CH.136 Summoner Duel

CH.136 Summoner Duel

“I challenge you to a duel.” The whip guy said, after he had heard my name.

I honestly could go for a Yugioh duel right now, but I assume this is something else.

“What kind of duel are we talking about?” I asked.

“Are you stupid? A summoner duel.” He said back.

“Yeah, that doesn’t explain anything.” I answered.

“What kind of a summoner are you? There is no way someone as stupid as you can summon a heavenly dragon.” He said.

“Well, sorry that I don’t know the summoner educate.” I said. “I haven’t actually met another summoner before. And I didn’t even know you were a summoner.”

“What? So you are self-thought? And you can still summon dragons? That can’t be possible.” He said.

“Perhaps it is possible because I’m self thought.” I told him. Or, because my summoning is done with a unique skill, but he doesn’t need to know that.Thê source of this content n/o/v/(el)bi((n))

“If it was that easy then why do we need schools or institutes?” He asked.

“Well, it’s not like the first summoner had someone to learn from.” I said back. Can’t have a teacher if you are the first.

“Hmp. You must be all talk and no action. But I guess you will find that out soon.” He said.

“... maybe I will. But first, do you want to explain the rules of this ‘duel’ of ours?” I asked.

“Fine, I will. But it’s quite simple, so even someone uneducated like you should understand. We’ll both summon one monster and have them fight. The winner is the one whose summon can force the other to be unsummoned.” He told me.

“Oh, so a Pokemon battle. Simple enough.” I responded.

“Pokemon? What the hell is that?” He asked.

“Don’t worry about that.” I said back.

“Fine. I’ll give you a few minutes to get ready, so use that time well.” He said before walking off.

“You don’t really have to do it.” One of his team members said to me.

“Nah, it’s fine.” I said.

“Try not to kill him.” The archer girl requested.

“Yeah. I’ll try.” And if I do, I can resurrect him.

“Also, in case you want to know, Tye has two different summons, a spirit tiger and a salamander. But he will probably summon the tiger as that is the more powerful one.” The archer informed me.

“Thanks for the info. But are you sure you should be telling me that?” I asked.

“Well, he got info about you already, so I’m just making it fair.” She said.

“I see. Well, thank you.” I said before taking some distance so I could go through my collection and check what I’ll use.

Hmm. I probably shouldn’t use Blue-Eyes or Red-Eyes. They are too big and will most likely scare the horses. And they are also massively powerful, so I might cause some unintended damage if I do. And humanoid monsters are out of the question as they will cause a pile of questions.

(How about _______? It’s strong but not too large.) Laura offered.

(Yeah. Let’s do that. But I’ll need a toploader.) I said.

(On it.) Laura said.

5x Token Thanksgiving, 5x Precious Cards from Beyond, 3x Ojama Trio, Ojama Green, Archfiend Soldier, 2x Pandemonium Watchbear, 2x Mefist the Infernal General, Vilepawn Archfiend, 2x Shadowknight Archfiend, Darkbishop Archfiend, Desrook Archfiend, Infernalqueen Archfiend

(Clearing out some Archfiends I see.) I commented on Laura’s selection.

(Better that than letting Master summon them and get into trouble.) Laura said.

Blue-Eyes Toon Dragon wasn’t that large, only about 1 meter high, but it has a lot of power in a compact package.

“Hah, hah, hahahahhaa.” Tye laughed at my dragon. “That? Hahaha. That is your dragon? That’s a joke! It’s tiny! A dragon like that can do nothing.”

“Then feel free to take it down. If you manage to do that, I’ll give your gold coins back.” I taunted. I know there is basically no way he can take my Toon Dragon down. Especially as I have Toon World out.

“You make this too easy. I really should have gotten a wager from you before we began.” Tye said.

“Why not now? It’s not too late.” I said, fully showing my confidence.

“Oh. Well then, if I win I’ll have you hand over the contract with your heavenly dragon to me!” Tye demanded.

“Oh, really now?” You want my Blue-Eyes, but also laugh at it? Well, you won’t win. “I’m fine with that, as I won’t lose.”

“That confidence will cost you.” Tye said. “So, what do you want if you win?”

“Nothing. I highly doubt that you have anything I would care for. I’ll just beat you because I can and because you laughed at my dragon.” I said back.

“Arrogant fool!” Tye yelled.

“It’s not arrogance, it’s confidence.” I said back.

“Ceart! Attack that joke of a dragon!” Tye commanded his summon.

(Laura. Tell Blue-Eyes Toon Dragon it can play with the tiger in any way it wants to.) I gave my command. I didn’t want to verbally command my dragon to assert dominance.

(As you wish, Master.) Laura responded, before transmitting my order to Blue-Eyes Toon Dragon.

As the tiger attacked with its claws, my Toon Dragon just casually dodged, by bending its body in unnatural ways. That’s probably something only a Toon monster can do.

The tiger tried to attack my dragon with its claws again and again, but every time, my dragon would stretch and bend out of the way, never even counter attacking.

“STOP FOOLING AROUND! You are just making fun of me with a joke summon aren’t you!? Order that thing to attack or give up!” Tye yelled.

“... fine. I will. Blue-Eyes Toon Dragon, attack that tiger.” I ordered verbally, but added: (But don’t kill it.) through Laura.

After my order, my dragon was no longer just fooling around. It flew around the tiger at fast speeds while spitting out small balls of light from its mouth.

While some of the attacks landed in the ground around the tiger, some of them hit, causing the tiger to yelp out in pain.

“Ceart!” I heard Tye call out to his tiger, sounding genuinely worried for it.

(Laura, tell him to hold for a second.) I ordered my dragon through Laura again.

My toon immediately seized its attacks and positioned himself between the tiger and I.

“Surrender. You can’t win.” I said to Tye.

“No. I’ll never.” He said.

“Do you really think you can win? Your tiger's attacks will never hit my Toon Dragon, while my dragon can fly laps around your tiger while peppering it with attacks.” I said. “Please surrender, so I won’t have to keep this up.”

“No! I won’t!” Tye yelled. “Ceart. Attack with Spirit Cannon!”

I just looked as the tiger charged a blast of energy in its mouth, before releasing a beam towards my Toon Dragon. Perhaps tanking this hit will make him surrender.

Sadly for me, my dragon had other ideas as it bent its body and .

CRAP! The beam is now coming right at me!

I raised my arms into an X in front of my face, to protect it. I was honestly hoping Threatening Roar would activate and protect me, but as it can only stop an attack that was meant to me, before that attack even happened, I had no choice but to take this attack head on.

Just before the attack connected, with Laura’s help, I was able to bring a Monster Reborn out of my collection, into my right hand. If this kills me, at least Lua or Alice should notice it and they will hopefully use it.

With those thoughts running through my head, the beam hit me.
