ăThat being said, I do believe that youâve told me something really interesting.ă
This was starting to become quite a nuisance, especially since I had no real obligation to respond to Rustâs requests.
However, I was lacking Pencilgtonâs Speech skills to effectively talk myself out of this mess without complicating matters even further.
I could always try to bust myself out with PK, but I donât want to turn to such drastic measures in this game. Not because of the penalties, for they are rather lenient, but since the people in this game are rather good in nature, so if possible I would like for my alignment to remain good as well.
This wasnât a shitty game and even if playing it some more was certainly a tempting offer, I wanted to devote myself to ShanFro still. At least for the current moment. \nJust as I was thinking of a way out of this messy situation, it was all blown away by the next nuclear bomb that Rust dropped on me seemingly out of nowhere.
ăMaybe now would be a good time to give Nephilim Hollow a rest and try something different insteadâŚâŚ Hey, can you tell me more about mechas in ShanFro?ă
Now I wish that Pencilgton was actually here right here right now. At this rate all the information about robots in ShanFro was about to be exposed!
ăIn return, I might be able to tell you something about the Unique Monster âKutanid of the Abyssâ and its questline, what do you say?ă
Seven unique Jokers of ShangriLa Frontier. One of them was out of the picture, only six remained.
I was the one who was holding that missing Joker, but all of a sudden another one appeared right in front of me. \năâŚâŚ So, how did it come to this?ă
The very next day, I was in the area known as âGround Zeroâ.
The area itself was the place in which the very first Nephilim fell from the sky. Fiddlerâs Club was currently right in the middle of it.
No, even though I knew the reason, I was still having a rather hard time to believe it.
ââââ I want you to fight me one more time tomorrow. Thatâs what Rust said.
If you win, Iâll tell you everything I know about the Unique Monster from ShanFro.
\năUoooaaahâŚâŚ!?ă
There was another shot. This one hit right in the landing components on my legs, making me unable to land on the ground, sentencing me to hover in mid-air from now on.
But no matter where I tried to hide, the bullets would always reach me. And I was almost one hundred percent sure that the shots came somewhere from behind the desolated buildings, flying from the angles I wouldnât be able to notice or perceive.
ăT, that bastardâŚâŚ She wonât make it easy for me, will she!?ă
Then I saw it. A long-distance type of frame equipped with a heavy sniper rifle built in almost exactly the same way as my late Kingfisher, it came out from somewhere in between the buildings in the distance. Then I could feel Fiddlerâs Club coming apart as a barrage of heavy sniper bullets tore through its bodyâŚâŚ Oh, like hell Iâm going to let you beat me in that way!
I swear, I could hear Rust laughing from somewhere far away in the distance in a really annoying way
