Terror Infinity Side B
Chapter 24, Dangan Ronpa Another Episode: Ultra Despair Girls
Shin: "Well, we'll be going ahead. Stay here you two and rest up. I'll be back in a bit."
After Shin regrouped with his comrades who crashed the armored truck due to the attack of the Monokuma he decided to split up and head towards the secret way out of Towa City with Komaru and Nagisa. No one had died in the crash, yet Drake and Sachi were in no condition to be moved. Drake had exhausted his Faith Energy and his fatigue for the loss of his arm was catching up to him. As for Sachi she hit her head on the windshield of the truck during the car crash hard. She was still live thanks to her fit body as a trained assassin and immediate emergency care on herself, yet it was clear to all that she needed some time to rest. And so Shin and Komaru had Nagisa continue their journey alone after leaving Drake and Sachi in an abandoned building. Even if there were to be more attacks from the Monokuma, Shin expected that they would prioritize the participant of the Demon Hunting Game Komaru and the traitor of the Warriors of Hope Nagisa as targets, and leave hos two injured comrades alone.
From the crashed and no longer operable armored truck Nagisa said that the way out of the city wasn't too far away from where they were and was well within running distance. Thankfully they wouldn't be going too far so the two left behind wouldn't be erased from separating from Komaru. Ten minutes later and without a single Monokuma or Monokuma Kid in sight to hinder them they arrived. A Japanese temple with a long staircase leading into the main temple up a hill. Shin seeing the temple up close Shin had mixed feelings. First was because the last time he had visited a *temple*, was back in the world of Apocalypse Alice where he had to fight the difficult Diseased Girl with the looming threat of thousands of magic monsters flooding in all to wipe out his team. The second and most pressing reason Shin felt anxious was because of Komaru. He had yet to think of a way to keep her with his team so they could continue to follow the plot.
Nagisa: "...We're here. It's at this temple."
Nagisa then went ahead up towards the main temple.
Komaru: "We should get going as well..."
Shin: "..."
Komaru: "...Shin?"
Shin: "Hey, is this really okay?"
Shin truly didn't know what to say and he couldn't force Komaru to stay he thought of her as a comrade after fighting together through many battles. In the back of his mind he always thought he could tie her up if he had to and carry her with him.. but he couldn't. It wasn't something like he fell for Komaru. Shin liked Komaru more than just like as she was a good looking Video Game heroine, yet it was far from love. Still he couldn't force Komaru to stay with physical force. Shin was prepared to do many many things to keep himself and his comrades alive, but he couldn't harm someone who had fought closely alongside of and talked with on many occasions even if Komaru was ultimately a NPC. There was the time where he fought Saki to the death in the real world, but at that time she threatened to do everything within her power to kill him and their Team Japan comrades. That's why Shin could only fall back on the lines used by Toko Fukawa to try to convince her.
Komaru: "What are going to do, Shin. Are you really going to stay in the city?"
Shin: "Yeah. I have to save my comrades who have been capture and brainwashed... and that probably means defeating the Warriors of Hope and Monokuma to do so. To sum things up I have to save Towa City to save what's important to me."
Komaru: "...Right. Hey... What do you think, honestly! Is it better for me to remain in Towa City. You won't be alone even if I leave... but do you need my help after all. Shin... do you want me to stay?"
Shin: "...I'll be honest. You're presence would help me a lot. Your Megaphone Hacking Gun is a powerful tool against the Monokumas. Your power can absolutely help me and without you Drake, Sachi, and myself could die with only our power. Our power is great, but we're up against an army of Monokumas lead by someone who has been basically toying with us all long. You've felt it as well, right? Whenever something good happens or we come close to accomplishing something we end up failing. That's why against such a adversary I need all the power that I can gather. That's the truth Komaru."
Komaru: "...I see. I've been trying my best to escape all this time so I can meet my parents and big brother, but now that the time has come I don't feel good leaving things like this. Abandoning you, Drake, Sachi, and all of the adults of Towa City. I think that I would regret it later. If you need me to stay, no I want to say if I'm needed... but first up you have to do something for me."
Shin: "Sure. Anything that you want. The Ultimate Protagonist can do anything for-"
Komaru: "Can you tell me the truth about yourself and all the strange things that have been going on around you? You're comrades disappear out of thin air. You don't seemed scared, or rather surprise by all the events going on. Also, along with Sachi and Drake your all so secretive. If I'm to join you till the end of this battle to save Towa City... I need you to tell me the truth."
Shin: "...Komaru, that's-"
- *EXPLOSION*!
As Shin tried to gather the words to respond to Komaru's sudden and surprising request the sounds of a explosion could be heard. It came from the top of the staircase where the main temple sits and where Nagisa went ahead to wait for them. Shin and Komaru didn't understand what was going on, yet they began to run towards the main temple to find out.
☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆
Komaru: "Wait, that man is..."
Magician Monokuma: "Yo, Shin. Took you long enough."
Shin: "...Jin."
Shin and Komaru raced to the top of the temple grounds where Nagisa should be waiting for them, yet once they arrived they were greeted by a strange sight. Standing over the unconscious body of Nagisa was a male youth about seventeen or eighteen who was familiar to both Komaru and Shin. For Komaru the youth wearing a half Monokuma mask and wearing a wrinkled blue jacket was the man who returned her Megaphone Hacking Gun and also placed the Monokuma Bracelet/bomb around her neck. As for Shin of course he knew who the man in the mask was. Like with Hikari, Shuai, and Kisara the man in front of them was one of his comrades brainwashed by the Guide Izuru Kamukura, Team Japan's mastermind strategist and magic enhancer Jin
Shin: (That's Jin alright, but what's going on? How is he speaking to me normally? What is he doing here and what did he do to the temple?)
Shin had a lot of questions being face to face with Jin, or Magician Monokuma once more, but the question that stood out the most was what did he do to the temple. Shin gazed around the temple ground and found a knocked over Hokora and a large section of the ground wet and turned to mud. Their hasn't been any rain recently and there was only a pool of mud by the Quagmire magic spell.
Jin: "Ah, are you wondering what am I doing here, or what have I been doing, Shin? No need to choose since I'll start from the beginning. Haha! I'm kinda like a explanation character right now. Anyways, after the Guide brainwashed us all and we left you behind on the roof of the hospital building he made contact with Monaca Towa of the Warriors of Hope and they came to a understanding. Monaca wouldn't bother him or try to use more force than necessary to get rid of us outsiders and in exchange he lent us to the Warriors of Hope as combatants. I took over the role of Nagito Komaeda who directed the Monokuma Kids who help Komaru and to do my job he allowed me more freedom than the others, yet I'm still under his control. Really, I haven't been messing around just to screw with you! I promise! I'm just that kind of worthless existence that I just had no choice but to do my job... even if it meant helping the enemy. Ah, I should just say this now, but good job! I've watched you from hidden surveillance feeds throughout Towa City and I have to say I'm impressed. You've overcome truly difficult challenges, found the time to recruit first rate Newbies who had unlocked the Genetic Constraint, and you even improved your abilities alone the way! That double acceleration technique and the Spirit Wave+Gravity Blade combination that took down two of those super fighter robots effortlessly was insane! The later of which should at least be a BB tier offensive attack! Long as you have that I don't believe any of the robots of the Warriors of Hope will stand a-"
Shin: "Jin!"
Shin shouted at Magician Monokuma who had begun to go on a rant with a faint look of madness in his eyes. Jin had honestly enjoyed watching Shin and his teams struggle for their lives in superpower robot battles against the Monokuma and Warriors of Hope. There was a genuine look of fanaticism on his face and Shin instinctively felt like punching him and stabbing Holy Sword Switch into his heart to shut him up, yet he refrained from doing so. Magician Monokuma was a *ally* who had been brainwashed by the Guide, yet had retained his personality and allowed some freedom of action. This was a chance to gain important information, so he didn't want the chance to slip by.
Magician Monokuma: "Fine fine. I'll tell you what you want to no. First, our remaining comrades Aqua and Connor are just fine. Aqua should be personally guarding Monaca Towa at the headquarters of the Warriors of Hope, Towa Hills. As for Connor he should be under the command of this guy here though he probably won't show up till you guys break into-"
Komaru: "Hey. Nagisa... Is he-"
Magician Monokuma: "Dead? No, just unconscious as I put him to sleep after telling him about what Monaca truly wanted out of Towa City. He snapped, but I put him to sleep so I can concentrate on my task."
Shin: "Task?"
Magician Monokuma: "Yes. I came here to make sure Komaru here couldn't escape Towa City and get in Team Japan's way."
Komaru: "Huh?"
Komaru had a confused look about her, but Magician Monokuma seemingly not caring continued to talk about why he was here. Taking the role of Nagito, Magician Monokuma arrived to this temple where the emergency escape route of the Warriors of Hope was hidden. In the original plot Nagito used words to manipulate Komaru and Toko Fukawa to have them work together to save the city and to not leave, yet Magician Monokuma used a more forceful method. He knocked out Nagisa and used his magic spell Quagmire to collapse and flood the hidden escape route underneath the temple Hokora with mud making it unaccessible.
Komaru: "Why... Why would you-"
Magician Monokuma: "Hahaha! Because your a tool for Shin and my team's success, dear Komaru. It would be inconvenient for us if you left Towa City. Without the rest of Team Japan to support his actions he doesn't have the ability to handle these insane kids if they went all out, so for his, my own, and the sake of the team we need you to play your role... Ah, more than one role if you know the plot."
Shin: "Jin!"
Komaru: "..."
Magician Monokuma: "Ah... Did I go too far? Haha! My bad. Sorry, but I think I'm enjoying this villain role more than I should. I wonder why? Anyways, you can convince Komaru if you try Shin... your a protagonist aren't you and a man that I respect after all. Now then..."
Magician Monokuma eyes defocused as he circulated his Intermediate Rank Magic Power throughout his body jumped back ten meters. Once he landed he swung the magic staff "The Arrogant Water Dragon King - Aqua Heart" from his back and pointed it forward while activating a spell. Casting Mana Shield around himself a transparent blue orb materialized around him.
Shin: "What are you-"
Magician Monokuma: "Obviously I'm getting ready for battle. I was given a lot of freedom by the Guide, Shin, but I've still been programed to attack you on sight and I just can't hold myself back anymore. My role as Nagito has also come to a end. I've already made preparation for everything that's to come. Honestly... I would very much like to watch you overcome the Despair of this city as you bravely fight your way to save Towa City and undo the brainwashing on your comrades...! But you know, fighting you to the death to see if you worthy of being Team Japan's leader sounds just as fun as well! I of course don't want to die or fail here, but if you're only so powerful that you fall here... it's just a matter of choosing to die now than later when you meet up with the Guide! Hahah! Get ready!"
Magician Monokuma directed it's magic power through his arm holding onto The Arrogant Water Dragon King and a distortion began. The blue crystal at the end of the magic staff which was bright blue dyed to a midnight blue and red orb of power materialized at its center. Everyone present felt immense danger coming from the magic staff now gathering a cool frost mist around the crystal. At that point Shin saw madness take over Magician Monokuma's mind, body and soul. Even without brainwashing Shin couldn't help but feel that Jin, Magician Monokuma was perfectly okay with having a serious death match.
☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆
- *EXPLOSION*!
Shin: "Fuck you Jin! Fucking hiding all these abilities! This isn't going to end nicely for you!"
Ten seconds have passed since there battle began and Shin was on the defensive running for his life from a barrage of magic attacks from Magician Monokuma. Magician Monokuma began their battle by showing off spells he had never seen before, yet that want the reason Shin was on the run. Carried in his arms was a confused and terrified Komaru and the unconscious Nagisa wrapped up in his Kagune. From the very beginning Magician Monokuma aimed a Frostbolt spell at Komaru and Shin had to rescue her and since then then Magician Monokuma had prioritized attacking her over Shin. Shin picked her up and sped off, but not before getting Nagisa who was important to the plot of chapter 4.
Jin: "You know, I wasn't really hiding anything. I wanted to show off during the next mission to show my worth to the team to fix my low standing. I thought waiting till later to showcase my power would leave the biggest impact, you know, but well what can you do. Frostbolt!"
Jin raised The Arrogant Water Dragon King that now flashed a strange pale blue light as he called out the spell's name. A layer of frost from the staff added onto the spell and a large energy ray was released. Shin holding onto Komaru and Nagisa ran towards the staircase leading down the temple at full speed when he saw the laser beam and jumped down while activating Instant Movement. They fell through the air and touched down at the bottom of the temple. Shin was relived that he avoided the spell but when he looked back he was startled. A 10x10 meter tower of ice stood tall where Magician Monokuma Frostbolt landed and if he and Komaru where directly hit by the ice spell they would frozen solid within the giant ice cub.
Shin: "This guy... Komaru, please wait here till I deal with my asshole of a bad friend up there. I'll also leave Nagisa here with you."
Komaru: "Okay... but... About what he said earlier..."
Shin: "...I promise to tell you everything once I'm done with Jin. No more lies and I'll face you honestly. So please..."
Komaru: "...Fine, but don't die okay. That friend of your is just as insane as those kids if you ask me."
Shin: "...Haha! I completely agree, but he has his moments. That's why I have to beat him down to show him who's the true protagonist is! I'll be back!"
Shin gave one final look at Komaru and then proceeded to return to the battle with Magician Monokuma. He entered the First Stage of Unlocked Mode and jumped into the air and flew up with Void Instant Movement gainning a birds eye view of the temple, but was immediately targeted. A large block of ice the size of a full grown man came flying towards him with the speed of a bullet. Shin saw the attack coming in Unlocked Mode and swiftly stepped away with Void Instant Movement and then looked down at the man who who didn't hesitate to send over his technique acquired from Skill Mastery. Shin remaining in the air with his advance foot technique looked incredibly furious at Magician Monokuma who looked honestly disappointed having missed killing Shin.

Magician Monokuma: "Shame. Ice Shell missed."
Shin: "Well, well. Haven't just all of your techniques just upgraded themselves since the last time I saw them. The last time I saw that spell you still haven't exchanged for it from God and it was only the size of a bowling ball. Were you hiding that as well?"
Magician Monokuma: "Well, you can't just blame this on me Shin. I hid some new techniques, but my recent growth of the scale of ice I can create is thanks to some advice from The Guide and this here."
Magician Monokuma saying so tapping his magic staff, The Arrogant Water Dragon King a few time and fragments of frost scattered in the wind. At the same time the midnight blue crystal at the top of the magic tool glowed brightly.
Magician Monokuma: "It's all because of the influence of The Guide. For the sake of challenging you he gave me a few tips on how to improve my magic. He said I had a high affinity with magic, so I would grasp his advice very easily. I think he did similar things to the others under his control, but for me he showed me how to turn my magic staff, The Arrogant Water Dragon King, into a Supporter with my Warlock Mutation from Witch Hunter (Manuwa). After becoming a Supporter, all my magic spells have less than 1/10 their original cost and the power of ice, water, and earth spells increased by a few levels. Isn't this amazing Shin! Also, there are no down sides to this ability other than maintaining the connection with new Supporter with magic power, but even that doesn't have a high consumption cost! As you would say I've become OP. See, not my fault right!?"
Shin: "...That so. Well, I still won't feel satisfied unless I 99/100th kill you, Jin!"
In a rage Shin took out Gravity Blade and shot through the air with Void Movement towards Magician Monokuma. His speed was faster than a bullet and Magician Monokuma with only 3-4 times the Muscle Density of a moral human and a low Reaction Speed stat he couldn't hope to escape Shin. Shin saw that a Mana Shield was still protecting Magician Monokuma, yet unconcerned he slashed down at him with a increased weight slash from Gravity Blade. He recalled the enemy's magic shield was only so strong to block a few hits from a machine gun in training or one strong attack, and so he was certain his attack break through his defense.
Shin: (Even if it's improved somewhat it won't be able to... huh?)
As Shin's sword made contact with Magician Monokuma' Mana Shield it easily slipped through and slashed him as if he was cutting through mist... yet that was exactly what it was. Shin felt no physical resistance as his sword slashed Magician Monokuma and immediately afterwards Magician Monokuma evaporated into blue smoke. Shin was confused, but had no time to consider things as a beam of ice from the side captured him, freezing him in a solid block of ice. The temple grounds were silent afterwards and appearing out of thin air using the Illusion Shroud spell was Magician Monokuma who was smiling with his lips, yet his eyes only showed disappointment.
Magician Monokuma: "I won't fault you for not knowing that I improved all my spells including Illusion Shroud, but Shin... this is still the real world in way. No one talks during a battle for no reason. I was obviously preparing for a magic to create a illusionary clone of myself while hiding my real body. Ahhh.... How disappointing that this is all that you are-"
-*CRACK*!
- *SHATTERING*!
As Magician Monokuma was speaking cracks surfaced on the cube of ice and a second later the cube burst opened and a shadowy figure moving at extreme speed flew through the air towards him. Magician Monokuma reentered Unlocked Mode of the First Stage without hesitation and casted a unique Mana Shield. This Mana Shield had five overlapping layers to it for added defense, but all the same as a sonic boom rang out Magician Monokuma was blown away crashing into a far off wall with three layers of shields smashed open. Half in a daze he looked over towards the figure and saw Shin standing where he just was with his left hand extended releasing an aura of Ki.
Shin: "...I used Soul Crushing Strike to bypass your shield, but I didn't expect a multi-layered shield, but that doesn't matter. Jin, stop trash talking and fight if you came here to fight!"
Shin without waiting for a reply jumped at Magician Monokuma while summoning his Kagune. Six blood red tentacles swirled through the air and given the order to attack they darted towards the prey in front of them. Shin was confident that even if Magician Monokuma used Mana Shield to defend he would still win. The Kagune tentacles would wrap around the orb shaped shield capturing Magician Monokuma. Shin would be free to beat on him till the defensive spell brakes. That was the plan, but-
- *BANG*!!!!
-yet it wasn't easily to realize. Magician Monokuma in the First Stage swiftly drew his Mana Gun Colt Custom Gold and opened fire releasing invisible Mana Bullets. The six Kagune tentacles were riddled with bullets from the Mana Gun and Shin was next. Shin sensing the danger at the latest second entered the Second Stage and jumped away with Void Movement and coating his body Silver Dragon Scales. Magician Monokuma continued to open fire at him, yet half the bullets missed while the other only pierced one inch deep into his right forearm and the left side of his torso.
Shin fell to the floor to recover and felt but thankful and frightened at the power of Magician Monokuma's Mana Gun. The Mana Gun couldn't break his defense, yet it came extremely close. Shin's body had been enhanced over and over again and had the benefits a defensive Ki skill and the strength of Second Stage, yet the D tier magic gun almost shredded him full of hole and a chill went down his spine and his eyes went cold seeing how close to death he had come. If he hadn't prioritized protecting his head and heart...
Shin: "Jin!"
And in a rage Shin charged once more at Magician Monokuma with a burst of speed and with each step he took the ground mini explosions detonated. Magician Monokuma aimed the Mana Gun at him, yet his eyes couldn't follow him as he became a blur. Shin wasn't confident in dodging the Mana Gun's invisible bullets moving through the air with Void Movement and so fell back on the more comfortable and more used to Instant Movement and it worked. Magician Monokuma was unable to follow Shin's ghostly speed and was knocked around again and again by his relentless attacks. He defended with multi-layered Mana Shield, but each of Shin's attacks had crushing force and slowly the shield was pried open by increased weight magic slashes and Soul Crushing Strike. Then as Magician Monokuma Mana Shield was broken-
Jin: "Hahaha! Real magic battles are tough, yet fun. Ice Missile!"
Shin's last attacked blew Magician Monokuma off his feet flying towards the temple building and as he was about to slam into a supporting beam he raised his magic staff and casted a spell. Three stars of light in the shape of arrows appeared floating in the air releasing a cold frost and shot forward towards Shin as Magician Monokuma smashed into the supporting beam. Seeing the incoming attack Shin jumped to the side yet to his shock the three stars turned to follow him and even accelerated further like seeker missiles. He jumped further back with Instant Movement and seeing the Ice Arrows continuing their pursuit Shin raised his right hand and opened fire with three Far Bullets. The transparent and slow Ki bullet were lined up to meet the Ice Arrows and on contact both attacks detonated. Far Bullet was Shin's least damaging Ki attack, yet was designed to strike magic and spiritual entities rather than damage flesh and blood beings.
Magician Monokuma attack failed, yet it gave him the time to recover from his earlier collision as he began to sprint away from Shin. Magician Monokuma's right arm was broken in half and was causing him enough pain to pass out, yet he remained as calm as possible with mentality acquired by Unlocked Mode and began to cast his next spell. Seeing this Shin didn't know what to say about Magician Monokuma determination which was both aspiring and unneeded here, yet he made up his mind. Shin wanted to defeat his comrade without wasting too much Ki or stamina, yet Magician Monokuma's potential for magic far surpassed what he thought he was capable of.
Shin: (Is this what one calls a natural born genius, or is this the result of his mysterious bloodline? In any case it's time to go all out!)
Shin resolving himself Shin spent over a quarter of his totally Ki to activate the Red Moon Formation of the Lesser Fenrir Coat. A blood red aura enveloped his body and the symbol of the full moon appeared on the back of his magic coat. Shin's overall stats skyrocketed for the next sixty seconds and not wasting any time he kicked both the land and air for double acceleration to reach Magician Monokuma in the shortest time possible. Previously he was also worried about a counter attack while he was flying through the air from Magician Monokuma, yet that was now no longer a concern.
Shin's speed far surpassed what Magician Monokuma was capable of following even in Unlocked Mode and currently the red aura around Shin acted as a barrier and protected him from all forms of attacks and only a attack of a very high scale could hope to break through his defense, yet even now his opponent didn't give up. The incoming danger approaching spurred ability to act and reaching a deeper level of Unlocked Mode. Magician Monokuma had almost reached the borderline to enter the Second Stage. Has still a few steps away from doing so, but at the very least his magic casting speed became lighting fast and was able to unleash a new spell just before Shin reached him.
Ice Wall.
A tall and thick wall of ice materialized out of thin air before Magician Monokuma and Shin slammed fist first into the wall with Soul Crushing Strike. On impact an explosion of Ki detonated and the wall of ice nearly shattered, Shin's left hand broke through the wall and was a inch away from reaching Magician Monokuma's eyes staring in disbelief. Shin not disturbed by the appearance of another new spell was about to smash through the wall of ice on its last leg, but realized that at some point his body was unable to move.
Magician Monokuma: "Sorry Shin. The selling point of ice magic isn't destructive power, but capturing the enemy by lowering body temperature or encasing them in ice. Ice Wall has that effect. Not only is Ice Wall my strongest two-dimensional defensive technique, anything that touches it will be frozen solid from the outside in. You double acceleration technique is amazing, but it became your undoing since Ice Wall is just a one sided wall unlike the full body covering Mana Shield which is ideal for defending against three-dimensional attacks. If you had the ability to just run or fly around Ice Wall then you would not have lost."
Shin: "!!!"
Shin wanted to say something to the arrogant Magician Monokuma, yet by this point in time his body was completely in cased in ice and for whatever reason Red Moon Formation's barrier wasn't protecting him. Shin also tried to break out with brute force, yet Magician Monokuma hand placed his hand on Ice Wall and was continuing to pour Mana into it to increase the speed of capture and reinforce the ice from breaking. By this point Magician Monokuma was running out of Mana, so it was up in the air whether he could continue to keep Shin detained long enough to suffocate him within the ice, or he would run out of energy and lose, yet running out of options and not willing to wait to suffocate to death, encased in ice Shin used one his ultimate techniques, Spirit Wave.
Shin: (I real didn't want to use Spirit Wave, but fortunately the only major battle left today is the battle at the Monokuma Factory. Spirit Wave... The way I normally use it is enough to break out of this with ease... but let's give him a scare!)
Just as Magician Monokuma confirmed that Shin had become a living ice sculpture a pale blue light illuminating from Shin's entire body blinded him. Shin activated his ultimate Ki technique Spirit Wave. From the core of his Ki, the navel, a light shined brightly and then all too quickly spreader throughout the body without exception, converting the normally green Ki into a stronger, higher tier of energy. Shin normally used this energy for a focused punch, kick, or sword slash that would be certain to defeat his enemy, but this time he did not do that. As the pure energy within himself was ready to violently explode have not been given instructions... Shin did nothing to stop it.
The ice encasing Shin blew apart and a colossal wave of energy spread outward in all directions in a AOE blast sweeping up Magician Monokuma at ground zero. It was a powerful wide area attack that even tore down the nearby temple, but Shin knew that the large blast was just for show and was not as devastating as it appeared. It could kill a man of above average strength, but for those with powerful enhancements would just be blown away by the wave of unfocused energy. Still, Magician Monokuma was blown over 300 meters falling down the hill behind the temple and only came to a stop after after hit a tree with his back.
When Shin ran to follow after him he saw Magician Monokuma with almost every bone in his body broken, his spine snapped and barley hanging on for dear life spitting blood. Seeing this he felt a pang of regret. Shin knew if he or someone like Aqua was caught up in a similar blast he wouldn't have been as damaged as Magician Monokuma, maybe break a arm or leg at most and some bruises, yet in his earlier anger he forgot that Magician Monokuma enhancements leaned more on magic and the mind rather than physical strength. Magician Monokuma indeed had Mana for a whole body enhancement and mutation to support him, yet the fall down the hill and crashing hard into a tree and snapping his back didn't help. Shin then in a panic leaped towards Magician Monokuma and stabbed his heart with Holy Switch to avoid him dying in the mission world and just before he was rejected out of the Mission World by God, Magician Monokuma, Jin said his last words before leaving.
Jin: "Haha! *cough*! It's a shame that I lost, but it was fun. We have to do this again some-, *COUGH*!!"
Shin: "Shut up you crazy bastard and sorry excuse for a comrade! I got carried away as well, but I won't have your death on my conscious!"
Jin: "Haha-, *COUGH*! Fine then... Shin, there should be a big pile of corpses down by the entrance to the temple. Check under the body of the man with a shirt stained in blood with the number 7. I left something good. See ya."
And like so, with a smile on his face that didn't suit his character Jin left the world of Dangan Ronpa leaving Shin behind. Shin only felt like saying good riddance to see him off and left to check on Komaru and the unconscious Nagisa.

I don't think Magic Power from Mushoku Tensei alone could increase physical strength, but I remembered that Laplace couldn't use Fighting Spirit, but used magic power to instead directly strength his inner body. Its a dangerous method for a normal human so Rudeus never tried it I think, but Jin who has a magic type mutation can handle magic power.
