Chapter 85: ShangriLa Frontier ~ Shitty Games Hunter Challenges Godly Game ~ Chapter 85
\nLong story short, this Dullahan lost its sanity and sense of self even before losing its head? But was that supposed to be unique, or what? Every other Dullahan in here had also lost its head, so isn’t that kind of generic description? Oh well, at least the sword looks good. Maybe it will fetch a good price.
Now, when I was about to put the sword into my inventory, Break stopped me from doing that. What, are you interested in that? Compared to other weapons, this one looks like a bunch of rust and blood-covered scrap.
「Here, lend me this for a second, will ya?」
「Hmm? Sure thing, here.」
I hand over the Dullahan blade to Break, and she swings the blade a couple of times, turns it in her small paws and looks at it closely.
「I knew it, this sword is dead as well. If you let me hold on to it, I can bring it back to its original glory back at my workshop.」
「Hee.」
Not that I was going to use it or anything, but my gamer mind was telling me that if its form could be changed into something better then that’s what you needed to do. Right, let’s do just that! Having decided on that, we commenced the exploration of the area once more.
「But I gotta say, this dungeon is relatively straightforward when compared to other one’s we’ve been to so far.」
「All we’ve been doing so far in here is to go straight.」
This map wasn’t all that broad when it came to the sheer size of it, but rather than branching paths it consisted of bigger and smaller cliffs that you needed to traverse in order to go forward. And while I get the idea that constant onslaught of undead and “Curse” status effects would make this place a whole lot harder…… For me, a human air-purifier, this whole area was like a walk through the park.
「Say, we’ve been walking for quite a while now……」
「But we don’t seem to be getting anywhere. It’s getting kind of annoying.」
「But at least we don’t have to waste any Holy Water, so that’s a plus, hmm?」
I don’t know how much Holy Water we would have to waste if we were to do this area normally, but maybe that’s a good thing…… That being said, we were a birdman carrying two bunnies on his back, so for a valley filled with madness, decay and the undead it was surprisingly fitting of an image, huh?
I know that it was absurd, but precisely because of this fantasy setting this situation could receive a passing grade, so just rolling with it for now was fine…… After all, could you experience something like that in real life? I doubt it.
「Umu…… I guess Godly games can get surprisingly deep at times and deliver you experiences you wouldn’t otherwise hope to experience……」
