Lo Fang: I summon Lang Ling - Lord of The Night!
Lo fang's duel disk turned black as A thick fog shrouded the arena. It mimicked the great fogs of mid-forests of sichuan. It was holographic but sill gave everyone the need to cough and slick up.
In the inky blackness of the fog lay a savage werewolf. His teeth, eerily incandescent, emitted a strange blue glow and were as sharp as a fine diamond sword. His skin was mostly scar tissue and he shivered in the early fall breeze. What fur there had been was tufty and thin, providing no protection to the elements at all. On his torso and face were the symbols of the great religion of the middle kingdom. Then came movement from the dwelling, his wait was almost over. For such a large beast he moved with surprising stealth and sexy body.
Lang Ling - Lord of the Night
Level 8
Dark/Beast
Atk 2800 Def 2000
Reishi: That Monster is…
She gaped at the monster. She was both astonished and agape with fear.
Lo fang: Terrifying right? Does it make you wet your dirty panties?
Reishi: No! Jeez why are you so disgusting?
Lo Fang: Me, Disgusting? I'm not the one who hangs out with a masochistic pervert who begs her to punish her!
Reishi: I-I…!
Lo fang kind of had a point that reishi couldn't refute.
Reishi: B-But wait! How could you summon that? You didn't tribute or anything!
Reishi asked pointing at her. Lo fang brushed aside her hair in arrogance and scoffed at reishi's inferior attitude and question.
Lo fang: You see where her special effect comes in!
Reishi: Nani?
Lo Fang: By shuffling in 3 beast type monsters I can summon from my magnificent wolf from my hand.
Lo Fang: Not only that! but all of your monsters have their effects Negated!
She Explained and declared.
Lo fang: 咆哮！我強大的野獸和他媽的瘋狂！
As if on command the Beast roared fiercely at reishi's monsters. Causing them all turn fall down and turn gray which symbolized The Lost of their effects. It didn't mean anything for Her Lazelle, queen of beasts because it was a normal monster and had no effect regardless. But for her Nutcracker militia….
Reishi: (Crap…!)
It meant that The monster could now be destroyed by battle.
,Evermore it wouldn't have mattered as the difference between the two monsters attack was 1500 and would finish Reishi off regardless of The Nutcracker's own Ability.
Lo Fang: I've Had enough of you and You're apostasy! It's time for your "Punishment!
Reishi: *Gulp*
Lo Fang: Lang Ling! Attack her Toy militia! Bite of Taoism!
Scufling it's feet like a horse, The Wolf of the promised land lunged/charged itself at reishi's childish militia. It's beautiful and long claws screeched the ground Showing brightly sparks that followed halfway to her monster.
it all seemed to happen at once and reishi didn't know what to do…
She froze in place as the wolf charged towards her monster…..
Reishi: (I can't lose Now after I had changed my mind…!)
She thought as she closed her eyes.
Fear and Depression had gripped her heart as making her think irrationally, Causing her to forget all her options… Could something or anything be done.
…..
...
...
*SNARL*
*AWOOOOO*
Sounds of Beasts Fighting and crying hit across the arena as it was clear that Something off had happened
Reishi LP: 300
Reishi opened her eyes and much to her surprise, she was still in the game, although at a critically low life point matter.
Lifting Up her head she saw that one of her face downs had been activated and was now shining brightly.
It was the card - "Attack Redirection Lights."
It was a card reishi has set two turns ago but had completely forgot about due to the heat in the moment.
As the card states in its name it redirects an attack to another monster, in this case it was reishi's Lazelle, queen of mythical beasts.
Reishi: Huh?
Lo fang: ...!
lo fang seemed to taken aback from the sequence of actions that just transpired, but not too much.
Lo fang: I shouldve known that you would have one more trick up your sleeve! Like the muskrat you are…
Reishi: …
Lo fang: Aiya! You keep getting luckier and Luckier. But one of these turns, Your luck will run out!
She threatened as she ended her turn with those words.
Reishi Didn't care as she was more focused on what Just Happened...
She didn't command that trap card to be activated... And her hand didn't slip by accident…
Rx-5: Please Begin Your turn.
The Rx-5 almost on Que advised her to start her turn.
Reishi: …
She ignored the plea of the Rx-5. Just kept Staring
Rx-5: Please begin your turn.
Reishi: …
Once again she ignored the almost-order of the Rx-5.
Rx-5: Reishi, Begin your turn.
Reishi: ...!
Almost like a jolt from an electric fence. What the machine said startled her an her up from her daze.
Reishi: Did The Duel disk just call me reishi?
She asked to herself.
Almost magically The machine answered her back.
RX-5: Yes. Humans seem to respond better, when you refer to them by name, No?
Reishi: …! It responded!
She exclaimed.
RX -5: Not "it". "I."
It responded.
Reishi: (No way.)
She had thought that it was a just a simpler machine that advised the duelist on certain actions. But instead it seemed like a machine with actual intelligence and a self conscious will.
She had to confirm for herself, afterall it did seem incredible and almost fantasical.!?
Reishi: "I?" So you recognize yourself as an individual?
RX-5: Yes.
Reishi: …..
She thought about it for a few seconds. She Realized that it was no ordinary machine and asked:
Reishi: Are you an AI?
RX-5: Artificial Intelligence?Yes. I was built by lady shima to assist in duels, deck building and overall strategy.
Reishi: Shima built you?
RX-5: She prefers to go by by lady Shima, but yes I was built by her magnificence.
Reishi: Incredible…. I always knew Shima was good was technology, But not smart enough to build an AI….
RX-5: Lady Shima is highly Innovative. Please do not underscore her Intelligence.
Reishi: I see she didn't programmed modesty into you….
RX-5: Pardon?
Reishi: N-Nothing.
Then she realized something.
Reishi: were You the one who activated my trap?
Rx-5: You froze. So I decided to take the initiative.
It replied.
Reishi sighed but was grateful at the machine's 'initiative'. Afterall she mightve have been dead if not for it.
Lo fang: Hey! Are you done talking to yourself? Some of us want to end this already!
Reishi: S-Sorry.
With that ,She began her turn,
Looking down at RX-5 she thought to herself:
Reishi: (Free will and decisive thinking…. Shima, you truly are incredible…)
-And drew her card.
Reishi: (Hmmm…..)
She looked at her hand and the field. With Only 3 cards in her hand and 1 monster and facedown on her side.
Meanwhile Lo fang Had a single monster with 2800 ATK on the field which could destroy her at any moment it's eyes glared at her.
Reishi: eek!
She sharply looked away from the terrifying beast.
Then she turned her attention to lo fang's other cards on the field….
Or lack thereof. Lang ling was her only card on the field and it wasn't backed up by anything.
-thats when it hit Reishi….
Reishi: Lo Fang has barely activated any spells or traps this entire duel!
She said to herself.
Lo fang had only activated The trap card 'Acid Trap Hole' to destroys one of reishi's set Monsters and that was it. She hadn't activated any spells and that was just strange.
Reishi: Thats odd. Why would she do that.
RX-5: Perhaps I could explain?
Reishi: huh?
RX-5: Lo fang and her School follow Taoism - An east asian religion.
It paused for a second
Reishi: I could've told you that-
RX-5: Let me finish.
Reishi: Ok.
RX-5: Many east asian Religions follow the main ideas of Chassity, Reliance and Self control. This means not consuming or doing anything extra,Frivolous or unnecessary to one's own survival. This philosophy liking applies to their dueling style as well. Spells and traps are Wonderful. But are by no means necessary to making a strategy or winning.
Like an encyclopedia The RX-5 Read out it's analysis and opinion on The matter. It enlightened reishi to a new prospect of the duel.
Reishi: Interesting.. I wonder if theirs a way to use that to my advantage…
She thought.
Reishi: Well thanks for the info.
RX-5: Proud to be of service.
Now reishi acted on Instinct and really
Began.
Reishi: I'll use my last Facedown! A quick play spell - Options of The Continuum!
Lo Fang: ugh.
Reishi: This card has Three options, And I can choose to activate!
She explained
The three options were in decreasing order:
1 card and than discard 2.
Life points equal to a monster's atk in your own graveyard.
An 'Option Huntress' monster from your deck.
Reishi considered her voluptuous options and chose the one that suited her situation best.
Reishi: I'll chose the second option. Meaning I'll Lp equal to-
Lo fang: Ya ya. I read the card. You don't need to explain every card's effect to me!
Reishi: Sorry. I think It runs in the family. Teehee.
With that being said, She of course choose to gain LP equal to that of her most powerful monster in the cemetery - Lazelle, Queen of mythical beasts.
Reishi Lp: 2500
She regained 2200 life and wasn't at the death's door anymore.
Reishi: Then, I'll turn Nutcracker Militia to defense Mode!
The Nutcrackers Turned their rifles to the side in An T posing position. With their effects gone they were practically sitting ducks.
Reishi: Finally, I'll Summon Dolente dog In defense mode!
She exclaimed.
*Woof*
The Charismatic and Cute dog came onto the field, Wooing over the audience who awed at it's cuteness compared to lo fang's rigorous Wolf.
Dolente Dog
Level 1
Earth/Music
Atk 300 Def 300.
Reishi: Thats the end for my turn!
She declared and swept aside her hair in front of hair and looked dead on at lo fang.
Finally It was the end of her despondent turn. She Tensed up as she prepared for lo fang to open her fangs and strike an onslaught at her.
But as long as she had Hope… She could withstand it.
