The Villain Only Wants To Live a Buddhist Life

Chapter 178: Dark Demon Unexpected



[Preparation Phase][30s]

Once the dueler stands on the player's platform, they have to get used to switching states at the moment when the countdown starts.

Although Dark was not a formal dueler yet, he already had a lot of experience in this regard.

He had more control over his own emotions than most people.

"Draw card!"

Five to start!

The moment his fingertips touched the magic card, he could feel a trace of coldness.

In the blink of an eye, there were five magic cards in his hand.

[Phantom Magic Beast: Eevee]

[Lust III]

[Sylveon]

[Gatomon]

[Shuckle]

"With those five cards drawn, I have [Pride Ⅰ] and [Trash Slime] left in the deck!"

As soon as Dark thought of this, he had a plan.

With these five cards in his hand, the safest way was undoubtedly to summon [Shuckle] first.

If Sara had [Sphynx Cat] in her hand, she would definitely begin by summoning [Sphynx Cat] at the start.

Then he could only summon [Phantom Magic Beast: Eevee].

In order to prevent [Phantom Magic Beast: Eevee] from being instantly killed, he could only activate [Lust Ⅲ] as soon as possible to make it evolve.

However, without [Pride I], he might not be able to control Umbreon, which would be very dangerous.

But what if he could take advantage of Sara's tactics...

Counting the magical spirits that Sara possessed, except for the 2-star [Anubis], there was almost no magical spirit of the offensive type.

In addition, Dark's own summoning was much faster than her...

Alas, (uдu〃).

Sometimes having too many choices could be an annoyance.

...

[Battle Phase][30s]

"Tick!"

Dark immediately took out [Phantom Magic Beast: Eevee] and summoned it at the fastest speed!

By summoning the one star Phantom Magic Beast Eevee, Dark revealed the confidence he had in his own summoning speed.

It was also because the opponent's summoning speed could not match him.

Eevee-chan landed right above the Magic Ball and pressed it to the ground!

Then, it rolled the ball to the corner of the arena.

Since "unintentionally leaving the field" would not be considered giving up, the corner of the field was actually an excellent position for defense.

But before it succeeded, Sara had already summoned her first magical spirit and it really was [Sphynx Cat]!

Dark smiled and immediately drew out the second magic card——[Lust Ⅲ]!

At this point, his Normal Summoning Spell CD had ended, and it would only take 3.8 seconds to complete the next summon!

"That's enough, Eevee."

Before Dark finished speaking, Eevee-chan actually put down the Magic Ball and ran towards the opposite side with her short legs.

...

"This is……"

Sara wasn't surprised by Eevee's "suicidal" behavior.

Dark had already performed the evolution of Eevee in the last match, proving her the potential of this Phantom Magic Beast!

"Does he want to use that enhancement card?"

After a little thought, Sara commanded: "Sphynx Cat, lock it!"

Although she commanded Sphynx Cat to lock Eevee, as long as Eevee was not "strengthened", she would not hesitate to instruct Sphynx Cat to tear it apart!

When the hairless black cat heard the order, it acted immediately.

It was much faster than the Eevee, but it would still take time to accelerate.

And this time duration was enough for Dark to complete [Lust III]'s activation!

The sudden burst of pink brilliance blurred Sphynx Cat's mind for a moment. When it recovered, the little Eevee had already evolved into the evil and charming Umbreon!

Different from the yellow pattern of the ordinary Umbreon, Umbreon, which had completed its evolution with the help of [Lust Ⅲ], had a hint of pink, whether it was in the ring pattern or the faint halo emanating from its body.

After sniffing around slightly, it turned around, facing Dark on the player's platform.

"Mee~♥!" It called out softly.

After that, the affection in its eyes could not be stopped.

So much so that the approach of Sphynx Cat was completely ignored.

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

There was a hint of joy on the faces of both players.

Sphynx Cat slammed its front paws on Umbreon's shadow and Shadow Tag was activated!

The power of the dark shadow climbed up Umbreon's body and completely locked it!

"Tricking Sara to use Sphynx Cat's Shadow Tag on the uncontrolled Umbreon" was not a disadvantage in Dark's tactics.

But what happened next was beyond Dark's expectations!

He originally planned to let Umbreon take the Shadow Tag. With the power of Umbreon far surpassing Shuckle, it would definitely be able to break free in a shorter time, and then he could use the [Pride Ⅰ] drawn in the next round to bring Umbreon that would have broken free from Shadow Tag under control.

During this period, he would summon the next magical spirit faster than Sara, which would be [Shuckle]!

By relying on the trick to guard Magic Ball in the corner, even [Shuckle] could protect Magic Ball for a certain period of time.

As for Sara, with her summoning speed, only two magical spirits could be summoned by her in the first round.

In addition to [Sphynx Cat], there was only one left.

But Sara didn't have a 3-star offensive magical spirit like [Bear Spirit] or [Golden Beast].

No matter what was summoned, [Shuckle] had plenty of room to spare.

He just needed to wait for the start of the second round, summon [Trash Slime], and then perform sacrifice summoning.

At that time, with two four-star magical spirits, one defensive and one offensive, he could just smash the blue player's Magic Ball while trying to avoid the killings of her magical spirits, and there would be no doubt that he would win.

...

But the reality was.

After Umbreon was bound by the "Shadow Tag", its expression froze, and then it turned its eyes to glare at the Sphynx Cat.

"Hiss!" The sphinx hissed, resisting Umbreon's glare.

In the next moment, Umbreon's body burst out with an extremely terrifying evil aura!

Sphynx Cat was immediately affected by this aura, its hair stood on end in an instant, filled with fear and panic.

But even if this was the case, Sphynx Cat still would not deactivate "Shadow Tag".

After realising that its struggle was to no avail, Umbreon tried to release "Dark Pulse" immediately.

However, just as the evil aura began to spread, it was suddenly suppressed.

Obviously, such skills could not be used under the "Shadow Tag" state.

But as Umbreon forcefully opened its mouth, another ultimate - "Shadow Ball", actually slowly gathered in its mouth!

What was even more shocking was that the shadow energy from Shadow Tag that bound Umbreon's body was also gathering in its mouth!

Umbreon was actually absorbing the energy of "Shadow Tag" and transforming it into "Shadow Ball"!

When the Shadow Ball got bigger and bigger, the shadow energy on it was also thinned to the limit.

The Sphynx Cat was gritting its teeth, desperately trying to resist it, but its magic energy was rapidly depleting; its power output could not even match the absorption rate of the "Shadow Ball"!

"Boom!"

All of a sudden, Umbreon, actually shattered Shadow Tag's restraint.

It held its head high, overlooking the sluggish Sphynx Cat, the "Shadow Ball" in its mouth suddenly shot out!

"Boom!"

The blast of air blew up the dust from the ground.

Sphynx Cat turned into bits and pieces in the dust.

...

And on the field at this moment, there was no magical spirit that could stop Umbreon's advances!

This scene was not only beyond Dark's expectations, it was also beyond the expectation of anyone at the scene.

Dark just instinctively started summoning [Shuckle] after Normal Summoning Spell's cooldown was over.

But the slight distraction still slowed him down a little.

...

"Yeah!"

The Noble House students outside the field couldn't help cheered loudly.

If Umbreon took this opportunity to attack the Blue Magic Ball, this match would be over in no time!

If……

Perhaps……

It would really be over.

But there were "ifs' in the dueling arena.

Umbreon quickly calmed down after eliminating the abominable obstacle. It licked its paws, washed its face and then trotted toward the red player's platform with brisk steps.

It looked very happy.

Even if Dark summoned [Shuckle] on the field, it still failed to attract its attention.

...

On the blue player's platform.

Although Sara looked confused, she also took the opportunity to summon her second magical spirit——[Dead Mummy]!

This opportunity made her heart, which had almost jumped out just now, come back into her body.

The duel was not over yet.

It was not the time to give up!

Dead Mummy immediately stuffed the Magic Ball into its belly with a bandage after it appeared.

"Tick!"

The first round was over.

The second round started immediately.

Players on both sides began to draw cards.

Umbreon left the field intentionally so it was regarded as "giving up the fight".

By the time Dark summoned [Trash Slime] on Shuckle's carapace, Umbreon had already climbed onto the platform, rubbing its face against his leg.

Feeling the soft and fluffy touch on his leg, Dark's face was indifferent. He was waiting for the summoning cooldown to end and complete the sacrifice summoning.

Everyone in the audience was confused.

The professors on the other hand seemed to have figured out something.

If the cleverness displayed by Dark's magical spirits in previous battles could be explained by "tacit understanding", then Umbreon this time had undoubtedly shown a much higher IQ than normal magical spirits!

This was very incredible in the eyes of most magisters.

"Claire, did you teach him anything?" Professor Silver couldn't help asking.

Claire shrugged. "I did teach him something, but not this."

...

The duel was still going on.

Sara glanced at the other side, but didn't have time to think too much.

She immediately summoned [Living Mummy] and ordered it to use "Shadow Resurrection" to resurrect [Sphynx Cat]!

"As long as Sphynx Cat is resurrected, even if the Dark succeeded in performing sacrifice summoning, it wouldn't be a problem."

"This time, it won't be countered again, will it?"
