ShangriLa Frontier Chapter 366: Antimony Concealment List Part 1
Giant Killing. A very romantic idea that’s been around since the ancient times. A classic sort of story. However, it is also an activity that would be impossible if you and those around you were unable to realize the gaps in your strengths and the weaknesses that might drag you down. Differences in ability is what makes and breaks the game.
In my case, speed and accuracy seem to be my main selling points, but when it comes to agility and critical hit rate I’m not all that bad either.
Unlike Julian, who mostly relies on settling the battles with one decisive blow, I can strike as many hits as I want, without having to worry about them connecting and dealing decent amount of damage. Now, if only I can avoid the other knights, with my stats avoiding Julian’s blows is not going to be a problem either. After all, since he is only targeting vital spots, it will be easy to mount a counterattack after that.
「Ohoho, you’d best make sure that you DPS is more than enough here……!」
「Guh, ooohhh……!!」
After receiving a counter after counter, Julian’s body finally shakes on its legs and the knight falls to the ground. It was only natural that he would be unable to beat me, someone whose level is three digits long after releasing the level cap, upgrading my weapons and even having skills that tremendously boosted my performance here. So I have no idea what his plan here was.
「Well, I guess that finishing you off here would be all too easy as things are right now……」
The skills of the Avenger are still active here, so I wonder if I don’t accumulate any bad karma if I were to kill this chump right now? However, if I end up dyeing my name in red because such a simple reason, there might actually be all sorts of troubles related to that……
「Die……!」
「Whoa, won’t you look at that? My foot just slipped! What a nasty habit of mine!」
「Fugeah!?」
While still kneeling on the ground, all of a sudden Julian launched a surprise attack at me, getting up and thrusting his sword forward. However, I anticipated that something like that might actually happen, so once he got up I was all ready to counter that. And just like that, I simply sucker-punched him straight to the face without holding back after hooking his leg. That being said…… man, I hate skirts and high heels. They are so hard to fight in. At the same time, I really hate the fact that recently I have been fighting as a woman so frequently that I gradually started to get used to it. I really hope that this does not wake some strange desires inside of me……
「Y-You little shit……! I’m going to kill you……!」
You want some more? Fine than, I’m a merciful god, after all. Taste the soil as many times as you want! Ahh, giving people what they want sure feels nice!
But what am I to do here……? With such big of a crowd that’s gathered, I cannot really escape from this situation at all. At the same time, I would really rather not kill that chump if I can help it. Hmm, what to do, what to do……?
「Looks like you are in quite a pickle here, Frauline. Mind getting me up to speed sometime later?」
「Uwah.」
Now, who is this pretentiously handsome, glasses-wearing guy? I think that even Iwamaki-san would not be able to ignore such a hottie…… in a strategic sense of the word, of course.
Not that I’m not used to random new people popping literally out of nowhere at this point in time but…… Whoa, personal space, dude! Ever heard of that? Really now, playing as a man does not suit you at all…… Kukuku, why do I say that? I mean, let us all see that the name tag of this person here is.
Player Name: Arthur Pencilgton
「How about you kick back now, relax and just leave it to me, my dear San.Ra.Ku.-kun~?」
「Fueeh……?」
Not only you look very handsome, but you also drop the lines that only handsome playboys would use in situations like that? It’s such a one eighty from the way Akitsu Akane was acting that it was actually hard to believe for a moment out there. Could it be that Kutanid of the Abyss…… No, thinking about it now, this monster definitely has some weird hobbies out there, without a doubt. This is going to cause quite a stir in sexual orientation of many people, that’s for sure……
「W-Why are you even here……? Shouldn’t you be back at Fifthsia at this time?」
「Nfufufufufu, oh mein Fraulein…… There are many possible destinations that a ship can take for its goal in the middle of the sea.」
What the hell are you even saying…… No way. Please don’t tell me.
「You asshole, you used the escape boat from Lulilas just to come here?」
「My, how rude. It was a pretty dangerous and tiresome trip, you know? I was so hungry that I died from starvation, and then I was revived and died of starvation again. And then the whole process would repeat over and over again.
Am I supposed to feel pity for you for throwing yourself into a death march like that? Should have went straight back to the old continent, you dumb fuck. Why are you even here in the first place?
「Does that mean that Katsu and others are here as well?」
「Well, of course, what else did you expect? That being said, I am kind of in a hurry here, so I’m going to offer you a choice…… What do you say to that, the Third Knight Julian?」
The true meaning behind the actions that the First Prince was undertaking was nothing more but a mere coup d’état. And it can be said with utmost certainty that the vast majority of players here will side with the former king here…… Or rather, they will proclaim the former king as the true king and the First Prince as the usurper. Then we also have the desire of the First Prince to conquest the new continent under the banner of raging war against demi-humans. Treating demi-humans as slaves will not gain you popularity with the players, that’s for sure. There may be some exceptions here and there, but that’s the gist of it.
Of course, it’s impossible for all the players to be of one mind when it comes to anything in this game. There are those who will side with the First Prince for sure. Especially if the information will start leaking and spread all over…… However, right about now this NPC is surrounded by the players who would most likely turn against him if they get to know what is going on here. Should it come to that, Julian would be in a tight spot, one of which he would have one hell of trouble to get out of.
And above all else, it’s no longer just Tottori…… Tottori and his People of the Forest that were giving us the advantage here. With Pencilgton being here, this means that the whole Kutanid of the Abyss’s battle team was here as well, having gone through the same kind of death march. This means that right now, after coming from Lulilas to the new continent, the former king technically has the top members of both “Black Sword and Library on his side. So if push comes to shove here, Julian and his people have no actual chance of winning.
「And no matter how many times you cut us down here, we are going to revive over and over again.」
Should you try to go against the impossible odds like that, you will surely find out what the essence of shitty games is. And believe me, this is not going to be pretty.
And I am more than sure that the rest of the knights here are not willing to become the prisoners of war just so that Julian’s plan can proceed forward. No one should ever be this loyal to someone who would not appreciate the sacrifice like that.
