Over The Infinite

Episode 11: A Still World

-1 -

"............... here"

I woke up. The place was a good place to see.

I know too much and it just seems like a dream. But he tells me that the feeling his whole body conveys is not a dream.

I look up at the ceiling, wake up and look over the room, and all the confusion grows.

"My room...?

It's not a cranhouse room in a labyrinth city. It's not the dorm room I rented until a while ago, or the cottage room I use at Dungeon Attack.

Naturally, it's not a horse cabin that was sleeping in the King's Capital, or a hidden aside in the mountains that fought to the death over their homes in their homeland and food with goblins.

This is a borough apartment in Tokyo where I lived before I died before that. It's a studio apartment with thirty years of construction, wooden construction, not even a washing machine. Anyway, I remember choosing for cheap only.

Even if you touch the wall, the feel stays the same. Nothing has changed. There is not enough furniture… but cheap TVs, futons, tables, and wooden racks are what I used.

If you look closely, there are also wall scratches that were photographed at the time of occupancy to prevent repair costs from being taken after eviction. Exactly. I don't remember the contents of the fridge at the time, but the contents are all I'm likely to buy.

It's good to say everything stays the way it was then.

... What the hell is going on?

Here I am, the old Watanabe Tsunami... I would understand the story if I were Japanese. I would also have thought of a line called Dream Othi like I thought before.

But I'm still me. I'm here, staying on the Watanabe line doing adventurers in the Labyrinth City.

As a promise, I'll pull my cheek. It's light because if you give it all your strength with my pinch force, your cheeks will chop a thousand times, but it still hurts.

The outfit, brave man... remains the combat gear dressed to rendezvous with Berenvar. I can use Instant Costumes, so even when it comes to combat, arming is a lightweight thing, but it's still a problem to walk around the Japanese city to a certain extent. If I go outside dressed like this, I'll treat you like a cosplay, or I'm suspicious. Some Items Boxes are usually worn….

"... can I use my skills?

If I tried it, I could use both Item Box and Instant Costume. I can see in this situation, but they are both useful skills.

That's why it's transformed into a regular outfit called Gpan on a T-shirt. If I wanted to be, I could be you, Demon.... but it won't.

Fortunately, I look plain. It doesn't look weird if you're not brunette or on Earth, so if you're even dressed normally, you won't be called to the police if you're walking outside. At best, they are seen by foreigners.

Pink hair like Mr. Bennett's, and Tomato's long ears seem difficult to mislead, so you're also grateful for this plain look. I can't even hide it when I get to horns like Berenvar......

... That's right, it's Belen. I... we lost our minds in the light that Beren emitted.

"Sure, like Greater Teleportation..."

What appeared in the system message was a magical activation message I had never seen before. Trap Magic must be the first thing I've ever seen. At least it doesn't exist in my knowledge.

Is that metamagic to tell from the name? I don't know where they flew other than me, but I flew to Japan? Hmm, asshole.

Asshole, I know, but this is definitely my room for life. Speaking of unnatural things... nothing has changed since the last state I remember.

If you believe what Dammus says, the infinite corridor has no time constraints there, even if it's connected to Earth.

Reasonably, you can go in the past, so it's not impossible to get flown to the apartment I rented at Pinpoint.... It's not impossible, but whatever you think is unnatural.

From the innumerable parallel worlds that exist, pinpoint time to specify my world… or similar worlds to move around. If you can do that, even Dammus won't have a hard time.

Then what are we talking about here... we don't have enough information to judge that. With Dammus, I can make a lot of assumptions, but I can't help but have partial information.

I'll try to turn on the TV to check the situation. Outreach, I can also think of a development where a mastermind-looking guy shows up on the screen and says hello.

When I operated the remote, there was nothing wrong with the TV. What we're broadcasting is a news show with no other love. Yes... it's a show without any weird philosophy.

"... what, this"

It wasn't until I turned on the TV that I felt uncomfortable.

That's crazy. You're supposed to be watching the show, but you're not getting in my head. I know what kind of show you're doing. Yet the words of the terrops and announcers displayed on the screen are falling out at the next moment, even if I feel like understanding them for a moment. Spooky feeling, like the knowledge gained falls from right to left...... Different from the perceived inhibition of labyrinth cities, it feels as if you got something that doesn't exist from the beginning. I feel like there's been a bug in RPG with countless empty items with no use whatsoever.

Turned off the TV to be too disgusting.

For a few minutes, I think it was solidified. I was in a state of lethargy for an experience that didn't make much sense.

"... right. Let's go outside."

We need information to explain this weird phenomenon. No TV, but there must be information outside.

The shoebox also had spare sneakers, but now the feet are different sizes. Put your own shoes out of the Item Box and open the door.

For a moment I also imagined that the outside did not exist or would return to the room, but I was able to go outside normally. It would be nice to know if it was connected to an infinite corridor, but it's a familiar view that spreads in front of you.

It was a nostalgic city. Even though I only lived there for a few years, I felt as though this was my home town.

I forgot to check the time, but at least not at night. Not early morning or evening. The fact that the sun is above your head is probably about noon.

I was hesitant to go back and check the time.

Even though I was a poor student, there are many items that come with clock functions in Japanese household goods.... There should have been a clock in the room in the first place. It can't be out of sight.

Probably didn't recognize it. I was afraid to confirm that.

You won't be back here again.

I don't even know if this is the apartment where the real Watanabe Tsunami lived. But even if this is real, there's no place for me here. My place is a labyrinth city, that cranhouse.

Even before I was founded, I'm a clanmaster. You can't just make it and throw it at Yuki.

I have to go back there.

The first thing I felt when I walked out was discomfort.

…………

... Weird.

In the meantime, I headed to the station to recreate the journey I had once made to college, but it didn't rub like anyone else.

All you can hear even if you deafen is the sound of the air flowing. There is no sound of life, bugs, or cars that people wake up. It's too quiet a city.

It's like only one of you was left here, attacked by such loneliness.

... No, maybe it's not a mistake either.

In the first place, it wasn't decided that this was Japan. If you ask me, it's an unidentified mystery space. No wonder I'm the only one here.

Rather, that is more convincing. It would fit better to be told that this is a copy of the Earth.

So the question also arises as to why the electricity is on, and even if the content cannot be confirmed, the TV is running it.

I think I need to make sure of everything.

Of course we have to consider how to get back to the original world, but it would be a prerequisite to check the rules of this world first. I don't have any tips, so I should clear it out of the reach in front of me.

That's why I go into the nearest convenience store.

The automatic door was running normally. After all, there are no customers. There are no clerks either.

I know all the products sold, but the one I wanted to check most was the magazine.

Arrayed on the shelf was the cover I knew. I don't even remember the details, but it's definitely a magazine I released before I died. Prepare for another strange phenomenon and take the comic book magazine and open it.

I checked from corner to corner.... but all that came to mind was the series I was reading continuously. I barely remember the contents, but I remember the contents slightly. Other than that, I should have read it, but it doesn't come to my mind.

... somehow I'm getting the rules.

things tried and got their hands on the food displayed in the convenience store. There is no Japanese yen, so there is no allowance for food and drink, but I cannot stand at this time.

The results are as expected.

I know the taste of things I've eaten in the past, but I don't even get the feeling of products I haven't had before.

I must have eaten it, but it feels like time flied. It is oddly vain that the torn wrapping paper is rolling.

And one more thing.

A convenience store must have a backhand. There should be a toilet, a warehouse, and a staff room.

I can largely imagine what lies ahead, but this is the first time I've actually stepped in.... I wonder if I can get in.

"... I knew it"

We can't let the results in.

No, I should have come in, but I was at the exit at some point. At least I don't remember walking inside.

I mean, I can't reproduce anything I've never experienced. It's the rules of this space that you can't go anywhere you've never been.

I also feel that there is some complementarity. It shouldn't be so strict.

Originally, magazine printing would be slightly uneven depending on the object, and even food has subtle differences in each of the same products. I feel it is reproduced with the out-of-the-box feeling that it is something like that.

Naturally, I guess this isn't Japan. It's a special, perhaps mysterious space reproduced from my memory. It doesn't change who you are. But I think that's clear...

Just reopen and tummy. Some of the Items Boxes have food, but at this time I will get this convenience store item.

I even ate only what I had eaten and threw it in the Item Box for nothing.

It's not strange to disappear at some point, but the storage itself was done, so throw it in properly. I feel like a thief. He is a mighty thief.

Even if you go outside the building and check, the items in the Item Box have not disappeared. It doesn't look like anything in my stomach has disappeared.

... and when I went inside again, everything I brought out was replenished. After eating it, it's even disappearing into the garbage I left on the floor.

It's refreshing to see how it works, but it's a super convenience store where products play indefinitely. I want to send you to a food-distressed country.

It's useful as a garbage dump for now, so I'll throw in a lot of garbage generated on the expedition.

If the clerk saw the contents of the garbage bag, it would be a lot of problems, but it disappeared properly. Well, goodbye, my genes.

I then tried to use the vending machine using the money I borrowed from the convenience store, but this also went into normal operation.

The flavor is... I may have felt tears before I went to the labyrinth city, but at best I miss it. There are a lot of the same things and more delicious things in the Labyrinth City. I don't think you care about the cost in that city.

Now, where should we go to next? Think while feeling the flavour of a nostalgic can of coffee.

I'm just worried about deciding where to go to make things better. I was convinced at the convenience store that the only place I could go would be anywhere I've been in the past. Where I've never set foot... I can't even get into the alley around there. Or maybe even if I've seen footage or something, the information can be supplemented and moved, but I don't know how to add or subtract it.

I tried to get out on the main street and the car is not running. It's a disgusting sight to miss. It is a city of death, devoid of moving objects. For this matter, animals, birds, insects.

... Here's one problem that comes to mind.

I haven't walked around the city much since I got out of Tokyo. Not at all, but as far as the precision can walk in a matter of minutes. If it was faster to use the train, it was naturally traveling using the train. In other words, my range of action in this city will be centred around the station.

Is there any way I can't get out of this city or something like that? If the train isn't moving, or if we can't follow the tracks, this could be a confined space.

I won't starve to death, and I can secure a bed, but that's all. Nothing else. No one.

Imagine living here, and I'm freaked out.

A week won't be a problem. I haven't had a problem in a month. But how about a year, a decade? Alone in this lonely space. Will it be normal to go nowhere and have a time of recklessness?

Probably impossible. Absolutely crazy somewhere. A life without new excitement is simply not bearable.

One...... yes. Is it possible for other members to move here? If I had someone to talk to, I could stand this loneliness a little more.

... No, why are you thinking about staying here? We'll have to find a way out of this first.

Given that it would have been reproduced from my memory, is it natural to assume that I'm not there? If you were flown into a fragmented world, no rescue is foreseeable.

... I don't really want to think about it, but is it possible to die? If he kills himself, resurrects like a dungeon, and returns to that room, it's a trail he can't get out of forever. I am confident that it will go wild for sure.

When I was so disturbed, a bus came from behind and stopped at the bus stop in front of me. The destination is in front of the station.

"... is the bus moving?"

Does it mean that public institutions such as trains are alive? The fact that the electricity is running may mean that engines such as power plants are also running unattended.

There are no drivers or other passengers as a matter of course when boarding the bus. But the door closed automatically and the bus ran out. I sit in the right seat and look out.

At least you won't get out of town for this. If you can catch a train, you can get off to a station you've been to.

I'll look out from the bus that ran away, but there's still no shadows. I also felt like smashing a window if I saw it in some moving shadow, but that was useless too.

End point, arrive at the station rotary. I guess a penniless ride won't piss me off, but I paid the lump sum. I borrowed the money from the convenience store, but you won't mind.

I could also confirm that the train was running. I can see the train running normally over the elevation. It's empty as far as I can see. Maybe there's no conductor. In the meantime, the worst thing about being unable to get out of the city is likely to be avoided.

I came in front of the corner station, so I decided to get ready before I got on the train.

I don't need it most recently and I can get it all together somewhere else, but I just throw it in the Item Box, so it won't even be packed.

It is mainly clothing, groceries, sunshine food, and survival goods that we borrow. Some things may not work, but throw them in as much as you can throw them in.

Later, he borrowed two bicycles for ease of movement. One is spare. I'll get some air intake just in case. The bike is naturally something I've never ridden, but it doesn't look like I can't. I can row and move normally.

What we're doing is robbery, but no one to blame, no one to trouble. In the first place, it doesn't even affect you because you're going back to normal right away.

And I came to the station. The contents are unrecognizable, but the electro-optical bulletin board is alive, and the automatic ticket functions.

Think blurry with a view of the road map.

What would be better if I were to head there? You may head to college as originally planned, but there is no special purpose there either.

I think I can get over it and settle it, and for now I can go inside and then figure out where to go...

... For example, can I go home?

The only way to get around to that apartment was by train. Other than that, I have been back and forth several times. It would be troublesome if we could only use that route, but it shouldn't be impossible by the rules we've figured out so far.

It will take some time, but you might want to try and see how far you can go.

I'll buy a ticket once I get the ticket straight because it's going to be a buzzer. The destination is the opposite of the city centre.

Think while being rocked by a drone train.

Why did I choose this one? It's not too late to go home or stroll all the way to Tokyo.

You won't even have to worry about time. I haven't checked the clock, but the position of the sun hasn't changed. Perhaps the sun will never set in this world.

It's not just about exploration. I was certain for some reason.

I felt there was a truth out there that I didn't want to know, apart from the clues to getting out of this world.

Not all the big brackets in the city center, but that there's something in that direction.... something that you can understand just by getting close.

I must have the mental ability to stand most of the time. I can stay flat in situations of dying pain, shocking occasions, and crazy situations if I'm a normal person.

But before that, something in me will talk about not going there.

That's more of a warning than a fear. There's something there that makes even my broken safety device hesitate.

He said it was too early to get there. I'm not ready to find out yet.

I feel that's not the right time to face it. And I don't think it's that far away from knowing that.

I'm sure I need to get there.

There's something there that's essential to get ahead of the infinite.

Then I will go there on my own feet, of my own free will.

I was so sure.

-2 -

Arrive at the nearest station of your parents' house.

Memories, especially a sense of time, abound while I was on the train. I don't feel like I've been on that long. I don't even remember switching. Yet I was there.

Once, in a city where I spent as far back as high school.

Unlike Tokyo Station, it's a lonely station. There's no such thing as no ticket, but it's definitely rural.

The last time I saw this place, it was… an experience of death. I have a bad impression because it is the death of a train, but there is no sin in the station. That's a bad lotte.

My hometown is terribly rural. It hasn't changed in a few years since I went to Tokyo. Besides, if you're assuming this is the world that was built on my memory, there's no way it's changed.

Take your bike out of the Item Box and go to the city. Getting around would be tough if it was on foot, but having a bike would do anything.

Exactly. This city has a wide range of mobility compared to the city of Tokyo. I know it's an alley, but I've been to most places.

I was on my way to high school first.

Normally, my parents would be the first to go. It's closer to you at a distance. But for some reason, I thought we should head there.

Is it a mistake to make you feel that way? Or is it the power of an example mystery gift?... I feel like they're both different.

This is, I'm sure, an empirical guess. If it's "him," I'm sure he's headed there.

I don't even know if I'm in this world. There was something close to certainty, even though it was such an obscure possibility. And it has a definite feeling that high school is getting closer.

Get off your bike and aim for your former room. It's that room where I spent a long time with him and the rest of the crew.

"Yes."

"... Sempai?

There was a beautiful bow there. He sits in a pipe chair and lays down on a foldable desk, placing his legs unreachable to the ground.

For some reason, I was in sailor clothes at the time, but the contents were in a half-elf body that didn't resemble each other. Sailor clothes are dabbling because they don't fit the size at all. What an extra sleeve.

"Why sailor clothes?

"Is that the first thing you ask...... Somehow."

Well, if you're coming here, you're dressed. Should I have worn a learning run, too? I don't think it'll ever look good on me.

"Why did you come here?

"... that too, somehow.... I thought Sempai would come if I were here. What about Sempai?

"That's the same. I can almost read your behavior."

"Ho ho, is that the one called the breathing of an abalone? He said we were making sense of each other. This is the only way to prepare a marriage notice... in fact, something that has already been stamped here..."

That's the usual Nori, but he's still not feeling well. Bad tooth cut.

"If you can't go home like this, you can think about it in about a decade, but you can't go back."

"Right. I knew it. You need ten years in this situation too... I'm getting tense around the corner and I'm getting depressed"

By and large, the delivery will be processed wherever it is sent.

"Because I'm a little alone in this place no matter how much... If it's a Yandere stained sensation, you'd think you'd be alone in the world, but this place is just... You can't even be Adam and Eve here."

Beautiful bows, too, seem to largely grasp the rules of this world.

If we do something about the physical problem, we may be able to extend it to reproduction, but we won't be able to have children. Probably doesn't age either. I can't take a step forward or backward. It's a complete enclosure.

If it were Serafina, Dirk and I would likely be happy together. It's a happy ending in a way.

"You didn't think I was a fake?

"Is it a fake?

"You're not. You're real, too."

"Then I guess so. … honestly fake, but better than one"

That's not an excellent look on the face of a beautiful bow. Does that mean I've been here for a long time? Seems like you've been here before me.

Sounds like you know what kind of space this is.

"Yeah, this is probably me... a 'still world' made from memories, including a little Sempai. The physical feel doesn't seem to pass time anyway, and there are only a few places you can go. I'm not hungry either."

Aren't you hungry?... Speaking of which, I haven't eaten anything since I vandalized the convenience store, but you're not hungry at all. Doesn't even make me sleepy.

"What happened at Lardin's Royal Castle?

Looking at the timing, the interruption of the Reading Talk should have been faster than the metastasis. This is the only way if you know what caused this situation.

"No, refreshing. With nothing particularly happening and no response from Tomato Troops, Mr. Glenn's" Tales of Reading "to rendezvous with the brave ran out on the way, and he was in his room in this world at the next moment."

... Tomato Troops? What, it's a word that bothers me a lot, but I don't want to hear it.

"Didn't a magician do something with a glass?

"Neither that magician nor King Lardin had been on surveillance for twenty-four hours, but there was no particular noticeable movement. I don't think something magical has been activated, at least as far as I can sense. In the first place, there's no way a mage to that extent can do anything. That's suspiciously suspicious, but it's a genuine trinket."

If Beautiful Bow is an amateur, I guess some lines say I missed it, but it sounds like he's stepping on quite a few places.

"Is it impossible to act like a trinket?

"I'm not saying it's impossible, but it's hard to think that if you do it, it will cause this situation with no action."

No action...... nothing foreboding?

"Just before this situation, Mr. Glenn said that Lardin's royal castle might have been overshadowed by the junction..."

"... that's odd. I don't sense that in me.... is it a time difference? It was activated after I metastasized..."

"... then you'd better consider that there are other factors."

"Right. It would be better to explain that an unknown opponent has set something up from outside the castle."

It's not even a mystery novel, so there can be a line between a character who hasn't appeared before and a real killer.

It wouldn't be a good idea to remove the glass from the mastermind candidate, no matter how small it is, but if it's just a possibility, it's how much.

"What assumption would you need if I were to scratch your eyes and cause this situation, taking into account the point of outside interference?

"This situation doesn't make sense in itself. It's array, but assuming this is witchcraft, it's a level of grand witchcraft that even advanced ranks can't exercise. I am borrowing a magic item prepared by Pestle Builder for this request, and to activate it from the Royal Castle premises, I will need" disguise "or" cover up "just to mislead the" Nursing "at least at the advanced rank level. It's impossible to activate such a great sorcery without being sensed from above. What if I could... pestle builder level?

Well, there's nothing I can do about it. It's a wasted level for us to think about right now.

"By the way, have you been here the whole time? How long will it be?

"It's pretty crazy to have physical time, but a few months... is it less than six months? At first we strolled around all sorts of places, but we didn't like anything anywhere we could go. So, I've been here about a week. I was about to cry a little when Sempai came. If Sempai is here, he's going to be able to stand it for the next year."

"No, get out of here."

"... do you know how to escape?

"No, I don't know, but you can't stay here forever."

"It's not like Sempai is rescuing you... wanker"

I was here at some point. Either that or I'm on the shipwreck side.

It is good that we were able to rendezvous in this way, but we do not know the cause, and it does not change that there are no escape clues. But we should have information we don't know about each other. You should build it up from there first.

"... in the meantime, we'll share the information, including the details. So far it's been a different course of action, so we might have a lead there."

"Aisa."

One by one, the information after the separation at the transfer facility is folded.

Beautiful bows don't have that much information. They really didn't make any moves in the royal castle. I know most of the regular reports.

There was a lot of first-ear information about the glass and the king, but I can only smell three down as much as I ask.

A king who is only interested in women and gold and thinks that no matter how many people die, it has no effect. Glass to set up a calculation for stealing gold objects and escaping in the middle of a war.

I use the brainwashing spell all the time for little cunning, and the brave summons is almost a coincidence. They barely understand the details, including obtaining a black orb.

"I have a bit of a talent for spells, and this is how I said I used the orb I got from the scam"

"Summoner... Is it a coincidence that the guy with the black orb aptitude was in Lardin?

"That's the other way around. We just took action in a country where there are people of the right kind."

Did Lardin just get involved? A king like that is likely to perish sooner or later.

"The war, too, was originally meant to be and Glass just got on with it. The war itself must have broken out, even without the brave man."

"It's a country you can't save."

"That's pretty much it for me. Is there anything for Sempai?

"Oh, this one..."

I have a lot of things. It seems that there is little direct involvement, but I explained it one by one.

What happened at the Expeditionary Base, what happened with the Knights of the Kingdom, what happened to Mr. Sangolo, what happened to Sarjes, what happened to Philos about to get married, what happened to Gowen going to the concert.

"Sempai people don't care about the second half. It's just a good story"

"I don't care."

It is a real problem. Though it would be a lot harder if the sync got married or ran out.

I'm sure you won't be able to go to the reunion on the subject. They don't call me that anymore. You get an email by mistake after you're done and you realize you did a reunion.

No, it's not about the experience or anything.

"From here on out, the key point is that after meeting with the brave man Berenvar, the metamorphosis magic was activated as soon as he joined Mr. Glenn"

"Who activated it?

"I don't know. It was probably Beren's body that was planted. However... Trap Magic and other messages came out, so I don't think it was activated actively. You ever hear of that?

"No...... such a way to activate is the first ear...... trap?

"I guess it's not simply a trap, but rather a mechanism to activate it if some conditions match. I don't know the terms."

What would have happened just before that? It's like meeting some kind of condition......

Mr. Glenn and the others rendezvous?... I also feel that it will take too long to activate. There must have been a minute since the rendezvous.

Given the timing of Beauty Bow's interruption, the trigger is likely to be on the Royal Castle...

But at that point, the beautiful bow is flown here. Even if there was a cause in the royal castle, I don't know.

"... assuming we set a trap like that, what way can we think of?

"It's a magic formation or a magic item. By the way, there was nothing like that in the Imperial Castle. It's like a magical formation of world-to-world summonses we've used."

So was the trigger, but something was planted in Berenvar as well. So when was it planted?

If his belongings contained such a suspicious object, he would first notice himself. Suppose you don't notice... in your body or something? You think you're swallowing something. It's going to be excreted over time...

"Same goes for Belen, but if the glass is swallowing magic items like that, is it something you can sense?

"Swallow... you'll see. It should return a different reaction from the magic flow of the person. Unless you're completely integrated and part of your body."

"Doesn't that mean you're digested and nourished?

"Right."

Ask them in detail and they will return a different reaction with the person until they are digested, even if they eat something containing magic. This is also true of fungi and the like, and as long as they live, they react as another individual.

You mean there's no line that a guy like a dwarf is bad from inside?... How about E. coli or something?

"I have no idea.... Have you noticed anything else? You know, ever since we got here."

"Uh, then. When I got here, I activated Talk from one end, but there was no response."

"If you're out of your mind, you can't return anything."

"I think only the people who use it will know, but if they don't react, if they're within range, the Talk itself will connect."

So you can't use your absence. It's a skill I don't want you to have in debt.

"The lack of response means that the distance is too far away or under special circumstances where it is not possible… So unless it is inhibited, the lack of response means that it is not within range"

"... is that it?

"Uh, I mean, I didn't think Sempai was here when I got here."

... is that the story? He said there was a time lag when he came flying.

"Sure, you've been here for months or something."

"It's a wonder space here. Different places were there before the transfer in the first place... does that mean that Mr. Glenn and the others could be here now?

"That's what's gonna happen."

Probably me and Mr. Glenn, Mr. Night Light, Mr. Carrot, and then Berenvar.... because we don't know the scope of metastatic magic, it is possible that the Philos and the others are also targeted, but at that point there must have been quite a distance. There are also carriage horses and Mr. Glenn's dragons in brackets called creatures. Sargess is supposed to be sleeping in the city, so she won't be eligible.

Even the dungeon is said not to have elapsed in time, but it seems to have elapsed only marginally, so it is unlikely.

This isn't a dungeon, but if it's a similar mechanism......

"... isn't that a dungeon?

Why, I can tell you that. Dungeons are not caves, but a variety of environments. Then a copy of Japan. Constructing a dungeon from the memory of a challenger...

"... what's up?

"You, have you seen the status card since you got here?

"No... it's not that much to look at in the first place... and if you come up with anything, should we get it out?

"Oh...... no, I'll check"

I will retrieve my status card and confirm its display.

There was a dungeon challenge time counted. The count is still increasing every second.

"I see... Beautiful Bow, I know just a little bit who you are here"

Show the card count to the beautiful bow as well. I don't know if it will tie into a solution, but it's the first hint of this world that's close. It is a Doya face.

"Who are you... is that what you mean?"

They immediately understood.

Stat cards do come in handy, but unless you play games like phone calls, chats, or Tilia, you don't watch them often. Because it is normal to know for yourself what information is contained there. I guess that's why I was blind spotted.

Now there's one thing I know. This is a dungeon.

I don't know what dungeon it is. Or it could be an infinite corridor, but anyway, it means we were forced into some kind of dungeon.

If this is where you say you will have the same mechanism in the dungeon, it's not surprising that a few minutes difference outside says a few months time difference. As I am here, it would also be possible to have members who have metastasized at almost the same time.

"... Shall we try and see if The Tale of Reading makes sense for a moment?... No Vivian. Mr. Glenn later...... is that it?

The condition of the beautiful bow changed. That's the look that almost gave up hope, but it led to an unexpected look.

"... did you get through a little?

"Yes...... please wait a minute. We can also connect to Sempai."

I can hear Mr. Glenn now, too, if you've broadened the scope of the Reading Talk.

- "This is Glenn. Can you hear me? ――

- "Yes, it's Tsuna.... you've been coming this way...

- "Oh. Even so, I just noticed earlier and I still can't grasp the situation... I heard from Miyumi that you and Tsubasa joined me earlier. How well do you know the situation there? ――

- "I don't have that much difference in information either. I'd like to rendezvous if I could, but do you know where I am at the moment? Something about a sign...

- "... I don't know. This is Japanese...... is it? Different letters have been added, but I can confirm a lot of the word 'Shinjuku'.... Is it the station? ――

... are you in Tokyo? In that case, it is likely that he will be in Tokyo, except for Mi Bow. But Shinjuku Station is also... the last dungeon.

- "Hey, is this Japan? ――

- "Yeah, it looks like a copy of that. Shinjuku should be able to move from here.... we're on our way there, too.

- "Let's rendezvous while in regular contact. Here, I'll explore if I can get out while I look for other members.

- "This looks like a world made up of memories of me and Beauty Bow, so please be aware that the route may be limited to travel. I don't think there's any danger.

- "All right."

Shinjuku Station is probably based on my memory. Then I can only use the route I have traveled.

Shinjuku Station has hardly ever walked around except for transfers, so the range of travel should be quite narrow. You should pick him up from here.

"Beautiful Bow, we're headed to Shinjuku for now"

"He said in" The Tale, "can you go to Tokyo?

"I can go. Instead, I'm from Tokyo. You might need to try, but I think you can move too."

That's how we start moving.

-3-

To get to Tokyo, we head to the station first. I just got here, but it's a dragonfly.

I have a spare bike, so I give it to Beautiful Bow, but they can't reach the pedal. That's a young girl.

I don't even like eating time here, so I threw it in my bike basket. It's a little big and difficult to balance to put in the basket, but it's not nearly impossible to move.

It's like Oba running with a toddler in front of her.

"Uh, aren't these things usually hugged from behind? I won't say luxury because this is the situation, but it's a little more romantic..."

"It's nothing good. It's an experience you can't normally experience."

"That's fresh...... I'm a little scared of this"

If we keep flying in the sky, we're going to be able to get an ET. You're like an alien because you're from another world, and you're the one who encounters the unknown.

You can wrap it in a futon if you want. In that case, you will dive into the sea.

"In the meantime, you're on the move, and you're calling the right guy for Reading Tales."

"It's not like a phone call...... ok. I'll talk to you in turn."

I tried it and found out, but among the members I expected to be involved in the metastasis, the beautiful bow and the knowledgeable members were found to be within the scope of the "Reading Talk".

There doesn't seem to be a response, but he's probably still passed out.

Later, in regular communication on the move, it was also possible to confirm that Mr. Glenn was able to rendezvous with Mr. Night Light at Shinjuku Station, so it was Gowen, the horse, the dragon and Belen who did not fully understand the situation.

When the horse was roaring in the square in front of the station, I was just in a hurry and about to get cocky.

The sight of a carriage in front of a rural station with no one is as if it had gone backwards in time. Black-and-white photos are likely to help me dress up.

As he pushed his bike and approached the horse, he noticed it too.

"... you were here too"

"Oh, I don't know what, but the two of us on the carrier are safe. I'm not awake."

A peek inside the carrier the horse was towing is causing Philos and Gowen to fall. It's underneath Gowen's giant and Philos seems to suffer, but there's nothing you can do with a horse.

From what I've seen, there's no trauma, there's breath. Looks like he's just fainting.

The horse seemed to have been flown here earlier on, and he was going to wait for the two of them to wake up before moving. I'm glad I didn't go wrong.

"By the way, Sempai normally talks, what's this horse's name?

We rendezvous at the end of the gate, so the beauty bow is faceless. His name is…….

"... Speaking of which, do you have a name?

"Rude. Even if it looks like this, it's not wild, it's an exclusive horse breeder. There's also a proper name for" Black. "

Black... your body is black so stay put. It's a proper name.

"I don't mind if you call me Cro with all your familiarity. Miss Elmia calls me Croc. Hihin"

"No, because I already have that asshole."

Not black over there, but still an early winner. But Cro... every time I talk to him from now on, my horse's face is going to flicker. Hihin.

I had a little hunch that he belonged, but if you ask me, Black is over the base LV40.

I don't have a class because I'm not an adventurer, but those junior adventurers are going to be able to clean it up. Better not piss me off too much.

Should I call you Mr. Black or something?

"If the clan is the same, do you even know Mr. Glenn's dragon?

"Miss Linda doesn't have that kind of contact because she's Mr. Glenn's exclusive, but we know each other. He can't speak Japanese, so it's a conversation in" Reading Talk. "

Can you use this guy's Tales? He also has a variety of other special skills.

I'm also surprised that the name of that dragon is Linda, but for this matter, I think I have a lot of other people. Is that something like a top clan? I don't know.

"< Arc Saber > That's amazing. We're the only riding creatures in Wyburn for period rental."

They have a Wyburn at Mr. Tomato's.

I just finished at the end of a death fight the other day. What, is it stronger than an array?

"Rental or... poor thing"

"Poor thing... is that so different from being kept..."

"I'm proud to be a horse keeper. It's not as cheap as giving anyone a ride."

You, didn't you play with Sargess or Mr. Carrot on board? No, maybe they're special... they're special, yeah.

Then wake Philos and Gowen on the carrier. The two seemed half panicked, but as adventurers I was used to unforeseen events, which calmed me down quickly.

Since it would be a train trip, the oversized carrier would be thrown away. It doesn't even fit into the "Item Box" of the biggest beauty bow of all.

I was supposed to hold as much baggage as I could, but the baggage itself is not much in the first place. I just had some food and some spare armor.

Remove the carrier, take the lighter black, and take the train.

Since it is a Japanese train that does not assume a giant size, it seemed a little difficult for Black and Gowen to get in, but they were asked to sit on the floor as they were because there were no other guests.

Whatever Gowen is, it's a different sight to have a big horse sitting on the train.

"... I see. You mean here is a copy of Japan."

On the road, explain the situation to Philos and the others in detail.

I'm from pure fantasy, but it's also not such a surprise sight for those who have gotten used to labyrinth cities. They don't really get out of the dungeon compartment, but they still have a lot of opportunities to touch it.

But as far as the windows are concerned, the labyrinth city seems to be developing better.

"That's the country around here. Tokyo is quite urban, but it's still a mistake to compare it to the mysterious supercivilization."

It's a city made of ignorance of resources, laws, or even laws of physics. Unlike Japan, which is full of restrictions.

I don't know how it was made, but the center would be more developed than Tokyo.

I don't feel like the secret is asleep in this world, but that's all Dammus would know so far.

"You may not know the Sempai method, but it's an experimental urban compartment or an SF anymore."

Tomato says there are also future cities in the labyrinth city that you can't imagine among the multiple off-limits sections.

The range we live in is only an easy space to live in, so it looks like we're experimenting with something else that's not on the table.

Convenience = easy to live, I guess not. After all the experiments, I guess I use it in a central compartment or something. Actually, even if they say it's going into space, they're going to give it back.

"If you spent this much time in a developing city in your previous life, wouldn't it have been hard to live in that world?

"D Bottom line, so instead of this world, even that world standard was tight."

"Oh, oh... well. I don't think that's the case with you."

That home is hell. It is an unkind otherworldly reincarnation.

"By the way, how long does it take to get to a place called Tokyo?

"I don't know. I would have taken a couple of hours to get there, but the space is a mess."

I didn't even have a sense of time when I came. Whether they say a few seconds or hours, I'm convinced.

"Mr. Philos is getting married when he leaves, isn't he? We need to go home safely."

"Oh, you heard from Tuna... right. I have to go home."

Why do you flag death so cheaply? If you're after him, he's terrible.

Gowen's on the brink of a sudden conversation. I mean, we had time, so tell them.

"Right, are we getting married? I've just been on my turn lately with Wife, too, but this is another shy one. I have a beautiful white fur..."

Together, Black began to brag about his daughter-in-law, but no one was interested. After all, there's a huge difference in race. I'm not interested in horse marriages or anything at all.

Then a while later, Mr. Glenn had a move as well. A beautiful bow, apparently, who was doing "Reading Tales," reports.

"Looks like Mr. Glenn's out on the ground."

It seems difficult to get to Last Dungeon Shinjuku Station with restricted mobility, but I seem to have managed to get outside.

At the point before that, Linda...... The Dragon and I seem to have been through the "Reading Talk," so we rendezvous there. He said that he had joined Mr. Carrot with him.

"Linda...... looks like Mr. Glenn's dragon was collecting Vivian. Looks like he's been screwed."

Looks like Mr. Carrot hasn't woken up yet, but he hasn't been particularly injured or anything.

"Does that mean we know if everyone's safe or not?

"No, Berenvar hasn't. Given the circumstances, I think there could be a line if you weren't there."

"Mr. Glenn has asked me to fly The Tale, but I think I'm here. It's just that there's no response, and this world seems to be distorted by space, and they can't use detective magic well..."

Are you there? Then we'll be able to rendezvous. The problem is then. How do we get out of here......

"Don't you know how to detect and do that?

"I'm not sure which is the north, but judging from what I said, it looks east."

Regardless of whether the direction can be trusted, it is east of Shinjuku... Chiyoda-ku, Chuo-ku, and... Edogawa-ku? If you are further ahead, you will enter Chiba. Bunkyo-ku, Sumida-ku, Harbor-ku, Gangdong-ku if it comes off a bit......

Where have I been before?... like the Imperial Palace? There seems to be something about the game. I've been to Tokyo Station many times...

No way, Mr. Rat's kingdom...... At this point, the facility is working, right? If Berenvar was playing face-to-face, he's going to burst into laughter.

... I know. It's a real escape.

I have a slight bad feeling about it. I thought about it before I got here, an area I shouldn't touch. It's like wearing it......

... No, it looks like things started moving before that.

"The train... stopped?

It is not a parking station. The train stopped, even on the way between stations. There is no feeling of the brake hanging, only the movement stops quietly.

"Apparently, he moved from Mr. Mastermind before we did anything about it."

Outside the window is switching to a space where there is nothing at all at some point.

Nothing, the mysterious space that goes on in the white space everywhere... the same space that was on its way to the private space of one day's Dammus.

The train door opens on its own.

"I guess you mean get off."

"I guess we'll have to move on. Not every Michi rendezvous had a clue to escape. The Tales… connect. Looks like Mr. Glenn and the others are in the same situation."

We descend into a white space through an open door. Gowen was lifting the horse who had difficulty with the steps.

When they all got off, the train went out, and we were the only ones left in a blank space. I don't even see Mr. Glenn and the others.

"There's something over there."

Beautiful bow points to black stone columns. Same structure as what I once saw during a trial or in a class change room.

We'll all come closer and say that something will most likely be displayed. A peek at the stone columns did show the letters there. But it wasn't Japanese that was displayed there...

"... what, this"

A line of unrecognizable letters. Instead of Japanese, it is not a common language for the continent. On the contrary, it's even a suspiciously typed indication of whether it makes sense.

"I don't know what it is, are you bugging me, this"

I don't know what the letters mean, but there's a flashing part that feels like pushing here just like when you're in a trial. If I push it, it will fly somewhere again.

"It's super suspicious, do you want to push it?

"If it's the same thing that was at Dammus, they'll fly it somewhere when they push it."

"Sempai, do you know this place?

"Not here, but I've been through similar places.... I just have to push it anyway, just be prepared for whatever happens.... I'm gonna push it."

Make sure they all snorted silently, then press the string on the flashing part.

The scenery switched.

The cobblestone hallway...... it also looks like a dungeon but one way or another this is an artificial building.

"The Royal Castle of Lardin"

Beautiful bows, who would be most familiar there, murmured with certainty.

-4-

Follow the beauty bow guide and we'll move around the castle.

Apparently, we also know that Mr. Glenn and the others are moving to this castle. They didn't move that way with stone columns, they flew it for us.

I also thought during the trial, is this a metastasis? The feeling that the space around me has been rewritten is tighter......

"I'm pretty sure it's Laden's royal castle, but there's nobody there. I'm not even hooked on sensing."

According to the beautiful bow that confirms the mysterious radar-like object, only us and Mr. Glenn are here.

The vital reactions that were supposed to have occurred before the metastasis are exhausted but disappearing. They're emptying it, including magicians, royalty, samurai and other servants. The only time there was a life response was during the sight. It's at the end of the aisle where we are.

Because it was a castle in a small country, or through a corridor with no gorgeous decorations or conditioning, and when I got there, one man with shallow black skin stood. It is also the purpose of the expedition, Berenvar, the brave man of the Kingdom of Lardin.

"It's you..."

He seemed confused by an unrecognizable group, but when he checked my appearance, he seemed a little powerless. Speaking of which, I'm the only one in this that has facial knowledge.

It was an appearance in a Las Boss-like place, but it doesn't seem like this guy is behind it.

"Earlier, Mr. Glenn and I talked in The Tale, and this is Laden's Royal Castle."

"Oh, there's a guy who was staked out in the royal castle, and I recognize that.... Don't you see why they flew me here?

"... I just think you got something set up on my body, but I don't know. If it's possible, I'm an example magician... very..."

He expected some from the reaction at the moment of activation, but he didn't realize it.

And after all, it's an assessment that it can't be in Glass Nigrem.

"Is this really Laden's castle in the first place?

Philos says he's never actually seen Lardin's royal castle. I was wondering that, too.

"Right, isn't that the same copy as that city?

"That city?

Explain it to Belen, who was in a fake Japan earlier and could not be contacted.

I don't know where he was, but Belen's here in the same way we are.

"Well... what I was in was a dark room. I was flown into white space right after I woke up, so I honestly don't know what's going on."

"Hmm, you're right, it sounds like a copy here, too. Dungeon Attack Time counts as is."

Says Beautiful Bow as he checks with his status card.

I mean, I don't know whose memory it was reproduced from, but does this mean this is not Laden's royal castle, but a copy of it?

"Dungeons...... were they flown directly? I don't think it's possible because I was also flown out of the infinite corridor into this world... is this also the infinite corridor?

"I don't know if it's an infinite corridor. I just don't know how I can get out."

"... If this is a dungeon, I haven't finished filling the magic yet, but if my engraving of the Return Art is available, it should be possible to escape."

"Engraving?"

"It's a magic engraving that's engraved on my body. Magic that requires formation is instantly activated. I can't use it until I've got magic."

I've never heard of a magic trick that would allow me to escape from a dungeon, but I've never heard of an engraving. They don't even know a beautiful bow, so it's probably the world specific technology that Beren was in.

The avant-garde's ability to use powerful magic, albeit remnants of ammunition, is of great benefit. As far as I can tell, there seem to be few people in the profession equivalent to adventurers, and maybe it's a technology created because it's an environment that can't ensure the safety of the rear guards.

"I don't have any items or anything. It's the only trump card but this one."

Apparently, there are several other sorcery engravings engraved, but the Return Engraving will take a particularly long time to fill.

Even if it is in the dungeon, it will be filled, but it is not possible to speed it up, and it seems that about three more days are needed.

But it doesn't look like we're going to be trapped here or forced to go back to death.

After a while, Mr. Glenn and the others showed up as well. Mr. Carrot is already awake and the dragon... is getting smaller for some reason and on Mr. Glenn's shoulder. Is it easy to stretch?

Anyway, now we're all set.

"We finally got to meet... I don't know what the situation is. I would have liked to see that Japan if I could afford it..."

Is it a joke to be Mr. Glenn? I suppose you'd be interested because it's the same place as home in Dammus.

"I'm the one who doesn't get the most out of it. If you think Mr. Glenn took you all of a sudden, it's a strange phenomenon."

"I think it's bad. I'm sorry, but I need your help."

"Please enjoy something next time."

"Anything at all."

"Well, let me give you a drink of the group increase that Mr. Glenn's hiding from his wife."

"... Oh, oh... no.... How do you know..."

Suddenly Mr. Glenn felt sorry for him, but what Mr. Night Light said was better. I was originally requested by Dammus, but I'm involved without a detailed explanation of the circumstances.

I just don't have a more reliable ally from now on if you think about it militarily. The adventurers at that base were ranked high by Mr. Glenn. Why don't we just let him drink?

"Wasn't there a hierarchy like this by attacking the deep side of the infinite corridor? It sounds like a dungeon here."

"... That doesn't make any sense so far. I don't know if I'm ahead of layer 100..."

By the time we rendezvous, the information we have obtained so far has been shared. It also tells me that this is a dungeon.

But even Mr. Glenn in the front line seems to have never experienced this trick. Suspicious when it comes to that trial......

"One hundred and zero layers de is ali ma se."

Suddenly, a mysterious voice echoes during the sight of no one but us.

From the structure of the building, there is an unlikely echo, and it is impossible to identify where it is emitting.

"Glass Nigrem......"

A beautiful bow looks in the direction of the throne and squeals. Looking in that direction, there's one person in a suspicious robe. Is that the magician?

The full face is hidden and invisible, but it is the madman himself who laughs with his giraffed eyes and teeth as sharp as fangs.

Everybody keep their mouths together. He said he wasn't the mastermind, but you're too suspicious no matter how you look at it. Of course it appears in such an unnatural place, but it emits a disastrous aura from all over its body. It may or may not be accompanied by strength, but it is a subject to be doubted first.

"Am I the magician of the example?

"No... that's... what?

Denied.... Aren't you the magician who was in the royal castle? Then again, he is the mastermind......

"Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo,

If you think the glass starts greeting something, it emits a mysterious oddity and your body swells up. A thin dirty robe tore open and something worm leg-like popped out of under it.

"Hey, what is it!?"

Mr. Glenn screams, but I want to hear that. Obviously an anomaly.

It's not human skin that looks under a glass of torn robes, but odd, peeling gut-like bodies. Something like creepy legs, arms and tentacles are popping out of that body.

There are also parts like worms and parts like molluscs and other molluscs that are not uniform. The whole body, which has become huge and revealed, is a monster whose constituent parts are fragmented and roughly unspeakable as life forms.

If you want to live, you don't have to be in that form. Unnaturalness that I can assure you will certainly not be if you make a legitimate evolution.

It was the figure of the chimera that fought together in the thirty-one layers of the infinite corridor that passed my head when I saw that figure. It's an unreasonable mass like the one he took in the creature to the ultimate.

"Gwefeffe!!"

Shit.

That's a hell of a lot of shit.

It's not that level of shaping, or strong enemies. Array is a manifestation of the very existence of negativity: death or despair......

Just looking awakens the underlying fear, a mass of malice.

"Vivian!!" Nursing! Hurry!! "

Beautiful bow screams.

Carrots are the most detailed information you can get. We need information on that compound first to deal with this anomaly….

- - "Name: Glass Nigrem, Race: Parasite Legion, Base Level..........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

In Mr. Carrot's "Tales of Reading," the results and upsets of a joke-like "Nursing" are communicated.

It still looks like Glass Nigrem, but other than his name, it's weird. So are the deaf races, but what is that level? I got a level in the middle of Nursing...... no, is my status changing as well as it looks?

"Level 100 OVER..."

The inflated body soars near the high ceiling and continues to change its appearance now.

Not good. Only Mr. Glenn and Mr. Night Light are likely to be able to fight me in this. Whatever you think is in our hands. The two of them are already in a combat position, but...... it's dubious if they can really deal with it.

We should pull here. Once we're in shape, we'll have a dummy... here, isn't it, Dungeon? I can't call for rescue.

... Is that a dungeon coming back to life somewhere if you die? Then the insurance in the worst case works... but I can't try it. It's too dangerous to rely on it because it's not advantageous to start over even if you're dead and you're finished.

"Damn it, Miyumi, I need backup at a distance. Night light, I'm sorry to keep you company, but we're gonna finish this together."

"Copy that. I have no idea... if you think they brought me here for a reason, it's a monster that seems like a lot of slaughter."

"Uh, Sempai,... go home first and have a pine salad ready"

Don't bother flagging death at a time like this. Is it fashionable?... I can't do this. You're gonna find out.

"Philos, Tuna, you take Mr. Berenvar downstairs..."

"That's troublesome."

Voices echo from somewhere so as to block Mr. Glenn's words.

The deformation of the glass also stopped to go with it. Its monster stained voice also stops, silence only comes for a moment.

Someone represented themselves from behind the glass that became a giant.... human.

... the normal girl from what I've seen. Follow that monster... I don't know if he's there, but it doesn't feel like he can stop moving very much.

At least, it doesn't make you feel overwhelmed like the chemicals in front of you are releasing. When it comes to a series of masterminds, the glass before the transformation is more "seemingly".

But there is no way that a guy who appears on such occasions can be decent.

"Because of this, I succeeded in summoning from the outside world. From scratch again is a hassle. I was wondering if you could leave me alone. '

I hear voices overlapping.

One is the voice of a normal girl. The other is hard to describe, an uncomfortable voice that is forced to twist out words.

It's like having two loudspeakers and it's going to howl now. No, it's not just the voice. You even look like you're bluffing to exist.

"... satina"

Berenvar squeaks.

The name was heard several times during this expedition and belonged to the person Belen was trying to save.

... So that kid is the summoner who called Belen into this world?

'Oh, I guess I'll say hello first.... Challengers of the Infinite Corridor, gentlemen. Welcome to our Admin Realm, Infinite Corridor Negative 200 Layers'
