The villainous young master just wants to live a Buddhist-like life.

　The "Insect Demon Nest" is an insect demon's lair that is half embedded underground. Its structure is similar to a honeycomb, with interconnected passageways.

　The complete "Insect Nest" is about twenty or thirty meters in diameter. However, the "Insect Nest" that Charles urgently summoned was only half of it, with the other half attached to the duel field.

　From this perspective, the entrance to the nest is actually quite small, not large enough for a person to walk upright.

　This nest structure is not for hiding; its main function should be to enhance the "Insect Demon," or perhaps it has other additional effects.

　The Blue-Eyes White Dragon shattered a small portion of the Insect Demon Nest with its final claw strike, then exited the [Strong! Invincible! Strongest!] state.

　It was hit by all of the "Bee Witch's" ultimate attacks, and once it exited the state of "Strong! Invincible! Strongest!", it fell into a near-death state.

　Furthermore, since the "Hall of Light" was not released before, it could not be reborn in the form of a spirit.

　Dark ordered her to rest aside, and then let "Ladymon" continue its attack on the "Insect Nest".

　Whatever use the "Insect Nest" may be, it can be destroyed completely.

　Moreover, Charles is also hiding in the demon's lair, and we must eventually force him out. As for the "Insect Demons"...

　Since it chose to plunge into the fairy mist, it was destined to die inside. "Elysium? Misty Field" grants "Priestmon" the effect of "Charming Body".

　After the "Insect Demon" came into contact with it, it was immediately charmed by the "Priest Beast" and was about to be killed.

　Also at this moment.

　Suddenly, Dark saw a dark shadow blocking the light in one of the caves of the "Insect Demon Nest". The next second, a new Insect Demon flew out from it!

　Unlike the "Insect Demon," "Bee Demon," and "Ant Demon," this Insect Demon had a rather strange appearance. It had butterfly wings on its back, but its body resembled that of a locust, as if two Insect Demons had been fused together, and it was only at the six-star level.

　As this thought crossed his mind, Dark suddenly noticed that the light in more of the nest entrances was blocked.

　Immediately afterwards, a total of six six-star insect demons emerged from them.

　These six six-star insectoids are all fusion creations, resembling the Frankenstein's monsters made by necromancers.

　Along with them appeared a black, deep red poisonous fog.

　Dark remained vigilant as LadyDevimon suddenly let out a shriek and unleashed its ultimate attack, "Dark Wave."

　Immediately, fire bats with deep purple vortexes materialized around him and pounced on the six insect demons.

　Those six insect demons were only six-star; how could they withstand the "Dark Wave" of "Demon"?

　Hearing the insect demon, all of them were in a hurry, and the mother team was at the same time.

　Dark heard the news of the "Insect Demon's" death. The dueling arena fell silent instantly. But this silence didn't last long.

　Suddenly, a pillar of black light shot straight into the sky from the "Insect Demon's Nest".

　Upon seeing the black pillar of light illuminate, Dark immediately ordered the "Priest Beast" to summon a three-star shikigami, using that shikigami and the "Priest Beast" itself as offerings to initiate a sacrificial summoning.

　Among the cards in his hand was "Thunder Cloud"!

　The "Priest Beast" can carry up to three six-star shikigami. However, due to its use as a sacrifice, one of them was replaced with a three-star shikigami, and it has indeed worked its magic.

　Otherwise, Dark would have to risk sacrificing the dying "Blue-Eyed Girl" as a sacrifice, which would have a 50% chance of failure.

　But we are still within the safety zone.

　Dark summoned "Thundercloud" for the second time in a duel, displaying effortless skill. Raymond's voice, brimming with surprise, emanated from the "Thundercloud" spell card.

　As the sacrificial summoning circle appeared.

　Thunderclouds rolled across the night sky, accompanied by flashes of lightning and thunder.

　It seemed to dispel some of the dark aura that had surged from the black pillar of light.

　Dark did not approach the "Insect Nest" without authorization, and even the "Demon" retreated under his orders.

　He gave the "LadyBeast" a defensive command and then carefully summoned new magic cards.

　"In the name of Darkdemon, I summon the magic—[Single Sword Sheath (Weapon Form)]!"

　The [Single Sword Sheath] is still considered a top-tier weapon.

　After summoning it, Dark grasped the sword hilt and gently swung it, immediately feeling power flowing into his body.

　He has now fully unleashed the power of this "holy sword".

　However, at this point, the "Holy Sword" can only be attached to the "Life Card".

　A "Life Card" with 8,000 life points belongs to the third tier, and its quality is further classified into star levels.

　Dark's "Character Card" is currently at the eight-star level. When using "Single Sword Sheath," it provides him with an attack bonus of 2,400 points.

　The subsequent "Holy", "Holy Sword", "Combo Slash", and "Sword Dance" can also unleash their maximum power.

　The "Single Sword Sheath" is a holy sword, extremely effective against insect demons. With this sword in hand, he would have the power to retaliate.

　This is something I learned from Will Smith, the actor who played "Titan Whale".

　With skillful use of weapons and adept movement, duelists can also engage in combat.

　Of course, this was only for precautionary purposes; he wouldn't easily engage in battle. And only after everything was prepared...

　He then saw an even darker shadow emerge from the black pillar of light. The shadow was humanoid, but had four arms.

　You can vaguely see that it has two pairs of wings on its back, which should be insect wings.

　Recalling the stitched-up insect demon that had just emerged from the "Insect Demon Nest," Dark immediately guessed that the one within the black pillar of light might be a twelve-star insect demon formed by the fusion of two nine-star insect demons.

　The thought had barely crossed his mind when a thunderous roar echoed through the stadium, interrupting his train of thought.

　"Thundercloud," wielding "lightning," flew out from the sacrificial summoning circle. Without needing a command, it slammed the "lightning" in its hand into the black pillar of light without hesitation.

　That was a really cool move, but it was actually just a "lightning strike".

　A bolt of lightning suddenly shot out from the thunderclouds and struck the black pillar of light. But a sharp insect chirping suddenly came from within the black pillar of light, and the "lightning strike" vanished in mid-air.

　“Demon-Slaying Blade!” Dark whispered.

　"Demon-Slaying Blade" can break spells, and "Lightning Strike" is also a spell. However, "Thunder Cloud" is a "God Card," belonging to the sixth tier.

　The "Demon-Slaying Blade" can at most flatten one step, and that's only one step below the fifth step.

　But now that "Demon-Slaying Blade" has broken through "Lightning Strike," which can only mean one thing.

　—The insect demon within that black pillar of light is also at the sixth tier! "This is bad."

　A sense of foreboding rose in Dark's heart. He suspected that Charles's sudden increase in power was related to God. Therefore, it was quite normal for him to possess the [God Card].

　Therefore, I was mentally prepared before the duel even began.

　However, if the "God's Card" also has a finishing move like the "Demon-Slaying Blade," then the "Thundercloud," which unleashes its full magical power, will likely only be able to lie down and wait to be slaughtered.

　Both are "God Cards" and have the same rank. The concept of "restraint" will then be brought back to the forefront.

　"Thundercloud" is undoubtedly completely countered by "Demon-Slaying Blade".

　Unless it can hold out for ninety seconds, allowing the "Heart of Thor" to reach one hundred percent, thus transforming into the "Spirit Beast Form"!

　Although Dark had never seen the "Spirit Beast Form" of "Thundercloud," based on the limited information he shared, the "Spirit Beast Form" of "Thundercloud" is enhanced in both attack and defense, and is very likely to gain melee combat capabilities.

　Instead of being like the "Thundercloud" in its transformed form, which has an attack power of 8500 but only crackles and sparks electricity!

　Even Pikachu has the amazing move "Iron Tail"!

　"Di."

　A projection of a magic card flashed by in the corner of my field of vision.

　As Dak pondered, a thought suddenly came to mind, and he immediately transmitted his voice, "Thundercloud."

　"Thundercloud" nodded slightly and immediately released "Thunderstorm".

　It raised its right hand, palm facing up, and a beam of electricity gathered and shot towards the sky.

　The bolt of electricity disappeared into the thundercloud in the blink of an eye, the roar grew louder, the dark clouds pressed down, lightning leaped, and a storm howled.

　But at the same time.

　The insect demon within the black pillar of light stirred!

　Its speed was as fast as lightning; it disappeared from the pillar of light in an instant and appeared right in front of the "thundercloud".

　In a panic, "Thundercloud" suddenly raised its hand and pointed, and a loud bang was heard. Countless bolts of lightning crashed down, threatening to engulf the insect demon.

　But when the insect demon raised its hand, a jet-black arc of light appeared and instantly stretched out, as if tearing through space, instantly extinguishing the thunderstorm!

　This "Demon-Slaying Blade" is clearly superior to the "Insect Demon"! Taking advantage of this opportunity, "Thunder Cloud" retreated on a cloud.

　Then a "lightning strike" was released, and the insect demon raised its hand and waved again—this time it used a different hand!

　"Gan!"

　Dark, observing from below, immediately realized the problem. "Demon-Slaying Blade" did indeed have a cooldown.

　But this insect demon can release the "Demon-Slaying Blade" with one hand, and has this ability in both hands.

　The "Thundercloud" was already countered by it, and now it was no match for it. But Dark had originally intended for the "Thundercloud" to unleash the "Thunderstorm" on the "Insect Nest," but who would have thought that the Thunder God's mental fortitude was so poor.

　"No, I should have noticed sooner. His mental fortitude is indeed very poor." "I suspect you're talking badly about me!"

　“Ha, you found out.” Dark made no attempt to hide it.

　Although "Thundercloud" is not good at close combat, it is fast enough to hold out for a while.

　But what Dark was more worried about was that Charles was using the insect demon to attack him.

　Judging from the speed the insect demon was displaying, Dark knew he would have a hard time escaping. Therefore, after careful consideration, he still activated the (Intermittent Blink Spell).

　He then stepped into one of the spatial singularities and was teleported directly to the "Mist Field" with "Ladymon" to ensure their safety.

　And then.

　He drew his next magic card from his hand—"Agumon"! A short while later...

　"Black MetalGreymon" reappears on the battlefield

　"BlackMechanyGreymon, use the Giga Destroyer!" Without hesitation, Dark gave the order.

　The target of the "Giga Destruction Cannon" remains the "Insect Nest".

　"BlackMechanyGreymon" leaped out of the fairy mist, opened its chest hatch in mid-air, and launched missiles.

　Two shark-head missiles were launched simultaneously.

　This time, after tracing an arc, it was finally ready to hit the "Insect Demon Nest".

　"Boom!"

　Two enormous mushroom clouds rose instantly.

　The "Insect Nest" was buried in dust.

　But Dark did not stop; instead, it continued to issue commands to BlackMetalGreymon to unleash more special attacks.

　Upon receiving the command, "BlackMechanyTyrannomon" immediately accelerated and unleashed "Mega Impact," crashing into the location of "Insect Nest" in one go.

　With a loud bang, Dark knew that the "Insect Nest" had not been completely destroyed by the "Giga Destruction Cannon".

　How could a bug hive capable of hatching "gods" be so easily destroyed?

　"Gigastorm!"

　Another command was issued.

　The "BlackMechanyTyrannomon" released a high-temperature energy wave at point-blank range, finally inflicting a devastating blow on the "Insect Nest".

　However, just as the previous black beam of light disappeared, another black beam of light shot into the sky.

　That was the last strength of the "Insect Demon Nest".

　Seemingly due to insufficient power accumulation, the black of the pillar of light lightened, and the shadows of two insect demons could be faintly seen rising from below into the air, before merging within the pillar of light.

　"It really is a fusion!"

　The "Insect Demon Nest" can not only fuse two Insect Demons into one, but also endow them with divinity.

　—It is also possible that the divinity was not bestowed by the "Insect Demon Nest".

　But after seeing the first insect demon, Dark quickly sensed a similar aura from the second insect demon.

　"It's not a card of the gods, but it has a sixth-tier rank!"

　Fusion in this world does not require Fusion Monster Cards; all that is needed is Fusion Materials and Fusion Cards.

　Therefore, neither of those two insect demons possessed a true form, the "God Card".
