Adventuring Other-Worlds With The Adapting System 56 Shadow Of Lus

What was mostly worrying was the fact that a pungent odour persisted everywhere they went. Ryuji had already complained about a hundred time about the smell while even Akira couldn't help but complain.

As they walked through the dark and damp halls of the dungeon, the sound of splas.h.i.+ng quickly alerted them.

Axel and the others instant took refuge in the shadows as Axel peeked around the corner. His eyes widened in horror as he stared at the phallic-shaped shadows as they surrounded a pair of crying fairies.

The first fairy had sc.r.a.pes of cloth covering her body as she tearfully yelled, "Leave us alone! We're all shadows here so shouldn't we be working together?"

A s.a.d.i.s.tic smile appeared on what seemed to be the phallic shadow's face as a l.u.s.tful voice said, "But the king doesn't pay us for our services. When we asked him for payment, guess what he said?"

Another phallic shadow laughed grotesquely as it said, "Take whatever you want as payment, just do you job and keep trespa.s.sers out!"

A third phallic shadow grabbed the crying fairy with its tentacles as it said, "So we're taking you girls as payment. Don't worry, it'll only hurt at first. Then you'll be experiencing pleasure you didn't even know existed."

All three of the shadows burst into a bout of perverted laughter as they pinned down the two fairies.

Tears spilled down their faces as they slowly closed their eyes, hoping that something would save them. And their wish would come true.

Even though Axel was lacking his usual powers, he was still leagues away from normal people when it came to his physical prowess. Before the came here, Ryuji handed him a pair of bra.s.s knuckles.

Giving Akira and Ryuji a signal to attack, Akira, Ryuji and Morgana summoned their personas as Axel dashed forward and struck.

The shadow he hit was sent flying off the ground and ended up landing in the drainage system in the dungeon, whisking it away.

The other two phallic shadows seemed to realise that they were being attack and instantly choose to release the fairies and back away.

The three persona users glared at the phallic shadows as Ryuji said, "Hey! You ugly creeps are about to get the beating of a lifetime!"

The fairies, sitting in the middle of the conflict, looked at everything in confusion.

Suddenly, the one that seemed to be the leader of the phallic-shaped shadows glared at the fairies as he roared, "What are you waiting for!?! Hurry up and help us!!!"

The fairies cowered in fear when a large shadow covered them. Axel gave the pair a gentle look as said, "Don't worry, we'll definitely help you two. Say what you want to say, there's nothing they can do to you while I'm here."

Both fairies eyes locked onto Axel's smiling face before coming to a decision. The second fairy glared at the two shadows before them as she screamed, "I hope you get your s.h.i.+t kicked in, you f.u.c.king a.s.sholes!"

Akira, Axel, Ryuji and Morgana all turned to the gentle looking fairy that just yelled like a sailor. The fairy seemed slightly embarra.s.sed by their stares but made no effort to take back her words.

The phallic shadows shook in anger as the leader roared, "Fine! After we finish with these trespa.s.sers, you'll be begging us to kill you as well."

The fairies cutely screamed, "Meep!" As they flew to Axel and hid behind his back.

The shadows charged towards Axel as they wanted to show the fairies that no one could protect them. At the exact same time, Akira and Ryuji ordered their personas to attack.

However, something intriguing happened. a.r.s.ene's curse and Captain Kidd's lightning fused together as a huge ray of crimson lightning struck the shadows.

Not expecting such an attack, both shadows were sent flying. Stunned, both persona users looked at each other in shock. That shock quickly disappeared as a childish smile appeared on both their faces.

Axel, on the other hand, was stunned as well. He knew d.a.m.n well that their wasn't any sort of fusion attack in persona 5. He would have at least remembered that since it was so bada.s.s.

Deciding to ask his system, Axel mentally said, 'System, why did there attacks fuse?'

Luckily, the system could answer that question as it said, [That would be due to you, host. The wildcard possess an infinite amount of abilities, however, it is up to the holder of the ability to unlock an ability.]

[What you just saw was one of the abilities you unlocked due to the world trial, 'Combo-Attack'. Whenever two or more persona users attack, the attacks will combine together and form a more powerful attack.]

Now knowing what had happened, Axel turned towards Akira, Ryuji and Morgana and yelled, "Guys! Use your attacks together! I'm the reason they combined together!"

The three boys nodded as they adopted wicked grins.

"Go! a.r.s.ene!"

"Blow them away! Captain Kidd!

"Wipe them out, Zorro!"

Unlike when their attack became a crimson lightning bolt, a crimson tornado formed as blue and yellow bolts of lightning flew out from the tornado, striking the shadows.

Just they were about to celebrate, a large tentacle swung towards Axel from the drainage system. Stunned, Axel knew he couldn't dodge as he quickly put up his hands to dodge.

Inches away from being hit, Axel suddenly felt some push him out of the way. With wide eyes, Axel could only watch in horror as the first fairy gave him and the other fairy a light smile.

The tentacle heavily smashed against the fairy's small back, sending her cras.h.i.+ng into the ground. The tentacle didn't stop there though.

It seemed h.e.l.l bent on making them suffer as it slammed down on the fairy once more, creating a small cloud of dust.

With bloodshot eyes, Axel roared as he dashed towards the tentacle. The 'head' of the shadow finally showed itself from the drainage system as it glared at Axel and attacked.

However, who was Axel? His physical capabilities were far higher than the average human as he skillfully zipped in and out of the shadows attacks.

Dodging one last time, Axel gently picked up the injured fairy before quickly making some distance from the shadow.

Once they were far enough, the other fairy swiftly flew from behind his back as she circled the injured fairy and tearfully whispered, "Is she gonna be okay?"

Axel looked at the injured fairy, a sour feeling filling his chest as he softly muttered, "…I don't know."

Being saved by the little fairy, Axel felt indebted to her. Deciding to ask the system for help, Axel mentally said, 'System! Is there any way I can save the fairy!'

[…A shadow is only a physical construct in a metaphysical world. They are only given a form that suits what they represent. There is-]

'I DIDN'T ASK FOR A LESSON! I ASKED IF THERE WAS A WAY TO SAVE HER!!!'

[Apologies. There are two ways to save this shadow. One, you leave her and hope that she can heal on her own, considering any type of medical aid would be unable to effect her.]

'DENIED! NEXT OPTION!'

[Option two, make a pact with her and the other fairy. Take the pair in as your persona.]
