＜Infinite Dendrogram＞

□ ■

We walk side by side in the city of dusk.

Do we look like sisters or parents or children?

I feel a little strange because Marie, my avatar, is like my daughter in the first place.

That's how in the process of walking, I chose a certain, less-popular path.

The reason is that more than a dozen minutes passes through here or not will change the destination, the time of arrival at Count Gideon's mansion.

Or…….

"Stop."

I'm called from behind to stop and look back.

Shortly after, something went through my neck.

After my body wobbled a little - my neck fell off my torso.

◆ ◆ ◆

■ Occupational Assassin Group < Reaper's Pinky Finger > Head [Murderer (Dead Hand)] Lu Zien

"Target secured"

"Confirmation of the murder of an accompanying person"

In my sight, the woman who dropped her neck disappears into the dust of light.

The target's second princess has also passed out whether she was shocked by the sight in front of her.

"Hmm, the master? You're not even going to die."

They always do.

The body disappears even if it's fatally wounded, and in three days he's walking away with a face that won't eat anything.

It also serves non-standard forces, even the Embrio.

It's also troublesome to have networks with each other.

Even those of us who carry out murders at the request of nobles and bourgeoisies, targeting "undead” opponents is troublesome and, normally, ignores them.

But it is convenient to have < master > beside the second princess, the target of this one, on the contrary.

"We have proof."

"It's been documented how he was walking around the city with the princess. If you anonymously submit this“ evidence ”after killing the princess, she will be internationally nominated as a" Princess Kidnapper "."

That said, my men took out a video crystal for recording.

False physical evidence would crush it with the True and False Judgment, but this is indisputable authenticity. Don't worry about it.

That woman seemed to use her "phantom" skills to mislead the princess's appearance, but that is a skill that works on the spirit of the creature. It's pointless for inorganic objects.

It looks like they also hung a "disguise" that altered the display of the status, but that's not relevant to the camera footage.

Besides, it doesn't work for anyone who is as skilled as I am as an [assassin] and meets Mind Eye and Nursing.

From the point of view of not being able to see through the subordinates who remain in lower positions, it seems that they were quite a level of Fantasy.

It is not surprising why one [reporter] possessed "phantom" and "disguise" skills.

But those are skills that are not relevant to combat behavior, and they may have used something I learned in a job other than [reporter].

"If it is to be a royal killing, it will be arranged for immediate nomination, regardless of the country. Then he'll be back in jail."

If you die over there, the same goes for the dead.

"It's going well."

"Oh, it's a lot easier than planned because we're just dealing with helpless women and children"

It was originally necessary to dare fight the Kingsguard Knights and poison them by breaking into the mansion.

But for some reason, the princess herself had left the mansion alone, and even accompanied the scapegoat.

This is truly unfortunate.

"I can make a good report to the Marquis de Borozel, too"

To my solitude like that,

"Huh, you weren't Count Brittis, were you?"

- A response that was not the voice of my men flowed into the wind.

Shortly afterwards, a subordinate, who had a second princess who fainted in shock, bleeds from both hands and feet and falls screaming.

Saw. My men have severed tendons in both hands and feet.

Seen. Both eyes of the second princess, who had passed out, are firmly open.

I saw it. In the second princess's right hand - a dagger of disastrous design is grasped.

Got it. This guy's not a second princess or anything - he's an enemy.

"Kill him!"

At my behest, the eight men on the spot threw a poisoned dagger simultaneously.

But the enemy, who looked like the Second Princess, jumped behind her back.

He turns around behind his men, who were about to fall down after having their hands and feet cut off, and replaces them with shields.

All the daggers were pierced by his shielded men, who died shortly after screaming.

"I'll do terrible things."

While shielding the body, he connects words.

"But if it's a flavor of the outer road trying to kill an innocent child... you can't help but lose your life"

When the enemy appeared by throwing down the body, the figure was no longer that of the Second Princess.

Dark hair, like melting the night, completely different from the princess's blonde hair.

The tops and bottoms of the occasional "men's suits” that are worn in drife and cardina.

Sunglasses hung on your face, even though the sun is already about to fall.

Even height physique is like different. This one is obviously an adult.

Only the dagger on his right hand and the fox face hung diagonally on his head are the same as when he was the second princess.

"Nevertheless," The Art of Change (...) "has a problem with SP consumption when the physique is very different."

And the face belongs to the Master, who was supposed to have cut off his neck earlier and killed him.

On the back of his left hand was a gleam of the crest - a "pistol” was held in his palm.

"Are you...!

"Whoa, whoa, what's going on? With a face like I've even seen a ghost."

Why are you alive?

Why were you making it up?

Wasn't this [reporter]?

Again, use your Nursing skills to peek into his status.

Marie Adler

Occupation: [Reporter]

Level: 32 (Total Level: 33)

...... Saw it. Again, this guy is a [reporter] and has a total level of about 30.

"What? Giro, it's rude to watch, isn't it?

"Is it the inherent skill of < Embrio > that came back to life?

Then it is also convincing that he was soon resurrected.

"Why do you need to come back to life if you're not dead?

"... where did the real princess go. When did you switch?"

"Nothing to replace, I've been in this alley since the beginning"

In the middle of words, one of my men, who was waiting in the building by the alley, jumps behind him and shakes his blade if he doesn't chop off his neck.

The moment I thought I had a blade in my neck, he turned into dust of light and disappeared.

At the same time a blade-wielding subordinate fainted and lay down on the ground.

"It's just me from the start."

His voice was heard from somewhere else again.

That's the roof of the building where the guy jumped right now.

But his appearance had changed again.

The body takes a "black" and its appearance is obscure and does not look right.

The only thing I can tell is that he's got a fox face on his head and a dagger in his left hand - a strange pistol in his right hand.

…………

"Nursing" left activated.

I could see a completely different piece of information there.

■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■

Occupation: [■ ■]

Level: ■ ■ (Total level: ■ ■ ■)

I can't see the name anymore.

The profession, too, became invisible.

I can't even peek at my status.

I've experienced this when I was training as an [assassin].

This is how I look when I get a skill level "disguise" far higher than my "breakthrough".

But my Skill Level for "Nursing" is the 10 best in the Assassin System Senior Position [Murderer].

More advanced "disguise" than that?

"Impossible"

Impossible, but I can't see through the fact "disguise".

But still, if it's my "breakthrough," it should fit about the number of digits in the letter.

"Impossible..."

But now the number of digits was the biggest problem.

The level of the job is three digits.

At least, it can't be a [reporter] in a junior position with a 50 level cap.

The first indication is due to skills similar to Disguise, and there are only two possible results of this indication.

Those who, like me, did not train their senior positions to the limit.

Or...

"Who are you...!!"

When I asked, the woman smiled terribly.

It's like who I've been waiting for to do what.

"- I'm a shadow."

His mouth spins words so that he can put in strong thoughts.

"" It is the shadow of your overlapping evil deeds, dragging yourself into darkness - the shadow of death. ""

A wave of cold, playful words, not the way you spoke making fun of this one earlier.

"Into the Shadow."

Spread his hands, as if on a theatrical stage, he shouted up the words.

"By Ichimiya, Killer Genius (...) Battle Comics (...) Quoted from Into The Shadow Episode One: Shadow"

When he uttered a different and unintelligible word for the vector than before, his atmosphere was back to normal.

But the "disguised" status, which is still visible, and the fact that it killed these men instantly, does not disappear either.

Me, and my men couldn't move, and I just had to pay full attention to him every step of the way.

"Uh-oh!

Of these, the newest and most immature men jumped out unbearably.

Stupid.

But the sacrifice would have made a gap in him even for a moment.

That's what I thought.

…………

The woman just moved ahead from her wrist silently.

Encourage snaps, drain the revolver-style pistol loaded with bullets, and load new “white” and “black” bullets.

And the woman pulls the trigger.

The muzzle of the pistol remained pointing in a direction that seemed out of sight,

"Gergagagagagagagaga!!"

Something resembling a bullet colored in two colors, black and white, with an odd noise - a bucket of stuff popped out of the muzzle.

And the bullet would have turned in an impossible orbit - pierced the new body.

……………………

The newcomer collapsed, not leaking a single groan, not moving one fingertip at a time.

It's as if he was even hit with a strong general anesthesia.

Alive, but unable to do anything as soon as possible.

The woman simply moved ahead from her wrist and made this happen easily.

"- What's wrong?

He looks down at us, and he calls out.

"Can you pull your hips? Cold sweat flowing? Does your heart palpitate? Are you breaking your heart?

The gaze of a guy who should be doubly blocked by sunglasses and a pair of glasses.

"" Helpless woman and child. "Is that what you're dealing with if you're not?

But it was understandable that those eyes were emitting a cold light.

"I can't talk about people, either."

He sighs hu.

"The shore battleship opponent had no choice but to strike one hand in the run and... scared. I thought I'd die in this < Infinite Dendrogram >. Yeah, even I'm terrified of strong opponents."

Scary, even though I say horrible... the woman's face is cold.

Just cold, looking down at this one.

"That's why I can do that."

And

"That's enough to make a powerless assassin a worn rag."

With the proclamation, he moved.

We tried to get in his way.

But the cloak that covers his body hides his behavior.

Some men throw daggers again, but they are all played with daggers.

That's how he flew something out of his pocket.

That's a sphere with a fuse line.

- Bomb.

Me and my men tried to distance themselves from it.

But the fire on the ignition line is quick and reaches the main body in an instant.

Shortly after, fierce smoke covered the corner of the alley.

It's not a smoke explosion, it's just smoke.

"Don't wander around! [Smokeball] That's it!

The blind eye is the smokescreen for the purpose.

This smoke is going to crush our sight and chase him again.

I found him - it disappeared right into the smoke.

Belly buildup to leave by multiplying the smoke screen enlargement, then this one fits the sole as well.

The moment I thought about it,

A “five” figure popped out of the smokescreen - all of it in the same shape as that woman.

!?

"Fantasy"... No, more advanced illusion!

"Crush the phantom! Throw it all!"

"" "Throw" "

Instruct your men to disturb and throw the poisoned throwing gear simultaneously.

You don't have to aim precisely.

A phantom would slip through, and a main body would prevent it.

If only this simultaneous attack could discern the opponent's body from the phantom.

But the result is something different from what I imagined.

Each of the five phantoms wielded a dagger in an entirely different way, bouncing off all the throwing gear toward themselves.

"All entities," he said!

"Hatred and the art of shadow identity have an entity."

"The Art of Shadow Split"?

That's one of the Heaven and Earth specific jobs in the East, the skills that [ninjas] are supposedly going to use!

And my skills when I was turning into a princess...... well!

Who is he...!

…………

"No, no..."

Signs of werewolving are also transmitted from the subordinates.

That's because I don't know which one of the shadow figures is real.

Which is false and which is true.

With one real and four separate bodies, the signs are exactly the same.

A terrible technique that has no way of distinguishing between real and “phantoms with entities”.

And my men fear the skill of the man who creates such a thing.

I was the only one who could see the number of digits on that level.

If the men knew his level, they would move frightened and ill.

When that happens, my (...) winning eyes disappear.

"Don't be frightened! Push in numbers and face it! Kill them both!

"Yes."

He's under orders, and his men are attacking him and his identity.

Hang in pairs, all in one piece.

Think in common sense, and if you're divorced, you should be inferior to the main body.

Then my men have a chance to win.

Besides, there are things you can do if you stop them moving like this.

That's what I was thinking.

"You have a low level."

"Right."

"No need to expose yourself excessively"

"Shall we not use Arcane Shell anymore"

"Lager."

However, if the lid is opened, it is pushed even in a two-to-one situation, and some groups have already been discussed by one of the two.

An inferior division to the main unit is outnumbered by dealing with two of his men who have met with skill as [assassins].

Unlike me, I have not reached the ranks of senior [murderer], but I have nevertheless completed [assassin] skills.

That's how easy it is...

"Many believe that the ultimate difference with or without Embrio is the inherent skill of Embrio"

"But it's right and wrong in a way. If you have special skills, you can also have Tian if you get MVP benefits for UBM."

"The real difference, I think, is the status… and the“ growth ”correction"

"It is because we receive the correction of < ENBRIO > that the level of < MASTER > is increased faster and the status is increased more forcefully. You can't do it because you're immortal. So the efficiency of growth is too different from that of Tian"

"That's how easily my three years outweigh your ten and twenty years."

Three years?

Are you telling me you've got this monstrous skill in just three years?

"I'm playing witch mountain. So, isn't our training the same as trying to build a tower with a stone pile of fools from you?

"Stone pile of fools... was it the kingdom of Alter"

"Talk about a man trying to build a tower that can also reach heaven with his hands loaded with stones. At the end of the day, it collapses and crushes itself."

"Some people will build towers with their hands loaded."

"Those who have come to super positions are also Tian."

"But if it's a metaphor, it's like we're standing in a heavy machine."

Different foundations in the first place, they said.

That's why people chew their teeth irrationally when they also refer to Embrio as “talent” or “possibility”.

I can't accept it.

I trained and practiced assassinations in the organization for decades from childhood until now, when I was a [murderer].

Do you admit that they are unreasonable?

Can that woman be any better than me?

I take the trump card [Gem-Crimson Sphere] out of the item box.

It's the biggest magic of the senior position [Red Lotus Artist (Pyromancer)], [Gem], which encapsulates the Crimson Sphere.

The range of effects is not quite as wide, but it is extremely powerful.

Now I can hit that woman, too.

Because my men... foolish men, who are two and inferior to one another, are reluctantly limiting their movements.

"Die."

The [gem] I threw was separated from that woman, and it exploded at the center of my men's battle - all wrapped in red lotus.

There was no sound, no explosion, just red light and heat burned down that space.

Women, women's identities, men who were fighting, men who were already driven out of combat, are surrounded by light.

After a moment of stunned expression, his men turned the skin of his face into black charcoal, and shortly afterwards even his bones became black dust.

"My men, at the end of the day, were helpful."

In the red light, that woman also disappeared, all dust of light.

"Hung, I see, even if you are separated, will you have the same light as when the Master disappears"

So I also cracked the seed of the trick when I first dropped my neck.

I saw them all disappear.

All you have to do is get away from here... and find a second princess and wipe her out.

"But that woman has been tricked a long time. Unexpected expenses are also significant. Is the boulder something like a senior position [ninja] in the Eastern secret? But it doesn't make any sense at the earliest. In the end, he went to“ jail ”as a princess killer. hahahahahaha"

Laughing for the first time in a long time at the joy that gushes out, I flaunt a video crystal in my hand that serves as “evidence."

- Shortly afterwards, I had the feeling that something cold was plugged into my body from my back.

"Oh, huh?

The video crystal fell zero from the palm of his hand and crushed and cracked with the high sound.

If I looked down, a dagger blade was sticking out of my chest.

"Yes, a great enemy."

Turning his gaze forward from his chest, there were five of those women lined up there who were supposed to have disappeared.

"Apparently you're getting the wrong information about [ninja], so there are two corrections to the statement"

"The first, [ninja], is a junior position. Senior position is [Upper Shinobi (Greater Ninja)]"

"The first supplement. The job lineage is divided by style, even if you say ninja in one bite. Ninja and secret systems."

"The first supplement II, [ninjas] and [upper ninjas] of the ninja lineage use flashy ninjas. Foreigners thought of NINJA."

"The first supplement, three, I am a job that grew out of the [hidden (on mite)] of a hidden system that lurks in hiding and stirs up enemies."

"- Second, I'm not a senior."

In his ear, the “sixth man" behind him whispered.

"But?

I look back, spitting blood bubbles out of my mouth.

There was a fox face and a woman with sunglasses wrapped around her.

"Yes, it is. I am the“ main unit ”. I used" The Art of Shadow Split "and" The Art of Concealment "on the set with a smokescreen and zero signs. Oh, the whole body has been erased, but if you reuse the Shadow Body technique, it will come out again."

That said the woman pulled out the dagger and I fell to the ground.

A woman with the same face as the other five is looking down at me when I fall.

But there was a clear difference between the woman and the five of them.

There is no sign of a woman.

Even though it is in front of us, even though it exists, the five senses deny it exists.

Deploy multiple bodies with signs and entities, while at the same time completely zeroing the signs of the body.

How could such a craftsmanship be possible......

"Hidden System Super Position [Shadow (Death Shadow)]......"

He told me his own job and... one name.

"I don't mean to be an underworld souvenir, but that's my job and my street name."

"Super job, and...!?"

A super position is the point of reaching a job further ahead of the senior level.

And "Super Killer" is a street name given to a killer who once made himself notorious as "Tian's Biggest Killer."

Even the killer, alias given as the apex of the killer.

"Oh, oh..."

This woman, far younger than herself, preceded me in decades of drilling as an assassin.

It has reached a frontier that only a limited number of people can trace.

As a job, as a killer... even I stand at a peak beyond my feet.

When I find out about it, even more intense emotions and shocks shake me up than earlier.

"Such an intangible reality..."

Tears streaming down my eyes that I thought were dead, by the way.

"Says intact."

The woman seeps slightly irritated and utters words.

"[Murderer], was it? But it's a job that can't be done unless the number of human killings is more than a certain number, right? I tried to kill Eli, and even my men just threw him away as a pawn... I would have turned a large number of people into unspeakable bodies before, but if I hit the wall a little, I would cry. I don't know about that, do you?

I look up into the eyes of a woman who looks down at me.

What was in its eyes was disdain.

I'm not looking down.

Just as much as seeing and despising people with personality problems all over the city, the woman's eyes hated me.

That was the humiliation above all, and I couldn't forgive it.

But if they keep killing me like this, they'll clear up the humiliation.

"Well, it's time for me to pick up Eli. Let him sleep and hide it."

The woman didn't stab me in the stomach, she turned her heel back.

"Ko."

"I won't kill you. It's silly to lay your hands directly on it."

That's what he says. He disappears and tries to walk away.

Speaking of which, I didn't understand for a moment what they said.

It took a little time and I could understand what he said - an uncomparable rage burned me.

- Something to let you get away with.

I take the item out of the item box to avoid being distracted by the guy who turned my back on me.

That's the same as the one I used earlier [Gem-Crimson Sphere].

I wouldn't have thought you had more than two trump cards.

I immediately activate [Gem], throw it like this... and I'll blow him up.

After that, look for the Second Princess and be sure to kill her.

It's as miserable as I can think of, and I kill it.

So I can fulfill the request, but this behavior has nothing to do with the request anymore.

An abominable woman who looked at me like that.

A woman who's taller than me.

I'll trash the stuff this woman wanted to protect.

What face will you look like knowing the princess is dead when she is resurrected?

I imagine the future of laughter, throwing [Gem-Crimson Sphere]

Throw it......

…………

Or my body, my body moves...

……!? …………!!?

Even if I tried to speak, my tongue wouldn't move.

Stupid, I wasn't even shot with that gun like a newbie......

"Oh, yeah, yeah. A type of bullet (...) is an anesthetic bullet, as I showed you earlier. You can do something similar here."

Without looking at this one, the woman pulled out her dagger with one hand and put it up to show.

That was the one that poked me out of the back the other day.

"This dagger, thanks to its skill, flushes a slow-acting paralysis poison onto the blade"

The woman somehow began to politely explain the dagger.

"It's also called [Paralyzed Bee Sword Belspan]... it's an anecdotal gear skill, so I think it's hard for you at a senior level to self-resist, right?

Hey, to...

"I won't put my hands down, but I'll have trouble even if they move. If you don't do anything extra, you just have to fall asleep till the day after tomorrow and get caught by the government constitution."

The woman said this by changing her voice color at the end.

"- If you don't do something extra,"

There was a booted [gem] in my hand.

"Oh wow...!!"

I scream, but I'm speechless.

Watching the hindsight of a woman waving her hilarious hands without looking back at this one to the end,

Direct hit by the Crimson Sphere, activated at close range -.

To be continued
