Endure This! Run! Part 12: We Interrupt This Presentation of Romeo x Juliet...

Wow, it really has been that long since the last time I posted one of these, huh?

Anyways, when we last left our heroes, The Conqueror's army marched through the streets of Elysion just as David finally attended Congress. After being distracted by a woman wearing a very impractical outfit, Rush discovered that a older and more muscular version of Liquid Snake was the real The Conqueror. However, now that Congress is in recess, we can get back to the important thing: sidequesting!

So we stop off in Celapaleis. Guess who's there?

Rush thought he was getting some sweet Khrynia Kush for that price. Unfortunately, it's just some simple medicinal herb that you can buy in a legal shop in town. Rush makes a mental note not to get swindled by her again...

Anyways, Rush decides to stop in the bar, thinking about what he's going to say to his dad, when he spots another classy gent.

Dude, you're a Baron, you can have any woman you want with that cash and that 'stache. Nonetheless, Rush is tempted by the idea of slaughtering monsters and winning back the 1000 G that he...misplaced a minute ago.

Oh hey look it's a giant fucking monster. Just chillin. Unfortunately, this is not a rare monster to be destroyed for a quest, but all the same we must kill it. Not because it is easy, but because it is there. Or something.

Being a large-ass monster, allied units cannot flank it, but only engage in multi-deadlock. Also, that Dust Devil attack is annoying with the ability to hit a larger area in front of the monster.

Rush can now shock people and wildlife with even greater force after killing that monster. Huzzah!

Yeah, some grandeur, being forced to run to a monster-infested battlefield in the smallest not-town map in the game.

Rush: Well, yeah, he kinda did, he was worried about...

Gabriel: Dios mio! And los diablos too? You are a fearsome boy!

Rush: Wait a minute, what do you mean?

Violet and Gabriel join up to help us beat down a few Unions of the weakest enemies in the game. I don't know how they coordinated their attack so well, but apparently they forgot the whole strength aspect of their team.

Rush stops listening and uses the Fulton Recovery system to teleport back to the bar, where Baron Nielsen is ready to receive us.

Afterwards, Baron Nielsen returned to his home to render judgment on the newest play, The Tale of Gregory, Allen. So mad was he at it that he didn't notice his fiancee slipping out a window to elope with Gabriel again.

Oh crap, we forgot all about Rush's dad, didn't we? Guess we better get back to that...
