Yu-Gi-Oh!, the Roar of the Weak

Chapter 196 Holy Spirit Beast Wind Rider Clan

"I set the Link Summon on [Spirit Beast Thunderhawk] and [Spirit Beast Tamer Leila]. The Summoning condition is 2 'Spirit Beast' monsters. Confirm with the arrow, Link Summon, LINK 2, [Holy Spirit Beast Rider Mountain Falcon]"

A network loop appeared, and Vinda descended upon the battlefield riding the Gentle Breeze Falcon. Kamui, in a corner, silently wiped away tears as he watched his two resurrected friends and family. Of course, he also felt a pang of envy, seeing these two still so young despite his own advanced age.

"I activate this effect by banishing 1 'Spirit Beast' card from my Graveyard using the second effect of Mountain Falcon. I then Summon 1 'Spirit Beast' monster from my hand. I banish 'Spirit Beast Thunderhawk' from my Graveyard and Normal Summon 'Spirit Beast Master Wen'."

The second of the three spirit beast tamer sisters, a quiet girl with yellow-purple hair, entered the arena.

"When performing a Special Summon, you may Special Summon 1 'Spirit Beast' monster that is banished from your party. I Special Summon [Spirit Beast HeartHentah]."

"I activate the effect of [Spirit Beast Hearthawk]: Once per turn, banish 1 Spirit Beast Monster from your Extra Deck, and send 1 Spirit Beast Monster of the same Type as that monster from your Deck to the Graveyard. I banish the FIRE-attribute [Holy Spirit Beast Rider Fire Lion], and send [Spirit Beast Fire Lion] to the Graveyard."

The fiery lion, its face blank, entered the cemetery, wearing the same ornament around its neck as Cinleya's hair. Seeing it, tears welled up in Cinleya's eyes.

The little dragon in Leila's hair quietly wiped away her tears, saying, "Don't cry, I'll always be with you from now on."

"Hmm, I'll exclude the [Spirit Beast Fire Lion] and [Spirit Beast Tamer Leila] from the graveyard and fuse them to summon [Holy Spirit Beast Rider Star Dragon]!"

In the cemetery, Leila, who hadn't ridden the fire lion in a long time, gently stroked its mane before the two of them disappeared into another dimension.

Then, the now-mature Leila returned from another dimension riding a brand-new golden dragon star monster.

The figure of the [Holy Spirit Beast Rider Fire Lion] is no longer seen; the new [Holy Spirit Beast Rider Star Dragon] has arrived on the battlefield!

Upon seeing this scene, Di Xing couldn't help but recall the online comments.

Which Dragon Star is this? None of you look like it to me! You didn't just see a blonde, black-stockinged beauty wanting to ride something and immediately fused together, did you? Just so someone could ride you?

"Mr. Di Xing, you're awake, aren't you?" Que Yuxiang said calmly, gently removing her handkerchief from Di Xing's mouth.

Di Xing said awkwardly, "I'm sorry, Miss Que Yuxiang, I... I actually wanted to say something just now, but I couldn't make a sound."

Que Yuxiang gently stroked Di Xing's hair. "It's alright. You're a patient now, so I won't do anything to you. But could you please come to Zagu District to see me after you've recovered?"

"Uh, okay." Di Xing swallowed hard. Why did he sense a hint of murderous intent in Que Yuxiang's words? He hoped it was just his imagination.

"I will banish [Spirit Beast Tamer Wen] and [Spirit Beast HeartKicker] from the field and fuse to summon [Holy Spirit Beast Rider Thunderhawk]!"

Leila and the Thunderhawk flew into the void, and the next moment, Vinda rode the Thunderhawk back from the void.

"I will then select [Holy Spirit Beast Rider Fire Lion] and [Spirit Beast Fire Lion] to activate the first effect of [Holy Spirit Beast Rider Thunder Eagle]" C1

"Then I chained [Spirit Beast Tamer Wen] and [Spirit Beast Fire Lion] to activate the second effect of [Holy Spirit Beast Rider Thunder Eagle]" C2

Results settlement

C2 Special Summon [Spirit Beast Master Aya] and [Spirit Beast Fire Lion]

C1 [Holy Beast Rider Fire Lion] returns to the Graveyard, [Elder of the Holy Beast Rider] is added to the hand.

"I activate the effect of [Spirit Beast Fire Lion]. Once during your turn or mine, I can banish 1 'Spirit Beast' card from my Graveyard to activate this effect. This turn, all Spirit Beast monsters I control gain 500 ATK and DEF. I banish [Holy Spirit Beast Knight Fire Lion]."

"I set the Link Summon on [Holy Beast Rider Mountain Falcon], [Spirit Beast Master Aya], and [Spirit Beast Fire Lion]. The summoning conditions are 3 or more Effect Monsters. Confirm with the arrow, Link Summon, LINK 4, [Holy Beast Rider Wind Clan]!"

Several stars began to twinkle in the night sky, and a gigantic star gate opened, from which flew a colossal golden dragon-star monster. Leila stood atop its head, holding her flaming staff high, looking majestic. Her younger sister Wen sat on the back of the dragon-star monster, gripping the saddle tightly with both hands. Another younger sister, Pili, clung tightly to Wen in front of her.

"That monster is pretty cool," Di Xing exclaimed.

With her eyes closed, Que Yuxiang smiled. "Luckily, Sister Xuefang isn't here. If she saw that [Holy Spirit Beast Rider Wind Clan], she'd definitely go berserk again."

That's right, as long as the Wind Clan is on the field, neither side can release cards to activate their effects, making it a hard counter to Six Flowers. However, in order not to anger Que Yuxiang, who was inexplicably in a bad mood, Di Xing said very politely.

"Yes, Miss Que Yuxiang, that monster is very effective against the Rikka deck."

Que Yuxiang suddenly opened her eyes, her fiery red, maple-leaf-like pupils staring at Di Xing. Those eyes were incredibly beautiful, but utterly devoid of any light.

"Mr. Di Xing, I feel that your way of addressing me is too formal. Please call me Xiangxiang."

"Huh? Xiangxiang?"

"Okay, I'll call you Star."

"That's my special nickname," Tian Tong protested in Di Xing's mind.

"Wouldn't that be a bit too intimate?"

"Then let's go with Ah Xing, it's decided then."

Okay, okay.

Meanwhile, Leila continued her declaration, "I activate the second effect of [Holy Beast Knight Wind Clan], returning 1 of my banished 'Spirit Beast' cards to my hand? Or to my Extra Deck, performing a Normal Summon of 1 'Spirit Beast' monster from my hand. I return [Spirit Beast Thunderhawk] to my hand, and Normal Summon [Elder of the Spirit Beasts]."

The now white-haired Kamui entered the arena. Although he possessed a Spirit Card, he was still trembling and, without warning, strained his back.

"Oh, how pitiful, Kamui. Her older sister is still a beautiful young girl, while she's become an old man."

"He's Kamui? Vinda's younger brother? In my memory, he was just a baby!" Iwu exclaimed in surprise.

Their discussion caught the attention of the golden dragon in Xinleila's hair.

"Wow, Leila, look at Kaling next to Dixing! That looks like Aria when she was little!"

Xinleila hurriedly turned her head to look. "Wow, it really is! That iconic blue hair and blue eyes, it must be Senior Aria. Senior Aria was so cute when she was little, I want to hug her!" Xinleila rested her chin on her hands and fell into a happy fantasy.

"No, no, this is a duel, I can't think like this!" Xinleila frantically shook her head, pulling her thoughts back to reality. "Applies when summoning [Elder of the Spirit Beasts]. This turn I can add one more Spirit Beast to my Normal Summon. I Normal Summon [Spirit Beast Thunderhawk]."

"Activate the effect of [Spirit Beast Thunderhawk] to banish [Spirit Beast Tamer Vinda] from the Deck."
