ShangriLa Frontier Chapter 509: Tension Goes Sky High Part 2
Oh, what the heck!? What a stroke of luck! With about thirty percent of my HP left, I can keep on going for even ten more rounds if need be! Without a single problem!
「Hey! Hiding like a rat is not very Galactic of you, wouldn’t you agree!? So come on out so that I can flatten you like a pancake!」
「Who’s going to flatten who like what!?」
Tsk, stupid, retarded muscle-brained bastard! A surprise attack from the second floor, huh? It’s not the best thing to defend against, but I can certainly live with it! Here goes! Another Shaco Punch Uppercut!
「Goh, guh, nuoorah!?」
With just the strength of my left arm, I was able to catch the sheer weight of Xenoselgus that was coming from up above and put it to a stop. Needless to say, unable to withstand the sheer weight of it, the armor platings around my left arm began to crumble and bend unnaturally, but overall I can say that this uppercut managed to do its job just fine.
「Guh, fuoooh……!?」
「Sorry to disappoint you, but earlier I just did not feel like putting all of my strength into that punch. …… But this right now is the fully powered swing.」
I do a quick backstep, and at the same time I turn the right side of my body and put my left side in front. Then I ready my right hand as if I was pulling a bow string and then…… Better grit those teeth of yours if you don’t wanna lose them!
「Die, you stupid bastard!」
「Guuuooohhh!?」
God damn it! Stupid bastard guarded at the last possible moment! I wonder: are all Professional Gamers doing martial arts!? Or maybe it’s just the shtick of Silvia Goldberg and her associates?
「Cheap tricks like that won’t work on me……!」
「Yeah, am I supposed to be impressed or what, you Heavyweight alien……!? And what the hell is that, sweat?」
「No, I do not expect you to be. And I really couldn’t care less…… And no, it’s not sweat. It’s oil.」
Oil……? Ah, no way! Please don’t tell me that this muscular bastard has the ability to turn its sweat into oil!? In that case, I might actually be turned into a deep fried doughnut before I can even do anything about it!
「Now, I’m going to steam you really good!」
PACHIN! Xenoselgus’s tough fingers started to ring for some inexplicable reason. The tips of its fingers all started to ring in unison, sparks beginning to fly from them and the air starting to fluctuate as if some kind of heat was going on there…… And then after it let out a sigh that might have actually been a starting spark, there were long tongues of flames that erupted from its fingertips!
「Uuuooohhh!!!」
The place where I jumped to get away from the sea of flames was the emergency exit stairway that just happened to be right above me! What a stroke of luck! What convenience! Now, it’s time for the change of stage! Going upstairs, now!
Whoa there, it seems that Valkyrie is also taking a stroll on the second floor! Getting in her way would have been really bad here…… Or maybe I can make this work? Because the aggro ratio works in my favor? Yeah.
「Ubuoph!?」
Climbing up the stairs in a hurry, I can hear the roar of an explosion just behind me. So that’s it when it comes to my way down. That route is permanently cut off for now.
Going up, going up, going up……
「Well fuck me, this is way harder than you might think it is!」
Time to switch to the elevator. And one just so conveniently happened to arrive at the floor where I am currently at. Was it coming down from the top? Or maybe climbing from the bottom?
「…………」
「…… Hello there!」
「Goodbye! Forever!」
Shaco Punch! Shaco Punch! Normal Punch! Just punch! Reset! Reset! Shaco Punch!
「What kind of a monster uses the goods that the civilization provides!? Go back to hell where you crawled out of and stay there!」
「Wait…… You fucking assholeeeeee……!!!」
Scared like all hell by the sight I saw right in front of me I pressed the button that closed the door to the elevator and sent it down. Oh shit, I did not even think that the Villain would want to use the elevator to go up like that……
CRUSH! SHRED! GI, GIGIGIGIGIGIGI……!?
Whoa there! Do my ears deceive me!? Or was the Villain perhaps shredding through the elevator’s roof and climbing up its shaft just like that!?
「Kuh……」
Not yet, not high enough. Carry on! I know that it must be hard, but carry me all the way to the rooftop of this building! Fight on, my poor legs!
…
………
……………
With the raid started by the Machine Minions, the thing that was happening right now at the Hero’s Villa was similar to a regular war. Also, taking a glance at the Chaos City from the top of the building one could see that the entire city was now engulfed in dark smoke and bright flames.
「Good thing that something like Impact Conversion exists in this game. Otherwise things would not look all too good.」
「I know what you want to say with a name like that, but did you have to put it that way? It’s somewhat embarrassing to say it out loud like that!」
Yeah, it might have been a little bit embarrassing, but only because it is a name that I have personally come up with on the spot just now…… But that’s not actually the main reason why we are here, so let’s just omit that issue for the time being.
「It would be that much better to have our decisive battle under the light of the night sky, wouldn’t you agree?」
With the smoke coming from all the destruction and ruin around the city you actually cannot see the sky all that clearly, but that’s not what’s important here right now Besides…… The wind carries with itself dust, rubble and embers from down below, so at the very least it must be a spectacular sight for the audience that is watching.
「You know what? At the current moment both you and I are the main characters here. Not some sort of extra or a background for trash mobs to do as they please. I just sort of regret that we won’t have some sort of epic script written for us for this moment, because it is totally epic.」
「Isn’t that situation reminding you of something, Real Life Cursed Prison?」
The amount of heat radiating around here is more than enough to start melting the construction of the rooftop. And soon enough, after burning through the concrete and steel support grids, Valkyrie emerges onto the rooftop, coming straight from the lower levels of the building. Wow, for her to do that kind of thing, does that mean that she cannot feel it? Or suffer damage from all that molten concrete?
With that, the actors are all gathered in one place. Also, it seems that the stage on which we are going to be acting is also “good” good. …… Now the only thing that is needed here for this thing to work out is the right set of “coordinates”.
「Looking at the heavens like that, don’t you feel like trying to get closer and closer to the sun? But wouldn’t that actually spell your doom, getting too close to it? But you see, I am different! I will be that kind of monarch who’s going to show you that you can get closer to the sun without actually melting your wings! I’ll make it happen!」
「Yeah, even with your wings still intact, you can get shot down from the sky! And I am going to prove it to you!」
This is it! The waves of tension are at their absolute peak right about now! This is like watching the whole world from the highest point that there could possibly be! However, wouldn’t that also mean that once you manage to get so high, the only way for you to go is all the way back towards the bottom––––––?
