＜Infinite Dendrogram＞

□ [Saint Knight] Ray Sterling

When the sun went down, I finally got to Gideon.

"... you're behind what I thought"

"Well, if that happens along the way."

Leaving Wang Du, we rode straight to Gideon in silver.

The best thing about the means of travel - flight - is that you can ignore the road and go straight to your destination.

That too. Many means of flight in this world take no space for take-off or landing, such as horsemanship or wind attribute magic.

If so, I've always thought it was okay for the air network to develop more.

But today, I realized why it didn't happen.

"... I didn't expect to encounter a wild pure dragon in the air"

"It's been a long time since we've fought in the air."

Yes, while flying toward Gideon, he accidentally bowled with the pure dragon of the species of the natural dragon.

It was pretty tough, though I managed to repel it alone.

"I've been throwing up all the braces from the outrage..."

"Thanks to you, I got Hell of a Chi."

It was not possible to fight the usual way of weakening him or knocking him in the counter in melee because of a state anomaly. I've solo defeated a pure dragon class worm a little after Franklin's incident, but it was more troublesome than that.

And I understood in this one case. I don't develop an aviation network in a world where those things are flying everywhere.

Anyway, if you're in a trained combat position, you can get caught up in battle and die if you're the average person.

"... oh, I remember"

"What?

"I was talking to Hugo at the coffee shop before Franklin."

"... oh, that one"

◇

The day after the case of the Gozmaids Bandits, when I was in public speaking with Hugo, who had not yet been hostile.

Hugo told me about the Empire's science and technology.

"Is there only three kinds of magic gear: Hugo's human-shaped robot, a power suit, and a tank?

"Oh. In the first place, they said it was two kinds until the owners made [Marshall II]"

…………

"Is something wrong?

"No, I know because the ship is a proprietary patent on Gran Barroa.... no planes?

When I asked him that, Hugo looked hard.

"... you don't. Well, metaphorically... a bird can't be feathered in the Raptor Sky."

"Oh. Plane-related technology is too immature to beat a flying monster"

"That's the thing. Flight speed, swivel performance, and attack capability. In all respects, planes cannot survive in the sky today. Anyway, it's not uncommon for organisms to fly around at supersonic speeds. We can't even talk about it on a half-breed plane."

"... if you hurt your wings or something, you're going to crash."

At least, it would be hard to compete with a pure dragon. One bullet could drop your ability to fly, and from there, ahead could be one-sided.

"If so, should I ride the pure dragon of the Tenryu species as well"

"Though the absolute number of thamed pure dragons is small in the first place. Either way, planes don't exist for that reason."

"Oh well. I thought it would be easier to get to a faraway country with a plane."

"Right. As it stands, the only way to cross to the eastern country is by sea in Gran Baroa or by land in the desert… by foot"

"Walk in the desert... Sounds tough inside."

"Oh.... but I'd love to go to a distant country someday too"

"Right."

◇

I also feel like such a conversation with Hugo was long ago.

"I wonder how he's doing by now..."

"Isn't it still in the Empire?

"If there's a war with the Empire, we might run into each other again."

But somehow, I don't think he's in the Empire anymore.

... That's why I feel like I'm walking in the desert on foot?

"Well, shall we go to the rendezvous point?"

"Uh-huh. Something unexpected is pretty critical."

Tonight, everyone in the clan gathers for a meal, and we should look for a home to play tomorrow and discuss the "tournament" the day after tomorrow.

About enough time to make a promise. Hurry up and you'll make it.

◇

After enough, me and Nemesis arrived at the store we had promised.

The store booking was left to Luke, who had returned to Gideon earlier, but the store was marked 'Dear Death Period'. Perhaps you let me distract you and let me rent it out.

"... it looks kind of noisy."

"It's a clan name, so I can't help it"

When we opened the door, the bell attached to the door made a noise with Karan Cologne.

There was a large round table in the store, with all the faces I saw surrounding it.

"Sorry to keep you waiting, guys"

"Ray, it's critical. Okay?

Marie, who had been drinking earlier, said that while blushing her cheeks.

"Ok, let's start with Mr. Ray drinking wine too...... Aww!?

"He and I, or the majority of the clan, are minors, so weigh yourself in."

Senior Beasley was putting chops in the back of Marie's head like that.

If you ask me, I am a minor except my brother, Mr. Raleigh and Marie.

But you got the chop in the good spot on your head, Marie launches a counterattack. Seniors respond to that, too. Since it is indoors on boulders, I do not use the weapon and < Embrio >, but it is a combination of lockup.

"Master and Mr. Beasley are the same," he said of those two, "this is what you looked like when you saw them before!," "And you don't have to stop..." Fuji and the others talk.

... I wonder if you mean Marie.

I'm a little worried about what kind of master the hell you are and whether you should ask.

Maybe it's not about combat, it's about that thing I used to draw in my sketchbook.

"Mr. Ray, Mr. Nemesis. This chair is empty."

"Over here."

That's what Luke and Babi said and pulled a seat near us.

"Thank you, but we were too late. Everybody get together...... that?

The large round table seats have the appearance of most of the members.

But......

"What about your brother?

I can't see anywhere in the store that noticeable bear dressing.

I don't even see Mr. Laylay, but I guess that guy is also absent this time because he seems to be very busy with real life.

"Your brother was here until just now, and he said, 'I'll pick him up', looking like someone contacted him."

"Who are you picking up...?

"I don't know." Don't tell Kumar. Kumar, who will surprise you later. "

... Surprised?

"They say you can eat first"

"Come on, can I say that? My partner's gonna eat it all."

Like an integra treat.

... like an integra treat!

"Don't worry. It's been a long time since I've eaten. Keep it in a good slow pace."

I see, that would be reassuring... not to say.

Because even Slow Space hasn't said anything about 'suppressing the amount you eat' at all.

"I'm not forgetting that Kumanisan ate all the à la carte while I was logging out at the welcome party on the day I hatched...... I'm not going to retaliate"

"... don't you have it pretty much at the root at the point where you remember that?

Food grudges are horrible or something... well, think about other people precisely and eat them too.

◇

That's how we enjoyed the meal, while we were discussing it.

I had heard from everyone about the hope of a home base, etc., but roughly summed up, it was conditions such as' there is a private room '(all),' there is a large bathroom '(women's group),' there is a large room where everyone can gather at meetings, etc. '(me, seniors and Luke),' there is room to let the big monsters go '(Luke and Xia),' there is a dining room '(Nemesis),' there is a pool '(Marie and Babi).

There are a lot of conditions attached, but there are no conditions that are too special. This is going to clear the merchant's mansion, etc. that was let go in today's situation yesterday, and with a budget, it's going to be found without so much difficulty.... conditions at an impossible level without a budget though.

You'll be looking in this gideon for a while.

Wang Du had also looked at it, but the property in a good location with only the capital was quite filled. Or some religious group clan or fan club was buying up land everywhere.

That and the King's Capital would be based close to that religious group and the largest PK clan in the kingdom, and I wanted to avoid it because it was going to bring in some trouble.

... Azrite was also convinced that 'that's not the way to go', which is the scary part of the reason.

So nearly an hour later, the bell at the door made a noise, and I heard a voice I was used to hearing.

"Yikes. Sorry to keep you waiting Kumar '

"Brother. Wait... Huh?

As usual, the bear's wearing brother came into the store, and we were surprised.

It wasn't even as wide as it was, but I'm cleverly twisting my body around the door with that big dress.

It's just that we weren't surprised by the way our brother came in, against the people who followed him in.

"Hey, sorry to bother you."

"... hehe, long time no see"

Following his brother - Mr. Figaro and Mr. Hannya showed up.

"Mr. Figaro! Are you feeling better!

Shortly after that Mr. Hannya case, Mr. Figaro was hospitalized for worsening illness.

I haven't even seemed to log in for a while since then... but this means I'm here now...

"Oh. I'm totally better now...... I'm not. But I feel very good."

It was a rare vague response and expression for Mr. Figaro.

And Hanya next door looks a little troubled, too.

... No, with all the trouble... Is it lit?

"... Actually, every time I see her face in real life, I'm thrilled and I have a heart attack. That streak prolonged hospitalization."

... What's that?

"My dear, I still can't even be content to touch you. I want you to forgive me."

"Yeah, but I can see that's a sign of love from you too... Besides, we can stare at each other for as much as we want..."

"Fuyuko..."

"Vincent......"

... Um, haven't you suddenly made a world of two?

Besides, I don't know if we can call each other by real names. I'm still fine because I'm renting out here.

"... after a while, I became a terribly stupid couple."

"............... is that Figaro now"

A senior said that with a very complicated look on his face, looking like Nemesis had been somewhere spooked.

"... brother"

"I was surprised, too, bear. They said they'd been seeing each other in real life, so we made progress over there... did we?... ma, that's why these guys are like this bear for now '

"I don't care what you say... for now... congratulations?

I said the words of celebration and applauded them for now.

Many other members didn't know what to do with their faces, but they applaud.

"Thanks!"

"Thank you. So that's why we're here..."

Hanya received the applause with a full smile and Mr. Figaro also met before...... he began to say the main thing that came here.

"Ray, I want your clan, Death Period, to join me and Hanya."

I used to hear that Mr. Figaro and the others might come in when they returned.

And now, it seems, the time has come.

"Do you mind?

"Yes, of course!

Mr. Figaro offered his hand and I shook it.

Thus, it was officially decided that Figaro and Hannya, who were super, would join the Death Period.
