＜Infinite Dendrogram＞

□ ■ [Eltrame] - Commercial block

There are several shops on the sandy luxury passenger ship [Eltram].

To enjoy shopping even on long journeys, or to buy equipment that has become necessary, such as clothing to wear at parties on board or in pools of onboard equipment and training gyms.

It should be noted that there are multiple stores in industries that handle the same type of goods. Jewelry, clothing, cosmetics, beauty salons, souvenir shops, etc. each exist in at least two stores at a time.

This is due to the passenger population.

Essentially because there is a large opening in assets between passengers in the first and third class rooms and because of their different nature as stores.

It is normal to have two or three different digits of the product, so I have separated the store from the beginning.

Even if you're on the same boat, you live in a different world.

Most customers know that, so they stay away from the different stores where they lay from the start.

"... uh"

Therefore, the appearance of a girl with a scratch on her face looking at a luxury boutique was very noticeable.

It's like a boy watching a trumpet in a show window.

The girl with a scratch on her face - Faye of Goblin Street - looked out at the boutique looking so luscious.

He then checked the contents of the item box in place of his wallet and shook his head to mourn.

"... what are you doing, Faye"

"Ah. Niara."

Seeing how she was like that, Niara, her companion, called out.

"What do you do with evil noticeably? Besides, you and I are in the middle of a search entrusted to us by the owner, right?

"You know... But those dresses and all are so nice, and they have an onboard ball tonight..."

Faye exhaled a worrying sigh.

"Oh that kind of dress, if I could dance with the owner at the ball...... sounds sooo romantic"

"Give up for three reasons."

To Faye, who speaks of his aspirations, Niara said pishari with three fingers up.

"First of all, the ball is included in the price from the beginning for passengers in first class rooms, but passengers in third class rooms like ours need to buy additional tickets. But I don't have that kind of money."

"Ha..."

"Two, I don't have the money to buy a dress as well. I don't have enough savings to lend you the purchase cost, either."

"Gigi......"

"Three, we don't have time. We haven't even found what we're looking for yet."

"Gugu..."

Niara goes on to say the words to how Faye groans at Ga Row.

"There is the word 'no time to be poor' in the Idioms of the East"

"What does that mean?

"No rest for the wicked in English. We can't afford to go to the ball, both financially and temporally."

"Tough..."

Faye dropped her shoulders wide and depressed by Niara's words, which had no objection.

At the same time, there was a distracting sound from its stomach.

"... if it's about lunch, I'll give you a luxury."

"Thankyou! I knew Niara was the best of us and a rival!

"Yes, sir."

It should be noted that rivalry is the story of love sheathing around Eldridge.

"Then lunch is the best thing on this ship in the rumored Outlook Restaurant..."

"Don't get on with it. It will be on the cafe terrace for third class rooms."

Tickled with chops on Faye's head, Niara walked out to the cafe terrace.

Faye also followed Teco Teco and later, holding his head down.

◇

"Momogu... I feel comfortable..."

With Sandwich on his cheek on the cafe terrace, Faye said so with a restful look.

"Don't talk while you eat. You're behaving badly."

Niara, who was eating the salad carefully with a fork, said so with caution.

"And I'm finally losing my neck... If I stay like this, I'll die of starvation and I'll be Despena one day..."

Niara thought it was a big deal, but we understand that our financial difficulties are at a level that can never be negligible.

"Out of the question, maybe < Infinite Dendrogram > is going to be in a lot of financial difficulty. Raw saying that even in real life...... there was an acquaintance"

"Ha... You used to eat a lot of delicious food and fine goods. The last time I ate luxury goods... it was a delicacy that was transported from the harbor when the Wangdu blockaded."

As I miss it, that's what Faye said.

It should be noted that taking away that delicacy made them feathers that could be devastated by Laylay, but they don't know it.

…………

Fumi Niara looked at the slip of the cafe and sighed in worry.

"That's what I did, Niara....... ㇵ Huh! You don't even have money for dinner here!?

"I do. But I'm worried that the owner feels responsible for this dilemma, which also struggles with daily meals."

"Uh..."

Faye is also convinced by Niara's words.

"Recently, the owner has been showing it to his sorry face."

"Right."

"And then it's gonna be so lame."

"It's just you."

Piscilli and Faye's head again, and Niara exhales.

"I'm sure it's hard now compared to the peak of the year, but the problem is that the owners are carrying everything into their own hands as their responsibility. Even with some bad rounds, it's not like the owner had a problem with himself. And yet the owner is blocking in 'cause he couldn't...'"

"... Didn't Niara say 'karma' or something before?

"It's the Aya of the Word. Horn to horn, I want this job to succeed, break the current situation, and restore confidence to the owners."

Faye nodded strongly, too, at Niara's words.

"Right! And the momentum is goaling in! Dendro, I'm getting married!

"... I'm not willing to give it to you, but is it really Dendro marriage in the first place?

"There must be. Somewhere in the world, Dendro should still be married!

"... I don't think it's that frequent either"

In the Love Fight Festival being held in the kingdom, a group of couples is born after one incident, but that is another story.

"To do so, we need to find the targets quickly..."

"You're not on it yet, are you?

"... that's possible, but tomorrow at noon we will arrive in Dragnomad. I don't think this is going to happen near the knees of the Cardina Congress. And it's a coincidence that we got information, but over time, the public authorities will get their information."

"Or maybe you've already given up. In that case, I will give up and sail again.... I knew I wanted to leave the ball."

"So you say you can't..."

"Beautiful Bambina and Signolina there! Do you want to be at the ball?

Unexpectedly, the conversation between the two didn't sound familiar... so the voice of an unusually pleasant man pinched.

Niara looks at the man in pure surprise, along with the alarm of "how far he has been listened to".

And we were all out of line.

"Wow..."

There's no point in Faye accidentally leaking words like that.

The man wore a shirt with a big open chest and makeup on his face... he was somehow dressed like "Here Comes the Softie," "Here Comes the Visual" etc.

It is an outfit that we do not see so in Dendro.

"If you want to attend the ball, Me should be able to help you. Come on! Actually, I have extra tickets for the ball!

Even Dendro could be described as an extremely rare situation because such an opponent would dictate to a single ticket handicap.

"I don't know, Bambina. Why don't you join me at the ball tonight as my dance partner?

The soft guy says that with Wink, but they're both this type...... I don't have a hobby for soft Visual Italians sometimes.

The two preferences are intelligent and wild, a strange hybrid type.

Eldridge specifically.

"I refuse"

"Atashi and I are both in the middle of something. Why are you so upset?"

I therefore said no to Bassari.

"Wow, that's a shame. I'm jealous of a man who can make you think!

The soft man flaunted his shoulders with overaction, but his expression didn't look particularly shocked either.

Or maybe I'm used to being shaken.

"You've been an unscrupulous invitation. Let me at least give you this ticket to apologize. Ha-ha-ha! Nothing to worry about. Come on! Yeah, I guess I should use that because I have some dresses for the ball to rent, too?

That's what the soft guy said, putting tickets on the table.

"No, to receive..."

"I did it! It's a ticket to the ball!

Niara tried to poke back, but earlier on Faye was thrilled to have the ticket in her hand.

"Ha ha. Bye, Chao."

The soft man left the cafe terrace with a throwing kiss on his chi.

I couldn't return the ticket after all, and the two dropped off a soft man as it was.

"I'm getting tickets!... but he was weird."

"... Faye. Think a little more. Eastern idioms also have 'nothing higher than free'. We could get into some trouble later, right?

"But it's a bargain. Now we can get out of the ball with the dress rental!

".................. ha"

Niara sighed, saying it seemed useless. The idiom "Buddha in the Ear of a Horse" also passed through the back of his brain, but not in his mouth.

Anyway, it's true we got tickets like 'Peony from the Shelf'.

(... to be honest, I wasn't attracted to the situation called 'Owners and Balls' either)

Inside, Faye's desire was also that of Niara. Niara was just trying to be calm.

"Anyway, this matter is also reported to the owner, right? If the owner wants to join, let's get out.... Speaking of which, how many tickets do you have for that?

Assuming it were two pieces, we could go into a training ground with the owner who would join us.

"Three slices."

"That's just fine.... three?

That's a funny number, Niara realizes.

Two pieces will tell. Because there were two people here, Niara and Faye.

I can tell by four sheets. Because in addition to the two of us, we assume the number of people who think of each of us.

But three. Now it's as if you knew 'two thinkers are one person'.

"Isn't that for that soft bastard? I'm sure he only had three."

"... but if you were to use it for later numbs, wouldn't you give it all away?

Or were there occasionally three suitably handed over?

But there was something else about Niara that bothered me.

"And that man, you feel like you recognize him somewhere..."

"Huh? That's weird. Once you see it, you don't forget that, do you?

"No, just my face. It's like I saw it somewhere... And for the passengers on this ship... his clothes were cheap (...)."

Low performance as an item of equipment, and yet the materials are not luxurious.

The design was pretty good, but it's just shirts and jeans. Such a substitute that you might even be able to buy it in bulk.

Not much for people to wear like they have many expensive prom tickets.

"... Niara looks more like a bandit than a bandit."

"Tell me your observation eyes are sharp.... Whatever, including that, you talk to the owner"

Niara thought with trust that the owners would know what they couldn't judge.

"Okay! Then I'll look after the rental dress!

"... so I told you that was after I got the owner's permission"

■ [Eltrame] On board

(What's going on, not at all...)

When the two members were having a conversation like Conto at the cafe, Eldridge was sitting on an unpopular staircase close to the freight block.

(Even if the roundabout is bad, there is about...)

He's leaning down, making a weak noise inside.

That is due to those who looked around…… and found the result.

([Prodigal King] Manigold isn't the only one. [Princess Steel "Full Metal Princess"] Isara, one of the finest starters in Cardina. Rumor has it you've completed that [Murder Princess], Hugo Receps. Besides...... < super (...) > is the other one (...))

Eldridge nods at why so many big names come together in a place where he wants to do his job.

Once Eldridge might have made it strong to "still let it do it," but it's only too much of a burden for Eldridge now that he's also drastically reduced his clan power after losing.

(Why. Why are there so many militants on board? No way, there was something extremely important about the information I didn't get...?

That was the right answer, but there is no way Eldridge would know what it is right now.

Eldridge had a direct communication device that he supposedly handed out to customers, because Eldridge doesn't have the price to pay for expensive information today.

Some of the information that was the reason I came to this ship was not bought at the bar, but was accidentally obtained during an interview at the bar.

…………

Continuing to suffer catastrophic and polished inquiries and a prior analytical power tells.

Obviously, this ship is a danger zone.

If it's going to happen, we should get off at the next berth without taking anything.

"... if I could do that, I wouldn't have a hard time"

But if you don't succeed in your work here, you won't be able to turn your neck anymore.

This is a last chance to unlock the clan's financial difficulties in the current situation, which is less than the maximum number of parties.

Most importantly, the target of the key job… I still don't see him.

(What if this job ends in failure...)

Let's announce the dissolution of the clan to the two of us then, Eldridge was so prepared.

"............ hmm?

Eldridge accidentally learned a strange feeling and did his gaze in a certain direction.

It is a huge door visible from the sitting stairs of Eldridge...... a door in the freight block.

The cargo block is a huge vault in itself and loaded with item boxes inside. The total volume of the contents of the item box is considered to be greater than that of this ship, allowing for the transport of more than real freighters.

Thus, whether it be Cardina or Gran Barroa, most passenger ships are in fact freighters.

…………

Eldridge watches the doors of the cargo blocks jiggly.

Strange signs I feel from across the door. I'm uncertain about being held back by a thick door, but there are signs that something is exploring the perimeter.

Eldridge sets the Greater Takeover on both hands and pays attention to the door in a battlefield position.

That's how a minute went by...... how long the signs across the door could have gone away.

(Are you out of your mind... or were you even an intruder in the freight block)

There are naturally large quantities of supplies in the cargo blocks and they are immense property.

Naturally, if you go into stealing, it is your biggest goal.

But Eldridge doesn't think about taking away the goods from the freight blocks.

Besides, if you want to take the cargo in the item box, you have to sort it out and move it to your own item box, or you can just grab each item box and run away.

I don't know how many fierce guys are finally doing. In this situation the former don't have time and they are too short of numbers to execute the latter.

What is more, he is stuck in the middle of the desert where he took it here and fled.

Except with a ship, I don't have that kind of money in Eldridge right now.

"... in the first place, it's not for me."

Unlike the bandit lineage that sneaks in and steals, Eldridge's skills, which are [robbery kings], are focused on taking them from the front.

So if something happens, the alarm will go off immediately.

In addition, even bandits are not sufficiently proficient in higher level fays, and the alarm still goes off.

([Bandit King] I guess not.... Speaking of which, there was a national treasure theft rumored to have been committed by [Bandit King])

Pearls of national treasure in the Yellow River... A sealed < UBM > was stolen and it was scattered by Cardina causing disturbances everywhere.

Rumors - the truth - of whether the bad guys in this are [Bandit King] are running fruitfully.

(Pearl...? I'm not interested (...). Getting such a hard substitute won't solve the financial difficulties of Goblin Street)

'Even if we get it and take the deal to Congress, we will end up being robbed by Sephiroto ourselves, the masters and criminals of the kingdom,' Eldridge thinks.

I don't even know who would handle such a nasty product if I sold it in the back. It hasn't been long since I've put my roots down in Cardina, or I haven't even been able to get my roots down.

(... well, I guess I won't even be touring the beads like that. There's never going to be a bead on this ship)

Unexpectedly, the reality is that "no way," Eldridge lifts his hips and walks away from the side of the cargo block.

The signs I felt inside the cargo block were being driven into a corner of my brain as irrelevant things that I didn't have to worry about.

◆

It should be noted that Eldridge made his way to the rendezvous place with the two and received a plea by Faye (and Niara) that he wanted to "attend the ball".

And he admitted, "Oh, I don't mind," that he wanted to put through a little bit of the ambiguous status quo and the hopes of the two people who were just struggling.

To Niara, who can't hide her rejoicing Faye and joy, she said, 'Did you want to go to the ball so badly? Glad you admitted it,' Eldridge relieved a little, not knowing why they were happy.

To be continued
