Episode Title:
Malice at 100 Meters Per Second
Episode Description:
Katzo shows the recording of his loss to Sylvia at a previous GGC. Rakuro agrees she fights the same way he does, only with greater reaction times. As Katzo insists on dueling Sylvia, Rakuro decides to focus on defeating her teammates. He goes shopping for energy drinks and encounters a foreign girl in a mask he suspects is a gamer from how she looks at a poster of Shangri-La. The girl returns to her hotel where she is revealed to be Silvia. Having grown bored of practicing Galaxia Heroes, she impulsively decides to try Shangri-La Frontier for the first time. In his room, Rakuro is likewise bored and logs into Shangri-La where it is night time and all the fish-men have reverted back into normal fish. Araba warns him a King roams the city at night. Rakuro quickly spots King, a giant shark named Atlanticus that preys on dragon-fish using fire and electricity attacks. Rakuro provokes Atlanticus into chasing him towards a Sealing General tower to see if it is possible to destroy them. At one point, he barely dodges an attack and realizes the professional gaming chairs provided by the GGC have much faster reaction times than the helmets used by normal gamers. Atlanticus attacks again, destroying a huge area of Ruluiath with Rakuro seemingly caught in the blast.
