"Revive 'Yellow Springs Frog' from the graveyard!"
The little frog with a golden halo above its head flew back to the field, flapping its wings and landing beside.
[Yellow Springs Frog, Defense Power 100]
The Evil God said, "Next, activate the Equipment Magic 'Sacrificial Burial Goods,' equipping it to 'Yellow Springs Frog.'
When the monster equipped with this card is used as a sacrifice for an Upper-level Summon, this Equipment Card can also be viewed as a sacrifice." (Original Card)
The Equipment Magic appeared in the backfield, empowering Yellow Springs Frog. This allowed Yellow Springs Frog to be used as two sacrifices with just one card.
Evil God: "Then there's the Continuous Magic 'Netherworld's Treasure Scroll.'
As long as this card exists on the field, whenever I use more than two monsters as sacrifices for an Upper-level Summon, I can draw two cards from the deck!"
Judai: "This setup and preparation, it's the rhythm for another Upper-level Summon..."
Yubel said, "However, his Evil God Card is already in the graveyard. And even counting 'Sacrificial Burial Goods,' Yellow Springs Frog can only act as two sacrifices, not meeting the conditions to summon the Summoning God."
But then the Evil God suddenly burst into laughter.
"It seems you think my ace is just a god." The Evil God said, "But I said that my deck draws from the power of more than one world, exceeding your imagination!
I offer Yellow Springs Frog and the 'Sacrificial Burial Goods' equipped to it as two sacrifices! Upper-level Summon!
The origin of the Planet Series——
——Supreme Sun!!!"
Judai: "!?"
Supreme... Sun!?
In the next moment, he indeed saw that after the frog was sacrificed, it was as if a blazing sun rose from the other side of the horizon, except that this sun was entirely black. It hung high in the sky, burning with black flames, and finally took the form of a majestic giant on the field, though the flames behind it remained ink-black.
[Supreme Sun, Attack Power 3000]
"Yugen's Sun..." Judai couldn't help but say, "Why is this card here!?"
If Yellow Springs Frog is just a common card of no particular interest, the concept of the sun is entirely different. Supreme Sun is not just any Rare Card, but one of the only nine in the world, each unique and part of the "Planet Series," an absolute limited edition Rare Card.
Moreover, Judai happened to know its owner; after Little Lobster Tragodia was vanquished, Supreme Sun came into Yugen's possession.
"Impossible." Judai muttered, "Could it really be as he said..."
Obtained from other worlds?
What kind of world? An Elf Dimension?
Judai's knowledge was no longer that of an ordinary person; he had been to many Other Dimensions before. He immediately thought that perhaps there are Planet Series cards still existing in some Elf Dimension, which is also possible.
In his present world, it is known that there are only three Blue-Eyes White Dragons and one True Ultimate Blue-Eyes Dragon, all in Seto Kaiba's possession. But research suggests that this is limited to their known world; more Blue-Eyes White Dragon cards could exist in the Elf World.
For instance, the elf created to honor President Kaiba himself, "Justice Partner - Sea Horseman" has at least three Blue-Eyes and one Ultimate Dragon.
Yet, inexplicably, Judai instinctively felt that the other worlds mentioned by the Evil God might not be as simple as other Elf Dimensions.
Perhaps what the Evil God referred to... was the true 'Otherworld.'
"Due to the Upper-level Summon of 'Supreme Sun,' the effect of Continuous Magic 'Netherworld's Treasure Scroll' activates." The Evil God said, "I draw two cards from the deck."
The Evil God drew two cards and then immediately revealed one from his hand.
"Activate Continuous Magic 'Dark Sun.'" The Evil God said, "Dark Sun allows LP recovery equal to the Attack Power value when his monster is destroyed.
Moreover, when a monster is Special Summoned from the graveyard, that monster's Attack Power can be increased by 1000 points!"
The Dark Sun has also been materialized, the effect fairly restored. However, the physical card is designed to recover "original Attack Power value" LP when the monster is destroyed, whereas the original version recovers based on Attack Power value.
Additionally, the physical card adds the effect that "if you discard a Magic or Trap Card from your hand, you can recover one discarded Magic Trap to your hand," which the original version does not have.
Its name and effects suggest that this card was designed to pair with the immortal ability of repeated resurrection possessed by 'Supreme Sun.'
"Supreme Sun, attack the 'Elemental Hero Clayman'!"
The Evil God shouted, and Supreme Sun instantly unleashed black flames. The black fire enveloped the clay-bodied hero, this Four-Star hero enduring flames far beyond his level, and his sturdy body immediately began to crack, quickly reduced to a mass of black ashes.
"I said, since you dare come to my territory, whatever special you possess has no chance whatsoever!"
The Evil God laughed maniacally.
"Set another card facedown in the backfield and end the turn!"
Judai waved his hand to disperse the scorched smell in front of him, saying: "Supreme Sun, I remember this card's ability is... every time it's sent to the graveyard, during the next turn's preparation phase it revives to the field."
Yubel said: "Furthermore, he has the Evil God himself in his graveyard. If he resurrects the Evil God, it can activate the effect to sweep the field..."
Just like in the last turn, the resurrection of the Eraser from the graveyard can trigger its effect to clear the field, and in the next turn's preparation phase Supreme Sun will automatically revive.
Seen this way, Supreme Sun seems to be a monster complementing the Eraser's abilities.
"One responsible for clearing the field, the other for being the immortal fighter." Judai said, "That's certainly a frightening combination indeed."
Though his words expressed fear, Judai's face now seemed uncontrollably joyful, as if he were also expectant.
Yubel glanced at him and also couldn't help but smile: "Well, this is the Judai I know. You're not going to be deterred by something of this extent, are you?"
"Naturally." Judai smiled, exclaiming, "My turn, draw!"
"Activate Magic Card 'Angel's Charity,' draw three cards from the deck, then discard two cards from my hand!"
Judai drew cards and then discarded two from his hand.
"Then, Magic Card 'Transformation Contact'! Send one 'New Space Hero' monster each from my hand and deck to the graveyard, then draw two cards from the deck!"
Judai's deck auto-searched, ejecting a card. Judai pulled it out into his hand and sent it to the graveyard with a card from his hand. Then he drew two cards.
"It doesn't matter if it's an Evil God or a Solar entity to me, as long as I can defeat them!"
Judai played the card in his hand.
"Activate Trap Card 'New Cosmic Expansion' from my hand!"
