Adventuring Other-Worlds With The Adapting System 57 Gem And Ini

He turned towards Ryuji and Akira and yelled, "Guys! Buy me a couple minutes!"

Akira nodded while Ryuji continued to fight with a wide smirk on his face.

Axel gave the pair a thankful nod before he quickly exited the battlegrounds. Now that he had time to relax, he softly laid the fairy on the ground.

Seeing her struggling to even breath pained Axel, so he wasted no time as he said, "I have a way to heal you but… you need to become my persona."

The uninjured fairy grabbed his cheeks and pulled as hard she could while her face became red, in both anger and overexertion. It was plain as day she didn't like the idea of her friend becoming his persona.

Heck, even the injured fairy seemed reluctant. Of course it would end up like this. When a shadow becomes a persona, they lose their freedom. They can't explore the world, they can't do the things they want to do.

Unlike naturally made personas, when a shadow became a persona, it was like becoming a mindless slave.

Sure, Akira made it look easy in the game but the shadows had thoughts and dreams as well. They were literally the physical manifestation of the dreams and desires of humanity.

The little fairy's infront of him only desired two things, to explore the world and each other. However, no matter how bad he felt, it was the only way Axel could use to help them.

Suddenly, a thought popped up in his head. The fairies gave him a weird look when his eyes lit up but he ignored them as he mentally said, 'System, is there anyway I can leave them their freewill when I take them in?'

Not even a second pa.s.sed as the system replied, [Yes, there is host. The wildcard is fueled by the users 'desire' and grants you a form of power. However, be warned host. The wildcard is as it's name suggest, a wildcard. It is completely unpredictable and the system cannot guarantee it's a.s.sistance.]

Seeing the small fairy cough up blood, Axel's eyes hardened as he muttered, "It'll have to do..."

He lowered his body until he was staring into the fairies eyes as he said, "Please, let me take you two in as personas. I know your afraid of losing your freedom but I need you to trust me… which is kinda weird, considering we just met."

By the end of his sentence, Axel was blus.h.i.+ng as he ruffled his hair embarra.s.sment. However, this was what the girls wanted to see. They didn't want any sweet words or empty promises, they just wanted the truth.

And the truth of the matter was, Axel really was thinking of their wellbeing. The fairies glanced at each other before the uninjured one looked towards Axel and, surprisingly, bowed her head and sincerely requested, "Please, help my older sister. Please take care of the two of us from now on, Master."

Axel was surprised but quickly collected himself as he smiled, "Sure!"

Suddenly, a gentle ray of light enveloped the two fairies. The pair glanced at each other and stared at each other. As a few seconds pa.s.sed by, a small smile appeared on both their faces as they turned towards Axel and curtseyed.

Worry painted Axel's face as he could see the injured fairy forcing herself to bow. But he didn't interrupt them because he could feel their determination to do things properly.

Suddenly, the fairies underwent a huge change. Their red and scruffy hair became a very light blue. It grew longer and longer until it just reached the end of their tails bones as it took on a rather smooth and silk look.

Their monotone grey eyes also changed, becoming an illuminescent bright gold. The fairies gazed into Magna's eyes with trust as they said in sync, "We are Gemini… the shadow that represents duality… we offer you our power. In exchange, we only ask to be cared for…"

The fairies burst into motes of light. The motes of light then quickly gathered together, forming a mask. It was relatively simple eye mask with a tiny angel's wing motif on the corner of each side.

Before Axel could react, the masked quickly dashed into his face, bursting into motes of light once again before being absorbed into into his body.

Suddenly, a torrent of unruly flames swallowed Axel whole. Unlike when Akira and Ryuji transformed, Axel's flames were so big that they created a beacon of sorts.

Akira and Ryuji actually noticed his transformation and they were quite a bit away from him.

The flames slowly started to get smaller as they seemed drawn to something within. Once the flames were completely gone, what stood in its place was a king.

Wearing a simple yet elegant suit of dark silver armour, Axel studied his new look in shock. A golden crown rested atop his head as blood red rubies adorned it.

Axel glanced at his hands, studying the armour for a few more seconds before breaking into a smile. His persona form looked exactly like a dark silver version of Saber from the fate series, only male.

Just as he was about to start fan-boying, an unexpected voice joyfully echoed in his head, "Wow… it's actually really nice in here~. Don't you think so too?"

A second voice appeared as it replied in a dull tone, "I have to agree with you. This place is so s.p.a.cious and inviting, I kind of never want to leave."

Axel scratched the side of his forehead as he mentally muttered, 'Uh… is that you Gemini?'

A small gasp rang out in his head as the joyful voice yelled, "Is that you master? Where are you? You need to see this place! It's so beautiful!"

Axel heard a small sigh in his mind as the dull voice said, "Gem, this world is master's mind. I don't think he'll ever be able to come here. But, as my sisters says, this place is truly beautiful master. It's a shame you'll never be able to visit."

"Ini, why so you gotta be such a downer~. We should be celebrating! Not only are you fully healed but we managed to evolve as well!"

Listening to the two chatter on, a smile appeared on his face as he said, 'It's good to hear that your doing well Ini. Oh, I mean, if it's alright for me to call you that.

It went silent for a few seconds before a quiet voice muttered, "Thank you… it's fine master."

Axel was about to reply when a shocked gasp echoed in his head as Gem screamed, "Oh my G.o.d! Ini! Your blus.h.i.+ng!"

He could practically hear the panic in her voice as she screamed back, "I-I am not! Don't start making things up Gem!"

Before they could start arguing, Axel interrupted them as he said, 'Alright girls, that's enough. I don't want you fighting inside my head. I feel like you'll give me a headache if you do.'

The duo gave a curt, "Fine~." In reply before falling silent.

Axel thanked the girls before turning towards the battlefield. A wide grin appeared on his face as he lightly said, "Who wants revenge?"

He could practically feel the grins on their faces as they slowly said, "I do~."
