TeamAAMY: She is already part of the story. And we are using her canon design.

Temporal King: Well, every girl is different.

Neo Infinity: But the boost in making Strength Persona!

PhantomDark: We try our best, it is mainly Ghost who does that wonder.

Xerzo LotCN: DUDE! 1, punctuation is your FRIEND! And B, Why are you treating your review like a reaction video?!

Shooting Star Dragon 3000: It's both

Tony Anderson: The titles are the last thing thought up. I decide on them right before I upload the chapter so the title fits what happens IN the chapter, since we never know how long a chapter is until it is finished. And sometimes I mess with pre-made chapters lengths during editing.

Here are some reviews answered by Ghost:

Dr Pest: You've got to wait and see what we have planned.

Tony Anderson: Yeah, things will happen within the group with Makoto.

Obiki Doragon: You don't know the half of what will be planned.

Shooting Star Dragon 3000: Insert El Dorado Meme 'Both'? 'Both'? 'Both'. 'Both' is good.

StevieBond: Yeah, she will.

PhantomDark: Well, we do our best with the scenarios.

Neo Infinity: Yeah, the Twin's Fusion Social Link is annoying, but it's worth it in the end. That's why this story takes a long time, we're doing over 500 hours of gameplay in a large story.

adamse0530: Our favourite gremlin will have her chance! I swear it!

UltimateCCC: Oh yeah. Also, how did you know what would happen with the Twins?! laughs

Temporal King: Don't worry, we've got things sorting out with them.

Clown2107: That's certainly an idea, but not what we've got in mind.

AnderBander: First part, we've got an ending in mind. Second part, that's going into spoilers.

To everyone: Thank you for the birthday messages.

Disclaimer: We do not own Persona 5. That belongs to Atlus.

Persona 5 New Game Plus, Joker's Second Chance
Chapter 49
The Doctor Is In


It was a while later, Ren had contacted Tae, Futaba, Ann, Shiho and Sadayo to meet up in LeBlanc. This had been weighing on him since the previous night, and it needed to be said to them. There was no way he could keep this secret from them without feeling guilty.

"So, what's going on? What's happening?" Sadayo asked as she was brought to LeBlanc, while having a cup of coffee to act as a 'customer' as an excuse to visit

"Thanks for coming everyone. I asked you here because there's something important I need to tell you." Ren spoke.

"What is it?" Shiho asked in confusion.

"Is it something 'perverse'?" Futaba teased.

"Futaba!" Ann groaned

"Well, she is TECHNICALLY not wrong." Ren flinched, glad that LeBlanc was currently empty. Even Sojiro was out.

"Explain, Guinea Pig." Tae asked as she crossed her legs and arms.

"Yes ma'am." Ren mumbled "Okay. So... sometimes I go to the Red Light District-"

"You what!?" The girls asked.

"Nice. I-I mean, you what?" Futaba smirked before taking it back.

"Not like that." Ren groaned "I have an informant in a bar called Crossroads up there. I also ocasionally work as a bar assistant there to. Her name is Ohya. Ichiko Ohya."

"Ichiko... Is she the one that has those articles about the Phantom Thieves?" Tae asked.

"That's her." Ren nodded. "Payment for her help."

"So she's an 'informant' for us?" Makoto asked.

"In a way. I help her out, she helps us out." Ren answered. "It's a give and take thing. She's an older woman and... She drunkenly kissed me a while ago. And based off what she said last time... Pretty sure she wants to go out with me."

STARE...!

The girls looked at him intensely as they heard that. But if it was a 'drunken' kiss, it wasn't too big a problem.

"How was it?" Futaba and Ann asked.

"Huh?" Ren blinked

"The kiss. How was it?" Ann asked.

"Um. Not... bad. Kinda." He admitted. "I didn't really kiss back."

"So, what do you want to do with this?" Tae asked as she looked at him.

"Huh?" Ren blinked

"Do you want to lead her on? Or do you want to bring her into our little 'group'?" She continued.

"I... Well I did ask to see everyone for a reason..." Ren commented, sighing softly. Kinda not wanting to say it

"Is there a picture of her?" Shiho asked as she wanted to know what Oyha looked like.

"Jealous, Shiho?" Futaba asked as she looked online.

"One sec." Ren said, quickly texting Ohya. Asking for a picture

"You have her number?" Makoto asked.

"Yeah, it's mostly for Phantom Thief stuff though." He admitted.

Ping!

"Ah, here we go." Ren responded as he brought out a photo of Ohya that she just texted. He turned his phone around, showing the pictue

On the phone, the girls saw Ohya sitting at her desk where she was wearing her black shirt with the long white-sleeved undershirt, and her glasses on her forehead.

"Huh, she's cute." Tae commented.

Ren blinked gently at that, smiling as Tae seemed on board with her.

"Yeah, I can see why you got attracted to her." Ann added.

"She has big boobies." Futaba grinned

"Futaba!" Makoto commented.

"What? Ann and Tae have got big boobies. What's wrong with that? This adds to the ship list!" Futaba defended.

"I beg your pardon?" Makoto asked, thinking she swore.

"My ship list. I've got names for every one of us with Ren, and a bit with each other." Futaba listed off.

"Err, explain please?" Shiho asked.

"Okay, ShuAnn. Ren and Ann, obviously. He and I are Shutaba! Hehehe~! We have Shien, for Shiho and Ren! Ahiho being Ann and Shiho. Because besties, and 'besties'." Futaba responded. "And~ Makoann for..."

"Okay, okay. I get it." Makoto blushed.

"... Do you have one for me?" Tae asked.

"Oh yeah, I do," Futaba smirked. "It's called ShuKemi."

"Nya, ha, ha, ha! Oh, that's funny!" Morgana laughed while he was on the bed.

"Morgana! Who let you downstairs!" Ren huffed with a slight frown, making the cat laugh louder

"You know, now that I see her... I think it's okay." Shiho answered, giving her vote.

"Really?" Sadayo asked.

"Well, I'd be a hypocrite if I didn't want another lady involved... plus, you and Tae are here, -so-... You know." Shiho explained.

"Well, you know I'm alright with another lady involved." Tae answered. "Makes things a bit more interesting. And Sadayo and I will keep an eye on her."

"Yes, well. You said that she's a reporter?" Sadayo asked.

"Yeah, she is." Ren nodded, reassuring her.

'Hmm... She seems to be in her mid-twenties...' She thought to herself.

"Bought that." He nodded

"Hmm... another new ship name..." Futaba muttered to herself.

"Renya? Shuya? Shya? Rehya?" Futaba mumbled to herself, giggling "Ohen?"

"What's with the shu in those ship names of yours?" Makoto asked softly

"Based off Shujinkō, one of the Japanese term for hero or protagonist." Futaba hummed gently

"Of course, you'd come up with those." Shiho deadpanned, to which Futaba just chuckled it off. Her little gremlin like giggle echoing in the room, as she gave a little wiggle in her seat

"So... What was the final choice again?" Ann asked

The girls all looked at each other before nodding "Yes."

"Great, I'll let her know." He smiled and responded.

'That was quick.' They thought to themselves. About... well... all of it

"You think she'll become a Phantom Thief?" Ann asked.

"I don't think so." Ren shook his head. "She isn't a fighter. Not how we are."

"Did you see US as fighters?" Sadayo asked

"Not really." Ren admitted with a laugh "But you are great."

"Well, considering what's up... calling card?" Shiho commented

"What? Why?" Ann asked.

"Yusuke's got a big project he's working on and needs to dedicate his time to it... and Ryuji has homework to catch up on." Futaba answered. "I texted them while you where all talking."

"Of course Ryuji is behind." Makoto and Sadayo sighed together

"Ooh... did I drop Ryuji in it?" Futaba flinched.

"Don't worry about it." Ann sighed. "We're use to it."

"So, does this conclude this meeting?" Sadayo asked kidnly.

"Oh, they're meetings now are they Becky?" Tae teased

"Oh god, please don't embarrass me." Sadayo whispered, embarrassed by this.

"Ahem, I-I think that we're good here." Makoto admitted.

"Yeah, it's always nice to see you all." Ren said awkwardly

"Don't be a stranger, Ren." Ann responded, as they each got to their feet.

"You did your homework, right?" Shiho whispered to him.

He nodded subtly and reassured them. He began to give hugs and kisses on their the cheek or the lips, depending on what people preferred at the moment.

"We'll see you later." Tae spoke as she and the others left, except for Futaba.

"Later!" Futaba waved

Soon, Futaba, Ren and Morgana were the only ones left in the cafe. "So, what do you want to do?" Ren asked.

"Well, look at my promise list." She answered as she brought it out. "'Learn about my generation'."

"Hey you two, behaving?" Sojiro asked as he walked inside

"Yeah, we are." Ren answered, not lying but also glad that the others had left before Sojiro turned up.

"Just doing my promise list. Oh! I think I can also do 'have a normal conversation with a stranger my age'." Futaba pointed out.

Sojiro smiled at them, while going behind the counter.

"Wow, you two have gotten close." He commented. "Not like that's a bad thing though."

"Well, yeah." Futaba answered. "Ren's been a big influence on me."

"I just hope that we can stay like this." Sojiro admitted.

"Sojiro, don't worry, it'll be alright." Ren reassured.

"I think that man will be leaving us alone." Futaba added.

"What makes you think that?" Sojiro asked as he looked at the two of them, his eyebrow raised

"W-well. We just have a good feeling, that's all." Futaba answered nervously.

"Uh-huh." He didn't believe them.

"Sojiro, people change." Ren answered. "I did, you helped change me."

"I think it was the opposite." Sojiro responded with a chuckle

Ren smiled as he heard that, seeing Sojiro as he was the first time around. The father figure to both him and Futaba. "Don't worry, it's gonna be okay." Ren reassured him.

"If you say so." Sojiro answered.

"We're gonna head out, okay? I've got plans on my promise list. 'Talking to someone of my generation'." Futaba informed.

"Oh? Okay." Sojiro responded. "Look after her, Ren."

"I will." He nodded as the two headed out of the cafe. Both Ren and Futaba left for the city, going to the diner, somewhere close by but also familiar so it wasn't too daunting.

"So, the diner. Not a bad choice, right?" Futaba asked. "Y'know, I heard about the unlimited fountain drinks at places like these." Ren chuckled as he knew Futaba liked her vices. "So where are they? I don't see them anywhere." She groaned a little.

"Amamiya?" A familiar voice spoke as it approached the table.

"Mishima?" Ren asked as he looked at him.

"Oh crap, you're with a girl?" He asked, apologising that he might've interrupted something.

"You know this guy?" Futaba asked.

"He's in my class." Ren answered.

"Oh, maybe I can ask him to help me break my promise." Futaba responded.

"'Promise'?" Mishima asked before Futaba began to explain her situation to him. "... so... you just want a regular old conversation?"

"Yep." She nodded.

"So, wait. You're saying that you, a girl, want to talk... to me?" Mishima clarified.

"Yep again." Futaba responded.

"I see. Well in that case, I guess I don't have a choice. Nope, none whatsoever. I'll just help you out."

"Really? Thanks! I'm Futaba Sakura, don't you forget it." Futaba smiled.

"Err, okay. I'm Yuuki Mishima, but everyone calls me 'Mishima'." He responded.

"Hmm... It seems like help always comes my way when I need it most." Futaba muttered. "Maybe my luck stat's very high?"

"I think you're right." Ren chuckled as heard that.

"Heck yeah! I could probably roll a nat twenty right now if you asked me to!" Futaba smiled.

"Err... what?" Mishima asked himself as he sat down and listened to Futaba talking to him.


*minutes later*

"... So you want to know about our generation? I doubt it'll be easy to explain." Mishima commented.

"Youth... the unknown frontier." Futaba muttered.

"Hmm, maybe I should talk about my hobbies?" Mishima whispered, before speaking up. "Do you like computers?"

"Hmm, I'm always online." Futaba answered.

"Me too!" Mishima smiled. "What sites do you use? I usually keep to forums, myself. Or are you streaming? I'd gladly subscribe to your channel. W-w-wait, do you by chance run a... r-racy channel?" He asked nervously, keeping it quiet.

'Mishima...' Ren thought to himself.

"You need to be super courageous to do that, though it certainly isn't unwelcome... Kek." He muttered.

"Whoa, that's the first time I've heard anyone actually say that out loud... kek!" She responded.

"H-huh? That's all you took from that?" He asked.

"Ah! I've got it!" She spoke in a 'eureka moment'. "This overwhelmingly forgettable appearance, generic speech style and a total lack of sex appeal... Nishima, are you an NPC?"

Ren flinched as he heard that and quietly chuckled. "Savage."

"But it'd be even more savage to lie about what he is!" Futaba responded. "And besides, NPCs are an important piece in the jigsaw puzzle of gaming!"

"You're not making this any better," Mishima mumbled. "And more importantly, my name isn't 'Nishima'."

"Anyway, I'm glad you spawned here." She answered. "I killed two promises with one Nishima today! 'Learn about my generation' and 'have a normal conversation with a stranger my age'! Awe, yeah! I think I've gained a ton of EXP this adventure."

"You're welcome." Mishima mumbled.

"And it's all because you brought me here, Ren. Thanks!"

Hermit: Rank 5

"So um... Futaba; It's alright if I called you that, right? I'm a little embarrassed..." He chuckled nervously. "Anyway, what are you doing after this?"

"Going home." She answered simply.

"Oh... okay." He frowned.

"Let's go, Ren!" Futaba smiled as she hugged Ren's arm, giving her boyfriend a big kiss on the cheek

"Sorry, Mishima." Ren apologised.

"Yeah, no problem." He frowned as he looked at his coffee.

"We'll talk at school. Okay?" He asked.

"Right." He nodded, amazed at Ren for having such a girlfriend

"WOOP!" Futaba cheered as she jumped up to her feet, still holding Ren's arm and dragging him up with her. Her jacket flirting around her, and showing off her backside hugged by her tight short shorts "Thanks, Nishima!" Futaba waved innocently as the two left.

"It's... ah, never mind." He waved back.


*Time Skip*

Ren was back at LeBlanc, looking at his phone with Ohya's picture on it... and knew he had to call her. 'Alright, time to do this.' He thought to himself. He texted Ohya to meet up, hoping that she would answer. He needed to sort this all out, after all.

"Hi, Ren. What's up?" Ohya asked as she sounded.. .a little sad.

"Ohya? You okay."

"I'm sorry, I've hit a snag with Kayo's case. I'm not sure how to handle it... can we talk?" She responded, sounding heavy. "I'm at the bar in Shinjuku."

"Yeah, of course. I'll be right there." He answered.

Ending the call, Ren frowned as he looked down at his phone seriously. He had to hurry up!


*Time Skip*

Ren had run all the way to Shinjuku's bar after taking the train, he was worried about Ohya and what would happen. There he saw Lala comforting Ohya who was on another glass of water and had her head in her hands. "Water? This must be serious." he commented, approaching her

"Hey, your friend's here." Lala reassured Ohya.

"Oh, hi Ren." She turned to him, looking heavy eyed.

"What's wrong?" He asked as Lala got him a drink of water.

"It's no use." She admitted. "All my connections who knew where Kayo was are gone, thanks to my chief and publisher... Well, say something." She asked

"Well... I have a pet cat." Ren answered.

"Huh? You're a cat person? That's a bummer. I like dogs myself." She admitted, her mind coming away from her doubt as she sighed and leaned in her chair. "Pulling all these all-nighters is really wearing me down." She admitted, rubbing her eyes and showed the bags under them.

"At this rate, she'll work herself to death." Lala explained. "You've been meeting your quota, right?"

"Of course! They'll fire me if I show signs of weakness." Ohya explained. "The chief really wants me to mess up... but I'm not going to give him the satisfaction."

"He's a tyrant." Lala frowned, knowing that sort of boss drives people to early graves.

"Tell me about it. It's a race whether I can find Kayo before he crushes me." Ohya explained.

"That's no good." Lala shook their head. "Shouldn't you do something about the chief before you chase Kayo's case?"

"No, nothing I can do. He's rotten to the core." Ohya slumped onto the bar and sulked. Ren knew what he had to do, seeing how Ohya was and how sad she had become... it was hard to see her like this. "Despite how he acts... the higher-ups like him. I've got no-one to turn to. It's over."

"Yeah, he didn't seem to be the kind to change his mind. But at this rate, you won't be able to continue your investigation." Lala added.

"What's the chief's name?" Rena asked as he looked at Ohya.

"Why? You gonna try and find his weakness?" She asked. "His name's 'Shinpei Honjo'. I heard that he's a good husband and used to cover the economic foreign policy. I hope it's me overthinking things but... he's seen your face. Don't do anything heroic."

"She's looking out for you, kid. For your own good." Lala added.

"I wonder where Kayo is. I'm sorry, but I don't feel like getting any info from you today." Ohya answered, taking a big gulp of her water. "Thanks for coming down."

"Any time, Ohya. I care about you." Ren smiled

"I... I care about you, too." She answered, having a small smile to her face, since this was one of the good things in her life right now.

"Could... We talk in private?" Ren smiled

"There's a room in the back." Lala informed the pair, giving the two privacy as she went off to wash glasses.

"Come on." He urged

"A-Alright." Ohya answered, getting to her feet as she went with Ren. Lala looked down at the glasses and let the two get some privacy, turning the radio up while their bar was still empty. They closed the door behind them as Ichiko looked at her informant and was a little confused. "What's going on?" She asked, clear-headed but not thinking clearly.

"I wanted to tell you something. Only for us to hear." Ren answered, cupping her cheek. "Do you remember when I said I've got... other girlfriends?"

"I think so? I am pretty sure I was a bit tipsy and was imagining it." She commented

"Well, it's true." Ren admitted. "I do have other girlfriends."

"Oh... is that the picture was for?" She asked in shocked realisation, blushing a bit

"Yeah, that's right." He nodded. "We talked about it and..."

"A-Are you asking me to join?" She asked

"If you want to?"

"Oh. Oh wow, that's... a lot to take in." She admitted.

"Sorry." He laughed "I know it is a lot."

"I... I have to ask. How many?" She asked as she sat down.

"Six." Ren explained calmly, and flinching a bit. After all, that wasn't involving Lavenza

"O-Oh my god." She whispered. "So... are you... experienced?"

"Experian... oh, right!" Ren nodded and smiled "Yeah. I've got some descent experiance."

"Wow, eighteen and already a man of the world?" She joked as she poked his shoulder playfully.

"I guess?" he chuckled

"Well... I hope I'm not too old for you." She admitted jokingly.

"I'm dating two women around your age. You're fine to me." He joked

"Oh, is that right?" She blinked, before taking initiative and gave him a hug. Ren blinked a little as he was being hugged, though it wasn't unwelcome. "I guess... I can get in on this." She whispered into his ear.

"Good. Because they want to meet you." He smiled

"Oh, that sound's nice." She answered. "But for now..." She grinned, licking her lips before kissing him deeply

Ren blinked quickly before he kissed back, holding her close as they embraced. 'Thank god, there's a sofa here.' He thought to himself as he hooked his thumbs under her shirt. Her overly large shirt was easy enough to slip his hands underneath. As he lifted it, he saw her black bra, her C-Cup chest and stomach, seeing that she was still looking after herself despite her drinking. "Beautiful." he praised. Even if she wasn't as physically fit as the other girls he was with, she was still healthy

"Oh, stop." She smirked. "... In fact, don't stop. Keep going." As she removed his shirt.

"Hehehe." Ren laughed, kissing her again. The two began to strip the other off, even with Ichiko knocking off Ren's glasses on accident as they made out and her pinning him down. "Wow." he blinked, feeling her crawl atop him

"Ever have a woman take control?" She teased, stroking his chest to entice him.

"Yeah." He nodded honestly "A few times. One is a bit dommy, honestly."

Ichiko blinked a little before she pursed her lips. "Alright. I can work with this." She muttered to herself as she began to kiss his chest, leaving red lipstick marks in her place

"Hmm~, very nice." He muttered gently, lying back as he grabbed her ass.

"Hands off buster, I'm in charge." She chuckled and slapped his hand playfully before she pulled back, almost crawling down his frame. She grabbed at his pants, and Joker helpfully raised his hips from the bed to help her take them off, quickly revealing his mostly flaccid penis. The stimulation had already begun working on it, she noticed, and he was starting to stir. That said... "Woah, even flaccid..." she muttered, thinking about how he was notably bigger than her previous boyfriend. She gulped, he wasn't even hard yet!

"Thanks, I guess?" He chuckled nervously

"Well, here goes." she muttered, grabbing at his manhood, definite and undeniable proof of maturity. Something that made her feel better about it all

"O-Oh! that... feels nice!" Ren said softly "Your hands... Really soft!"

"Oh?" she asked, grinning "Good to know I'm up to your standards." Asmiled, and made him spread his legs a little more so she could get into a better position. Now dangling between his thighs, his cock looked even bigger. Still, she approached it with her face, and kissed the skin covered tip, stroking the shaft with her fingers.

Ren moaned, not caring to stop his voice from coming out. "Ohya... More..."

She continued, and slowly, little by little, his cock began to awaken, and she found her lips drawn into a smile as it grew to its true size, goodly and impressive. She kept stroking him, and looked up at him from between his legs. "Does that feel good, baby? Like my soft hand rubbing your big throbbing dick?"

"Y-Yes!" Ren said, panting.

"Then... how about this..!" Ohya taunted, as she engulfed the head of his cock with her mouth, opening her lips wide and then sealing them around the back of his prick head, beginning to lick at the tip of his cock, the heat of it almost feeling like it was burning her, but in a gentle way. Her red lips wrapping around his pulsing head as she let out soft moaned

"Ah~!" Ren moaned, panting, his voice coming out almost uncommonly deep as he let her have her way with his body.

Ohya wrapped okwnod her hands around the base of his cock as she pulled back. Panting, she moved it around with her hand while passing through every inch of its length with her deft tongue. "Mmhm..." She had successfully spread spit all over her lovers shaft. Taking her time, she was losing herself in the act of slurping all over his cock. Its unique flavor made her forget about the current situation. About where they were. She focused only on its taste

"Oh god Ohya!" Ren grunted. Her tongue, her mouth. They where heavenly! Her tongue seemed to be the most skilled of any he'd felt so far! Without thinking he grabbed her head and pushed her down, instinctively trying to get more down her mouth and feel more of her

Her eyes opened wide in shock as the large dick was far too burly for her unprepared mouth to handle. Ren managed to push one-third into her before her gag reflex triggered and blocked its passage. "Nghrlhgh!" She gripped his legs and almost pushed him away, but considering HE was lying down she almost threw herself backwards

"Gotcha." Ren said, quickly grasping her wrist before she fell to far back. He grinned softly at her, and laughed as he held her regain her balance "Sorry about that. Couldn't help it."

"It's fine. Means I was doing a good job." She smirked, rubbing her jaw as she let out some small pants "Now... Get on your back. I'm not done yet."

"Yes ma'am." He nodded, falling back again

With some tears still in her eyes, your gag reflex does that to you, she looked into her new boyfriends caring face. Ohya smirked, ready to make him submit. to showcase her determination, she changed her grip. Ichiko wrapped her hands around his thighs, feeling her new lovers powerful muscles, and pulled herself toward her gag reflex again.

She used her grip, her pink nails contrasting his skin, and pulled herself forward with all her might. Her mouth spread wide, her tongue hanging out of her mouth, she shoved her face forwards. Burrying his manly meat in her mouth, her red lips sinking lower and lower "Glurgh!" She choked, pushing and pulling her entire torso back and forth. "Ghlurhg! Glurhk! Glrugh!" With desperate, sloppy technique, Ohya did her best to facefuck his cock.

The response was almost immediate as Phantom Theif known as Joker moaned loudly, his head falling back and his eyes shutting tight. Tae had an amazing mouth, but she had pure skill and teasing. Ohya had a wild abandon, a desperation. It somehow made it feel even better!

'I can do it! I'll suck this big, manly, piece of meat and make it cum!' Ohya thought desperately, almost trying to prove to herself that it was possible. After a few seconds of hardcore struggle between choking and deepthroating, his dick invaded further into her throat. Ohya's airways were blocked off. She could not take in oxygen when more than one-third of his length was inside her. And yet, she took more. Two thirds, three thirds. The bulge distending her neck was fairly obvious, but she didn't care. "Ghrlugh! Glukh!" Ichiko slowed the speed of her head-bobbing, finding it hard to stretch her own throat further. As she noticed a delicious flavour filling her mouth 'My saliva is getting mixed with his precum...! And my tongue is rubbing all over it...!' She licked his cock, even when it was engulfed in her hungry mouth. She was expecting it, earlier than this honestly. And yet... It tasted so good~ 'Why does it taste so... So… Delicious?!' She thought, going right back to sucking. Ignoring her discomfort, her cheeks hollowing out as she slurped on his member. Desperate for his cum, more than any other man's before

Ren gripped the seat beneath him, feeling his dick throbbing harder and harder, he was close to finishing up in her mouth. "Ohya... I'm... I'm..." He stuttered out only for her to pull back

"Ah~, give it to me. Cum for me." She ordered as she undid her bra, encasing his member quickly

"Oh, god!" He gasped, feeling the warmth of her breasts wrapping around his dick as he soon came coating her tits with his cum. He couldn't control himself, groaning deeply as he exploded

Ohya gasped as she was covered in cum, her breasts stained by his cum as some of it actually got to her lips. "Oh god! How backed up were you?" She asked.

"A-A few weeks at most." He admitted.

'Jackpot.' She thought as she licked her lips. "Well, I'm taking advantage of this." As she began to suck his tip once again as his dick slid up and down her tits again. "Six women and so backed up? Looks like I need to have a talk with your girls." Ohya teased, cleaning her breasts before pulling out a condom packet

'Wow.' He thought to himself as he looked at her, while she applied the condom over his dick... with her mouth. "Oh god!"

Ohya gave a deep moan around his member, pulling back with a smirk "Ah~, first try." She joked as she hovered over his dick. "Get ready, Ren." She smirked.

"I'm already ready." He panted

She pushed down onto his dick, feeling him stretch her hole as she let out a long drawn-out moan. After all, she was going to savour it, it had been so long since she had fucked because of her job. "Oh~, you... Fill me up nicely~" she moaned

"Thanks, you're nice and tight too!" Ren gasped, gripping her hips as he guided her down.

"Mmm~? Thought I'd be loose or something?" She teased, rolling her hips in small circles

"Not. At all." He panted, enjoying the rotations. "Ah~!" He looked up at her glistening tits and smiled.

"D-Do you like them? Huh? My big, wet tits?" She panted as she continued to tease him by pinching and rubbing her breasts.

"They're hardly wet." He joked as he was getting more into this 'foreplay' and rutted Ohya's pussy even more. The two continued to make love in the back room of Lala's bar, the music covering their sounds as Ohya began to get flushed cheeks as she was close to climaxing.

"K-Keep going! I'm close!" She ordered, her breasts bouncing with his hips.

"Ohya... I'm nearly there." He grunted

"In me, in me, Ren! Give me your AH~!" She moaned as she rode his dick, the two of them climaxing together as Ren filled the condom as she climaxed over his cock.

Both Ren and Ichiko exclaimed as they both finished, falling into each other's arms as they were exhausted. They held each other close, letting out slight moans as their bodies quivered I'm the aftermath

"F-Fuck. That... that was... amazing." She whispered. 'Mindblowing sex from heavy work.' She thought to herself.

"Yeah." He nodded back with a grin

"Do you do this... with them?" She asked as she imagined his sex life.

"Not all the time." he laughed

"I'd be worried if you did." She chuckled with him as she nuzzled against him "Hmm. I think this will work out."

"Oh, that's good." He sighed as he felt her face nuzzle close.

"... Hey, Ren." She whispered.

"Yeah?" He asked.

"My legs feel like jelly." She embarrassedly admitted.

"Same." he laughed nervosuly

...

"Lala-Chan is gonna kill us." she mumbled

"Probably." he nodded

...

"I love you, Ichiko." he whispered

"I. I. I... I love you..." Ichiko stammered as she heard that and almost fainted.

Ren held her close, patting her hair softly 'Sleep well, Ichiko.' He thought. 'We'll deal with your Chief.'

Devil: Rank 8


*time skip, the next day*

September 1st...

September 1st...

School

School was back on.

...

"I am so tired..." Ren mumbled

"Well maybe if you weren't up all night." Morgana responded from inside the bag.

"There was important stuff to be done." He answered.

"Bangining your new girl?" he snickered

Ren just grumbled as his response. It was just a pain in the neck to admit this to his cat.

"Ah... mornin' dude." Ryuji yawned, his arm stretched upwards as he had dark circles under his eyes.

"... Late night cram homework?" Ren asked.

"You have to ask?" He responded. "I dunno how people do it."

"They do their homework BEFORE the last minute?" Ren joked

"But who uses algebra in real life? Huh? Answer me that!" Ryuji deadpanned.

"I dunno." Ren shrugged

"I just hope Ms Kawakami doesn't bust my balls over this." Ryuji hoped.

"Who knows." Morgana yawned

"Hey, Cat. Sleeping well?" Ryuji asked, poking Ren's bag.

"Yes, thanks." Morgana responded.

"Hey, guys!" Ann and Shiho waved.

"Looks like our days are numbering." Ryuji joked. "I'll see you in class."

"Why?" Ren blinked, clulessly

"Because they probably want a word with you." Ryuji answered. "... And Makoto's gonna ride my ass about homework again."

"Probably." Ren nodded. "See you inside."

"Guy talk?" Ann asked as they got close.

"Yeah, basically." He nodded.

"So, how's everything regarding... Our newest member?" Shiho whispered.

"Good, all good. Ichiko wants to meet you all soon." He answered.

"Oh, that's nice. So." The two responded as they linked arms with him.

"Any gossip to tell us?" Ann smirked confidently.

"I... ER... Like what?" He blinked, gulping

"Well, if she's up to our standards and is willing to meet outside of just with you." Shiho winked.

"Yeah, she's willing. But... Your standards?" He asked questioningly

"Is she fun? Is she open to dating? That sort of thing." Ann listed off.

"Oh, yeah. I think so." He nodded. "I think she might also be okay with... the others."

The girls looked around them and nodded, knowing they couldn't be too open with name-dropping. "Sure, no problem. We'll meet at LeBlanc later."

"Yeah. But we definitely need a meeting after school today. It is time, I think." Ren nodded, making a card flipping motion

"Understood." Ann nodded.

"We'll call Makoto when we get the chance alone." Shiho agreed.

"Right." He nodded "I'll text Yusuke and Tae. Meaning Futaba will find out."

"Do we need to talk about that?" Ann asked in concern.

"Probably." Ren admitted

"Well, we can only do so much if she's spying on us." Shiho responded.

"Oh? You planning someth?" Ann teased

"I don't know, maybe." She answered. "We could do something."

"Well, we better head into class." Ren smiled, kissing both girls cheeks

"Yeah, I'll see you two later." Shiho waved as she headed to class.

"Let's go, Ren." Ann added as they walked inside.

"Right." He nodded


*Time Skip*

It felt like the day was taking forever, all the 'Return To School Blues' were heavy in the air. Ren groaned as the group met at Tae's hospital, all but Kawakami present

"Alright, so this Calling Card." Tae asked as they were brainstorming ideas with everyone.

"Yeah, it is time to send it." Ren nodded

"Good, I can't stop thinking about this deadline." Tae admitted, worried for herself and her new teammates.

"You want to write it?" Ryuji asked. "Knowing me, I'll probably mess it up."

"Ryuji, yours weren't THAT bad." Ann assured

"Thanks." He smiled at that praise.

"Thank you for the offer, Ryuji." Tae answered, picking up a pen.

"I shall design it." Yusuke added. "A personal touch from all of us."

"Now... How do we deliver it?" Ren asked

"I can take it." Morgana offered. "I can sneak into-"

"Smart thinking, but a cat in a hospital would be very risky." Makoto responded, but appreciated it.

"... I've got my bad leg. I could maybe say I'm going in for a check-up." Ryuji responded.

"And what? Hand it right to him?" Tae asked while rolling her eyes

"Err... no." Ryuji frowned.

"I could hack into the hospital's computers and send it to their files." Futaba answered. "Plaster it all through their home screens."

"That could work... as long as it won't harm the patients." Tae answered.

"Don't worry, it'll just appear as a one-time email and the home screen." Futaba answered.

"Well, that seems like we know what we're doing." Ann answered.

"Now to write the thing... I wonder how he's going to react?" Makoto commented.

"Knowing him? Probably poorly." Tae responded.

"So, does this mean we've got our plan?" Yusuke asked. "And the calling card?"

"Yep." Ren nodded with a smile "It's Showtime!"


*The next day, at the hospital*

Dr Oyamada was walking to his office, knowing his deadline for Tae was approaching. That would teach her and that pomped-up teenager to mess with him. He was in the right, he was a respected member of this hospital. HE-

"Dr Oyamada, th-there's something on the computers." A nurse spoke.

"Whatever it is nurse, the IT department can fix it." He answered.

"No, Sir. *You* have to see this. It's for you." She responded nervously.

"What the hell are you talking about, woman?" He snapped and followed. On the computer screen was the front page... and a calling card directed to Dr Oyamada. "Is this some sort of prank? Get rid of it!" Mr Oyamada ordered.

"We've tried and trying, Sir." She answered nervously.

Oyamada looked on at the screen... and saw that it was a calling card!

Dr Oyamada,
The False Doctor of Greed. You have stolen patients from those more compassionate than yourself. You pride yourself of being special, but when it comes down to it, you are not that.
We will steal your heart and expose your crimes.
You will pay for making others suffer for your misdeeds.
The Phantom Thieves of Heart.

His eye twitched as he looked at the screen, his hand clenching "Who? Who did this? How many have seen this?" He glared angrily as he realised that he was being called out.

"A-Almost everyone on staff." The nurse answered. "And... we know who's done this." She pointed to the name, The Phantom Thieves.

Dr Oyamada froze as he saw this... getting something stirring deep within his heart as he felt threatened by this. "It's. Fine. It means. Nothing."

But deep within Dr Oyamada's heart, his Palace Self was daring them to try and attack him. 'Stupid-brained Phantom Thieves! You dare attack me? In my own HOSPITAL? I will bury you further than any morgue! You will rue the day you didn't do as I said!'

Turning away, both versions of the doctor stormed away


*With the Phantom Thieves*

The team where together, September 2nd, entering the Palace one last time.

The Calling Card being sent hours ago, the security cranked up to the max.

"This is what it's like when they're at full alert?" Seacole asked in concern.

"Yep. Never gets any easier." Oracle answered.

"But we've got our in. We can get to the top without much issue." Panther added.

"You got the smoke bombs and lockpicks?" Skull asked.

"Need you ask?" Joker smirked.

"And I'm all set for support!" Oracle cheered

"We know what we're doing? Get in, beat the Doc and head out." Queen informed.

"Trust me, I don't want to stay longer than needed." Seacole answered.

"Besides, it's a school night. I doubt Fleur would be happy with us if we turn up exhausted." Panther joked

"Yeah, that too." Skull admitted and held his head nervously.

"Homework assignments?" Fox asked.

"Big time." He nodded.

"Let's get going." Joker ordered, knowing that this would be a tough fight,


*time skip*

It didn't take them long to slip through the traps, to get through the floors. And they where now rushing towards the treasure room "Not far now, just another corner!" Oracle spoke as she scanned the floor.

"Get ready everyone!" Joker called, almost kicking the door open

BAM!

The doors were kicked open and inside the palace's last room, and it was a large modified operating room.

"Anyone getting a 'horror house' vibe from this guy?" Oracle asked.

"Oh good, I thought it was just me." Dove admitted.

"And just over a month early." Skull joked

"Stay on your guard." Fox asked. "This place gives me the chills."

"Heh-heh." Oracle chuckled as she heard that possibly unintentional pun.

"So... you enter my domain. My Palace. My RIGHT as a Doctor?" A deep voice spoke darkly within the room. The group looked around as the voice echoed around them, the team staying close

"You're no doctor. You're a fraud." Seacole frowned.

"Says the Plague!" The voice growled as it emerged from the shadows.

Stomping out, was a chimeric creature. A flat-topped skull of a head, his left arm was a large red and pale yellow crab claw with sharp knives as the points on the pincers; its right arm was replaced with long dark sandy brown tentacles with pale ghostly white suckers, each with hooks sticking out with bulbous ends that looked like fleshy diamonds. Heavy thick slabs of metal on his boots with metallic leg braces that had spiked screws holding them in place. On his back were a pair of matted grey wings speckled with black feathers protruding like stretched bone. And lastly was its mouth a mosquito's proboscis under his sunken dark eyes.

And over its body was a pristine white doctor's coat, obviously reflecting his appearance. Despite how he was, a true monster, he always held himself up as a 'doctor'... or a person wearing a doctor's uniform.

"I-I think I'm gonna be sick!" Queen groaned as she saw the monstrous creature appear before them.

"Do not worry. The Real doctor is in!" Dr Oyamada's Shadow roared out.

"Oyamada, what happened to you?" Seacole asked in shock, seeing this mutated chimaera of the doctor she worked with and who was ruining her.

"This is his inner self. It's what he sees himself as." Joker reminded.

"He sees himself as a Dr Frankenstein monster?" Panther asked.

LASH!

"MOVE!" Skull called out, pushing the group to separate them.

"Let's lay down the pain, guys!" Oracle called as she entered her UFO

"You got it!" Panther answered as they rushed forward and began the attack.

Dr Oyamada rose his tentacles and blocked the attacks, the rubbery texture was like a doctor's surgical gloves as they repelled the attacks.

Seacole acted first as she threw her hand, launching her needles at the mad doctor

STAB!
STAB!
STAB!

"Grr! Is that supposed to hurt?" He glared at her.

"What?" She gasped.

"Incoming!" Queen called out, riding Johanna to strike at Oyamada. She quickly grabbed Seacole's hand, helping her flipping onto the bike "Gotcha!"

"Little BITCHES!" Oyamada roared angrily.

"ZIONGA!" Skull called out, slamming his club down onto the crab claw to try and electrocute it...but nothing happened. "The hell!?"

"Are we... are we doing ANYTHING to him?!" Mona yelled in worry

"Another one of these?! Again?!" Fox huffed weakly, jumping side

"Can't you see? Your methods are uselesss!" Oyamada proclaimed, jabbing his proboscis at Dove.

LASH!

"Get away from her!" Panther called out, attempting to whip the mosquito section away. Her whip slashing around like a vengeful specter

Oyamada frowned as he was being lashed at, not that it hurt him, it was just annoying. He extended his wings and flew up for a few moments before he came crashing down to cause the room to shake.

"Grrr!" Ren growled... Before he blinked, gasping in worry as he saw the others

"GAAAH!" Skull yelled as he was surrounded by a red aura, anger flowing through his body clearly

"Careful, Skull is enraged!" Oracle stated

"I feel so... Slow." Seacole grunted as she got off Johanna, her movements clearly sluggish

"Panther!" Dove called as she quickly rushed by, catching the latex clad theif as she almost fell to her knees

"So... Weak..." Panther groaned

"Panther's lost almost all of her SP! How?!" Oracle gasped

"Is he debuffing us?" Dove asked in shock.

"GRARGH!" Skull roared as he attacked Joker.

"Joker, look out!" Mona called out, trying to summon Mercurius to block Skull's attack.

"How dare you do this to my friends?" Fox glared as he used magic. "BUFUDYNE!" His ice attack came rushing out, the doctor flinching but not hurt "That's not...urgh..." Fox groaned as he fell to the floor and felt sluggish, almost passing out.

"Fox!" Joker called out.

"Pathetic. I can only just think that you got this far with lacklustre skill!" Oyamada sneered.

"'Lacklustre'?" Mona asked angrily.

"Panther? Panther! Come on, get up!" Dove begged as she tried to help her friend up.

"Can't. Too. Tired." Panther whispered.

SLAM!

"GAH!" Joker and Mona grunted as they were attacked.

"Joker, look out!" Oracle called out.

"H-hnn!" Joker grunted as he was protected by Mona... who was now brainwashed and swaying in the room as he was under Oyamada's control. "Mona!"

"Ha, ha, ha! Do you see? You cannot stand in my way!" Oyamada jeered.

Panther was on the ground, exhausted.

Seacole was slowed down and feeling defeated, depression rushing through her

Queen was brought to her feet as she was slowed.

"I am in control here! A medical genius!"

Fox was in a stupor as he was poisoned.

Skull was enraged and smashing his bat around the area.

And Mona was brainwashed

"It is over! You lost!" Oyamada reached down and grabbed Oracle and Dove.

"NO! Not again!" Oracle called out.

"Let us go!" Dove grunted.

"I AM GOD!" Oyamada proclaimed. "Cat! Sever the last of these fool's chances!"

"oOh, OkAy!" Mona responded, his mind spinning around as he was slurred, looking at Joker... before turning to Oyamada. "mEdIaRaMa!"

"Huh?" Both Joker and Oyamada blinked in confusion as green healing light formed over the Boss.

twinkle

"GYAAAAAARGH!" Oyamada screamed out in absolute agony and dropped Dove and Oracle to the floor. "IT HURTS! GOD, IT HURTS! WHAT DID YOU DO?!"

''It... hurts'?' Joker thought.

"What just happened?" Dove asked.

"Of course. It. Was so obvious." Oracle realised.

"Oyamada..." Seacole groaned as she got back up. "He hates being helped. Being treated. What better way to fight a doctor?"

"Than to heal him! Old School RPG 'Heal the Undead'!" Oracle pointed out.

"Huh?" Dove asked in confusion.

"I'll handle the healing. Dove, help the others with items!" Joker ordered.

"With what? You have the items!" Dove answered.

"Does anyone else have healing?" Oracle asked as Dr Oyamada was grunting in pain.

"Panther and Seacole!" Both Dove and Joker answered together.

"Damn you! You will not get me again!" Dr Oyamada roared out.

"Take this! DIARAMA!" Dove called out, using her own skills to 'heal' their enemy.

shine

"GRAAAAARGH!"

"Come on, Mona, wake up buddy!" Joker spoke, slapping him with the harisen fan to snap him out of the brainwashing.

The cat fell to his face, groaning "Owie..."

"Ugh... Better." Seacole mumbled as her alignment began to slowly fade

"Rargh!" Skull roared as he was swaying about.

"Skull, knock it off!" Dove called out.

"What happened?" Mona asked.

"Oyamada uses ailments. Use healing to hurt him." Joker quickly answered.

"Right. Okay." Mona groaned, still holding his head. "Hang on, guys!"

Skull rushed at Joker, aiming to strike, only for Joker to punch Skull in the gut "Hurgh! Hnn! Ow... what the hell, man?" Skull groaned, falling into Joker's arms.

"I gotcha," He reassured.

"DIARAMA!/ DIARAHAN!" Dove and Mona called out, shooting their highest levels of healing spells at Oyamada.

SHINE!

"GRARGH! STOP! IT! STOP! IT! STOPIT! STOPIT! STOPIT!" He roared in pain.

"Take. Your. Medicine." Seacole growled sternly as she stood up, her eyes fixated on him

"We need to help Fox, Queen and Panther." Joker explained, and after a moments hesitation... gave Skull two items "Take these to the girls, I've got Fox." he said, stratergising

"Okay. You got it, buddy." Skull answered, taking the items and he almost double took at the items he was given. "Seriously?"

"What?" Joker asked

"What's with these items? The Metaverse is crazy." Skull commented as he rushed to Queen and Panther.

Joker rolled his eyes and rushed to Fox.

"Hate! I HATE you!" Oyamada roared.

"Oh, stop whining." Skull rolled his eyes as he got to Queen and Panther, giving them the items to heal their ailments and their SP.

"Wh-what is-?" Panther asked as she smelt the item. "Coffee?" As she drank it, Panther's eyes widened and she felt full of vitality as her SP skyrocketed back. "WHOA! That hit the spot!"

"Queen, come on. Time to wake up!" Skull gave a drink labelled 'Creature' to her.

Queen's eyes popped right open as she got back to her feet. "Was that just straight sugar and caffeine?" She asked.

"Good to see you back up." He smirked.

"How? My ailments are superior!" Oyamada roared.

"'Superiror' this Dr Douchebag!" Panther called out.

"Let's go... HECATE!"

Coming from blue flames, Hecate rose as she was ready to incinerate this false Doctor.

Oyamada looked up at the Greek Goddess Persona and was worried, lashing out at her with his tentacle arms while he flew into the air. "You bitch! Learn your-!"

"DIARAMA!" She called out, using her healing ability to strike through the tentacles, causing them to explode and splatter green blood to the ground.

"GAAAAAHHHHH!" he howled in agony, falling to his knees

"What did I miss?" Fox groaned as he was healed up by Joker, given an item to rid himself of the ailments.

"Fake doctor can't stand healing." Joker answered quickly.

"How pitifully ironic." Fox commented.

"So we need to act as distractions so Mona and the girls can deal with him." Joker nodded

"Alright, I can do that." He responded, getting up as he, Joker and Skull were the distractions. "Over here! You poor excuse for a medical professional!"

"... Quippy, Fox." Both Skull and Oracle deadpanned.

"Hehe." Joker laughed

"Let's go, Johanna." Queen spoke as she mounted her Persona again, revving her motorbike as she was going to help the others. She had a few healing spells in her repiour, after all "DIARAHAN!" She called out, causing a doughnut around the area, surrounding Oyamada with green sparkles of healing light.

Oyamada was looking worse and worse, each healing spell was causing him to turn into a screaming mess. No matter how much he was healing himself, trying to attack the group...this onslaught of high and mid-level healing was whittling him down. He thought that if only a few more would cause him to die. "GET AWAY FROM ME!" He demanded.

"Hehe. We are witteling him down." Oracle cheered

"I will drain you of all your health!" Oyamada roared, his mosquito face launching forwards and attacking Skull and Queen.

"Let's go!" Skull roared as he jumped ahead, crossing his arms into a block and summoning his Persona to send a shockwave through the air

"CAPTAIN KIDD! ZIONGA!" He called out.

"I've got your back, Skull!" Queen called out as she span her bike around dramatically, Johanna's blue flames preparing to help catch Skull after the strike

"Faust. Let's go." Seacole spoke as she launched her needles at the group and healed them of any status ailments.

"Ah~!" the Person a called out as it emerged from its host, almost flexing its body "This is a true doctor, Quack!" Faust jeered towards Oyamada.

Oyamada swayed in the air as he was being attacked over and over, his wings were turning rotten, his tentacles flailing sporadically as he couldn't control them and his crab claw was gaining drilled holes.

CRASH!

"A-Argh. It. Hurts. Stop it." Oyamada grunted as he tried to get up, but couldn't.

"Did... Did we win?" Skull panted, stumbling off Johanna

"If you did, you've earned MVP this time Skull." Oracle joked

"All together. Seacole. Lead it off!" Joker called out.

Seacole took two steps forwards as she built up speed and the Phantom Thieves went All Out and beat the crap out of Oyamada.

The Doctor Is In!

Oyamada screamed as he fell to the ground, defeated and returned back to his normal state...his human face and body wearing a pristine doctor's uniform, looking sorry for himself as he was beaten. "I... I just. Wanted. To be special. I was a genius. A genius in my generation. N-No one saw that anymore."

"Hmm?" Seacole asked, turning to face him as the others followed suit. With victory assured they all relaxed slightly, but where caught by surprise from the doctors sudden confession.

"I was... praised. I wanted a legacy. To be remembered. Being a doctor... why? Why was I overlooked? When you came along, everyone looked at you and not me." Oyamada wept.

PUNCH!
PUNCH!

He slammed his fist against the ground, again and again

"You were... a big fish in a small pond." Seacole frowned as she approached him. "I pity you, Oyamada."

"You... do?" he asked in horror and... hope

"But you also let your talents fade. You coasted on your past deeds. Your childhood fame. A brilliant doctor in his youth. And that was it. You where brilliant for your age. And you didn't notice that time ticked by." Seacole explained "That those your own age caught up to you, exceeded you. You became average. And instead of caring for the patients, you obsessed with the idea of being special."

Oyamada looked at the ground as he was pitied, slowly nodding as he was shown his sins...and agreed with her statement. "I'm. I'm sorry. I can only hope that I can pay for my crimes." He apologised as he began to vanish as the Phantom Thieves took his treasure...and the Palace itself began to shake.

However as he began to fade... He looked at Tae "I have one last confession... She's alive." He mumbled before fading away into light

"She... what?" She whispered in horror/shock

"Mona! Get the treasure!" Joker called

"On it!" Mona leapt up and grabbed the glowing ball of desire. "I've got it!"

"Caught you, cat!" Skull caught him in his arms.

"Seacole, we've gotta go!" Panther called out but the older member of the team was looking on forwards, looking ahead of her almost... Lost and confused

"Seacole!" Joker called out, grabbing her hand so she doesn't get trapped in this mind. Tae blinked and shook her head, following him. Almost tripping a bit as she stumbled, letting Joker lead her away

The group had to race out, Mona couldn't turn into a van again and Johanna wouldn't carry everyone. This part always sucked!

"Keep moving! Keep moving! Keep moving!" Fox repeated as they ran as fast as possible.

KABOOM!

The Phantom Thieves erupted out of the Palace, landing in LeBlanc exhausted and free.

"Is-? Is everyone okay?" Futaba asked as she landed on the bed.

"Just fine, thanks." Ann and Shiho responded.

"These never get easier, do they?" Yusuke asked.

"Nope... Morgana, you okay?" Ryuji asked.

"Uh-huh. Goh ha, bleh, treasure." Morgana answered, his mouth holding the treasure before spitting it out.

Clattering to the floor was a framed item. A diploma with Mr Oyamada's picture. It was his medical certificate. Or maybe one that he had changed for vanity reasons.

"What can we do with that?!" Ryuji groaned as he fell over

No one knew what to respond with. All they knew was... This battle was over
