1. Sawkill Rd, Kingston, NY on Sunday, January 13th, 2019

--------

In New York, the coolest month of the year is mid-January.

On the second floor of a house on the side of St. Ann's Semetallic on the way from Lake Catherine to Woodstock on the Hudson River, Dean-McNamara heard the hard disk of the notebook PC activate the OS.

When I wanted to make it SSD, skype announced the arrival of the message.

"Hi Dean. Oh, my God!

It was a message from Paul, a team planning a massive turn-off in New York to explore D-card functionality.

Dean grabbed and wore the Jabra Evolve 80 on his desk and switched to a video call.

I bought a headset that was attracted to active noise cancellation, but I realized after I bought it that there was no noise around his house.

Actually, it seemed to reduce the sound of the air conditioning and the sound of PC fans, but it would not be heard even if the music was playing.

However, he was satisfied with the function and liked it. Including busy lights where only you can see them in the window glass.

"What's going on?

"I just got an incredible e-mail."

"From whom?

"Don't be surprised. The Weissman, from Azsa Miyoshi."

The hand holding Dean's mouse when he heard that is powerful.

"Hmm?! What?! I can't believe I'm going off this time...."

"No, the boulder won't be able to do that."

"What a shame. So, what's up?

"If you're very interested in our event and there's going to be a lot of people, Azsa's company will be able to secure the venue."

"Hah?! Why?"

I don't know. Because I don't know the number of people, I was asked if it would be okay to go to the Javits Center, although it is a short distance from Breezy Point for now. If it's urgent, we can hold it on Saturday and Sunday at the end of February, 23-24. "

"Javits Center?!

The Javits Center is the largest exhibition area in New York City.

It will be easy to understand when it comes to the New York Comic Con venue. It's an American comic book or pop culture festival. Comic Con is also exported to Japan, and will also be conducted this November 22-24 using Messe's 9-11 Hall.

Speaking to computer officials, the organizer of the Silicon Valley Comic Con is that Steve Wozniak. Well, it's an event like that.

"Isn't it a prime place? What was requested of you as a sponsor?

"No, I didn't have any business demands like sales. I'm just renting out a device for sale at Azsa's company, so I want you to try it."

"Devices for sale at her company? So, isn't that a status measurement device?!

Surprised Dean stood up unexpectedly and fell off the frame of the video.

Paul smiled excitedly as he walked left and right like a bear. His gamer headset is still wired. Not so many will be able to move.

"Probably. Probably the first loan in the world.

Dean expressed concern as he stepped out close to the camera and pushed his right index and middle fingers toward the camera.

"You haven't even started selling anything for the first time. What if someone disassembles the equipment and checks it out?

"They'll tie the DNA to the boulder, and the tech staff will come with them.

Well, I guess so.

Dean sat back in the chair as if he were convinced.

"But you're excited, right? Don't you want to know your status?

Wow, I want to know.

"Well, if there's going to be a lot of Explorers coming together and things are going to be different, I'd appreciate it if you could go through the gates and compare them every time things change."

"Oh, do you have any idea what the status would be like if we had a party?

The content of the party announced at Hivenleaks included a +5% status correction when the party was formed.

However, this was not proven by numbers in itself, and even if the number of ordinary Explorers increased by 5%, the effect was not well understood, so little emphasis was placed on it.

Well, I guess so. They want comparative information based on various conditions. It will take a little time to enter the status, so the people who will help will bring the hotel expenses to Azsa's company. "

"What? New York, huh? Taking care of the hotel is too much for the questionnaire. Isn't that a bit suspicious?

Dean put his arms together and wrinkled between his eyebrows with a difficult face.

"It seems that her company was created to support people challenging the secrecy of the dungeon, so it seems to be doing a lot of business like that."

He looked stunned in that pose.

"Ha-ha. Is that going to be business?

"Business is more of a part of branding than business. And because Simon and the others took care of him, it said something like giving back to us."

"What is that? Well, is Simon's team in yogi now?

"It's not just Simon. Almost all of the world's top teams are in yogi. Rumor has it that civilian salmon and witches are also yogis. This is the first time this has happened since the dungeon."

Paul laughed that I wanted to go too.

"Well, if you're going to help me with that kind of request, I'd really appreciate it, but... in that case, I'd like the results somehow."

"That's the luck of the hour, so make yourself at home. It said," Enjoy the dungeon. "

Wow. I know. "

"Because I'm a Weissman."

"However, if the accommodation fee becomes free, I think there will be a sharp increase in the number of applicants, but how do I handle my personal information?

Measurement is part of the experiment anyway. There's nothing wrong with cooperating, and it would be great for those who come here on their own to pay for their accommodations.

However, the quantified status data can be quite important personal information. It would be natural to be careful with handling. After all, this is a lawsuit power.

"They don't associate the data they collect with specific individuals. Probably no problem."

"Oh, as long as we know it's the same person's data, it doesn't matter who it is."

"Maybe."

"But how do you know it's the same person?

"They're sending me a tag. I just want you to wear that tag and go around the device gate."

That's fine. You don't even need to publish your name. Does the number of tags mean the number of people who will pay for the hotel? "

"That's right. If it's about 1,000 rooms, there's no problem, so please join us."

"Seriously!?

It says, "When you stay in the Mandarin Suite, you're pissed."

Paul said that with a smile.

"That's right... if it's not a suite, is that OK?

"Hmm, that's it. At least 800 bucks, right?

New York is expensive. High-end hotels tend to have a low line of $600.

There are cheap hotels, but please understand in terms of service.

"... let's put this thing down. If you fill a thousand rooms in Waldorf Astoria, New York Palace, Four Seasons, Pierre A. Taj, Azsa will be furious."

Let's say that the challenge to book a luxury hotel is a privilege only granted to brave people who are willing to pay for it if they need it.

That's right.

"Okay, let's decide on an experiment plan and recruit survey collaborators. I can't afford to pay for transportation, but I'll advertise the venue and the accommodation fee to Weissman."

"When the time frame is set, I'll transfer the money, so you can contact me for a quote outside the venue."

"Roger that. A little more than a month. Okay, that's getting interesting!

"Absolutely."

I ended the call, took off my headset and looked out the window as if it would cool off your excitement.

I was thinking about borrowing around WeWork, so I was worried about how to narrow down the number of people, but Javits has no problem exceeding a thousand people.

As he watched the sunset dye the sky and cemetery orange, he began to think seriously about what kind of experiment to do.

2. YYG Dungeon level.32, Tokyo on Sunday, January 27th, 2019

--------

Beyond the 31st floor staircase was a giant tree, as if life itself were spreading its arms.

The stairs were connected to the tree uro.

"Wow, what? Here."

Natalie, who came out of Uro, looked around and said.

It was a land covered in short grass, and something like a glowing flower was blooming there.

Is this... an oak?

Simon looked up at the tree he was coming out of.

Besides, it's so tightly entangled.

And Joshua saw all over the branches, and said, as if they were round bumps.

This is the atmosphere that the King of the Forest is about to emerge.

What's that?

Fraser, right? Is this the sanctuary of Diana Nemorensis? Look, there's a mirror for Deanna too.

At the tip of Natalie's finger, something like water was sparkling in the stars and flower lights.

Anyway, the air feels a little different.

Simon looked around and said so.

Explorers from around the world came down one after the other, often looking around.

This thing really stinks.

"Is that it?" Joshua asked Simon.

"You saw Reeks, right? He came out of a dungeon on the island of Man."

"... a safe area?

Simon put his index finger on his mouth towards Joshua. It's a sign that the others will hear you.

Natalie agreed to that.

Exactly like that.

Well, suppose this is it.

It's a place fight.

"Hey, this is Japan, right?

Yoyogi is public, so early winners will win. Japan is different. We can't do it, either. We'll get it back. "

Copy that.

Simon's team moved quickly.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

"The US team has begun to act."

"Apparently they felt the same way."

Steel 1 answered the words of 3 samurai.

It seemed that other countries were beginning to follow suit.

"But territorial claims will be difficult. I can't believe they brought materials to build a hub here."

After all, it's completely forgotten, but teams other than the militia came to rescue Team I.

No one would have imagined we'd find a place like this with that extension.

"If you can still claim an untouched area, you'll be able to claim some of your rights."

Io, while affirming it, speculated on what they were supposed to claim in the future.

"What do you mean?"

"We'll cut back on the untouched area before they do. We have the biggest number of people."

"Is this the dog that pisses on the pole? What a job!"

"Protecting our national interests is our job.... well, this is a tough place to serve the palace."

Team I started acting in pairs to crush the untouched area while chanting the Mourning Festival.

3. TV tabloid show in Japan on Monday, January 28th, 2019

--------

The day after Yoshimura and Miyoshi were transferred back from the 31st floor, the morning wide show was a topic of discussion.

"We are inviting Mr. Serina Takada, who won the 38th Osaka International Women's Marathon yesterday with an amazing record, to the studio. Congratulations on Serina-san's victory."

"Thank you."

"Serina-san is still a 21-year-old college student. But it was an incredible time."

"Osaka International is one of the fastest courses in the world because it is flat and easy to run, but it was a bit too successful."

Serina said with a small tongue in her tea eyes.

The caster nodded to it and took out the flip.

"Now I'm going to show you the current record of the women's marathon."

Then, after being introduced from the 10th position with a brief explanation in sequence, the caster peeled off sequentially from the 3rd position where it was flipped.

"That's it, second place! That means yesterday's world record. Two hours, 15 minutes, 25 seconds! This record was a huge one that had not been broken in 15 years in the modern marathon situation, where the second place had been pulled away for more than a minute and 30 seconds."

The studio leaked a voice of exclamation.

"So, of course, number one is the record that Serina-san made yesterday. Oh, my God, 2 hours, 14 minutes, 18 seconds. All right, everybody, what a minute or more we've reduced this big record!

Oh, I'm surprised.

When Se Satona said that, the caster shoved in and invited her to laugh.

"No, really, I'm surprised."

"Until then, Serina-san's self vest had been shortened by almost 8 minutes because it was 2 hours, 22 minutes and 31 seconds. With all due respect, I'm afraid there's been a lot of suspicion of doping."

"That can't be helped. But I don't think there's any medicine to shrink the records for eight minutes at a time."

"The opposite is amazing, isn't it? Of course, Serina-san was a faggot."

There is a laugh in the studio.

"Eight minutes doesn't sound like a big deal, but it's 480 seconds on a 42.195 kilometer journey, so you need to shrink by more than one second every 100 meters."

The studio was once again wrapped in exclamation.

"It's not normal. What the hell caused this? Is the Force awake?

"Perhaps. If I had been in Osaka the day before yesterday, I think it would have been 23 minutes or at most 22 minutes."

Selina said something strange, and for a moment, the caster looked at her.

"Huh? What do you mean? Speaking of which, I heard that Mr. Se Satona was absent from the first call and entered Osaka late at night. I hear you've all been very worried."

"Yes, it was Tokyo that I couldn't get rid of. So I was asking the League of Nations, but I'm glad you admitted it. If I hadn't been admitted, I'd have given up running."

"That was lucky for the League of Nations. It's a world record."

When the caster stepped aside, the studio laughed again.

"But I'm curious about important things like international tournaments and scales."

When I glanced at the sleeves on the stage, I saw a flip saying, "Push in."

"There seems to be information that I was walking with Masato Mori-kun the other day, but I don't think I have a date with my boyfriend!?

Masato Furuku is a 20-year-old up-and-coming long-distance runner who belongs to the same university as Serina Takada.

"Hahaha, I wouldn't shake the tournament bars for such a reason. I'm not your first boyfriend. I just happen to have the same business as Unbreakable -"

"Huh? Is it true that you were with Mr. Unbreakable?

"Yes, I was in Tokyo on the same business."

"Yeah? What kind of..."

"Let's wait for his activity at the Beppu Daily Marathon this weekend."

The Beppu Oita Daily Marathon is often referred to as the "newcomer's climbing gate" and, like Osaka International, the MGC (Marathon Grand Championship). Tokyo Olympic Selection Committee).

The caster wasn't able to penetrate because it was so crushed.

"Well, I'll be looking forward to the weekend. Ladies and gentlemen, the Daily Marathon of Beppu is in the spotlight!

When the caster re-partitioned, he turned to the next topic.

"Anyway, we now have the right to compete in the Grand Championship of the Tokyo Olympic Selection Committee. There is also Doha at the same time....."

"Today is yesterday, so I want to think about it slowly."

Really? Thank you very much for today. "

"Thank you again for your support."

It was only after the Beppu Municipal Daily Marathon held on February 3rd that the immortal scored an astonishing world record of 20 minutes and 43 seconds that it became known that what she said could not be removed was a bootcamp held in Yoyogi on February 26th.
