The features of the Vampire Deck have already been largely displayed at this point.
This deck is actually very similar to the characteristics of vampires themselves — extremely bloodthirsty. The activation of card effects and the unfolding of formations are highly dependent on Life Points, requiring a substantial amount to sacrifice to ensure expansion, fully embodying the vampire's extreme thirst for blood.
Simultaneously, this deck series also captures the aggressive traits of vampires.
Bloodsucking, allowing battle damage to be transformed into the player's Life Points, ensuring a continuous supply of enough blood in subsequent battles to guarantee expansion and offense.
And then there's assimilation. Just as traditionally vampires have the ability to assimilate the blood-sucked object into a vampire, the Yugi series vampires have it too —
— all monsters destroyed in battle by vampires at the end of the turn get lined up to the opponent's field, equivalent to being assimilated into vampires.
Now, the offensive of Miss Thousand Gold is just about to start.
"Use 'Vampire Retainer' on the field as a tribute for a Tribute Summon."
The girl's voice remains calm yet exudes an undeniable authority, like a commander issuing orders to the entire army.
"Appear, Vampire Scarlet Scourge!"
The retainer dissipates into a blood mist, and the scattered mist concentrates at a point, soon transforming into a new form. A male vampire emerges from the blood mist with elegance akin to a medieval noble, dressed in a black and white suit, a cloak resembling bat wings, and a sword in hand with a red gemstone embedded on the hilt.
[Vampire Scarlet Scourge, ATK 2200]
"Scarlet Scourge's effect." Vampire Fraulein continued, "When this card is summoned or Special Summoned, pay 1000 Life Points to Special Summon a 'Vampire' monster from the graveyard.
However, the monster Special Summoned by this effect cannot attack this turn."
[Vampire Fraulein, LP 7000 →LP 6000]
She withdrew another card from the graveyard.
"I Special Summon 'Vampire Red Baron'."
The sound of hooves arises, as a spectral horse gallops through the blood mist. A knight-like undead sits upon a metallic saddle, wielding a black spiral lance that leaves blood-stained trails in the air.
[Vampire Red Baron, ATK 2400]
"At this moment, the effect of 'Vampire Grace' in the graveyard activates," Vampire Fraulein continued, "Because of the Undead-Type monster effect, when a Level 5 or higher Undead-Type monster is Special Summoned to my field, pay 2000 Life Points, and this card is Special Summoned from the graveyard."
[Vampire Fraulein, LP 6000 →LP 4000]
Paying 2000 Life Points all at once, a vampire lady in a wide gown emerges from a black vortex, holding a red gemstone-encrusted staff as she joins the vampire ranks.
[Vampire Grace, ATK 2000]
"Then, 'Vampire Red Baron's effect activates," Fraulein continued, "Once per turn, pay 1000 Life Points to exchange control of a 'Vampire' and an opponent's monster.
I exchange control of 'Vampire Familiar' and 'Archlord Kristya' on your field."
[Vampire Fraulein, LP 4000 →LP 3000]
Red Baron sweeps with the lance, blood mist thickly conceals the vision. As clarity returns, the shining archangel has fallen, betraying its camp to join the vampires.
Meanwhile, the small black bat sneers as it shifts to the rich duo's field, continuing to mock with its mouth wide open.
[Vampire Familiar, ATK 500]
[Archlord Kristya, ATK 3200]
Pillow and Bro Nora glance at the clumsy, useless bat, suddenly speechless.
"Then activate the Magic Card 'Book of Life - Forbidden Spell'," Vampire Fraulein continued, "Special Summon an Undead-Type monster from your graveyard.
I revive 'Vampire Baby' from the graveyard."
A big-headed baby wrapped in a green cloak steps forth, its eyes emitting eerie blue light, reminiscent of a ghostly baby from horror films.
[Vampire Baby, ATK 700]
"After that, the subsequent effect of 'Book of Life' excludes an opponent's monster from the game. Exclude 'Kiteroid' from the game."
The forbidden spell triggers, withdrawing Kiteroid from Bro Nora's graveyard, excluded to the Other Dimension.
Local Nora Tatsu: "..."
With this, his invincible Kiteroid's knife-blocking turns are now reduced by one, leaving only one turn available.
"The effect of Continuous Magic 'Vampire Kingdom', pay 500 Life Points to grant an additional Normal Summon for a 'Vampire'."
[Vampire Fraulein, LP 3000 →LP 2500]
"I use 'Vampire Red Baron' and 'Vampire Baby' as tributes for a Tribute Summon—
— Level 7, Vampire Lady!"
The Red Baron and the Baby disappeared simultaneously, replaced by a voluptuous female vampire emerging from the blood mist. She had short silver hair, wore black leather armor, but exposed her flat, smooth abdomen.
Her features were equally exquisite and unforgettable, but unlike Fraulein, her beauty was more mature and voluptuous, a dangerous allure like thorns.
[Vampire Lady, Attack Power 2000]
"The effect of Vampire Lady," continued Fraulein, "once per turn, when successfully summoned, she absorbs a monster on the opponent's field with a higher level than herself as an equip card.
Her attack power can increase by the original attack power of the equipped monster.
Let Vampire Lady absorb 'Splendid Venus'!"
The female vampire flicked her silver short hair, blinking her beautiful eyes. Her crimson eyes emitted an eerie glow; the angel of the Planet Series shone with a similar radiance, fell into a daze, and was absorbed, becoming nourishment for the lady.
[Vampire Lady, Attack Power 2000 → Attack Power 4800]
"The effect of 'Vampire Grace'." Fraulein continued, "Once per turn, declare the type of a card, and the opponent must send one declared type of card from their deck to the graveyard.
I declare 'Magic Card,' so you must send one magic card from the deck to the graveyard."
The two exchanged glances, then each drew a magic card and sent it to the graveyard.
"At this moment, the effect of the Field Magic 'Vampire Kingdom.' When the opponent sends a card from their deck to the graveyard, I can send one Dark Attribute 'Vampire' from my hand or deck to the graveyard and destroy one card on the field."
She revealed a card.
"I send another 'Vampire's Familiar' from the deck to the graveyard," she said, "destroying one of your set cards on the field."
A set card flipped over, shattering into pieces under the light of Grace's wielded magic staff.
The Trap Card "Mirror Force," the revered power President Sandbag placed his hope on.
"Ah, my revered power...." President Sandbag wore a face as if he had fallen into the abyss of despair.
Of course, in reality, with 'Royal Decree' still in effect on the field, his revered power could not have been activated.
After what seemed like an eternity, the lengthy narrative finally reached the stage of the final assault.
"Battle." Vampire Fraulein raised her hand, "'Vampire Lady,' attack 'Vampire's Familiar.'"
[Vampire Lady, Attack Power 4800]
[Vampire's Familiar, Attack Power 500]
Fraulein tranquilly stated, "And while 'Vampire Kingdom' is on the field, only during the damage calculation of battle, the attack power of Vampire monsters increases by 500."
[Vampire Lady, Attack Power 4800 → Attack Power 5300]
The small bat was instantly torn to shreds by the overwhelming dark power, and the dark impact sent President Sandbag flying out, his body dispersing into endless light points before even touching the ground.
[Just a sandbag, LP 4000 → LP 0]
"At this moment, the effect of the Continuous Magic 'Vampire Domain.' The battle damage dealt by a 'Vampire' to the opponent restores my Life Points."
[Vampire Fraulein, LP 2500 → LP 7300]
"Continue the attack," she ordered, "Archlord Kristya, direct attack."
The bully that was Archangel Kristya showed no mercy, drawing a splendid arc straight towards the remaining native, Nora Tatsu!
"Then activate the effect of 'Kiteroid' in the graveyard!" Native Nora Tatsu exclaimed, "While in the graveyard, for one instance of direct attack battle damage from the opponent, it becomes 0!"
Now the highest attack power on Fraulein's field was Archangel; at least the last Kiteroid blocked this damage.
"Continue the attack." Vampire Fraulein continued, "'Vampire Scarlet Scourge,' direct attack! And at this moment, 'Vampire Kingdom's' effect, attack power increases by 500."
[Vampire Scarlet Scourge, Attack Power 2200 → Attack Power 2700]
[Native Nora Tatsu, LP 4000 → LP 1300]
"Domain effect, my Life Points recover."
[Vampire Fraulein, LP 7300 → LP 10000]
"Lastly, 'Vampire Grace,' direct attack." Her voice was without joy or sadness, "At the moment of battle, attack power increases by 500."
[Vampire Grace, Attack Power 2000 → Attack Power 2500]
As Grace raised her magic staff, the dark red brilliance surged towards him, native Nora Tatsu wore an expression of agony.
"Damn it, so we were just the cannon fodder to highlight the new BOSS's power..."
[Native Nora Tatsu, LP 1300 → LP 0]
