Novel has been tasked with retrieving the character of Jennifer from My Lie as a Teenaged Robot. Jennifer is the titled character, a robot built to live an abnormal life as a regular teenager, while also facing larger-than-life threats.

Novel is already engaging her in a duel.

Novel 3700LP

VS

Jennifer 4000LP

Jennifer already controls a monster, Robolady [LV 4 Earth Machine DEF 900], as well as a continuous trap card, Cyber Summon Blaster. As long as she controls it, Novel will take 300 points of damage every time she special summons a machine monster.

It's the middle of Novel's turn. He only controls Neo the Magic Swordsman [LV 4 Light Spellcaster ATK 1700]. He has just wrapped up his battle phase. "I'll end my turn with that."

"My go! Draw!" Jennifer's duel disk is built into her arm. "I activate the spell card, Power Bond! I can fusion summon a machine monster. Using Robolady on my field with the Roboyarou in my hand to fusion summon Super Roboyarou!" Jennifer summons one half of her ace strategy [LV 6 Earth Machine Fusion ATK 1200] "Because I special summoned another machine monster, you get hit by my trap card again!" Jennifer's Summon Blaster activates, hitting Novel with another piece of damage.

[Novel LP 3400]

Jennifer still has more to her card effects, "The monster summoned by Power Bond has its attack points doubled." Super Roboyarou's armour brightens, becoming radiant with the power increase.

[Super Roboyarou ATK 2400]

"Battle! Super Roboyarou will attack Neo the Magic Swordsman!" Jennifer has a surprising amount of excitement in their voice as they call their attack. "When attacking a monster, Super Roboyarou gains another 1000 attack points."

[Super Roboyarou ATK 3400]

Jennifer's monster slashes Neo across the chest, breaking through the sword. Neo explodes, the shockwaves push Novel back as he receives battle damage. His life points have been forced down to less than half.

[Novel LP 1700]

"I end my turn. However, now I have to face the aftermath of my spell card. During the end phase, I take damage equal to my monster's original attack points. But it was worth the price."

[Jennifer LP 2800]

Novel wipes his mouth before getting back up. He laments his current situation. "It appears this character is the toughest duelist I have ever faced in my life." He draws for his turn. "That said, I can't afford to lose. Not just for my pride. But for my mission."

Novel looks over the five cards in his hand. With limited options to deal with Jennifer's overpowered monster, he goes on the defensive. "I summon Mysical Elf in defence mode, and then play one card face down to call it a turn." [LV4 Light Spellcaster DEF 2000] "It's your turn."

"My go again, draw!" Jennifer smiles, seeing herself already the winner. "I activate the effect of my Super Roboyarou! By returning him to the deck, I can special summon his counterpart, Supe Robolady!" Jennifer returns her navy blue cyber warrior and replaces them with a rose pink cyber warrior lady. [LV 6 Earth Machine ATK 1200] "And again, you take another 300 damage!" Her Cyber Summon Blaster activates. Taking aim at Novel, he gets slammed with another 300 damage.

[Novel LP 1400]

"I activate the continuous spell card, Clockwork Night. While this card is face up on the field, all monsters on the field become machine types." Novel is forced to watch as his elf becomes mechanical, her skin is turned to metal. "And that's not all. All machine monsters you control lose 500 attack and defence, while mine gain it instead."

[Super Robolady ATK 1700]

[Mystical Elf DEF 1500]

"Finally, I equip Super Robolady with the spell card, Shooting Star Bow - Ceal. While equipped with this card, Robolady loses 1000 attack points, but in return, she can attack your life points directly." Jennifer's monster equips itself with a magic bow. "One more thing. When Super Robolady attacks my opponent directly, she gains 1000 attack points, so it doesn't matter."

[Super Robolady ATK 700]

"Battle! Super Robolady will attack your life points directly, and end this duel!" Jennifer's monster leaps into the air and takes aim with their new bow. Their attack points increase as they attack, however, Novel's body glows as well. Jennifer has noticed the trap card. Novel drops to his knees after taking the hit from the bow.

[Super Robolady ATK 1700]

[Novel LP 600]

"Gift of the Mystical Elf. It increases my life points for every monster on the field. I was saving it for more monsters, but I didn't have a choice."

"Not bad. I guess I'll just have to finish you off next turn. Robolady can still attack you directly. And that's just her. I could just brutal force with Yarou again. I end my turn."

Novel draws his last card and hopes for the best. Turning it over, he smiles. "The heart of the cards has not forsaken me."

Jennifer is confused by what Novel just said. "What was that?"

"I said you're about to lose. First I use the spell card Twister! By paying 500 life points I can destroy your Clockwork Nights." Novel uses his spell card to remove Jennifer's card from the field. Without it, all monsters are reverted back to their original types, and stats.

[Novel LP 100]

[Super Robolady ATK 1200]

[Mystical Elf DEF 2000]

"I activate the spell card, Magical Dimension. While I have a Spellcaster on the field, I can tribute a monster to summon another Spellcaster from my hand. I tribute Mysical Elf to summon Cosmo Queen from my hand." [LV 8 Dark Spellcaster ATK 2900] "And then, I can destroy a monster on your field." Novel's spell card destroys Jennifer's last monster, leaving her defenceless.

"Battle! Cosmo Queen attack Jennifer directly, and end this duel!" Using her magic of space, Cosmo Queen creates an orb of pure science between her hands. She unleashes it like a ray of magic. Jennifer takes the attack head-on, knocking her onto her back.

[Jennifer LP 0]

Her body sparks with her limps glitching out. Novel walks over to her body as a faint dark mist starts to seep through her body. He is quick to pull a blank card from his pocket and capture her within it.

"The darkness is spreading. I don't know how much more we can take," he pockets the card with her in it and walks away.

A hole in the world appears in front of him, and he steps inside. Walking through the portal, he enters another world on the opposite side. He enters a room outside of space and time, with a large computer monitor and display. With the Jennifer card, he adds it to a collection of souls on a display case. He sets it down beside the Spongebob and Danny Phantom cards.

"This is getting too much now. We're already at 50 cards, and it doesn't seem to be slowing down. And all while our numbers are dwindling by the day. But once we've caught them all. They can be purified, and released again. And then it can all be over." Novel slumps back into a chair in the room. Closing his eyes, he lets himself drift off to sleep while watching the display of souls.
