Author's Note: It's been quite some time, but I'm back at last with a new chapter!
Chapter Twelve: VS The Dark Prince; Demon Leeching!
The image of a student on the big screen darkened, indicating that he had been defeated. With that duel finished, the duel review was finally completed. All of the students relaxed, glad that they wouldn't have to continue and would get to relax for the rest of the day.
Shiro hopped up from his seat and started stretching immediately, looking bright and cheery in comparison to how he was in his own duel. "Glad to see that over. Most of those duels were boring! I mean, what's the point of a duel unless its exciting and fun to watch or be in?"
Kane looked at his roommate out of the corner of his eyes, frowning as he did so. "You know, some people duel for things other than fun. A lot of people duel for very serious reasons. Haven't you studied history?"
"Nah, that was ages ago. I like to live in the present, not dwell in the past. And like I said, the past is the duel review. So now, party party party!" He threw his hands up, looking overjoyed. Until he was punched on the top of the head by Janice.
"Shut up idiot, the day isn't over yet. The duel review is done, but there are a couple of things left to be done. For instance, the top scoring duelists of Osiris Red and Ra Yellow get to face someone from an upper dorm, and if they win they move up. So there are a few duels left." Shiro rubbed his head, groaning about 'violent women'.
The lights above the stadium came down to focus on one man standing in the center of the dueling ring. He wore Obelisk Blue clothes that were modeled to make him look almost like a general, with large shoulder pads sticking out. "Ah, students I know you were all looking forward to this. The time when our top scoring students get to face against their peers in the dueling ring to see if they deserve the right to move ahead! Osiris Red to Ra Yellow, and Ra Yellow to Obelisk Blue!"
Despite his enthusiasm all he got was silence from the gathered students. He coughed, disappointed by the reaction. "Well, I'm here to announce that we'll be kicking off the next six duels, three from each of the two lower dorms, with the top scoring student of all freshmen and the top scoring student of today's duel review. Miss Mizuki Mitsuhiro!"
A spotlight came up on Mizuki who was sitting amongst her friends, and she stood up, looking completely shocked. The others clapped her on the back, but their words were drowned out by the thunderous applause of the student body. "MIZUKI!"
She blushed brightly when a series of banners came up on the other side of the room, that boldly declared "We Love You Mizuki!". When the students quieted down a little, the Obelisk Blue dorm head spoke up again. "Our randomizer has selected her opponent, and this one is going to be a doozy folks! Today we've seen this little rising star face off against one of Obelisk Blue's former top duelists. And now…her opponent is one of the current top duelists of Obelisk Blue!"
A second spotlight came up, this one focusing on a tall and thin Obelisk Blue standing at the front row, hands against the railings. Clad in the white and blue uniform with a small blue mantle cape over his shoulders, the bespectacled duelist smirked confidently and adjusted his glasses. "The third ranked duelist of our entire school, Duelist Academy's very own Dark Prince, Harrison Wilhelm the Third!"
Mizuki felt her blood run cold as Harrison lifted his head up, his eyes glinting darkly behind those glasses. Her heart started pounding in her chest, and she realized that she was afraid. 'So what if he's the number three? I swore I'd beat him, and I can't back down now! I'll beat him and move on to Obelisk Blue!'
Harrison continued to stare up at her, his smirk never leaving his face. 'Come and face me Mizuki Mitsuhiro. This is a challenge I will relish, crushing you into the ground. You'll learn your place, and understand that you belong in Obelisk Blue. Pity I can't let you join the dorm.'
He hopped over the railing, and marched up onto the dueling ring, his DD6 already unfolding. It lit up, and five cards slid out of it and into his hand. "Mizuki Mitsuhiro, come and face me! Come and witness my myriad of godlike feats!" (HLP: 4000)
Taking a deep breath to calm herself, Mizuki finally started walking down to the stadium. Her friends patted her on the back consolingly this time, giving her their best wishes. Kane placed a hand on her shoulder and smiled brightly at her. "Kick his ass, okay?"
She nodded, unable to get out anything coherent. She didn't want to admit it, but she was dreadfully afraid of facing a duelist like Harrison. After losing so badly to Vlad, she had no idea how she'd manage to beat somebody on the same level. Shiro saw the way she looked, and looked her straight in the eye and grinned from ear to ear. "Yeah, whatever happens just…have fun."
Hearing that perked her up a little and she nodded again, this time with a little bit more enthusiasm. Turning away she started walking again, this time with more determination in her step. 'He's right, I just have to relax and let this play out like a normal duel. Sure he's good, but he's not unstoppable.'
'Just keep saying it. He's not unstoppable, he's not unstoppable. He's just vicious, calculating, and very talented. And unrelenting. And brutal. And…I really need to stop thinking of adjectives. Let's just review, his dueling isn't that fantastic, is it?'
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Harrison looked at his drawn card out of the corner of his eye, and then looked back up at Kane. "Weakling, I'll crush you completely right now. Then you'll understand what it means to talk about things you know nothing about, particularly my family!"
Shiro could have sworn he saw the card that Kane had just drawn pulse with energy, but shook it off as his imagination. "Harrison's about to show just how strong he really is."
The Osiris Red teen yelped and jumped a foot in the air. He landed facing the speaker, who turned out to be none other than Mizuki. "When did you get here, and how did you just appear like that?"
She looked at him like he was stupid, which he was starting to get used to. "I walked. You know, with my legs, which are generally used for walking. How else would I have gotten here?"
"But…but…you….oh screw it! I'll just stand here and watch the rest of the duel."
Harrison looked absolutely merciless as he slapped his drawn card onto his duel disk. "This monster, he'll crush you! Legendary Demon Slayer Dante(1500/1200), come to me!"
Dropping down from the sky was a white haired man in a trench coat, guns holstered at his hips. He raised his head and smirked at Kane. "When Dante is summoned I may take one equip card from my deck and attach it to him!"
A card ejected from his deck, and he immediately slipped it into the magic/trap zone behind Dante. "His appropriate weapons, Twin Pistols: Ebony and Ivory!"
Dante reached down to the holsters at his hip and whipped out the two pistols, one black and one white. He leveled them at Kane, who gulped and took a step back. "Ebony and Ivory increase Dante's attack power by three hundred."
The demon slayer's attack score rose to eighteen hundred, but Kane still looked to his set card for support. "I'll be sending your life points deep into the negatives in about ten seconds. Hunter of Shadows, direct attack!"
"Activate trap, Waboku!" The trap card began to lift itself up, but was halted as Harrison's own set card lifted, and purple smoke shot out of it. The Waboku trap was consumed by the smoke and broke apart.
"Trap Jammer negates it! Hunter of Shadows, complete your attack!" Kane groaned as a crossbow bolt hit him in the shoulder, forcing him to step backwards on his left leg. (KLP: 0)
Shiro frowned, not quite sure he understood what was going on. "If he had it that easy, then why go to the trouble of summoning Dante in the first place?"
Mizuki gasped, realizing what was about to happen. "He's…he's not finished!"
Harrison's icy smile turned feral as he pointed one finger at the beaten Kane. "I told you I'd punish you. Dante, attack him directly!" Kane cried out as a barrage of bullets slammed into his weakened body, knocking him off his feet. (KLP: 0)
"Ebony and Ivory gives Dante the ability to attack twice in the battle phase! Dante, attack him again!" Dante stepped up right in front of Kane, both of his pistols leveled at point blank range at Kane's face. Even for a hologram that only faked pain through stimulators, a point blank double gun blast would be hell.
Before Mizuki or Shiro could make a protest, Dante pulled both triggers, and the sound of gunfire echoed through their part of the island. The demon slayer spun his guns in his hands and then holstered them, just before fading away. "That will teach you a lesson. Never talk about my family, ever, or the punishment will be great." (KLP: 0)

She shivered at the memory, rubbing her hands against her bare arms to give herself warmth. 'Okay, so he is good. And he's got nothing against being a tad brutal to get his point across. Or rather, really brutal.'
Her duel against Ensui had been her hardest so far at Duelist Academy, even tougher than her duel against Vlad. Then she had been beaten fairly completely, so she hadn't gotten to struggle much. But against Ensui she had worked her hardest to win, and succeeded. 'And beating a guy like Ensui makes me worthy of Harrison's notice? Does that mean before that I couldn't even be considered worth his time? Just how strong is he really?'
Mizuki knew that Harrison hadn't used anywhere near his full skills to defeat Kane. Kane was fairly good as a duelist, just good enough to get into Duelist Academy. But against someone like Harrison, who had been the first in his grade at the Duel Prep School and a first semester Obelisk Blue that skill was like nothing. Mizuki was better than Kane, but could she stand up to Harrison. 'Just stay calm and have fun, you can do this!'
Without noticing it she had made it to the bottom of the stadium and was now standing at the steps up to the dueling ring. Up there Harrison was awaiting her, most likely with that cocky smirk on his face. 'I'll wipe that smirk off his face, everybody just watch!'
Taking the steps one at a time was enough to give her a dramatic air, and soon she stood in the designated position, across from Harrison. The Obelisk Blue smirked and adjusted his glasses with one finger. "Oh, you've actually come? Be sure not to be a disgrace to this school as we duel each other, or else you'll be punished."
Mizuki grimaced and slammed her dueling deck into her duel disk, which powered up and move into position. "Shut up and let's duel! I've come this far and I've got no intention of backing down now!" (MLP: 4000)
Harrison sneered, and lifted up his hand of cards, then pointed at her with the other hand. "You've got the potential to be strong Mizuki Mitsuhiro! But you can never achieve that power unless you understand your weakness! I'll teach you that in this world of the strong you stand at the bottom of the ladder to the top! You've lost already!"
"Big talk, but it doesn't mean anything! Show me what you can do Harrison! Then I'll believe all this boasting you've been doing. Don't say things like 'you've lost already' when the duel hasn't even started yet. Wait and save those words for if you actually beat me!" Their eyes met, and the entire stadium lit up as the screens above them lit up to show that the duel was underway.
He nodded, and his duel disk slid a new card out of it. He held it up, then slid it into his hand. "Very well, I'll show you exactly what dueling in this world is like. Where the strong triumph over the weak! Legendary Demon Slayer Dante(1500/1200) is my weapon!"
The red-coated demon slayer jumped out onto the field over Harrison's head, doing a flip and landing a crouch. He flashed Mizuki a cocky smirk, fingering the guns at his belt. Mizuki watched the monster and remembered. 'Since he's summoned Dante he can now activate Twin Pistols: Ebony and Ivory to grant him a three hundred point boost and a double attack. I can handle that.'
"Since Dante has been summoned I can now equip him with a card from my deck. And my choice is the mighty weapon Merciless! In exchange for the inability to equip anything else on him, Dante now gains fifteen hundred attack points!" Mizuki took a slight step backwards as a heavy razor sharp sword dropped down in front of Dante, and then the slayer picked it up as if it weighed nothing, his attack shooting up to three thousand.
'So it lets him place any equip card on it, is that it? Guess I'll have to watch more carefully. And three thousand attack points is no laughing matter either.' Harrison selected another card from his hand and slipped it into his duel disk.
"I activate Shards of the Demon Brood. You must now discard all demon and undead type monsters from your hand. If you fail to do so, you lose eight hundred life points." Mizuki grimaced, as there was nothing she could do.
"There aren't any demon or undead type monsters in my deck, let alone my hand. So I take the damage." His face-up magic card shattered and the pieces flew across the field, stabbing into her flesh. She winced, but kept calm despite the damage and slight pain. (MLP: 3200)
"Finally I set one card face down on the field. My turn is over, and now you can attempt to prove yourself. Face me with your all in this duel, and maybe you'll prove to the rest of these gathered students and teachers what I already know. You stand above those weaklings that you hang around with, and should stand in the ranks of Obelisk Blue!" Mizuki felt almost sick just hearing him, even though she wanted to get into Obelisk Blue.
"You keep talking like that and I'll forget this duel and beat you up bare handed! My friends aren't weak, and it doesn't matter what dorm I'm in, I'm a duelist all the same regardless!" She drew as she spoke, her determination rising with each word.
"What childish sentiments. Can you really uphold that in a duel against someone of my caliber, or are you just speaking for the sake of looking good? You certainly seem to be number one at this school at something, and that's pointless but inspirational. words." He adjusted his glasses again, smirking at his own witticism.
Mizuki looked down at her hand, looking over her options. Once she had seen them all she looked back up at Harrison and smirked right back, threading her cards through her fingers. "You're number one at something too. Number one at acting cool!"
The instant the words were out of her mouth she slipped one of the six cards she was holding onto her duel disk. Instantly her monster was summoned, and it appeared in the form of a man in a white robe with a glowing spear. "Rune Spearholder(1900/1200) is my choice to fight back against Dante!"
Dante eyed her new monster carefully, hardly looking threatened by it. And Harrison didn't look threatened either. "Such a monster cannot oppose Dante. Or maybe you're going to attempt some form of combo?"
"Maybe I am. Let's see what we've got here? Oh, I know! Rune Guidance activate! When I've got a Rune monster on my field I can add a 'rune symbol' from my deck to my hand." A card slid out of her deck and she held it out for him to see.
"See? It's the card that can easily take down Dante! Rune Symbol-Thurisaz which has the power to destroy one monster on the opponent's field!" The magic card started glowing, and Dante struggled as a blue aura surrounded him, pushing him to his knees.
Harrison pointed at the face down card in front of him, and it flipped up revealing a runic circle with purple smoke coming up from it. "Magic Jammer, one of the most widely known counter traps in the entire game. At a cost of one card from my hand I can negate any magic card played by the opponent."
He carefully selected one card and inserted it into the grave, and the blue glow around Dante faded away. Mizuki grimaced, realizing she had been led in. "Well that's just fine, I'll set two cards face down and end my turn."
Harrison's duel disk spat out another card for him to take, and he accepted it. "Well well, what do we have here? The magic card Demon Brood! This allows me to produce two Demon Broodling Tokens(400/400) to your field in defense mode!"
Two scrawny red-skinned demons with four tiny arms appeared on Mizuki's field, huddling up like they were scared of everything around them. "These monsters cannot be used for tribute summons at all. In addition they assist my plans with the card I sent to the grave."
Mizuki gulped as his cemetery slot started glowing, and two beams of light shot up and over Harrison's head. Finally they came crashing down into his deck. "What did you do?"
"I discarded Benefits of the Demon Slayer for the cost of Magic Jammer. As long as it is in my cemetery or on my field whenever the opposing player has a demon summoned to their field I can draw one card." His card slid him two new cards, and the light faded away.
'He was able to use a cost to benefit himself? He's freaking better than I had expected, even after seeing him duel Kane.' Even if he had that advantage, she wasn't that worried. There were only so many ways he could make up for her not having any actual demons in her deck.
"I'm sure at this point, like most of my opponents, you're assuming that there are only so many methods I can exploit when facing a duelist with no demons in their deck. Although my deck is Anti-Demon in nature, that is hardly its only strength. I don't need the other aspects to function, but no matter the situation, I can make them work anyways!" As he spoke he slammed one of his drawn cards into his duel disk, and the field began to shimmer as if with a great heat.
The two demons sniffed at the air, as if they felt something that nobody else did. And then they started eying Mizuki hungrily. "Meet my continuous magic card which will be your demise. Demon Leeching!"
He smirked again, adjusting his glasses, and then pointed at Rune Spearholder. "Dante, attack that weakling!" Dante shot forward at great speed towards the rune monster, massive sword swinging with the intent to decapitate.
"Open face down card! Rune Symbol-Wunjo now activates its reverse effect, which lets me send one monster on the opponent's field back to their hand. So Dante returns from whence he came!" Dante vanished in mid-air, and the car popped off Harrison's duel disk and back into the Obelisk Blue's hand.
Harrison didn't look all that bothered, despite the set-back. "That's fine, I"ll just resummon Legendary Demon Slayer Dante(1500/1200) and this time I'll equip him with Lightning Broadsword Alastor!"
The cocky demon slayer once again took to the field, and this time the weapon that dropped down in front of him was a broadsword that crackled with electricity. Dante gripped it by the handle and picked it up, making a few experimental strokes with it. "When equipped this card Dante gains five hundred attack points. And, once per turn he can deal the opponent five hundred damage!"
Dante swung the blade down and streaks of lightning shot off of it, slamming into Mizuki's body. She gritted her teeth, forcing herself to remain standing despite the waves of electricity coursing through her body. "I…don't fall so easily Harrison." (MLP: 2700)
"Oh? Here I wasn't even trying either. I suppose I'll have to do more to you later. But for now I set one card face down and end my turn." A single card appeared behind Dante, replacing the Magic Jammer that Harrison had used in the previous turn.
Mizuki drew and to her shock the two little demons on her field jumped from their position and tackled her. "Get off me you little freaks!" She batted at them, but to little effect. Despite her protests they sank their teeth into her arms and began to drink.
Once sated the two demons jumped away, returning to their place on the field. Mizuki sat up, her head pounding and herself feeling slightly dizzy. "What the heck was that Harrison?"
"Simple, that's the effect of my continuous magic card Demon Leeching. Every person should be aware that demons are treacherous beasts, and they will attack even their master given half the chance. So Demon Leeching works off that, deal you three hundred damage during each standby phase for every demon on your field." Mizuki glanced at her duel disk, and discovered that it was true. She had lost six hundred life points. (MLP: 2100)
"I…see." She frowned, considering her options. She currently had no way of getting rid of Demon Leeching, and no way of getting rid of the two pesky demons outside of slamming them headlong into Dante, which was a dumb idea.
'He's really good, he's set me up perfectly with two monsters I can't get rid of that will drain my life points each turn. And each turn that I can't kill Dante I'll lose an additional five hundred life points thanks to that equip card. Man, if only I could get Dante to kill them and not take damage!' She blinked, and then looked back down at her hand.
To Harrison's surprise Mizuki grinned, and then tapped her duel disk. The two little demons stood up from their huddled positions, snarling at Harrison and Dante. "I switch both tokens into attack mode!"
"Into…attack mode? You aren't actually planning on having them attack Dante just to get rid of them are you? That would drain all of your life points." Mizuki wagged a finger at him, looking happy at her choice of plan.
"That's not completely accurate actually. See, normally I'd take sixteen hundred damage if I attacked Dante with one of these tokens, but I've got a way to reduce that damage to nothing. And it's all thanks to this magic card, Rune Symbol-Algiz!" She flipped it around from her hand and her field was covered in a light blue glow.
"Demon Broodling Tokens, attack Dante!" Both of the little buggers jumped at the demon slayer. Immediately the slayer's instincts kicked in and he slashed first one and then the other in half with his broadsword, making quick work out of them.
"I see. So your Rune Symbol-Algiz reduces all damage to you for the turn to zero, is that it?" Mizuki smirked and flashed him a victory sign, proving to Harrison that his theory was correct. Not that it mattered in the slightest to him.
"Even though I can't kill Dante quite yet, I can still make preparations for later. Reverse card open, Rune Symbol-Eihwaz! I can now choose one monster on your field and that monster can no longer attack or switch modes. I choose Dante!" Red strands of light wrapped around Dante, binding his arms to his chest and preventing him from moving.
"Clever, but stopping Dante won't save you. He's not the only weapon in my deck, and you still have to worry about Demon Leeching. So, are you finished with your turn or what?" Mizuki nodded, confident that she'd make it out of this okay. Harrison was good, but he obviously wasn't invincible.
Harrison grabbed the card his deck presented him with, and then selected a different one from his hand. "You'll notice that I said you still had to worry about Demon Leeching, despite the fact that you had seemingly eliminated all demons on your field. Well I was prepared for such a circumstance with this next card!"
Mizuki braced herself for something dramatic as he held his card out. But instead of bright lights or explosions, there was a simple 'poof' on her field. When the smoke cleared the two little demonic minions were there again. "What the…how did they come back?"
"My magic card Demonic Regeneration restores your field with all demons that have been on it in the past two turns. Which means the two tokens are restored, and since they were summoned I can draw two more cards thanks to my foresight in discarding Benefits of a Demon Slayer." His cocky smirk grew as he drew twice, keeping him at a good sized hand.
'Even though I thought I had gotten rid of the threat of that magic card, it's still there so I'm not out of the fryer yet. I shouldn't have thought it would be so easy against someone at his level.' Harrison snapped his fingers, getting her attention.
"Dante may be bound from attacking or changing modes, but his equip card still gives him that special additional ability. He now deals you five hundred damage!" Lightning streaked from the tip of the blade, ran along the floor, and then shot up into Mizuki's body. She whimpered, unable to stop herself, and fell to one knee. (MLP: 1600)
"Magic card activate! Forced Summon! You must now summon one monster of equal level and same sub-type as one already on your field. I select Rune Spearholder!" Mizuki shook herself off, and reached for her deck to find a card to summon.
She had no idea what Harrison was up to with that play, but if he was intending on helping her with that then she saw no reason not to comply. Not that she had any choice but to comply. "I special summon Rune Fencer(1700/1200) to the field!"
Her white masked monster was summoned, its sword held up in classic fencing pose. 'Thanks Harrison, you've given me a way to make Dante weak enough to kill. Then I'll thrash your life points.'
"Did you think I was doing you a favor? Reverse card open, Ties to the Demon Brood! This trap activates when the opposing player summons a monster. It and all other monsters on their field of the same sub-type become demons." Mizuki gulped as her two monsters began to mutate, horns growing out of their heads and leathery wings growing out of their backs.
'I get it, he made me summon so he could use that trap and turn my monsters into demons before my standby phase rolled along. That way Demon Leeching would deal an extra burst of damage to me. Not good.' And right now in her hand and on her field there was no way to stop that damage from occurring.
"You're really not doing very well so far, are you Mizuki? But that's that to be expected, since against me you're nothing. Nothing you can do, weakling. I place this card face down for later, and then conclude my turn." He adjusted his glasses, and his eyes pierced into hers, and she felt her confidence fading.
Off to the side, back at the front row and at the railing was none other than Tobias. And he was looking particularly happy. "I thought my plans for revenge were ruined when she defeated Ensui, but rigging the randomization machine to select Harrison as her opponent was a stroke of genius. There's no way she can win!"
In the stands her friends watched with baited breath as Mizuki drew her card for the turn, unaware that this situation had been brought about by the sneaky actions of a sleazy duelist. If they had known, they likely would have beaten Tobias into a pulp.
Mizuki drew, and immediately all four of her monsters were all over her, attacking relentlessly. She was lost under the pile, being assaulted without remorse by creatures that should be fighting for her. And when they moved away, her hair was mussed and she looked weak in the knees. "I…won't let my monsters continue to hurt me." (MLP: 400)
"Not that you really have a choice. My Demon Leeching magic card will drain you of your life points bit by bit, and there's not much you can do about it. Of course, if you can't beat Dante this turn, then you lose on my turn, don't you?" He chuckled, completely confident in his victory. And so were the rest of the Obelisk Blues.
Mizuki glanced up at the crowd, seeing the signs that cheered for her, and seeing her friends faces. They were cheering her on, telling her to keep going. "As long as there are still cards left, I'll continue to fight you Harrison. And I have no intention of losing!"
"Yes, well the road to Hell is paved with good intentions. And if cards are what keep you confident, perhaps I should strip you of those cards. Activate trap card, Card Crush! One card is discarded from your hand, and if it's a demon or undead type you lose three hundred life points." A heavy force slammed into Mizuki and one of her cards went flying.
She caught it before it reached the ground, and then slid it into her duel disk. "It wasn't a demon. But…I am down to just one card in my hand now."
"Face it Mizuki, you're talented but you're just not ready to face someone like me. After all, just look at the field and the scores. Not only do I have control over the field but I've also got a commanding lead in life points. You've only got a handful of life points left, whereas I've remained untouched all game long!" Mizuki's fists clenched tighter, and she could feel herself slipping towards that place of rage that any teenage girl had. But she knew she had to keep a cool head in a duel and not get distracted.
"How do I become stronger in heart?"
"That's a matter for every duelist and person to discover on their own. Little one, although you have that weakness, I must admit that I enjoy our little duel. Perhaps next time we face each other, your strengthened heart will make me push harder, stretching us to our limits. To be in a duel where both duelist's hearts were fighting almost as much as their cards, that would be a true duel."
Mizuki lifted her head, and to her surprise her eyes met with the dark orbs that belonged to Vlad, who stood at the top of the stadium with his massive arms folded across his chest. He smiled warmly and gave her a brief nod of the had as if to say 'yes, that's right.'
Mizuki grinned and looked back at Harrison who appeared surprised at how she was smiling. "Maybe I haven't touched you yet, but I'm about to try something new. Let's see how well it works out. Rune Symbol-Fehu lets me draw twice!"
Harrison felt his blood run colder than before as she slipped one of her drawn cards into her duel disk and the field started to shake. "Rune Symbol-Tiwaz activates! At a cost of half my life points I can destroy all cards on the field!" (MLP: 200)
The crowd jumped to their feet as every single card in play was blown apart, leaving the field completely empty. And Mizuki was already slapping her remaining card down onto her duel disk. "Rune Berserker(2000/1200), attack Harrison's life points directly!"
The muscular monster growled a challenge and charged at Harrison, clotheslining the teenager. Harrison hit the ground on his back hard, and clutched at his throat, coughing violently. 'That bitch she…actually struck me?' (HLP: 2000)
Mizuki smirked and flashed Harrison a victory sign for the second time in their duel. "Don't get overconfident yet Harrison, because this duel is just getting started! I'm not finished with you by a long shot!"

Author's Note: Took me a while, but it was worth it.
Next Time: Mizuki is just getting started, but Harrison has a lot more waiting in the wings for her. And according to Harrison his mighty demon slayer Dante isn't the worst thing he has in store for her. Now Mizuki has to fight with her all to defeat this powerful opponent!
See it all in, VS The Dark Prince; Slayers and Avengers!
Review Response: From now on there will not be a review response thanks to newest rules. Sorry folks.
