Chapter 414: Dark Demon, the King of Wonderland Part 1 　　

Boom!

The rumbling of the buildings resounded throughout the hall.

Dark Demon's eyes blazed like torches.

A huge Ferris wheel rose from behind him, piercing the ceiling of the hall in an instant.

A merry-go-round with colorful lights appeared beside Ryan Hex. He quickly grabbed the unconscious Tom Nixon and jumped away with one foot, but where he landed, the track of a roller coaster abruptly soared like a dragon, taking the two people up to the sky.

♪♩♫♬♭~

A lively melody accompanied the rotation of the merry-go-round.

A river channel descended from the sky, and floaty boats came up from the bottom of the river, splashing a ton of water.

Countless colorful lights suddenly dropped down from the ceiling.

A gigantic plaster figure of WaruMonzaemon popped up in the vicinity.

The howling of ghosts and goblins spread out from the Haunted House gate that opened up on the wall.

In just a moment, with Dark at the center, the greater part of the hall had been overtaken by [Wonderland].

Although this was his first time summoning [Wonderland] in such a grand scale, Dark didn't get the slightest bit distracted by it.

His attention was fully focused on the hero of the golden age, the Blood Princess, with his second magic card already at his fingertips.

……

"Is this a variant of Claire's [Zoo]?"

Having instantly comprehended the essence of [Wonderland], Ophelia Bullard’s pupils slightly shrank, revealing a hint of surprise.

She originally thought that after watching Dark's matches in the duel festival, she would have a pretty good grasp of his strength.

But she never thought that it was just the tip of the iceberg!

"But this is good as well..."

Thinking of this, a blood-red magic card suddenly appeared in Ophelia Bullard's palm.

As she raised it between two fingers, blood-red light began to swirl in the magic card.

As a graduate of Saint Marian Academy, Ophelia Bullard was naturally an excellent magister.

After a successful summoning, the magic card fused with Blood Magic turned into a thick drop of blood.

Plop!

Following a clear sound, the blood seemed to have melted into the ground. Then, it once again seeped out from the ground, rapidly spreading out.

Swoosh——

With a large injection of magic energy, the blood rapidly expanded and turned into a surging tide, gushing in all directions.

Half of the hall, with Ophelia Bullard at its center, was instantly swamped and engulfed by the surging blood tide.

The blood waves crashed into the walls and rolled back, creating turbulent whirlpools of blood.

Standing in the middle of the hall, White and Robert suddenly found that in the brief moment they had been stunned, the surrounding environment had already changed drastically.

Ahead of them was the surging blood tide, while behind them was the towering Wonderland.

"Let's go!"

Robert quickly grabbed White's arm and dragged the still stunned boy towards Wonderland.

The ground underneath their feet had been covered with flat stone bricks. Clusters of green plants emerged from the ground, and gorgeous flowers were blooming in succession.

When their front feet stepped onto Wonderland, their back feet were splashed by the blood tide.

Then, a torrent of energy burst forth, and the momentum of the surging blood tide was pushed back by Wonderland. Losing the force of propulsion, it poured onto the ground and flowed into the gaps of the stone bricks.

The enormous hall was thus divided in two.

"In the name of Dark Demon, magic summon——[Magical Scribe]!"

Dark decisively started the next round of magic summoning.

Inside [Wonderland], every magical spirit that had been registered in Wonderland could be summoned in just two seconds.

As Magical Scribe appeared and unfolded in his hand, Dark began to expand his troop at the fastest speed.

Leomon and Gatomon promptly took a step forward and stood in front of him like loyal guards.

Dark's magic energy surged like a tide. It didn’t get the slightest bit unstable due to the overly fast summoning.

His exceptional gift in magic energy was fully demonstrated at this moment.

Snap!

Having completed the summoning of [Blood Realm(血源之界)], Ophelia Bullard raised her hand and snapped her fingers.

A moment later, an extremely complex magic circle appeared beside her.

Floating above the pool of blood, the magic circle brought about an abrupt change in the flow of the blood. It gathered around the magic circle, gradually forming a huge vortex.

Thereupon, a pillar-shaped object condensed out of blood erupted from the center of the vortex!

Blpblpblp——

On the top of the pillar, blood bubbles gushed out and continued to multiply, eventually condensing into a monster head resembling a snake and a wolf.

As it took form, the monster head abruptly opened its bloody mouth, and a glowing blood sphere rapidly condensed in its mouth.

"Rawr!"

With a resounding roar, the blood-red light sphere instantly shot out.

In a flash, a dazzling blood-red lightbeam crossed the distance and fired towards Dark.

"Fist of the Beast King!"

But the lion's roar interspersed within the call of the move surpassed the explosion of the lightbeam. The lion-shaped energy wave promptly rushed out and bit at the incoming lightbeam.

Bang!

Two waves of energy clashed in the air.

Although [Fist of the Beast King] had swallowed up the lightbeam, it similarly vanished without a trace.

Leomon, still in the posture of swinging its fist, radiated an awe-inspiring aura.

But almost immediately, just like blooming flowers, magic circles emerged around Ophelia Bullard one after another.

Then, pillars condensed out of blood simultaneously drilled out from the centers of the magic circles, and grotesque monster heads took form on the tops of the blood pillars.

Leomon and Gatomon's expressions immediately turned grave.

……

But within this short interval, Dark had already summoned a large number of magical spirits.

With the assistance of [Magical Scribe] and the shortening of summoning time by [Wonderland], he could complete two summons every two seconds, and then carry out two more summons after an intermission of two seconds.

He only needed ten seconds to summon the remaining six first-tier magical spirits registered in [Wonderland]!

The first magical spirit he summoned was [Phantom Magic Beast: Ditto].

"Mon Mon!"

Upon appearing, Ditto bolted into the [Haunted House], its body shape continuously squirming and changing.

Then, [Shuckle] materialized under the summoning of [Magical Scribe], observing the battlefield with sharp eyes.

Afterwards, Dark successively summoned [Hawlucha], [Phantom Magic Beast: Eevee], [Popplio], and [Trash Slime].

As soon as it appeared, Hawlucha flew onto the Ferris wheel.

Little Eevee strode out with its short legs and ran towards the [Haunted House] behind it.

Popplio's summoning circle lit up directly in the river. The moment it materialized, it dove into the water to protect itself.

Similarly, Trash Slime immediately dove into Shuckle's shell upon being summoned.

As part of [Wonderland], their strength might not be enough to participate in a battle of this level, but as long as they protected themselves, they would become the best assistance to their companions.

The existence of each magical spirit would provide a full 100 points of magic energy, attack, and defense for the magical spirits belonging to [Wonderland]!

Although these magic energy, attack, and defense were not counted as basic values, they were nonetheless a massive improvement for any magical spirit.

"In the name of Dark Demon, magic summon——[Curse Cage]!"

After Dark raised his hand and sealed DemiDevimon inside [Curse Cage], [Magical Scribe] then cast the Normal Summoning Spell and summoned [Curse Cage: DemiDevimon] in just two seconds.

As such, there were now a total of eight magical spirits inside [Wonderland], and the only ones left unsummoned were the 4-star [Sylveon] and [Miltank].

The existence of these eight magical spirits increased each of their magic energy, attack and defense by a full 800 points.

Equipped with [Honedge], Gatomon’s attack power had thereby reached [1900 + 500 + (4x300) + 800 = 4400] points.

　　▼

　　[Card name: Gatomon]

　　[Magic energy: 2800]

　　[Attack: 4400]

　　[Defense: 2200]

　　▲

Strictly looking at the data on the panel, Gatomon had impressively reached the level of a third-tier magical spirit.

It didn't even lose out to Dark's ultimate trump card—[Bastemon].

Looking up at the blood pillars around Ophelia Bullard, Dark loudly called out, "Gatomon!"

"Meow!"

Gatomon responded and stood up, the power surging throughout its body making its blood gradually boil.

It kicked the ground with its feet and shot out in an instant!

The shadow of the white cat exuding a strong holy aura passed by White Gawd like a flash of light, crossing into the territory of [Blood Realm] in the blink of an eye.

The blood with its erosion effect was instantly swept away by the holy power. The color of brick stones was unveiled for a moment before it was once again swamped in blood.

Gatomon ran amidst the blood with [Honedge] grasped at its side. Holding the scabbard in one hand and the handle in the other, the dazzling white light continued to radiate from the gap of the scabbard.

After crossing the distance between the two sides, it snapped up its head, its amber eyes solemnly staring at the face of the Blood Princess.

In real battles, decapitation strategy had always been the first choice to deal with magical professions.

As long as Blood Princess was killed, everything would be over.

Gatomon’s spiritual power had been accumulated to the extreme, and the holy light emitted by the sword in its grasp was becoming stronger and stronger.

But facing the fiercely approaching white cat, Ophelia Bullard simply smiled and did not retreat.

The blood under Gatomon's feet instantly surged into a tide and destroyed its balance.

Immediately afterwards, the monster heads simultaneously opened their mouths to shoot out blood-red lightbeams.

Dozens of lightbeams came showering, instantly bombarding the spot where Gatomon stood.

BOOM!

The sound of explosions reverberated throughout the hall.

But a white shadow suddenly dashed out, and the [Holy Sword] that had been unsheathed slashed towards Ophelia Bullard's neck like a gust of wind.

The holy light that burst out from the [Holy Sword] as the blade was swung was akin to a sickle of light.

Time suddenly slowed down.

The gleaming sword closed in on the Blood Princess’ snow-white neck at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In just a moment, it seemed as though the scene where her head was separated from her body would come into view.

"No!"

At this moment, White Gawd, who was dragged into Wonderland by Robert, had his eyes opened so wide that they were bulging.

Under the stimulation of spiritual power, the holy sword he had been holding in his hand erupted with a strong light

But Gatomon's slash would not stop because of this.

Similarly, Ophelia Bullard would not be killed by this mere slash.

"Bind!"

The word that came out of her mouth was clear and melodious.

Her blood-red long hair that looked like a waterfall suddenly moved before she finished uttering her word, shooting out at a faster speed than Gatomon.

In the blink of an eye, Gatomon's limbs and torso were ensnared and bound by the dense blood-red long hair.

The impact of its charge and the force of its sudden slash had been entirely negated.

The blood-red hair completely avoided the [Holy Sword], the two thickest strands firmly wrapping around Gatomon's wrists.

Gatomon, who by itself possessed 3200 points of attack power, was actually unable to break free.

Shock and disbelief flashed across Gatomon's face.

This was the first time it had encountered such a powerful opponent since its birth. Faced with the current situation, it was completely caught off guard.

But as its master, Dark Demon would never underestimate a hero of the golden age—even when this hero had not been active on the battlefield for a very long time.

"Cat's Eye Hypnotism!"

The timely command from its master had Gatomon quickly come back to its senses. As its eyes widened, they instantly emitted rays of light akin to red wheels.

After the rays of [Cat's Eye Hypnotism] shone into her eyes, Ophelia Bullard, who was looking at Gatomon at a very close distance, was distracted for a moment

Although it was only because the light dazzled her eyes and not because [Cat's Eye Hypnotism] really took effect, it still managed to buy Dark precious time.

"In the name of Dark Demon, magic summon——[Blinking Spell]!"

The moment the Magic Charm was cast, Gatomon's body abruptly vanished from the entrapment of the blood-red hair.

It reappeared behind Ophelia Bullard in a sword-wielding stance. With a twist of its wrist, the tip of Honedge’s blade swiftly thrust backwards, passed through its armpit, and stabbed towards the back!

Pshht!

The sound of it stabbing into flesh was particularly clear.

As if cutting into tofu, Honedge's blade pierced Ophelia Bullard's body.

The holy power contained in the [Holy Sword] exploded like a bomb.

Boom!

The left side of Ophelia Bullard's waist was brutally blown up.

Everyone around instantly zoomed in on her wound.

A look of disbelief crept up in Ryan Hex's eyes.

He never thought that Dark Demon's magical spirit could actually hurt the Blood Princess.

Meanwhile, White Gawd screamed upon seeing this.

He brusquely shook off Robert's hand. At this time, he no longer cared about whether or not she was a demon and only wanted to rush to his mother’s side regardless of everything.

But as soon as he stepped into the [Blood Realm], his shoes and socks were corroded by the blood, making him feel a stinging pain in the soles of his feet.

This had him falling stiff for a moment.

It was this moment of stiffness that made him realize that there was no blood coming out from the horrible wound on the side of Ophelia Bullard's waist.

On the contrary, blood was soaking into the surface of the wound as it regenerated new flesh and blood at an extremely fast rate.

Ophelia Bullard remained unshaken. She didn’t even turn her head to look at Gatomon behind her.

She had a very clear understanding of Gatomon's "qualification of the Brave One" and the "holy sword" it wielded, and was well aware of the extent of damage the combination of these two could cause to her.

But that was all.

She was the [Blood Princess], the last descendant of the Blood Race, the controller of blood power, and a healer who was no less capable than the holy church’s [Holy Maiden], a healing expert who was lauded with the title of "Princess"!

The holy power that had absolute restraint on the demon race was easily expelled from the wound by her.

Within just a few seconds, the wound the size of a basin had been completely healed.

The newly grown skin was smooth and delicate, emitting a faint sheen.

Upon turning back, Gatomon, who had landed behind her, was so stunned that its preparation to finish off the enemy immediately stopped in its tracks.

Dark Demon's eyes narrowed as he grasped a better understanding of the Blood Princess's strength.

But he had long been prepared for this.

Gatomon who was equipped with [Honedge] was indeed his trump card to deal with the Blood Princess who had transformed into a demon.

However, it wasn’t his only trump card.
