Chapter 897: You Schemed Against Me, Hayato Kobayashi!
"X-BURNER!"
【Laval Judgment Lord】 received Tenma Yexing's order and spread its arms, flames burning and dancing in its hands. One hand reached backward, releasing flexible flames for support, while 【Laval Judgment Lord】's other hand aimed at 【Predaplant Chimerafflesia】, releasing a large amount of fierce flames to attack, like a volcanic eruption!
Seeing that 【Laval Judgment Lord】 was truly attacking, Hayato said with a panicked expression, "If 【Laval Judgment Lord】 attacks, victory is indeed closer...
But it's closer for my side!"
"What!?" Tenma Yexing was also startled by the words, not understanding Hayato's meaning, but saw the panic on Hayato's face fading, replaced by a "plan-succeeding" expression.
"You thought you were on the fifth floor, but unfortunately, I'm in the stratosphere. How can you be sure that what you see is the truth, Tenma Yexing?" Hayato seemed to be talking about this duel on the surface, but his words had another meaning, though he didn't point it out directly. "On the contrary, I wanted you to attack, which is why I made you think I didn't want you to attack!"
"Send 【Aleister the Invoker】 from my Hand to the Graveyard, and activate the effect targeting one Fusion Monster on my Field—【Predaplant Chimerafflesia】!" Sending the Aleister in his Hand to the Graveyard, Hayato waved his hand. "【Predaplant Chimerafflesia】's ATK/DEF increase by 1000 points until the end of this turn! This is a Quick Effect!"
"What!? A monster effect activated from the hand?!" Seeing 【Predaplant Chimerafflesia】 enveloped in a layer of blue radiance as 【Aleister the Invoker】's effect activated, Tenma Yexing was shocked.
"You schemed against me, Hayato Kobayashi!"
"If it's just an ATK increase, it won't trigger a battle replay. Don't run away, face Jeep... I mean 【Chimerafflesia】!" Hayato looked at 【Laval Judgment Lord】 which had already initiated an attack on 【Chimerafflesia】, and ordered 【Chimerafflesia】, "Nano-hormones injected, you're powered up, go!"
【Predaplant Chimerafflesia】 [ATK 2700 → 3700]
【Laval Judgment Lord】 [ATK 2700]
【Tenma Yexing: 2000 LP】
Facing the blazing flames that could have ignited a Plant, 【Chimerafflesia】 roared fearlessly, spreading its purple wings and releasing a storm that seemed to come from a Different Dimension. Behind it, 【Aleister the Invoker】, completely transparent like a ghost, weakly swung his staff, reciting a spell perfunctorily: "Demons and ghosts, begone, demons and ghosts, begone..."
Under the magic power provided by it, 【Laval Judgment Lord】's seemingly mighty flames were suppressed by the strong wind, instead surging back and swallowing 【Laval Judgment Lord】.
Watching his monster being swallowed by the flames, Tenma Yexing's eyes were about to split.
Just moments ago, he had described Hayato Kobayashi's Life Points as a "flickering candle". After all, if 【Predaplant Chimerafflesia】 hadn't appeared, Hayato's 3000 Life Points would have been reduced to a mere 300 after accepting 【Laval Judgment Lord】's attack.
But now, he himself had to accept a full 1000 points of damage from the returned flames with his only remaining 2000 Life Points, which would leave him with only a meager 1000 Life Points!
Next turn, Hayato Kobayashi could completely ignore the revived 【Supreme Sun】 and seize the weak point of 【Lavaburner】 with its 2100 ATK to launch a fierce attack. How could he defend himself!?
Tenma Yexing was both shocked and scared. What he feared was not that his soul would be taken by the Dark Game the instant his Life Points were reduced to zero if he lost this Dark Game. He feared that if he too died, who would avenge Mr. Pegasus?
That kind of thing... no! No, I don't want to lose!
Tenma Yexing raged in his heart, but didn't see a card in his Hand emitting thick dark aura, enveloping him. At the same time, a voice sounded in his heart:
‘I hear your desire. Then, let's make a deal.’
A deal? Tenma Yexing was stunned for a moment, then agreed without hesitation.
As long as he could achieve victory, anything was fine. It didn't matter if he sacrificed his Deck, or even himself, as long as he could avenge Mr. Pegasus!
‘I will help you kill Hayato Kobayashi,’ the voice sounded in Tenma Yexing's heart again. At the same time, as black mist spread from the card in his Hand and permeated his body, Tenma Yexing felt drowsy, and his body gradually became stiff and unable to move. ‘But, in exchange, your soul is mine. And while you're at it, return my body!’
"Boom!"
【Laval Judgment Lord】 was ignited by the pushed-back flames. The flames that weren't blocked by it blew towards Tenma Yexing along with the gale. High-temperature sparks landed on Tenma Yexing's ugly monster body, sizzled.
【Tenma Yexing: 2000 → 1000 LP】
Watching Tenma Yexing suffer the consequences of falling for Hayato's scheme, with only the last 1000 Life Points remaining, Keipei, watching from the sidelines, couldn't help but jump up excitedly. "Alright! Brother Hayato has gained the upper hand!"
"Hmph, the duel result was obvious from the start, there's no need to make a fuss." Kaiba also said calmly, "That Tenma Yexing lost the moment the duel began. The next turn will be the end of this duel."
"Isn't that obvious?" Alister curled his lip, glanced at the Field, but felt something strange. "Speaking of which, isn't the position that guy is standing in a bit different?"
Following Alister's line of sight, Kaiba also noticed that Tenma Yexing's position seemed a bit further forward than before.
"When I take battle damage, I activate the effect of this card in my Hand..." Tenma Yexing said, sounding like he wasn't too affected by the battle damage just now, but his voice showed a subtle change, as if he had become someone else.
Drawing a card from his Hand, Tenma Yexing raised it above his head, then suddenly looked up at Hayato, revealing a grin. "Special Summon myself!"
"Oh, prisoner gazing at the Starry Sky, unite with the foolish one blinded by illusion, and become the evil beast that seeks revenge on the World!"
"【Tragoedia】!"
The spirit roared, stomping its foot hard on the World. Amidst the trembling of the Ground, the spirit shouted its name to the World again.
【Tragoedia】 [Level 10/DARK] [Fiend/Effect] [ATK ? / DEF ?]
"He Special Summoned himself? Has that guy completely started seeing himself as a monster?" Alister raised an eyebrow. "Even Dartz wasn't this crazy."
Kaiba thought about Dartz's stance when he combined with the "Orichalcos God" during their decisive battle not long ago, and didn't comment. Even when he obtained the power of the "Orichalcos God" to destroy the World, Dartz, despite his ugly stance, never gave up his former identity.
However, watching "Tenma Yexing" call out 【Tragoedia】, Kaiba narrowed his eye. "Something feels different. This guy is different from the 'Tenma Yexing' just now."
"You're saying this guy isn't Tenma Yexing?" Alister didn't understand Kaiba's meaning. He looked at the somewhat uncertain Kaiba, then looked at Hayato on the Field and said, "But wasn't it this guy who was dueling Hayato Kobayashi since the beginning?"
"That's not it, it's his inner being. If I'm not mistaken, you should be 【Tragoedia】!" Looking at the strange "Tenma Yexing", Hayato pointed a finger at him and said sternly.
Hearing Hayato say this, "Tenma Yexing" smiled. "You actually saw through me, Hayato Kobayashi. Your perception is too sensitive, isn't it? No, rather than seeing something was off from my behavior, it seems like you've been suspicious about Tenma Yexing's state since earlier?"
"Leaving aside that disgusting bad smell on your body that's worse than mouse droppings in a Restroom, I'm not an idiot. Anyone could see that something was off with this guy Tenma Yexing, right?" Hayato curled his lip. "He thought Pegasus was killed by me and Yugi together, even though Pegasus is still alive. Combined with him saying that '【Tragoedia】 possesses the power to control human hearts', it clearly looks like you've controlled him in turn."
'Tenma Yexing' said proudly, "That's right. As expected of Hayato Kobayashi, I can't fool you at all. Unlike this idiot, under the influence of my power, he easily believed that with his power, he could truly control me, and even thought he could take the dominant position after combining with me."
"That's right, I am 【Tragoedia】, the grudge spirit sealed by the Priests of Ancient Egypt three thousand years ago. To avenge the Priests, to avenge the Pharaoh, I will destroy all 【Millennium Items】 from the World!"
'Tenma Yexing', or rather Tragoedia, looked at Hayato with malice instead of amusement. Hayato also noticed that he wasn't looking at him so much as the 【Millennium Ring】 on his chest. "The first thing to do is to eliminate all the owners of the 【Millennium Items】. Starting with you, Hayato Kobayashi!"
"As the reincarnation of that Pharaoh, you are ranked quite high on my revenge list."
"Let me make it clear beforehand, I am myself. Don't associate me with Meriamun, or Ramesses II, that guy." Hayato gave a cold snort, saying annoyedly, "Also, don't act like you can actually do it. Do you dare defy me, who possesses 【Chimerafflesia】?"
"Then let's wait and see, Hayato Kobayashi." Tragoedia opened his palm. "My ATK/DEF value increases by the number of cards in my Hand x 600 points. I have two cards in my Hand, so my ATK/DEF increase by 1200 points."
【Tenma Yexing→Tragoedia: 1000 LP, Hand: 2】
【Tragoedia】 [ATK ? / DEF ? → 1200 / 1200]
"Although this is a Special Summon during the Battle Phase, I don't plan to attack personally. The Battle Phase ends here." Drawing a card from his Hand, Tragoedia sent it to the Graveyard. "Then, in Main Phase 2, I send one monster card from my Hand to the Graveyard, and activate my own effect, targeting one face-up monster on the Opponent's Field with the same Level as that monster card, to gain control of that monster!"
"The monster card I sent to the Graveyard is this one, 【Diabolos, King of the Abyss】. Its Level is 8☆. The chosen effect target is naturally that 【Predaplant Chimerafflesia】 on your Field, which is also Level 8☆!"
As Tragoedia sent a card from his Hand to the Graveyard, his ATK/DEF value decreased, but he released an invisible power, attacking towards the 【Predaplant Chimerafflesia】 on Hayato's Field.
【Tragoedia】 [ATK 1200 / DEF 1200 → 600 / 600]
That effect seemed to be the source of 【Tragoedia】's ability to control human hearts. Moreover, unlike control cards like 【Change of Heart】 or 【Brain Control】, the monster taken by it would not return ownership at the End Phase, but would be permanently taken.
Seeing this, Hayato smiled disdainfully. "Only I take control of other people's monsters; no one takes control of my monsters. 【Chimerafflesia】 isn't just good-looking. Let me show you the strength of the Tearlaments' lackey!"
"Chain activation 【Predaplant Chimerafflesia】's effect! Once per turn, you can activate this effect by targeting one face-up monster on the Opponent's Field. Place one Predator Counter on that monster. Monsters with Predator Counters that are Level 2☆ or higher become Level 1☆. This effect can also be activated during the opponent's turn!"
"And 【Predaplant Chimerafflesia】's second effect is a Continuous Effect! As long as this card exists in the Monster Zone, the effects of monsters with Predator Counters activated by the Opponent are negated!"
Tragoedia, whose eyes were shining and attempting to permanently hypnotize 【Chimerafflesia】 through his line of sight, had the smile on his face instantly freeze. Dozens of vines suddenly shot out from the World, wrapping tightly around his entire body. Not only were all his limbs unable to move, but even his neck was wrapped by the thickest vine, choking him and making him unable to breathe.
As soon as he attempted to use his effect to control 【Chimerafflesia】, the vines would tighten further, and continuously plunder Tragoedia's own energy.
"No, don't! The power I've accumulated with such difficulty!" Watching the vines wrapped around him take away his power and bring it to Hayato's side, Tragoedia's heart was filled with wrath, but he had nowhere to vent it.
For today, he first sent the only remaining "Planet" card in his Hand, 【Suppression of Pluto】, to Tenma Yexing, tempting him to collect cards to break his seal. Then, little by little, he used his gradually recovering power to control his mind.
During that time, due to the despair in Tenma Yexing's subconscious, he also attracted that "God of Despair" who also set its sights on Tenma Yexing's body. Only with great difficulty did he defeat the severely injured opponent and gained the opponent's power. Furthermore, through hypnosis, he combined with Tenma Yexing to gain dominance, obtained a physical body in Reality, and finally waited until today, planning to use this invincible power to kill Hayato Kobayashi, the owner of the 【Millennium Ring】.
"Give me back my power!"
Tragoedia wailed, but was completely unable to resist 【Predaplant Chimerafflesia】's power. Amidst Hayato's wild laughter, like a villain, he was completely drained, kneeling weakly on the Ground.
【Tragoedia】 [ATK 600 / DEF 600 → 0 / 0]
"See? This is the outcome of a duelist personally stepping onto the field to duel. You never know what tormenting cards your opponent has." Finally, Hayato said quite calmly to Keipei Off-field, with a look of pity, "If possible, I actually wanted to switch my opponent to someone like 【Dark Magician Girl】, and then use cards like 【Torture Wheel】 or 【Nightmare Wheel】."
"Mainly because I especially like dueling."
"Do you really want to duel? You clearly just want people's bodies, you're despicable." Alister looked at Hayato with disdain, and retorted.
"X-BURNER!"
【Laval Judgment Lord】 received Tenma Yexing's order and spread its arms, flames burning and dancing in its hands. One hand reached backward, releasing flexible flames for support, while 【Laval Judgment Lord】's other hand aimed at 【Predaplant Chimerafflesia】, releasing a large amount of fierce flames to attack, like a volcanic eruption!

"What!? A monster effect activated from the hand?!" Seeing 【Predaplant Chimerafflesia】 enveloped in a layer of blue radiance as 【Aleister the Invoker】's effect activated, Tenma Yexing was shocked.
"You schemed against me, Hayato Kobayashi!"
"If it's just an ATK increase, it won't trigger a battle replay. Don't run away, face Jeep... I mean 【Chimerafflesia】!" Hayato looked at 【Laval Judgment Lord】 which had already initiated an attack on 【Chimerafflesia】, and ordered 【Chimerafflesia】, "Nano-hormones injected, you're powered up, go!"
【Predaplant Chimerafflesia】 [ATK 2700 → 3700]
【Laval Judgment Lord】 [ATK 2700]
【Tenma Yexing: 2000 LP】
