Chapter 395: , the Demon King of Fear Part 2

Moreover, Dark Demon would never let [] continue attacking the blue side's magic ball.

No—Dark Demon had already started to act!

Out of the corner of his eye, could already see the blue side's magic ball taking off once more under the pull of magic energy.

And having lost the [Ghost Wings], [Jester Ninja] could only opt to attack it by throwing its kunai—how utterly stupid was this!

"Jester Ninja, attack the purple ghost!"

Forced into desperation, Stuart Fawn could only change his command.

As [Jester Ninja]'s eyes flashed, it immediately halted its throwing movement, and then aimed the kunai in its hand at the purple ghost—!

Meanwhile, Stuart Fawn himself was putting all his might to pull the red side's magic ball to the ground.

As a matter of fact, the ground was his home court.

As long as the red side's magic ball was pulled back to the ground and any of his magical spirits dragged it into the [Shadow Cave], he could gain another room for maneuver.

In addition, he had a grand total of eighteen sacrifices in the form of the eighteen [] on the ground!

These special magical spirits, who possessed the strength of a 2-star but were marked as 1-star, could be used as

sacrifice to summon any second-tier, or even third-tier magical spirit!

Even students in the same grade didn't know that Stuart Fawn owned a .

Even though this 7-star magical spirit card wasn't considered outstanding among those of the same star ranking, it was still of the third tier and could exert a tier suppression against the first and second tiers.

This was the source of Stuart Fawn's confidence.

Although he had yet to draw that magical spirit card, a dueler would never give up until the very end.

……

BOOM!

The kunai thrown by [Jester Ninja] exploded in the air, forcing the charging Mismagius to pull back.

Affected by the shock wave of the explosion, the magic energy value of the red side's magic ball dropped again, but it simultaneously fell to the ground at a faster speed.

[Magic energy (red): 1667→998]

This unexpected joy had Stuart Fawn looking ecstatic as he hurriedly issued a command.

Upon receiving the command, one of the [Shadow Ants] immediately turned around and ran back towards the [Shadow Cave].

Under the control of Stuart Fawn, the red side's magic ball that fell to the ground moved above that [Shadow Cave].

Next, he only needed to wait for the [Shadow Ant] to return and drag it into the [Shadow Cave].

But the grin that had just formed on Stuart Fawn’s face suddenly froze.

He snapped up his head and looked at the opposite side.

Dark was looking at him with a smile.

Thereupon, propelled by a burst of magic energy, the red side's magic ball began to rise upwards!

Having moved his own magic ball to a safe height and freed up his hands, Dark proceeded to exert his magic energy on the red side's magic ball.

The tug-of-war of magic balls using magic energy would occur in almost every single duel between seniors.

With a swish of his finger, Dark continued to increase his magic energy.

Flames of fury burned in Stuart Fawn's eyes. With a hard smack, he pressed down with his magic energy.

Under the wrangling of the two people's magic energy, the red side's magic ball incessantly trembled.

What confounded Stuart Fawn was that this first year's magic energy was actually faintly showing a strength that suppressed his own.

Gritting his teeth in indignation, he roared, "Jester Ninja!"

[Jester Ninja] vigorously flung Sylveon away. Then, as if sticking to the ground, it galloped in an instant, closing in on the red side's magic ball like the wind.

At this critical moment, it had stopped indulging in theatrics.

Tick-tock!

The sixth round ended in the blink of an eye.

Both sides had gone into the seventh round without even drawing their cards.

But at this moment when the duel had clearly reached the final tug-of-war phase, the tens of thousands of audience at the site had all held their breath, staring fixedly at the red side's magic ball.

There was no chance to bring into play the eighteen [Shadow Ants] in the arena that could serve as tributes.

Despite obviously having a second-tier magical spirit card in his hand, there was absolutely no time for Stuart Fawn to cast "".

At some point in time, the situation had escalated to become so grave.

After the seventh round started, both sides’ contestants still didn't draw their cards.

Stuart Fawn poured all his efforts into controlling the magic ball.

As long as he could hold on until [Jester Ninja] came and pushed down the magic ball with its hand, there was no way the long range control of magic ball with magic energy could triumph over [Jester Ninja]’s strength.

At that time, he could let [Jester Ninja] put the magic ball into the [Shadow Cave] and gain some breathing room.

……

But while Stuart Fawn had [Jester Ninja], Dark Demon similarly had [Mismagius].

Even without Dark's order, Mismagius had already taken action.

It dove down from the sky, swooping at the red side's magic ball like an eagle.

With only 998 points of magic energy left, it would only take one blow to completely smash it apart!

If it could successfully seize the victory for this duel, it believed that it would be more favored upon!

At the same time, the smoke in the blue side's summoning area had finally dissipated. With its vision restored, [Shuckle] stretched out its head from its shell.

As its beady eyes shifted around to watch the heated fight taking place in the red side's area, it couldn't help but feel eager to have a go.

But its extremely slow crawling speed thoroughly hindered it from reaching the battlefield.

[Mismagius] was really far too inconsiderate—it didn't even activate [Nightmare Space] for it!

"Shuckle Shuckle."

Shuckle felt a little dejected.

……

No one noticed the lonely little Shuckle.

……

When Mismagius swooped down, a sharp glint flashed in [Jester Ninja]'s eyes as it clasped three kunai between the fingers of its right hand.

Without a moment's delay, it hurled up the three kunai while galloping close to the ground.

As the three kunai spread out in the air, the gauze connected to their ends were expanded into a net.

The gauze net formed by shadow energy gradually turned into a large web, soaring up to rapidly enclose Mismagius.

"Misdreavus!"

Unable to change direction in time, Mismagius abruptly cried out in alarm.

But despite screaming, it didn’t flinch and continued to charge ahead, trying to smash the red side's magic ball while dragging the shadow web.

But what caught it off guard was that the three kunai that served as fulcrum suddenly exploded, and the resulting impact swept along the shadow web, holding it back in midair!

As [Jester Ninja] let out a breath, its five fingers rapidly moved as if working a marionette, and the shadow web suddenly tightened up, entirely trapping Mismagius!

A look of panic surfaced in Mismagius' eyes.

Originally, due to its nature as a "ghost", it could easily get out of the web.

But after equipping [Ghost Wings], it had lost the ability to "pass through" things.

This made it look very miserable, like a bird trapped in a net.

However, it was ultimately not a bird.

"Tear it apart." Dark couldn't help giving it a pointer.

Only then did Mismagius come to its senses and gather its strength to tear apart the shadow web.

In the first place, it had the ability to do so, but it fell into panic because its intelligence was too high.

……

But as soon as Dark spoke, his exertion of magic energy instantly dropped as though there was a leak in fuel, giving Stuart Fawn an opportunity to seize.

Meanwhile, [Jester Ninja] had finally stormed over and grabbed the magic ball.

……

"It seems that contestant Stuart Fawn has successfully grabbed a lifeline," Zach Wilson humorously quipped from the commentator's tribune.

But the situation that in his view was about to ease up was actually still rampaging at full speed.

Angus Jeffrey in the ring belt.

Dianna, Rose, and the others who were also in the ring belt.

Alvette in the auditorium.

Aurora in the loge.

……

Various people had their nerves strung tight due to various reasons.

……

The situation on the field hadn’t eased up in the slightest.

"Mismagius, Dread Gem!"

There was an obvious rise in Dark Demon’s voice.

Although Mismagius was a little reluctant, it still obeyed the order and released the magic energy it had collected from dreams night after night.

Thereby, the three red gems inlaid on its body unleashed rays of magic energy that sparkled like gemstones!

The rays of light were incredibly dazzling, radiating with a dreamlike beauty.

But hidden beneath that beauty was a lethal killing intent!

Almost as if melting, several [Shadow Ants] who were irradiated by the magic light turned into light spots of magic energy on the spot.

Sensing the crisis, [Jester Ninja] subconsciously put the magic ball in its grasp behind its back before it was promptly irradiated by the magic light.

At that moment, its heart was struck with an extreme feeling of fear.

Different from ordinary magical spirits, Stuart Fawn's [Jester Ninja] clearly possessed an intelligence beyond the norm.

Precisely because of this, it could feel the emotion of fear contained in the magic energy light even more clearly.

Its magic energy value rapidly plummeted at a speed visible to the naked eye!

Because [Jester Ninja] had been using its ultimate [Jester Trick] non-stop after being summoned, its magic energy had in fact already been consumed by half.

Upon being irradiated by the magic light, its remaining magic energy value of only one thousand points could absolutely not withstand it. Just as it hit rock bottom, Stuart Fawn, as the dueler, finally summoned another magic card.

Within the short few seconds from when [Jester Ninja] took over the magic ball until now, Stuart Fawn knew very well that he didn’t have the time to do "tribute summoning", and thus, he opted for .

"In the name of Stuart Fawn, magic summoning——[(护身镜)]!"

In an instant, an oval light mirror appeared in front of [Jester Ninja], blocking the radiation of [Dread Gem]’s magic light.

But this Magic Charm Card that could play a "protective" role at the critical moment only lasted for a few seconds before abruptly shattering.

But it was within these short few seconds that [Jester Ninja], who was on its last legs, successfully dove into the [Shadow Cave] at its feet and completed its shadow escape.

Stuart Fawn heaved a sigh of relief, his tense nerves instantly relaxing.

However, the magic light released by Dread Gem didn’t cease.

As Mismagius unleashed its ultimate with a look of deep regret, it vigorously used up the magic energy it had intended to store to slightly condense the magic energy light and pour it into the [Shadow Cave] where [Jester Ninja] had escaped to.

"Ahh!"

A miserable shriek echoed from the entrance of the [Shadow Cave].

The remnants of shadow web on Mismagius’ body suddenly turned into tiny dots of light.

There was no more sound coming from the [Shadow Cave].

With [Jester Ninja] gone, the red side's magic ball it had brought into the [Shadow Cave] was thus squeezed out by the [Shadow Cave].

But upon reappearing in front of the audience, the life barrier of the red side's magic ball had already been completely shattered.

[Magic energy (red): 998→0]

……

Tick-tock.

The countdown displayed in the air once again restarted upon falling to zero.

But this highly intense duel with no room for respite had already come to an end.

Starting from the start of the sixth round, both sides had been completely unable to spare any time to draw and check out their cards. From the respective battles both in the sky and on the ground, to the magic energy tug-of-war between the contestants, and then to the rescue and clash of the magical spirits, the duel was so intense that it allowed not a single moment of respite.

In the end, the red side's contestant Stuart Fawn failed to push the situation to the next stage and was fiercely pursued by the blue side's contestant Dark Demon who seized the opportunity, thoroughly crushing him.

After a brief standstill, the atmosphere in the dueling hall suddenly erupted.

Audiences from all over the world instantly heated up like boiling hot water. Countless discussions intermingled with excited cheers, wildly churning like the ocean tide.

The audience who saw Dark Demon for the first time today would probably have never imagined that a first-year student would actually defeat a top third-year student in a formal duel!

Many of the audience, especially those who were highly optimistic about the contestant Stuart Fawn, never expected that he would actually lose.

Some people who bet on Stuart Fawn were completely left in disbelief. "Is that it? Doesn't Fawn still have a lot of magic cards? What on earth happened to him?"

……

"What on earth happened to him?"

The face of Angus Jeffrey, the president of the Aristocratic History Research Society, was nearly crumpled with anger.

While the crowd was surging with cheers, he took the chance to roar at Mike Irving beside him.

But Mike Irving just wanted to tell him: "Your saliva’s (¯﹃¯) splattered onto my face."

……

"The duel is over, and the one who ultimately won is the first-year Noble House student—Dark Demon!"

Zach Wilson couldn't hold back from shouting in excitement.

On the red side's contestant platform, Stuart Fawn, who had only snapped back to his senses upon hearing Wilson's voice, suddenly realized that he had truly lost!

He clearly still had cards in his hand. He had clearly prepared enough sacrifices to summon a large number of high-ranked magical spirits. He clearly still had a 7-star magical spirit as a final trump card—and yet he lost!

He couldn't even squeeze out the less than ten seconds’ time it would take to cast "tribute summoning".

The sudden massive intake of breath made him choke and spiral into a fit of coughing.

"If—if I could compress the casting time of "tribute summoning" to the limit of three seconds..."

Just like casting "Normal Summoning Spell", some strong duelers in the upper grades were able to cast "tribute summoning" within the quickest limit of three seconds.

But that was in fact the result of equal amounts of talent and hard work.

Stuart Fawn could be said to be a hardworking genius who also had pretty good luck, but in truth, his talent in magic energy wasn't particularly exceptional.

Therefore, his progress in mastering "tribute summoning", which was much more complex than "Normal Summoning Spell", was very slow.

"Senior Fawn, are you okay?"

Gentle as the spring breeze, Dark Demon's voice reached his ears, abruptly putting a stop to Stuart Fawn's thoughts.

As a strange look flashed across his face, he forcibly coughed twice to clear up the itching in his throat.

Then, he tilted up his head and said in a solemn voice, "It's my loss."
