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 fight against Wethermon has been a brutal battle of attrition. Entering the final phase of the boss fight, Pencilgon’s team is battered, but not broken. While Sunraku goes one-on-one with Wethermon, Pencilgon and OiKatzo team up against Wethermon’s mecha-steed. Most of Pencilgon’s items have been depleted so the prudent course of action would be to play it safe and try to survive the theorized ten minute phase. However, Sunraku is built different and decides to challenge Wethermon head on!
