＜Infinite Dendrogram＞

□ [Brilliant Cavalry] Ray Sterling

After Cashmere left, Luke and the others returned to replace him.

Apparently, after the duel, the obsession between the two disappears... not that it does, but for now, there's no difference in having a party in the future.

By the way, I didn't ask which one won.

Because when I heard it, I had a feeling that the atmosphere was going to rekindle.

After the four of us are together again, we head to the central arena where Tom and Cashmere duel takes place while we keep each other updated.

"So Luke's been specially trained by his brother since that day?

"Yes! Oh, but... it was a hell of a special training"

Luke's expression, remembering something, was more and more so that his last smile could disappear.

Brother, don't throw people's friends into hell.

"After combat training, it was usually a level increase"

"What level is it now?

By the way, I have 100 [Saint Knight], 40 [Brilliant Cavalry] and a total level of 140.

It's time for [Brilliant Cavalry] to be Kanst, but I'm not sure what job to put next.

"I am a total of 290. The main job now is level 40 in [High-Level Obedient Master (Hi Tamer)]. You also kanst [the devil] and [the whore] in the subs."

... more than double!!

The level's swollen again, and I remember before we partied in the King's Capital!

"Even if I deduct the fact that I had a college or something, the tear difference is open..."

"... Luke gets sharply stronger when he looks away."

I don't think so. The next time I take my eyes off it, Kanst...... on the contrary, I'm afraid I'm going to be super.

But I thought [whore]... but apparently he had passive skills to increase the success rate of [charm], and that's what he wanted and took. I don't know because it's Luke's lifeline alongside the Tame Monster. But I don't know.

"This level increase was because I was hunting around a dense area of monsters with Babi and the others using an EXP boost item. There was also a prize you received for a previous Franklin one-party incident."

"Experience Boost Items...... Is there such a thing?"

"No. Normally boosting EXP doesn't go up at a lot of Luke's speed, does it? That would be more of a pulling kite, wouldn't it [reporter]?

Correct Marie from side to side in a way that says, "Experience boosts aren't that dramatic."

"Because I was just free. After the case of Gabella, I kept hunting for insomnia rest for about five days in real time...... As a matter of fact, I still do, Mm..."

"So get physically worked up!? It sucks even in real life on boulders!?"

Luke starts to loosen his head like every other time, so he accidentally sticks it in.

And what's Gabella!?

"Training to work long hours without falling asleep is ok"

"The rhetoric of words has suddenly become suspicious!

Seriously, get some sleep!!

Luke won't be on his face until he declares himself, so it's hard to tell how he's feeling!

"I'm not sleeping either. I've been busy getting ready lately..."

"Ready? Ready to cover today's duel?

"No, not you. Hosted by... Whoa, I can't tell you this yet."

The way I smell it that bothers me......

"Well, fine. But I thought Marie was tired from the time we met again, but you were getting ready for it. I thought it was today's duel or Elizabeth's pageant."

I thought you asked me for something because I was close with Elizabeth.

"You're usually in charge of the other [reporters] for today's duel............ weights. Wait a minute, now what?

Marie grabbed my root and asked as she peered into my eyes. Scary.

"... Azrite when I came back here today... I was also escorting the First Princess of Ultimia and the Third Prince of the Yellow River. That's when I heard a little bit about Elizabeth making out with the prince..."

That's it, Marie glanced over her face with her hands.

"Eli... matchmaking... engagement... marriage... childbirth... hey I think you're still early!

Early is Marie's future prediction.

"Isn't Elizabeth's sister Azrite in the first place?

"Gohoo!?"

You heard my scratch... Marie collapsed patsy on the spot.

"... No, I knew Marie was close to Elizabeth, but how shocked I am"

Then we headed to the arena carrying Marie, who was groaning about something.

◇

When we get to the arena, we go into the box seat we used before and wait for the duel to begin.

Marie is still groaning, but the words were mixed with words that occasionally weren't "Third Prince... Dark Discard... Engagement Discard..." or even related. If it becomes an international problem, stop it because Azrite's stomach is dying.

"And I'm getting engaged, but we haven't even made out yet."

"Ugh... may Eli have eyes on a man"

... Well, if I had eyes to see, I'd be engaged.

Tsanrong was young and human. I don't care how you fall, I think you'll settle for a good shape.... unless Marie darkens Tsanron.

"Well, there's no way we can intervene in a princess and prince pageant, and we'll just have to watch what happens."

"Ugh... Eli..."

Marie took out the sketchbook as she rolled onto the floor and began painting the girl's (possibly Elizabeth's).

... Is this also a ciscon in a way?

"Either that or Lorico"

Nemesis, there are some things I shouldn't tell you.

◇

With just over thirty minutes to go before the start of the main event, I decided to buy some drinks and snacks while I could.

Marie is still unfaithful and Luke and Babi are taking a nap. I also felt like leaving one senior in such a space, so I have Nemesis with me.

Now, walking towards the store, the receptionist at the Central Arena catches my eye.

There was about to be a deadline for bets on the main event that would already start.

As for the odds, Mr. Tom is one or three times the cashmere is five or five times the cashmere. I remember that < super clash > on how to open the odds, but that was another story because it was an odds based on Mr. Figaro's local popularity as well.

This time the difference is open is due to the performance and force analysis of the two.

So far, four fights, Cashmere has been defeated by Mr. Tom.

Cashmere had risen in level during those four fights, but he was hopelessly incompatible with Mr. Tom's proliferative division and couldn't find a winner.

In addition to that, it is also well known that Cashmere herself has a blank this time, and it is the expectation of the majority that Mr. Tom's victory will not waver.

"……… Now"

I'm going to bet because it's a corner, but which one should I bet on?

Tom from pre-information and odds......

- The calculation for dropping the eight necks of the "converted cat mansion”... is already on.

The words of Cashmere just now also catch on.

That wasn't a vanity, at least Cashmere herself was certain.

"Well, this time... this way"

Ultimately, I left it to my own account and finished accepting bets.

To the boulder. It was a smaller amount this time than when Mr. Figaro was.

"... that?

If you check today's bulletin board after placing your bet, it will also show you a combination of semi-events, etc. where you have already closed your bet.

Today I was just distracted by the main event and I lost track of the semi-event.

But when I saw the combination of semi-events, I saw the names there as well.

It says here:

[Fallen Heavenly Knight] Juliette VS [Princess Fu] Wolf Cherry Blossom, and.

◇

When I got back to my seat, the semi-event had already started.

"Chi!! Fly around a little and depressed. No, Giulietto!! '

"The Black Death Orchestra Soul Song" Blackwing Requiem "!!"

The Wolf Cherry Blossom wraps around the exoskeleton of the Special Skills he used when he fought us.

The opposing Juliette was firing a series of magic of dark attributes from the air that did not receive an attack of wolf cherry blossoms.

We are well aware of the robustness of the exoskeleton of wolf cherry blossoms.

But the black sphere of the dark attribute released from Juliette's back wing is dealing steady damage to the wolf cherry blossoms.

Not at all.

The properties of dark attribute magic are versus biological specialization.

Almost none of the objective damage is present and cannot destroy the object.

Instead, they can do damage against organisms by ignoring half their physical defenses.

Seems different if your opponent is wrapped around a junction, a natural enemy, a light, or a magical defense, but if you just wrapped yourself in tough armor, the same goes for bare ends.

In that sense, wolf cherry blossoms biased against physical defense by exoskeletons can be considered compatible opponents for Juliette.

Conversely, as a wolf cherry blossom, your opponent is flying and out of range, even as you set up a good infighting. I only have enough means of attack to jump with sophistication or throw a spear. It naturally takes a delay against Juliette, who flies freely in phraseverg through the air.

Both advantages and disadvantages were clear on both sides of the offense.

"... that's gonna be odds one, two, five, six, too."

Wolf cherry blossoms also have wins.

If you win "Heavenly Kill," the greatest power skill and the depths of [Princess Fushimi], who will be able to decide to compete in one blow, a duel without [Brooch] will be settled with that.

But now I can see that it came off at a time when the fighting was going on.

It's an ambush in the first place, that one. It will be hard to guess from the front.

Juliette says she doesn't use her special skills and is dedicated to dodging and dark attribute magic attacks from a distance.

"I'm used to it, but I'm still only fourth and fifth, and I've done it many times."

"Right. Wolf cherry blossoms have tried“ Black Raven ”many times. Look, if you're fourth, you'll line up with third place cashmere, right?

I was so convinced that it would be a senior's explanation.

"Muscled, that Chemomimi Muscle Shotacon Stalker Woman"

"... have you got more words!?"

"The shard is also a correct name, but it would be better not to say it in front of the person"

Such a duel between Wolf Cherry and Juliet, but the expansion is still always dominated by Juliet.

One factor in this is the lack of much definition of wolf cherry blossoms rushing.

Speaking of which, if Cashmere wins today's duel, Cashmere comes second.

Are you in a hurry because the cashmere on the rankings will be far away again?

But Juliette, the ranker of the war, scrapes the HP of the werewolf cherry blossoms by poking precisely at that gap in motion, which is degraded by its agony.

Eventually, when it reached its limit,

"Dead Eater (Phrase Verg)"!

With Todome, Juliette used her special skills.

Combined Darkness and Wind Attack Magic Skill, Black Tornado.

Taking that direct hit, the werewolf cherry blossoms are breathless...... no!

"That was... that time!

The body of the werewolf cherry blossom that was bleeding in the tornado has been replaced by a doll at some point.

That's a privileged weapon that you used when you attacked us.

"Oh that kind of item, isn't it forbidden to use in a duel?

"No [life-saving brooches], [substitute dragon scales], or consumable recovery items. But you don't get privileged weapons."

Speaking of which, there was also Mr. Figaro's [Closer].

"More of a wolf cherry blossom now... is that it?"

At the end of the senior's gaze, behind Juliette.

There was an exoskeleton removed and a spear - a wolf cherry blossom with a gashadow clot - appeared.

"-" Kill backwards "!!

While activating some active skill - I asked seniors later that it was a skill to enhance damage when attacking from behind - the wolf cherry poked out Gashadokuro.

The spear's power was tremendous, penetrating Juliette from her back, who was dressed in gothic dress armor.

I guess I couldn't avoid it because I was using special skills.

The tornado that was released from Juliette's hands scratches off, and Juliette falls to the stage to lie down.

Shortly before, Juliette grabbed Gashadow with both of those hands.

"-" Farewell Black Darkness ""

Shortly after declaring his skills, the Gashadow Crow pattern is contaminated with black muddy darkness.

Activated is one of the active skills of the Dark Knight lineage, Farewell Darkness. A skill that pairs with the Holy Another Silver Light of the Holy Knight lineage.

A skill that transforms a weapon with its own HP into a weapon of curse for a certain amount of time.

It is possible to increase the power of your own weapon if you have a dark knight lineage that overcomes the curse,

'Shit! He'll do it...!

You can also curse your opponent's weapon to render it unusable.

Gashadokuro, which has been cursed, cannot be used properly even in the Wolf Cherry Blossom, which is the Master. If used, curses such as motion limitations and continuous HP loss fall on wolf cherry blossoms.

Even when I had a mock fight, it was dangerous. If I hadn't used "Holy Another Silver Light," Nemesis would have been cursed, too.

It is an avant-garde build, and [Fushihime] 's werewolf cherry blossoms do not have "Another Silver Light of the Sacred" or curse relieving skills. Consumer items such as [Holy Water] are not allowed to be brought in.

Hence the only way for the werewolf cherry blossoms to deal with this curse... was to let go of their own < Embrio >.

"Chi!!"

When the werewolf cherry blossoms let go of Gashadokuro and tried to get a replacement spear in their hands with Instant Equipment,

Reverse Crusade!

A pitch-black light emerges from the ground - the energy of the dark attributes that sharpen life.

This is the depths of the [Dark Knight] falling under the [Holy Knight's] "Grand Cross".

Wolf cherry blossoms are hampered in their movement while their HP is shredded in the dark running.

In the meantime Juliette took out the sachet-shaped item box with her left hand and tore it apart with the sword of her right hand.

Overflowing from damaged sachets are countless weapons.

All wrapped in black and red aura, cursed weapons.

Juliette collected it, or turned it into a cursed sword by Juliette herself - a bullet.

"Karsd Faranx -"

And Juliette pointed the cutting-edge of the sword of her right hand toward the wolf cherry blossom that sealed her movements in the running stream,

"-Disorder!!"

With the profound proclamation of [Fallen Heavenly Knight] - ejected countless cursed weapons (...)

That's the depths of [Fallen Heavenly Knight], The Karsd Farranks Disorder.

It's a discarding grand move that sets the direction of a bloodthirsty cursed weapon on the enemy and fuels and fires his own HP and MP.

If you want to analogize that sight, a tracked missile.

The cursed weapon draws a disorderly trajectory as if it were a mad beast in blood, but it also eats into the indicated target, the Wolf Cherry Blossom.

"Uh-oh!?"

Wolf cherry blossoms barely jump out of the running stream of Reverse Crusade, trying to cut off one cursed weapon after another with a spare spear equipped with "instant gear".

Strength, or will. Wolf cherry blossoms are chopped into flying weapons, but they shoot down what can be fatal injuries.

Will the fuel curse run out first, or will the HP and guts of wolf cherry blossoms run out first?

In that situation, Juliette at the end of the barrage combines her hands again - taking the "Dead Eater" attitude.

!?

Wolf cherry blossoms have a freaking look on their face that says "Can you afford to use all this skill to shoot a special skill again!?"

But Juliette must be bluffing. Whether it's from cool-time or MP, I don't think I can shoot my special skills again.

But the wolf cherry blossom was distracted by the motion for a moment.

At that moment, a single cursed weapon pierces the belly of the wolf cherry blossom.

It was a gas shadow that was on the verge of degenerating into a weapon of curse.

Or was it too familiar a weapon but difficult to sense the orbit for?

Either way, a blow that could be fatal hits him, and other weapons stand as follows.

And

"Liberation!"

At the same time as Juliette's proclamation - he unleashed the curse that had accumulated inside him and blasted his whole body of wolf cherry blossoms.

◇

As it were, the duel was Juliette's victory.

Since there was also a difference between fourth and fifth place and compatibility, the result itself can be said to be reasonable.

But the offense was very high-level in terms of power, technology, and tactics.

"You were good at using Deuteronomy"

"I think so, too. But Juliette could have lost if she hadn't used the Righteous."

This is the second time I've seen the depths of [Fallen Heavenly Knight]. For the first time, I am defeated after taking it myself in a mock fight.

But that was supposed to be Juliette's "secret weapon".

He also said he hasn't used it before in official fights, with trump cards when fighting top opponents such as Cashmere and Tom.

That's why I can also say that I tested it with a mock opponent who is one of the few rankers.

Of course, he was severely silenced. "What my secret demands is supreme silence. Never put it in the ear of a mistress. I'll make a pact here."

In short, "It's a NISHO! It's a promise!," he said.

The fact that he used such trump cards for his challenger, the werewolf cherry blossom, rather than his top-ranked opponent, would have been quite dangerous.

Wolf cherry substitute perk martial arts and Juliette's depths.

We can say that it was a battle that came with everything we had, where we exposed each other to trump cards.

I applauded the rankers for their fierce battle.

Such a semi-event is over...... Tom and Cashmere's game was about to start at last.

To be continued
