＜Infinite Dendrogram＞

"What a surprise..."

Suddenly falling from the sky, I was breathing roughly to get my buzzing heart done.

The feeling of that fall is still there.

Clear but fast and changing vision.

Rubbing sound with the air when I myself fall.

The coolness of the atmosphere over the contact.

The smell of wind I've never smelled.

And since landing unnaturally and without anything...... the taste of dirt after a bewildered fall.

It was the pain that seemed to be off in the initial setting that I didn't feel, but all five other senses felt this world and judged it just like reality.

"But... this is real"

A real dive-shaped VRMMO.

I realized that the game of dreams had finally become a reality as the quality of my dreams remained.

The thrill passed, but I entered the world of < Infinite Dendrogram >.

If you look around you, there's a giant gate standing behind me.

The gate is built into a white wall large enough to look up. In addition, it is soldiers wearing Western-style armor who are guarding the gates.

This gate was also among the views we saw in Chesha's room, so apparently this is definitely Althea, the king's capital of the Kingdom of Alter.

The gates leading to the city are open, and carriages and people have been coming and going from the outside to the inside and from the outside since the beginning.

Apparently, we can put it in normally.

But it's the first time, so I'm afraid - in one way or another, in a mood of behavior suspicion - I knock at the gate.

Then, naturally, I was able to enter the city.

"Okay."

Apparently, there is no problem with internal or external travel in Althea, the king's capital of the Kingdom of Alter.

I've safely entered the city, so all I have to do is head to the rendezvous point with my brother.

"The Great Fountain on Wangdu Central Avenue, right? He said if you go straight in through the entrance, you'll get there... um, just in case."

I said 'Main Menu' in my heart.

Then a window like the game screen appears before me, as it was in the explanatory notes.

The windows are bisected, with various menu items such as my own simple status on the right, 'Gear', 'Tools' and 'Detail Status' on the left, as in the RPG party window.

Looking at Chirali and status, my current level was 0.

Apparently < Infinite Dendrogram > has a level for each profession, so I was currently unemployed and fixed at level 0.

"Map map, and"

Find the desired one from the menu item and start it.

Then a new window opens, where you can see a map of this king's capital, Althea.

Normally, in this game, maps are either filled by foot on their own, or they buy maps at the map store and capture them on the map to increase them.

But the explanatory note said it was input from the beginning only to the capital of the country to which it belongs, which is the starting point for beginners, and to the maps around the capital. Convenient.

"Hmm."

Althea, the king's capital, is a city surrounded by circular walls.

The walls have gates on all sides, east, west and north, and large cobblestone paths are laid straight from the gates on all sides to the heart of the country.

The vertical and horizontal paths cross the cross if they remain so, but they will not. In the centre of the Wang capital, there is once again a castle wall, in which it seems to be a city reserved for nobility.

They need a special permit to enter the aristocratic district, and a royal castle is built in the heart of that aristocratic city. I don't think I can use it for a while.

Now, the central street at the rendezvous point says the road from the south gate to the aristocratic district.

Finally, it seems that it was the South Gate that I twitched earlier, so if you keep going straight, you'll hit the fountain.

and so on. Looking at the map and walking,

"Huh!?"

"Huh?"

I met a strange woman at close range.

Why, because she was running out of the alley next to me and I didn't notice her until this distance because I was looking at the map myself.

I couldn't avoid her for the delayed reaction, and as a natural consequence, me and her bumped into each other.

As a result, I was jumped “over fifteen meters”.

"Gohoo......"

I feel like the damage came in pretty bad.

On the left open menu screen, a simple status tells me that my HP has been reduced by 80%.

In addition, the bone seems to be broken, and is labeled abnormal [left arm fracture] [right foot fracture].

Isn't it amazingly fragile to just be hit by a woman, mybody...

"So, are you okay!?"

She bumped into me. She ran over to me with a blue face.

She has fluffy hair and a tender look...... but she is wearing white metal armor that looks daunting. It's no surprise there's about a hundred kilometers.

I've had it worn before, but plate mails are so heavy for breaking thickness.

"Oh, no..."

I tried to answer, "It's okay, there's no such thing," but my tongue doesn't move well due to the effects of the heavy damage or my body being paralyzed.

"Sorry! Force Heels!

Moment after moment, her hands glowed white, and the grain of light emanating from those hands descended on my body.

Immediately after that, my HP was completely fast and the [fracture] condition anomaly had disappeared.

"Oh, oh..."

Apparently, that was restorative magic.

I realized that this is what happens when I die at once, when I fully heal, and when I taste the world of games in real life. I'm a little scared.

"I'm so sorry! Because I was running without looking right in front..."

"Yes, no, I've been looking into it too... by the way, were you okay there?

I thought she might have been hurt something too because she bumped into me with the kind of momentum I get fatally injured, but it seems completely intact.

... Oh, I wonder if this is it.

She looks like a player with very strong gear and high levels.

So, you're saying you got that miserable because I bumped into someone with a high level and naturally a high status and a level 0 me?

"I'm fine. But you're hurt so badly..."

"Well, you're cured, and I'm fine."

It won't be my fault that my voice is trembling over the fact that nature and tone are becoming salutations. The damage caused by the collision is frightening.

"And, by the way, it looks like we were in a very hurry, what's wrong?

When I ask her that, she tries to remind me of something.

"Well, actually, my sister popped out of the house, and I was looking for her."

"Your sister?

"Yes, it's the kid in this picture, didn't you see him somewhere?

That said, the woman took the photo from her nostalgia - a fantastic view of the world, but the photo seems to be popular - and showed it to me.

The photo shows a cute girl who has grown the woman in front of her and changed her hair quality from wavy to straight.

My sister. I guess she's playing with all the sisters, just like me and my brother.

…………

It's bad for her to look at me like a straw, but I don't recognize her.

"Sorry, I'm just getting started and I just walked into this city through that gate over there..."

"Really... then inside... That's my contact information. If you see my sister anywhere, please let me know! And I'm so sorry I bumped into you!

She wrote something down on the paper she took out and gave it to me.

"You don't have to apologize anymore, so find your sister soon"

"Thank you...... see you later!

That said, she ran away, and I was left with a single note on hand.

This is what the note said.

"Liliana Grandria, Deputy Head of the Knights of Kingsguard of the Kingdom of Alter"

Is that it?

Stranger characters are converted into Japanese in my head.

No, there's more to it than that...

[Quest [Finder - Migliane Grandria Difficulty: V] has occurred]

[Please check the quest screen for quest details]

…………

Oh, yeah.

This means that no matter how you look at it, she looked just like a biological person, not a player......

"Is that guy NPC?!?"

Another reminder was that < Infinite Dendrogram > was a dive-type VRMMO with misdigit realities.
