Either on the Clear Sky Conquest action

or your oath to guard that grave forever and ever!

On behalf of Vash, I'm putting you down!

Sky Clear!

Crescent Vorpal!

Sky Clear

Go to sleep already...

Wethermon the Tombguard!

You were really strong...

But I've seen enough of your attacks for a lifetime...

And your blade won't reach me ever again.

The ultimate strike has been solved.

Brilliant.

You have broken through my ultimate strike.

As "Clear Sky" transformed into my ultimate, "Sky Clear"...

So, again, do the words transform... to describe your talent.

"It is as clear as a cloudless sky."

The World Progresses, the Heroes Are Revealed

Wait, was that a stupid pun?

Sky clear = Clear as the sky

Er, that just slipped out.

Setsuna said that to me often, as well.

I say it again. Your talent is clear.

Well done, descendant of the first pioneers.

I thought he was totally insensate,

but he actually reacted to me...

What, it's not over yet?!

No.

Into the gap between moments spills a single wish

He's reached his limit.

Distant days, so blurred by tears they can't be seen

I carry the light of your love in my heart

My body... fails.

I will sleep.

I'll remember it for eternity

Setsuna...

I'll be with you soon.

Hear me, my love, so far away

I-Is it over?

Unique Scenario EX From the Living World, With Love in progress

Looks like we haven't met the clear conditions yet.

The cherry tree's dying?

The area's going back to normal, I guess?

Set-chan?

Arthur.

Sunraku.

Oikatzo.

You've done it, haven't you?

I can't thank you enough.

My wish...

No, the wish of the Setsuna of the long-distant past

has been granted at long last.

That's a weird way of putting it...

You're making it sound like you're not really Setsuna.

Set-chan?

You are Setsuna, aren't you?

Well, Arthur...

It's true that I am Setsuna.

But I'm not quite the Setsuna who died that day.

Setsuna's wish...

"If my dearest love becomes tied down by my death,

find a way to stop him."

I'm a remnant of her, produced by those feelings.

Like a manuscript, perfectly replicated, right down to the handwriting.

A remnant of the past, embodying the real Setsuna's wish from long ago?

Like a copy-paste of herself or something?

That explains the whole "Setsuna of Bygone Days," I guess...

I am a remnant of Setsuna.

I'm meant to disappear once my role is fulfilled.

Wait! Set-chan!

Don't be sad, Arthur.

This was always going to happen, once the world granted her wish.

You are pioneers,

the descendants of the Second Plan.

You exist to throw open this world.

If you wish to know of your roots... of the truth of this world...

Seek out "Bahamut."

Bahamut?

Never heard of it, Katzo?

It's basically a big fish that people treat like a dragon.

Yeah, I know what a freaking Bahamut is!

But what's it mean in the context of this game?

There's no monster in SLF called Bahamut, that I know of.

Set-chan, could you explain—

You should find that answer on your own.

That's what it means to throw open the future, after all.

Arthur.

Let me speak to you now, not as Setsuna,

but as myself.

Thank you for always coming to see me.

I love you, Arthur.

Hey, likewise!

Pencilgon...

I'm not crying.

Setsuna's remnant has kept the promise of bygone days.

Wethermon the Tombguard has found eternal rest.

I didn't say anything yet.

Still, never knew you had a "tears" function built in...

What is this feeling? Is this... a soul?

That's the second time you've made that joke!

Okay, I'm seriously gonna murder you two!

You can't PK me after all I've been through!

Take this one for the team, Sunraku!

Knock it off!

Just walk on up and take it!

Get off of me, loser!

Go on, get 'im!

Unique Scenario EX From the Living World, With Love cleared

Knock it off!

No! Go! You go!

We really managed to finish it.

Thanks for indulging me on this, you guys.

Hey, we just did it 'cause we wanted to.

Right?

The first dispatch of a unique monster since Shangri-La Frontier started...

I can't wait to see what kind of loot we've got waiting for us!

Yeah, yeah!

Okay, let's treat ourselves to a loot review!

This is an announcement to all players of Shangri-La Frontier.

We have just confirmed that the unique monster,

Wethermon the Tombguard, has been dispatched.

The players responsible for dispatching it

are Sunraku,

Oikatzo,

and Arthur Pencilgon.

Furthermore, with the dispatch of this unique monster,

the world story of Shangri-La Frontier has progressed.

World... story?

Progress: 11%

Royal Library, 2nd Collection

World Story Shangri-La Frontier has progressed.

Hey! Big news!

Clan: "The Library" SLF game lore specialist clan

Anyone got the professor's IRL contact info?

I'm pretty sure his wife is in Schwarz Vulf.

Ask her to fetch him!

You know the professor.

The minute he hears a unique monster's been beaten,

he'll be here on the double.

I just hope his wife's logged in.

But what's the "world story" they mentioned in the GM announcement?

Yeah, never heard that term before...

It's safe to assume it's different from the regular story, right?

If the regular story usually involves working with NPCs to explore the world,

the "world story" must mean the world itself proceeding to a new stage, right?

If that's the case, we could have some big changes in store!

You think we should ask Schwarz Vulf to sniff around for us?

I think we should look into Wethermon the Tombguard first.

I'm for that!

That's a unique monster that's been totally unsubstantiated until now!

Siegwurm, Lycagon, Ctarnidd, the Orchestra, and now Wethermon...

To think we'd get to fill in an unknown Colossus after all this time...

That leaves just two unknowns left.

Okay, let's get in contact with the players who took out Wethermon the Tombguard...

Hey, the professor's wife says she'll wake him up and get him logged on!

Yes!

I feel bad that he had to be woken up...

Sunraku. Oikatzo. Arthur Pencilgon.

Good grief.

To think another set of players would beat a unique monster before us...

Schwarz Vulf Leader Psyger-100

And we call ourselves a top clan?

Arthur Pencilgon of the Ashura Kai, huh?

I thought it was odd that we didn't see her during the raid.

I never dreamed she'd be off slaying a unique monster.

Disgusting.

She funneled info on Ashura Kai to us through a mediator

while she went after the unique monster...

She completely used us!

She might be even more troublesome than Orcelott, who got away.

The other two aren't part of Ashura Kai, are they?

I've never heard of this "Oikatzo" person,

but this player, Sunraku...

I believe he's the one who tangled with Lycagon.

Pencilgon-san and Hizutome-kun... are they close?

What should we do, Chief?

We've still got the journey to the new land coming up...

We'll still be heading to the new land.

But I and a few others will remain here.

75: Alinoiyu (Beginner) I have a question for our esteemed elders. I was picking up equipment in Secondale when I ran into this player. He had the cutest talking bunny with him. How can I befriend this monster?

A beginner last seen in Thirdrema

did the unthinkable and beat a unique monster?

I'm very interested in you all of a sudden, Sunraku-kun!

I've gotta find a way to get in contact with these guys!

Maybe we can even do some laundering negotiations!

The chief seems to be enjoying this.

I was so sure she'd be upset.

Huh? Psyger-0's missing.

What happened there?

Said something about helping a friend in trouble.

A friend?

Oh...

I do remember her saying she managed to friend a guy she liked...

Well, I should probably support that.

Thought we'd run into you here.

Oh, is this the guy?

Y-Y-You people...

What was the name again? Orcelott the Failhard?

Wow, what a wussy title.

Who's he think he is, Wethermon?

Oh, please! My loser little bro doesn't need a fancy nickname like that.

He has no concept of the noble art of PKing.

He's an absolute hack with delusions of grandeur.

I knew it...

You're the one who leaked the location of our base!

Well, you reap what you sow.

You'd turned chicken, all fat and comfortable and afraid of losing it all...

So I gave you a punch to the gut to make you cough up the goods.

That's all.

Whoa!

The PK-talking lady is scary!

You think you know it all, huh?!

I bet you're tired out from that Wethermon fight, huh?!

We're gonna murder you and take all the loot you scored!

See? This is your big problem.

I'm always telling you to focus on the big picture,

but you can't take your eyes off immediate gains.

An anti-PK measure: the distress signal.

When attacked by a PKer, you can send a call for aid to your friends.

Orcelott-san!

That's—

And if one of those friends has the "Friend Warp" skill...

Friend Warp

You can summon them right to the spot!

You again, Psyger-0?!

Sorry to be a big ol' bother, Psyger-0-san.

It's nothing.

Thank you so much for calling me!

The remnants of the Ashura Kai...

If you intend to run away, as you've done once already...

I'll gladly let you go.

Will you accept?

You guys had better start showing me respect...

You stupid pieces of shit!

50 Seconds Later

D-Damn it...

Everything I built...

destroyed by you people...

You can't expect an MMO to always go the way you want.

You'd be better off sticking to offline single-player.

Personally, I recommend Faeria Chronicle Online!

Jeez! What kind of monster are you?!

Hey, look at all these rare items the Ashura Kai was packing!

Like they were trying to skip town with the goods.

I didn't think you'd show up so quickly!

Thanks so much, Psyger-0-san!

R-Really, i-it was... nothing.

More importantly...

Congratulations... on dispatching that unique monster!

Hey, thanks.

That's right. I guess that announcement got the word out everywhere...

It's gonna be even harder to walk around in public.

But what now?

After I called her out like this, I can't just say, "Thanks a bunch, you can go now."

Wh-What's going on? He's staring at me so intently...

Squee!

Hey, right, Psyger-0-chan.

You mind if I ask...

While you're here, would you mind killing me?

In exchange, how about all the items I've got,

including two Rebirth Tearjewels

and all the rare items the Ashura Kai was packing?

Hey, you sure about this?

Pretty sure the PKK penalty is having all your items confiscated

and a big fine you gotta pay in proportion to your crimes, right?

Knowing Pencilgon, that'll probably be a pretty hefty fee.

I'd be an even bigger chicken than my little bro if I never took any risks.

I'm pretty sick of PKing, anyway,

and this seemed like a good time to wipe my slate clean.

Although... for now, I'm still a player killer.

I'm not about to offer my head up on a silver platter.

Psyger-0-chan...

Rather, Attack Master, holder of unparalleled firepower...

I've always wanted to go all-out against you!

Very well. I'll take you on.

Satanael, reversal...

Emperor of Evil Satan

Satan!

The oft-spoken-of unique weapon of the Attack Master,

Antinomy.

Antinomy God and Devil Greatsword

And you're even showing off the reversal...

How generous of you.

My siste—

Our chief told me about you.

You'll run at the drop of a hat, so the moment I see you,

I should slay you swiftly, with one decisive hit.

That's how people talk about cockroaches.

Huh?!

You guys are dead for sure.

I didn't even say anything yet!

Karmic Embrace

Lightning Grace

Catastrophe

Highest Strength

Enchant Vermillion

If I'm fighting the Giant Killer,

I'm giving it everything I have!

In this corner, Psyger-0 just stacked a bunch of scary-looking buffs

I don't know anything about!

Total demon king vibes.

Sup upon blood, tear away flesh.

Sink your teeth into death and reject life...

Thou art the butcher.

Serial Killer

Silhouette's Sneer

Enchant Vorpal

Let your song ring out from atop a mountain of corpses!

And in this corner, things are looking pretty grody!

Sheesh, her weapon's creeping me out.

Now, shall we begin?

Yes, let us...

Battle!

And they're off! It's a clash between serious buff stacks!

How can you have so much energy after that huge fight?

Massacre Bite

Massacre Bite!

Got you now!

My sword is stuck?!

Holy crap! Was that a direct hit?!

That was a close one...

I almost got myself cleaved in half.

After all that with Set-chan...

I've gotta put my whole heart into this!

In that case, just for you...

Light and darkness, opposites in constant conflict

deny their mutual rejection

and weave together a severed destiny...

My body is bathed in light

and cloaked in darkness.

Let disorder devour this world!

SLF Mini

SLF Theater!

News: It's Morning, Indeed!

Mini!

SLF Theater

Well, good morning, all!

I'm the peerless vorpal bunny of Rabituza, Emul!

I'm going to tell you about all the news I've seen and heard!

Horror! Undulating White Cloth Ghost!!

A ghost story so early in the morning?!

The Thirdrema urban legend, the White Cloth Ghost, has been sighted!

It was seen jumping about on the rooftops, its body undulating all over!

What a terrifying story!

It's so awful that we don't know what it could be!

But there was a vorpal bunny who spotted the White Cloth Ghost!

I got his story!

Horror! Undulating White Cloth Ghost!!

Oh, that was the thing I sold to that bird-man.

So I guess it had to be that bird-man...

Which means you had to be there with him, right, Sis?

Oh? Well, I'd bet the bubbling part would've been because

the bird-man was jumping and you were under the cloth panicking—

There's no need to tell them all that!

We are experiencing technical difficulties

Hey! Sis, you hit me in the head!

Besides, I wasn't panicking!

Sunraku-san just said "It would be faster to run along the rooftops"

and then he did a somersault, so I was just trying to get my balance!

So it was you, Sis!

Vorpal Sister Punch! Indeed!

We had a little bit of white noise there.

The rabbit we spoke to is no longer fit to be shown.

How come?!

Now, our next news item!

The Rabituza famed Vorpal Carrot Bumper Crop

Th-This is incredible!

We have a vorpal carrot bumper crop!

This is absolutely fabulous!

We have Sunraku-san on the scene right now!

We'll put you right through to him!

Sunraku-san! Sunraku-san!

How are things going over there?

Are the carrots looking wonderful?!

This is Sunraku on the scene.

Wh-What's going on over there?!

What? What was that?

What's going on over there?!

Well, as it happens, this Giga Armored Death Carrot-Eater showed up...

Giga Armored Death Carrot-Eater?!

A Giga Armored Death Carrot-Eater is attacking the carrot patch!

M-My carrots!

What's happening to my carrots?!

What's that?!

My carrots!

I don't give a crap!

I'm fighting the damn Giga Armored Death Carrot-Eater right now!

Sounds like a Mongolian Death Worm to me!

I'll split you down the back and make braised eel outta you!

I-I must take action!

My carrots...

I mean, the vorpal carrots must be protected for the sake of all Rabituzans!

I must rush to the scene at once!

That's all for today!

Let us even meet again tomorrow!

What even is a Giga Armored Death Carrot-Eater?!
