ShangriLa Frontier Chapter 412 Part 1

ShangriLa Frontier Chapter 412: What you want to know is the process, Not the Results Part 1

「Umm, it must have been pretty rough right there…… Sorry for not getting there sooner……」

「Ah, well, I mean…… I would lie if I said that it was not starting to get out of hand for a second out there, but I would also lie if I said that I wasn’t stating to have fun with that battle…… I’m sorry……」

「Muh…… You should have. Said from the. Start that you. Are friends with. Saiga-0. Then there would. Have been no. Problems at. All.」

Somehow, this whole situation was making me feel as though I left the house in a hurry for work, only to realize that I have left the gas on the oven running halfway there, and now instead of going in a hurry for work I was going back home in a hurry to fix this. And besides, why is the Elder of the Bug People letting such a sigh in my direction? It was his god damned fault that this whole situation happened in the first place! Because nobody was willing to listen to me!

「Never before I. Would have thought that. I would stumble across. Someone like that. During the course. Of my. Journey……」

If those words are anything to go by, it seems that the Bug People have met Rei before some of them were getting ready to embark on some sort of a journey. Could it have been the one to broaden one’s horizons? …… Or maybe something related to that Imron character? So it’s just that the timing of me appearing here was simply mismatched? Or it was one big misunderstanding of some sort? Well gee, if it was truly something like that, then I’m sorry for causing unnecessary commotion, but you know guys, you are not without a fault here! Communication is key here! Communication! Yes!

I won’t lie here: the battle with that Bug Person that looked like a bee was quite fierce and if it was drawing out for much longer, I’m not all too sure that I would have been able to emerge victorious from it. His fists were strong and their aim was extremely precise, and his tactics kept on improving throughout the fight, growing more and more deadly with each passing second. Yeah, and the impression I was having from that fight…… The longer it took, the more disadvantageous it was becoming for me. So I guess if I were to summarize that guy in one sentence, he would be like a boss character who is becoming increasingly stronger the less HP it has. Or at the very least something alongside those lines.

「Who would have. Thought that. You would be. An even match. For Kokorokokokorekoko. Or was that. Perhaps your aim. From the very start?」

「Huh? Excuse me?」

Yeah, go figure that I would be severely misunderstood here. Not that I was expecting anything else. But to my defense, let me say that that I did not chose to play the villain because I like it, alright!? I came here with a very specific intention in my mind, and you were the ones who imposed that role on me in the first place! I had no choice here but to kind of roll with it……

「Fufu…… You seem to be quite perceptive.」

Let’s neither affirm it nor deny it here. Let’s just praise the Elder Bug for his intellect, I guess. Now, even if he misunderstands my intentions here, it is not really my problem. It’s just a little bargaining technique I happened to pick up from Pencilgton.

「Hoo? Yes, I would. Expect nothing less. From a firend of. Saiga-0.」

「…… I was wondering about that for a while now, but what did you do for those guys to hold in such a high esteem, Rei?」

「N-No, I mean, umm…… Before I knew what was going on, I was right in the middle of a quest connected to this village.」

Ahh, so maybe it’s like that? If the Vorpal Bunnies have a hidden stat like Vorpal Soul, then maybe other races have something like that as well? Considering everything that Rei managed to tell me and the information I gathered myself ever since arriving here, could it be that for Bug People bravery is such stat? Or one’s might as a warrior? I mean, it would actually go hand in hand with Vorpal Soul to some extent, so there would have to be some nuances to it, but that seems to generally be the case in here.

「Hmm, is that so…… Oh yeah, there is something that I actually wanted to consult with you, Rei.」

「Consult…… What could that be?」

「Hmm, you see…… I would like Diale to send me to Rabbitz for a little bit.」

「You would need Diale-san for that? But Sanraku-san already has……」

「You see, there are some circumstances behind my current situation. I don’t want to overwrite the save point I have currently set up, which means that I cannot return to the frontline base in the new continent.」

「Ah…… I see how it is. If you are looking for Diale-san, he should be somewhere around the blacksmith workshop in this village, together with Imron-san.」

「This Imron person…… Is this person connected with another scheme that Pencilgton may be planning?」

「Umm…… W-Well, yes, I suppose that it’s true. Ah, but, you see……」

……? Why the sudden change in tone? Is there something that I should be worried about here?

「You see, Sanraku-san, umm…… It’s just that, Imron-san is not your plain and ordinary blacksmith…… Umm, how should I put it? Oh yes. She seems to be very interested in rare weapons and equipment. And the object of her obsession that is the greatest are the Unique Weapons of the Heroic variety, yes. Stuff like that.」

「…… Oh? Is that so? Interesting, I won’t tell.」

Oh, I see, so it’s something like this, huh? Well, on one hand meeting with that particular person seems like a hassle to me, but on the other hand…… Could it be a possible business opportunity that I smell in here? It would certainly seem that way to me.

「Whoa there! What a Strange-looking person!」

「Thanks, nice to meet you, too. I’m a Strange-looking Person.」

For a while now I could hear remarks like that flying towards me from all directions. The ones saying them were of course young Bug Children who just couldn’t stop themselves from picking up on this outsider that they just saw. However, one glare and a scary pose assumed by me on the spot was more than enough to make them scatter about, screaming and crying. They all looked like the swallowtail larvae, but I wonder…… Could they be pupas, waiting to evolve into something else when they will eventually grow up?

Honestly, I don’t think that the Bug People have accepted me as one of their own, or at least that this moment is not yet here. However, since I am a friend of Rei, a first ever player after Tottori to become well-acquainted or even liked with a demi-human race, and the Elder Bug, this should mean that it is alright for me to be here, right? I mean, the fact that I am right now walking through Bug People village and no one is trying to stop me or downright attack me must mean something, right? Let’s take it for a good omen and proceed just like that.
