Over The Infinite

Episode 10: The Prisoner of Cause and Effect

-0-

That was long ago. Tales of a distant past, far enough for civilization to be born, doomed, and even forgotten what it meant to be born.

It's a long time ago that even the dragon raw adapted to long raw is so distracting that it's difficult for people to even write about it.

Once, there was a highly prosperous civilization. Although there is no detailed record, human society at the time said it was extremes of prosperity, stretching its hands to the numerous stars brilliant in the universe and continuing to expand its dominance. The home planet was developed and exhausted to the bottom of the ocean, but if you reach for it, the vast universe extends. Everyone was convinced that a glorious future lay ahead of a frontier that could also be called infinite.

But there is a shadow behind prosperity. For mankind, the stage of the universe was too broad.

Survival zones that are pioneering and expanding out of orbit, widening inequalities and deteriorating security, and a wide variety of civilizations create several closed colonies, allowing the latency of anti-social forces. There were also limits to repression by force and policing. Emerging states' independence and war, terrorism by armed groups, and the growing problem amplify popular discontent and chaos, and civilization itself quietly begins to collapse.

The feud, which has expanded to an interstellar scale, produces numerous powerful and effortless weapons, creating their means of confrontation and rapidly accelerating the evolution of weapons.

The existence of a dragon was also one of the biological weapons created by man at the time.

A self-evolving ultimate weapon created solely to destroy the existence of enemies. Inside, he said, there were even individuals living on interstellar voyages, instantly extinguishing asteroids.

The emergence of superweapons, all of which make that old generation of weapons a thing of the past, achieves the objective of the integration of human civilization.

The target of extermination is different civilizations and peoples. In other words, it is the same person. Its exhaustion was destroyed, and on the countless corpses and debris, the unity of the same nation, of the same civilization, was achieved.

After the war, without the revolt of dragons, which was of concern to some intellectuals, it seems that man once again extended the civilized area of the former united nation to extremes his time of prosperity.

The ultimate controllable violent device. Guardian of the stars. The victor, the man, so praised the dragon.

After the role, the dragon falls asleep. A dragon is only a weapon, a tool, a thing created to exist. It is merely a quiet marking of time without the presence of enemies. There is no longer an existence considered to be the original enemy. Will you live eternity as you fall asleep, or will you be destroyed at the hands of man? All the dragons thought so without resistance.

No dragon, no maintenance, no fuel, everything can bribe itself. It doesn't even need to be maintained by human hands, and it doesn't oppress the economy. No, no one thought of destroying a merely deterrent being in possession.

There are those who jeopardize the power of dragons. The voice grows stronger every generation. However, the benefits of dragons were greater than that.

Was the voice a prophecy, or a warning? A new enemy emerged before mankind and dragons who sang only a little peace.

New enemy beings were the people who created them, the same dragons. In a long history, man forgot his past and began to divide and quarrel with several forces inside.

It is the dragon's mission and existential significance to fight if commanded. Whether the other person is the same dragon, that doesn't change. It just fights without even having any doubts.

The collision between the ultimate weapons called for ruin. The battle will continue until all civilizations have collapsed, lost control and become ashes.

In too long a contest, the purpose loses its meaning and the war itself is tempered by the purpose. The war goes on long enough to forget what the first cut was and even what caused it.

Reconciliation is impossible. Exit no longer exists. If you back off, it's you who will perish. Maybe that was something we should have called a survival struggle rather than a war.

Thus, the last thing that remained was a small number of human beings and fragments of civilization. Human beings who have declined at a level where species survival is at stake have chosen not to maintain civilization, technology and knowledge and to regress to primitive profitability.

Dragons who have even lost their skill to dispose of and have been abandoned without receiving orders just keep waiting for the life of the Lord. The dragon, who has lost the Lord, over the long months his presence is forgotten.

There is no grief there. Even if there is no one to command and forgotten, the dragon will only pass the time quietly. It doesn't decay, it doesn't increase, it just quietly marks a long time.

History begins again and repeats itself. Over the long, very long years, man rebuilt, and began to fight.

No matter how many times we repeat ourselves, we destroy ourselves with the things we create. Overlooking such repetition, sometimes asked to intervene, keep an eye on decline and prosperity. When it develops, it destroys itself, and when it perishes, it rebuilds itself again. If the dragon was anything but a weapon, did you find its cycle of ruin hilarious?

It was a mankind that repeated all its mistakes, but not all of them were equally stupid. Some of the repeated civilizations have developed highly, leading to an understanding of the existence of dragons and the application of hands. It was around this time that the next generation was born to dragons who were equal to immortality and did not have the need to reproduce.

At the time, there was one genius. As a scientist, as a philosopher and as an archaeologist, he was superior, questioning the very way the dragon was.

A dragon feared as an absolute in a long history, or as a thing equal to God. Something you shouldn't touch. Guardian and Destroyer.

The dragon, which sees the glory and collapse of many civilizations and continues to mark the hour, is an extra substitute in the hands of the dwarf. But it is a bad idea to turn a blind eye to this existence. Isn't it the best way to avoid annihilation to join hands and explore the path to take together? Isn't that the most effective way to maintain civilization?

There can be no right answer, such as a cloudy order issued by a person. If those who deal with it are imperfect and selfish, any force will call for cloudiness and ruin. The dragon destroys the hostile being by the time he is foolish, because he is bound by the relationship of obedience.

Dragons are never unknown. He is an intelligent and interactive opponent. Is it possible, then, not to treat it as a weapon but as a neighbour, not as a subordinate but as a compatriot, to make up for each other's missing parts?

But the mere existence of dragons to blindly forge a relationship is only a drama. Too absolute existence is in the hands of man. or, as God, cannot be placed entirely at the top. There is no way all humans can tolerate it, and dragons don't want it either.

Sage thinks. As a result, the instrument chosen is a compromise proposal.

Instead of treating dragons as they are, they create separate degraded beings that are easy to control. It made him think step by step, not just of the limitations of his abilities, but of trying to create a dragon as the keeper of the world, not just a weapon.

The plan yielded the results it deserved to call success first. It is difficult to say that all attempts have been successful, but it is certain that diversity has emerged in the ever stalled civilization of dragons, and it is also true that to some extent they have succeeded in reconciling dragons with people.

The birth of a dragon, to be known as the Imperial Dragon, is one of the consequences of this plan.

By deciphering the history of sleeping in the memory of the dragon, it was easy to identify the causes that led to the annihilation of mankind in the past.

Among the many causes, the biggest problem was not passing on the record of failure to the next generation, or it weathered through generations.

It always weathers even if generations learn and learn about past failures beyond switching and failing to maintain the continuity of consciousness. The point is that the limit as a species, life expectancy, stands.

We have succeeded in creating degraded dragons and creating beings that walk up to people. Then the wise man thinks that the next time is when man will be ready for a time of change.

The shape of a person's evolution. In this sense, the new being created as a being with the dragon factor and standing between man and dragon was generally successful.

Applying a hand to the gene itself, to the root part as a species, elicited a strong backlash from the human world, but in the long run it was also a solution that was no more. Those who reject it as people, those who choose to cut people off as old beings, or even dragons as unnecessary, let such problems be resolved forcefully in time.

The ideal world first held by a sage was accomplished after thousands or tens of thousands of years.

And then I visit.

You can say that at that point the world was coming to an end in a way.

Humanity and dragons that led to a slowdown in civilizational evolution, a social structure that could also be called stagnation, and dragon men did not seek explosive innovations, but only expanded the world with moderate growth and expansion.

As far as past admonitions, mistakes and numerous examples of failure were concerned, the parties also understood that it was close to an optimal solution.

Indeed, the world is too lax. But instead, problems are hard to come by, and there are no extreme failures. Fine strife does not develop to a scale that can be called war. If it was based on the assumption that we would see it in a long time, it could have been an equal civilization forever. No longer can there be as ruin as it once was in human civilization. If ruin were to come, it would be an additional factor.

Yes, it was nothing more than an external factor that caused the collapse.

It came from outside the world.

It led everything to collapse just by being there.

The world, thought to last forever, easily collapsed by only one being, only one malice.

All that remained was cursed by malice and the only young dragon who survived.

That is the end of it all and the beginning of a long and long battle for the Imperial Dragon.

The young dragon left raised the roar of sorrow.

I lost everything. Everything has perished. All of that was lost, as were the dragons of the previous generation, who lived longer than distant antiquities, the dragon men, who are new neighbors, and the human beings who should have been said as masters.

What the hell am I supposed to do if I'm the only one who survives?

I mourned, grieved, and cried for hundreds of years in a world where no one was there. All that remained was hatred for the doomed thing.

Run the world, cross the stars, and look for the remnants of the sole over the distracted years.

And the dragon, who found a rift in the dimension called the Infinite Corridor, a path leading to resentment, began a long battle.

Over 100 layers became the world's administrator. Beyond the 200 layers, to the 300 layers, became the dominant being of many worlds.

At a time when there were more than 400 layers and more than 500 layers, I learned that that authority was held by another thing.

The lonely battle was the limit there. Its ability as a species was powerful, but it led to areas where it was impossible to advance the attack without the aid of the system, administrator authority.

To unlock the situation, the dragon thought he could use the system of infinite corridors to create forces other than himself.

However, the administrator authority of an infinite corridor relies heavily on the knowledge, experience of those who have the authority to perform its functions. Dragons don't inherently have their own civilization. All records have been lost, both for the slightest civilization and for the civilization created by man. Creating new ones is just too difficult. There is nothing that can serve as a reference for the observable world, and likewise all those with administrator authority have no dialogue. There's even clearly hostile stuff in there.

- "Among them, that manure worm should have been disgusted by pulling out the group." -

There were some beings to spit on, so much so that the dialogue interrupted during the retrospective.

In the end, the conclusion drawn by the dragon after a long time was the backbone as an organism, reproduction.

If there are limits to quality, you can increase the number. If you were your own child, you would be born with enough qualities.

The problem of reproduction on its own was forcefully overcome in the system of infinite corridors. That is how my children, born, and the dragon, move on to the end of the infinite corridor.

This is how the lonely battle that we have begun in a world that has lost everything and nothing will continue to this day.

-1 -

A giant dragon floating over the head of the moon. The Imperial Dragon tells the history of the world. A history of ruin and regeneration, coexistence between man and the dragon created by man. And it was the history of its ruin.

I was just overwhelmed by too magnificent a scale of old stories told through The Tale of Reading from a moon-sized giant.

It also means that vague enemies have fallen into incomprehension by being told through more vague scale stories.

It's good to know that you don't like nameless things for now. Sky Dragons and Emperor Dragons are probably favored because no interactive understanders existed. Well, compared to that.

- "This is the living history of the concubine. And it's a memory of Nushi's encounter with his common enemy, the only malice.

The world of the Imperial Dragon's birth is in a way an extremely successful world. In this case, it seems that there is no such thing as a complete correct answer, so we can say that we have derived and constructed an answer that is in a sense close to the top.

Such was told that my enemy was a being that destroyed a civilization far more advanced than the history of the Earth.

There is no guarantee that the story is true. Just because it's true, there's no guarantee that its existence is my enemy. But there is a definitely stained feeling that Sole, spoken of by the Imperial Dragon, is indeed my enemy. He was telling me that the instinct the soul had was the right one, not reason. The only malice I could ever feel vaguely was being there with contours.

And unlike me, who stands stunned, I was indulgent on the sofa installed at some point when I turned my eyes to Dammus.

"... what are you doing?"

"'Cause I've been told this far in advance. It'll be a long story from here, too, Tuna, so you can sit down. I'll even serve you a drink."

I don't know if I'll let a giant dragon hang over my head on a desolate moon yet, but I'll sit back as I'm told.

Huang Long says nothing in particular.

"Uh... I don't know about dragon courtesy, but wouldn't this be disrespectful?

"It's not a public story or anything, because it's private, so to speak. We're going to fight together, so let's open our chest collars."

- "I can't care less about courtesy because I'm a compatriot with the story I met. I don't mind if you talk to me like you did to the man there. Not even one of the men there is worth fighting for.

Well, if that's what they say. You say you suddenly lost your mind......

... So you're at a level where you can beat this, Dammus? How do you say we fight? Month size. Even though I'm still just looking up, I'm going to be dazzled.

In the first place, I can't even think of a vision to fight. The fact that a sword was protruded on the moon would only affect the extent to which it was worn through pores from the moon.

... Oh, does the power that created the craters around you make it through the damage?... Either way, it's a distant world.

In the meantime, sit back on the couch and calm down and collate the information so you can bite it off. I meditated on the anomaly of sitting on the couch on the moon.

The history of dragons told by the Imperial Dragon. The only malice that destroyed the world. The Imperial Dragon and his children in the face of it. And that's my enemy, too.

Swallow and consider a pile. Honestly, I would only be able to grasp it superficially, apart from the fact that at the moment the only malice is my enemy. Undoubtedly, it is not a story that I understand and convince on this occasion alone.

The Imperial Dragon was too big to tell, but the dammus in front of him looked half confused and waiting for me to settle down.

The coffee and cookies you prepared were extremely ordinary, unlike the tea of Elsel, the god of water, but that, on the contrary, calmed me down.

It was from Dammus that I opened my mouth after the silence.

"... Now, from here on out, I'm an unknown realm too, but what does it mean to be a compatriot? Can I assume that the basis for having a common enemy is in your gift, Tuna?

... Well, that's where it comes from. Perhaps the only person who understands this feeling is us. It would be something of a kind that I wouldn't be sure of without some reason.

But this one relieves tension and helps, but isn't Dammus a little too shattered?

- "Yes, Pestle Shingo. The gift of Watanabe Tsuba," The Prisoner of Cause and Effect ", is nothing more than his curse. A substitute that would otherwise be disinhibited at a stage where it was concealed, disguised and subdivine in multiple ways, but would be recognisable if there were concubines who were the same owners" -

Pita, I stopped drinking my Dammus coffee.

Is the captivity of cause and effect the identity of a gift that Dammus could not decipher? Previously, it was read up to the Prisoner of, so it does match literally.

As usual, Japanese is probably a phenomenon such as the fact that the words of the Imperial Dragon are automatically translated. The Silver Dragons spoke Japanese, but there's no way the local language the dragons are supposed to use is Japanese.

"... now you can see... sure. The invisible part was" The Prisoner of Cause and Effect. "

Dammus was convinced when he saw me. Does it mean that the lock came off because it was pointed out clearly? If you look at the status card to try... oh, seriously, it's on. Now I always have three gifts, but I don't need them super.

"I couldn't even analyze the name through the hole, but does the Imperial Dragon grasp the effect of this gift?

- "No. It is transformed by the essence of the soul of those who possess it, even if it is of the same name. What we have in common is the name, the only negative feelings for malice, the will to destroy him, the alteration of the cause and effect that will be done to guide him there.

But all I found out was the name and outline. The sole and my sole of the Imperial Dragon means that Gawa is the only thing separate from the same.

... causal alteration. Even if his name is clear, he still doesn't know where he is. And he said the connection to the signs of death he's feeling is also likely my own thing.

Is it "hard to die" or something like that highlighted in my case? Someone at the Salad Club once said, enough to even realize the bullshit of throwing them naked into a conflict zone and returning safely.

- "The curse reads the root part, which should also be called the soul, and manipulates the cause and effect to fit his purpose. It amplifies the intrinsic nature of the holder and deliberately creates a bug that even the guy himself cannot grasp. I suppose it's a painful strategy for him, prepared to achieve a purpose that is not achieved by legitimate means.

"You were a serious bug character..."

... No, you don't have to say that. Seriously, I thought you said it might be too thin.

"Go on, ask me a few questions, okay? Tuna, you're still confused."

- I don't mind.

Dammus sent his gaze over here.

I don't know the exact intent, but you should leave it to Dammus here. When it comes to the existence of examples, the emotional part can't be calm ahead of time. It helps to have a third party to go ahead with the conversation.

"What is its sole malicious purpose?

- "It is its own complete death. By the nature of his existence, he cannot commit suicide. He wants to destroy himself as an alternative.

Suicide volunteers?

"... who are you? How many years ago, if we met once, wouldn't we have a star?

- "It is a difficult thing to define, but perhaps information is a willing thing. It is not an organism, it is a fictitious being that is not even certain of its existence and has no clear will other than its own death...

"Is the only malice a unique name?

- "No. He has no name for expressing himself. The only malice is what my concubine calls me because of my characteristics.

"There's something about the word" malice. "

- "Run Ri. He's a mirror-like thing that reflects the malice of those he sees. embody the greatest malice for that person and induce malice.

"You mean the only evil to him. No, it's not even evil, it's just malice..."

In short, you mean the annoying guy who has no standards of good or evil and only does harm by just being there.

"... so you left me here. There was a point."

It seems that Dammus has convinced him of something in his previous interactions, but I don't know its sincerity. If you try it on me, it feels irrelevant, although it is an important story on a global scale.

"... isn't Dammus a representative of the world?

"Actually, Tsuna, I suggested that you and I should talk. But the Imperial Dragon told me to stay here.... I thought it had nothing to do with me."

"That's who you're dealing with deep down in the infinite corridor, and you'll encounter it unexpectedly..."

"No, he won't be interested in me. If there is, you must have been in contact."

Really? Even though the Imperial Dragon has encountered before trying the Infinite Corridor, Dammus has not even encountered any other administrators beyond the 100-o layer.

I'm not sure the only criterion of malice is good, but if you're looking for someone to destroy you, it's unnatural not to come into contact with a leading candidate in the infinite corridor.

... than I am cursed. That criterion is another thing, not combat power, and that Dammus doesn't have it.

"... Well, what does that have to do with anything"

It's unlikely that Dammus will encounter it if he keeps attacking the infinite corridor like this. Then even if it would be an obstacle to returning to Earth...... that.

... Is that it?

"I mean, the Earth is doomed."

-2 -

"... Huh?

I understood what Dammus intended in an instant. Understood, but I can't keep up with my thoughts.

Earth is doomed? Such an idiot. No, what's stupid? I haven't even seen Earth since I was reincarnated. I haven't observed it, so that's possible.

I talked to someone who knew Japan: Dammus, Yuki, and Mi Bow. I went to a fake Earth during my expedition. Having had such an experience, I assumed that the Earth was what it was as it was.

... I didn't observe the current Earth or talk to the person on Earth.

I feel nauseous. The early bell that the heart rings rings sounds like it conveys a crisis in life. I can't breathe well. I just had coffee and my mouth is dry.

Has this possibility ever been unimaginable? Was it something you couldn't do? Do you know what I was ignoring?

... Isn't the blank part of my memory a memory of its demise?

No, don't get confused. This is a story that should not go out of sight.

I don't mind if it has nothing to do with it. If you think only of living in this world by dividing it from your previous life, you can ignore it.

But this is an issue that concerns me right now, and it's clear enemy information. No matter how many facts you don't want to believe, it's not a good reason to turn a blind eye.

... right. My possession of "captivity for cause and effect" means that I am in contact with the only malice somewhere in the past, most likely just before I died in my previous life. It's a blank part of my memory.

I don't know what kind of superdeployment there was, but it's hard to believe that the stage is extraterrestrial. And the only malice is that just being there collapses civilization. There's no way Earth is safe in contact with a guy like that.

"I don't know what to say..."

Then, Dammus has no place to go home. What are you going to do when you get back to your hometown where no one is? Even though there is no guarantee that the planet itself remains.

But Dammus looks calm. Do you not believe what you have said yourself, because returning is not an original purpose in itself, as Mr Alain suggested, or is there another reason?

"Don't be quick about it. My goal didn't disappear.... Don't give up if you don't, but you won't. That's not what the Imperial Dragon wants to say... is it?

- "Affirms. I will not destroy all the parallel worlds that exist with him and countless others. It doesn't make any sense.

Parallel worlds? Meaning doesn't mean destroying the planet. You mean after me?... No, that's not it. Even from the story of the Imperial Dragon, his actions are indiscriminate. It's not the same as being nameless. More orbitless, relying by chance......

"From contact to date, the response of the Imperial Dragon is extremely sincere and serious. You wouldn't deny the purpose of the person you're looking to cooperate with. You left me here because you think you can talk to me to help you with your purpose."

"... I'm sorry, I don't have enough information to tell you what's going on"

"Not sure, Tuna, but I'm guessing the planet you were on is doomed with a high probability. And maybe the Earth I was on is something else."

Is that what parallel worlds mean?

"... what makes you think so?

"It's Miyumi. I told you one day at the coffee shop, apart from you and his world and mine."

…………

That said, all he said was suggest the existence of parallel worlds by small errors. I didn't say it was just another world with Dammus...

"The contents are the contents, so I couldn't tell Mr. Pestle until I was clear. Talk about it, fine dates, celebrity standing, all sorts of different things.... was triggered by the difference in the date when there was a major incident '

... No, it's not. He knew. I was convinced it was another world with some information. That's what I know about beautiful bows, and those eyes are like that.

"I thought it was suspicious, but I didn't think what I was saying was wrong and I didn't want you to touch it. You can't be sure if you feel uncomfortable where the date is slightly off. You, can you be confident that the dissolution of the general election will be misaligned two days a day or the date of the terrorist attacks will be different, and there will be an error in that in a decade or so? I'm not keeping it as a record."

"... could be a little harsh"

People's memories are not that confident. As it has been more than a decade since I was reincarnated, I am aware that reincarnation can lead to a loss of memory.

... Plus, the guy in this world is a half elf, not a human. I don't know how racially different it is from humans, but it is inherently an extremely rare case of keeping memories just because gender, race are different. It would be unnatural to assume by chance that you remember everything clearly.

Most of the parts that are clear in the memory of the previous life are impressive, and the fine parts are quite forgotten.... In my case, some parts have disappeared unnaturally, but I think that basically the carrying over of memory associated with reincarnation affects how clearly the person remembers it.

Such vague information is unfounded. If we are to have a clear confidence that the world is different, we need events with a more intense impact, not a common social event schedule or something like that.

"He probably felt a clear difference from my world and was convinced. … maybe some of the events I experienced before the metastasis could not have happened."

"... because the world has collapsed"

"That's right. He has memories of the collapse that happened before I was summoned to this world."

Then I know I'm sure. Too clear a difference.

And I knew why he wouldn't shut his mouth and try to talk hard.

"Because what the Imperial Dragon wants to use as a bargaining material is the coordinates where our world is.... right?

- "Good guess, Pestle Shingo."

"What, I've been looking into all the possibilities of nameless and melee worlds lately, parallel worlds?"

I don't know why we're talking about that, but Dammus seems to have seen the conclusion of the story.

"I don't know, do you mean you can guess where the Earth is with all the information you've got so far?

- - "Parallel worlds always exist nearby, beyond being the existence of branched possibilities. Even in a different world, there's no doubt that he has more control over the vicinity than it is over the Earth that he showed up. It's a real mess, but I can see the coordinates in the infinite corridor.

I don't know how to travel around the world, so I can't really pin it. Is that what this is about?

There are so many speculative and uncertain parts, but the only malice likely appeared on Earth. It's possible that I've been in contact after being summoned to another world once, like Dammus, but I don't have a kiri to think about that much. Even the Imperial Dragon came into contact with his only malice in the first place. Here, for now, assume that the only malice has appeared on Earth.

Does the collapse of my world mean that there are Dammus goals as far as he can get to and from me?

There will be piles of other problems, such as how to get to and from, but if you try from Dammus, who is struggling badly in a dark search, it would be a big step forward just to figure out the goal.

- "As far as the concubine knows, his dominance is in the Infinite Corridor 200-o layer. I don't think they're moving from there. I mean, the world, including Earth, would be a layer ahead of it in the worst of cases.

... is that it? That's wider than I thought. I thought it was a narrower range. It's narrow when it's the feeling of a dragon, or something. That's not what I'm talking about.

"Ku... Ku Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha!!"

When he heard the answer, Dammus laughed as if he had suddenly lost his mind.

Exposure to emotions like you've never seen before. The stormy pressure blew away. A far cry from normal invites agitation and anxiety.

... Oh, that. You don't think the goal went too far and crazy?

'It's a little unstable. You wouldn't want to destroy the world, either, would you?

It's not about Dammus, but it's something with the same power. I even feel terrified when I think of myself as something that could be said about suddenly losing my mind and destroying the world. Give me a break about being self-absorbed.

"So, are you okay? Maybe I missed my guess, but I'll help too..."

"On the contrary, can this be without laughing? It's great, I feel great.... 2000layer. Is that all you need?"

"Ha, just? It's a little over 1200 layers right now. It's almost double."

That must have been such a harsh path for the spirit to wear off and lose its humanity. They tell you to double it, and that's all you do?

"I've come this far without any indicators. If you see a goal, that's how I'm gonna break you with a mixed nose."

"Are you serious?"

"Seriously, too, big deal. Even if you can be sure that there's a goal there, how different."

There are more goals ahead than in the 2000 tier. Is that all it is, that much information?

... No, that's too much information. It's so distracting in the dark that I can only see my feet... I keep searching for things I don't even know if they are. Even though there are many challenges left in the ambiguous, is that the only light I saw?

"I was assuming that there would be nothing to go that far, 50-0, 100-0. Compared to that, there is no such thing. At least we're here till we call back."

"That's right..."

No, the digits are too different as you are urochiro on the forty layers......

"Oh, that's why.... the only malice that sits on it is in the way. It's a hassle to be destroyed on a whim. Cooperate fully within your means."

- "Thank you, Shingo Pestle. This one's comforting.

Unrealistically, it seems that the story has come together between the top of the world.

... That's me. They didn't put it outside the mosquito net?

"Though, you don't seem to qualify me. In fact, the Emperor Ryu and Tsuna will have to do their best."

"Ooh..."

I don't know if this is a good development... okay? All of us share the same purpose and interests.

More information, more clarity of purpose, more collaborators, doesn't change what we do.

- "Son of man, please proceed with my concubine."

I guess that's not just my wish for Dammus and all the adventurers.

It is a plea for the infinite challenge of a lonely transcendent who has been created to coexist with men and who has lost those who walk with them.

-3-

It is not formal at the moment, but we can assume that this alliance will be formally formed beyond being a top-to-top exchange in each other's world. The Dragon Clan, including the Imperial Dragon, and the adventurers of this world should work together to hit an infinite corridor attack.

The ultimate purpose was also clear. As he shrugged, he also saw only a few Dammus goals.

But at the moment, even if you can see the goal, you're missing your way along. Even if the ultimate goal is set, we need to consider separately what to do to get there. That's probably an unimaginably long story, and how is this not happening right now?

Swallow the clear facts, lay the foundations for a cooperative system, and the rest, which is overwhelmingly inferior, is what I should do now to help catch up.

...... especially the last challenge is tight.

- "Then concubines often sleep. I'm a little tired of exchanging words with that bug Kera. Call me if you need anything.

"Oh, good night."

Has the purpose on this occasion been achieved for the time being, or did the Imperial Dragon disappear after saying so? The giant body slowly diminished and the vast universe widened as if there was nothing originally in sight.

... Nameless hates you a lot.

Now, let's talk a little bit about the future.

"I don't mind that... here?

I'm on the moon here. It's unsettling to be told to talk on a couch with a potpound on the run-down moon surface. I want to move to the Lordship Hall or at least the transfer facility I went to when I got here.

"Sometimes these things are also B's. It's a tea party with a vast universe overhead, unobstructed by the sky."

"It's too grand."

Moonsight is not a level. There's a moon at your feet.

... and it doesn't start when I say that, so I give up and reach for coffee again. We should not preach common sense to Dammus, a chunk of insanity. I'm a good man.

"I don't know what's going on here. I can breathe, I can gravity, but don't you have a time limit or something? I don't want to be thrown into space all of a sudden."

"That's not a problem. Elsie gained control by mastering to the 100th level of the Moon, so the Moon is free to get it. I can't think of a way to use it, but do you want to make it a tourist destination?"

"You don't know what the moon means to come all of a sudden."

"That's right.... I'm sorry, you're up a bit. I might say the right thing."

It's not the dialogue of people who always say the right thing, but I guess it's usually acting and now it's vegan. I mean, externally, it doesn't make much difference.

Was it such a pleasure to have even a little information?

"Well, we've got each other's final goals clear, but there's a lot of hurdles to think about when you calm down. There are plenty of challenges."

"Right."

They're rising. Contrary to Dammus, I seem to have been relatively calmly accepted except for the only malicious information. It also means that the information is too huge to overlook. It is also significant that it is not linked to the story of how to get there right now, beyond the fact that we have not seen the necessary previous stages to get there.

The Imperial Dragon's giant, the history he has walked through, and the fact that the Earth may be doomed were too heavy information, but I still can't wipe the image of a distant event. Sometimes it would be that he was hit by a stormy emotional revelation in Dammus.

"In the near future, Tuna, what you do is simple. As always, attack the infinite corridor and establish a clan for advanced rank, level 100."

"Nothing's changed."

That is also the path most adventurers make their goal.

"Instead, it's supposed to go that far and finally a starting line. Remember everything you need to do before you attack 100 layers and move on to a full-scale super-depth attack. And yet, instead of getting there, I have to be stunned that I scratched things around so far in just over six months from before my debut to here. That's a bug character."

"Don't say bug characters"

It's out of hand because they're actually making it look like a bug. I wish it was a cheat easier to understand, not a bug like "Captive of Causes and Conditions". Or, if you're going to say bug characters, even the Imperial Dragon will be with you.

"I have some interaction with the Sky Dragons, but what are we supposed to do over there?

"Because technology exchange is the main thing, you just have to show me a sample of how to fight as a human being and learn dragon technology from there. You don't have to worry about reporting it to me because Dirk is here."

You mean he's a connector with Dammus and a report writer? We have to be careful not to convey embarrassing information. Care should be taken not to write about forced cohabitation and marriage. If it says, "Mr. Watanabe was faking this culture and trying to do something horny to Mr. Sky Dragon," it could develop into a global diplomatic problem.

"Specifically?

"Except for pointlessly demeaning or insanely responding, there is no designation of content from here. Though it takes the form of a person, it's racially remote, so it's a request to you Tuna to explore the sense of distance one by one. Well, it's easy because you're just oblivious to human common sense, and you're not impatient or difficult. Think of it as a scattered, unscrupulous bonus stage."

I don't know if it's an easy job to do, but those three basically feel friendly and fundamentally good-natured. Problems caused by differences in common sense would not be fatal. Let's get Dammus to hold his ass in case anything happens.

"If the exchange of combat technology is a prerequisite, why don't you let them play simulated battles or even compete in battlefield games? Later, he wants to have a cultural experience, so he takes the labyrinth city around for sightseeing or something?

"If you're going to an experimental compartment or anywhere you need permission to enter, talk to me in advance. Yeah, we can attack the infinite corridor together. If they want, it might be easier to put them in the clan. Wow, it's full of members."

"Are you serious..."

Berenvar is pretty good, but if you say so, those three suck, that's more than that. Talent that's not great for boosting your clan's strength, but it seems like it's going to be a lot of trouble again.... No way, you're not thinking about keeping the problem children in one place.

"There were a lot of allergic mentors from the start, but there were too many distinct members, and it would be time for me, the common sense guy, to be buried"

"Common sense people and waros"

"Where are the laughing elements?"

I don't care what you think. Those eyes are eyes that laugh at people who call themselves common sense. Damn, for a chunk of insanity.

"I don't mind those three...... what about Satina?

…………

My hand stopped drinking coffee from Dammus. It is the second time today.... Oh, you're in serious trouble with this.

"... I'm sorry, but take it. I don't belong anywhere, and all I see is a future of self-destruction doing adventurers under the other."

"I heard you had a fight with your wife or something, but what happened?

"It's not a fight. It's just a one-sided sermon.... I can't fight with him now."

I wonder if it's a bad story to hear. Nevertheless, it seems to be an issue closely intertwined with Berenvar's relationship with Satina.

"We've been together for a long time, but the purpose in him is redemption for me everywhere, and that's all that remained. I pushed that on a child in the same situation. Berenvar is not me, and Satina is different from the others."

"Is Dammus against Satina doing adventurers?

"No. Surprisingly, I guess. I got emotional, and I got pinched and cut."

Oh, my God, that's great. Even though it seems like a situation where you don't have the guts to stand just to imagine it.

I don't care what you think. It's not just the behavior of a kid who was a town daughter until recently. The effect of nameless brainwashing? I would be stunned if I were a vegetable.

"That's all I can see and keep sticking. That's why I'm wrong, and that doesn't change my mind. But I can't even argue with the saying that it's wrong to even take away the means of redemption that she told me. Just because the victim forgives doesn't erase the guilt of the perpetrator. I'm not convinced.... I didn't know what else it meant, but it was a mess."

... I don't know what to do, it reeks of tremendous pounding.

"... and me and that other guy failed, but that kid might find another answer, right?

"So you want me to do it?

"Oh, at least I don't disagree. I was wondering if the master of the clan Belenvar and Satina would stop me if I was going to step off the road."

"You mean me."

Well, I'm not disagreeing either. The labyrinth city adventurer is certainly a tight job, but it's a decent profession in itself. Berenvar is opposed to the perception of an adventurer who was in his world and the fact that he is a party makes it harder to recognize him.

So I know that it would be easy to deal with someone responsible if they were seen from a different perspective.... I get it, but I'll do that too? I'm going to have to do it.

"... I get it. I'll do something about it, including dealing with Berenvar."

"That's you, Tsuna. All right, you can marry our daughter."

"I don't want that."

Why don't you marry Mr. Tomato?

"... no, I wasn't at the party"

It was almost just to show his face, but Mr. Glenn was in attendance, and it was a little surprising that the guy who was free in rehab wouldn't be in attendance. It's one of the core members of the expedition.

Though at the end of the year, there's no way you're attending a peer magazine impromptu.... No way, you didn't do it.

"You seem to be avoiding him coming to the Lordship Hall. It's been a long time, but I don't try to interfere more than I have to. Haven't you seen anything like that in your last life?

"You were familiar right after high school. I can't tell you how far I've been from people... but when I got used to it, I was wrong about the distance."

"Me and Elsie are still the best, but that sounds like something else and Mazel are pretty bad at. Rebellion period, I guess."

"There's no more rebellion."

It's just that time of year if it's just in this world, but it's hard to believe that the concept will work for the reincarnated.

My parents in this world too...... especially my mother and I didn't get along well, but they usually disliked each other so it's not a rebellion period.

"Forgive me, Mr. Tomato, but I want to marry you."

"That, you had a marriage wish? I know it's lusty, but it feels like we're getting married a lot quicker when it's Japanese."

I don't know why.

"Blah, there's no way to handle this overflowing lust. Whatever. You can de-age sex."

I'm so hungry for porn, it's about time I became a beast, can you handle it?

In case you remember The Roar of the Beast at this time, that is certainly the cause.

"I think it's too blah, but if that's what you're talking about, let's think about it. Age limits are troublesome when you make special provisions."

Whoa, you're gonna say it. It's a shame about sex, but even a horny wife is perfectly fine. We meet for now. We need to meet.

"Though, in your case, you're the central person with a ton of trouble that can't be on the table, so it's also hard to look after them. It's a problem to introduce the daughter of a powerful man, just like when she was a sword blade."

"What should I do? Should I lick my leg?

"No, I'm not reluctant. Why are you suddenly so humbled?"

It's a matter of life and death. Don't lick the libido for six months accumulated in the accumulation.

"As a matter of fact, I still have your designated matchmaker at the moment. He's stopping at my place."

"Why not?"

"You also don't like the daughter of the guy who buys Aotea just for grades, or the obviously politically married imperial royalty. Definitely cramped, hindering the main business"

"Ugh... I kinda hate that."

Well, if I think about it well, do I have to consider their parents' house as well? I was losing my mind because my side is light.

"That's why I need to narrow down my candidacy, so I want a few months. You got hope or something? Ordinary people, adventurers, age, preference, how many if bigamous ok."

"No, you can do it alone"

"Look, if you're a reincarnator, you admire Harlem, don't you? Tuna, who boasts a beastly lust, there are about four of you for now..."

"No, you can do it alone"

I don't admire it... I don't dream about Harlem that much. Harlem and his stomach are going to hurt in real life.

Instead, all three of them have daughters-in-law. I respect Dammus. I wonder if we won't have a drooling fight back there.

"It's a prerequisite not to tell or disturb adventurers to quit, it's beautiful and stylish, and I like the kid who feels too horny at night to stand it"

"It's only natural not to interrupt because I'd be in trouble if you quit at this time, let's see about that. It's just a matter of getting married instantly, so let's start with the pageant..."

"Totally problematic."

Even if they say marriage or something in person, it's the other way around. If it's just a physical relationship, it's OK.

"But you don't even have someone you're dating? I guess it won't come up for a report.... even if you think ill, you would not normally be left alone with a grade. I don't care what you think, young man. He's on his own."

"If I were you, I'd be more at peace."

My only fan is a man. Girls get similarly graded yuki stripped.

"And the party members? Look, Lirica or something..."

"Why Lilica?"

He hasn't been involved lately. I plan to move in at the beginning of the year, but now I'm supposed to be doing some long term work at the Mage Guild.

I don't know what's going to happen, but we have too little contact with each other to think about in the first place in relation to men and women. I wouldn't have that kind of emotion either. And I'd like some more back and milk, if I could. Though it's going to burn when I point it out.

"Oh, no, I'm sorry. Forget it.... I'm sorry, something's wrong right now... I really don't know if you're up."

"The same goes for Lirica, but is it unlikely that we will develop into such a relationship just because of our thick mentes, or do we consider the risk of internal collapse if we get our hands on it poorly in the clan"

"Oh, right. There's that kind of position problem, too, yeah. I hear a lot about party breakdowns in love."

Something's obviously wrong. Did Lilica have any contact with Dammus?

"... that's dangerous. I almost forgot... just a precaution."

"... what the hell"

Changing from an unconscious atmosphere until a moment ago, the look on Dammus's face changed to something serious.

"It's a secret to Yuki about today."

"There's a lot going on today, but what is it? Pageant?"

Mr. Alain called me when he called me, so there's nothing to hide there.

"I don't care about that. It's mainly about your only malice and your gift."

It's about the main theme of the day.... that means the Emperor Dragon's past and the Earth thing will also be out.

"I know it's a secret because it's important information, but can I tell the others? Dirk or something."

"I'll tell Dirk.... right, indirectly, but I want people who are likely to pass it on to Yuki to stop the information"

When this happens, the target is squeezed considerably. Even though 20%, female-specific networks diffuse at rates that are sometimes difficult to understand.

"... but why Yuki only?

"Honestly, I don't know. I don't know. I'm in too much of a state to judge, but I don't want to take risks in vain.... I don't have enough information and am uncertain, so I'll do a proper research before I talk to you. There's a dragon now, and we should be making some progress."

I don't get the guidelines. How do you know that risk occurs with a personal designation if you don't even know it for Dammus himself?

"I don't know what it is, but it's not inconvenient, and I don't mind.... but he's weirdly sharp."

"All right, then let's do something about 20% as a misleading story"

"... arr, even though it's your flirting, even if they say they'll do something about it"

In the public, wouldn't you call that a match pump?

"Tuna, you're deluding me by saying that you've won the right to do something about the 20% part of your name from me. You're gonna mislead me once or so."

... then would you delude me? I've gotten used to it a little lately, but he still cares.

"It's dangerous. If it is, you can ask for help, right?

"Keep the phone connected directly. But it'll be caged for a while, so minimal."

I don't think Yuki is talking about such an important thing, and there's a lot more we can talk about, so it'll be fine. If you choose to talk about the moon, the daughter-in-law of Dammus, and the Imperial Dragon... and the good offices of the matchmaker.... It's troublesome, so don't you talk about topics that look bad besides him?

No, it takes cognitive inhibition to pass it on in the first place, is it okay to respond? All right, let's do that.

... but you suddenly went from talking about a magnificent scale to a small story.

-4-

"What, you waited for me"

When I finished talking to Dammus and went back to the front door of the Lordship Hall, Yuki stood alone there.

I didn't know when it was going to end. It was a call, so I thought I was going home first. In fact, there are no other guests.

"Yeah. Sargess left first. We'll have an emergency nightfall bell event at the end of the year, so bring in the plan."

"Oh well..."

What are you doing? I guess I'm not getting beat up a hundred and eight times in real time. Just thinking about it makes me hump.

"I mean, all my customers, except me and Tuna, have already left. The day will change now."

"That's the time... You mean it's the last day of the year?"

He's been on the moon for a long time. You ate time mainly talking about the birth of the Imperial Dragon. The 10,000-year level of history was just not on the right scale.

"Something called you by Dammus?

"Oh, there's so much going on that I can't sort it out among myself.... Let's just go home."

That's how the turbulent expedition memorial party ended.

The situation is too rolling and what the hell was the original purpose of it, but I think it generally rolled in the right direction as a result.

It's a good enough event to make a party or whatever better, especially if you try to make it a dumbass.

The guide on the reverse route to the shrine was Tanuki's maid, not Mizuki.

Everything seems to rival the fox, and you're struggling to win the seat of Mr. Alteria's successor? He's not a member of the Danmas party, but does this person have quite a position to freely enter and leave the Four Shrines Palace and the Lords' Palace?... That's not what it looks like to talk about the definition of super maid at all.

As well as going, I could have been driven from the shrine, but the transfer facility was not a great distance away, so I decided to walk.

It's late at night, but we're still going through the territory where the set-up work continues, and we're still going down the long stairs. Sometimes at the end of the year, the atmosphere is different from usual, but the landscape I'm used to still calms down.

I even feel like I've been living here for years. I can't believe I slept in a horse cabin this time last year.

Second, looking up at the night sky, a giant moon caught my eye.... Apparently, the inhibition has been lifted.

"There's just so much going on."

"You mean today?

I moved over there, and every time things happened, it was time to get saturated. I feel like I keep it just because of surface tension.

"Not today, either, but this year.... I think it's been six months darker than all my previous lives combined."

"That was thick indeed. When I was in the mountains, I fought goblins starving to death, and it was basically the same day."

"No, it's thick enough, too."

"Let it go."

"Let it go."

Well, I think it was undoubtedly a more turbulent day than that, regardless of whether life was thick in my hometown where it really is a non-existent village. That would be a more intense day than anything I've experienced in my previous life.... except for parts that I don't remember.

"No, Yuki, take a look at my fingers."

I'll put one index finger up against the sky. That's just a finger in itself.

"... my usual gritty fingers though"

"I don't care about the goth. What's ahead of you to give me this finger?

"What... empty? Night sky. I don't know exactly what constellations are."

I don't know that either. Or is there a constellation in this world?

"What I want to take out there are these glasses.... you should try this on and see the night sky"

"... what is this? Something dodgy? Should I say Duwah or something?

"I guess it's dodgy in a way"

I don't need weird stuff.

"... I don't want to see Tuna naked or anything"

"These are not glasses that make your clothes clear. The story will weather, so call it quick."

If it was such a good thing, I'd sneak it up without showing it to anyone. I insist it's fashion, but I feel like wearing it alternately with regular glasses.

Of course, there's no such nice feature. These glasses were borrowed from Dammus to guide the subject towards impact. The point is, you get to see the covered moon.

"That's right.... I called, but what is this... Hi-woo!? Huh? What do you mean?

Just as Yuki was surprised, she raised a strange voice. It's obvious that something doesn't show up all of a sudden.

"What, that? I can even see it off.... a little bit, were you invisible?

"Correct"

"Well... Moonsighted burgers weren't earthly stories..."

Yuki seemed to think the same thing about me.

"Being invisible meant that it made sense to do so, right? Hey, does it even matter that Tuna was called?

"... there was a dungeon over there. Until a little while ago, there was something alien on the moon."

"Wow... I don't want to see that. You don't even wear rice cakes in that place."

You don't have to worry about the rice cake because it's ravioli. You've imagined an alien kidnapping a rabbit.

"I was there until just now. I came to the moon with Dammus and tea."

"... what?

I don't use rockets or anything, I haven't had a sixth of gravity or an oxygen free experience, but it's a clean trip to the moon.

A large quantity of hatenas appear to be floating around Yuki visually. Seems to have enough impact. If the unknown information is saturated, there is no room for doubt. You don't know what that means because you've only been away for a few hours.

There are many parts I can't tell you, so scratch and explain what happened on the moon.

"I don't know, but that's amazing. It sounds so dammit to couch out on the moon."

"It's basically my pace, right?"

I guess it's been like that for a long time. Even if I'm not in a vegan state now, I think so.

In the end, I never met her, but I could easily imagine the sight of Dodger attributed daughter-in-law and my-paced Dammus doing all sorts of things around her.

And I could also imagine Mr. Alain, a struggling man who for some reason could be made to wipe his ass.... That guy is emitting some sort of aura.

I thought you'd come in more, but Yuki doesn't come in too deep. I guess I'm more distracted by the end of the year than by such an important event right now. As the transfer facility approached, the topic shifted to routine.

"Tomorrow's New Year's soba will be since last life. Anyway, I can cook by hand..."

"Yuki."

I stopped my leg and called it in.

Say hello next year.

"Haha, it's only a day early.... but well, nice to meet you"

The figure belongs to Yuki, whom I know well, and nothing will change. This relationship should exist as a matter of course and will continue to do so.

Even in parallel worlds that seem to exist a lot, I'm sure they have the same relationship...

... casually, I thought of that.
