Chapter 34

A. I answered off the cuff, so there's a possibility that the settings might change, but we'll go with this for the most part.

Q. What was the intention behind overlapping Sylphie's and Sunraku's play styles?

A. Due to the situation of challenging a higher compatibility, I humbly ask for your understanding.

Q. What is the position of slimes?

A. Common slimes are decomposers, ingesting and digesting their targets on the spot. They don't drop anything when defeated and don't melt clothes. Since they lack intelligence, they can't be tamed. They are essentially part of the background, but occasionally NPCs might request you to collect them. This is for common slimes.

Q. What measures are in place for people who seek "encounters" in the VR world?

A. If you keep trying to hook up with people, you'll be passively given an aura that subtly exudes "physiological disgust." For more details, refer to the logs, or more specifically, [──censored──]. While people with such intentions exist in any hobby, it's impossible to eliminate them. However, if you keep targeting beginners, you'll be PKed. In Fastia, they repeatedly engage in mutual cannibalism and suicide, so they are far from being mere weaklings.

Q. I'd like to know the path that a regular person would take when playing Shangfuru and the path that the recently reappeared beginner party took, if it's not mentioned in the text.

A. Generally, in the early stages, you base yourself in Third Rema and explore all the branching areas to choose a feasible route. If you stumble in the next area, you return to Third Rema... so basically, most of the time, you're in Third Rema. The route taken by the three middle school students in real life goes through the vast holy land of Kiyu So. Here, they team up with Aki Tsutsu and encounter Sieg Vurm, which is pretty intense. After returning to Third Rema and changing their route, they end up forming a party with Sylphie, marking the beginning of their boost.

Q. How many more scorpion-type monsters will be added in the future?

A. There are no plans to add more at the moment, but future Koyona might not guarantee that. However, scorpions in the Shangfuru world are not limited to the hard ancient scorpion-derived monsters; there are also scorpion-type monsters in the desert inhabited by insectoids. They are so weak that they don't come out due to fear of刻伤 (injury).

Q. Are there any original scorpion species in the deep sea?

A. No, they are no longer there. The origin species left behind by the [──censored──] phenomenon have gradually gone extinct. The deep sea is not a lenient world that would overlook weak shrimp-like creatures.

Q. Does Ruka have any favorite tokusatsu shows besides Actorman?

A. "Dismantle Girl Birb Reika" (a legendary work where the final boss was defeated by blowing up the base) and "Cooking Squadron Cook Five" (where the enemies are the Instant Empire, and the final boss, the Cup Noodle Emperor, is extremely strong).

Q. Are there any acquaintances of Yomu's mother among Shangfuru players, or is it only Yomu's father's acquaintances?

A. While not direct acquaintances, Yomu's mother has connections through the university where Kyoshu works. Depending on the route, the protagonist might end up attending the same university... who knows?

Q. It seems that Sunraku's home is not in Tokyo. Are the homes of Saeiga, Pencilgon, and Kyouko also in the Kanto region?

A. The characters' places of origin don't have any deep meaning; they are just randomly assigned. To be honest, they are based on the author's hometown. Kyouko is from a prestigious samurai residence in Kyoto, the Saeiga and Yomu families are relatively close, and the Tsuchi family (Kyouko's real family) is in a different school district but within the city.

Q. Are Pencilgon and 100 also alumni of Sunraku's high school?

A. Pencil and Saeiga's older sister attended the same high school and university. They were only classmates in high school, but they shared a dorm room in university, leading to a blossoming relationship (from a third-person perspective). In reality, they were a carnivorous duo.

Q. I'm curious about the detailed settings of the Fusion Body of the Deep Sea Trio that you mentioned in a previous comment or at the end of a chapter!

A. "Atlantix Repnorka" - a "trinity"

The base form is the parasitic type of Atlantix Repnorka, which possessed various abilities by consuming various monsters from birth. After consuming the Slain Given Carrion and the Arkorium Hermit, its abilities were integrated, resulting in the birth of an ultra-dangerous entity capable of generating semi-spiritual clones, creating viruses or vaccines from the information of consumed targets, and having a body that functions as a nuclear warhead. Due to this, the entity was isolated by the management with the request, "Please stay quietly at the bottom of the sea..." The data was not deleted because the god who values the world setting objected.

Q. It's hard to grasp the size of the New Continent and the Old Continent.

A. The planet has two continents, each roughly the size of North America. There are various settings regarding the players' perception of the size, but the continents are about that size. In other words, at the end of the primordial era, the North American continents stood upright and fought each other. There is a setting to explain why the planet didn't become a mess, but I can't reveal it!

Q. What was the relationship and interaction between Noalrind and the dragon people?

A. Noalrind: "I am great, and you, my followers, are fortunate. Worship me! (To the followers who somehow appeared, he acts like a boss)"

Dragon People: "Sure (Stress begins to accumulate quietly)"

Q. What happened when the light attribute was applied?

A. Noalrind developed a fondness for the dragon people, similar to the affection for weeds in a garden.

The dragon people felt a bit lighter in their hearts.

Q. What is the main weapon of the wild Vorbunny that appears in the highest difficulty area, and how do they fight?

A. The wild Vorbunny that appears in the highest difficulty area is in the western part of the New Continent. The strongest one confirmed by players is around the giant tribe's settlement. Generally, the monsters in the New Continent are either infected with the dragon virus, have adapted to the infection, or are strong enough to resist it. Therefore, blunt weapons and giant greatswords aimed at giant-killing are popular. If you get careless while they are dragging their greatswords, you might be cut in half!

Q. The intelligent doll Christine, who was not a broken interior, was cursed and needs to be freed.

A. To be honest, apart from being a ball joint, it looks almost human. The face and touch feel slightly hard, but it can even smile. However, the cross-section is not exposed plugs or wires but a single material like a cut daikon radish with mysterious light lines running through it. This material itself is nanotechnology that performs the functions of a machine, so there's no need to prepare individual wires or skeletons.

Incidentally, the creator's preferences are heavily reflected, so she wears a cute outfit over a cyberpunk-style suit. After the battle with Dureed Howl, Saina's outfit burned off, leaving her in a tight suit.

Q. I'm curious about the 20% of Katsuo that was taken by others in the official match and the state of the bulletin board after GGC.

A. The mood was supportive at the start of Round 1, but when they lost Round 1, people started to wonder, "Huh?" By Round 2, almost everyone was laughing. After the battle? "As expected, Katsuo is a bottom!"

Q. Can you explain the differences in the chest armor of the Saeiga family and other female characters in detail while having a girls' night?

A. In the Saeiga family, the ranking is: second daughter >> mother > third daughter = eldest daughter. The eldest daughter is not small; the second daughter is just too big.

Q. Since the GHC software was sent to Sunraku, does this mean that GHC is already released in the current timeline? If so, I'm curious about the bulletin board's excitement on the release day!

A. Initially, a large number of low-level players appeared, but about 70% of them self-destructed due to motorcycle armor accidents. Many patterns of falling and hitting walls in Metias were observed, leading to the conclusion, "If you could perfectly mimic the movements of real Metias or real Cursed Prison, you wouldn't be a NEET here." Additionally, Metias users who quickly earned a lot of tiers became a topic of discussion.

Q. I'd like to see a bulletin board thread about No Face soon.

A. I originally planned to make it a side story, but since the fighting game chapter is more popular than I expected, I'll include it in the main story of the Amelia invasion. Be prepared.

Q. Why can you add horns in character creation even though you can't change the race? Is it just for decoration?

A. It's for decoration, but I've added a setting now. Those horns are actually solidified magic power that has transformed the skin and protruded from the body.

Q. I'm curious about the bulletin board reaction when Katsuo lost in GGC.

A. Refer to the previous answer.

Q. Are there any plans to visit other cities in the Old Continent that haven't been explored yet?

A. There are plans to return to the Old Continent due to the Einvurs Kingdom turmoil arc, but the plot will expand, so it's uncertain whether new cities will be visited. If they do, it will likely be one or two.

Q. If fossils of ancient scorpions appear, how soon will that happen?

A. I could introduce them right away, but that's a joke. Fossils have already appeared briefly in the early stages. In Shangfuru, fossil items can be used to create weapons. So if scorpion fossils are found... hehehe.

Q. If Vash Children are mistakenly consumed, would Sanma Shark gain NPC-level intelligence?

A. No, the Vash Family's ability to speak is not a physical ability.

Q. I'm a bit curious about the power difference between Sanma Shark, Ultra Penguin, and Galaxy Turtle.

A. If Sanma Shark is Cell, then Ultra Penguin and Galaxy Turtle are self-centered Goku. In the sense that they have no upper limit to their growth, they are essentially Goku.

Q. Is the current Neopholo environment cycling through Fiddler Crab → Bilateral Symmetry → King Scambit → Fiddler Crab?

A. The situation is even more chaotic. In a sense, it's a return to the origin, where various experimental builds are born and disappear in a chaotic environment. Additionally, new players who bought the original game from the sequel information are mixed in, making it even more chaotic. Incidentally, the new machine of the Rusmol combination is an Ashura Baron build with an ultra-close right half and an ultra-distant left half, named "Duel Ash."

Q. I'd like to know the opinions and trends of general Shangfuru players. Light users who don't know much probably don't care, and the hardcore players are mentioned in the story. But how do the advanced players, who are not hardcore but play seriously, view Sunraku and the others?

A. They are a significant source of envy, and of course, there are haters. However, the haters are a mix of gamer haters and Shangfuru debut haters, leading to intense internal conflicts. However, since the unique and world quests haven't progressed in a year, many voices praise Sunraku for advancing the story so quickly.

Q. Why was the previous Red Dragon in the Old Continent, and were there any creatures contaminated by its factor?

A. Simply due to the activation rate of the two sleeping dragons. The turtle is currently in deep sleep, so the values haven't reached the point where dragons can be generated. The period when Nabe Gama was active was slightly advanced from the primordial to the ancient era. The infected individuals died out over time.

Q. What happened to the bodies of the primordial monsters killed by the penguin and the turtle?

A. They were eaten. Until just before they reached ultra-galactic size, the two were consuming energy through normal oral intake. However, they eventually became a Shin Godzilla-like existence that could survive by consuming magic power.

Q. What are the combat records of the direct Vash lineage, especially if any have killed players?

A. No player-killing AtoZ exists, but there are some that have killed NPCs. E.

Q. I'm curious about Aki Tsutsu's thoughts on the wagon games.

A. The wagon games are not limited to bad games. However, Aki Tsutsu has experience with dangerous games.

Q. Is kiken a magic or a skill? The notation is inconsistent, so which is correct?

A. I apologize, but this is due to the author's inconsistency. The correct term is magic. In the early stages of my work, the use of " and 【】 is often inconsistent...

Q. This is a bit off-topic, but I'd like to confirm the stance on a secondary creation of a Bakumatsu Yarou thread. Secondary creations are allowed, but I want to confirm again due to the nature of the Yarou thread. I have already checked with the board.

A. Regarding secondary creations, I follow the Namura stance, which is "I don't mind, I don't mind!" So, I don't mind, I don't mind! To be a bit more serious, as long as it's not for commercial use, it's generally okay. I never thought I would be the one saying "commercial use"...

However, please avoid excessively harming the characters or significantly damaging their character settings... At least, let the original write that kind of content first! (The sound of darkness leaking out)

Q. What happened in the server cancer? I want to know soon ❤️

A. Wait a bit longer until one more character appears ❤️

Q. Will the current growth levels of the Vash lineage rabbits be disclosed?

A. Edward is just one step away from level 100, but he's holding back.

Birrak is at level 99 but is still far from becoming a divine craftsman... about 30% progress.

Seekru is at level 99, but her skill and magic proficiency is insane... because if left alone, she might do something unpredictable.

Diala was about to catch up to Emur, but with the recombination of that duo, she will likely fall behind again.

Emur is about to reach level 100. If a large amount of experience is added here, she will probably level up.

To clarify, the condition for reaching level 100 is simply that the required experience is extremely high.

Q. When Deeplo was playing Specular, 18+ content was not allowed. How did he collect lewd content back then?

A. He used his family's wealth to cut those settings.

Q. Did he bypass age verification to search for borderline erotic content?

A. His VR system's memory is filled with a large amount of R18 data, but there is no Icha-Icha content as a hidden setting.

Q. I'm curious about his reaction when he encounters a happy woman.

A. On the surface, there is no change, and he doesn't engage in harassment. However, a level of dark emotions that normal people rarely experience accumulates unnoticed. Interactions with Sunraku are one of the few events that reduce this accumulated darkness.
