Shangri-La Frontier - Episode 19

In Episode 19, Sunraku returns to Rabituza after an exhausting night battle against the Goldy Scorpions. There, he wants to find out if Bilac has achieved the status of an Ancient Craftswoman. Carrying rare materials, including the Crystal Ballista Stinger and the Crystal Life Core of the Goldy Scorpion, he approaches her. Bilac not only confirms her new status but also reveals that she has repaired the Non-Standard Ether Reactor. This grants Sunraku access to the powerful Legacy Weapons.

Full of anticipation, Sunraku tries out the futuristic armor and attempts to equip the Non-Standard Special Armor. However, Lycagon's curse thwarts his plans, preventing him from wearing certain equipment. Disappointed by this unexpected obstacle, he decides to withdraw for the time being to ensure no one else gets their hands on the Legacy Weapons.

In the real world, Rakuro Hizutome, Sunraku's true self, is also preoccupied with the situation. His sister Rumi advises him to focus on something else to improve his mood. Taking her advice, he logs back into the robot game Nephilim Hollow after a long time. There, he accepts a challenge from Super Ballman and defeats him in an exciting duel. However, at the end of the episode, Rust, the top-ranked player in the game, appears, hinting at an impending confrontation.
