Working With Phantoms

Gift from the Underworld

Suga raised her hand at Macabre and Yuki Jyorou, with Bubonia opening with a Magarudyne. Then, Macabre went for Margaret with an Assault Dive, which she avoided. She then tried to return with a Hassou Tobi, but Yuki Jyorou was the only one affected.

"So, if Macabre blocks that..."

Margaret then summoned Abbadon in front of Ryuji right as Macabre went for him.

"Ryuji, can you use buffing spells?"

"Yeah."

"Then, do so!"

Ryuji then hit Margaret with a Tarukaja while Yuki Jyorou utilized a Lydia on Macabre. Suga then did the same for Margaret.

"Ryuji, focus on keep Margaret's attack up! I'll keep us alive. Margaret has one of the best arsenals out there, so rely on her!"

Margaret nodded and swapped to Siegfried, who utilized a Charge. Yuki Jyorou then attempted to hit the persona with a Garudyne, but Bubonia interjected and reflected it at her. Siegfried then gained yet another Tarukaja from Ryuji and attacked Macabre with a Megaton Raid, which sent him back a bit.

"Hmm. It would seem that I slightly underestimated you..."

Macabre then attacked everyone with a large energy wave of purple-yellow energy, which caused Ryuji and Margaret to become poisoned.

"Margaret, what was that?"

"That was Blight. Cu Chulainn, come!"

Margaret then summoned Cu Chulainn, who removed the ailments with a Me Patra. Suga then healed the group up as Ryuji shot at Yuki Jyorou with his shotgun. This knocked her over, allowing for him to Baton Pass to Margaret.

"Ok, so, that ice lady's weak to gun!"

"Noted. Ardha, arise!"

Margaret then summoned Ardha, who hit Macabre with a Diamond Dust. After that, Yuki Jyorou got back up, utilizing a Mediarama on herself and Macabre.

"It seems that Yuki Jyorou has skills very similar to yours, Suga."

"Yep! Bubonia, go!"

Suga then attacked the two shadows with a Magarudyne once more. Macabre then returned with a Mamudoon, which everyone avoided. Margaret then swapped back to Siegfried, who began another Charge.

"It seems that simply copying the other will not work so well..."

Yuki Jyorou laughed and utilized a Concentrate.

"Crap, Margaret, do you have anything that can break a Concentrate?"

"Nope. We'll just have to live."

Suga looked over at Ryuji.

"Can you at least Makarakarn him?"

"Sure. Jack Frost!"

Margaret then summoned Jack Frost, who utilized a Makarakarn on Ryuji. Then, Yuki Jyorou utilized an Ice Age on everyone, and once part of the blast was redirected at her, she simply bounced it at Suga. This ended up with her being the only one affected, as Jack Frost fully absorbed the spell.

"Suga, are you ok?"

Suga then utilized a Diarahan on herself, nodding. Yuki Jyorou then knocked her over with a rather bombastic electric spell and took the extra attack out on the rest of the group with a Megidolaon. Margaret then summoned Ardha, presumably to heal everyone, but was also taken down by an Eigaon from Macabre. The pair then utilized a fusion spell in the form of Gale Blast on everyone, which left Ryuji as the only one still up.
