74. Bet By The Devil and Angel
Kyu sat at his desk, tapping his pencil slightly in the dead but silent classroom. "Final exams are almost here... How can I study when I have to face the last member of the Killer 9? Besides... Who ever he is, he IS the leader, which will make him extra tough..." Kyu thought, looking at his deck.
Quartz looked over from his side. The cards with Sophia and Genesis trapped souls lay before him. "He seems distraught by this pressure..." He thought, keeping his face pointed in the book before him.
Suddenly Mimura spoke out. "Kyu-Haru, you're wanted at Seto Kaiba's office." Mimura said.
"Me?" Kyu thought.
Kyu headed out the door quickly, Quartz's eyes following him as he left. Kyu walked down the silent hall, seemed like no other soul was walking with him. He then smiled. "Quartz, you are a curious guy, huh?" He said, turning to face Quartz who had silently been walking behind him.
"Hey, you never know." Quartz said. "Besides, I haven't fought a Killer 9 member yet, so I should be able to take dibs. Plus, you'll need all the help you can get."
"Thanks, I appreciate it..." Kyu said as the two kept walking. Kyu and Quartz stopped in front of Seto Kaiba's office. Kyu gulped, pushing the double doors opened. Kaiba sat behind his desk, facing the two.
"Kyu-Haru." Kaiba said. "I must inform you..."
"Is it about Von Bourg? The last Killer 9? What!" Kyu said, eager to know.
"Let me explain..." Kaiba hissed, he seemed very frustrated and angered.
"It's not about them... It's about the Lux Gods..." Kaiba growled. "I was chosen to protect those cards. It was only part of the reason why I decided to host this school. This isn't the first time we've lost three of the many types of god cards we own, but if I don't see those three Lux Gods within my school again, I won't be able to run this school anymore."
"What? Why?" Quartz asked.
"I made a promise and that promise will break if you EVER lose the Saint Goddess of The Gale." Kaiba growled. "I'll have no choice but to send every student here back home."
"So no matter what, I can't lose..." Kyu said.
"You bet your ass your right..." Kaiba said sternly. Kaiba was really dedicated to his school, he didn't want to let it go because a few cards were stolen.
"I received this note this morning..." Kaiba said, showing Kyu the pale envelope. "It's addressed to you."
Kaiba slid the envelope forward, Kyu stepped forward, grabbing the envelope. He broke the wax seal, opening the letter. It wasn't a letter, it was a map.
It was the map of the entire island, and there was a pointer, pointing somewhere within the middle of the forest, which was labeled '9'.
"This is where the last Killer 9 member is..." Kyu said as Quartz glanced at the map.
"You and Quartz will go pay him a visit tonight..." Kaiba said. "Quartz, you are one of our strongest duelist here, with Violet incapacitated, I want you to assist Kyu in this final battle."
"Me?" Quartz said. "I'm up for the challenge."
"Good." Kaiba said. "All bets are off. You HAVE to win this..."
"Right..." Kyu said. Both bowed and left the room. Kaiba watched them as as they shut the doors. Kaiba turned around in his chair, facing the wide window, viewing the forest from his office.
"Should we tell the others?" Quartz asked.
"No, this is our battle now. I don't want anyone to get hurt. Who ever this guy is, he'll probably do anything to win." Kyu replied, grasping the map in his hand. "We start at sun down..."
Kyu sat at a table within the cafeteria, gobbling up any food he could grab as fast as possible. Hide and Yukie looked at him weirdly.
"Funny, Quartz isn't with us today..." Yukie said to end the silence.
"He's... Studying..." Kyu said with a mouth full of food.
"Slow down, Kyu-Haru, you might explode!" Hide said.
"Don't worry! I need this energy for tomorrow. I have a big test!" Kyu said, finishing his food and leaning back in his chair. "I'm totally prepared for this!"
"What about the last Killer 9 member?" Yukie asked.
"I'll be ready for him..." Kyu said looking away.
Hide observed his eye movements. "Usually you'd either be pumped about this or angered. You seem different..." Hide said, narrowing his eyes. "Is there something you're not telling us?"
"What! Me? No way!" Kyu chuckled.
"Then what's this I found?" Yukie said, holding up the map which was delivered to Kyu.
"Where'd you get that!" Kyu said in shock.
"On your desk. It seems you're just getting that boost of energy to fight the last Killer 9 member! How can you do this to us!" Yukie said.
"Yeah, I mean, we're here to help, why would you keep this a secret?" Hide asked.
"It's a long story... Seto Kaiba called me in for a private meeting. Quartz tagged along with me too. We're to fight the last member tonight..." Kyu confessed. "I didn't want you guys involved because I know this last guy will do anything to win, even endanger you guys."
"I see..." Yukie said as she and Hide hung their head.
"So... It's just you and Quartz against the last member?" Hide asked, Kyu nodded.
"Well, like always we respect your request. Don't worry! You won't see us here at all!" Yukie smiled cheerfully.
"Right!" Hide said, nodding.
From a far, Marika stood at the entrance way to the Obelisk Blue cafeteria, armed with a camera. She zoomed in on the map which Yukie held, quickly taking a snap shot.
"I knew you were hiding something..." Marika thought, looking at the map from her digital camera. "If I want my brother back, I'll have to use you to guide me, Kyu-Haru."
Late that night, Kyu and Quartz watched from the school entrance, seeing the sun set. "Well... Here we go..." Kyu said as both of them started heading toward a direction in the forest. Kyu kept his eyes on the map while Quartz looked around at their surroundings.
Marika also stood at the school entrance, hidden behind a pillar, she kept her distance between Kyu and Quartz, making sure not be noticed as she followed them.
It didn't take long for them to stop at a empty dirt field. The dirt was dry under their shoes and dead grass was scattered in random areas.
"Kyu-Haru. Quartz... I was expecting you two to show your faces..." A voice said, hidden within a patch of darkness.
The cloaked figure stepped out. "I recognize that voice..." Kyu thought.
"You should..." The voice laughed as the figure threw off his heavy cloak. It was Dameon in his same black outfit, his face pale with jet black hair.
"Dameon."Kyu growled.
"The guy who told you about the Killer 9 in the first place!" Quartz said.
"Quite shocking isn't it? All along I've been the final member, the leader of the Killer 9..." Dameon smiled deviously. "Well you know the drill. It's time to duel! Winner keeps the final Lux God!"
"I know the drill..." Kyu growled, lifting up his duel disk.
"I see I'll be facing two opponents today, Seems fair enough since I'm equipped with the three Devil Gods." Dameon smiled.
"Three?" Quartz asked.
Dameon chuckled. "Devils Dread-Root... Devil's Advocate... And one, that'll be quite suitable for me." Dameon smiled. "Of all other opponent's you faced, my deck is equipped with the burning desire for chaos. My Devil God Deck suits me well."
"Well then it'll be just as fair if I use the Saint Goddess of The Gale then!" Kyu said, revealing the card.
"It will..." Dameon smiled. "But it won't help you in this final duel... So! Let's get this started!"
Dameon revealed his black duel disk, sliding his deck in, causing it to fold out. Quartz and Kyu revealed theirs, sliding their decks in and causing them to fold out.
"Duel!" The three announced as each of their life points rose to 4000.
"Quartz, I've been an enemy to you since day one..." Quartz thought, remembering back to when he had first met him, lost to him, then a second time. He pitied and hated himself for it. "And for that, me assisting you in this duel will be my apology."
"Kyu-Haru. Since I first met you, I knew you were a no good good guy. You were lucky enough for me to forfeit that first duel. But I work for Von Bourg, which now means I won't have mercy at all!" Dameon thought as he took his first five cards.
"I will protect he lux god..." Kyu said to himself as he drew his first five.
"I'll begin, draw!" Dameon shouted as a whirl of wind shot passed the two opponents. Dameon felt a chill go down his spine, sensing his draw. "Perfect, I drew my very own Devil God..."
"He looked strange drawing his first card..." Quartz observed. "He must have drawn one..."
"I'll start my first move by playing these three magic cards, Devil Sanctuary!" Dameon announced as three of his magic cards appeared on the field. "These automatically special summon Metal Devil Tokens! (3x 0/0)"
"He'll be able to sacrifice those to summon his Devil God!" Kyu gasped.
"What a lucky hand I have..." Dameon smiled. "Now! I sacrifice my three Metal Devil Tokens to summon my almighty Devils Dread-Root! (4000/4000)"
"I remember this..." Kyu growled as a giant demon began to rise to the field, its lower body replaced by a deadly snake head.
Kyu remembered back to when he first faced this great beast, it was when he first met Von Bourg, he had control over Violet and he had given that card to her to use.
"Now as long as this card is on the field, all other monster's attack and defense points will be halved!" Dameon announced. "To end my turn, I'll set a card face down and end my turn..."
"For you, Kyu-Haru, I'll be the one who will take this next turn, draw!" Quartz announced, drawing his first card.
"Thanks, Quartz..." Kyu said warmly.
"I'll match you equally, Dameon!" Quartz said. "Putting my strongest cards against your! I'll first activate Attack Tower!"
"Heh. I've studied your duel tactics, young Quartz..." Dameon smiled. "If you really think a simple magic card can stop me, you're thinking wrong."
"Yeah, but it will benefit me right now." Quartz smirked. "Now! I sacrifice Magnet Warrior Sigma Plus, and Magnet Warrior Omega Minus from my hand, to summon this!"
Quartz flashed the card to Dameon and Dameon just smiled as Quartz slapped the card onto the field. "Super Conductive Warrior Linear Magnum Plus Minus! (2700/2000)" Quartz announced as a single giant machine appeared to the field, raising the two giant cannons on its shoulders up.
"Activate Devils Dread-Root!" Dameon called out. "Your monster will now lose half of its attack power!"
Dameon laughed evilly as Quartz's machine's attack strength reduced to 1350, but Quartz only smiled. "You seem pretty happy now that your machine is weaker. But how will it benefit you if you can't even equip it to your tower?" Dameon asked.
"Because I have this..." Quartz smiled, taking the next card in his hand. "Now! I activate Rock Tower Combination!"
"Alright..." Kyu thought, glancing over. "That will allow Quartz's rock type monsters to use his Attack Tower."
Suddenly a rock wall rose up, guarding around Quartz's attack tower. "Now! Super Conductive Warrior Linear Magnum Plus Minus, rise to the Attack Tower!" Quartz commanded.
The giant machine jumped at the top of the small watch tower, up to the roof where it looked down at Dameon. "This will reduce my monster's attack strength by half!" Quartz announced as his machine weakened to 675. "But it comes with a beneficial effect. Once summoned, I'm able to select a monster and increase its attack strength by half of the chosen monster. And since you only have your Devil's Dread-Roots, my Super Conductive Warrior gains two thousand attack points!"
"Heh." Dameon only said as Super Conductive Warrior Linear Magnum Plus Minus grew to 2675.
"Also, my Attack Tower gives me the ability to attack your life points directly!" Quartz said, pointing at Dameon.
"Good, Quartz is giving us the lead already..." Kyu thought.
"Now! Super Conductive Warrior Linear Magnum Plus Minus, attack his life points directly!" Quartz commanded, pointing.
Dameon grinned evilly as the machine up on the tower focused its two large cannons at Dameon, firing two shining blasts toward him. "Reveal trap card!" Dameon commanded, pointing his hand at his trap card. "Devil's Cycle!"
"What!" Kyu said in shock.
"By this card's effect, I can sacrifice five hundred life points (LP: 3500) during each turn to return all magic and trap cards on the field back to each players hand!" Dameon smiled as a giant black whirlwind appeared, blowing Quartz's Attack Tower and Rock Tower Combination away. The two cards appeared back into Quartz's hand.
"No way..." Quartz growled.
"That also includes my own trap card." Dameon smiled as he brought back his Devil's Cycle to his hand.
"As long as he has that trap card down, our magic and trap cards are just as useless..." Kyu growled.
Quartz growled. "Too bad your trap card doesn't keep me from reactivating my magic cards." He said. "I'll reactivate Attack Tower (3000/0) and Rock Combination Tower!"
Suddenly the tower rose back to the field, its rock wall guarding it once again. "I'll also activate Magnet Conductor Plus! Allowing me to bring back a Plus Monster to my hand, from my graveyard." Quartz announced as a monster card slid out of his graveyard holster, he took it. "I'll then summon Magnet Warrior, Sigma Plus to the field in defense mode (1500/1800). Which I then equip to my Attack Tower."
As Magnet Warrior Sigma Plus made to the tower, its attack strength reduced to 900. "Devils Dread-Root activate!" Dameon hollered. "This will reduce the defense of your magnet warrior by half!"
Quartz growled as his warrior's defense strength reduced to 750. "My turn ends..." He announced slowly.
"My turn draw!" Kyu announced, drawing his next card. "I'll start off by activating this, Bond of Brothers!"
"Hmmm, Kyu-Haru's ultimate XYZ Dragon Cannon is about to be unleashed, too bad it's no match for my Devils Dread-Root." Dameon thought, smiling evilly.
"By sacrificing one thousand Life Points (LP: 3000) I'll be able to special summon two monsters of the same type! Now! I bring forth Y Dragon Head (1500/1600) and Z Metal Caterpillar! (1500/1300)" Kyu announced as the small tank and mechanical dragon materialized to the field. "Next, I'll summon X Head Cannon! (1800/1500)"
The final machine materialized to the field, all three machines ready to engage their fusion. "I hope Kyu knows that God Cards are unaffected by monster effects..." Quartz said, having a some what worried expression.
"Now! X, Y, Z machines! Fuse!" Kyu commanded, pointing. The three machines launched into the air, fusing together into one giant heavy machine, its cannons pointing in all directions. "This creates XYZ Dragon Cannon! (2800/2600)"
"Heh. Knew it." Dameon smirked. "Due to Devils Dread-Root's effect, your XYZ Dragon Cannon loses half of its attack strength"
Kyu watched as his machine's attack strength weakened to 1400. "Now! I activate XYZ Dragon Cannon's special effect!" Kyu commanded. "By discarding one card from my hand, I'll be able to automatically destroy one card on the field!"
"Your a fool, if you think destroying my Devils Dread-Root with a simple monster effect, you're wrong." Dameon smirked as Kyu slid his card into his graveyard. The dragon cannon aimed one single cannon at the devil god, firing a missile which exploded in its face.
"This kid must be crazy... But then again, he must have taken this advantage to send his Goddess to his graveayard." Dameon growled.
The smoke cleared and Devils Dread-Root remained on the field. "Mind filling us in on your plan? Kyu-Haru?" Quartz asked.
"it's very simple..." Kyu smiled. "Obviously our gods are aching to fight, I've drawn my own Lux God on the first draw after Dameon drew his. But I had no way of summoning, the only way was to special summon it. So thanks to the effect of my XYZ Dragon Cannon, I easily threw it to my graveyard."
"No..." Dameon growled.
"Now! Activate magic card, Raise Dead!" Kyu announced as his magic card flipped up. "So I can bring back Saint Goddess of The Gale! (4000/4000)"
Suddenly a woman with long green hair and a beautiful gown with leaves covering it rose up to the field, soothing wind blowing in all places as green leaves showered the field, bringing light into the dark night.
"Heh, you're planning way too ahead, Kyu-Haru." Dameon smiled. "You went through a lot just to bring up a single god. By using a magic card on the Lux God, it will only be up for one turn."
"One turn is all I need! Saint Goddess of The Gale's special effect activates!" Kyu announced as the goddess brought her smooth white hands together, causing more light to glow. "She'll purify your Devil God and send it to your graveyard!"
The blinding light grew intense until all three duelists had to cover their eyes. Dameon growled, opening his eyes, seeing his Devil's Dread-Root was missing.
"Yes, Kyu-Haru managed to defeat his devil god easily, breaking its effect." Quartz said in his mind as his Magnet Warrior Sigma Plus' defense strength rose back to 1500 and his Super Conductive Warrior Linear Magnum Plus Minus to 2700. Kyu smiled as his XYZ Dragon Cannon grew back to 2800.
"Now! Saint Goddess of The Gale's second special ability activates!" Kyu pointed. "She'll purify all other monsters on our field, increasing their attack points by one thousand!"
"Err..." Dameon growled evilly Kyu's XYZ Dragon Cannon grew to 3800. Quartz watched as his Magnet Warrior, Sigma Plus' attack strength rise to 1900, and his Super Conductive Warrior Linear Magnum Plus Minus to 3700.
"It's time to end this duel now!" Kyu growled. "Saint Goddess of The Gale! Attack his life points directly!"
"My fate is telling you wrong, Kyu-Haru!" Dameon laughed. "It isn't you who will win this duel it is me!"
"What do you mean!" Quartz snapped.
"Activate trap card, Devil's Afterimage!" Dameon announced, slipping the trap card into the slot of his duel disk.
"What!" Kyu gasped.
"When I have no cards on my field, I can instantly activate this card during battle. The damage your Lux God will create will be directed back toward you, Kyu-Haru!" Dameon laughed, pointing.
"No..." Kyu and Quartz growled as Saint Goddess of The Gale thrusted her two smooth white hands forward, causing a colorful dusk of wind to fly forward toward Quartz, but then a shadowy figure of his Devil's Dread-Root appeared, taking the full blast, but then the shadow came back to life, launching itself toward Kyu.
"Fate is on my side, Kyu-Haru! You were never meant to win!" Dameon laughed dreadfully.
"Activate magic card, Winged Flute!" Quartz suddenly shouted as a magic card formed on the field, flipping itself up.
"What?" Dameon growled as the magic card began to glow.
Quartz smiled. "I was able to activate this card when I depleted all cards in my hand during my first turn." He explained. "Once activated all damage done to all player's life points are negated!"
"No..." Dameon growled. Kyu shielded himself with one arm as the shadowy figure charged into him, phasing through him like a ghost, Kyu was unharmed.
"Not only that, but I'll be able to summon Winged Kuriboh to the field, in defense mode! (200/300)" Quartz announced as a winged fuzz ball materialized to the field, giving a cute cry.
"Excellent..." Kyu said, nodding. "Kuriboh's effect will save us for a turn."
"Heh."Dameon smiled.
"My turn ends!" Kyu called.
Dameon narrowed his eyes with pleasure, his life points standing at 3500, Kyu's at 3000, Quartz's still remained at 4000.
"Because you end your turn, Saint Goddess of the Gale will no longer remain on the field!" Dameon called out. "Due to it's effect, it can only be affected by magic cards for one turn!"
Kyu growled as he watched his Saint Goddess of The Gale vanish from air. "Now we're even..." Dameon smiled evilly.
"We already know what his first card is, Devil's Cycle which allows him to return all magic and trap cards back to their hands. Even if we activate our cards, he can easily just send them back without activating its effect..." Kyu said in thought. "But the one side effect he has is sacrificing five hundred life points in order to activate that effect."
Dameon looked at his hand. "I'll place one card face down..." He said, slipping the card into the slot, then glancing at the two.
"He's set it..." Quartz and Kyu thought.
"Than activate this, Treasure of Heaven!" Dameon announced. "This forces us both to draw until we each have six. Lucky for us because we all depleted our hands."
"Yeah.. Lucky..." Quartz said sarcastically as he drew his six cards.
Kyu drew his next six, glaring at Dameon who took his time, drawing his six cards. Dameon observed their looks, wanting to see what type of cards they drew, but Quartz and Kyu maintained a poker face.
"Heh, you guys are no fun." Dameon smirked. "I guess, I'll have to start the fun then, activate magic card, Double Magic!"
"Huh?" Kyu said.
"By discarding two magic cards from my hand, to my graveyard, I'm allowed to activate a magic card from my graveyard!" Dameon explained. "Now activate, Devil's Sanctuary!"
"Err..." Quartz growled as the magic card rose up, starting to glow. A hexagonal pentagram rose up from the ground, and a metal devil appeared.
"You know the drill, this automatically brings up Metal Devil Token! (0/0)" Dameon said as the devil hung its head. "But now! I'll activate my trap card! Devil's Cycle!"
"No!" Kyu and Quartz gasped, realizing what was going on.
"By sacrificing five hundred life points (LP: 3000). I'll return Devil's Sanctuary back to my hand!" Dameon shouted as the magic card flew back to his hand, along with his Devil's Cycle trap card. "And now! I'll activate it again! Go! Devil's Sanctuary!"
The magic card formed on the field, throwing out another pentagram circle. "And arise! Metal Devil Token! (0/0)" Dameon roared as the second metal devil token formed on the field.
"I bet anything he drew his second devil god..." Kyu thought, snarling as he felt the darkness welling up within Dameon's card. "He's trying to bring it to the field..."
"Heh, if you're thinking I'm trying to bring forth another god, your wrong." Dameon smiled. "You think I need more than one god to defeat one of the two top duelist in Duelist Academy?"
"What?" Kyu said, confused.
"I'll set one card face down, then activate this!" Dameon announced, flashing his card. "Raise Dead!"
"He plans to bring back his god card..." Quartz growled.
"Wrong, Quartz..." Dameon smiled as a green swirl of wind came up, forming a giant green tornado of leaves.
"No way!" Kyu gasped.
"Now come back! Saint Goddess of The Gale! (4000/4000)" Dameon announced as the saint goddess rose up to the field.
"Why would he do that..." Kyu wondered.
"I know you're wondering why, but it's all the better to activate this! Rule of Arc!" Dameon announced, flashing the card to them. "Once activated, I can sacrifice Saint Goddess of The Gale to special summon another monster from my graveyard of the same type!"
Suddenly Saint Goddess of The Gale vanished away. "Err..." Quartz growled, his eye twitching as a shadow rose up.
"Since Saint Goddess of The Gale is a divine god, I'm able to bring back my Devils Dread-Root! (4000/4000)" Dameon howled as the shadow formed, forming the great devil god.
"Dameon is really going all out. He isn't holding back..." Kyu growled.
"Heh, this is all too good." Dameon smiled. "Although I can destroy you all now, I still have a bit of worry that you two might be up to something... But now that Devils Dread-Root is on the field, all attack and defense points are reduced by half!"
Quartz growled watching his Winged Kuriboh's defense reduce to 100, his Super Conductive Warrior Linear Magnum Plus Minus' attack to 1350, and his Magnet Warrior Sigma Plus' defense to 750.
Kyu watched as his XYZ Dragon Cannon once again reduced down to 1400. "Damn..." Kyu thought.
"I'll also activate this final card..." Dameon smiled, taking the last card in his hand. "Now! Activate, Counter Exchange!"
"Huh?" Quartz thought.
"By sacrificing my two Metal Devil Tokens..." Dameon explained as the two metal devils vanished. "I'm able to give my Devils Dread-Root two counters, and as long as those two counters remain on my monster, it won't be able to be destroyed by card effect or battle."
"No! This will assure him a pure win..." Kyu growled.
"It sure as hell will..." Dameon laughed as two black flames appeared over Devils Dread-Root. "Now, this is a tough part, deciding what to attack first..."
Dameon glanced at the nervous Kyu and Quartz. "If I attack Kyu-Haru,. My chances of destroying him first will benefit me. But then again... Quartz is a pretty smart thinker..." Dameon thought, scratching his chin. "It'd make more sense to attack Quartz, he has his plan out already... While Kyu-Haru does not..."
Suddenly Dameon's eyes opened wide. "He's decided..." Kyu and Quartz gasped in their minds, beads of sweat coming down their faces within the cold night.
Marika sat behind a tree, peaking out, seeing the three dueling. She moved back, not watching the duel. Marika had heard the duel going on without watching, and already her heart was pounding. "This is tense..." She thought.
Dameon smiled, eying the tree which Marika hid behind. "Now! Devils Dread-Root, attack and destroy... Super Conductive Warrior Linear Magnum Plus Minus!" Dameon commanded, pointing.
"No..." Quartz growled as the giant demon rose his giant fist. Lightning broke as the giant fist came crashing down on the machine, crushing it to pieces. As the great devil rose its fist back up, bolts and sheets of dented metal were left, and Quartz's life points reduced to 1350.
"Heh."Dameon smiled. Quartz now only had his defending Winged Kuriboh, Magnet Warrior Sigma Plus, and Attack Tower.
"It's all a matter of time before I finish the both of you off." Dameon smiled.
As Dameon evilly glared the two duelist down. Von Bourg sat in his dark throne, two orbs in the shape of eyes viewed the duel. Von Bourg looked through Dameon's perspective. In the corner of the left eye, he saw Marika peeking out at the duel.
"This is going well so far, Dameon." Von Bourg smiled to himself, sipping a dark glass of wine. "I'm glad Marika was able to tag along, she'll play an excellent role in my game..."
Von Bourg let out an evil chuckle as the eyes closed, leaving him in darkness. From Kyu's bed room, Hide and Yukie cuddle against the small window, trying to see what was going on. There was a faint figure of the Devils Dread-Root looming over a small patch of cleared land.
"I hope they're ok." Yukie said worriedly.
"They will be... They have to..." Hide said.
Doxx sat at his desk, his computer on, but he wasn't paying attention. He looked over his screen to the window, seeing the dark land which the devil god stood upon. Kaiba also looked from his office window, seeing the devil god. "Kyu-Haru." Kaiba growled, clenching his fist which rested upon his arm rest.
PREVIEW
Kyu: Looks like we're into the middle of this tough battle. Dameon is letting out his strongest Devil Gods. With his Devils Dread-Root on the field, things already seem like they're headed down hill. But as we pull through Quartz realizes that fate isn't on his side as he is targeted by Dameon. Quartz unleashes his Heavenly War Arcana Knight Joker to the field. I maintain my XYZ Dragon Cannon for a while until Dameon unleashes his second Devil God, Devils Advocate. Next chapter is Quartz and Kyu VS Dameon, War Against a God! See you there!
