Who Let Him Play Yu-Gi-Oh! novel Chapter 359

Chapter 359: Chapter 358: Mr. Zombie, Give It Your All

"Before you end your Battle Phase, I activate a set card."

Kira snapped his fingers.

"Continuous Trap, ’Ultimate Offering’!"

The set card flipped face-up, and what looked like blood flowed from the dark card art.

"Ultimate Offering’s effect can be activated during my Main Phase or your Battle Phase."

Kira slowly drew a card from his hand.

"So, I’ll use its effect now. Pay 500 LP to Tribute Summon a monster from my hand.

I Tribute ’Magician of Faith’ to Tribute Summon a monster in face-down Defense Position."

[Kira, LP 4000 → LP 3500]

Magician of Faith vanished in a shower of golden sparks, replaced by a mysterious face-down card.

Zombie Morita stared intently at the set card, letting out ambiguous groans.

The Battle Phase ended, and it was now Main Phase 2.

He squinted, laboring over his hand for a while, thick fingers brushing over each card as if doing eeny-meeny-miny-moe, before finally picking one.

"Set... end."

A gold light appeared in his back row as he set a card.

"My turn, draw."

"And first, of course, is the card I retrieved with ’Magician of Faith.’"

He immediately played a Spell.

"Spell Card, ’Pot of Greed’—draw two more cards."

He quickly drew two, then revealed another card.

"Spell Card, ’Spider Web’—I can add a card sent to the Graveyard last turn to my hand." (Anime card)

He pointed at Morita’s Graveyard.

"I’ll take your ’Graceful Charity.’"

White threads shot from Kira’s Duel Disk, snatching the Spell Card from his opponent’s Graveyard and returning it to Kira’s hand.

"Now, activate ’Graceful Charity’—draw three, discard two."

Kira drew three and discarded two.

"But one of the discarded cards is ’Learning Elf.’ When this monster is sent to the Graveyard, I draw one card." (Manga card) 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

He glanced at his draw, added it to his hand, then looked at the zombie.

Zombie Morita stared back with hollow eyes.

"So, you still have a clear grasp of the rules, but to what extent is your intelligence intact... let’s check."

Kira flipped his face-down monster.

"Flip Summon the set monster. And it’s..."

A massive monster, like a mountain made of stone, appeared on Kira’s field, its sphinx-like visage exuding an imposing presence.

"Guardian Sphinx!"

[Guardian Sphinx, ATK 1700]

"Guardian Sphinx’s effect: when this card is Flip Summoned, return all monsters your opponent controls to their owner’s hand!"

For a split second, Morita’s zombie eyes seemed to twitch, maybe even glaring at Kira.

Full-field, non-targeting, AOE bounce!

The massive Sphinx invoked its power. The Blue Thunder Fighter was helpless before it, forced to retreat back to Morita’s hand under the statue’s stern gaze.

Back row bounced, front row bounced...

Even though the zombie’s face remained lifeless, his eyes now seemed a bit... resentful.

Or maybe it was just Kira’s imagination.

Kira rested his chin on his hand.

Still needs more confirmation.
