ShangriLa Frontier Chapter 203: Reaching the Heavens Part 9 Part 1

 

 

First there is the feeling of freefalling, then followed by the impact of hitting the “ground”. You couldn’t say that it was the real damage that has been done to use, but surprisingly enough it was still enough to cause poor Emul to faint.

 

「UBEH!?」

 

「FUGYUH!?」

 

In other words, it felt just like when you do some push-ups, but after going at it for a while you feel that your arms start to slowly give up under the notion of “pain”, which eventually causes you to collapse and fall down. Aside from the fact that there was no damage here at all.

 

「Ugh…… The others seem to be fine…… Uh, but my face hurts……」

 

「Emul…… For the love of fuck, I’ll listen to all of your whining and complaining later. For now, grab your weapon.」

 

I see, so this time we still were not transported directly to the boss’s chamber. Even so, talk about a dick move, switching the whole dungeon upside down like that…… But does that mean that something changed here as a result?

 

「T-The castle!」

 

The castle of Lulilas, which we were exploring for a good while now…… No, you can’t really say that it was rearranged. Maybe all it did was to return to its former state.

 

It was as if the whole castle was turned into cubes and those cubes were right now being rearranged in front of our very eyes, although on fast-forward. One castle was fast being replaced by a completely different one…… a supernatural phenomenon that could have never occurred in reality. And there was something else to it as well.

 

「Look. Up there! The sky!」

 

When I rose my head, I could see it clearly. A true night sky, with the moon and the myriad of stars all over it. Not the canopy of sea water with marine snow falling down on us all the time.

 

It was in this rearranging castle that Emul and I have witnessed a true night sky for the first time in seven days.

 

「Won’t it fall down right on top of our heads!?」

 

「…… This looks like an elevator’s shaft, so we should be fine…… at least I think so.」

 

「I wanted you to at least reassure us that it will be okay, even if there is no basis to say so or proof to back that claim up! Rust!」

 

We were so caught up in the sight of the moon way above our heads that we basically forgot that all around us were moving blocks of the castle that was in the middle of rearranging itself. Some of them were circling around us, and some of them were violently falling down, apparently finding its respective places.

 

Right about now it could be said that we were standing in the eye of the cyclone, with parts of the castle flying all around us like an angry tornado. It was not the most heart-calming situation to be in right now.

 

There were pillars erecting all over the place in equal intervals, storm of bricks started to form a flight of stairs, there were candlesticks everywhere serving as the source of light, and in the distance you could see the materials starting to form some sort of a huge and circular arena.

 

「Umm, take a look at that building over there! It looks like that huge landmark in the middle of Rome!」

 

「Huge landmark in Rome…… Italy…… Do you mean Coliseum……?」

 

「Yes! Exactly! That’s the thing!」

 

It’s amazing, isn’t it? Even though it was something so vague, I was still able to get it and answer accordingly, even though I never witnessed the real thing with my own eyes. That being said, the bowl shaped arena surely resembled Coliseum in a frightening detail. …… Well, maybe except for the fact that its size was much larger, making it almost twice the size of the regular baseball dome.

 

「Is everyone alright!?」

 

「Yeah!」

 

「No worries here!」

 

「We are okay here as well!」

 

「I-Im in one piece! As much of a surprise as that is!」

 

Alright, it looks like all of the NPCs are fine. Good to know. As for the other players, they respawn after death, so even though it may sound cruel and heartless, I could not really care about them for the current moment. Not when they would be able to come back to us after a slight delay.

 

By the way, if the organizer of this grand Coliseum went to such lengths to create a building quite like that, does that mean that they want to make this an event or something? If so, I sure hope that they will have masks here in this joint. Then we could have some good old masked wrestling match. A match to the death, that is. Wouldn’t that be quite fitting in here?

 

「Show me!」

 

「Muh.」

 

「Piii!?」

 

Ahh, it seems to me that the NPCs had some sort of problem. Emul kept on shaking on my head like mad, which in turn was causing my head to shake wildly and it was making me feel as though the whole world was starting to spin around. He was also holding his ears down as if he was trying to block the sound that was coming inside of them. What was going on? I had no clue what could caused him to act like that, but I had to quickly get some information.
