【Kingdom Turmoil】 Shangri-La Frontier General 【Part.584】

521: Anonymous Pioneer

At this point, the only thing I can understand is that Saina-chan is cute as fuck.

522: Anonymous Pioneer

Is it impossible to meet Conquista Dolls on the Old Continent?

523: Anonymous Pioneer

Was ShanFro a dating sim all along?

524: Anonymous Pioneer

There's no way one camera can capture all of this.

525: Anonymous Pioneer

So this is the rumored Human-Powered Sword Saint!

526: Anonymous Pioneer

Conquista Dolls are New Continent only. Their headquarters is only on the New Continent, after all.

527: Anonymous Pioneer

Friendly reminder that ShanFro is a dating sim with no UI.

528: Anonymous Pioneer

Huh? Did Yotty disappear?

529: Anonymous Pioneer

!!?

530: Anonymous Pioneer

!?

531: Anonymous Pioneer

Something's coming!?

532: Anonymous Pioneer

That's a Decotora.

533: Anonymous Pioneer

What's with that glaring, sparkly truck?

534: Anonymous Pioneer

Wait, which one is the player again?

535: Anonymous Pioneer

A flock of Decotoras www

536: Anonymous Pioneer

To think I'd see a scene where a road pulverizes a building......

537: Anonymous Pioneer

The half-naked one with the weird head.

538: Anonymous Pioneer

He's jumping on top of the trucks like it's perfectly normal, but isn't he out of his mind?

539: Anonymous Pioneer

The one making weird movements and using a ton of weapons is the player.

540: Anonymous Pioneer

Which one is that?!

541: Anonymous Pioneer

No, that's both of them.

542: Anonymous Pioneer

Tanks probably shouldn't pick the same model as Saina-chan, they'll get run over by a Decotora and die.

543: Anonymous Pioneer

Man, I love Saina-chan...... That damn Tsuchinoko-san, hiding such an outrageous bombshell.

544: Anonymous Pioneer

Looks like the final battle.

545: Anonymous Pioneer

Tsuchinoko-san put on clothes!!

545: Anonymous Pioneer

Fake Tsuchinoko put on some kind of bone!

546: Anonymous Pioneer

How is there this much differentiation just using one player's equipment?

547: Anonymous Pioneer

I love how they're using the exact same weapon.

548: Anonymous Pioneer

That's an SF weapon too? Just how many types does he have?

549: Anonymous Pioneer

The blade deployed.

550: Anonymous Pioneer

Saina-chan and Elma-chan's singing is meshing together in a weird way, the BGM quality is way too high.

551: Anonymous Pioneer

It's nice how Elma-chan is slightly more expressive compared to Saina-chan......

552: Anonymous Pioneer

Wasn't that monster in the Siegwurm battle too?

553: Anonymous Pioneer

As a huge fan of trick weapons, I'm insanely curious about the details of that halberd.

554: Anonymous Pioneer

How can they fight on top of Decotoras running like a roller coaster......

555: Anonymous Pioneer

Exceed Charge!!

556: Anonymous Pioneer

He switched to fists.

557: Anonymous Pioneer

What was that perfectly efficient loop of completely useless movement just now?

558: Anonymous Pioneer

All I know is that movement looks like it demands a stupid amount of technique......

559: Anonymous Pioneer

This circular motion is probably a skill, right? Reeks of a must-have meta skill.

560: Anonymous Pioneer

Crystal Punch straight to the jaw!!!

561: Anonymous Pioneer

Uwa, critical hit to the jaw.

562: Anonymous Pioneer

Way too much information crammed into such a short timeeee

563: Anonymous Pioneer

Oh, nice catch.

564: Anonymous Pioneer

Routine fly ball.

565: Anonymous Pioneer

Is this a Battle King job? His weapons are way too diverse.

566: Anonymous Pioneer

A Decotora caught him. So close.

567: Anonymous Pioneer

Isn't there way too much plot-armor intervention? Is Orchestra the type where they won't lose until they win?

568: Anonymous Pioneer

Isn't it one of those where you can't win unless you meet a condition? There was a Unique where monsters spawned infinitely unless you solved a gimmick, after all.

569: Anonymous Pioneer

Doesn't that one strike normally wipe out all HP? Doesn't seem like there's that much difference between the copy and the original, so is Tsuchinoko-san surprisingly tough?

570: Anonymous Pioneer

Maybe the attack only hit that red slimy stuff?

571: Anonymous Pioneer

Even if I try to live-commentate in real time, another action happens while I'm typing, so I can't keep up.

572: Anonymous Pioneer

Do they seriously intend to let players clear this?

573: Anonymous Pioneer

Doing this full-time is brutal.

574: Anonymous Pioneer

Ah, he jumped off.

575: Anonymous Pioneer

Don't just jump from dozens of meters up like it's completely normal.

576: Anonymous Pioneer

Mid-air jumping is so nice. I play Tank but I wanna switch to a light warrior.

577: Anonymous Pioneer

Can you even sustain mid-air jumps like that? Can't you normally only do it for one or two steps?

578: Anonymous Pioneer

Saina-chan's on screen!

579: Anonymous Pioneer

Get out of the way, Tsuchinoko.

580: Anonymous Pioneer

Seeing Saina-chan talking to a man feels like my brain is getting destroyed.

581: Anonymous Pioneer

Tsuchinoko-san spits out pretty cheesy lines like it's nothing, huh.

582: Anonymous Pioneer

I wanna call it cringe, but the visual is way too hype.

583: Anonymous Pioneer

(So that bird head is treated as his default......)

584: Anonymous Pioneer

Stop, you aren't even acquaintances, so getting your brain destroyed is hilarious.

585: Anonymous Pioneer

Didn't this half-naked guy just casually say something outrageous?

586: Anonymous Pioneer

Did he say "destroy the world"?

587: Anonymous Pioneer

What does "concentrating power on a single point" mean?

588: Anonymous Pioneer

Haaah, Saina-chan is so cute.

589: Anonymous Pioneer

I have absolutely no idea what's going on.

590: Anonymous Pioneer

Basically, it means we get to hear Saina-chan sing again.

591: Anonymous Pioneer

The intro is the same, so it's the song from before?

592: Anonymous Pioneer

To be honest, I prefer rock, so I kinda wanna cheer for Elma-chan.

593: Anonymous Pioneer

The Decotora coaster showing up at the edge of the screen makes me laugh.

594: Anonymous Pioneer

Aren't the lyrics different? Second verse?

595: Anonymous Pioneer

Spouting a bunch of cool lines and actually looking badass despite being half-naked is just unfair. He's a suspicious creep, isn't he?

596: Anonymous Pioneer

Wait, is this like a song praising the player?

597: Anonymous Pioneer

Haaah, are you kidding me? Give me a sec, I'm gonna log into ShanFro and confess to a Conquista Doll.

598: Anonymous Pioneer

Original lyrics!?

599: Anonymous Pioneer

Singing while crying and smiling? That's total gachi-koi behavior, man.

600: Anonymous Pioneer

The fact that smile will never be directed at me makes me feel like retiring from ShanFro.

601: Anonymous Pioneer

I haven't even been able to get to the New Continent thooo!!!!

602: Anonymous Pioneer

I'm a girl, but I'm going bald from jealousy.

603: Anonymous Pioneer

I want a beautiful robot girl to sing just for me too, you know????

604: Anonymous Pioneer

An unbelievably massive building is!!

605: Anonymous Pioneer

It's not a bamboo shoot, you know!?

606: Anonymous Pioneer

Ahhh! Don't take the camera off Saina-chan!!

607: Anonymous Pioneer

Crazy, isn't this building about the size of the Tokyo Tower?

608: Anonymous Pioneer

Empire State Building?

609: Anonymous Pioneer

It's frustrating, but standing at the top of a building with the cracked night sky and moonlight at his back is so cool.

610: Anonymous Pioneer

His sense of balance is insane.

611: Anonymous Pioneer

I mean, what's he gonna do from here?

612: Anonymous Pioneer

Decotora Highway vs Skyscraper.

613: Anonymous Pioneer

Is he gonna snipe them or something?

614: Anonymous Pioneer

What's that? A sword?

615: Anonymous Pioneer

He pulled something out, a weapon maybe?

616: Anonymous Pioneer

Going for a counter?

617: Anonymous Pioneer

What's he gonna do?

618: Anonymous Pioneer

Hieee, it's so high.

619: Anonymous Pioneer

Don't pan down, it's rough for people with acrophobia.

620: Anonymous Pioneer

Agatleo?

621: Anonymous Pioneer

What's with that unsealing gimmick!!

622: Anonymous Pioneer

Agatleo!?

623: Anonymous Pioneer

A katana came out of the box!

624: Anonymous Pioneer

Eh, how do you even craft a gimmick like that?

625: Anonymous Pioneer

I mean, a katana right here?

626: Anonymous Pioneer

Based on Tsuchinoko-san's movements up till now, don't tell me...

627: Anonymous Pioneer

He went for it!!

628: Anonymous Pioneer

He passed on!?

629: Anonymous Pioneer

Are you serious, he jumped off!!

630: Anonymous Pioneer

What is an Agatleo?

631: Anonymous Pioneer

Is he seriously planning to slash it head-on!?

632: Anonymous Pioneer

I wish he wouldn't run down the wall like it's the most natural thing in the world.

633: Anonymous Pioneer

He's wall-running www

634: Anonymous Pioneer

So fast.

635: Anonymous Pioneer

He's fast enough that you lose sight of him even from a bird's-eye view!?

636: Anonymous Pioneer

Accelerating while falling is absolute madness.

637: Anonymous Pioneer

Too fast.

638: Anonymous Pioneer

He's gonna hit the ground and die.

639: Anonymous Pioneer

He changed his trajectory with a mid-air jump!

640: Anonymous Pioneer

Wall-running with a collapsing world in the background... The situation is way too handsome.

641: Anonymous Pioneer

The Decotoras are here!!

642: Anonymous Pioneer

A face came out!!

643: Anonymous Pioneer

A tiger!?

644: Anonymous Pioneer

What's with that lion!

645: Anonymous Pioneer

Pushed forward by a roar.

646: Anonymous Pioneer

What is that!?

647: Anonymous Pioneer

He's boosting with the wind!

648: Anonymous Pioneer

He's so fast I can't see anything.

649: Anonymous Pioneer

Oooooooooh!!!

650: Anonymous Pioneer

Ooooooooooooooooooooh

651: Anonymous Pioneer

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaah

652: Anonymous Pioneer

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah

653: Anonymous Pioneer

He slashed ittttttttttttttt

654: Anonymous Pioneer

Cut right in half with a single strike!!

655: Anonymous Pioneer

He woooonnnnnnnnn

656: Anonymous Pioneer

Well, of course he can solo-subjugate Unique Monsters like that.

Author's Afterword

As for Yotatron(Yotty)-kun, the finishing blow was the message: "You've gone so deep into being a 'direct-connection' creep that your avatar is literally radiating a stinky aura." (If you act too much like a dating-sim 'direct-connection' creep in ShanFro, you actually start emitting an aura that looks filthy.) (Since this was a joint collaboration between Ritsu-chan and Tsukuyo-san, the level of effort put into this feature is on par with the Bounty Hunters.)
