Chapter 1188: Black Rose

"Is this... psychic power?"

Yusei, who had personally experienced the power of the Shadow Game, was mentally prepared for this kind of supernatural card game, and Izayoi's psychic power did not catch him off guard.

If he must say his opinion, this power was actually not as damaging as the Shadow Game.

After all, no matter how strong the mental power was, psychic power was just physical damage. Aki could make the monsters she summoned materialize and cause damage, while the Shadow Game was more focused on the spirit levels in addition to the physical body.

In comparison, pure physical damage was not that unbearable.

Aki took the initiative to destroy the Phoenixian Cluster Amaryllis to avoid the effect of the Junk Archer, but this made her defenseless, and she had to face the next shot of the Archer directly.

Yusei was naturally not polite: "Junk Archer, attack directly!"

Junk Archer drew his bow and arrow, this time directly locking onto the girl with a cold poker face on the opposite side, the arrow flashing with a cold light.

Aki calmly pressed a button on her Duel Disk.

"Open the set card: Continuous Trap – Cursed Ivy!" She said, "Select and Special Summon 1 ‘Ivy' monster from my Graveyard in face-up Defense Position and equip it with this card." (Animation card)

A card popped out from her graveyard area and was pinched out by two slender white fingers exposed from her gloves.

"I special summoned ‘Wall of Ivy'!"

A new monster came to her field, and its appearance was a tangled ivy clinging to a white stone wall. The top of the stone wall was covered with lush green vegetation.

[Wall of Ivy, DEF 1200]

"Then the Junk Archer continues to attack." Yusei said, "Attack the Wall of Ivy!"

The arrows continued to shoot, like blue meteors piercing the stone wall clinging to the ivy, which broke and exploded on the spot.

"Then at this moment, the effect of Wall of Ivy is activated." Izayoi Aki said, "When the Wall of Ivy becomes the target of attack, Special Summon an ‘Ivy Token' in Defense Position on the opponent's field." (Animation effect)

The small vegetation popped out onto Yusei's field and occupied an empty monster space.

"When an Ivy Token is destroyed, its controller must take 300 points of damage." Izayoi Aki said coldly, "Also, when the equipped monster of the Continuous Trap ‘Cursed Ivy' is destroyed, this card must also be destroyed."

With a crisp sound, the trap card in her backfield also exploded into countless golden fragments.

"At this moment, the second effect of ‘Cursed Ivy' is also activated. When this card is sent to the graveyard, Special Summon two ‘Ivy Tokens' in Defense Position on the opponent's field."

[Rose Fairy, ATK 800]

"The effect of Witch of the Black Rose not only draws a monster card, but also a monster that can be special summoned by triggering the effect." Yuei Vu muttered on the side.

With such a great skill in divine drawing, Izayoi, do you still say you are not the heroine?

"She is indeed a true duelist." Brother Crabhead expressed his approval with a serious face.

It is well known that "being able to draw the card you want = a true duelist".

"Level 4, Tuner monster ‘Witch of the Black Rose'! Level 3, ‘Rose Fairy'! Tuning!"

The Witch of the Black Rose waved her wand, and the trajectory of the wand waving turned into starlight. The shining stars lined up in a straight line, summoning the Rose Dragon, the witch's symbol!

[4+3=7]

"Chilling flames engulf the entire world. Pitch-dark flower, set into bloom! Synchro Summon!"

Izayoi Aki raised her hands.

"Appear——

——Black Rose Dragon!!!"

The rose-like dragon's entire body seemed to be wrapped in countless petals. It was noble and beautiful, but it also brought a destructive storm. The turbulent airflow was like countless thorns covered with spikes, lashing and smashing everything it touched.

[Black Rose Dragon, ATK 2400]

The moment the dragon appeared, Yusei felt the pain intensified.

It was like countless sharp needles pricking the nerves, and the burning sensation was like a branding iron being pressed on the arm. The light of the mark flickered.

That was Izayoi's trump card, her Signer Dragon.

But it was not just that.

At the same time, this dragon was still a symbol of destruction and death in the eyes of the world today. Wherever it appeared, there were ruins and broken walls.

It was the symbol of the witch.
