Chapter 186: Many People Are Disillusioned for the First Time when They Are Weaned
"Did you know that there is a 'freshness' to despair?" Like a competent teacher, Hayato raised a finger and said, "The appearance of [Clown and Lock Bird] at the beginning can indeed make people happy." People fall into the emotion of despair at the beginning, but the stimulation is too superficial. The more fearful and desperate the emotion is, the more completely the intensity of the emotion disappears. There are even cases where people no longer feel hopeless after reaching the extreme level of despair. .”
"Despair in the true sense is by no means a static state but a dynamic state of change. The change from a calm mood to despair is never as strong as the emotion at the moment when hope degenerates into despair. This is the [original life state - Nibi] Lu], you are gradually unfolding against the restrictions of [Joker and Lockbird], and you are the meteor of despair that wipes out everything at the moment hope is born!"
Compared with cards such as [Gray Flow Rei] that block one expansion, [Original Life Form - Nibiru] is also a high-quality hand trap, but its properties are completely different. It is not to cut off other people's hope from the beginning, but to suddenly fall and destroy everything when the development on the other side is gradually improving.
After a pause, Hayato pointed to Saotome and continued, "To give you a little comfort, the subsequent effect of [Primitive Life Form - Nibiru] is to put another [Primitive Life Form Derivative] on the opponent's field. Special call.”
"And its attack power and defense power are the sum of the attack power and defense power of the released monster."

Seeing his [Original Life Form - Nibiru] separate derivatives at the Saotome Ceremony, Hayato raised the corners of his lips and said frivolously: "What's the use of summoning so many monsters? In the end, it doesn't just turn into derivatives. ? Why don’t you quickly say, ‘Thank you, Hayato-san’?”
"After all, I gave you a pretty powerful monster, didn't I?"
When Rei Saotome heard what Hayato said, she said angrily: "What's the use of just having high attack power! It can't be compared to the monster I was liberated!"
"In fact, this is love, isn't it? What you lose is often not equal to what you gain, even in life. But you don't have to be grateful to me for teaching you this truth. After all, there is no duelist more caring than me."
Hearing Hayato's words, Saotome Rei curled her lips: "Who wants to thank you for that kind of thing!"
Obviously, she had already taken the [Flash Barrier Statue] on the field before. In the past, Saotome Rei only knew that Kobayashi Hayato's deck contained many cards that revolved around "liberation" as the main tactic, but who would have thought that he would actually There are also cards that can liberate the opponent's monsters during the opponent's turn, or even a light-attributed [Original Life Form - Nibiru] that is not restricted by [Flash Barrier Image]?
Have all the efforts I made before been in vain?
Looking at the cards in her graveyard, Saotome clenched her fists, but showed a confident smile: "Free my monster, and then send me a token full of your humiliation to me, you Do you think you will succeed? No way, I said I would reveal your dark true face to the world, how could I be defeated by you so easily!"
"You sent all the monsters on my field to the graveyard. However, this just helped me summon this monster!"
In Saotome Rei's graveyard, light bloomed, which was emitted by the [Light Path] monsters in her graveyard. But this is just Saotome Rei's own feeling, but in Hayato's eyes, the source of those lights is clearly Saotome Rei's body. To be more specific, it is simply that the power that Saio left in Saotome Rei's body is being fully mobilized with the duel. , using the power of the monster cards in her graveyard that responded to her to surge toward a card in her hand!
[Light Path Summoner-Luminas], [Light Path Assassin-Leden], and [Light Path Beast-Wolf] were previously smashed into by [Original Life Form-Nibiru]. The [Light Path] monsters in the cemetery appeared one after another, and then a monster that Hayato didn't expect appeared, the star card of [Light Path] in the card story, the famous licking dog [Light Path Hound-Thunder Light].
Although it only has 200 points of attack power and 100 points of defense power, the effect of [Light Hound-Thunder Light], which is a reverse monster, is more advanced than [Man-eating Bug], which takes the target and blasts the monster. card, and also has the same effect of stacking three cards from the top of the deck, which can be used flexibly to avoid traps by giving up destroying cards and just stacking graves. It can be said to be quite easy to use.
At the same time, the "Light Reinforcement" card in Saotome's hand, although it is useless for the time being, but very useful in the "Light Road" deck, has the same ability to stack three cards in the grave, and at the same time, it can also draw another card from the deck. Retrieve a lower-level [Light Path], and the [Light Reinforcement] card picture is exactly the picture of [Light Path Hound-Thunder Light] joining the battlefield.
As for why it is said to be a licking dog?
Ahem, let’s not mention the topic of dog licking. Hayato doesn’t remember when Saotome used this card before, so the only time he can send it to the cemetery is——
Recalling the two phantoms of monsters that flashed in the slash mark when [Light Path Assassin - Raiden] activated its effect before, one of them was [Light Path Beast - Wall] that jumped to the Saotome Arena with its own effect. Husband], Hayato looked at Saotome and saluted: "I see, the two cards [Light Path Assassin - Raiden] sent to the graveyard, the other card besides [Light Path Beast - Wolf] is that one Licking a dog?”
"It's not a 'dog licker', it sounds so ugly!" Rei Saotome said unhappily, "But [Light Path Hound - Thunder Light] was indeed sent to the cemetery by [Light Path Assassin - Raiden] at that time. And now, if the types of [Light Path] monsters in my graveyard are 4 or more types, the special summoning conditions for this card in my hand are met!”
The [Light Paths] behind Saotome Rei turned into rays of light and flew into the card in her hand, and the rays of light gathered into a brand new white dragon.
"The supreme judge who signed a contract with the original saint, upholds absolute justice and turns it into a dazzling light that shakes the earth, piercing the darkness-devouring chaos with light!" Raising the card in his hand above his head, Rei Saotome shouted, "Come, Dragon of the Holy Beast!"
"[Dragon of Judgment]!"
【Dragon of Judgment】【8☆/Light】
[Dragon/Special Summon/Effect]
【3000/2600】
"This is the strongest ace monster in my deck, the supreme dragon that is more powerful than the legendary [Blue Eyes White Dragon] - [Dragon of Judgment]!"
"In terms of data, it is indeed 100 points higher than the defense power of [Blue Eyes]. But the specific strength is different." Hayato shrugged and said indifferently after hearing Rei's words, "It doesn't feel as good as [Explosive Wind Bullet of Destruction]."
"How arrogant! Then let's see the power of the [Dragon of Judgment] that you look down upon!" Rei Saotome looked at Hayato with an unhappy expression, "I'm going to use it against you, Hayato Kobayashi, who has committed an unforgivable crime. The decision is made right now, right here!”
Along with the ceremony, she raised her right hand high, and the [Dragon of Judgment] on her field also raised its right paw simultaneously. Its scarlet dragon eyes looked down at the audience, and light quickly gathered in its scarlet paws.
"You seize other people's cards for your own benefit, use your hypocritical appearance to deceive the girl's heart, and just now you despised the power of the [Dragon of Judgment]. Hayato Kobayashi, who has successively committed crimes of greed, lust, and arrogance, is no longer an ordinary person. He is evil and must be attacked hard!"
Obvious light spots visible to the naked eye appeared on her body. As her base points dropped, the light spots floating from Saotome Rei's body poured into the claws of [Dragon of Judgment]. "Pay me 1,000 base points to activate [Dragon of Judgment]." The effect of [Dragon] will destroy all other cards on both sides except [Dragon of Judgment]!”
"Light of Judgment!"
Rei Saotome waved her right hand forward, and [Dragon of Judgment] also pressed its right claw. The large amount of light energy gathered in the claw was compressed and then released, sweeping the entire audience in just an instant!
Not only the large piece of meteorite left behind by [Original Life Form - Nibiru] embedded in the ground at Hayato Field, but also the alien life form split from the meteorite at Saotome Ceremony Field was also destroyed by [Dragon of Judgment] The first time the light hit, it was destroyed, destroyed, and dissipated into the invisible!
【Saotome Ceremony: 4000→3000LP】
Without taking the initiative to lower her base points, Saotome Rei also wanted to destroy the [Original Life Form Derivatives] and [Original Life Form - Nibiru] that Hayato left on her field to restore the field to a clean state. Only she monsters are on the field!
"This is the only decent result. It would be great to be like this. Everything is so pure and there are no superfluous things to get in the way." Looking at the only [Dragon of Judgment] left on both sides, Rei Saotome looked at Hayato and said, "I just end this turn like this, and then in my end phase, the second effect of [Dragon of Judgment] is activated, sending four cards from the top of my deck to the graveyard."
Turning over the four cards from the top of the deck, Rei Saotome sent them to the graveyard one by one, but at this time she took back another card and said, "Then after being sent from the deck to the graveyard by the monster's effect, In this case, the effect of [Light Path Archer-Felice] in my graveyard is activated, and she is specially summoned on my field!"
The green-haired cat girl archer came to the Saotome Ceremony and stood guard beside the sacred [Dragon of Judgment] as a bodyguard, with the bow and arrow in her hand ready for use at any time.

The younger the child is and has not experienced many things, the more he is full of fantasies about everything, thinking that everything is in the best state. Although Saotome Rei is smart and precocious, she also has such fantasies, fantasizing about Hayato. She was the perfect duel king in her imagination, and she imagined that her feelings would be accepted by Hayato and lead to a beautiful love affair.
With such naive illusions, she didn't realize King Sai's thoughts at all and really thought that he was a good person to help her. However, after arriving on the Duel Academy Island, she faced Hayato and encountered the situation where Hayato actively destroyed her. The “shock truth” of the image.
Her [Light Path] deck symbolizes part of her fantasy for a perfect world. At this moment, the [Dragon of Judgment] comes just in response to her desire, correcting everything on the field back to her. The most perfect state in fantasy.
But at the same time, the [Dragon of Judgment] was also passively absorbing the power left by King Sai and gradually awakened. Although the [Girl in Love] shared part of the destructive magic power of light, even if the [Judgment] Dragon] cannot control Saotome Rei, but will also subtly change her mental state and make her character extreme.
This made Hayato think of the end of the [Light Path], starting with the girl "Minerva" who was suddenly selected as a saint, and became the leader of the [Light Path] who could even communicate with the supreme [Dragon of Judgment]. The internal differences that had accumulated for a long time due to the conflict between the concepts of "justice" and "absolute justice" finally evolved into a split.
A group of "original" [Light Paths] including [Light Path Hound - Thunder Light] and [Light Path Summoner - Luminas] rebelled against [Light Path] and became [Twilight Path], and even their beliefs It also gave birth to the black dragon [Dragon of Punishment] that represents the "ideal", which is completely opposite to the white dragon [Dragon of Judgment] that represents "reality".
A civil war broke out between [Light Path] and [Twilight Path], and the black and white dragons of reality and ideals also fought together. In the end, the [Justice World], which advocated absolute justice, was completely destroyed in the light that bloomed during the battle.
It has to be said that King Zai really puts his power on the person who is most suitable for him. The card in the [Light Path] deck that symbolizes the end of [Light Path] is not the same as the "Destruction of Destruction" that resides in him. "Light" has the same name. Even Saotome Rei's own thoughts are similar to Sai's, both dreaming of a world where everything is perfect, but Sai's is because of his childhood experiences, while Saotome's is just because of a broken love.
Under such a premise, Hayato, as the protagonist, must not sit idly by and watch Saotome Rei become more and more extreme under the influence of King Sai. He, who is the most benevolent and kind-hearted person, must use a peaceful attitude to impress Saotome Rei. , use a heart of love and justice to influence the doubts in her heart, and tell her that although everything in her fantasy is full of contradictions with the reality of the world, as long as she keeps working hard and never stops, the road to the future will continue to stretch, and then there will be a future. One day she will surely realize her ideal world——
"Haha, hahahahahaha, do you think that you can defeat me, Hayato Kobayashi, who is a god, just in a duel of this level? Such naive fantasies are really disgusting." Hayato held three cards in his hand and laughed wildly with one hand on his hip. He smiled like a villain, "You even used your own monster to reject the gift from me, Hayato Kobayashi? The price of disobeying the gods is irreparable fear, the fear of my god's talent!"
"Are you ready for despair?"
"My turn, draw a card!"
In the early days, Guangdao's main focus was to pull and accumulate resources. After the consumption was almost complete, he took out the Dragon of Judgment to blow up the field, and then directly A-faced to clear the opponent's basic points.
Rounding things off, can this also be regarded as a kind of "Dragon Fist"?
