＜Infinite Dendrogram＞

□ April 29th [Holy Knight] Ray Sterling

The day of the meeting when Azrite gathered the rankers of the kingdom and mentioned the war.

We were summoned to Azrite's office.

Not only me, but my brother and Luke... were among the members of the < Death Period > who attended the meeting.

That made me wonder.

I guess I'll keep a flag in my clan that will be needed for this war, I guess.

I can't defend the Fort to my small clan, but it could be.

All you have to do is leave it with someone from Super, for example Mr. Alberto. Alternatively, Marie would be able to survive and escape without being super.

can also be stored in my brother's Baldor.

In order to convey the decision of those flags, I thought I had gathered the members who had participated in the meeting, including myself.

"Ray, I'll leave the flag to you."

So Azrite's words were unexpected.

"... what are you talking about?

It's too unexpected and even delays listening back.

"You're the flag."

"... I don't care what you think, there are other suitably qualified people out there, right? Like my brother, Mr. Alberto."

I really didn't know why you were willing to leave that role to me.

"I Can't Bear."

…………

But my opinion was denied first by my brother.

Mr. Alberto was silent, but he shook his head and indicated his intention to deny it.

"My trump card presupposes self-destruction. And there's no option of not cutting a trump card if you're going to be dealing with a behemoth guy.... the handbills are found out at the pageant, so they'll come for real this time. '

"Mr. Alberto said, 'I consider it inappropriate, too. My abilities are exposed to the public, including shortcomings, in the“ tournament "ahead. The opponent will solidify himself in a compatible person. Chance of being destroyed is high. And the sentiment of the chancellor who sent me out to the kingdom is also unknown. I can't deny the possibility that some kind of trap is set in my unintentional way'."

My brother himself and Mr. Alberto explained why via Luke's interpreter.

They were certainly convincing.

"By the way, no other bear. Mr. Raleigh is a real twat...... absent on business. It's scary later to leave the female fox with the flag. Besides, Lord Figa and Hanya are also prerequisites for self-destruction.... Why is our clan so self-destructive all bear?

My brother said that out of the way that he had just noticed.

Mr. Figaro is laughing, and Hanya is laughing at Mr. Figaro, although he doesn't seem to understand very well.

"... then I'm self-destructive enough."

"Unfortunately..."

It's a skill structure based on the premise of eating damage. It would be inappropriate.

If death is similarly close, there is no reason to choose me instead of everyone in Super.

"Brothers, no, but... there's Marie and the other Quasi people, right?

Perhaps so.

Azrite didn't deny my words.

"Still... you're my choice"

"Why not?

In response to my question, she...

"It was you that inspired me to work with the kingdom."

That's what I said, looking me straight in the eye.

"In Gideon, he overthrew Franklin's plan and helped the heart of the kingdom. You still supported me when I was stubborn at the Calcheratan. I also saw through the plan of the pageant meeting, and it saved my predicament."

That's what Azrite says, walks over to me and Nemesis.

My right hand and Nemesis's left hand were gripped hard by her hands.

"I have my kingdom now because you were there. So in this battle... you are the only ones who can trust the life of the kingdom."

I found the words to be sincere.

But I have a word for her, too.

"... it's not just us. Because there was everyone, including Azrite himself."

Because one of the things she mentioned is that me and Nemesis couldn't have done it alone.

"Yeah. I know. But you're the one who started it."

While affirming my words, Azrite overlaps them.

"And, Ray. If you choose to be strong or weak or compatible, you will lose. Kra... I don't think that makes sense to the King's opponent"

I've put out that spicy pact of reconciliation, Emperor King of the Empire.

It would also be touring some ploy in this war.

"... would you also read that Azrite entrusts it to us?

"It's still good. Wrong or right. I leave it to my heart's choices"

Azrite smiled at me,

"- I can entrust my life without one regret (...). Because you're the only one who does that"

- She made her own, unshakeable choice.

◇ ◇ ◇

□ Currently [Saint Knight] Ray Sterling

In the "Tomb Labyrinth", Igor Ronak, a power suit with no neck... stuck his answer to us.

That day, Azrite entrusted me with the answer to 'Life'.

'Do you need grounds?

Igor Ronak overlaps words as he looks at us.

Seniors became walls in front of me and < AETL Coalition > looked upset looking at me.

Only Mr. Patriot, however, showed signs of convincing over the helmet of the skeleton.

'There are three grounds... no, two'

Standing his finger with a long spear, Igoronak begins his explanation.

'One is an instruction from His Highness. His Royal Highness, a friend of the princess of the kingdom, had read < fort > as a carcellatan. He said it was the best place where there were advantages and disadvantages. In addition, the person in charge of defense is the Moon Club.

That would probably be right.

Neither did we hear directly from Azrite, but my brothers guessed so.

The personnel and location are the best and nothing more.

"But on the contrary, it was said that either" life "or" treasure "would be far from optimal candidates"

Turning to me. - No, slightly out of orientation? - Overlapping words.

"The disadvantages outweigh the advantages. But the choice of your own mind to show. The First Princess said she would make such a choice. To scratch the back of Your Highness's reading."

That's... correct.

That's exactly what Azrite thought... he deposited his' life 'with me.

"And it was Ray Sterling who was named the best candidate. If you had been made to hide in the Tomb Labyrinth, you would have been half-accurate at that point."

…………

To avoid a "verdict of authenticity", silence is passed on that presumption.

But the other person will already be sure.

'The second rationale is the move from earlier. Counter with a bullet. That's the main thing, or I heard they also use flamethrowing from the front line to the enemy formation'

"... you know a lot about me, not even super."

"Definitely the most prestigious senior position (major measure). You are. '

Igor Ronak points at me with his bizarre constructions.

But the finger felt slightly uneven from me.

'I know you. But you haven't tried to come forward since the start of the fight. The only time I came forward was the third attack you were the only one responding to. And as soon as it was over, they were sending me to evacuate behind Barbaroy.'

No way, is that why you switched that display...

Just so that I'm the only one who notices anything unusual when I care about the fragments,...?

How did you know I cared about the fragments... and even used the Appraisal Eye?

'Keep holding back as long as possible. Strange story. Totally different style. Earlier in the [Beast King] battle, he said the accumulation of damage was so important that his people replaced him with shields'

…………

Put my doubts elsewhere, Igor Ronak mentions my own style.

'In the first place, yes. I can't let you die. If it's not life, you can't be caught up in this mammoth maze.

Igor Ronak pointed his finger at me... to the ground.

"The war has already begun. Fighting is still taking place throughout the kingdom at this time. Your people will be fighting too. Even though there are ties in the rules, Tian could get involved. In that situation, do you want to pull yourself into a safe labyrinth?

Igoronak has no neck.

But the other side of the buried head that doesn't move... I felt like I could see the movement of someone moving this.

'- That's a bad aftertaste (...), isn't it?

- There's a way to lean your neck and question this one.

…………

The second rationale is the difference between my stance and the status quo.

By the time I was here, with me and my senior moves, this guy was convinced.

"...... han"

But a senior approached Igoronak one step closer to sheltering me from upset.

"Bella Bella and I were wondering if you could show us a deduction show. Buy you some time?

Buying time?

"You guys are too crushed in a short time to get in the way, right? Armed poverty tells the story, doesn't it?

Indeed, this fourth outfit is a submachine gun and a long spear.

As far as Lupe could tell, it was also not in the category of privileged weapons.

sub-machine guns that seem to have lower firepower than before. Long spear in the dungeon. It's a tiny combination somewhere, and it's obvious that it's weaker than ever armed.

……

What do seniors do now...

'Hey, you must be, Igor Ronak. No, let's call him Team (...) Igoronak, shall we?

"Team......?

Yes. The seniors said, 'You guys'.

As if Igoronak were more than one (...).

…………

Igoronak remains silent in response to a senior inquiry.

That was me earlier... very similar to being alert to the verdict of authenticity.

"Ha! An independent act of armor without contents! Resurrection! An uninterrupted barrage! Metastasis between the first and second! The third time I came out with the fragments sealed! And the temporary transformation of the equipment. It's too versatile. Well, then it's like exposing yourself as operating with multiple people. '

He also noticed a change in fragments.

And I understand her words, too.

Igor Ronak is crazy indeed.

Even so, the ability characteristics are fragmented and not uniform.

Though I thought it was a reward weapon, as far as I can tell in Lupe, I don't use reward weaponry for armor or current weapons.

If it's possible, is it about the kind of Chensaw that disabled that defensive skill?

And it is difficult for Embrio to combine completely different characteristics without any perks and tools.

It even includes heavily burdened spatial transfer skills, which is why it is suspended. Those are substitutes that can finally be handled with special skills, even by Mr. Xuan Yu and Mr. Dam Dam.

That's all versatility. Even if there was some kind of super position, it might still not be enough.

But if, as seniors say, there are multiple skills combined......

'But it's versatile... none of it's a big performance. Especially if it's Super Embrio.

Seniors change the tone of their voices - as they explore - to provoke.

"If our clan's [King of extermination] can resist resurrection from death. [Destroyer] can do it in a second form as long as he shoots the Gatling cannon for extended periods. Any one of them is too weak as Super Embrio."

'... what are you trying to say?

To Igoronak, who returned the question with an unchallenged voice, the seniors......

Can't you see what I'm saying about a pretentious second-rate party?

- He slammed back the spicy provocation of the former villain Roll Clan leader.

"- Shit!

"Stop it!

Responding to seniors' provocations - whilst simultaneously uttering frustrating voices and stopping words - Igoronak shoots and releases sub-machine guns at seniors.

"Ha!"

A senior big shield plays a submachine gun with ease.

But Igoronak steps in with the shooting and tries to stick a long spear into his senior.

"It's a rough move, Noroma!!

Seniors wave the shield of their left hand, shifting the tip of their long spear.

Shortly afterwards, he waved [Normercy] to Igoronak at close range, like a counter.

"- Active! Targeting r!

Like fleeing a senior attack, Igoronak disappeared from the spot in an instant,

- Murder Sensing.

"Ray! Behind you!

- He was showing up behind my back and sticking a long spear in it.

"I'll do it myself!

"Count...!

Take control of the nemesis trying to cut the stock and turn away from the impending signs.

The long spear passes as it plunders the surface of the [VDA] and stands against the floor.

……

At that time, I still notice.

From before dodging, the aim is sweet.

The center of my torso and the steeple were uneven.

That's why I was able to avoid it without scratching my flesh.

Think about it, it was odd from the start.

There was a slight flaw over me.

The same applies when I point my finger at it.

Even the first shooting was poorly collected and the rays were braking.

It's as if your vision isn't fixed.

"Maybe...!

Previous questions connect in a single line.

If this is a mixture of multiple people, as seniors say, and my guess is...

"Guys, give me the [Pleasant All-Purpose Psychotropic (Ericcil)]!

I scream at my surrounding companions while wearing [Stormface].

Everyone, including seniors and Mr. Patriot, who had already recovered from the confusion between that and his reasoning, takes [a healing panacea] immediately.

…… Not good......!

Igoronak swings a long spear at me.

But sooner than that, he kicks the floor hard and jumps forward, switching positions with his senior.

And I put my right arm up...

"-" Hell of a Qi "!!

- In the large hall of the sealed dungeon, he exhaled a black-purple chi.

……

Igoronak waves his spear and tries to pay off the smokescreen, but water on the burning stone.

Regardless, this stuff won't work on Igor Ronak without people inside.

It also doesn't work for other people with the effect of [Pleasant All-purpose Psychotropic].

But it makes sense.

Inside the great hall is filled with black purple smoke.

Temporarily, vision is limited.

'All! Exit from the Great Hall within now...! Take your gaze off Igoronak (...), until you can't see (...)!

"Huh!?

When I skipped directions around, Igoronak showed signs of amazement.

Upon instruction, everyone but Igoronak moves out of the Great Hall.

Even the aisle is distracted and has zero vision, but there is no problem.

We've been through here many times before.

Even if I meditate on my eyes, to some extent my body remembers the directions.

In addition, they dare to move in the direction of fragmentation and stir up.

Looks like Igoronak tried to go after it too...

- I heard a noise (...) clashing against the wall in momentum.

I felt signs of trying to chase us out in the aisle, but I could hear you scrubbing the wall over and over again.

It's as if your vision was not only crushed by frustration, but you're also blind (...).

As if the sight that was around Igoronak until earlier had exited (...).

'Shit...! You did it!

The voice of the guy from the rear was different than when he was calmly stating his guess.

Not only the emotions put in...... but the voice itself (...).
