ShangriLa Frontier Chapter 418: United Light From the Abyss Part 2
Rust: We should have no problem with attending on that day.
Akane Akitsu: Alright! Same here! No problem at all!
Katsu: If it was all going down in about two weeks’ time, I would not be able to participate, but like that I should be able to make some space free in my schedule. Count me in.
Kyogoku: Ah, is it all going to go down in the morning? If so, it might be a little bit hard for me to do it, but I will see what I can do about that.
Pencil Warrior: I think I’m going to get myself a day off just for the occasion. Might be the best course of action here.
Pencil Warrior: Well, the only ones left to make a declaration here as Saiga-chan and our lovely gunball.
Saiga-0: I’m fine with that, no problems here.
Saiga-0: Would you like me to try and contact Sanraku to see what his take on this situation is?
Pencil Warrior: I see how it is. But oh well, our dear Sanraku-kun should be fine with whatever we decide on anyway, so I guess that there is no need to hear from him right about now.
Pencil Warrior: Hmm?
Pencil Warrior: But don’t you think it’s a little bit strange here? Or maybe even messed up, when you go down and think about it?
Katsu: Hm? What’s wrong? What are you talking about?
Rust: …… Yeah. I mean, right about now Sanraku doesn’t respond to emails or SNS chats.
Rust: And that ghosting should be the case for everyone in here, without exception.
Katsu: Oh, now I see it. Yeah, you’re right.
Saiga-0: …… Hm? See? See what? What’s wrong?
Pencil Knight King: Hmm, Saiga Sister-chan … To hear from someone who doesn’t respond to emails or anything.
Katsu: …… You would have to know each other in real life, or even be able to meet by means other than message boards and games, right? Preferably in real life?
Saiga-0: …… Umm, no……?
Saiga-0: I mean…… Umm…… This is……
Saiga-0: …… Telepathy. I can do…… telepathy…… Yes, that’s it……
Kyogoku: ……Telepathic communication is impossible, you know that, right? Are you sure you’re feeling ok?
Kyogoku: I mean…… If you live close to one another so that you could go out and meet up it would totally make sense, nothing really weird about it.
Pencil Warrior: I’m sure that your player names are not just imaginary names, so……
Pencil Warrior: Oh my, seriously? Like that it would totally make sense. Now I see.
Saiga-0: No, it’s not that! Please, wait……
Katsu: It’s okay, you don’t have to worry about anything. I am not someone as distasteful as to go around and spread someone else’s personal information behind their back and without permission.
Pencil Warrior: I’m just going to wait until the right moment to use that information for my own benefit somehow! Oh, I can’t wait to fan some flames with that!
Kyogoku: Girl, are you really a demon or what……?
Pencil Warrior: You know what? You don’t really have to be a genius to be able to notice when someone is making a joke, right? At least I always thought that’s the case.
Rust: …… But wasn’t that joke like in a really poor taste? Or no, it was pretty demon-like if you were to ask me.
Mold: Best not to think about it. Otherwise we might stumble upon a fact that we are not ready to handle. Or something that is going to make us die from laughter.
Akane Akitsu : ……??? Hmm? Huh? What? Say what?
* * *
「All right, you fuckface! Another one bites the fucking dust!!!」
What a shame, Dark General! What a shame! If only your final form was something else than a scorpion, maybe you would have stood a chance! But sorry, not happening anytime soon! You have no one to blame for this defeat but yourself! Don’t underestimate my expertise when it comes to scorpion fighting!
「But what the hell is this chilling sensation going down my spine……?」
Intuition and premonitions are something native of Bakumtsu Online, according to my knowledge there should not have been anything like that being implemented in Kazegumo President. Or was it?
Oh well, it doesn’t really matter all that much, thinking about it will accomplish nothing…… Despite receiving a clear report from Takeda-san and trying to capture the game on my own, I was having a somewhat difficult of a time.
First of all, the skill level of the enemy army is raised quite a bit in comparison to the first half of the game, and even with the President working his ass off, the victory was not as easy to accomplish as one might think.
After eating the Emperor, the newly resurrected Last Boss Demon Lord a acquired for himself a buff called “The Emperor’s Might”. And after being defeated during the cutscene, the secretary character was abducted by him alongside the holy relic “Unification Flag”, and now the United States as well as the rest of the world were cast into quite the uproar.
I always thought that this is but a stat up item without any deeper meaning to it, but apparently that was not the case here. Apparently without a common symbol to rally them up for the common cause, the troops would start to lose morale and the worst case scenario they might even choose to desert the army.
In short, if you don’t get a result of A Rank or higher, the stats of your entire army will be cut in half. And with that sort of handicap, the road for clearing the game might be indeed quite thorny, difficult and far away.
Takeda-san has already cleared the game, but he was in a state where he did not talk much about what to do to make the game easier for those still struggling with it, but it seems that he improved the skills of his army by accumulating high scores against small fries from random encounters around the map.
「But that’s not a path that I dare to choose……!」
My manpower is the strongest in the entire world, and I’ll show you what kind of warfare I can wage…… In other words, it’s time to beat some troops into shape!
In this game, the difficulty of the battles is directly connected to the personal strength of the President, as well as the overall strength of his army. The stronger the troops are, the lower the difficulty of the mission and the number of enemy troops they would have to fight.
But even when your troops are the most op and broken powerful in the entire world, there are just some enemies that they cannot beat no matter what…… Honestly, I don’t really get it sometimes.
When it comes to the overworld battles, you let only the strongest troops with the highest chance of survival sortie out! And if you deploy troops whose stats are all B+ or higher, you even get a bonus to survivability! And the rest is a simple repetition of the already confirmed op solo President tactics.
「General Purgatory is dead. General Dark has been dealt with for the time being…… So, just how many generals that leaves me to deal with?」
For the time being, the flow of the story is to defeat the former generals of the Empire who were reincarnated as the demonic underlings of the Demon Lord, collect items, and pave the way for the capital city of the Demon King’s Empire.
「Your Excellency! The enemy reinforcements are on their way! What should we do!?
「What the fuck is wrong with reinforcement system in this game! This is like, the fifth time across a single encounter! Get your fucking act to together!」
* Let’s go! I will show you the power and prestige of the President!!
* Retreat! There is no way for us to beat them now! Retreat!
*The sky…… The butterflies…… They are all so beautiful……
In the current situation where Rice-chan has been kidnapped by a purple mountain of muscle called the Demon Lord, my only companions are the low tier troops. And the constant choices popping up left and right are not helping either in this particular scenario……
「We are moving out! I will teach you sorry bastards not to underestimate the power of the President!!」
We are going to rescue Rice-chan, who is more intelligent than any other Piece of Junk could ever be!! After your President, my loyal Purgatory Corps!!
