Chapter 1318: The Descend of Aesir
"I Normal Summon the Tuner Monster ‘Guldfaxe of the Nordic Beasts'!"
It was a dark horse with a golden mane and tail.
[Guldfaxe of the Nordic Beasts, ATK 1600]
"Tuner Monster…" Jack said in a deep voice, "Is it coming?"
"Level 4 Tuner Monster ‘Guldfaxe of the Nordic Beasts'!
Two Level 3 ‘Nordic Beast Tokens'!
Tuning!
[4+3+3=10]
Level 10 Synchro!
"When the door to the world opens, the ancient war god will raise up his Magical Hammer! Shake the earth and appear with the roaring thunder!" Harald shouted loudly, "Synchro Summon! The god of thunder, the son of Odin————Thor, Lord of the Aesir!!!"
The sky was split by thunder, and lightning exploded on the earth! The burly giant descended from the sky, like a mountain that stood tall. His eyes radiated golden light, and lightning overflowed from the corners of his eyes, holding a huge magic hammer, and his huge body seemed to contain endless divine power.
That was the god of thunder, the god of battle who was known to have the ultimate strength among the Norse gods!
[Thor, Lord of the Aesir, ATK 3500]
Yuei Vu narrowed his eyes: "God…?"
Unlike the castrated real-life version, the three Aesirs in the animation were real gods.
In the entire Yu-Gi-Oh real card pool, there were only three Egyptian Gods and one Creator God in the category of "DIVINE monsters". There was no other monster with the DIVINE attribute in the huge card pool of tens of thousands of cards.
"The Three Polar Gods of the Star World" in the original work were also DIVINE Divine-Beast monsters. This Type and Attribute alone were enough to prove their superior status as orthodox gods, not just powerful monster spirits with outstanding strength.
But Yuei Vu was still a little surprised.
"Thor, Lord of the Aesir… I remember this thing is your teammate Dragan's card, right?" Yuei Vu said, "After joining the world of darkness, do you feel that teammates are no longer needed?" 𝔯
"That's right." Harald smiled, "I have accepted my true self. In the world of Darkness, teammates are redundant.
I only need one person to control the power of the three Aesirs! This is my full potential, and it was Nightshroud that helped me realize this!"
Harald raised his arm high.
"Thor, Lord of the Aesir's effect is activated! Once per turn, until the end of the turn, negate the effect of a monster on the opponent's field, and Thor gains all the effects of that monster!" (animation effect)
He pointed to Yuei Vu's field.
"Use that legendary strongest warrior's ability for me!" Harald shouted, "I negate the effect of ‘Black Luster Soldier' and gain that power!"
Thor raised his huge finger and pointed it straight to the sky. A beam of lightning pierced the sky from his fingertips, and the thunder immediately fell on the Black Luster Soldier, as if draining all his strength!
"Heh, let me use that ability right away." Harald sneered, "Thor, Lord of the Aesir, use the power of the ‘Black Luster Soldier' you have obtained! Once per turn, I can banish a monster on the opponent's field!
I remove the ‘Black Luster Soldier' from the game!"
Thor, Lord of the Aesir swung his huge magic hammer, and the Black Luster Soldier's power was perfectly reproduced. The radiated thunder seemed to have transformed into the appearance of "Dark Dimension Slash", splitting the space with one blow and twisting the Black Luster Soldier into the depths of the vortex of the dimension!
"The effect of seizing the opponent's ability?" Jack said.
"The same type of effect as the ‘Majestic Star Dragon'." Yusei said, "The Aesir indeed has extraordinary power."
"It's too early to be surprised now."
Harald curled the corners of his mouth and showed a contemptuous smile.
"I told you, right? I am in my best condition ever. Even if my opponent is the legendary strongest Duel King, I will not give him any chance!
I will then activate the Spell Card ‘Monster Reborn' from my hand!
Revive the ‘Mara of the Nordic Alfar' that was discarded to the graveyard at the beginning of this turn!"
[Mara of the Nordic Alfar, ATK 1000]
Mara, the "dark elf" in mythology. It was short and has blood-red eyes. In mythology, it was a goblin.
"Mara of the Nordic Alfar's effect – When using this card as Synchro Material, the other Synchro Materials must be 2 ‘Nordic' monsters in my hand."
Harald showed the two cards in his hand at once.
"Level 2 Tuner Monster ‘Mara of the Nordic Alfar' on the field!
Level 4 ‘Tyr of the Nordic Champions' and Level 4 ‘Ljosalf of the Nordic Alfar' in the hand!
Tuning!"
[2+4+4=10]
"Whimsical god born from the stars, show us your absolute power and laugh at the world!"
Harald raised his hand again and pointed to the sky.
"Synchro Summon! Descend here——
——Loki, Lord of the Aesir!!!"
The gloomy black clouds were closed, and a crack was torn in the sky. A huge palm stretched out from the crack, and the huge god emerged from the void space behind the dimensional crack like a magic trick.
It was a god wearing a top hat and dressed like a magician, with red eyes, green skin, a long and pointed nose, and a cynical sneer at the corner of his mouth.
[Loki, Lord of the Aesir, ATK 3300]
Two Aesirs at once!
"Summoned two Aesirs in one turn?" Jack was a little surprised.
"This man named Harald is indeed not an ordinary duelist." Yusei also confirmed.
Kaiba snorted, which meant that he was just so-so.
"Battle!" Harald shouted, "First, ‘Loki, Lord of the Aesir', attack directly!"
Loki laughed strangely and raised his hand to make a pistol gesture. Some powerful dark matter quickly gathered on his outstretched index finger, and rolled with dark lightning, like a bullet that broke through the dimension.
"At this moment, Loki's effect is activated." Harald chuckled, "When this card declares an attack, I can destroy a card in the opponent's Spell & Trap Card Zone.
If it is activated, I can negate that card's activation and effect!" (Animation effect)
"Loki's ability is to destroy the backfield?" Yusei said.
Harald said: "I want to destroy the set card on the left side of your backfield!"
The set card was turned over and twisted and torn apart by Loki's strange divine power. But before it broke, everyone saw clearly that the card was the trap card "Drowning Mirror Force".
A powerful trap that could bounce all attacking monsters on the opponent's field back to the deck.
Unfortunately, it was meaningless in front of Loki's power.
"Oh, what a pity, if I hadn't summoned the second Aesir in one turn and only used Thor to fight, you might have succeeded."
Harald laughed.
"But now that the second Aesir has appeared, you don't have any chance!
Continue the attack! Loki, direct attack!
Vanity Bullet!"
