ShangriLa Frontier Chapter 446: Dragon, Oh Dragon! PART 23 Part 1

「Ohhh! I knew it! Watching a Monster Vs Monster type of battle sure is the best! Especially when there are two dragons duking it out between one another!」
「But more importantly, Sanraku. It seems that the members of your family have also become caught up in it.」
「M-My dear Brother!」
「Puh, pfff, pufffkukukuh…… Wait, please, no more…… I can’t possibly take any more of this……!」
「Uwah, now I’m starting to feel all bad for laughing like that at Mold before. I beg your forgiveness from the bottom of my heart.」
「…… Umm, It also looks like that Akitsu Akane-san and company are coming down towards the ground as well.」
I mean, well, it should be okay. Probably. Akitsu Akane should have a build that is pretty similar to mine, with the exception that he used to put vast majority of his skill points into Magic instead of Luck. So he should have a skill such as “Hermes Boots” or something really similar in nature to it. And even if he did not have anything like that, then Rsut is still there. So she should be able to catch him no problem.
「Confirmation: Individual named Rust as well as individual named Akitsu Akane has been secured without any major issues.」
Alright, so for the time being one problem is over with. Now the question is: are they going to remain safe while being where they currently are?
Because looking up, the huge lump of both Black and Gold was falling to the ground right behind them at an alarming speed, most probably about to fall in the same spot where the two managed to land safely.
Black bites into Gold’s throat, and Gold turns his arm around Black’s neck and falls straight down to the ground. Unfortunately none of them wanted to let go of the other one, so they created a huge mass of flesh and scales that would not come apart, no matter what.
And then,
「Uwah, talk about a nasty sound. 」
「It was really loud and unpleasant, but……」
「It actually sounded like a mixture of a few different sounds. Like THUD! and BLAM! And WHAM! And CRUSH! …… At least that’s the feeling I’m getting from it.」
Honestly, the thing that first came to my mind was a chicken race but with no way for the chickens to actually come to a halt. However, while it was true that the Noirling and Siegwum ball hit the ground at full speed there, they also did it with so much force that they actually bounced off the ground and went right back in the air, only to crush to the ground for the second and final time. Needless to say, we were watching this whoel spectacle from start to finish, but this is a game. You can watch for some time, but you cannot be just the spectator forever.
「Oi, Mastermind-san? What would be our next course of action here?」
「From now on I assumed that it would mostly be ad-lib progression, but let’s just pretend that we have a script ready and we actually know what we are doing! Even though we do not! The time for talk is over! Now it’s the time for action! So let’s go and let’s beat the everlasting shit out of Siegwurm!」
「Ahh, I see. Actually, that plan is pretty straightforward and easy to understand. I like it.」
「I also believe that the time is just right for Kyogoku-chan to finally make her move…… Hmm, yes, nothing beats some good old individual scheming and movements in the shadows! As for me, I’ll go and see if I can rain down on the parade of those Anti-Noirlind chumps, while Katsu is going to get involved with that one person and bully Siegwurm together with them…… Yes, that sounds like a plan that everyone can get behind.」
「And me? What about me?」
「Don’t try to do anything stupid. You’re in that Dull Mode for now, so that’s more than enough on your part.」
「Is that supposed to be some new and refreshing way to tell someone to eat shit and die, basically……?」
I would very much like to get rid of that R.I.P buff if I could help it …… No, but the stamina gauge and the hunger gauge being fixed at the ten percent of their original value is a painful thing to be had, indeed…… Even if I continue to stay still here, I am not sure if I won’t die because of some stupid, inexplicable reason……
「Besides, don’t you think it’s better for you to die here rather than inside of Siegwurm’s gravitational sphere……?」
「Because my death won’t be met with any kind of event-specific penalties?」
「But I assume that such a lame way to die is not nearly enough to satisfy you, isn’t that right? Surely it must be extremely frustrating? Want me to help you out with that? It’s better than nothing.」
「Huh? And how do you want to do that? Did you bring a guillotine with you here or something?」
If you really brought one here with yourself, then by all means, all the power to you. But wait…… Why would you even bring a guillotine with you onto the battlefield in the first place? What is even the…… You know what? Nevermind. I don’t think I even want to know the answer to that question.
Hmm…… Hmm, hmm…… Hmm, hmm, hmm……––––––
Alright then.
「I-I’m saved…… Thank God, I’m saved…… for a moment I thought I might have really be done for……」
「…… For a moment out there I felt really sick…… good thing that I did not throw up by accident……」
「Oh? Oooh, won’t you look at that! Perfect timing! Say Rust, you don’t think that you could take me up there into the sky for a little bit, do you?」
「………… Huh?」
Hey now! Hey now! I realize that this is a really pain in the ass request, but you don’t have to sound so disappointed about it, alright? And besides, you’d better make sure that you are going to go high enough in the air so that the fall is going to kill me for sure, alright? Otherwise we might have one hell of a problem……
「…… Right. So, where exactly do you want me to drop you? Any particular location in mind?」
「I thought about dropping where Siegwurm currently is, but if I were to rush in there now without any preparations done I would just take a penalty over nothing. So, based on that, drop me somewhere around the White Dragon. That’s the safest bet right now.
「Okay. There we go! Fly!」
Hey! Don’t throw me so suddenly like that! At least give me some sort of advanced warning or anything like that!
Right about now I am falling head-first towards the ground. But what I am aiming here at is to hit the White Dragon while I free fall. It will be a hard trick to pull off, but something that I must succeed at……
「Even though my Stamina is in shambles like that, I can still make a step forward like that! Easy!!!」
