ShangriLa Frontier Chapter 307 Part 1

ShangriLa Frontier Chapter 307: Communication Boss Rush Part 1

Who would have thought that the wandering last bosses do exist!? And in real life, no less!?

The confrontation between myself and that old man was unavoidable at this point. But for now, what occurred here between the two of us was nothing but a heavy and awkward silence. What is this? Is this some sort of a shtick for this family here? Are the all men in Saiga family as fierce-looking as Ryuuguin Fugaku!? Just look at that size of that arm of this man’s! I bet that he would be able to strangle a shark to death if he wanted to! I wonder what his stats would be in the gaming world? Most probably his age would give him a minus modification to Strength, but surely the Dexterity would be off the charts.

「…… Huh!?」

Oh no, don’t do that, my thoughts! Stop wandering off into the land of video gaming! This is the real world right here and right now! But I guess this cannot really be helped here. I mean, the oppressive aura of this old man here is so severe that my mind just wanted to escape somewhere else all on its own. Yup, so it could not be helped here.

However, the thing that I have picked up…… No matter how you look at it, it is not something that grows naturally on the floor. So it is only plausible that someone must have dropped it. Oh yeah, I heard that there is a season for them right now, so that would explain a whole lot……

「Ah, aaahhh…… I’m sorry, it was my bad.」

「Umu.」

「Please excuse me, sir, but are you perhaps into the salmon fishing? I have heard that the number of salmon this season is even greater than in the previous seasons.」

The thing that managed to catch my eyes was obviously a fishing lure. And not just any normal fishing lure, but the one meant for catching salmon, without a doubt. I remember that because I have seen my Dad preparing them before his outings on numerous occasions.

「I was told that there was so much of it that you could technically catch and eat it to your heart’s content, but you also need to be mindful of the market and the overall economy, so……」

「Hoo…… You sure know your stuff. Are you into fishing yourself, boy?」

「Ah, god damn it…… I mean, nguhh, somewhat, I guess……? But the one who is really into fishing is my Father, not me personally, so…… So not, I cannot say that fishing is my hobby, sir.」

I really wished that this here would serve as the end to this unwanted conversation……But I guess it would not be that easy for me here. So in order to survive until the time would be up, I had to muster up all of my dating sim knowledge in order to conquer this here event with this male opponent as my conversation partner. Let’s just hope that the conversation here will not have any landmines that I can accidentally step on.

「Certainly, I heard that the north is a really good place for fishing right about now.」

「Umu, there is no better place for bonito fishing than the north this season. However, this specific lure was recommended to me by my friend, so I was going to give it a try one of these days.」

「Using the right lure for the right fish, you automatically increase the chances of making a big catch…… Oh yeah, that’s right. I still remember that when I was in elementary school, my father took me for sea bass fishing, but I was too weak and I ended up falling into the sea when the fish got hooked.」

Thinking about it right now, I guess it was a really great and funny experience. I can still hear my dad yelling “Let go of the rod! Let go of the rod!” in my direction, but I would still refuse to let it go, because I wanted to catch the damned thing so badly. Even if it meant getting swept away by the current.

「…… Fumu, sometimes life truly is that way.」

Good, good, so far so good. How do you like that, huh? The legendary technique of applying the stories from one’s past to the conversation to keep the nice flow going. But you have to be careful with that technique, for you can overuse it and you will end up bragging all on your own, which will inevitably lower your favor bar with the given character.

「I mean, I was forced to finally let go of the rod and eventually my father jumped in after me to help me. But it was not all bad, because we later managed to score a really big amberjack. So it was good in the end.」

「I like the flow of this story so far……」

「Right, but this amberjack turned out to be quite a glutton. He was trying to gobble up the whole line as well, and he managed to rip the fishing rod out of my father’s hands!」

「Hahahahahaha! Now that’s unexpected! I knew they can get greedy, but not to this extent!」

「Hahahaha, fortunately, father was alright, and we managed to catch that amberjack, so all well that ends well, I guess……」

I also remember that after we managed to catch that amberjack, my dad stroked my head and laughed, saying that hopefully we might be able to catch even bigger fish in the future. It was all foggy and hazy in my head, but I clearly remember that happiness I felt at that moment.

Dad, I am proud to announce to you that all those years later, your son finally managed to catch a whale on the bottom of the ocean. Well, it was in a video game, but still, a catch is a catch, no matter what……

Not to mention that my dad got so good at fishing that he was able to catch a marlin on his own.

「Fumu…… I see…… I see…… Sea bass fishing, child getting dragged into the water, and then catching the amberjack……」

Please, I beg of you, Saiga-san! Come here and save me! I cannot do this on my own! Fishing talk will only get me so far! Please save me! What is taking you so long!

I knew it! It was a bad idea on my part! Starting a conversation about a topic I only knew bits and pieces about! But we need to talk about something here! We cannot both just get all silent! That would be too awkward for me to handle!

While I was desperately trying to maintain the smiley mask that was about to crumble any minute now, I started to send the S.O.S signals from deep within my heart.

「…………」

「…………」

Just then the sliding door moved, and the one who appeared in them was none other than Saiga-san, who right away looked at my panicked expression.

「……!! (Trying to retract behind the sliding door and pretend she was not here)」

「……!! (Blinking at high speed, desperately asking for help)」

Help! Please help me here! It’s impossible here! Solo clear is impossible!

Saiga-san must have understand my pleas for help, for she took a deep breath and walked into the room from behind the sliding door.

「Umm, Grandpa……」

「Ohh, is that you, Rei? Is this young man someone from your school?」

「Y-Yes, that’s right! W-We go to the same school together…… His name is Hizutome-kun.」

「Pleased to make your acquaintance, sir……」

「Fumu…… Hizutome, huh? Now I see……」
