Heroic Spirit Deck in Yu-Gi-Oh!

Chapter 55 - 55

"I use my Mine Spider and your Marie as tributes to summon my monster card, [Revolver Dragon]! "

[Revolver Dragon★★★★★★★ (7 stars) Dark][Machine/Effect][ATK: 2600 DEF: 2000]

"At this moment, I activate [Heroic Spirit—Marie Antoinette]'s special effect! "Hoshino gently tapped the graveyard with her finger, causing a soft glow to emanate from the desolate area.

"Please inherit the soul of France." In the graveyard, Marie clasped her hands in prayer.

[Effect: When this card is sent to the graveyard, you can add 1 [heroic spirit] monster from your deck or graveyard to your hand.]

After completing the

"Though he seems an idiot, Jonouchi isn't entirely wrong." Holmes, now half-transparent, appeared behind Hoshino again. "Hoshino, did you notice anything strange about that coin? "

"Something strange? "Hoshino hadn't noticed anything unusual until Holmes mentioned it. "Did you see something, Mr. Holmes? "

"This is just my speculation; I have no solid evidence yet. I need to observe him tossing the coin once more." Holmes, polishing his pipe, locked his sharp gaze on Keith's right hand as he tossed the coin.

"So, he is likely to succeed again next turn. If Keith has tampered with the coin, it must be to increase the chances of success. I'll set another card and end my turn."

"It's my turn, draw!"Keith, with his usual sly smile, looked at his drawn card.

"I summon a monster in face-down Defense Position, and let's test my luck again." Keith placed a monster card face-down and pulled out his coin once more. "Activate [Revolver Dragon]'s effect! "

Flip: Heads, Flip: Tails, Flip: Heads

"Sorry, I succeeded again! "Keith's exaggerated grin was visible even behind his dark sunglasses.

"Hoshino, he's definitely cheating! "Holmes suddenly exclaimed, finally seeing through Keith's trick.

"Cheating? Is there something wrong with the coin? Are both sides heads? "Hoshino, now fully focused, carefully observed but saw nothing wrong.

"It isn't so straightforward. Holmes shook his head, dismissing Hoshino's hypothesis. "Though it's not both heads, the coin is indeed problematic."

"Not both heads, but still problematic? "Hoshino was even more puzzled by Holmes' explanation.

"This man is smart. Only two of the three coins have been tampered with, however little. From the outside, it's difficult to tell." Holmes explained his theory: "After three observations, including the Mine Spider's coin toss, it's evident. Two coins have a different flipping angle than the third. A skilled gambler can manage a marginally changed coin to land in a certain direction with amazing precision."

"Then I'll expose his trick! "Hoshino, now understanding, whispered angrily.

"No, you can't. You have no proof." Holmes shook his head, stopping Hoshino's impulsive move. "First, from the outside, the coins look normal and require a specific tossing technique to control. Even if you accuse Keith, he won't admit it."

"So, what should I do? I can't let him succeed every time." Hoshino, feeling dejected, lowered her head.

"You can ask him to change the coin, a reasonable request, but it won't change this turn's result. Or..." Holmes, in his half-transparent state, patted Hoshino's head, smiling, "Or you can simply destroy his [Revolver Dragon], which is what you're best at."

"[Revolver Dragon], ready to fire! "Keith yelled excitedly, pointing at Hoshino's Martha, "Fire the death bullet, [Revolver Dragon]! "

Three dark bullets shot towards Martha's seemingly slender body.

"Boss, I'm counting on you! "Hoshino, focusing on the incoming bullets, moved her fingers towards the graveyard.

"Hey, Hoshino, what are you doing? Duel Monsters isn't a game where cheering for your monsters helps." Keith's laugh grew more arrogant.

However, the next scene stunned Keith.

Facing the three nearly invisible bullets, Martha punched out three times with blinding speed.

"Ora! Ora! Ora! "Her solid punches intercepted the bullets, creating bright sparks on impact.

"How is this possible? "Keith couldn't believe his eyes. His [Revolver Dragon]'s effect, which had succeeded twice in a row, was nullified without Hoshino activating any set cards.

"Confused? Wondering why I didn't activate a set card, yet Martha wasn't destroyed?"Hoshino sneered at Keith, "I activate [the body of the saint]'s graveyard effect! "

[Effect: When a [heroic spirit] monster you control is targeted by a monster effect, you can banish this card from your graveyard; negate that effect. This effect cannot be activated the next time this card is sent to the graveyard.]

The faint, holy silhouette of Jeanne d'Arc appeared behind Martha, merging with her.

"I feel the will of the Lord! "
