Chapter 9 Chestnut Ball
Li Fei Hua Yue was quite badly hurt; one of her ponytails came undone, but she remained completely unmoved and continued speaking.
"Since I only have Xyz Monsters on my field, I Special Summon 'Salvation Girl Malfa' from my hand, then Special Summon 'Salvation Girl Elise' from my Deck. I then Xyz Summon 'Salvation Girl Kaspitel' by stacking the levels of these two monsters."
"Activate Castiel's effect, remove one Xyz Material, add 'Exorcism Girl Stella' from your Deck to your hand, Normal Summon 'Exorcism Girl Stella' (ATK: 300 DEF: 800), activate her effect, Special Summon 'Exorcism Girl Sophia', activate 'Exorcism Girl Sophia's effect, draw one card, recover 800 Life Points, and attack White Bone Princess with 'Hymn of the Exorcism Girls'."
"I activate the White Bone Princess's special effect, sending her to the graveyard and lowering the attack power of all monsters on the field!" The White Bone Princess angrily made a face at the Exorcism Girls before jumping into the graveyard. The Exorcism Girls were now entangled in bones, their attack power greatly reduced.
But still, she was extremely angry and fought her way to Di Xing, punching him once. She even punched him twice more with 【Hymn of the Holy Mother of the Exorcising Girls】. After the Exorcising Girls' barrage of thug-like punches, Di Xing's health was reduced to 4900 points. Tsk, that hurts pretty much.
"How tenacious! I'll set two cards and end my turn. At that very moment, I'll activate the effect of [Hymn of the Holy Mother Who Saves the Maidens], removing one Xyz Material and banishing your Set cards."
"I activate this face-down card, [Undying Spirit], banishing one skeleton from my Graveyard, and Special Summon two Level 1 [Spirit Tokens] ATK:0 DEF:0"
"I chain-activate the third effect of [Hymn of the Salvation Maidens]. When my opponent activates their effect, I return [Miga Elis, the Salvation Maiden], which is used as Xyz Material for this card, to my Extra Deck. Then I Special Summon Miga Elis overlay on Hymn of the Salvation Maidens as an Xyz Summon from my Extra Deck."
"And because you have a card leaving your graveyard, I activate the effect of [Salvation Girl Stella] and overlay [Salvation Girl Asophele] on this card." Sophia's Sacred Armed Form appeared on the field, drawing her longbow.
After this back and forth, Li Fei Hua Yue's turn finally ended. The banishment of the Exorcising Maiden and the pseudo-single card Xyz Summoning were really troublesome. Di Xing really didn't want to use the White Bone Prince's effect to Special Summon the White Bone King, because that would mean losing 3 White Bone cards and 3000 ATK at once!
"My turn, draw a card, very good." Di Xing drew [Roasted Bone King].
Di Xing quickly mentally rehearsed the next move. Li Fei Hua Yue had two cards face-down in her back row. Judging from her choice to add "Where to Go with the Exorcising Maiden" to her hand last turn, she should have had "Prayer for the Exorcising Maiden" in her hand at that time.
So right now, she should have these two cards set on the field. Di Xing's plan is to Normal Summon Bone Roast King, then use Bone Roast King to trigger [Link Kuriboh], replenishing her hand and graveyard while surviving another turn. Li Fei Hua Yue should not have many Xyz Monsters left. If she can hold out for another turn, her win rate will greatly increase.
However, barring any unforeseen circumstances, Li Fei Hua Yue will activate the "Chain Prayer" effect to banish his "Bone King". Since the Bone King cannot activate its effect unless sent to the Graveyard, he can only activate the special effect of "Bone Prince", banishing the Bone Prince and two other Bone Kings from the Graveyard to Special Summon "Bone King" from the Deck.
At this point, the Bone King will have 7000 attack power, but because a card leaves the graveyard, she will likely activate the effect of "Saviour of the Soul Sophia" on the field, overlaying "Saviour of the Soul Mikaelis" onto this card and activating Mikaelis's effect to banish the Bone King.
In this case, you would have to discard your last card, "Bone Princess," to lower the ATK of the monsters on your opponent's field and add a Bone Princess to your Graveyard. Then, you would activate the effect of the second Bone Prince to Special Summon the last Bone Prince.
However, this would reduce the White Bone King's attack power to 5000, while the opponent's lowest-attack monster, [Saving Girl Asophele], would still have 900 attack power after the attack power reduction. Therefore, the White Bone King could only deal 4100 damage to her.
She currently has 4400 life points, 300 short of the goal. If we can't defeat her this turn, she will activate the "Together We Go" effect next turn and Xyz Summon "Salvation Girl Asophele" to bounce the Bone King back to her hand, and then she will be completely finished.
Damn it, I'm just 1000 attack power short, and there's only one skeleton. Even if I summon the Bone Princess, there's no Bone Prince in my deck. Wait a minute, a bolt of lightning flashed through Di Xing's mind, and the path to victory appeared!
"I activate the special effect of [Bone Prince], banishing this card and the other two Bone cards from my Graveyard, and Special Summon [Bone King] from my Deck. ATK:7000 DEF:0"
"If you have a card removed from your Graveyard, I activate the effect of [Saviour of Sophia] on the field, overlay [Saviour of Mikaelis] onto this card, and activate Mikaelis's effect to banish [Bone King] from your field."
"I activate the effect of [Undying Spirit] in the Graveyard." This card was sent to the Graveyard by the effect of [Bone Lord]. "Return the banished Bone Prince to the Deck, and set this card in the Graveyard back to the field."
"I Normal Summon [White Bone Princess], its effect activates, sending White Bone Prince to the Graveyard, then sending [White Bone Princess] to the Graveyard, lowering the ATK of all monsters on the field. Then I activate White Bone Prince's special effect, banishing 3 White Bone cards, and Special Summon my last monster, [White Bone King] ATK:6000 DEF:0. You had [Where Will the Exorcist Girl Go?] set on your field, right? That's it. I'll use [White Bone King] to attack [Exorcist Girl Asopheles]."
If this attack succeeds, we'll win. Di Xing clenched his fist excitedly.
"I discard [Globular Kuriboh] from my hand to change your Bone King to a defensive position."
"Kuriboh!?? That's a demon monster!!! Aren't you a D.Gray-man?"
Li Feihua blushed. "But...but it's so cute!"
Di Xing: Black guy with a question mark face
"Besides, I've already subdued it; it's now my friend, a good demon," Li Fei Hua Yue argued.
Di Xing was helpless. He never expected that the Exorcism Girl's deck would contain Kuriboh. Now he was out of options. "I set a Link Mark on the Evil Spirit Token, arrow confirms, Link Summon [Link Kuriboh], I end this turn." Di Xing still wanted to try his best.
When Li Fei Hua Yue saw the [link to Chestnut Ball], her eyes practically sparkled with excitement, filled with "It's so cute!" But her expression remained unchanged, only her cheeks flushed slightly.
"My turn, draw a card. I activate Kaspitel's effect, remove one Xyz Material, add 'Salvation Girl Malfa' from my Deck to my hand, then activate Mikaelis's special effect, remove one Xyz Material, add 'Salvation Girl Grasp the Demon' from my Deck to my hand, then activate Asophele's special effect, remove one Xyz Material, and return 'Link Kuriboh' to your hand." Li Fei Hua Yue looked at the Link Kuriboh bounced back into her hand, her eyes filled with reluctance.
"I activate [Salvation Maidens Grasp the Demon], and I stack Star with [Salvation Maidens Michaelis] and [Salvation Maidens Asopheles], then Special Summon [Salvation Maidens' Hymn] in the Extra Monster Zone. Activating Hymn's effect, I remove one Xyz Material and banish your [Bone King]."
"And because I performed an Xyz Summon of Exorcism Maiden, the second effect of [Exorcism Maiden Grasp the Demon] is activated. I declare that [White Bone Princess], until the end of this turn, all effects of [White Bone Princess] are negated."
Di Xing's lips twitched. Good heavens, this has given the White Bone Princess a psychological trauma. Even the White Bone King couldn't restrain her.
"If you only have an Xyz Monster on your field, Special Summon 'Salvation Girl Malfa' from your hand, then Normal Summon 'Salvation Girl Stella'. By leveling these two cards, Xyz Summon 'Salvation Girl Asophele'. 'Salvation Girl Asophele' attacks directly, instantly triggering the 3rd effect of 'Salvation Girl Grasp the Demon', destroying your face-down cards."
"I activate this face-down card, [Undying Spirit], banishing one Bone Lady from my Graveyard, and Special Summon two Level 3 [Spirit Tokens] ATK:0 DEF:0"
"Asofiel, Castiel, destroy those two tokens!" Asophier drew his longbow, and Castiel swung his holy lance, shattering the last two barriers on the Dixing field.
"【Saving Girl Mikaelis】launches a direct attack."
"Excluding the [Bone Boar Throw] from the graveyard, this attack is nullified."
"【Hymn of the Holy Mother for the Salvation of the Maidens】Direct Attack!" The Hymn of the Holy Mother unleashed a beam of holy light, striking the completely defenseless Di Xing directly. LP4900-2800=2100
"It's not over yet! [Hymn of the Holy Mother for the Salvation of the Maidens] can be used twice in the same battle phase. Hymn of the Holy Mother, perform a second direct attack."
This time, the unrestrained rescue girls swiftly flew across the field, rushing to Di Xing's side. A sword and a spear pierced Di Xing's chest. LP2100-2800≤0
Di Xing's health points dropped to zero. The massive impact sent him flying. Lei Xi, who was behind him, jumped up to catch him, but she was also thrown out with him. The two of them crashed heavily into the pile of wreckage behind them.
After completely defeating Di Xing, Li Fei Hua Yue took out a hair tie, retied her hair, then pulled out the chestnut ball, materialized it, and hugged it to her chestnut.
"Thanks to you, Kuriboh, we would have lost this time. But this guy is really tenacious; we need to bring him back to headquarters and investigate him thoroughly."
She carried the chestnut ball to the wreckage. "Come out. That attack shouldn't have knocked you unconscious."
There was no reply from the pile of wreckage, so she stopped talking and directly materialized Caspitel's Holy Lance. With a single swing, she sent half of the pile of wreckage flying. Then, she was dumbfounded to find that there was a large hole behind the pile of wreckage. Di Xing, riding the materialized undead Zoma and carrying Lei Xi, had already run out several hundred meters.
