Chapitre 48: Break Through!!!
Ryuji stood straight with his arms folded infront of him. With a confident grin on his face, he looked at the shadows holding down Akira and Morgana and roared, "BLAST EM AWAY! CAPTAIN KIDD!"
The skeleton pirate behind him slowly raised its hand as the fire in its eyes flared. Before anyone could realise, bolts of lightning flew down and struck the shadows. The bolts were just too fast, even Axel couldn't keep track of them.
With a hearty laugh, Ryuji dashed forward as he swung his metal bat, destroying the paralysed shadows.
Seeing him make a break towards the other, Axel didn't fall behind either. Using the shadows as platforms, Axel jumped from shadow to shadow, easily reaching Akira and Morgana just at the same time as Ryuji.
The group stood strong with their backs against the wall. Shadows swarmed down the stairs and cornered them. Even as the situation started becoming grim, Axel and the boys refused to give up.
Suddenly, Akira tapped Axel's shoulder and said, "I have a plan but we need your help."
Axel's brows raised slightly as he grinned and replied, "Whatcha need?"
"I need at least 5 seconds. Try and buy us some time."
A fierce light appeared an Axel's as he confidently said, "5 seconds? Alright."
As soon as he finished speaking, mana began to swirl around his left arm. Soon, frost slowly crept up his arm the temperature sharply dropped.
Everyone watching was stunned. Even though they saw his power early, the power behind this attack was at least double the last time.
Actually, the reason for this was pretty simple. When he used 'Frozen hell', it was a combination of fire and ice, 2 opposing natures forcefully combined. Now, he was fully investing the rest of his mana into an ice attack.
While both his ice and fire magic aren't that high, level wise, the power naturally rises the more mana he supplies.
With a wide smirk, Axel slammed his hands onto the ground and roared, "Ice Rink!"
With the exception of a 10 metre radius around him, the floor became covered in a layer of ice. The shadows charging at them fell to the floor while the ones in the back stopped before cautiously walking forward.
At this time, Akira wasn't idle. He turned towards the huge chandelier hanging from the roof as he said, "This is better than expected. Go! Arsene!"
In a burst of flames, Arsene soared to the sky before reaching the chains that connected the chandelier to the roof. Reaching towards the chains, Arsene clutched the chains as a crimson black aura started flowing out from him.
*clang*
Hearing that sound, Axel couldn't help but look up as his eyes widened. The chandelier. Akira actually planned to drop the chandelier on the shadows!
And Axel was sure it was going to work. Because the shadows were all clumped up together, slipping on the icy floor.
*BANG*
The chandelier crashed straight into the group of shadows, causing them to burst into shards of light.
Axel wasted no time, he pointed towards the safe room and yelled, "GO!"
The group turned into streams as the sped through the hall toward the hallway door.
However, was Kamoshida just going to let them go? He stood up with bloodshot eyes as he roared, "GUARDS! WHAT ARE YO-"
Before he could finish, Ryuji suddenly turned towards him as he fiercely yelled, "Captain Kidd!"
The skeleton pirate burst into existence as it aimed it's cannon at Kamoshida and fired a massive bolt of lightning.
Kamoshida couldn't dodged the lightning bolt and was struck. The attack only lasted a couple seconds due to Ryuji being low on stamina but it was enough.
Shadow Kamoshida was literally shocked silly as he collapsed to the ground, unconscious.
Everyone couldn't help but burst into laughter as they continued to escape. It really was too funny. His bushy hair and eyebrows were frizzed up and made him look like a troll.
Naturally, Axel couldn't help but take out his phone and grabbed a couple pictures, earning him a couple eye rolls from both Akira and Ryuji.
Once they entered the safe room, the group didn't hesitate as the continued to escape through the vent.
After a few minutes, everyone was back in reality.
Akira and Ryuji directly collapsed to the floor, shortly followed by Axel and Morgana.
Axel had his eyes closed as he panted, "Is everyone… ok?"
"Tired but still alive…"
"Dude…"
"…I need a catnap."
Axel's eye twitched at the last answer but ignored it as he thought, 'If Morgana can still joke around that means he's fine.'
Suddenly, while Axel was resting, Ryuji's voice boomed as he yelled, "Woah! Morgana's a cat!"
Axel proper himself up as he watched on with a smile. Akira and Ryuji were really fascinated with Morgana's cat-form. Morgana, on the other hand, seemed to access some secondary power source as he energetically leapt off the ground and started arguing with Ryuji.
In return, Ryuji also lost his fatigue as he got up in Morgana's face and started arguing back. Axel gave Akira a wry smile as the pair decided not to get involved as they were way too tired.
---
After a short rest, everyone started to stand up and leave. The place they were heading to was the cafe where Akira lives, LeBlanc.
When everyone was rested and relaxed, both Akira and Ryuji started scolding Axel for just charging forward without a plan.
Since Axel already realised how stupid his actions were, he silently embraced their scolding as he really didn't want a repeat of this to happen in the future.
When the scolding was finished, Axel offered to by them both dinner, to which they shamelessly accepted.
Arriving at LeBlanc, the first thing Akira and Ryuji did after greeting Sojiro was order a ton of food. Both order 5 plates of curry, 5 cups of premium coffee and a slice of cake each.
Axel could only sigh at his choice of friends as he footed the entire bill. Similarly, he ordered himself the exact same as Akira and Ryuji before sitting down next to Ryuji.
Sojiro was speechless at there order. 15 plates of curry! 15 cups of premium coffee! 3 slices of cake! He could only shake his head and bitterly mutter, "Youth…"
