Second-year high school student Rakuro Hizutome loves nothing more than finding so-called “trash games” and beating the crap out of them. When he decides to change things up by playing a new, “god-tier” VR game known as Shangri-La Frontier (a.k.a. SLF), he does what he does best: min-maxes, skips the prologue, and jumps straight into action! Rakuro may be a seasoned gamer, but a meeting with an old rival will change the fate of every SLF player forever.Clad in nothing but shorts and a bird mask, Rakuro (player name: Sunraku) launches into the world of SLF. Things are going well at first as he takes down a goblin, a bunny, and even a python. But then Sunraku comes up against a huge, hard-hitting wolf known as Lycagon the Nightslayer. Will Sunraku’s years of “trash game” experience be enough, or is he about to suffer a rude awakening just a few hours into his SLF adventure?
The GGC has come to an end and as soon as Sunraku returns home, he wastes no time jumping back into SLF. Only a few days remain in the unique Ctarnidd quest and Sunraku’s party must defeat the four blockers to have a chance at the colossal boss. Despite going solo most of the time, Sunraku’s ragtag party of acquaintances and npcs work surprisingly well fighting together against the blockers. However, one member of the party has been missing all the action. Rei hasn’t logged in for quite some time and it may have something to do with her furious sister!
