Spoiler: Intimidation Roll 74+10-20(Rebel)=64 success It isn't easy to see behind the nun's carefree demeanor, but Julia can tell that she's shaking the woman. "Y-you didn't freeze her! Maybe you killed her, sure, but that just means I'll deal with you after finishing these two worms off!" Behind the bluster, the black-haired cultist is legitimately afraid for her life. Still, she doesn't give up the duel so easily.
Julia sees Adam look at her with an intensity she's never seen from him before. "Stay out of this." He growls. Looking at the nun, Adam cracks his neck. "I sacrifice a Kuriboh from my hand." Julia and Yumi get a glimpse of a little furball before it explodes. "I then banish Breaker and Kuriboh from my graveyard, and summon Chaos Sorcerer!" Spoiler: Chaos Sorcerer "I banish Giant Rex!" He calls out, and the sorcerer begins chanting an unsettling spell.
"Nnnnh!" Felicia winces from the pain as her monsters are destroyed, and her life points is reduced. Khh, another Goyo? She hissed, "So you have a thing about stealing things you destroy, huh?" The red-head, "But unfortunately for you, my monsters have perfect unity with each other!" She declares just as the nun ends her turn, ignoring the comment about a being a whore. At least she's moved Michio aside, now it's only a question of if she can move away. Felicia thinks to herself, hoping maybe that freezing thing needed the cultist's full attention. Then as her turn starts, "Draw." She grins, "I activate pot of greed, allowing me to draw two cards." She declares, as she gains a few more things to work with. "Now, I normal summon another Inzektor Dragonfly to the field. Using his effect to equip Hornet from the graveyard, I then use Hornet's effect to destroy your face down card!" Felicia made her move, trying to play it safe for now and see what the nun had face down.
The white fabric of Jessica's underwear is smooth and damp to the touch, revealing a neatly trimmed bush underneath. Her grey eyes dart between Tenma's pulsing member and the boy's own eyes. "Can you...lift my legs up?" She takes his cock in her hand, guiding it to her entrance in preparation.
[So, using Kuriboh to prevent damage from the Giant Rex, then on Adam's turn he summons Chaos Sorcerer. Cool cool. That means Mirror Force and Counter Counter are on his side of the field still too, and Dark Magician is the only card left in his hand until he draws next turn.] The wicked mage's incantation ends with the dark abyss swallowing the nun's dinosaur before Adam ends his turn. "My turn. Draw." The woman looks down at her cards in concentration. "I play the Field Spell Jurassic World." The surroundings change from a dark study with twisting tendrils of shadow to a prehistoric jungle, vibrant and colorful. Spoiler: Jurassic World "Now, I summon Black Veloci! He'll attack your Sorcerer, and destroy it since it's Attack is 2500 after applying the raptor's own effect too." Spoiler: Black Veloci The wild creature charges Chaos Sorcerer, but Adam activates Mirror Force, destroying the dinosaur before it can attack. The nun ends her turn, passing initiative to Adam once more. Spoiler: Section 3 Roll Adam 84=84 good Nun 48-10(Intimidated by Julia)=38 poor
Julia was a little stunned, but not too surprised at his insistence to handle this all by himself. She already assumed that while she didn't know exactly what, the risk of directly interfering with shadows games was probably bad. Mostly she just observed, trying to see if she could discern something useful from seeing the games in practice about the nature of them. The best way to deal with these things would be by understanding exactly what they were, after all. Her face only returned to a smile, despite her initial concern at seeing Adam regain more control of the situation and recover from his somewhat weak beginning.
The nun stomps her foot in anger, coming concerningly close to smashing Michio's ankle. The face down card is revealed as Battleguard Howling before Hornet evaporates the now-useless trap. Spoiler: Battleguard Howling Felicia's turn continues...
Spoiler: Magical Resonance Roll 41+10(Sorceress)-10(difficulty)=41 weak fail The nature of the shadow game remains opaque. Though Julia is stronger than most others in her realm, considering the rarity of magical ability, she is far from able to understand the mechanisms which fuel such ancient, powerful spells. However, she can glean one thing. The victor will be able to do practically whatever they wish with the defeated duelist. Yumi saunters from her place standing near Adam to join the other professor. "Did you actually kill one of them?" She whispers.
[I assume he has to make another sacrifice to summon Dark Magician?] "Forgot about my face down cards, eh?" Adam gloats, grinning at his opponent. "I wonder what you'll sound like when they tear out your soul? You know that you can survive if you forfeit, right? Of course, then I own you..." He taunts, hoping to provoke his oppenent into a poorly thought out move, or even browbeat her into surrender. His turn is unusually simple - he plays a pot of greed to draw 2 cards, preparing to use Effect Veiler during his opponent's next turn in case she summons a monster with a powerful effect. Spoiler: Effect Veiler "I then attack, with Chaos Sorcerer."
(Welp, I wanted to summon the Earthbound Immortal Uru, buuut, seems like she has enough to end the duel right here.) "Now I activate Dragonfly's effect, allowing me to summon another Inzektor from my deck, to my field." Felicia grins, summoning another Centipede for her side. "Now I activate Centipede's effect, equipping Hornet to him. Then I activate Hornet's effect to destroy your Goyo Predator!" Felicia declared, "Then Centipede's second effect activates, allowing me to pick another Inzektor monster from my deck, and add it to my hand." The red-head smirks, her play continuing as she activates a spell card, "I use Zektrike Kou-Ou, sending the Inzektor Earwig I just got to the graveyard, in return for equipping the Inzektor Hornet in my deck to my Dragonfly!" Felicia glares at the nun, knowing the cultist knew what's going to happen next. Spoiler: Zektrike Kou-Ou Spoiler: Inzektor Earwig "Now I use Hornet's effect, destroying the Centipede you stole, leaving you with no monsters left!" Felicia exclaimed, rubbing in how the duel's about to finish. "Now I summon another Giga-Mantis from my deck to my field, thanks to Dragonfly's second effect." Felicia then switches to the battle phase, "This is the end, you skank!" She taunts as she lets her monsters attack directly, knowing they had enough combined attack points to end the shadow duel.
"She's breathing." Julia was quick to reassure her. "I didn't even duel. All I did was drug her and steal her deck." Julia said in a very low whisper, but the nun looked too worked up to really notice what they're talking about. "But I don't see any reason to tell her that."
[He would have to tribute a monster on the field, yes. There are cards which allow you to bypass that requirement, such as Mausoleum of the Emperor.] Not wanting to take a direct blow from the powerful caster, the nun activates her face down card in response to the attack. "I'll use Compulsory Evacuation Device, sending your Chaos Sorcerer back to your hand!" Spoiler: Compulsory Evacuation Device Frustratingly, Counter Counter doesn't work against Compulsory since the latter card isn't a Counter trap. [Anything else Adam wants to do before ending his turn? He doesn't have to do anything, I'm just checking.]
[Well done adapting so easily to the new deck.] The combined assault easily cuts the nun down to size. Soundly beaten, she lies motionless on the floor, though still breathing, before the Inzektors. An ominous voice echoes in the darkness. "Victor, the defeated duelist is yours to do with as you will." Though it speaks in ancient Egyptian, Felicia is somehow able to understand it. Michio gasps and coughs as the magic which held her releases it's grasp. The shadows do not fade yet, awaiting for Felicia to claim her winnings.
"I'm uncertain if I should be relieved or distressed at her still drawing breath, considering what they've done." There is no shortage of hatred in Yumi's voice. "You will have to teach me...magic. I must be able to protect my flock from people such as this."
Adam lays Magic Cylinder face down Spoiler: Magic Cylinder And summons Witch of the Black Forest in Defence Mode Spoiler: Witch of the Black Forest ]
(Thanks, it was all thanks to the Wiki.) "Haa." Felicia lets out a sigh as the duel ends, only for another strange voice to call to her. "H-huh? What? To do with as I... please?" She repeated, recalling what the nun wanted to do to her earlier. "A-aaah, n-no, I want none of that! But... I guess, we could use her help to find out what's going on here." She mumbled, shaking her head, basically implying how she wants to turn the defeated cultist into a loysl helper. Then as Michio finally moved, Felicia runs to her, despite groaning from the pain she experience due to being attacked. "Hey, are you alright?" She asked, offering a hand to her companion.
[Adam should only have 4 cards in hand, and two of them have to be Dark Magician and Chaos Sorcerer, so I'll just say that he had Witch of the Black Forest instead of Effect Veiler in his hand. You're doing well!] The turn passes to the nun. "I draw!" Fear begins to grip her as she looks between Adam, Julia, and her cards. "I'll summon Destroyersaurus and use him to attack your set monster." Spoiler: Destroyersaurus As the new dinosaur charges at the face down caster, Adam is faced with another choice. Does Adam want to allow the attack to occur, destroying Witch of the Black Forest and triggering her effect, or does Adam want to use Magic Cylinder? Either way, the nun will likely react to whatever Adam decides during her second main phase.
“She was cute, but can’t say I can get into it when it involves the risk of melting off my face.” Julia seemed in good cheer about the whole ordeal. Since she got here, she hasn’t stopped having fun. Perhaps too much. “I’ll….see what I can do? I didn’t get where I am, overnight. Adam has a lot of potential and a natural attunement, but even that comes and goes. Even then, the only reason he is as developed as far along as he is comes from the fact he had years of training building up to it even if he didn’t know it. Though….the one thing you got going for you with me as a teacher, is that you can blow past my old mistakes and pick it up at a lot faster than starting from scratch.” Julia gave a concise point of what it takes to develop these skills, but got the sense Yumi wouldn’t be dissuaded. “I’ll try.”
Spoiler: Commune Roll 64=64 success The raspy voice from before the duel again whispers to Felicia. Take her...Breed her...Make her yours...Do this...and I will grant...you power... The shadows wait for the victor to shout an explicit, clear command. Michio takes the proffered hand, staggering to her feet with Felicia's assistance. "Yeah....Was that more magic bullshit?" She looks down at herself. "And why the hell are my tits out?!" She fixes her top, though too late to avoid flashing the other girl.
Adam lets the attack happen, groaning in pain as his witch is destroyed. "Merde!" He grumbles. "How the hell are you still drawing strong cards! This cannot be happening..." He uses his poker face, trying to bait the nun into a reckless attack as the Witch's effect causes him to play a face down monster that she knows can't have more than 1500 defence - not possibly enough to deal with her current monster. He feigns distress, as he plays Blast Sphere, intending to detonate it when she attacks. Spoiler: Blast Sphere
