# Chapter 86: Lunalight VS Gem-Knight
Mizutani Ri's set card was destroyed by the tornado, revealing its true form.
"Storming Mirror Force, an attack declaration trap that returns all attacking monsters to the hand? No wonder you were so confident," Serena said, completely disregarding Mizutani Ri's disgusted expression.
"The effect of Lunalight Perfume in my Graveyard activates! I banish this card from the Graveyard and discard one card from my hand to add one 'Lunalight' monster from my Deck to my hand."
"I discard Lunalight Purple Butterfly from my hand and add Lunalight Kaleido Chick to my hand!"
"Next, I activate the Spell Card, Foolish Burial Goods! I send a spell card from my Deck to the Graveyard. I'll send my second Lunalight Perfume to the Graveyard and then activate its effect!"
"I discard a second Lunalight Emerald Bird to add Lunalight Tiger to my hand!"
"The effect of Lunalight Purple Butterfly in my Graveyard activates!"
"I banish this card from the Graveyard to Special Summon one 'Lunalight' monster from my hand."
"Appear! Lunalight Kaleido Chick!"
"Lunalight Kaleido Chick's effect activates! Once per turn, I can send one 'Lunalight' monster from my Deck or Extra Deck to the Graveyard. This turn, if this card is used as a Fusion Material, its name can be treated as the name of the monster sent to the Graveyard."
"I send Lunalight Cat Dancer from my Extra Deck to the Graveyard! Then, I activate the Spell Card, Lunalight Fusion!"
"I send Fusion Materials for a 'Lunalight' Fusion Monster from my hand or field to the Graveyard to Fusion Summon that monster from my Extra Deck. Since you control a monster that was Special Summoned from the Extra Deck, I can also use one 'Lunalight' monster from my Deck or Extra Deck as Fusion Material."
"I fuse Lunalight Kaleido Chick on my field, treated as Lunalight Cat Dancer, with Lunalight Crimson Fox from my Deck!"
Serena clasped her hands before her chest. On the field, Lunalight Kaleido Chick transformed into the phantom of a cat dancer and intertwined with the crimson fox, merging into one.
"O red fox that mesmerizes all under the moon! O beautiful beast that dances in the moonlight! Let the moon's gravity create a vortex and be reborn as new power! Fusion Summon! Appear! The graceful beast dancing on the Lunalight plains! Level 8! Lunalight Panther Dancer!"
A dark-skinned dancer with a black panther tail stepped out of the vortex, performing a captivating dance. A cold glint flashed from her hands, adorned with golden rings, as her claws extended, exuding a wild and dangerous aura.
"When Lunalight Crimson Fox is sent to the Graveyard by a card effect, I can target one face-up monster you control. That monster's ATK becomes 0 until the end of the turn."
Gem-Knight Lady Brilliant Diamond ATK: 3400 → 0
"Lunalight Panther Dancer's effect activates! This turn, each of your monsters cannot be destroyed by battle once, and this card can attack each of your monsters twice."
The panther dancer roared, and the golden rings hovering around her wrists emitted a dazzling light. All three of Mizutani Ri's monsters on the field were enveloped in a purple glow.
"Battle!" Serena waved her hand. "Lunalight Panther Dancer, attack Gem-Knight Lady Brilliant Diamond!"
As her voice fell, the panther dancer sprang forward, extending her claws toward Brilliant Diamond's sturdy gemstone armor.
"Trap Card, Waboku, activate!" Just then, Mizutani Ri flipped her last set card.
"This turn, my monsters cannot be destroyed by battle, and all battle damage I take becomes 0."
Lunalight Panther Dancer's attack was blocked by a golden light shield, forcing her to return with nothing to show for it.
"I set three cards and end my turn." Serena set her cards, then concluded her turn.
"This turn, I'll make you pay!" Mizutani Ri gritted her teeth as she drew a card. "My turn! I draw!"
"At this moment, Tornado Dragon's effect activates! Once per turn, I can detach one Xyz Material from this card to target one Spell or Trap on the field and destroy it. This is a Quick Effect, so it can be activated during your turn." Serena pointed at Mizutani Ri's Brilliant Fusion in her backrow.
A violent tornado instantly shredded the Continuous Spell, and the Gem-Knight Lady Brilliant Diamond bound to it also shattered into pieces.
"When your card leaves the field, the monster Fusion Summoned with it is also destroyed, right?" Serena stated calmly.
"Damn it..." Having lost a key monster before her turn even began, Mizutani Ri glared fiercely at Serena.
"I activate the Spell Card, Absorb Fusion!"
"I add one 'Gem-Knight' card from my Deck to my hand, then banish Fusion Material Monsters listed on a 'Gem-Knight' Fusion Monster from my hand or field to Fusion Summon that monster from the Extra Deck."
"I add Gem-Knight Emerald to my hand, then banish Gem-Knight Amber and the LIGHT-Attribute monster Crystal Rose from my hand! Fusion Summon!"
"O brilliant gemstone! Heed the sacred light and be reborn in a new form! Fusion Summon! Appear! Level 5, Gem-Knight Zirconia!"
Gem-Knight Zirconia ATK: 2300
"Next, I summon Gem-Knight Emerald in Attack Position!"
"As long as Gem-Knight Zirconia is in the Monster Zone, I can perform an additional Normal Summon once during my Main Phase."
"I summon Gem-Knight Sapphire in Attack Position!"
"I activate the effect of Gem-Knight Emerald! I banish this card and one face-up Normal Monster from my field to Special Summon a 'Gem-Knight' Fusion Monster from my Graveyard."
"Revive! Gem-Knight Lady Brilliant Diamond!"
Gem-Knight Lady Brilliant Diamond ATK: 3400
"I activate the effect of Gem-Knight Lady Lapis Lazuli! Once per turn, I can send one 'Gem-Knight' monster from my Deck or Extra Deck to the Graveyard to inflict damage to my opponent equal to the number of Special Summoned monsters on the field times 500."
"I send Gem-Knight Topaz from my Deck to the Graveyard. There are currently six Special Summoned monsters on the field, so that's a total of 3000 damage! Die, you fusion traitor!" Mizutani Ri shrieked, as the pendant on her dark blue Gem-Knight's chest shot a beam of golden light toward Serena.
"At this moment, I activate my trap! Damage Diet!"
"All damage I take this turn is halved."
Serena LP: 2500 → 1000
"I activate the effect of Gem-Knight Lady Brilliant Diamond! Once per turn, I can send one face-up 'Gem-Knight' monster from my field to the Graveyard to Special Summon one 'Gem-Knight' Fusion Monster from my Extra Deck, ignoring its summoning conditions."
"I send Gem-Knight Sapphire from my field to the Graveyard! From my Extra Deck, I Special Summon a second Gem-Knight Lady Lapis Lazuli!"
Gem-Knight Lady Lapis Lazuli ATK: 2400
