＜Infinite Dendrogram＞

□ [Saint Knight] Ray Sterling

"What's wrong?"

"What's the matter?"

Me and Nemesis were worried as we poked each other in the table at a liquor store in the Adventurers Guild.

I kind of feel like I've been troubled since yesterday, but I can't help it because the wall of troubles is coming next.

"There's too much of anything..."

"But you can't have it..."

What's bothering me and Nemesis is the window screen I'm opening.

It was the window of the item in your possession, but it is not the item that matters.

This is the column of possession attached to part of the screen.

There were as many as 80 million lire (...) displayed there.

Needless to say, a huge sum of money, 800 million yen in Japanese yen.

Well, how did I get all this money?

That comes from the crusade report of the Gozmaids Bandits, an end that came to the Adventurers Guild.

◇

Luke, Marie and I broke up. I showed my face to the Adventurer Guild in the morning and proceeded to receive the bounty.

Not only did I show my MVP gear this time, but I also needed answers to various other questions and explanations of the situation.

They were done strangely long and thoughtfully.

I thought it would be more cumbersome than the proceedings at the Knights, where I just had to sign round the paperwork options, but I also answered Kittin and from one to ten.

Just lay low and tell the truth that Hugo, who was accompanying him on the situation, was the < master > of the Empire of Drife, the hostile nation of the Kingdom of Alter.

As a result, the crusade was granted and the bounty was paid.

I was like, "If I see Hugo, I'll have to give him half. No, but the only thing I defeated was [the Great Necromancer] and the post-merger [Gozmaize], and he had more MVP gear because I got it..." etc.

What blocked my thinking like that was a broken fortune of 80 million lil placed in front of me as a bounty.

- What the hell is this?

- 80 million?

- Not 800,000 or 8 million?

- Eighty times [Gardranda]?

Such confusing thoughts filled my brain, but the receptionist immediately explained.

Originally set by the Adventurers Guild, the bounty for the Gozmaids Bandits was about 3 million lil each for about 10,000 members.

Still, they say it's rather less given the scale and power of the war.

In fact, those who have previously gone on a crusade against the Gods Mays Bandits are in return.

That's how the Gozmaids Bandits didn't fit in for it, and before that, they were also recognized as terrifying opponents to get involved with.

I guess there was also a high risk that every time I failed, a kidnapped child would be killed, but there was no more party to lay hands on.

However, there were those who did not say yes because they would not defeat anyone.

It is the surviving family of the child who became the victim, and the Earl of Gideon who governs this Gideon.

Sometimes this city of Gideon was rich and there were many bourgeoisies in the children's families.

I paid the ransom, but there were a number of people who only returned the child's body.

They put money on the bounty into the Adventurer's Guild that they wanted such people to at least take their child's revenge.

He also said Count Gideon had strong animosity towards the Gozmaids bandits who would raze the territory and, if it were to come true, wanted to set off on a crusade using the force of the territory.

Moving troops against a Ghozmaids bandit opponent lurking near the border, however, cannot be carried out because it stimulates its eastern neighbour Cardina.

Count Gideon had a grudge and at least wanted the outstanding party to take the Gozmaids Bandits up the bounty from the Count's personal property.

The result of those stacks is this 80 million lil.

"Well, nobody's ever moved."

This amount will be a lot of people running around dreaming of grabbing a thousand dollars. Especially since it's almost no-risk only to say so.

"Failure reduces the chances of survival of the children each time, so it was a policy not to show you the arrangements except for those who would be judged" if this person "by the Alliance Master. Only for those who will be able to fix it with certainty…"

Didn't you pass on information to prevent the situation from getting worse?

Though I don't know the right or wrong decision.

There is a verse where the first priority was that the policy should not overlap with failure.

I'm just narrowing it down.

Different digits of battle, and Mr. Figaro's class would have done it easier than mine.

"Today we will be hosting an event in the Central Arena, at which time we expected to bring together outstanding people from both inside and outside…"

He said he was after an excellent approach to < master >.

As a matter of fact, it looks like they were gonna pull it off within yesterday in anticipation of that, too.

"So yesterday you destroyed the Gods Maze Bandits because of something really unexpected..."

Well, in short, it was me and Hugo, who came out of the side all of a sudden while I was holding my hand, and somehow I knocked them down, he said.

That's unbelievable. Don't get asked all sorts of questions.

Ultimately, it looks like the [purple grudge walking armor gozmaize] I had turned out to be the deciding factor for proof though.

◇

This huge bounty could have been a problem in front of me, both in the raven and in the corner.

"First, I have to meet Hugo somewhere."

"Oh, no."

Hugo wrote in a letter that he would give me everything, but I just can't get this much money without consulting him.

Sometimes I decide at my discretion in the Knights' Stuff.

I don't know if I'm logged in because I haven't asked for any contact information to contact me, and I missed signing up for a friend.

I should have.

"Whatever it is, it's not until you talk to Hugo about where this big money is going."

I'm in trouble with the money, though!

"That horse undead's original bounty seems to be a million. Wouldn't it be okay to spend that amount?

"... I see"

Sure looks fine then.

But a million.

That [Gardranda] bounty is the same amount, and when I can spend it all, it's already enough money.

But even with the money, you don't know what to buy.

Equipment is still early to be new due to gearability level issues.

Accessories if you insist, and... weapons.

"... the calculation of the affair?

"No, I'm not. You see, Hugo also said that Maiden has the skills to gain when he fights while still in human form."

"Sure, I told you"

"So it's the weapon you use and the weapon I use when you're human form."

"... I see, don't need it"

Explaining, Nemesis nodded whether he was convinced or not.

"Um, it's a weapon Ray uses besides me. We have to be sure. About the time I saw my wife!

... is that so important, it is.

Oh, yeah. If you want to go to Mr. Alejandro's store, finally,

Don't you think, "I'll pull the crap again, Ray?"

"HAHAHAHA, what are you talking about, Nemesis? I'm a man of reflection."

"Ho, right. Then look at this dialogue and say it."

".................. sorry"

Ugh, that certainly wouldn't work if I pulled a prize other than the equivalent or [permit] again.

But there are also hits like Silver and Luke's [Chanting Gloves], so I have a dream,...?

"Is that it?"

On his way to Mr. Alejandro's shop, he saw a familiar silhouette in the square adjacent to the central arena.

At first I thought it was my fault or I missaw something similar... but as I approached I knew it wasn't a mistake to look at.

Black hair bristled all over the body, taller upper back than people, swollen silhouette front, back, left and right, shorter hands and feet.

It's swarmed by kids. It doesn't matter how you look at it, it's in a bear's attire.

"Ooh, very popular Kumar! I feel like I'm coming to Starkumer!

He was our brother.

…………

That bear is definitely my brother.

But my brother was mistaken for a performance or mascot because of a place called Central Square, and many children had made him soft.

"There's no foot trail, Kumar! Oh, it's good to climb, but I'll be careful not to fall down, Kumar!

"... what are you doing, brother"

Crowded by a large number of children, he climbed up and spoke to his brother, who was evolving athletically from a mascot.

'Mm, calling me your brother... oh, isn't that Ray, Kummer!

Respond with your hands up, but it's like being intimidated by a bear because of its appearance.

And I don't call you "brother”.

I never even called him that when I wasn't stunned by my brother.

"It's been a long time since I've seen Kumanisan."

"Hello Nemesis too Kumar"

My brother waves slowly with a patter.

By the way, it's slow because the kid hanging on his arm doesn't fall off.

"Still, you're very popular. I was surrounded by children when I met him in the capital."

"Kumar because wearing a mushroom is rare"

"It's rare."

"But I don't wear Kumar much else. The worst kind of equipment, Kumar. '

"Really?

'... think about it. Just put this on and fill all the gear slots except the weapons and accessories.'

Oh, well, that's unpopular.

"What a handful of kummers can wear a performance that can cover it. Besides me, I don't know five people who wear it all the time, Kumar."

"... there are four of you"

Five to go with my brother. You're a squad hero.

No, you used to do that (...) too, brother.

"What does that mean, too?"

Nemesis reacts to what I recall.

No, it's not a big deal.

Once upon a time, I was just talking about my brother appearing on a feature show as a member of a squad hero.

'... I'm not sure what you're talking about. From the common sense of that world I was getting from Ray, isn't that a big deal? Or wasn't my brother originally a fighter?

You're right, middle school and high school were students and martial artists.

So, when I was in elementary school, I was a child actor and singer.

Talk about an additional warrior frame for a squad hero at that time, being promoted as the sixth.

I don't know the details because I stopped when I was tempted.

"... Kumanisan, who are you?"

No, he's my brother, isn't he?

"Is my brother here to watch Gideon?

'Exactly, Kumar. I'm here to see the game of Lord Figa of Lord Dachi, Kumar.'

Lord Figa...... Mr. Figaro?

Were you friends?

"Well, maybe I'll see you at the venue because I'm gonna watch the game, too."

"Huh? Ticketed bear?

"Oh. My people took it"

That said, I'll take the ticket I got from Marie out of the item box and show it to my brother.

"Oh, box seat Kumar. Take it well...... hmm?

After a glance, my brother keeps an eye on the ticket - the part of - closer.

"What's the matter?"

"The Bear That Sees This"

Then my brother also takes his own ticket out of the item box.

I checked it and it says L-001.

This L is the box number, and 001 seems to be the seat number in that box.

By the way, my ticket is L-004.

"Same number in the box?

Different seat numbers, but the box was the same for me and my brother.

"Awesome coincidence Kumar. This is Kumar who can watch the game side by side. '

"It's such a coincidence."

"Maybe Ray's people were buying it at the same duff shop as me, Kumar."

I see. Then no wonder it's the same box seat.

"Still, I've just been in Dendro during this time, and I'm happy to be friends with Ray already, Kumar, as my brother"

My brother takes the handkerchief out of the box and cries and imitates it as it hits the eye part.

... No, you're not getting anything out of there, are you?

"Besides, it looks like you've had a big adventure in this short period of time to see your gear."

I feel my brother set his gaze on his armor and boots - [Xuan Zhuan Guldranda] and [Purple Grievance Gozmaize].

"Well, there was a lot going on. I'd like to talk about that area... but in this situation, the long story is on the boulder."

My brother is still surrounded by children, and even as we speak, my brother remains rubbed.

'Right. Yes, children! Mr. Bear is about to go, Kumar! Kumar to give a treat to say goodbye'

That said, my brother takes a ton of sweets out of the item box and starts handing them out to the kids.

The children rejoice and say thank you to their brother and leave in turn.

"... you were doing it in Wangdu."

"Huh, a must-have bear when moving in this dress guru"

Then you can take it off... you can't.

That contents is my brother's face.

"Yes, not with a mask or a mask"

"I don't like that suspicious outfit."

... you think the bear isn't suspicious?

"Why don't you dress up as a squad hero with the pestle you used to take?"

"Nah, there's a specialty clan, so it's a confusing bear."

I'm here... squad hero.

Now while we were talking like that, my brother finished handing out sweets, and the children who were in the flock were also dispersed.

I was dispersed.

"Hey, there's something left."

"Right, Kumar."

When I saw it, there was something still snagging near the top of my brother's head.

I'm not a human child.

Hares, palm seals, and other creatures that deformed small animals like that snap into the head of the dresser.

I don't even look like that mascot from the start when I see it on a set with my brother, but of course that option isn't inherently about my brother.

I wonder how long you've been stuck with this little animal.

I guess it's not a monster because it doesn't show its name overhead......?

"Excuse me."

And I was called out of flanking there.

Seeing, there stands one woman there.

He's about his early twenties in appearance, and he's usually a fantasy-looking gear in his outfit, but the atmosphere is somewhat secretarial.

And there's a crest on the back of my left hand, so I guess it is.

"Our behemoth has caused you trouble"

"Behemo? Oh, is this the girl"

Behemoth, it should have been one of the Behemoth readings that appear in the Old Testament.

I wonder if this person is the master of this.

"Look, there's a bear for you, young lady."

That said my brother is a hare over his head...... he tries to get the behemoth down but he still doesn't try to stick around.

Young lady... is that a female?

"XD"

Behemott squeaks and sticks around again.

Looks like I've had enough on my brother's head.

"Behemot, get off. It's time to go. You won't make it. I have to get in early because I'm in a stand-up seat."

"... gtg"

Behemott jumped off his brother's head and jumped into the chest of the < master > who picked him up.

"Now, if you'll excuse me"

That said the woman returns her heel.

"Oh, wait a minute, bear"

My brother calls her off like that and hands her the treat he took out of the box.

"Gift Kumar. Eat for two, Kumar"

"... thank you"

"thx"

That's how Behemot and his < master > left.

She said what the stand-up seats were like, so maybe she headed for the Central Arena event too.

"But your brother is hot for little animals as well as kids."

"Small animals?

When I said that, my brother snapped his neck somehow.

You're not big. It's not a bear.

'Mm-hmm. Ma, in the end, it means you're hot on kids, Bear. I knew bears were very popular Kumar'

"Yes, sir."

I thought you liked it when I said I had no choice but to hide my face.

"But Kumar hesitates to wear other clothes because bears are too popular"

"There's more of you!?"

"A bear that just wears MVP benefits is not enough with fingers on both hands"

"So much!?"

Should I be surprised to have just that many MVP perks or should I be surprised that they are worn.

My brother really doesn't have a problem with stories.

"Then go away and talk slowly Kumar"

"Right. Nemesis is coming too -... what are you mocking?

Nemesis had somehow stood up to the occasion.

Speaking of which, one day they were silent.

Nemesis somehow... looked jiggly in the direction that Behemott and his < master > had walked earlier.

"What's up?

"... no, it's nothing. Probably because of my mind. I was taking Embrio."

I wonder what you care about?

"Hey, what are you two stopping for, Kumar?

"All the while, don't let Kumanisan wait for you. We have to go."

"Oh."

Me and Nemesis walked out and decided to go into some store with my brother.

The store was told we could make up our minds, so Nemesis wanted it to be the same sweet store as yesterday.

... I guess I'll eat as much as I want again.

◇ ◆

"Are you satisfied, Behemott"

"lol"

"That was good. That bear is cute, you said you wanted to hug her. I don't think so."

"nvm"

"Really? Well, I hope another hope comes true in watching today's game (...)"

"yup"

"I hope it's strong, but this country's super"

"Hype"
