Kyle showed no shame and sneered, "Companion? She's not my companion, just an annoying fellow who's always bothering me. Your Excellency, I wonder if this information of mine can prove my resolve to you?"

Rand nodded slightly: "Barely acceptable. But you don't need to worry about Leiye. I will personally take care of this little bug."

……

As the storm subsided, Oros collapsed to the ground, clutching his chest and gasping for breath, his vision spinning.

[Oros, Health 4000 → 100]

"The scene just now...the scene just now..." Ignoring the pain in his body, he struggled to stand up, his fingers digging deep into the ground.

In the Dark Games, when evenly matched duelists clash intensely, it can trigger a resonance of spirit powers, allowing one to see fragments of the other's vivid memories. This is exactly what just happened; Oroth experienced this resonance during his duel with Kayle, and thus saw some of Kayle's fragmented memories.

However, he wished he hadn't seen it.

"Was it you, Kyle?" Oros asked in a hoarse voice. "Was it you who reported Laiye to that guy named Rand, which is why he was able to intercept us so precisely just as we were about to make a move?"

Kyle said nonchalantly, "Yeah, this information has brought me a lot of benefits."

“Kyle!” Oros’s eyes reddened. “Do you know that it was your words that killed Leiye?”

“I know.” Kyle met Oros’s intense gaze with indifference. “But I don’t care. That self-important woman, Laiye, why has she always been one step ahead of me since we were little? I’ve disliked her for a long time. I have no qualms about using her to gain the Alliance’s trust and appreciation.”

Oros clenched his fists, and after a long while, his expression turned cold: "You're insane, Kyle, you're really insane. I actually naively thought I could win you back..."

“I’ve been crazy for a long time, you just haven’t wanted to believe it.”

Kyle sneered, “End the battle. After setting 3 cards face down, I will enter the End Phase. First, I will deal with the side effects of ‘Shuffle Resurrection’ by banishing one of my cards, but I currently have no cards in my hand.”

Then, activate the effects of "Michael" and "Judgment Dragon," sending the top 3 and 4 cards of your own deck to the Graveyard respectively during your End Phase. After that, activate the effect of "Retribution Dragon," and if a "Lightsworn" monster activates its effect, send the top 4 cards of your own deck to the Graveyard.

Kyle sent more than ten cards to the graveyard in a row.

"If 'Demon Blade Bamboo Light' is sent to the Graveyard, I can search my Deck for 'Broken Bamboo Light'. If 'Rebirth Stone Golem' is sent to the Graveyard, I can add it to my hand."

After processing all the effects, Kyle officially ended his turn.

Oros took a deep breath, closed his eyes as if to cast aside all his previous soft-heartedness and pity, and when he opened his eyes again, they were burning with a fierce flame.

"Kyle, I can no longer forgive you. I will make you pay for killing Leiye!"

He shouted, "My turn! During my draw phase, I activate the Quick-Play Spell 'Cyber ​​Fusion Support,' paying half my Life Points. If I fuse a Machine-Type monster this turn, I can banish one monster from my hand, field, or Graveyard as Fusion Material, only once."

[Oros, Health 100 → 50]

Kyle was taken aback: "This card was activated during the draw phase..."

He suddenly realized.

"Dragon of Punishment" can pay 1000 Life Points to return monsters from both players' Graveyards and Banished Zones. This effect can be activated during the opponent's turn.

Previously, Oroth activated the Continuous Spell "Fusion Fusion". During this turn's Preparation Phase, he can fill the Graveyard with a large number of Machine-Type monsters as Fusion Materials. However, if Kael activates the effect of "Punishment Dragon" before entering the Main Phase after filling the Graveyard with "Fusion Fusion", he will clear all of Oroth's accumulated Graveyard resources in one go.

During the draw phase, "Cyber ​​Fusion Support" is activated. After "Future Fusion" is used to fill the graveyard during the preparation phase, Kael dares not easily activate "Punishment Dragon" because as long as Oros has a Quick-Play Fusion Spell in hand, he can chain the effect of "Punishment Dragon" to banish Machine-Type monsters from the graveyard for Fusion.

This is an open strategy, but Kayle has to compromise. In this situation, if she activates "Dragon of Punishment" in Chain 1, it's equivalent to activating "Royal Decree" prematurely without knowing if the opponent has any winds, which is a very stupid move.

Oros said, “During the Preparation Phase, the effect of ‘Future Fusion’ reveals an additional ‘Chimera Overload Dragon’ and sends its Fusion Material—that is, 30 Machine-Type monsters—from my Deck to the Graveyard!”

At that moment, if "Desperate Revolver Dragon" is sent to the Graveyard, search your Deck for 1 Level 7 or lower monster with a coin-flipping effect, and search for "Double-Barreled Revolver Dragon".

Oros finished demonstrating the search.

"The 'Dark Temptation' that was shuffled back by 'Punishment Dragon' before activation draws 2 cards and banishes the DARK Attribute 'Double-Barreled Pistol Dragon'."

"Then activate the Spell Card 'Displacement Fusion'!"

Since there are no monsters on the field in Oroth, "Displacement Fusion" could not be activated originally. However, due to the effect of "Cyber ​​Fusion Support," which allows the Fusion to banish monsters from the Graveyard, "Displacement Fusion" can now be used.

Kael coldly replied, "Then, Chain 2! Activate the quick effect of 'Dragon of Retribution,' pay 1000 Life Points, and return all non-'Lightsworn' monsters from our Graveyard and Banished Zone to the Deck!"

However, the next second, Oros played another card.

"Chain 3, Quick-Play Spell 'Cyber ​​Overload Fusion': Based on the effect of 'Cyber ​​Fusion Support,' banish 29 Machine-Type monsters from the Graveyard and Fusion Summon 'Chimera Overload Dragon'!"

More than twenty mechanical monsters became food for the fusion summon. A huge multi-headed mechanical dragon appeared behind Oros, its fortress-like body casting a shadow.

[Chimera Overload Dragon, Attack Power 24000 (Self-effect currently active)]

"The ATK of 'Chimera Overload Dragon' becomes 800 times the number of materials it contains, and because its Fusion Summon was successful, all cards on my field are sent to the Graveyard."

With only "Future Fusion" and the field spell "Duel Academy" on the field, it wouldn't hurt to send these two cards to the graveyard.

Chapter 536 The remaining duels are released in outline form.

The following is the remaining outline of this duel:

Because of the 30 cards excluded, "Soul Absorption" restored Kyle's health to 17100.

At the same time, the "Cyber ​​Load Fusion" chain of Kael activated "Summoning Limit: Rush Monster", and the Special Summoned "Chimera Overload Dragon" was forced to attack due to its effect.

Oros equips "Destroy Draw" to "Chimera Overload Dragon" and advances to Battle Rank.

During the battle phase, Kyle uses the cost "Broken Bamboo Light" to activate "Rainbow Life," turning damage into healing.

The "Chimera Overload Dragon" with 23200 ATK attacks five times, wiping out five of Kael's face-up monsters and increasing Kael's Stats to 129000.

Oros draws 5 cards due to the "Destroy Draw" effect, then uses "Advanced Draw" to release "Chimera Overload Dragon" and draws 2 more cards. Additionally, "Displacement Fusion" from the graveyard returns "Chimera Overload Dragon" and draws another 1 card.

Oros summons the "Electronic Dragon Core," searches for "Electronic Emergency Call," and obtains the "Electronic Dragon Type III" through the "Call for Help" effect.

Oros covers 1 card in his hand and activates "Fusion" to send "Cyber ​​Dragon Core" and "Tri-Type" to the Graveyard to release "Chimera Rage Dragon".

"Chimera Raging Dragon" removes the face-down cards in Kael's back row and the cards that Oroth himself set up.

Kyle C2 activates the face card "Dark Production Factory", sends "Regenerated Stone Golem" to the graveyard and draws 1.

The face-down card that was destroyed by the explosion in Oroth was "Z-ONE," which was activated by its effect, which recycled "Future Fusion" from the graveyard.

The "Chimera Rage Dragon" effect triggers, which adds "Super Electromagnetic Turtle" and "Electronic Dragon Core" to the graveyard.

The "Electronic Dragon Core" effect recycles "Electronic Dragon Type III" graveyard items.

The round ends after Orosco 3.

---

T6

Kael activates "Pot of Greed" to return 5 monsters to the graveyard and draw 2. Since "Super Electromagnetic Turtle" is not in battle, set 1 monster in the front row and set 1 card in the back row to end the turn.

During the end phase, Oroth activates the trap "Bottle of Greed" to collect 5 monsters from the graveyard and draw 1.

---

T7

Oroth, a semi-ranked player, activates the effect of "Future Fusion," sending 30 Machine-Type cards to the Graveyard. The "Cyber ​​Dragon Core" sent to the Graveyard then recycles "Cyber ​​Dragon Core" from the Graveyard.

Oros activated the magic "Forbidden Order" and declared "Chimera Overload Dragon".

Oros summons "Cyber ​​Dragon III" and activates its effect, increasing the attack power of "Cyber ​​Dragons" on the field to 5.

Kayle casts "Proliferating G" at the moment of the "Type III" summon.

Oros will transform into a 5-star "Type 3" and "Chimera Rage Dragon" and stack "Nova" on top of it, then stack "Infinity" on top of "Nova".

Oros activates "Evolutionary End Flame", searches for "Overload Fusion" and activates it, excluding 30 Machine-type units from the graveyard, and fuses "Chimera Rampaging Dragon" because "Forbidden Order" will not activate its forced effect.

Kyle regained 15000 health due to "Soul Absorption", bringing his total health to 144000.

Monsters Special Summoned by Overload Fusion searched by "Evolutionary Flame" can make an attack equal to the Fusion Material. "Chimera Overload Dragon" can hit 30 times with 24000 ATK.

Oro suspected that the monster set by Kael was "Lightsworn Hound: Lightning," so he chose to activate the face-down card "Magnetic" in his back row during the first phase of his main quest, so that his Machine-Type monsters would be unaffected by the opponent's monster effects.

Oroth activates his final face-down card, "Armed Regeneration," equipping "Destroy Draw" from the graveyard to "Chimera Raging Dragon."

Oros activates "Magic Shield," placing a counter that can replace destruction on "Destruction Draw."

Advanced Battle Rank: "Chimera Overload Dragon" attacks the monster.

Kael activates the "Lightsworn Hound" reversal effect, destroying Oros's "Future Fusion" and sending 3 cards to the graveyard, including "Shiranui Takebe", "Blue Tears Angel", and "Fairy Princess - Snow White".

Oros once again declared a direct attack, and at that moment Kyle activated the "Magic Cylinder" from the backcourt.

The Oroth C2 chain effect is "Infinite" and negates the "Magic Cylinder" effect.

Kael activates the "Snow White" effect in C3, costing all of his cards on the field, and then casts "Infinite Bubble" in C4, targeting "Infinite".

The C5 chain "Monster Recycling" returns "Infinite" to the Extra Deck. Finally, the effect of "Infinite" successfully negates "Magic Cylinder". "Snow White" cannot cover "Chimera Overload Dragon" due to the resistance granted by "Magnetic".

In a separate chain, Kyle excluded "Shiranui no Takebe" with "Snow White", thus drawing 1 and discarding 1.

The card Kael discarded was "Entertainment Mage - Trickster," which was sent to the Graveyard and Special Summoned, dealing 1000 damage to Kael.

The moment he was damaged, "Blue Tear Angel" in Kael's graveyard was activated, covering his hand's trap "King's Soul Harmony".

Oros continued his attack, breaking through "Snow White". When he attacked again, Kael activated "King's Soul Harmony" to negate the attack and banished "Rayden" and "Minerva" from the graveyard, while Synchro Summoning "Ancient Holy Winged Dragon".

Because the effect of "Ancient Holy Winged Dragon" increases the difference in life points, and Kayle's life points are 14, the attack power of "Ancient Holy Winged Dragon" is 14.

Because of the "Summoning Restriction - Raging Monster", "Chimera Overload Dragon" must attack.

Oros returns to the battle steps. First, discard 1 card from your hand at C1 and activate the Quick-Play Spell "Graveyard Seal" drawn by "Destroy Draw" to negate the effects activated in the graveyard this turn. Then, activate "Supercritical" discarded at cost at C2 to turn 5 Machine-Type cards back and draw 1.

Oros declared another attack, and at this moment activated the quick-attack spell "Duel Fusion," increasing the attack power of "Chimera Overload Dragon" to 16.

During the damage phase, Kyle uses "Ernest" to increase the attack power of "Ancient Holy Winged Dragon" to 31.

Oros also activated "Limit Removal" during the damage step, increasing the attack power of "Chimera Overload Dragon" to 32, and finally successfully destroyed "Ancient Holy Winged Dragon" in battle. Because of the "Graveyard Seal" effect, "Ancient Holy Winged Dragon" could not be revived from the graveyard. "Chimera Overload Dragon" used its remaining combo to deplete Kael's HP and win.

------

Alright, this book is officially on hiatus. I just can't bring myself to write about the final duel; even writing one more word makes me nauseous. That's why I've only provided an outline for the last three rounds.

I thought I had rekindled my passion, but I was wrong; I could never be passionate about this book again.

The change in mindset stemmed from a conversation with a fellow reader. One of them told me that day that there was a Yu-Gi-Oh! fanfic that was really good, with OCG-style dueling and just as good as mine.

I was very excited at first, thinking that after Mugen and The Strongest Duel King, I had found another fan fiction work that perfectly suited my taste in dueling, so I went to read that book.

However, what I saw was a dimensional reduction attack, the protagonist wielding two tornadoes but not following up with the Great Arrest chain, and the protagonist revealing what extra deck he had just to show off.
