Chapter 1: The Beginning (last time modified: 1/04/2022)

Now playing: Buddyfight Champions OP 1 - "Champions" by Hoho

https/youtu.be/VFz-WORkKFQ

Somewhere in a world filled with dragons, there was a dragon standing alone in a patch of blossoming flowers.

"I do not understand...it has been years, decades, ages...I still can't find them. I am sorry everyone..." Xander held back his tears and stared at the sky. It was clean and blue, but it didn't favour him.

Since then, the war of warriors and the mysterious black evil dragon. I seek strength, a true power. And I would have my revenge...and peace.

Xander clenched his fist and sighed. "But I am still too weak..."

"No. I would definitely become stronger! Just wait for me and I will. One day, I will become the strongest warrior ever in my land."

"I have heard there is a new connected world to our world. They live in harmony. To do so I need a good buddy from another world to help me."

"With a game called BuddyFight."

In a dark and black void. A strange voice came into Morihito's ear. It was like someone begging. Morihito was stunned by this scene.

Please...please wake up...

Please come back...I beg you...don't leave me alone...

"What do you mean? I am right here!"

The mist disappeared and transformed into a card.

"Huh? A card?!"

"Wait! Don't go away!!!"

"NO-"

He dreamed of himself falling into darkness. Then he found himself staring at the ceiling. A warm light shined on Morihito's face. Soon, a noisy clock started to ring on him. Morihito turned around and shut it down immediately.

"Awwhhhhh...a bad dream...again?" He yawned. The next second he noticed that the clock had stopped and went straight up like a ruler.

"Oh- OH CRAP!" A screaming from nowhere can be heard even miles away.

So he hurried up to brush his teeth, with bubbles flowing out in corners, ate his easy breakfast and ran to school at the speed of light.

How careless am I?! I can't let my first day be late like this!

"Yeah. This is me. My name is Amari Morihito. A normal secondary school student, year 8. Today is my first time transferring to the school - Aibo Academy, a school with world geniuses. I don't know whether I am one of them. It is weird to be invited by them to study buddyology."

Clock...checked. Right on time!

Morihito opened the door softly after chilling and went inside the classroom. Everyone stared at Morihito and started murmuring. Therefore The class teacher asked Morihitoto to introduce himself.

"Alright, class please settle down. We have a new transfer student! Please introduce yourself."

"My name is Amari Morihito. Nice to meet you all." Morihito appeared to be a little nervous but he put on a smile.

"Good job! Everyone gives him a welcome!" The teacher clapped her hands and after a few seconds, the class followed.

"Alright class, you know we are going to have a short field trip about the production of Buddyfight cards today. Please get ready and line up outside!" The teacher said, the class concentrated on the field trip.

"I hope everything is fine." Morihito was worried.

"A new face, hm? Poor kid..you don't know who is the boss here..." A soft voice behind Morihito.

Morihito failed to alert him.

The class arrived at the shopping mall and headed to a card shop. The teacher was excited to announce. "Lucky to you all! There is a free card pack sample for our class! Enjoy!"

"Hurray!" The class celebrated.

Everyone couldn't wait to open them and something caught Morihito's attention.

Why do they look so familiar? Aren't those the cards I saw in the dream? Weird. I should find out what this is. Maybe I can solve my dream with this?

Suddenly, someone caught Morihito's arms brutally and pushed him to the corner. He fell to the floor and looked up.

What the hell? Who's that?!

"What's wrong with you?!" Morihito tried to scream but Kenji covered his mouth.

"You're just as pathetic as I thought. Now, this card pack belongs to me!"

"Mmhhhmhhm!!" Morihito struggled but he couldn't escape. He tried to push away Kenji but he couldn't.

He's too strong...!

"You think you can beat me just by that?" Kenji laughed at him.

Surprisingly, the card pack shined and flew away from Kenji's hand in a blow of wind. It flew over the shop and went all the way down to the stage. Morihito and Kenji rushed out of the shop and looked down. They forgot their fight previously.

"Wait, that's mine!" Kenji roared and kicked Morihito to the fences.

"What is going on?!" Morihito got up from the floor and followed Kenji down the stairs to the stage. He found out that he stood still near the glowing card pack.

"No way...could this be! A Buddy Monster?!"

"What is that?"

"A duper rare card that's super powerful!"

"WHAT?!"

"..."

"It is generating something...strong!"

"AHHHH!" Both of them screamed.

A light fell on the monster inside the shadow. It is clear that it is a huge dragon, facing Morihito and Kenji. A longsword reflected the light and sparkled on his back.

Are you the human that I am finding?

"I am Ancient Force Protector Dragon, Xander. You humans, please tell me your name."

"Huh...?" Morihito and Kenji looked at each other for a while. Kenji shouted, "Hey my new buddy, I am your master Kenji!"

"What?! This guy stole my card pack! How come he is your buddy!"

"I already told you this card pack is mine!" Kenji argued.

"That does not make any sense!" Morihito shouted in worry.

Xander sighed. "Then prove yourself you are the right one."

"Huh?" Morihito pointed at himself.

"Are you afraid to fight me with Buddyfight? Don't make me laugh! I will definitely win against a newbie like you!" Kenji mocked Morihito. Then he whispered in his ears. "And finally I will have a buddy fight monster. Unlike you, scum."

"Humans, fight to prove yourself. Prove yourself to be worthy to be my buddy in Buddyfight."

"How...? I don't even know how to play? I don't have cards!"

"I will lend you my friends for this fight. What do you say?"

"Are you gonna give up before you try it?"

What should I do? If I do not try I may lose my only opportunity to find my dream! I must step forward if I want to find out. I have no choice.

"Alright. I will give it a try."

"Hurry up! Come on the stage and we will start the fight, loser! Your buddy will be mine!" Kenji rushed to the stage.

Morihito arrived on the stage and was startled.

Uh oh. I think I do not know how to play this at all.

Kenji luminized and he saw Morihito stunned like a rock.

What's his problem, just luminize! Don't tell me he doesn't know how to!

Kenji shouted "Danger world! Buddy Monster Armorknight Bahamut"

"Ok...Ancient World!" Morihito said.

Xander shouted at Morihito slightly irritatingly. "Stupid human I am from Dragon World, not Ancient World! Read the cards carefully!"

"Huh? Ok! It is Dragon World, not Ancient World." Morihito shouted. While Kenji couldn't hold his laugh.

Just before the fight starts I already messed up? This is not a good sign.

"Buddyfight!"

Morihito [Life: 10/ Gauge: 2/ Hand: 6]

Kenji [Life: 10/ Gauge: 2/ Hand: 6]

Kenji "I will go first! Draw! Charge and draw! I call Armorknight Ogre to the centre and attack the fighter!"

Kenji's field

A monster with giant tooths, iron armour and a mace appeared in front of Morihito.

This looks dangerous...

"Ahh!" He was shocked at first, then he turned away to see the life counter.

Does it cause real damage? Luckily it doesn't hurt much. The counter. It decreases! Does that mean if it drops to 0 I will lose? Kenji uses a technique to draw, and his energy card increases...but he also loses one card in his hand! Maybe I should follow as he did to get more of that energy for better use.

"My turn ends." Kenji said.

"Alright! My turn! Draw, charge and draw!" Morihito said.

Morihito's field

[Life: 8/ Gauge: 3/ Hand: 7]

Item: None

Morihito looked at his cards carefully.

Do the cards have different types? Spell, monster? I think Kenji used the "monster" card. Let's try to call it out.

At the moment Morihito wanted to call the monster but he noticed something.

Wait. There is a monster in Kenji's centre, and it seems to protect Kenji. What if I call up two or three monsters? There are also a few sets of numbers on this type of card. Red, Blue, yellow and white. What are these? My health still has 8, I can take some risks to test them out.

"First I call Brave Fist, Red Dragon to the right!"

Morihito's field

[Life: 8/ Gauge: 2/ Hand: 6]

A small red dragon popped up with flaming fists.

A little blue dragon holding a cutlass, with a little treasure bag and a pirate hat. "I, the captain of the sea, will defeat your opponents!"

Armorknight Ogreq was destroyed with a punch in his chest and the flames spread to Kenji. Morihito had a new thought about it:

This is unexpected. Red Dragon can damage the monster and the opponent together?

His cards increased after using that card? I see, this is how you cast a "spell"... Morihito thought in his mind.

"I call Armorknight Hellhound to the centre and I pay three gauges buddy call Armorknight Bahamut to the centre! It is time to declare your death!" Kenji said with rage.

(L: Armorknight Tiger) (C: Armorknight Bahamut) (R: Armorknight Eagle)

"Haha! My strongest formation! A size 3 monster on my centre with over 10k power and defence and 3 critical! And I am not done yet! I cast Demon Slay Dreadful Pressure!"

Power and defence? He must be referring to that monster. Morihito started to understand how the game works.

Tiger roared and broke into card pieces.

He did it again! Morihito couldn't believe his eyes.

Demon Slay Dreadful Pressure

[Counter] Destroy a monster on your field. If you do, put the top card of your deck into your gauge, you gain 1 life and draw a card. You may only cast "Demon Slay Fierce Dreadful Pressure" once per turn.

"I can just replace him with another. I call Armorknight Gargoyle to the left." Kenji said.

Kenji's field

[Life: 11/ Gauge: 1/ Hand: 3]

Item: None

(L: Armorknight Gargoyle) (C: Armorknight Bahamut) (R: Armorknight Eagle)

Kenji destroyed Great Treasure, Pirate Dragon with Armorknight Eagle. It bounced on the ground and returned after a green card piece behind him. Kenji was surprised by it.

Pirate Dragon comes back on the field after being destroyed. It might be his ability "soulguard". But I am in a very bad situation! Morihito thought.

"Armorknight Gargoyle, destroy him!" Kenji shouted. The heavily armoured gargoyle stabbed the tiny blue dragon with a drill. At that moment, Morihito understood how it felt when a monster was destroyed - they never come back.

But there was no time for him to digest what happened. Kenji attacked Morihito with the remaining monster. It charged its weapon in the purple beam. Then Morihito noticed and blocked the lasers.

'I cast! Green Dragon Shield! Morihito blocked Armorknight Bahamut's attack.

Morihito's field

[Life: 9/ Gauge: 4/ Hand: 6]

Item: None

(C: Pirate Dragon) (R: Red Dragon)

"Huff...huff... that was close." Morihito said with fast breathing.

There won't be time to think on the battlefield, and this phrase matches here.

"I guess it is my turn. I draw, charge and draw."

Morihito's field

[Life: 9/ Gauge: 5/ Hand: 7]

Item: None

(C: Pirate Dragon) (R: Red Dragon)

It is good that I didn't take much damage, but how am I able to defeat the huge monster in his centre? Oh right! He mentioned his monster has power, defence and critical! I guess Brave Fist, Red Dragon gave three damage to Kenji, it may be his critical. Assume that the red numbers and blue numbers are power and defence...I don't have any monster able to defeat him!

But what if...I can attack with one or more monsters?

"Hey idiot, are you done at daydreaming?" Kenji shouted.

"Fatty, why didn't you attack me with two monsters together in your last turn?" Morihito said.

"Who's fat?! My name is Kenji!! I don't need to attack a little fry like you with all my monsters!" Kenji was annoyed.

"Ha! I see! You can attack with as many monsters you want when fighting your target! Thank you, Kenji." Morihito said with excitement.

"Damn it! How dare you trick me, you idiot?" Kenji shouted at Morihito angrily.

"I call Magic Archer, Wind Dragon to the left!" Morihito commanded.

"He left his centre empty?" Xander observed the fight near the field.

"Alright, Magic Archer, Wind Dragon and Brave Fist, Red Dragon, attack Armorknight Bahamut together!" Morihito said.

They should be enough to defeat the centre.

"Wha-" Kenji was open-mouthed after seeing his trump card turned into ash.

"I cast Immense Pressure and Lord Aura Meditation. And I call Destructive Sky Subjugator, Tyrant Asura to the left!"

The monster in red skin owned a huge axe and a long spear in his upper hands, with a sword that had a similar appearance to a chainsaw and mace within his other two hands.

Here comes another huge and dangerous monster! Morihito thought.

(L: Wind Dragon) (C: Frost Dragon)

Armorknight Eagle tried to attack Silver Frost Dragon, Tech of Stars, but it failed. The white dragon used his shield to bounce him back.

Kenji seems bad-tempered about Eagle failing to attack Morihito. "How about this? Destructive Sky Subjugator, Tyrant Asura attacks that monster in the centre!'

The red giant landed his mace and broke the barrier. Then he slashed at Frost Dragon with his sword and cropped him off with an axe.

"Sorry I am no longer able to protect you..." The white dragon said softly.

"Thank you, Silver Frost Dragon...you did your best."

That's bad! I have too many spells on my hand but not the monsters! That means I might not able to survive my next turn! Kenji has almost no hand card left and he left his centre open, I should try to defeat both of his monsters. Or, should I just attack him directly? This is so hard to choose...

What is this? An item? No Release condition? And...why do I feel so nostalgic with this card?

"Release! The Light and Hope, Drago Blade!!"

There is a cyan aura on the blade, covering Morihito's body. Xander saw the weapon and his chin fell off.

My deck does not have such a powerful card! When did he put this card into the deck?

"No, my turn isn't over yet."

"How...? You don't have any cards to attack me!"

Morihito dropped one of his hand cards.

"Drago blade allows me to attack one more time when I drop a hand card. I think...I can still attack six more times."

"You're gonna be kidding me...SIX times?! What?!" Kenji said in shock.

"NOO! There is no way I can lose to a newbie like YOU!"

He looked at the life counter and empty hands with fear.

"DAMN IT!! You know you're gonna regret this!"

Morihito moved Drago blade on the VR-board and wielded his blade.

I don't know what the future is waiting for me...but with this...I feel like I can break through any challenge!

Morihito remembered something he could not tell.

"Take this! Ultimate Force, Infinite Drago SLASHHH!!!'

Morihito used the full force of his body and slashed through Kenji, then rushed behind him.

"AUGHHHHH!!!!!!!!"

[Game Winner: Morihito! Congratulations on my first written fight! 0u0]

Xander looked at Morihito with a jaw-dropped face.

This kid is totally out of my expectations! How incredible! But what was the force he used? Could it be...?

"I win...? I can't believe I just won!" Morihito said with his sparkling eyes.

"Bastard! You will pay back all these one day! Watch out for that!" Kenji hollered at Morihito and everyone in the mall stared at him.

"Oh...okay."

Morihito watched Kenji run away, but he was still focusing on the latest battle.

'Did I do well? Are we now buddies?' Morihito looked at Xander.

"You have proven well enough, young human, you are worthy to become my buddy. But first, answer my questions." Xander said seriously.

What's wrong? I have proved myself in a battle. But it seems he isn't so happy about it.

"Where did you get that force? There is no such card in the deck I gave you."

Is he referring to Drago Blade?

"What force?"

"That power, why is it in your hand?" Xander questioned closely and looked at Morihito seriously.

"I have no idea! But I feel it is something very important to me...I think it belongs to me."

Weird. Why can't I remember anything related to this?

"Maybe I am wrong." He turned around and sighed.

"So are you now my Buddy monster? Xander?"

"Please call me Ancient Force Protector Dragon, Xander."

"But that's too long! Don't you think so? Xander?"

"Call me what I told you so, stupid human!"

"What are you so mad about? Morihito, that's my name, too."

"I don't care what you said! Call me..." Suddenly. His whole body shrunk into a small size. In terms, it is called "chibi form".

"Wait. WHAT? Why do I become so tiny? Hey, you! Answer me!"

"Ah hahaha...!" Morihito never thought a huge dragon would care about such a small thing. Then he burst out laughing when Xander turned to the small dragon.

'Ughhhh!!' Xander shouted miserably.

Morihito returned home with Xander after school.

"So this is your house? How about the others..." Xander asked.

"My parents? They are not always at home. They always work in the laboratory and seldom return. They haven't been back for years, but I still receive money for living. Well, I have gotten used to that. Anyways Xander, what do you want for dinner?" Morihito asked.

"I am not hungry at all!" He said while his stomach shouted.

"I guess..." And he fell to the ground.

"I am...so hungry." Then his stomach shouted again.

A few moments later, Morihito put a bowl of ramen in front of Xander.

He called this thing 'ramen'? It smells so great! No, it must taste very bad! I will just take a bite.

"Mmmmm!"

This smell...such brilliant taste...and this warm feeling in my chest! The feeling of hope-filled inside of me!!

"What's wrong Xander? Did I add too much sauce?" Morihito questioned.

"MmmmmhHH!!"

The juicy favour in my mouth, this is so delightful! Incredible! Such a masterpiece can't be described by words!!

"Too salty?"

No Xander, what are you thinking? You can't trust this human yet!

"UMMMMMmhhHHH!!!" The noise got louder after he took another bite.

Is this...heaven? There is an angel around me...

Farewell, Xander... \(TvTll)/

"So it is too salty, right? Do you want me to add some water?"

"MMMMMHHHH!!!!!!!" He ate the whole bowl rapidly and drank all the soup in a second.

"Huh???"

"DELICIOUS!!! I want MORE! AAA...UMUMUMU"

Then he couldn't wait to eat Morihito's bowl which is filled with ramen. Well, it "was".

"My...ramen...!" (TATll)

Then the rest in the kitchen were eaten by Xander.

"No dinner..." Morihito said in a weak voice. (TT)

"Ah, I am so...full now..." and he yawned "...tired."

Xander closed his eyes and snored.

"Fine, I will go get some snacks for dinner." ;-;

He must be really tired.

A while later after Morihito finished the wash-up. Morihito saw Xander sleeping calmly and covered him with his jacket. He turned on his phone and started typing text:

"Hey, Mum and Dad. How have you been? I knew that you must be very busy and unable to read my message..."

Morihito was the only one texting in the group, but his parents never reply. The group shows all of Morihito's text.

"Guess what? I made a buddy today on the first day of my new school. He is a very huge monster! Irritable..."

Morihito looked at Xander snored and continued.

"...but he is adorable inside so don't worry. Many things happened today. Love you two. Please reply soon!"

Morihito closed the chat.

"Mum...dad...where are you? Why are you still not coming back?"


Chapter 1.5: Learning the Rules of Buddyfight! (Reboot Special)

I am Ancient Force Protector Dragon, Xander. A great warrior of the dragon race. In the past, I and the clan fought numerous evils to protect the world of monsters. And now, I am searching for a candidate from the human world to train with me...

Xander swallowed a piece of ham into his mouth and poured a bowl of miso soup in a flash.

"Burp..."

The human world is absolutely heaven! But is it time for me to start the training?

Whatever training needs energy. No energy means no training! And no food means no energy!

"Yum...Thanks for the meal!!" He shouted out loud from his heart purely.

"You're welcome. Would you like to try this as well? Although I don't usually make it." Morihito gave him a warm smile.

"This is my favourite." He said while placing it on Xander's plate from his fry pan.

"What is this? It is so soft and fluffy." Xander toyed with it with his fork.

"Well. We add a favour into by..."

Morihito spilt the syrup on it lightly. Lastly, he sliced a piece of butter and let it melt on the surface, mixing with the sweet taste.

"Here you go, pancakes!"

"Now it smells really good..." Xander had his saliva falling from the corners of his mouth without a pause.

Something in the bottom of my heart tells me that all my hard work was worth this! Xander picked up his fork like a weapon with dazzling eyes and threw the pancakes into his mouth without hesitation.

What a feast! How do humans make these? They don't even exist in our world!

"Delicious!!!"

This is somehow nostalgic. It is like a taste of my old homeland. We used to make the soft bread taste better by dripping liquid sugar.

This was when the chef accidentally overcooked the sugar a bit before the feast started...

...

I wonder how they're going.

Xander stared at the empty plate reflecting on himself.

"Xander, can you teach me how to play Buddyfight?" Morihito asked.

Hmmm, he seems to be thinking about something...

"Ancient Force Protector Dragon, Xander?"

"Ugh! How many times do I have to tell you how to call me..." Xander roared but the volume got softer after.

"Oh wait, human, you said it right this time."

"Heh. Gonna make sure you can hear it." Morihito scratched his head lightly.

"Did you just say you want to learn how to fight?"

What a great time for training! Xander thought and smiled.

"Well, do you mind if I have a lot to ask?" Morihito questioned.

"Bring it on."

Xander closed his eyes and nodded.

Is it about combating skills? How to develop your strength? How to train your sword-wielding?

"Can you please tell me what this means?"

Morihito showed a webpage about Buddyfight and pointed at a paragraph.

"uh...WHAT?!!" Xander had his eyes going off the boundary.

What is this?! This sentence, and this line too, are they even language?! Why are there so many unknown symbols?? How do they even understand these?

Ah, I almost forgot...monsters can't read their words. Although they can speak their language and communicate directly.

It was a blessing between humans and monsters to build relationships.

"I can't read these..." Xander answered honestly.

"Oh. Haha, sorry, I thought if monsters understand the language of humans, they can read the words too. Should I read them out?"

So he's trying to learn about Buddyfight, well then... Xander thought.

"How about you explain the rules of Buddyfight? So I will know how much you understand the game."

"Alright. Where should I begin?" Morihito nodded and took a deep breath.

"Perhaps starting with the winning condition?" Xander suggested. "What would cause the game to end?"

"A game ends when one of the players reaches 0 life points. It also determines which fighter will be the winner." Morihito said.

"That's correct. But there are other methods to win against the opponent too." Xander explained.

"Oh really? I am not sure about them." Morihito got more curious.

"If a player has zero cards in their deck, they will lose the game. There are also card effects like 'Lifelink Lose', that will immediately lead to losing. the fighter will be defeated if the conditions on the card aren't fulfilled. Both players can receive a draw if both of them reach 0 life points or 0 cards in their deck simultaneously. "

"Hmm...that's interesting. I never thought of them before. Heh, I wonder if a player can put 0 cards in their deck before the game starts and they immediately lose the game." Morihito chuckled.

"That's not possible. A deck must contain at least 50 cards, which does not include the flag card and the card in the buddy monster zone." Xander clarified.

"So those 50 cards must be non-special cards, making a deck total of a minimum of 52 cards. Is there a limit for how many cards can be put into a deck?" Morihito wondered.

"So far, there isn't."

"That sounds quite cheating to me...Ah yes, about the question I wanted to ask earlier, I wonder if I can put 12 copies of the same card into my deck? So I can draw them easily, right?"

"The answer is no, as you may only add 4 same copies of a card into your deck."

"I see. To make it fair for both players I guess." Morihito nodded.

It seems he has much more to learn. Reading by words can't give him much experience. Xander thought.

"Morihito, shall we have a Buddyfight match?"

"Eh?"

"So you'll learn faster." Xander placed the deck on the table and covered it with his hand. Then the deck was being duplicated miraculously after a dazzling light.

"There, take this." Xander said calmly while handing a deck over to Morihito.

"How did you do that?!!" Morihito stared at the deck with his chin hitting the floor and frowned. "Can you also duplicate other items?"

"Stupid human! I can't make it last forever, it will disappear when my magic runs out! Don't try to be greedy!" Xander fretted and words in his mouth burst like a storm.

"Sorry...I got too curious and overreacted." Morihito looked away and munched his lips lightly.

So there is no magic in the human world either. Maybe that's why I can't feel any mana around. Xander thought.

"Actually, it is fine. Now, shall we get started?" Xander asked.

Morihito switched his focus on Xander.

"Yeah, sure I guess." Morihito said.

Xander placed his deck on the table. "Firstly, we choose and put a 'Buddy Monster' card near the flag card in the middle, which is the same world as the Buddy you chose."

"Xander, can we use this setup?" Morihito took out a paper game board for Buddyfight, which is specifically for beginners and promotion. "I took this from the card shop after school."

"This isn't looking bad." Xander said.

"Without the help of a virtual reality system, we're gonna do this on our own." Morihito explained. "But the field is not much different."

"Right. Human, now we need to place our world flag and buddy monster in the specific zone with the cards facing down."

"I heard that we need to shuffle our deck before the fight. Else we can decide whatever sequence we want, that would be less fun. I think."

"Indeed. Now we need to draw 6 cards from the deck." Xander put them into his hands.

"And place 2 cards into the gauge zone facing down. Now we can begin!" Morihito continued. "We turn over the card in the world flag and buddy monster..."

"Raise the Flag!!" They said it together.

"Both of us fight for Dragon World." Morihito said. "Are there more worlds than Dragon World and Danger World?"

Xander explained. "Of course. There is Magic World which has a lot of magic and wizard types monsters, skilled sword fighters for Katana World, mythical monsters in Legend World, Ancient World, and many others too. Alright, how about you start your turn first?"

"Fine by me." Morihito smiled sincerely. "I think I have to draw first and put a card into the gauge zone."

"It is also called 'Charge'." Xander explained. "Now you may put any unwanted cards from your hand into the gauge zone and draw another."

Morihito's field

[Life: 10/ Gauge: 3/ Hand: 7]

Item: None

(No monsters on the field)

There are left, center and right positions for monster card placement. Usually, the monster in the centre can protect the fighter and prevent an attack of the opponent. For abbreviation, the writing style for fights will be also called "L", "C" and "R". "Life" means life points, and "Hand" means the cards in the fighter's hand.

There are a few types of cards in Buddyfight - Monsters, Spell, Item, Impact, and Impact Monster. Any type of monster, they have its size. A player can call up a maximum size 3 monster to their field.

Each card has different names and abilities. It all depends on how players use them in a fight.

When using a card, a player may need to pay the cost for the effects or during the summon. In most cases, the player uses "gauge" and "life" in exchange for abilities or calling a card to the field.

Morihito read the rules on the game board. "Let's see...now we are entering something called 'Main Phase'?"

"Indeed. The previous one was 'Start Phase'." Xander said. "Main phase is a period for you to prepare for attacking the opponent in 'Attack Phase'. There are a total of 4 phases in the game."

"Really? 4 phases?! I don't know the last one."

"It is called the 'Final phase'. This is when you can use an 'Impact' card to deal a great amount of damage or use a powerful effect."

"I wonder what they look like." Morihito pondered.

"Human, it is your turn now. You don't have to hold back."

"Ah yeah. I am overthinking things again, hah. I call Brave Fist, Red Dragon to the left."

Brave Fist, Red Dragon

Worlds: Dragon World

Type: Size 1 monster

Attributes: Red dragon, Force Dragon

Power: 6000 / Crit: 3 / Defense: 2000

[Call Cost] [Pay 1 gauge]

[Penetrate]

"Brave Fist, Red Dragon" is the name of the card. For each card, I will write details of their worlds, types, attributes, call cost, power, critical (crit), defense and specific abilities.

Attributes is a property to categorize the cards by a specific group.

Critical represents how much damage that card can deal to the opponent.

For example, in the case of Red Dragon we have:

-A Dragon World size 1 monster

-Its attributes labelling it with Red Dragon and Force Dragon.

-It has 6000 power, 3 critical and 2000 defense

-And you must pay 1 gauge before calling it to the field

"I also call Wind Dragon and Pirate Dragon to the centre and right. With Pirate Dragon's effects, I can gain 3 gauge."

Magic Archer, Wind Dragon

Type: Size 1 monster

Attributes: Green dragon, Force Dragon

Power: 4000 / Crit: 1 / Defense: 1000

[Call Cost] [Pay 1 gauge]

[Soulguard]

Morihito's field

[Life: 10/ Gauge: 4/ Hand: 4]

Item: None

(L: Red Dragon) (C: Pirate Dragon) (R: Wind Dragon)

"It's attack phase...now I can attack you directly with Red Dragon!" Morihito said and turned his card horizontally.

"Alright. I will take 3 damage from Red Dragon." Xander said.

Xander's field

[Life: 7/ Gauge: 2/ Hand: 6]

Item: None

(No monsters on the field)

"Now, I attack with Wind Dragon and..." Morihito murmured.

"Wait for a second, human, you can only attack once in your first turn!"

"What? I don't know that!"

"It is fine, you will get used to the rules soon."

"I think that's the end of my turn." Morihito said.

Xander's field

[Life: 7/ Gauge: 2/ Hand: 6]

Item: None

(No monsters on the field)

Xander charged and drew as Morihito did in the last turn.

"Watch closely." He said softly and placed various cards on the game board swiftly.

Amazing...it is like he already thought of strategy before my turn starts! Morihito was astonished.

Xander equipped his board sword. He summoned Red Dragon and Wind Dragon on the left and right respectively.

Xander's Great Broadsword

Worlds: Dragon World

Type: Item

Attributes: Force Dragon, weapon

Power: 6000 / Crit: 2

[Equip Cost] [Pay 1 life]

- This card on the field cannot be destroyed or returned to hand by your opponent's card effects.

- If you have a monster with "Xander" in its card name on your field, this card gets critical2 and power6000!

- If you have 10 life or more, for this turn, this card gets [Double Attack]!

Xander's field

[Life: 6/ Gauge: 1/ Hand: 4]

Item: Xander's Great Broadsword

(L: Red Dragon) (R: Wind Dragon)

"Xander, why didn't you call a monster in the centre to protect yourself?" Morihito questioned.

Xander explained. "If I call a monster in the centre, I won't be able to attack with my item."

"So a monster in the centre will block the fighter's attack and make the weapon useless." Morihito thought.

"Not all the cases. If the item specifically tells you to 'attack the centre even if you have a monster in your centre', both item and monster in the centre can attack. They even do a link attack (two of the cards attacking at the same time at one target)."

That could be a ranged item. Morihito thought.

"I attack Pirate Dragon with Red Dragon and Wind Dragon together. When Wind Dragon attacks, I draw one card because of Red Dragon's effect." Xander said rapidly.

Brave Fist, Red Dragon

-[Counter] [Act] Choose another Force Dragon on your field, for this turn when it attacks, you draw one card.

"Eh?! Uh, I use this card, green dragon shield!" Morihito couldn't react as quickly as Xander.

"Human, please read the card carefully!! How many times did I tell you?"

"Huh? Um...'You may only cast this card during...and if you do not have a monster in the centre.' Oh no! Since Pirate Dragon is in the middle, I won't be able to use this card!"

Green Dragon Shield

You may only cast this card during an attack on your opponent's turn and if you do not have a monster in the center.

[Counter] Nullify the attack and you gain 1 life.

"That's correct. Now for the second question. Will my attack be enough to destroy Pirate Dragon?" Xander questioned.

"I think it will. Because Pirate Dragon has less defence than Red Dragon and Wind Dragon's power. If the power of the attacking card exceeds or equals the card that is being attacked, that card will be destroyed." Morihito said.

Pirate Dragon's defense (1000) Red Dragon's Wind Dragon's power (60004000)

In addition to Wind Dragon's ability when doing a link attack, the total power of Xander's attack will be 15000.

"That's correct. Pirate Dragon has an ability that allows cards to avoid leaving the field after destruction. So you may keep it on the field for now."

"I see. That's how Pirate Dragon was 'revived' during my fight with Kenji." Morihito wondered.

"However, since Red Dragon has 'Penetrate' ability, it can directly give damage to the fighter once the card in the centre is destroyed. Wind Dragon will also deal 2 damage as Red Dragon gave 'Penetrate' effect to Wind Dragon this turn."

Brave Fist, Red Dragon

Worlds: Dragon World

Type: Size 1 monster

Attributes: Red dragon, Force Dragon

Power: 6000 / Crit: 3 / Defense: 2000

[Call Cost] [Pay 1 gauge]

-You may only call one Brave Fist, Red Dragon in your field.

-[Counter] [Act] Choose another Force Dragon on your field, for this turn when it attacks, you draw one card.

-When another Ancient Warrior or a Force Dragon enters your field, for this turn, it gets [Penetrate]

[Penetrate]

"So the soulguard won't have an obvious effect in blocking 'Penetrate'."

"You can say so. When Pirate Dragon is destroyed, I will get 1 life due to Wind Dragon's effects"

Magic Archer, Wind Dragon

Worlds: Dragon World, Magic World

Type: Size 1 monster

[Double Attack]

Xander's field

[Life: 7/ Gauge: 1/ Hand: 6]

Item: Xander's Great Broadsword

(L: Red Dragon) (R: Wind Dragon)

"Now, I link attack with Wind Dragon at Pirate Dragon again." Xander moved the cards from straight to horizontal.

"Okay...so now I put the Pirate Dragon in the drop zone, and I will receive 4 damage. My life point is close to zero right now." Morihito sighed lightly. "But I am not going to surrender."

"That's a good attitude." Xander smiled.

Morihito's field

[Counter] [Act] ???

[Double Attack] [Equipment Change]

Morihito placed a card in the item zone. Xander gazed at the card with stunning eyes.

Why is it here? No, how is this even possible? It appeared in his deck again?! Where did it come from-

Morihito's field

[Life: 2/ Gauge: 5/ Hand: 4]

Item: Drago Blade

(L: Red Dragon) (R: Wind Dragon)

"Can you use a spell card before the attack phase?" Morihito asked.

"Of...of course!" Xander answered with a slightly trembling voice.

"Then I will use this, 'Demon Lord's Roaring Dragon Blast'. The effects said...you can destroy all monsters on your opponent's field, and draw cards equal to the number of cards destroyed."

"I don't have any spell to counter it. So Red Dragon and Wind Dragon will leave my field." Xander explained.

Xander's field

[Life: 8/ Gauge: 1/ Hand: 6]

Item: Xander's Great Broadsword

(No monsters on the field)

"Great! Now I use a 'link attack' of Red Dragon and Wind Dragon to attack. And I can draw one card."

Morihito's field

[Life: 2/ Gauge: 5/ Hand: 6]

Item: Drago Blade

(L: Red Dragon) (R: Wind Dragon)

"Counter, Blue Dragon Shield! Now the link attack is nullified." Xander smirked.

P.S. "Counter" is a keyword that, when attached to an ability, allows you to use it during either player's turn on any phase, and in response to the opponent's actions and abilities as well. The difference between "Act" and "Counter" is that "Act" can only be used in the main phase.

"C'mon...I thought it would hit." Morihito looked a bit disappointed. "But I can attack with Wind Dragon again."

Morihito's field

[Life: 2/ Gauge: 5/ Hand: 7]

Item: Drago Blade

(L: Red Dragon) (R: Wind Dragon)

"Too bad, I got another card to counter." Xander giggled lightly. "I call Silver Frost Dragon, Tech of Stars to the centre. And it will take your attack."

Silver Frost Dragon, Tech of Stars

Worlds: Dragon World, Star Dragon World

Type: Size 1 monster

Attributes: White dragon, Force dragon

Power: 2000 / Crit: 2 / Defense: 6000

[Call Cost] Put the top card of your deck into this card's soul

-You can only call this card to the centre

-[Counter] when a force dragon on your field will be destroyed or you will be attacked, call this card from your hand and redirect the attack to this card.

[Soulguard]

Wind Dragon's attack is nullified due to his power being less than Frost Dragon's defense.

Xander took a card from the deck and placed it at the bottom of Frost Dragon. "Now, what will you do, human?" He asked, and the answer from Morihito surprised him.

"I will pay 2 gauge. For this turn, I can choose a monster and they cannot activate the 'Soulguard' ability. Meaning that monsters can be destroyed with one attack. I will choose Frost Dragon as the target." Morihito attacked with Drago Blade after.

"That was a good move." Xander smiled.

The Light and Hope, Drago Blade

-...

[Counter] [Act] "Full Power Slash!!" Choose a monster on your opponent's field. Then, you may pay 2 gauge. For this turn, the chosen monster cannot activate [Soulguard]. You may only use this ability once per turn.

"Now I discard one of my hand cards and..."

"And you can attack again." Xander finished Morihito's sentence.

"Yeah. Since I don't know whether the cards on my hand are enough to counter your attack in the next turn, I am going to discard all of them." Morihito explained while Xander broke out in a sweat.

No, I don't have enough spells to block him!

Xander calculated with his fingers.

Wait. Even if all my cards are spells, he is still going to win.

Xander took a sigh of relief. "This is a brilliant fight, human. You have won."

"Huh? But my attack hasn't finished yet." Morihito was confused.

"Have you noticed what happens if you attack seven more times?" Xander asked.

"Suppose you use 4 cards to block 4 times of my attack. And you will have 6 life points remaining...Oh, I know! My remaining three attacks can defeat you." Morihito said astonishingly.

"So in the end, no matter if you have spells to counter, you will still lose the fight?" Morihito asked.

"That's right." Xander nodded. "Congrats, human. No, I mean, Morihito. You even managed to defeat me before the Buddy call."

"Thanks!" Morihito grinned softly with gratefulness.

"Since you called my name in short form. Am I allowed to call you 'Xander' too?"

I guess calling each other's names in short form is humans culture huh? Xander thought.

"Yes. Now you can." Xander smiled. "I won't mind it anymore."

"Great! I am glad to be your buddy, Xander." Morihito replied cheerfully.

"Same here." And Xander did the same.

Hey, readers. I am here to tell you straightforwardly and aggressively, that I am going to write and spend years writing this fiction, which will be a long journey.
