Chapter 931 Part 2

ShangriLa Frontier Chapter 502: One State of Estimated Emergency Part 2

Unlike the Meteor Strike, which is your typical and pretty run-of-the-mill Jump Kick attack, Pixie Phantom is an attack that is a bit more complicated and mystical. After activating the move, the Pixie Powder that is already on the field is going to earn a “special” property that seals everyone that is within it inside, making it unable for them to leave. Then from within the powder three additional clones of Twinkle Pixie are being created, which makes for a total of four fairies. And then it is just a matter of performing the actual attack, which is just a normal, but empowered, punch attack. …… But naturally, if you somehow found the way to disperse the Pixie Powder, then the attack would be rendered useless, since it relies mostly on the Pixie Powder’s special properties.

「Once you are trapped within the Pixie Powder it is almost impossible to avoid the Phantom Pixie. Plus, not to mention that while the Twinkle Pixie remains inside of the shroud, her own body is pretty much invincible. But in the end, it’s all powder reliant, so it should not be something that is absolutely fool-proof……」

「Alright! Stop! Stop it! Hold your horses right there, Uomi-san! It’s still Golden Time, you know!? Now please provide some easy to understand commentary, so that our viewers will be able to understand what it going on!」

「Ah, sorry about that. Force of habit, I guess…… But anyways, I would say that nothing is set in stone yet. As for right now, everything can happen during this match. At the current moment No Face may have the advantage, but I would not herald his victory just yet.」

If Twinkle Pixie retains the initiative she was having up until now, even her small frame and low HP would not be able to catch up to her and take the victory away from her grasp. However, in order for her to do that, it would require her to maintain the shroud of Pixie Powder to be as huge as possible at all times.

However, if for some reason the cloud of Pixie Dust was to disappear somehow, then the Cursed Prison’s super armor would have been more than enough to take that initiative from Twinkle Pixie and turn the tide of the battle around in an instant. However, it is also worth to bare in mind that once the effect of the “Prison Break” is going to pass, that super armor of Cursed Prison is going to be gone as well.

It was the realization of all of those facts that was bringing about this prolonged state of stalemate to the battlefield. And it is exactly because of that reason that the two players just continued to calmly circulate around one another, choosing to not do anything rather than risk it all on a single gamble. It could be said that it was the case of a serious mind game here, a powerful back and forth between the two powerful players whose intellect and intuitions were kicking into full swing here…… So one thing is for certain: if there was someone in here who could break the current status quo, it would have to be a third party, someone who was neither No Face nor Masked Hannya.

* * *

The moment both of us heard a particular sound, both Amelia Sullivan and I decided to take action. So we both activated our Super Finishing Moves at the same time.

「PRISON BREAK!」

「TWINKLE ☆ PHANTOM!!!」

I still have some more Pixie Powder that I can use here left in my body! So I was going to use those last reserves that I had in order to get this round in the bag, but then I saw something. Instead of going right after me, the crimson-glowing Cursed Prison took a step back, as if it was trying to leave the cloud of Pixie Dust and defend itself against it.

And it failed spectacularly!

God fucking damn it! I must have been too immersed in those mind games that we were having to keep track of the whole time! The gap between us should have been just right at the current moment…… But it was not! It was not good at all! Which also meant that staying here was not the best course of action that I could take!

「Galactor, you asshole…… You had to interrupt us at a time like that! You had to, you absolute dumb fuck!」

「Are you sure that this is the time to be distracted like that!? Don’t you dare looking away from me, you stupid bug!!」

「Gunoh!?」

Aiming right at the face!? What kind of asshole are you, to aim right at the face of a young woman!? Oh, that’s it! It’s on! I’m not going to forgive you for this insult!

However, the situation is simply not only me confronting “Prison Break”. There is also the presence of the third party here. And once that third party makes an appearance, it will be impossible for me to just keep my focus purely on Amelia Sullivan. So it would be ideal to settle the matter before our intruder finds its way here.

And it was precisely at this moment that this third party decided to make an appearance here. And as it turned out, it was not exactly the Valkyrie, but rather yet another of her scrap metal companions.

「…… You have to be shitting me! And now we have Colonel after us as well!?」

Another one of the Target Enemies code named “Colonel”. And just like its military-like name might have suggested, its purpose and abilities were pretty simple.

Once Colonel is on the field, it raises the morale and AI of the surrounding minions created by the Mechanitian and gives them all sorts of boosts to battle power and survivability. On his own he is not that much of a threat, but when surrounded with his companions he is no longer a small fry but a powerful enemy that you must watch out for.

「Another nuisance, huh……!?」

This thing can make even ordinary home appliances and vehicles into a serious threat. Not to mention that if you combine it all with the already powerful Valkyries, the situation is not going to look all that good for us. That is why for now the best and the wisest course of action would be to take a step back and go into hiding, think about our options carefully.

The worst possible scenario here is to allow the group under Colonel’s control to grow in power over time. That’s where they will get all of their damage from. And it would be ideal to take the Valkyrie out of the picture, possibly before she becomes the unstoppable force.

Here in this moment there are two options that are presented to me: one is to simply run away from here. Get the hell out of here and wait until the effects of the “Prison Break” wear off and Cursed Prison becomes vulnerable.

However, the overall characteristics of a Colonel are not going to make escaping from here that easy to begin with. And if I am going to be forced to stay here and wait to see how the situation develops…… That’s not good. That’s not good at all.

「Don’t just stand there, you stupid Hannya bastard! Do something!!!」

「And what do you think I can do!? I guess we’ll just have to settle this with our remaining characters!」

It’s time to shorten the distance and go for a cross counter! And if my arms won’t be able to reach, then maybe the kicks will do!

「Guh!?」

「Goh!?」

Not good, not good, I’m completely losing here when it comes to the actual output! I was sure that I managed to land a nice blow on my opponent, but the same could be said for me, and just as I saw, my HP was starting to plummet to about thirty percent really fast.

I knew it! Going for a full frontal collision with Prison Break was a mistake here! I shouldn’t have done that! …… But in that case!

「Secret TQC…… EVIL STYLE!!!」

When there is no certain future left for you, the only thing that you can do is to give it your very best until you die! UUUOOOHHH!! Like I’m going to make it easier for you! Here I go, Mechanitian! And everyone else! Think you can bring me down so easily!? Let’s see you try!!!
