Chapter 1281: God's Magic
"Quick-Play Spell – Thunderspeed Summon!"
From the fact its name resembled "Thunder Summon Bullet", it's not hard to figure out that this card was a special magic closely related to Osiris, one of the three Egyptian Gods.
"During the Main or Battle Phase: Immediately after this effect resolves, Normal Summon 1 Level 10 monster."
"A divine magic that can summon God during the opponent's turn?" Paradox asked.
In fact, when "King's Knight", "Queen's Knight" and "Jack's Knight" were on the field at the same time, Thunderspeed Summon also had the effect of retrieving "1 Level 10 non-DARK monster with ? ATK" from the deck.
However, because the summoning of Jack's Knight was interrupted by the invincible Skill Drain, he failed to appear, so this effect could not be used.
"Therefore, I Tribute the ‘Joker's Knight', ‘King's Knight', and ‘Winged Kuriboh' on the field! Tribute Summon!"
Yuei Vu raised the last card in his hand, turned the card face up, and the card instantly burst out with a thousand-foot divine light!
"Through reality and the underworld, appearing in the chaos of thunder–
–Osiris the Sky Dragon!!!"The three monsters were released, turning into countless golden powders, rushing into the sky along the light column surrounded by thunder! The sky was pierced, the earth was wailing, the giant dragon twisted its red body, and dazzling thunder and lightning were brewing in its mouth!
The judge of hell who existed from ancient times and had endless divine power, Osiris the Sky Dragon!
The dragon's roar resounded through the world, and the divine power shocked the whole field. The realm of sin seemed to tremble under the oppression of God, and it seemed that it would collapse at any time due to being overwhelmed.
However, although it looks majestic and powerful, in fact…
[Osiris the Sky Dragon, ATK 0]
"Ha."
Paradox saw the stat clearly and seemed relieved.
"Although it is rare to summon an Egyptian God, Osiris's attack power is determined by the number of cards in hand, right?" Paradox said, "In other words, now that the number of cards in your hand is 0, Mr. Yuei Vu's Egyptian God's attack power is only 0, strong on the outside but weak on the inside"
A paper tiger with zero attack power, I was almost fooled by it.
Even Osiris yelled at Yuei Vu with some dissatisfaction, as if questioning:
Why did you call me out without cards? Come out to get beaten?
I am the Judge of Hell, and you have made me lose all my face…
"Open the set card: Trap Card – The Gift of Greed!" Yuei Vu snapped his fingers, "The opponent draws two cards from the deck."
Yusei: "?"
Paradox: "?"
What is this meaningless thing?
Is there a card that actively sends resources? Make friends with the opponent?
But seeing the top two cards of his deck pop up, Paradox thought about it and still drew these two cards honestly.
"Then according to the effect of ‘Gift of Greed'. I draw two cards."
"At this moment, open the set card: Trap Card – Talisman of Reversal!" Yuei Vu raised his hand and flipped the backcourt, "When the opponent adds a card to the hand, except during their Draw Phase, I can draw cards until I have the same number of cards in my hand as the opponent!" (Animation card)
"What!?" Paradox's pupils shrank.
Did you actively send me cards for this purpose?
In this way, the opponent only had to draw two cards, while Yuei Vu could…
"My hand is 0, and you have seven cards after receiving the card-drawing effect!" Yuei Vu said, "So, I draw seven cards from the deck!"

After getting seven cards in one go, Yuei Vu snapped his fingers again.
"At the same time, the attack power of ‘Osiris the Sky Dragon' increases!"
[Osiris the Sky Dragon, ATK 0 → ATK 7000]
Paradox frowned: "But during the effect of ‘Skill Drain', any monster effect should be negated. Even if it is a monster that is ‘unaffected by card effects', as long as ‘Skill Drain' has taken effect before it appears, it should be negated."
According to the rules of Yu-Gi-Oh, this was indeed the case. The effect that came first always be served first. If "Skill Drain" already existed on the field in advance, then even if you summoned a monster that was "unaffected by trap effects", the effect would be negated.
"But ‘unaffected by trap effects' is not the effect of Osiris, but the characteristic of the Egyptian God." Yuei Vu explained.
Indeed, the "unaffected by trap effects" ability of the three Egyptian Gods in the animation card did not appear in the text as a card effect. If you must make an analogy, it may be closer to the "condition card text" of the real card.
Condition card text was closer to a certain rule, which could not be negated.
"Tsk, is there such a thing?"
Paradox thought about it, and his eyes immediately swept across his other hand.
Although he couldn't compare with Osiris's attack power for the time being, he did have defensive means.
The Continuous Trap "Spirit Barrier" would cause all battle damage to him to become 0 as long as there were monsters on his field.
As long as this defense line was there, no matter how high the attack power of the god was, he couldn't be killed and could wait for another opportunity.
"Set a card, I end my turn."
Facing an Egyptian God was something he expected. When he decided to duel with Yuei Vu, he could actually guess that a god would definitely appear.
If I don't overcome the Egyptian God, I can't say that I have truly defeated Yuei Vu!
Yuei Vu: "My turn, draw."
[Osiris the Sky Dragon, ATK 7000 → ATK 8000]
"With the combination of Malefic and ‘Skill Drain', you have indeed shown me a completely different strength from the past." Yuei Vu said lightly, "The full-field effect neutralization, combined with the high attack suppression that the Malefic series is best at, can really make most decks helpless, right?"
Yusei on the side was also silent.
Indeed, if he was unprepared to face such a tactic, he might also fail. His deck was a swarm deck that relied heavily on monster effects, and had no power to resist the Skill Drain.
"Then I will also show some power that I have never shown before." Yuei Vu paused, "I'll release the true power of Osiris here."
Paradox was shocked.
"The true power of the Egyptian God?"
Yuei Vu took out a card and raised it in the direction of Osiris. The sky dragon raised its head and roared, and the golden thunder seemed to follow the guidance of the card and all gathered in the open mouth of the dragon!
"The chaotic thunder that penetrates the underworld and reality, crush everything under the guidance of God–
Thunderforce Attack!!!"
Paradox: "Is it a card with the same name as Osiris's attack move?"
"‘Thunderforce Attack' can only be activated when there is ‘Osiris the Sky Dragon' on the field." Yuei Vu shouted loudly with the roar of thunder, "All face-up monsters on the opponent's field are destroyed!
And after that, according to the number of destroyed monsters, draw the corresponding number of cards from the deck!"
"What?"
Such a powerful ability? It is worthy of being the ultimate move of the Egyptian God.
Then I obviously cannot let it activate smoothly.
"Open the set card!" Paradox flipped his backfield, "Counter Trap–
–Solemn Judgment!!!"
[Paradox, LP 2300 → LP 1150]
"When a monster would be Summoned, or a Spell/Trap Card is activated: Pay half my LP; negate the Summon or activation, then destroy that card." Paradox shouted, "I negate the activation of ‘Thunderforce Attack'!"
The almighty Solemn old man, the "Nope" declaration from God, a super counterattack that could cancel almost any action!
"Unfortunately, that won't happen." Yuei Vu said, "‘Thunderforce Attack' is God's magic. Once it is activated, it cannot be blocked or stopped in any way."
"What?"
Paradox was shocked, thinking: Damn, you are not trying to fool me, right? There is a card that even the Solemn old man can't counter?
"Thunderforce Attack's activation and effect cannot be negated. By the way, this is also a ‘condition card text'," Yuei Vu said, "so even a Spell nemesis like ‘Imperial Order' is useless."
Paradox: Is there such a thing?
God's magic could neither be negated nor revoked. The Egyptian God opened his mouth, and a mighty thunderbolt blasted across the Malefic World! The powerful Malefic Monsters were as fragile as paper in the face of this divine power, and were annihilated in just a blink of an eye!
The dust settled, and so did the victory and defeat.
Malefic's defense line was instantly destroyed in front of the Egyptian God, and the only remaining set card of Paradox was the "Spirit Barrier", which was meaningless now that there was no monster left on the field.
On the other hand, after sweeping away three Malefic Monsters, Osiris's power soared further.
"Because there are three monsters destroyed by ‘Thunderforce Attack'," Yuei Vu said, "so I draw three more cards from the deck!"
[Osiris the Sky Dragon, ATK 7000 → ATK 10000]
The last attack, with its golden light surging with lightning, instantly engulfed Paradox. He closed his eyes, as if he was satisfied.
"Is this the power of God or the power of Duel King?"
[Paradox, LP 1150 → LP 0]
