XII. Turning things around

The cloaked man staggers for a while then finally he gets up and begins his turn.

"If I don't do something fast I'll-------" the cloaked man thought as he draws a card. Suddenly, half of the priests sensed something like an invisible aura.

"What is this power?" Karimu asked.

"It seems so familiar" Atemu thought now glancing at the cloaked man.

"This power might help him after all" Isis said.

"I hope you're right, Isis" Aknadin stated.

"So did you get the right card?" the mystery man asked.

The cloaked man looked at the card he drew: it was Mystic Tomato then he looked around on his side of the field. The mystery man has 2 set cards and 3 monsters on the field while his side of the field has no monsters. He looked at his hand cards then realization stroke him.

"Hmmm... his deck are a bit lower now than mine if only I can make himrun out of cards" the cloaked man thought then he saw one of his hand cards is Byser Shock a level 5 star monster but he can't summon it without a sacrifice and Card Destruction the card he just drew due to Cyber Jar's effect.

"It's all or nothing here goes... I summon Mystic Tomato in Attack mode!" the cloaked man declared and a weird faced tomato appeared on the field.

"Attack Hysteric Fairy!" he added.

"What! Are you insane! That move you're killing yourself!" the mystery man exclaimed and so Mystic Tomato tries to attack but Hysteric Fairy kicked that monster out of the sky. In addition the cloaked man lost 100 points bringing him down to 100 as well.

"It doesn't matter now because I activate Mystic Tomato's effect to Special Summon a monster with 1500 Atk or less. Special Summon Byser Shock. When Byser Shock is Special Summon all set cards must return to the owner's hands. Since I don't have any set cards yours will be returned instead" the cloaked man said and the mystery man picked 2 of his reversed cards back to his hand.

"I activate the Magic Card Destruction, both players must discard the same number of hnds to the graveyard and draw the same number. End turn!" the cloaked man grinned.

It's the mystery man's turn but suddenly he can't draw any more cards.

"What the-----?" the mystery man gasped then he looked at his own deck now empty.

"This cannot be" he exclaimed.

"Sorry but you lose and did I forget to mention that you said that whenever a player runs out of cards, that player automatically lose and I think the dark fog desires your soul now!" the cloaked man hissed.

The Pharaoh and the royal priesta watched in horror as the man is consumed in the shadows then the fog is finally lifted. Suddenly, the cloaked man fell down to one as he got hurt also.

"Stay still" Mana said then with her magic she healed him back to normal.

"I want to thank you for saving all our lives on my behalf. By the way, what's your name?" Atemu asked curiously.

"I can't let him know who I really am-----" the cloaked man thought

"My name is------- Ra-seru it means God's helper" the cloaked man said getting nervous.
