"Equip Card! [Excalibur]!"
As Hoshino played the last card, the holy sword in her hand transford the abundant magical energy into a golden light.
That sword, that light, embodied the noble dreams held by every soldier who, though sorrowful, had hope in their hearts as they perished on the battlefield in the past, present, and future!
[Excalibur Card Effect: The equipped monster's attack power increases by 500 for each monster card on the field or in the graveyard with [Heroic Spirit] in its na.]
"In this RPG, it seems like there's no concept of a graveyard or hand," Hoshino comnted.
Pointing Excalibur at the dragon horde ahead, Hoshino calmly stated, "Even so, with [Heroic Spirit - Elizabeth] and [Heroic Spirit - Artoria] on the field, the attack power provided by the three Heroic Spirits is enough to surpass any evil dragon!"
[Artoria (Hoshino) ATK 2000 → 3500]
"We… we're helping the Little Manager, too, right?" Elizabeth, feeling her power reflected in the holy sword, asked timidly.
"Of course, Liz is the best~" Hoshino gave Elizabeth a gentle look before raising the holy sword, surrounded by golden light, high above her head.
"Let's go, Yugi! Kaiba!"
"Hmph, you better keep up with my pace!" Kaiba, surprisingly agreeing to the joint attack, dramatically drew a card from his Duel Disk.
"With the power of our friendship combined, we can break through this crisis!" Yugi drew two cards from his Duel Disk with determination.
"Damn it, don't forget about !" Jounouchi, feeling left out of the final blow, complained.
"It's tough holding them off by myself, you know! Trap Card [Magical Arm Shield]! Quick-Play Spell [Scapegoat]!"
Constantly playing defense cards, Jounouchi single-handedly held back the evil dragon horde's assault. "Final attack! [Skull Dice]! Roll two 6s for !"
"Yeah, Jounouchi has always been a reliable duelist; we know that well."
"For a diocre player, you're doing quite well," Kaiba sneered as he launched his final attack.
"Go, Blue-Eyes White Dragon! Activate Spell Card! [Burst Stream of Destruction]!"
[Burst Stream of Destruction Spell Card Effect: If you control [Blue-Eyes White Dragon]: Destroy all monsters your opponent controls. [Blue-Eyes White Dragon] you control cannot attack the turn you activate this card.]
A terrifying energy, several tis more powerful than the usual destructive white light, gathered in the wide-open mouth of the Blue-Eyes White Dragon.
"Let these ignorant lesser dragons witness the true majesty of an emperor!"
The Burst Stream of Destruction, filled with countless destructive forces, annihilated all living things before it. The blinding white light pierced through the Dragon God's domain, tearing through countless evil dragons and reducing them to ashes.
Not to be outdone, Yugi quickly followed Kaiba's lead, playing his cards. "Activate Spell Card! [Bond Between Teacher and Student]! Special Summon [Dark Magician Girl] from the deck!"
[Bond Between Teacher and Student Spell Card Effect: This card can only be activated if you control a [Dark Magician]. Special Summon 1 [Dark Magician Girl] from your hand, deck, or graveyard.]
[Dark Magician Girl★★★★★★ (6 stars)][DARK][Spellcaster/Effect][ATK2000/DEF1700]
"Heehee~" The lively and cute Dark Magician Girl materialized due to the Spell Card's effect.
"When the Dark Magician and his apprentice are together, they can unleash the ultimate magic that can destroy everything!" Yugi tossed his last card and looked towards the monsters he trusted the most.
"Are you ready, Dark Magician? Dark Magician Girl!"
"Yes!" "Yay!" With their wands crossed, the Dark Magician and his apprentice were ready to strike.
"Activate Quick-Play Spell! [Dark Burning Magic]!"
[Dark Burning Magic Quick-Play Spell Card Effect: If you control monsters whose original nas are [Dark Magician] and [Dark Magician Girl]: Destroy all cards your opponent controls.]
The Dark Magician and his apprentice raised their wands high, unleashing a terrifying, pitch-black magical blast.
More powerful than any previous Dark Magic, more splendid than any other, the magic weaved through the dragon horde, exploding at the edge of the Dragon God's domain. The black lightning surrounding the blast, deadly upon contact, annihilated the evil dragons in its path, showcasing the ultimate Dark Magic.
"What reliable partners!" Hoshino exclaid, watching the perfectly synchronized, world-shattering combo attack.
"We can't lose on our side either!"
"Oh! Go for it, Little Manager!"
"Activate the effect of Equip Card [Excalibur]!"
[This effect card can only be used once. Send all cards in your hand to the graveyard, increase the equipped monster's attack power by [the number of cards sent to the graveyard] x100, then destroy all monsters your opponent controls with attack power lower than that of the equipped monster.]
Without needing additional cards in hand, Hoshino's attack power, already at 3500, was enough to surpass all the evil dragons.
"Feel this, evil dragons! The light at the pinnacle of holy swords!" The intense golden light completely engulfed Excalibur, and as Hoshino gripped the sword, it felt as though she was simply holding a beam of pure light.
"This light is the planet's hope...proof of the life that illuminates this world! Behold!—Excalibur!!"
By converting the wielder's magical energy into light and releasing it as a beam, the golden light that destroys everything illuminated the dark Dragon God's domain. It enveloped the remaining evil dragons in the majesty of a king, shattering the peak of the Dragon's Domain.

"Grandma, look at the sky! What a beautiful aurora~" In the night market, a child's innocent voice tugged at Shurima's clothing, pointing to the starless, pitch-black sky.
The sky, which should have been devoid of light, now emitted three dazzling auroras from a distant point.
Blue, purple, and gold lights intertwined, illuminating the night sky over the desert capital.
"Oh! This is..." Shurima's body trembled with excitent, and tears rolled down her aged cheeks.
"The heroes are fighting for this world!"
"Grandma, what's wrong?" The child asked, confused and concerned, as he looked at the trembling, tearful Shurima.
"It's nothing. Grandma is just too happy. This is the first ti in my life I've seen such beautiful light."
"This is indeed the light of hope for this world!"
