Chapter 325: Trick

Date- 27 Mar 2321

Time- 16:02

Location- Sky Blossom City, Card stadium, Arena no.2

The seven-colored light beam showered on the arena as the disaster rain poured heavily until the wail cries in the arena finally vanished.

Seeing the large bridge of Rainbow descend Corey finally show panicked expression and yelled at her 30 something smoke monsters, ” Sinner disperse, Summon Sin fiend Chimera”

With Corey’s orders, the 30 something smoke monsters dissipated. Then the smoke from the monsters gathered and started to condense into 10 huge 8 meters tall monsters with 3 heads and three pairs of arms.

“What the fuq, can I sue her for copyright?” I blurted out seeing Corey’s smoke monsters turn into 8 meters tall 3 headed and arms monsters.

My transformation was very symmetric because all of my heads and arms were identical but these monsters were an abomination. There was no symmetry in the monster’s body, one pair of arms was short, one pair of arms was big. One head was too small, another head was without a neck. These monsters were the definition of freak. How are they even able to move with such an unbalanced body?

Soon I understood why Corey canceled her previous summons and summoned these abominations. As I watched each one of the abominations sacrifice themselves one by one to the incoming rainbow beam. The scene was like moths running into flames.

Now I understood despite her claims Corey knew her smoke monsters can be killed with my combo skill holy rainbow beam purification so instead of losing her elite forces she decided to use her reserve forces to shield her from the combo skill. And her plan succeeded.

As the 3 headed abominations sacrificed one after the other to the descending Rainbow beams, the rainbow beam’s power decreased after purifying each of one of the abominations.

By the time the holy rainbow beam descended to the arena the holy rainbow bean was nothing more than a shade of rainbow beam. Leaving Corey unscathed.

“I thought that they were immortal. What happened? Why did they die?” I taunted Corey after debunking her claims about her summons being immortal and unkillable.

“Who said that they were dead? Gather Sin fiend Chimera” Corey responded to my taunt with a sneer and another batch of Sin fiend Chimera.

“WTF? Summoning new summons of the same kind doesn’t mean that they are immortal. Corey, don’t be a sour loser.” I asked impatiently, seeing Corey shamelessly condense another batch of Sin fiend Chimera and call them the same batch as the previous one and claim her monsters to be immortal. Are you a fool or are you trying to make a fool out of others?

“Am I, look carefully. They are the same monsters they used their bodies to protect me from your combo skill. If not for protecting me they could have easily dodged your attack.

Wyatt, just give up before I beat the shit out of you and force you to surrender” giving successfully defended against my Rainbow beam Corey once again returned to her casual self as if, if she wanted, she could end this duel anytime she wanted.

I keenly glanced at the smoke abominations and realized what Corey said was true. These are the same monsters as the previous one that sacrificed to stop the holy rainbow beam.

But how? Isn’t the darkness rule weak against holy attribute rules? Why aren’t these monsters purified? I just saw them get purified. Then why are they still alive? Are they immortal or is there a trick to it?

But why did the smoke abominations sacrifice themselves to stop the holy rainbow beam, they could have just covered and guarded Corey until the rainbow beam passed?

Asking the right question I finally found the right answer. What was the need for the monsters to sacrifice themselves? Was it to protect Corey or was it to protect 7th hell: Eternal agony.

All 10 of the Sin fiend Chimera sacrificed because they wanted to stop the holy rainbow beam from reaching the 7th hell: Eternal agony. I can be sure about this because when all the 10 Sin Fiend Chimera had been purified by the Holy rainbow beam, a residual of the holy rainbow fell on the 7th hell: Eternal agony causing the dark red burning flame to recede.

From this, I can conclude that

They were not trying to protect Corey they were trying to protect the 7th hell: Eternal agony. Why try to protect the flame? What makes the flames so important is that the monsters would sacrifice themselves to protect the flames.

Come to think of it Corey did not summon these monsters using cards. It’s clear they are part of her Ego fire. But, where is her ego fire? I did not see being summoned. Is it hiding in the flames covering the arena? Or the flames covering the arena is Corey’s Ego fire. Why not ask her?

“Corey, where is your ego fire? I don’t see it ” this question would clear a lot of doubts about Corey’s ego fire and these smoke monsters.

“You are not strong enough to see my ego fire” Corey domineeringly answered.

“Is it hiding in the flames covering the arena or those flames your ego fire” Corey’s ability is tricky and until I fully grasp the required information it will be impossible for me to break the immortal tricks of these smoke monsters?

“I see, you want to gather related information on my ego flame and decipher the immortality of my sinner’s army. Impressive instead of getting overwhelmed you can maintain your calm and think straight under all the pressure. Good, I am immersed.

But aren’t you too naive to think that I will do all the work for you? Try harder or just surrender.” It’s not a surprise that Corey guessed the motives behind my questions to her. Because I could not be more blunt and so obvious. It would be shocking if she did not realize the motives behind my questions. But thanks to her ambiguous answers I found the answer to the questions I was searching for.
