The huge, speeding thorn wheel crushed Ibaraki Douji's body.

Ibaraki Douji: LP 4000 → LP 3500.

"What a despicable move!"

Ibaraki Douji groaned in pain, complained, and began to act.

"Witness the might of the Oeyama Oni! First, I activate the Spell Card [Oeyama Oni]! This card can be activated after discarding up to three cards from your hand. Then, from your Deck, I Special Summon an equal number of Servants in the [Oeyama] slot at the cost of being unable to attack that turn!"

Ibaraki Douji immediately activated a card that could fill the field, "I discard two cards from my hand and summon [Ibaraki Douji] and [Shuten Douji]!"

Jiang You took a look at Ibaraki Douji's graveyard, where there was a [Blue Oni]. He thought the reason why she didn't summon three riders at once was because she thought they were too weak.

"Summoning two at once is terrifying! I'm activating the effect of [Yao Cui (Swimsuit)] to negate your [Oegi no Hit]!"

It’s a great deal to exchange three cards for one effect. If not now, when?

The Horned God opened his huge single eye, and as the red light cannon shot out, Ibaraki's card was also melted in the light.

"Surprisingly, so strong!"

Ibaraki then took a closer look at the huge white fur ball beneath Yao Cui. She had previously thought it was Yao Cui's mount, but she hadn't expected it to exude such a powerful divine aura. She now realized that the red Servant on it was merely an accessory.

"So, do you want to surrender?"

Ibaraki now only has two cards left in his hand, while Jiang You still has three cards in his backcourt that have not been opened. Normally, at this time, you should surrender immediately.

"How is that possible? As a demon, the word 'surrender' doesn't even exist in my vocabulary! I activate the Spell Card, [One Hundred Demons' Feast]! This card banishes any number of cards in your Graveyard. For each card banished, you pay 1000 Life Points and draw a card from the top of your Deck. The Life Points I have to pay are..."

Ibaraki Douji gritted his teeth and said, "3000 points!"

"Uhhhhhhhhhh!!!"

Ibaraki Douji: LP 3500 → LP 500.

This guy didn't even think about surviving the next round, and planned to fight Jiang You in this round.

Ibaraki, who had replenished his hand to four cards at once, began his counterattack. "I activate the Spell Card [Demon's Head], pay half of my life points, and Special Summon [Shuten-doji] from my Deck!"

Although it was the story of Shuten-douji having his head severed, it is reasonable to use it as her summoning medium.

The aroma of wine filled the air, and a barefoot, lazy loli (?) came to the battlefield drunkenly.

【Shuten-doji】Attack power 2800.

"It feels like I've been summoned this way many times. Hmm, is it Ibaraki this time? Well done, well done. It's rare for me to get some fresh air. I was almost suffocating."

Ibaraki blushed slightly when he was praised by Shuten: "Shuten! Once I defeat this guy, I can let you out more often!"

"I'm very happy that you have this thought."

Shuten looked across at Cernunnos, who also possessed a portion of divinity, and so could clearly sense the pressure from the Horned God. "Don't get your hopes up. I think we should have a few more drinks now."

As he spoke, Shuten began to pour the wine.

Jiang You looked at Shuten's gourd and, on a whim, threw a bottle of high-end wine to her. Jiang You couldn't even pronounce the name of this thing, but he bought it anyway because it looked expensive. There are many heroic spirits who love to drink, so wouldn't this be useful?

"Ah, are you trying to please me? I'm a ghost."

Despite saying that, Shuten still unscrewed the bottle cap and smelled it. Her slightly flushed cheeks showed that she was quite satisfied.

"You've put a lot of thought into it. This method makes my heart beat faster. After all, I died from drinking fine wine. Could it be that it was poisoned?"

Jiang You thought it was possible. After all, he was now the Imperial Master of the Fairy Kingdom. Poisoning wine was a traditional skill. He joked, "You never know. Maybe it's a deadly poison that even the Lord God couldn't handle. Aren't you looking forward to living a life of drunkenness and dreams?"

"Hmm...that's really good."

As a result, Jiang You received a lot of rewards from Shuten in his emails.

247

Chapter 247: You can turn over the Shuten sign from now on.

For an anti-hero like Shuten, normal communication methods will not have any effect. However, Jiang You's somewhat mentally ill way of dialogue has actually gained a lot of favorability.

"Ha, it's really good wine, but the quantity is too small."

Shuten drank the wine Jiang You threw at her in one gulp. She pointed her index finger at her lips, her hazy eyes filled with smiles. "It really is just wine. You're trying to please me like this. What do you like about me? Let me guess. Could it be this body?"

"I do want you."

Jiang You knew that this sentence was ambiguous, but Shuten would probably like this way of conversation.

Yao Cui seemed to have confirmed something, and she looked at Jiang You with even more contempt. She felt that she should tell Morgan about this.

Noticing Yao Cui's gaze, Jiang You gave him a middle finger and retorted. After exchanging a glare with Yao Cui, Jiang You looked at Shuten-doji and said, "If you come, I'll give you as much wine as you want. My terms are simple. Besides not allowing you to attack humans, I won't impose any restrictions on you. All I need is for you to agree to hand over your cards to me. How's that for a deal?"

"Do you mean that if I agree, I'll get the chance to manifest like Ibaraki? Ah, this really, this really makes me extremely excited."

Shuten-doji does have this idea, that only by having consciousness can one get more fun.

"Shuten, don't listen to him. As long as I beat him, everything he owns will be ours!"

Ibaraki is very familiar with Shuten, and Shuten's previous attitude showed that she had a little interest in Jiang You, which was not a good sign for her.

"It sounds very generous, but if I meet a delicious guy, I can't help myself at all. For example-"

Shuten-doji looked at Yao Cui, his eyes filled with desire, naked (?) making Yao Cui shrink his neck. "——This girl, although she smells disgusting and pus-filled, she exudes a fruity fragrance in her bones. I really want to dig out her bones and taste her. I'm afraid I can't abide by your conditions."

"If it's Yao Cui, then there's no problem."

Even if Shuten really wanted to attack Yao Cui, it would not be so easy. After all, Yao Cui has the strength of a first-class person.

"Jiang You?!"

Yao Cui hadn't expected Jiang You to say such cold words. He had clearly said before that he wanted to protect humanity. In his eyes, she was no better than an ordinary person, right? Thinking of this, she stared at Jiang You fiercely, "Come back and wait for me. I'll break your legs!"

"Isn't this confidence in you?"

Jiang You felt that for the sake of Shuten, Yao Cui's favorability could be sacrificed a little. After all, there was still a long time to go, so he could continue to improve it.

"Don't think you've won, asshole!"

Seeing that everyone was ignoring him, Ibaraki Douji finally exploded, "I activate the quick-play magic card, [One Hundred Demons Night Parade]! To activate, designate a [Oeyama Demon King]! Banish the top ten cards of your deck, and for each Servant among them, increase their attack power by 300 points until the end of the turn! And the designated Servant will not be affected by the effects of Spell or Trap cards! The activation and effects of this card cannot be negated!"

"Don't think about it!"

Jiang You opened the second face-down card, "I activate the quick-attack magic card [Origin Bullet]! If it hasn't taken effect yet, I will destroy it directly. I will negate the effect of [Shuten-doji] and destroy it!"

"It's not over yet. I activate the effect of [Shuten-doji]. Once per turn, when a card is designated as the target of the effect, you can send the top card of your deck to the Graveyard. If it is a Servant, this effect is negated!"

Ibaraki Douji launched a desperate counterattack. If it weren't for the Servant, she would have been defeated.

The card was turned over, and it was [Ibaraki Douji]!

"Look, this is the bond between me and Shuten!!!"

Ibaraki Douji successfully negated the effect of the Origin Bullet.

"If you do well, you might actually win. I'm looking forward to it."

"Of course! As long as you're here, this place is Mount Oe! There are five servants excluded! Shuten's attack power will be increased by 1500 points in total!"

The power from other demons turned into resentment as the effect was activated and poured into Shuten-doji's body. The power of the great demon once overwhelmed the Great Horned God.

"Alright, alright, with this kind of momentum, even Yamata no Orochi can't match it!"

[Shuten-doji] Attack power 2800 → 4300

"I enter the battle phase! [Shuten-doji] attacks [Yocho (Swimsuit)]! Everything you own will be plundered by us, the demons of Mount Oe! With this one strike, I'll chop off your head!"

Ibaraki declared victory, looking like he had already won.

"But with 4300 attack power, there's no way you can finish me off in one go, right?"

Jiang You looked at the two cards in Ibaraki's hand and asked, "Or do you have a card that can win the game in one blow?"

"You guessed it, this is Shuten's Noble Phantasm! I activate the Quick-Play Spell Card [Thousands of Purple and Crimson Godly Poison]! After activating this card, forcibly switch your opponent's Servant to Defense Position, and reduce its Attack and Defense to 0 before the end of the turn!"

Ibaraki Douji slapped the card onto the field.

"Shuten, I leave it to you!"

"Ah, since you've treated me well before, it's my turn to return the favor. Although it originally belonged to Minamoto no Raikou, this wine now belongs exclusively to me. So sink, decay, and drown in this drunken dream—a thousand purple and red divine and demonic poison!"

Shuten-doji poured his own wine on the ground. The wine on the ground rippled and turned the entire ground into a pool of wine. The aroma of wine that could intoxicate one's bones continued to rise from the pool of wine. Yao Cui and the Great Horned God staggered into a drunken dream.

【Yao Cui (Swimsuit)】

Attack 3000 → Defense 0

"Shuten-douji's attacks can penetrate defenses, so this attack is equivalent to Shuten directly attacking you who is completely defenseless."

Ibaraki Douji laughed loudly. Because of the [One Hundred Demons Night Parade], Jiang You's backcourt attack was ineffective against [Shuten Douji]. In her opinion, Jiang You had no way of blocking this attack.

"You lose, victory belongs to us Dajiangshan!"

"What a shabby force! You're the only one in Dajiangshan."

"Stop nagging! As long as you're here, Shuten will always be by my side. As a reward for providing me with my Noble Phantasm, I won't attack you for now."

Ibaraki Douji is already imagining a bright future, although all this guy has in his mind is plundering and holding banquets, and most ghosts are such simple creatures.

"But you haven't won yet. Ibaraki, have you ever heard of a hand pit?"

Jiang You showed the card in his hand. "Just because it doesn't take the effects of Spell and Trap Cards doesn't mean it doesn't take the effects of Servants, right? I activate the effect of [Morning Glory] and transform [Shuten-doji] into Defense Position!"

Jiang You’s deck has two hand traps that can block attacks. Even if they are not linked with his own deck, the effect is very good. Jiang You will definitely bring all of them.

As the little brown loli (?) appeared on the field with tears in her eyes, Shuten-doji abruptly stopped his attack.

[Shuten-doji] Attack 4300 → Defense 2000.

"You, you, you! How despicable!"

Ibaraki Douji never expected that the card that Jiang You didn't take would become the last straw that broke the camel's back.

"I was looking forward to it, what a pity."

Shuten-doji sighed, it turned out that Ibaraki couldn't win.

"If I want to get some fresh air now, I'll have no choice but to sell my body to you, right?"

"I'm sorry, Shuten."

Ibaraki Douji's head drooped, his flaming golden hair also hung together, and he looked completely listless.

"It's okay, Ibaraki. I don't mean to blame you. He has a main god-level servant in his deck. No matter how confident he is, he will still lose."

Shuten rubbed Ibaraki's head. She was more like Ibaraki's elder than his companions.

"It's just that I don't want to miss this opportunity to travel the world."

"Well then, sir. From now on, I look forward to your guidance."

Shuten agreed to Jiang You's proposal, and three of her Servant Cards were sent to Jiang You's mailbox. This gave Jiang You one more Servant to summon. Jiang You didn't really have much demand for Oeyama's deck, he just wanted to collect stamps.

"Alright, I admit defeat. Ibaraki Douji, it's time for you to end your turn!"

Jiang You urged Ibaraki to end the duel. He was in a hurry to return to Camelot to catch up with the filming set in Chaldea. With Merlin around, these guys might run away.

"You don't need to remind me, I will keep my promise!"

Ibaraki curled his lips. It was obviously he who summoned Shuten, but Shuten had reached a consensus with his enemy, "Just wait, I will challenge you again!"

"welcome any time."

With Shuten's summoning power, Ibaraki will definitely not be able to escape, so he can still fulfill this small request.

Ibaraki ended his turn, and as Jiang You's turn began, the speeding gears took away Ibaraki's last bit of health.

Ibaraki LP 250 → LP 0!

At Dark Yugi's request, Ibaraki will now be completely under Jiang You's command. The (fake) Fairy Kingdom is thriving. Although this development method is completely different from normal governance and more like collecting Pokémon, you can tell whether the national strength has increased.

"But if you want to summon Shuten, you can only do it in a duel, right?"

Even though Ibaraki lay weak and dead on the ground, his mind was still full of Shuten. "How are you going to fulfill your promise with Shuten? Or are you just trying to deceive us like those bastard samurai?"

"That's the question."

Seeing that Ibaraki seemed to still be upset about being deceived by Shuten and the poisoned wine and drugs, Jiang You gave her an injection of cardiotonic.

"The moment Shuten agrees to me, I'll be able to summon her."

With the sound of Jiang You snapping his fingers, the lazy loli (?) appeared in front of everyone.
