"Come on, Hikari, make your choice! Let me see if you can persist in the face of terrifying trials!"
All the Spirits looked at him.
The two goddesses stood one behind the other, swallowing nervously, awaiting Tenjo Hikari's choice.
Ah Bu Si's forehead was drenched in cold sweat, anxious like an ant on a hot pan, wishing he were the one in the duel, that way, even if he lost, it would be alright.
"..."
Tenjo Hikari paused briefly, then smiled as he said, "Of course it will be... 1!
I choose to discard 6 cards!"
The daytime bottom laughed heartily, its large mouth wide open, and the two goddesses also felt an overwhelming sense of release.
"You chose to give up the future, huh!? Not bad, without the present, what future can there be—"
"No, what I chose was not giving up the future!" Tenjo Hikari instantly rebutted, "Great Divinity Official, just like your duel, you may have forgone using the Extra Deck, but ultimately, you utilized the power of the Extra Monsters, didn't you!
Similarly—
For me, whether it's in my Hand Cards, on the field, or in the Extra Deck, as long as it's my Polymerization, then there never has been any distinction between past, present, or future. They all will be part of my [Polymerization]!
I accept Effect 1."
He picked up the Extra Deck: "I'm sending Elder Entity N'tss, Predaplant Chimerafflesia, Garura, Wings of Resonant Life, Titaniklad the Ash Dragon from my Extra Deck, as well as Predaplant Byblisp and Electromagnetic Turtle from my Hand Cards to the Graveyard!"
4 Extra, 2 Hand Cards, Tenjo Hikari didn't even blink as he decisively "gave up" the Hand Cards.
But at the same time...
Seeing these cards going to the Graveyard, the older goddess couldn't help but cry out in surprise.
"Those cards are—"
"Garura, Wings of Resonant Life..."
Looking at this Monster, the young goddess felt somewhat "emotionally touched."
Just now, the Grand Priest had sent this Extra Monster to the Graveyard in order to summon it, it was this Garura!
Their Decks, although with different objectives, both used the same Extra Monster.
Just like the Grand Priest and sister, despite their different thoughts and goals...
These lingering Spirits are precisely that Wings of Shared Fate, the last survivors of this dimension, destined to collaborate and embrace each other.
"Your Deck..." Seeing Tenjo Hikari send Garura to the Graveyard, the daytime bottom couldn't help but mutter, "What are you talking about?"
"I don't want to say anything, I just want to prove my Polymerization!"
"..."
The daytime bottom didn't speak further.
"Well, if there are no objections, I will activate the card's effects.
I will draw one card with the Wings of Shared Fate effect; add one Predaplant Card from the Deck to Hand Card with Predaplant Byblisp's effect; with Elder Entity N'tss's effect, when this card is sent to the Graveyard, target a card on the field to activate. Destroy that card. I choose Dogmatikamatrix."
The Elder Entity raised the spear in its hand, nailing it to the eerie altar behind the daytime bottom, causing the scene to regain a grandiose appearance.
Subsequently, Tenjo Hikari added Predaplant Triantis from the Deck to the Hand Card and drew one more card.
"I didn't expect you to manage even that, worthy of the Spirit Realm's renowned Fusion Master... but what will you do next?" The daytime bottom grabbed an enlarged card in its right hand, "Ritual Spell Card Dogmatikamacabre, this card can banish a Fusion or Synchro Monster from the Graveyard, Ritual Summon one Dogmatika Ritual Monster from Hand Card · Graveyard. I banish Herald of the Arc Light from the Graveyard. Ritual Summon.
LV 4, White Relic of Dogmatika."
Dark red sparks descended from the sky, a delicate maiden gently holding a Magic Staff, slowly drifting down.
White Relic of Dogmatika, LV 4, Light Attribute, Spellcaster-Type, DEF 2500.
"When this card is Ritual Summoned, it targets 2 face-up Monsters on the field to activate. Among them, one Monster's ATK increases by the ATK value of the other Monster.
Although I cannot choose myself, Fleedliss can still be targeted.
Let Fleedliss enhance your Fusion Dragon's ATK!"
Dogmatika Fleurdelis, the Knighted, ATK: 2500→8700.
"ATK 8700!" Ah Bu Si felt like he was about to faint.
This, how can the ATK be this high!
"8700! So strong, worthy of Lord Fleedliss!"
"Stop flattering, if Demon Eye's attack goes through..."
The daytime bottom raised its paw, pointing at Tenjo Hikari.
"With Fleedliss on the field, when a Dogmatika Monster attacks, all Dogmatika Monsters on the field can gain 500 points of ATK.
Your Life Points are only a mere 3000, unable to escape Fleedliss's attack. Can you bear this dimensional crisis?"
"Lord Hikari—think of something!" Demon Eye drew her sword, as a responsible Knight, she would not hold back.
"Don't worry... Just as I said, my duel will not be this brief. All my actions will definitely not be about abandoning the future.
Electromagnetic Turtle's effect!
During the duel, the effect with this card name can only be used once!
During the opponent's Battle Phase, banish this card from the Graveyard to activate. End that Battle Phase!"
Having just drawn her sword, Demon Eye found her actions could not continue.
Force end the Battle Phase!
A brilliant response!
"Actually... turning all my interference into tactics?" The daytime bottom was shocked looking at this scene.
But then, it shook its head.
"Even if that's how it is, what then? Your Extra Deck now has just a few cards left, while I myself can safeguard all Dogmatika members against the effects of your Fusion Monsters..."
