The Missing Pendulum
Chapter 835 The Missing Pendulum (4K)
"Roar----"
In the distant future.
At the end of the world.
One of the star clusters suddenly began to move.
What had initially appeared to be merely a group of asteroids suddenly began to move violently, transforming from planets into golden bodies. These bodies were so enormous that they could not be observed by the eyes of any living being. They roared through the universe, their cries of pain echoing from places where sound should not have been heard.
He is the Dragon of Creation and End.

【G·O·D】
To His left, from a dimensional rift as large as a planet, three terrifying forces flew in.
Cold fire, tearing lightning, and pure demonic power!
They flew through the dimensional rift to His side, then transformed into enormous heads, tearing pieces of flesh from His body!
They devoured these pieces of flesh whole, without even thinking about digestion, simply tearing, devouring, tearing, devouring!
Only when they could no longer eat did the three terrifying heads, greedily and reluctantly staring at Him, return from the dimensional rift.
"Amitair!!!"
GOD roared in pain and hatred.
His once golden body was now pitted and scarred, and he no longer possessed his former majesty and imposing presence. He roared in pain and cursed the name of the Illusion Demon with hatred.
His body swept across planets and stars, shattering them into cosmic debris and rubble. But destroying just a few planets was hardly enough to quench His thirst at this moment!
At this moment, all He wanted was to destroy Amitel completely!
How dare a mere demon steal so much power from Him!
even--
And His vitality!!
"You bastard!!!"
He roared, and his voice shattered countless asteroids.
Although the three Egyptian God Demons usually keep a low profile, they are the highest and most elite among the "Elves," and the combined form of the three, "Amitair," is the true [strongest demon].
the most important is--
The three of them are indeed beings capable of devouring the lives of other spirits.
If these three were in the hands of someone other than Amagi Hikaru, such as the original Duel Academy Chairman or his subordinate, Akama Zero, then when the Three Phantom Demons descend, they would not hesitate to devour the life force of all the cards and spirits on the entire planet, turning them into nourishment.
And how enormous is the impact of such a combination of phantom demons attacking Him directly, or even nearly directly!?
Damn it.
Damn it!!!
He turned to look at the void in a fit of rage.
Looking at the "past"—but in reality, for the "world," that past within it is actually the "present."
That's terrible.
He calmed himself down as much as possible, and then took his breath as slowly as possible.
As a deity, He is similar to Darkness, but unlike Darkness, He does not need to descend to reach the past from the future.
As a deity, He has many "privileges".
However, even gods cannot arbitrarily appear in an era that does not belong to them, so they must find some vessel to appear in that era.
Therefore, He divided His power into three equal parts.
That is, the past, the present, and the future.
What resides within Akama Reiji is the power of the "present," the power that He directly controls.
Just now, when His power and His life tried to return to His body, they were directly intercepted by Amitel. Even the power that had already returned to His body was devoured by that demon according to the rules of the world.
Even more disgusting is—
These three devils were never "good people"!
They ate and took, even stealing some of His power!
Although these forces are only a tiny fraction compared to the present, not even a drop in the ocean, let alone a glimpse of the ocean, but...
Disgusting!
He flicked his tail again, destroying several planets, and then gathered the rubble back together to create a new planet.
Having lost the power of the present, He can no longer influence the era of Amagi Hikaru and his contemporaries.
Even more—
Because of the loss of this power, the Pendulum may be affected in the future.
For example, it gradually weakens.
This behavior can even extend to the rules of duels.
He closed his eyes and silently felt.
"hateful……"
He sensed it—
In the future, the "pendulum zone" will probably gradually disappear, and there will no longer be two extra squares in a duel. The pendulum zone will gradually be integrated into the magic trap zone. At that time, pendulum users will have to keep the two magic trap squares on the left and right, otherwise they will not be able to use the pendulum!
This means that a Pendulum deck can only cover a maximum of three cards!
He was so angry he wanted to grind his teeth.
Losing big!
Too bad!
As the god of pendulums, He may have some friction with humans due to His own preferences, but what He cares about most is always the pendulum itself.
Choices are secondary; He will never die anyway, and He will only touch upon what He considers past events out of interest.
But if the pendulum itself is affected, He cannot withstand it.
only……
He is now unable to take the initiative to act.
"The past is still there."
His voice, deep and resonant, echoed throughout the silent universe.
If that part of the power succeeds, then He can not only obtain the body of a perfect duelist, but also recover the lost power. At that time, the pendulum will still be perfect!
What can He do?
We can't just take back the power of the past, recuperate, and try to repair the lost power, then patch it up piece by piece, can we?
We've already suffered losses, and we've prepared for so long, how can we possibly stop now!
"Amagi Light..."
Only then did He remember the light of the heavenly city.
As a god, He didn't react much to losing to Hikaru Amagi and being stripped of his power.
After all, He is one of the gods of duelists, and He abides by all the rules of dueling itself.
What He was truly interested in was the light of the heavenly city itself.
Looking back now, it seems that Amagi Hikaru probably planned to use the Three Phantom Demons from the very beginning of the duel.
That's why he abandoned the branded cards he used before, which he found very convenient, and went back to using the Thunder Dragon, Destiny Hero, and Shaddoll from even earlier.
It's not just because the Three Phantoms are powerful enough as demons.
There's one more thing: the Three Phantom Demons were once controlled by the Red Horse Zero King.
Although they can freely devour the lives of humans and elves because of the Fusion Army, their dignity as demons has been utterly trampled upon.
Naturally, it's only natural that He, the "mastermind," would be hostile to the Three Illusionary Demons.
Thinking about it this way, it makes perfect sense that Amagi Hikaru would use the Three Phantom Demons.
Hikaru Amagi's duel is about "fusion," so he will definitely use the three Phantom Demons to fulfill their wishes.
"Eh, I didn't even think of that."
He felt a little sorry for him.
Looking back after the duel, it's clear that Amagi Hikaru's cards and tactics were already predetermined before the duel even began.
Although he had many other options, such as using the power of Tiera, the creator god, to disrupt His influence on the present, or using his strongest "Three Knights" to duel, he would not actually choose them.
He will definitely use three phantom demons, and he will only use three phantom demons.
This is his fusion.
If He had foreseen this, He would have had a chance to win, because the Three Phantoms are not invincible. Unfortunately...
Regret.
He felt a pang of regret for this.
Unfortunately, what followed was...
【envious】.
Yes.
envy!
What I envy isn't the Three Phantoms or Tiera, it's the Hyper Fusion!
As a Pendulum, he was somewhat envious of Fusion.
After all, Hikaru Amagi's performance as the proxy was simply too perfect.
Although he is not without his flaws, he has quite a few bad habits in his daily life. In particular, despite being very wealthy, his daily diet is terrible. He hardly ever thinks about health maintenance, and he either eats bread for several days in a row or makes do with instant noodles while busy with other things.
But none of these are problems for God.
Of course, it's not the same for hyper-fusion either!
Unlike Him who possesses a self, Hyperfusion simply sends power equally to duelists who have the potential to fuse.
But He had to admit that the agents of the hyperfusion performed far better than those He had chosen.
Why would He personally alter the history of their world and play an "RPG simulation" game?
On one hand, it's because He doesn't really like the history of the past timelines, and on the other hand... He needs a duelist strong enough so that people can unleash more of His power, and only in this way can the pendulum slowly spread.
This is His instinct, His will, and most importantly—He is well aware that as a god, He is indeed strong, but as a duelist, He is merely a "rich man" who controls all the pendulum cards.
"It's okay...it's okay..."
He comforted himself.
if--
If [Zack] can be born perfectly, then he will be no worse than Amagi Hikaru. At that time, He can also have a perfect proxy!
And now...
He could only watch silently.
As for the idea of "copying Amagi Hikaru," He never even considered it.
Because He knows very well.
The reason why Hikaru Amagi performed so perfectly was because of his persistence. If He wanted to replicate a perfect Hikaru Amagi, then He would inevitably replicate everything about Hikaru Amagi.
So, what will be the first thing that happens when Amagi Hikaru is born?
Fight with Him.
Therefore, it's better to look forward to past performance rather than anything else.
So He slowly turned His gaze back to Tsutono City, watching what was happening there.
Akama Reiji gradually woke up. He looked up and saw the sunlight and Serena, whose hands were covered in black mud, tearing apart the pollution next to him.
He slowly came to his senses, and then remembered everything that had happened—
"You're awake!?"
"Thank you." Akama Reiji covered her forehead and slowly got up.
Compared to his height, Serena appeared extremely petite, but at this moment, he felt a... inexplicable emotion.
Could this be the bond between siblings... or even just brother and sister?
"You're awake? Congratulations, you've turned into a girl." A voice came from beside Amagi Hikaru.
Akama Reiji was startled and jumped up. He instinctively wanted to check on him, but then he found that he hadn't actually changed at all.
"Haha—" Amagi Hikaru chuckled.
Akama Reiji couldn't help but instinctively push up his glasses.
So... Amagi Hikaru does joke around sometimes.
He noticed that Hikaru Amagi was sitting on a small chair, holding a deck of cards in one hand, checking it while jokingly teasing him.
Should we check the deck after a duel?
Even after winning, don't forget to check your deck...
It seems that he still has a lot to learn.
"Hey, Zero, don't just stand there, come over and check!"
Just as he was getting a little confused, Serena was already calling out to him from the other side.
"Eh..."
He has mild PTSD.
"Don't worry, GOD has left you." Hikaru Amagi said to him while flipping through the cards. "Moreover, if I'm not mistaken, some of GOD's power, as well as more Adam Factor, should remain in your body."
And it should blend perfectly... I did it myself.
! !
He instinctively grabbed a deck of cards from the ground and slowly got up.
Meanwhile, on Amagi Hikaru's side, they finally saw a brand new card that had suddenly appeared.
"Hey--"
Tiera suddenly spoke up, looking at the extra card that Amagi Hikaru had played with a very unfriendly expression: "Amagi Hikaru, if you dare use this card of mine, I'll make you regret it—"
"Uh, how could that be? Don't rush me." Amagi Hikaru's lips twitched as he responded in a low voice.
He never expected to create such a card through fusion!
DDDD Great Dimensional King Arc Crisis God? ??
Isn't this just Akama Zero-Oh?!
Level 12, scale 13, attack and defense both 4000, a dark attribute demon race fusion pendulum monster.
The effect is also good. In the case of a Special Summon, it can negate the effects of the opponent's face-up monsters and can attack all of the opponent's monsters.
As a monster with 4000 ATK, this effect is very suitable and can be used as a very high-quality finishing move.
GOD probably really did transform the entire Akama family into demons in some timeline.
But more importantly, it has certain conditions for being introduced—
Four monsters in total: one each of the Fusion, Synchro, Xyz, and Pendulum types.
as well as……
You can Special Summon a card from the Extra Deck by banishing any cards from your field or Graveyard.
At first glance, it seems like a lot.
but……
Even if you use only 3 Inferno monsters to fuse Inferno Tierra, both players can send 3 cards from their Extra Deck to the Graveyard.
If Amagi sends one Pendulum Fusion, one Xyz, and one Synchro, along with Tiera on the field, it can all be transformed into this thing in one card—
Tiera realized this instantly, and that's why she was immediately unhappy.
But actually, her thoughts were overthinking things.
Hikaru Amagi himself would never do such a thing.
Another reason why he wouldn't do such a thing is... he doesn't have a Xyz Monster from the Demon race!
He did briefly possess a "Demon-Type Xyz Monster," but he returned the card to A without hesitation.
"If I actually manage to get my hands on a Fiend-type Xyz Monster, I can use this card to test my skills against those copies of Zero the Red Horse."
He felt he had more options now than having Tierra do that.
of course……
And one more thing.
That was Akama Reiji.
There are still some details that need to be discussed and addressed.
