After getting ready for the day, I made my way towards a clearing to continue practicing my gravity manipulation by lifting heavy rocks. i could lift the smaller ones about five feet off the ground and i could hold them there for about 10 minutes before i started to feel a little tired. "You are doing well for just learning how to use your abilities yesterday," Queen said as she watched me practice. After another hour of practicing my other magic i made my way towards the slifer dorm.
"After you get used to your gravity manipulation, we will move on to the next lesson," Queen said as we were walking down the path to the dorms. "So what will the next lesson be?" I asked, "Your next lesson will be manifesting your spirit's body over your own; this will strengthen your abilities and grant you different utility based on what you manifest. For example, you could manifest your dragon's wings to gain the ability to fly, or you could manifest metallic scales to protect yourself from attacks by other spirits. As we arrived at the dorm, she said, "That sounds like it will be useful later when I go to the next spirit world."
Arriving at the dorms, I walk up, and I see the professor doing some stretches outside. "Good morning, Professor Baner. "How are you doing today?" i asked as i walked up to him. "Oh, good morning, Jason. I am doing quite well, thank you for asking. But what brings you all the way out here?" he said while rolling up his yoga mat. "I'm here to hang out with jaden and i wanted to ask you if you will teach me some more alchemy if you have the spare time," i said
"Oh, Jaden should be awake soon, and it would be no problem for me to teach you alchemy. Come with me; I will teach you until he is ready." For the next hour, I learned the basics of alchemy until Jaden walked into the mess hall, where Professor Baner was conducting the lesson. "Good morning. I hope I'm in time for breakfast," he said with a large smile. "Breakfast, it's time for lunch," professor baner said as he started to pack up his teaching supplies. After lunch, Jaden asked, "So, Jason, are you ready to duel?" "ready when you are," i said
Walking outside, chumley, syrus, and Professor Baner watched off to the side under the shade of a nearby tree while I walked to one side with my back to the water, and Jaden walked to the side with his back to the forest. "you can go first," i said as i acktivated my duel disk. "that's cool with me; let's get our game on!" he said, activating his duel disk.
[Jaden LP: 8,000 5 cards in hand]
[Jason LP; 8,000 5 cards in hand]
"All right i will start by summoning my Elemental HERO Avian." With a small tornado the monster appears"now i will set two cards face down," he said
[Jaden LP; 8,000 2 cards in hand]
[Elemental HERO Avian Atk 1,000 Def 1,000]
"My turn i draw i will start by activating the spell Vendread Charge by sending one zombie monster from my hand or face-up field to GY i can special summon one vendread monster from my deck i will send this monster from my hand and special summon Vendread Houndhorde in defense mode—[Vendread Houndhorde Atk 0 Def 2,100] Now, the effect of the monster I sent to the graveyard activates; since it was sent there, I can add one Vendread spell or trap from my deck to my hand. After that, I will normal summon Mezuki in attack mode [Mezuki Atk 1,700 Def 700]. "
"With two monsters on the field, Jaden is in trouble." Syrus said nervously, "Jeez, don't worry about it. Jaden's got this." chumley said trying to reassure syrus.
"Now Mezuki, attack his Avian." At my command, Mezuki lunged forward and swung his axe, annihilating the wind hero. [Jaden LP; 7,300] "you acktivated my trap. Hero Signal this card lets me special summon one Elemental HERO from my deck to the field so come forth. Elemental HERO Woodsman in defense mode," he said with a large smile. "well done i will end my turn," i said while thinking about my next move
[Jason LP: 8,000 3 cards in hand; two monsters on field]
"Alright i draw then woodsman's effect activates, allowing me to add the spell Polymerization from my deck to my hand now i will activate it and fuse my woodsman and the Elemental HERO Ocean to summon Elemental HERO Terra Firma in attack mode." with a rumble from the ground, came a giant hero made of marble with blue orbs on its head and shoulders and a red gem in its chest. "Then I will normally summon Elemental Hero Burstinatrix in attack mode." With a small swirl of flames, she appeared. "Now Terra Firma attack his Mezuki with world smashing punch." At Jaden's command, the hero rushed forward, gathering golden energy in his fist before punching a hole through Mezuki. [Jason LP; 7,200].
[Jaden LP; 7,300 2 cards in hand]
"Let's go Jaden!" Syrus exclaimed excitedly, "That's it for me; go ahead and show me what you've got!" Jaden said, "I will draw a card and then use the Pot of Greed I just drew to draw two more cards." as i drew them i see that one of the two monsters was Revendread Slayer, but it glowed a sickly green before turning into Revendread Executor 'so you decided to finally grow stronger to face the Hero of earth very well let's show them what you got," i thought before focusing back on the duel.
"I must thank you, Jaden; it seems that being near your powerful Hero monster caused one of my first spirits to evolve past his limits let me show you what he can do i will start by activating the field spell Vendread Nights—" as i did a derelict section of city appeared on my side of the field, while a bustling and lit-up city appeared behind jaden with a chain-link fence separating him and the spectators, trapping him on the derelict side with me. Jaden exclaimed, "Wow, what happened here?" to himself.
"This part of your field spell, Skyscraper, represents the area where the heroes failed to save those in need, leading to the rise of a new, darker hero who took on the challenge." I will activate its effect by sending one zombie monster from my hand to the graveyard, which allows me to add one 'vendread' monster from my deck to my hand. I will add Vendread Revenants to my hand, and now I will normal summon them in attack mode. [Vendread Revenants Atk 1,800 def 200] then i will activate the effect of Mezuki in the grave; by banishing it i can special summon one zombie monster from my grave back to the field and i will summon Vendread Striges in defense mode.
[Vendread Striges atk 500 def 2,000] now with all the sacrifices on the field i will activate the ritual spell Revendread Origin" after saying this, a silver locket appeared on the field before all three vendread monsters turned into blue energy and started to rush into it now come forth, the undead Hero Revendread Executor in attack mode." after saying that, the locket flashed in a blue light, revealing Executor standing there, covered in thick bone armor and instead of forelegs, he had two bone blades on his arm and a purple scarf around his neck. [Revendread Executor atk 3,000 def 0] "now because i used those three monsters, he gains extra effect from them. And the second effect of the first monster i sent at the start of the duel activates, allowing me to summon it from my graveyard."
After saying this, a monster in a leather coat that covers its whole body with red studded accents came bursting out of the ground.
[Scar of the Vendread atk 2,300 def 0]
"Fascinating… his deck appears to blend ritual summoning with self-recursion," Prof. baner said.
"Now I will use the first effect of the Revendread Executor: that once per turn I can banish one of your spell or trap cards." saying this pointed to Jaden's one card in the spell and trap zone, and Revendread Executor launched a sphere of blue energy at it, distorting it before both disappeared. "Now, i will use the second effect of the Revendread Executor, which lets me target one of your specially summoned monsters and banish it." After saying this, Revendread Executor pounced on Terra Firma and delivered a powerful punch glowing with blue energy, causing the hero to disappear in blue particles.
"Now, Scare, attack Elemental Hero Burstinatrix!" After giving the command, Scare lunged forward and smashed both of his arms down onto the flaming heroine, causing her to burst into smoke. [Jaden LP; 6,200] "now Revendread Executor attack his life points directly!" Jaden let out a small grunt as Revendread Executor delivered a swift punch. [Jaden LP; 3,200] "i end my turn," i said with a small smirk.
"Oh no, Jaden's in real trouble now; he lost both his monsters in one turn and Jason can use Revendread Executor's effects again next turn!" Syrus said, "Very true; the ability to grant a monster new effects based on what was used for the sacrifice of a ritual monster is very powerful. Jaden will have to use everything he can if he wants to beat it," Professor Baner added.
"I will draw a card and begin by summoning Winged Kuriboh in defense mode. "Then i will set this card facedown," Jaden said before i interrupted
[Winged Kuriboh atk 300 def 200]
"I will activate Revendread Executor effect to banish your face down." after wards Jaden continued.
"Now i will activate the spell Card of Sanctity this allows us both to draw till we have 6 cards in our hands, then i will activate the field spell skyscraper and then activate the spell monster reborn bringing back Elemental Hero Burstinatrix in defense mode, and then activate the spell HERO's Bond, allowing me to special summon two level 4 Elemental HERO from my hand so come forth Elemental HERO Bubbleman and Elemental HERO Voltic in defense mode, and then i will set two cards face down and end my turn." he said with a large smile.
[Elemental HERO Voltic atk 1,000 def 1,500]
[Elemental HERO Bubbleman atk 800 def 1,200]
"Alright, Jaden, summon four monsters in one turn; you can still win." Syrus said, like a cheerleader. "Don't get too excited. Jason still has two powerful monsters. and he can still finish this turn if Jaden's face-downs don't save him." Chumley said with a nervous tone.
"I draw i will start by activating the spell raigeki destroying all the monsters on your field, and then i will set one monster in face-down defense mode and end my turn."
"That's odd. Why didn't he activate his monster's effects?" Chumley said, confused.
"Yeah, he could have gotten rid of one of Jaden's face-downs." Syrus said,
"Alright i draw i will start by activating the spell Axe of Fools, equipping it to your Revendread Executor while it gains 1,000 attack points but its effects are negated, and then i will activate the trap. Necro Fusion: this card lets me fusion summon one monster by banishing the materials from my graveyard i will banish my woodsman and avian to fusion summon Elemental HERO Great Tornado and when he is summoned, his superpower activates, cutting your monsters' attack and defense in half for the rest of this turn. I will then summon Elemental HERO Blazeman; when he is normal or special summoned i can add one polymerization from my deck to my hand."
"Now Blazeman is attack Scar!" with a barrage of flaming fists hitting, scaring, and blowing up in a burst of black smoke.
[Jason LP; 7,150]
"Now, Great Tornado, attack Revendread Executor with a storm barrage!"
[Jason LP; 6,350]
"Alright Jaden "He destroyed both of Jason's strong monsters, and now he can win on the next turn," Syrus said. "You're right, just one more turn." Chumley
"Not so fast! My monster is not gone yet. By banishing Revendread Origin from the graveyard, I can prevent my Revendread Executor from being destroyed." i said
"Alright, that ends my turn." Jaden said, "i draw be proud Jaden This is the longest duel I have had for a while, but it ends now because my monster has had its attack return to normal. Revendread Executor attack Jaden's Blazeman!" With a powerful punch, Blazeman had his flames snuffed out.
[Jaden LP; 400]
"Now i will activate vendread nights second effect by banishing one vendread monster from my graveyard my monster can attack again now. Revendread Executor attack Great Tornado and end this duel!" Both monsters rushed forward, and after a few exchanges of blows, Great Tornado was defeated and destroyed.
[Jaden LP; 0]
"No way Jaden lost." Syrus said, "Ha, ha, ha! Man, that was so much fun, and your monsters were pretty cool." As I walked closer, Jaden said, "Yeah, that was pretty fun!" Your hero monsters are really cool too; I would want some for myself because they seem so versatile," I said.
After hanging out with Jaden and the others for a while i made my way back to the ra yellow dorm for dinner. "That duel was amazing!" ash said as she flew around me "ya that was fun and watching the dullest kingdom and battle city cd's where interesting those the battel city one down played joey to muck." i said as we arrived into the mess hall. "Oh, there you are, Jason. I have not seen you all day," Bastion said as I sat down next to him. "I had a duel with Jaden, and then I spent time with him and his friends watching some of the more famous duels. What have you been up to today?" I asked as I began to eat.
"I was held up in the library doing more research to improve my deck building and studying new developments in duel science," Bastion said before he started to eat. For the next hour, Bastion and I discussed our ideas for deck building, during which I mostly explained the strategies used for constructing a modern meta deck, including what to use three of, deck thinning with draw spells, and the typing searchers. I then walked back to my room for the night.
