.
Now imagine if I were to destroy this anchor..."
Diwein was shocked: "You... you’re insane, Godwin! If you do that, Akiza won’t let you go... no, the Arcadia Movement won’t let you go!"
"I’ve long been displeased with your so-called Arcadia Movement. When you tried to blackmail the Public Security Maintenance Bureau with my secret, you should have realized this day would come.
As for Akiza Izinski seeking revenge against me at all costs?"
He chuckled softly.
"... That’s precisely what I’m hoping for. If she can achieve further evolution and transformation, I’d have to thank you for that, Diwein."
"You..." Diwein gritted his teeth, "You’re talking like you’ve already won, but the duel isn’t over yet."
"Perhaps to you, it isn’t over. Or maybe it actually is, and you just haven’t realized it yet."
Yugen drew another card from his hand.
"Activate Magic Card ’Flowing Treasure Scroll.’
Draw two cards from the deck, but if you do not send a card to the graveyard at the end of the turn, you will take 3000 damage." (Original Card)
"Then the effect of ’Sin: Stardust Dragon’ in hand. By sending ’Stardust Dragon’ from the Extra Deck to the graveyard, Special Summon ’Sin: Stardust Dragon’!"
The shining starlight materialized into a descending starry path, Stardust’s wings cleaving through the light screen, the noble silver dragon covered in darkness polluted by sin, hovered above Yugen.
[Sin: Stardust Dragon, Attack Power 2500]
Stardust Dragon is a dragon with extraordinary significance in this era. However, at this moment, Diwein hasn’t met Yusei Fudo, nor does he know that this dragon is Yusei’s trump card, or what makes it special.
Of course, if he knew Stardust, he wouldn’t make the foolish move that’s about to happen.
"Hahaha!" Diwein laughed heartily, "Your deck has the ability to quickly summon upper-level monsters, did you think I wouldn’t be prepared for this once I noticed? Activate the cover card! Trap Card ’Torrential Burial’!
Destroy all monsters on the field during the Summon, Special Summon, or Flip Summon!"
The Equipment Magic Gigantification is a double-edged sword, capable of instantly enhancing a monster to reverse a situation, but once one’s life points surpass the opponent’s, it can also weaken the monster, becoming a weakness exposed on the field.
Diwein had certainly taken this into account long ago, the trap in the backfield was arranged as a defense to compensate for this weakness.
However...
Snap.
Yugen snapped his fingers crisply: "Now the monster effect of ’Sin: Stardust Dragon’ activates.
When an effect to ’destroy cards’ activates, release Sin: Stardust itself to negate the effect of destroying cards, and destroy!"
Diwein: "!"
Nani? This dragon has such an ability!?
The physical card version of Sin Monsters don’t carry the original monster effects, Sin Stardust certainly being no exception. But in the animation, all Sin Monsters carry their original abilities, just like Stardust Dragon’s monster effect.
"Sin: Sacrificial Sanctuary!"
The roar of tumultuous waves surged forth from the traps in Diwein’s backfield. The flood raged out from within the Katu, as if determined to engulf all monsters in a vortex ripping through space.
But in the next moment, Sin: Stardust suddenly flapped its wings, its scales exploding with starry brilliance. Its body transformed into countless sparkling stardust points, weaving a translucent Light Barrier within the field. The barrier constructed of light particles continuously offset the erosion of the torrents, Star Dust’s dragon song echoed throughout the area, until the last vestiges of Torrential Burial were completely nullified.
"Damn..."
The reversal had been thwarted, Diwein’s face grew increasingly grim.
"And this is only the beginning."
Yugen smiled as he shook the two cards in his hand again.
Simultaneously, the duel disc automatically searched, one after another, two additional cards jumped out from his deck, drawn into his hand.
"I’ll send ’True Red-Eyed Black Dragon’ and ’Ultimate Gemstone God - Rainbow Dragon’ to the graveyard from the deck, to Special Summon the two cards from my hand, descend!
Sin: True Red-Eyed Black Dragon!
Sin: Rainbow Dragon!"
