The monster that had just been summoned was instantly sent to the graveyard.
A simple yet practical trap card, like a pitfall.
In this era where monsters are not very resistant and decks are not very fancy.
It was exceptionally useful.
Looking at his hand.
The bald man's face turned ashen, but he was helpless.
“My… turn ends.”
Jaden Yuki smiled as he picked up the top card of his deck.
He was clearly a very cute boy.
But for some reason, his smile was full of cunning.
“Summon, 【Elemental Hero - Blazeman】.”
Placing the card he had just drawn into his monster zone, Jaden Yuki revealed a mischievous smile.
“So, since you have nothing on the field, I’m going to attack.”
“Uh…” The bald man's face changed.
Before he could say anything, he saw a flash of orange light in the boy’s eyes.
“Two thousand two hundred points of damage, take it!”
Clank.
His body shook.
As if he was in a real duel.
The bald man could clearly feel the pressure in his mind.
The numbers on the scoreboard plummeted.
His 4000 life points dropped instantly to 1800 points.
However, seeing Jaden Yuki’s harmless smile, everyone felt a chill.
Cunning!
This kid, not even a little bit like a child his age!
“I… my turn… summon 【Earthbound Immortal】 in defense position!”
【Earthbound Immortal】
【4 Stars】
【ATK: 500, DEF: 2000】
If attack doesn’t work, then just defend it.
This kid still has three cards on the field.
Surely they can’t all be trap cards like Pitfall?
A drop of cold sweat trickled down the bald man’s shiny head.
If that was the case.
How dark did this kid’s heart have to be.
“Hee hee.”
Jaden Yuki laughed.
Seeing the boy’s smile, the bald man almost cried.
“Activate trap card, 【Crossbow Squad】.”
Jaden Yuki calmly flipped over a trap card on the field.
He said innocently, “Send one monster on your field to the graveyard, destroy one card on your field.”
“I send Winged Kuriboh to the graveyard, destroy your Earthbound Immortal.”
“What?!”
Watching his 【Earthbound Immortal】 be sent to the graveyard, the bald man snapped.
“You little punk! Don’t you use a Hero Deck!” He slammed his fist on the table and stood up.
“Hero Deck, yes.”
Jaden Yuki smiled, “But who said Hero Decks can’t use heavy traps?”
Ah…
That makes sense.
But how sneaky of a Hero is that?
Shouldn't Heroes always face their opponents head-on and fight honourably?
“You’ve run out of moves, right? My turn then?”
Jaden Yuki drew a card, then smiled slightly.
“The card I drew is 【Elemental Hero - Sparkman】, attack power 1600. Combined with the attack power of Blazeman on the field, it’s 2800 points.”
“Your life points are 1800.”
“Do you want to continue?”
“You…” The bald man's face turned beet red.
He lost…
He was defeated by a little kid in two turns?
“So, please hand over ‘Call of the Haunted’ as per our deal, Mr. Bald Man.”
Jaden Yuki extended his hand, smiling.
“Damn it! I’m only twenty-three this year! Who’s the old man!”
He threw ‘Call of the Haunted’ to Jaden Yuki and slunk away, surrounded by the laughter of those watching.
Wow, he’s only twenty-three looking like that.
I thought he was forty-three…
Jaden Yuki shook his head, and the system’s voice echoed in his ears.
【Congratulations, host, on winning a normal duel】
【Duel experience earned: 10】
【Duel points earned: 10】
【Current Ability: King’s Power LV.1 (10/500)】
Only ten points…
Jaden Yuki shook his head, then stood up and looked around.
“So, I’ll use this Call of the Haunted as a stake. Does anyone else want to challenge me?”
As soon as the words left his lips.
The onlookers exchanged confused glances.
“I’ll take you on!”
“I’ll give it a try too, let me see how good this little punk is.”
“I’ve never seen a kid like this before, I have to give it a shot!”
Suddenly, many duelists became interested.
They all wanted to spar with Jaden.
Heavy Trap Hero.
It was the first time they’d ever heard of such a thing.
“Well, everyone line up, one at a time.”
Jaden Yuki sat at the table with a smile, waiting for the challengers.
In his eyes.
These guys were just a bunch of random monsters lining up to give him experience and points.
He was going to earn a fortune today.
