Joker Pov
Right now I was asleep currently standing in a alleyway facing a pale skined purple hair women who says her name is Strea
They smiled at me innocently and she then said
" What's the matter you look angry"
" Strea right who are you and why are you following me"
And she just had a close eye smile and chuckled
" Well that's because I found you really fascinating and I want to learn more about the mysterious Joker "
I then thought
' People call me terrifying or loner then fascinating '
" Also how long have you been following me exactly"
She then place a hand on her chin and then said
" Let's see I would say since you arrived at floor 76 "
Joker: ! ' She's been watching it all this time since I arrived '
" Strea who exactly are you"
And she smiled at me mischievously
" Do you want to learn more about me quite bold of you "
As thank God I was wearing a mask to hide the blush that was on my face underneath it
"D - Don't get the wrong idea "
And she just chuckled at me and said
" Man you are so cute"
She then said walking towards me and grab my head
And pulled me into a bear hug planting my face into her boobs which I can't lie would feel nice it wasn't for her squeezing the life out of me
" Gah can't breathe ! "
I managed to say while she was suffocating me I tried to get out, but man she was too strong so I just decided to deal with it and hug her back and after I'd say 5 - 10 min she let go (thank god 😓)
She looked at me and said
" Well anyway do you want to grab a bite at a cafe "
Which I can't lie how hungry I was so I agreed
So we went to a cafe and we ordered some coffee and while I was doing that I was given a close eye on her but I was hoping to hopefully catch on what she was planning I haven't seen nothing but I was getting nothing well other then seeing how cute she is and she was drinking her coffee with creamer as a kind of got a little bit on her face and she took her hand wiped it off
And after talking for a bit we were right now just sitting at park talking with her when suddenly I got a message from Asuna saying
Joker I'm sorry to bother you but the assault team found the boss room I need you to get down here
And I looked at it and Strea noticed my expression and said
" Oh don't tell me you have to go don't you "
And I nodded and said
" Yeah sorry to ditch and run but the assault team found the dungeon so I have to go join them "
And she nodded and hug me again
"Okay but be careful okay and let's do this again sometime all right"
And I managed to nod.
I am thou, thou art I
Thou has a acquired a new vow
They shall become the wings of rebellion that breaketh thy chains of captivity
With the rebirth of the Empress persona I have finally found the bond I was looking for
Strea Empress Aranca
She let me go and said
" Well see you later "
She said walking off
Timeskip
After heading to the location we're off and after grabbing a recover HP items I made it to the dungeon when I saw the rest of the assault team there and I felt stares, and I breathed out and thought deja vu as I got in line in front of the boss as I get heard Whispers about why is that guy here and I can only assume it was a few that saw the duel between me and Kirito , then I heard walking and saw it was a player in front of me and I said
"Hmm can I help you with something"
"Yes what is a cheater like you doing here"
And I raised an eyebrow
" Cheater explain I don't follow "
" Don't take me for a fool I saw the duel I saw that weapon you used and plus that skill none of those are in these game and if so you haven't told anyone in kept it to yourself which in turn makes you a cheater and in the same racking as a beater! "
At this point I was glaring at them because for one I just got here and two is not like I know how I was able to get them in here in the first place.
And I was going to give them a few kind words, but I was interrupted
" What's going on here "
And I turned and saw Asuna walking towards us
" Asuna "
I said and she nodded at me and then turn to the other two
" Is something wrong "
" Second in Command why is a cheater like this joining us I mean you saw the duel and the skills he was using it was not of this game and if it was this cheater has been keeping it from us ! "
And Asuna narrowed her eyes at them
" Really now well from what I can see he is a really good person who has useful skills to help us that no one else has that could benefit us so I see no reason not to let him join us wouldn't you agree "
Which took them a back and I had to bite down the smirk
" And if you're truly worried about him cheating then how about I keep an eye on him in my group and if he does anything that would harm us in any way "
And she quickly pulled out her Rapier as fast as her title of Lightning Flash told she put against my neck and grabbed the front part of my collar that had a motion that if she pulled me in her rapier would go down on my throat
" I'll personally deal with him myself is that agreeable for you two "
And the two absolutely shocked to the point where is this was different circumstances I would be laughing my head off but I couldn't break the script and I looked at the corner of my eye and saw the other members of the team taken aback at this moment and saw Kirito chuckling sheepishly, Agil absolutely dumbfounded, and Klien absolutely terrified
And the two looked at her while and said
" Alright Second in Command if you say so "
As they walked off and Asuna with her hand still grabbing my collar drag me and the others were
When she breathed out and then said letting go my collars and putting away had a rapier
" Oh my God what did I do I can't believe I did that "
She's a bit embarrassed putting her hands on her face while the others were laughing at her behavior and Kirito said
" Man Asuna I didn't see you as the type for threatening to kill someone like that "
" S-Shut up Kirito I was just I do think of something that would work, but ahhhh "
At this point is laughing my head off it's been awhile since I had a good laugh and this was taking it
And she looked at me and then said
" I'm sorry Joker for threatening you like that and it seems now we'll be stuck together now and you'll be well now I'll be having to keep a close eye on you now because of my big mouth "
As I shook my head and then said
" it's all right you we're doing it to help me since you barely how much about me besides it's only been a day since we know each other so didn't have much options to defend me so you came up with a way for reinsurance that would work so it's all right"
I said placing a hand on shoulder
" And besides I think this is a good way to also warm up trust so I it's a good thing "
As she was taken aback but then smiled
" All right and thank you for taking it so likely I'll make sure to honor the trust you put in me "
I am thou, thou art I
Thou has acquired a new vow
It shall become the wings of rebellion
A breaketh thy Chain Captivity
With the rebirth of the Priestess Persona
I have finally found the bond I was looking for
Asuna Priestess Aranca

Afterwards we were in the middle of the fighting the boss the thing was tougher then we thought it had a lot of AOE and then did a skill that none of us were expecting
It moved its tentacles wildly while squealing a yellow light came off it and then suddenly they found themselves unable to move and then move the tentacle and slammed it into Joker luckily he is able to summon Arsene to block most of the impact with send him into a wall which made his HP go to are yellow red range and other said
"Joker!! "
And they try to go to him but because of them being frozen in place there is nothing they could do and then slammed into some of the assault team members luckily didn't die but were in critical condition as the boss was about to do a huge attack
Kirito thought :
'Well sorry Yui daddy and mommy won't be making it back this time'
As others were closing my eyes but then they already voiced that broke through the silence
" Persona !!!! "

When I was thrown into the wall temporarily lost consciousness when I suddenly familiar voice say
" Don't give up my Trickster do you still have unfinished business to do "
And my eyes snapped open and my eyes wided
" Lanvenza "
He said putting a hand on her cheek she closed with a smile
" It's good to see you my trickster I'm glad I found you, but now isn't the time you need to defeat the threat in front of you "
She said
And I nodded and I felt my power spiralling

" Persona !!!!! "
Everyone opened and saw Joker with wided eyed
" Wait that's a different persona then he used last time does that mean he can use more then one ! "
" Take this !! " Joker said
As his new persona unlash a strong curse attack hitting the boss as it roared
As it threw it tentacle at him
But he around it while pulling out his dagger and used the skill " Fad Edge " slashing around the tenctale which triggered a bleeding effect on it
As it then used a breath attack on Joker surprisingly Agil who had recovering from the paralysis stepped in and with his shield blocked it and he turn to Joker
" Help the others "
And he nodded and somersaulted over to the group and summoned a persona
" Anubis "
And he used a support skill called
" Dekunda "
Which help them recover from the paralysis and everyone regrouped while taking the critical injured out and he turned back to the boss I did send it to do a sweep attack that he then pulled out his gun and fire that it's eyeball making a squealing pain and it couldn't see temporarily and when I did it's all Joker right in front of it as he smirked
" Checkmate ! "
And used all out attack on it as it turned turntable cover which I had only one row of HP left it saw Joker holding his mask with the persona he attacked it with earlier in front of it as its eyes went red as it deliver the final blow with a curse skill
And it exploded in to pixials and Joker breathed hard as he collapsed on his knees
" Is it over "
He said then he felt something slam into him and he looked and saw Asuna hugging him tightly
" You really scared me when you took that big hit I'm glad that you're okay "
And I smiled weakly and I looked as all the others walk towards me and Kirito smirked said
" Better get used to it Asuna's natural hugger especially to people that make her worrie- "
Which she threw a glare to him which made him shut up quick and Agil said
" Anyway let's call it a day I think we all need to recover " so we use the teleport crystal and teleported to town
