Three years after D Genesis Dungeon

§ 179 Return Stone 3/2 (SAT)

Then for two days, Sanko practiced prayer on one level, and I was sickening through the dungeon to mark 21 layers of DP house replenishment and behind the base as a transfer point, taking care not to meet the Seeker.

Mr. Narise, JDA's Dungeon Management Division seemed to be unscrupulous busy processing bids for the safe layer, and didn't show up at our office at the end of the month.

That's how Saturday when the big man is ready.

I hadn't seen Narise for a few days that day when the weather was beautiful and sunny.

Besides, the place isn't ours, it's the boot camp backyard we're renting in Yoyogi Dungeons. It was Saturday, but Sanho called.

"What's going on today, in here?

"Sorry I'm busy"

"No, would you rather say that it helped you to call..."

Narise said, smiling bitterly.

"I've already received a number of applications that I think might be harassment, and I'm glittering with the paperwork from morning to morning. I can't do normal business at all."

Safe area bids were limited to Japanese organizations (...) or (...) as a result of which bids were received from countries, companies and individuals from all over the world.

They said there were a number of applications for online applications that were harassing.

"There are a huge number of organizations that bid on all compartments, right? What would you do if you could win all the bids?"

"Aren't you going to resell it?

"There, the items that are properly forbidden to resell are set. I can't even lend it."

"Still, we can welcome researchers from other organizations, right?

"That's well..."

It would be difficult to ban it uniformly because there would also be exchanges between that organisation.

"It's a bid, so simply, isn't the amount indicated determined in order of high?

"If you do that, most of the compartments will be filled in China and the United States. Is Nokomori a coalition of companies and the media?"

"The press?"

"There are a lot of people who mistake it for Olympic broadcasting rights. After that, it's a luxurious online system."

"Netofli or something?

It's a difficult question to call that the press, but in the sense of a company that distributes information, you might say so.

I guess I'll deliver a series of documentaries.

"It's like that. So there are restrictions by country, restrictions by industry, etc."

"- Everyone's trying to get that net's eye?

Narise looked around and looked up at the heavens as she turned her eyes like she said no sushi.

Later, for when it comes to the lottery, I guess I'm making an awesome number of applications under no circumstances. It's like a courthouse hearing.

"To prevent that this time, is it called a bid bond, I even set up a kind of deposit..."

The number of compartments is no big deal, and even if you take a 1 million yen security deposit for one place, it's only 100 million.

There is no way that we can restrain to that extent the action of trying to get the only chance we have here in the world.

"So if, for example, a company in a certain industry crosses a pass line in ten areas, but five fail because of industry restrictions, you need information about that company to make a decision about the company that is going to lose."

Though I feel it would be a good draw appropriately, it still seemed to get somewhat nervous when a mixture of companies with deep ties to terrorist organisations threatened the safety of the 32 layers themselves.

Anyway, there are times when the numbers are high, and that seems to be happening frequently, and we still don't know how many days it will take to make a zoning decision.

"Why don't you just request material from Legal?

"We're full, and they said no, not the investigation department."

What the hell is that? Are you giving me a real reward?

"Uh, then how?

"We ask an outside company information and credit research firm. Even if the law did it, it would end up the same."

"Oh, like Imperial Data Bank or Tokyo Commercial Research"

"That's right. Credit Safe, Experian, and then D&B."

Foreign information also contained many materials in foreign languages, which seemed to be one of the causes of the difficulty in navigating.

"Both Fangmura and Sanhao are fluent in foreign languages, aren't they? Bytes -"

"I won't! There will be a tremendously oooooooooo big difference between what you can talk about and reading the legal paperwork!?

First, it is impossible for outsiders to enter the selection process that requires such serious confidentiality.

Narise said she was tired too, just a little sympathetic.

"Ha... that's right. So, what the hell is going on today?

"Yeah, actually..."

We explained to Narise what happened in the past few days.

At first, he was Narise, who was listening with a smile, but as the story progressed, his expression gradually fell out, and at the end, he became like Nobu-san.

"- So this is the Return Stone."

I put some of that on the table, just a stone's throw.

Having heard the story to the end, Mr. Narise was stoned.

"Naruto-san?

"- Excuse me, it makes a little sense"

She rubbed her fingers against her temples so she could get a headache.

"Transfer?

"Yes."

"Are you talking about cancer?

"No, sir."

"Talking about moving?

"It's Relocation"

"Like a doctor in a pharmacy dorm?

"No, sir."

"Oh, speaking of which, I borrowed it, the Gate of Response to Heaven (* 1), it was interesting"

"It would. And that doesn't matter."

"... So, metastasis is about that metastasis, disappearing over here and showing up over there?

"Yes."

"A human?

"Yes."

"What about being a fly man?

"You won't. So far."

"Mr. Fangmura... even if it's some kind of weird drug..."

"Because I didn't do it."

Trinity watched the exchange with a dull laugh broke into our conversation.

"Well, you can't believe it, can you?"

"Huh."

"That's why you're here today."

I was slightly distracted by the blood from Narise when I heard that line.

"No way......"

"Well, shall we..."

That said, Sanko and I took our seats.

"Hey, wait a minute..."

Me and Sanho said in silence, like actors playing musicals.

"" - To the dungeon!

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

Narutose-san was still lumped as she was pulled to the first layer of Yoyogi.

"Oh, uh, Mr. Fangmura? I don't have to experience anything... you see, bungee jumping and screaming machines have come through where I can."

"Was there something you couldn't do?

"That's right. Seniors like the planner tried to put me on a screaming machine, and they bring me a plan that looks like a retard."

"Huh."

"That's because, for the most part, there's a lot of pressure on the staff to be in tune... because they treat women who can't read the air when they say no"

"Mistakes are tough, too"

"Yeah, well...... how do you know?!

"It was on JDA's profile."

"Yeah...... that's still there"

Well, it's been years, so whatever it is about the profession that makes use of that background, it was probably already black history for him.

"Aren't you good around here?

That said, Sancho stopped at a passage that would soon be a dead end.

The destination is a spacious room a little further away. From here, it would be a little over ten meters.

"Are you sure you want to do this?

"Well, other than the developers, it's the first metastasis experience in the world, right? Because it's much rarer than private space travel."

"Yeah eh..."

If you call it a space trip to go a little further ahead of the stratosphere, the time will be right around the corner for anyone to experience it, but the times when metastases can be experienced, say a few meters, usually don't come after a little time.

It's certainly a rare experience in that sense. Though I feel overwhelmingly defeated by the looks and experiences.

"Well, Sanho, wait at the destination point. Right. We'll clock it and transfer it in three minutes."

Copy that, sir.

"Fangmura, come on..."

"It's okay. I've experimented with it many times."

"Really?"

"True."

I gave her the return stone.

"When you give the signal, 'let's use' it, be aware"

"Yep."

"And this is important, but be yourself well aware of the extent to which you allow it to transfer. Don't forget your hair."

"What happens if you forget?

"Er... gone?

"Don't you have one! Danger!!"

"As it were, well, somewhat. But if you're conscious, you'll be fine."

"Huh?

"Yes, we have ten seconds."

"Oh, hey, hey"

"Be aware of the areas you transfer. All right?"

She looked like she was ready, looking around her body and touching it with her hands.

"Three, two, one, go ahead!

The moment I said that, the stone in her hand shimmered pale - she was gone from the spot.

Then, soon, from a little over ten meters away, I heard a surprise.

"Damn!

Trinity is over there, and the reason I'm over here is insurance when the transfer of my (...) kake (...) was first reproduced by me.

If I were over there at that time, it would be a little catastrophic, I'm so sorry about the lucky sketch.

When I heard the voice, I slowly walked to the transfer point.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

"Guys. How was it?

"The feeling is that Mr. Fangmura, who was in front of me, was replaced by Mr. Sanhao in an instant..."

There is not so clear a difference in the background of one layer of Yoyogi.

Of course, it's part of the aisle over there, and this one's a room, so the shape is very different, but that means there's no big difference in the background texture.

"Experience it. What, but I still can't believe it. Actually, if they say it's a trick, they're going to believe it."

"Well, it's a few meters, and there's not much change. Now, once you experience it and get used to it, next thing you know, take this."

That's what I said, I gave Mr. Narise the stone with the white circle on it.

"What, are you still doing it?

"This is the real deal. Well, three good, nice to meet you."

Copy that, sir.

With that said, Sancho summoned all Arsuls in his shadow.

Except for Gracic in the office, Durtwin in in my shadow, and Graysat at Kathy's, Cavus and Icelem, and a glass.

It's a pretty big space, so all three of them fit in this room.

If we used metastatic stones, it was clear that there were small problems that had nothing to do with the average human being.

It's a matter of leaving the Arsuls behind in the shadows.

If there is no space, that is, if there is a transfer from one layer to another, they catch up across the shadows, but if there is a transfer across the space, that is, if there is a transfer to a different layer, they are left behind in the layer before the transfer.

The only way to take him was to transfer with him.

If you can do that, you might think it would be possible for all of the parties to transfer at the same time, but that doesn't allow it.

Trinity said to avoid the metastasis of my body alone, while also raising the question of which human being I consider to be a user. I'm sorry about this, but I can't help it. Murder that cannot be prevented must be avoided from the beginning.

"Okay, I'm coming."

The moment I said that, Sanko and the Arsuls were gone.

Ms. Narise, who was watching it, raised her admiration.

"Looking at it in front of you, it's like a SF movie."

Star Trek Some kind of metastasis comes with an effect that looks like it, but the effect of the metastatic stone is so pale that the stone glows and the metastasis itself has no effect.

It's like a self-produced feature produced by Per SF Research in an era when the medium was still a film. Oh, still doing enough to sharpen the film?

"Next up, then, is Mr. Narise. There are three good destinations to transfer to, so don't worry."

"Huh."

Once she experienced it, she got used to it a little bit or metastasized it at her own time.

In the space where she disappeared, I spent some time checking to see if I'd forgotten anything, and then I called Dortwin and moved to layer 21 with her.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

At the destination of the transfer, Narise looked at the lake under the hill in a blink of an eye, and Sanyo looked interesting.

"All right, we're all clear to move."

Sancho walked into the DP house on the occasion of my arrival. I guess I'll get some supplies done first.

"Could this be..."

Narise said as she looked back at the orange woods that spread in the opposite direction.

"- What's the 21st floor?

"That's right. When I first showed you, you said you wanted to go."

"That's well, yes..."

She looked up at the DP house built there, looking down the lake on the other side again, and again at the Orange Forest.

"I don't know what I'm talking about anymore...... that's a tough one. It's like the world of cartoons and movies."

"Because that's what the dungeon itself looks like"

"Huh."

Three good things, but when I looked up, I called out.

"Seniors. This is 21 floors for once, so it's dangerous if you're confused. Would you like to come inside?

Apparently the replenishment is over.

"Right. If the dragonfly comes, it's a pain in the ass."

The Arsuls are cleaning the perimeter, but there are flying monsters on the 21st floor.

He can't be so easily prevented from flying from afar.

I walked into the DP house with Narise.

Sitting on the couch in the center, Narise, who was initially depressed, was also resurrected when Sanho finished making coffee and looked around the room with interest.

"How was it?

"It didn't seem very real... but it's very useful for exploring dungeons, isn't it? Especially now that Safe Area activity begins."

You don't have to go on a long and dangerous journey to get to the safe area instantly.

With the ease of going to the next lab, you will have access to safe area facilities. Costs should drop dramatically, both financially and humanly.

"But this, from what I've heard you explain, doesn't it mean that in a dungeon, you can steal someone else's possessions all you want?

In fact, Narise is right, as long as her hands are touched by things, she can teleport with them. Unless you have the same stone, you won't even be able to chase them.

"Besides, right? Maybe with returning stones and demonic crystals, outside the dungeon. Because placement and discounting doesn't mean you can do all you want to thieves?

"If you can apply it to humans, kidnap them all you want."

Sanho added an extra word, Narise sighed loudly.

"Even if they let me experience it, I still can't believe it -"

She took over the words, staring at the stone that she wanted to flatten a little, placed in front of her.

"- If so, I don't think people's societies are institutionalized to accept this"

Even after trying that incredible practicality, she clearly said so.

That kind of sense of balance is what Narise excels at. I'd love for you to stay put and stop us when we're about to run wild.

"Because that's, well, an item that would allow things to be impossible until now"

The present society is not designed on the assumption that it will be used. So even if something goes wrong, naturally.

That's the biggest reason why we can't publish Vaults and Storages. Even if it's not even against the law or ethics, it's obliterated only by the delusions and images of the masses that someone fans - those are the times.

However, although those are properties that belong to the individual, these are items.

Publication was possible in that it could be detached from the individual, as was the case with the disguised whey poi.

"On the other hand, once this becomes popular, the use of safe areas will go dramatically further, and I think the number of people dying in the dungeons will be greatly reduced."

Yes, that's what bothers me.

Something magically convenient makes you magically evil. But you can magically bring the gospel to the world.

"Do you think we should die, without letting it out in the world?

When asked, Narise shook her head after thinking for a while.

"Even if I did that now, I don't think I can stand to use it more than I know"

She followed one sigh.

"Of those who would have been helped with this, all the more so if we saw the death reports pile up"

The Dungeon Management Division is a department that looks directly at that reality.

Death reports of people who would have been helped had they been published. A decent nerve would do it.

"How about at first offering to organizations that have a very high rate of wear and tear, are disciplined and well managed - for example, the military?

"Is it the army..."

I hesitated a little.

"Whatever a professional organization like DAD, for example, would it not be used for a different purpose if it were offered to something like 'military' in a larger framework?

"Senior, 4.03 is fixed by stone at the destination of the transfer, so that's less of a fear."

"Oh, you're limiting it to use as a return stone, not a transfer stone, as originally planned."

"Huh? Could you possibly transfer it anywhere?

Narise said as a surprise.

Since the first explanation is the return stone, he seemed to think that he would just return to the location where he would be based.

Assuming, however, that the place where you can transfer is optional, the number of hassles assumed will jump even further.

"Huh? Yeah, well... there are quite a few problems and limitations in registering a destination"

Three good, you're so sweet. No, me too.

"So how about we make it a Yoyogi specific item for the moment and use it as a transfer device to a special position?

Trinity said that while lifting her own cup.

"One layer, eighteen and thirty-one?

Instead of jumping directly to the 32nd floor, it would be safer to let them use the stairs from the 31st floor hall for not being able to suddenly bring in something huge. Although convenience is a bit of a sacrifice.

"One layer will be enough for emergency evacuation, and the stones going to the 18 and 31 layers will be specially managed by JDA and sold with confirmation of use."

"Return stones are normally sold and used with JDA surveillance if you go down."

"That's right. And then the sales version can't be abused in general society if it incorporates the function that when you leave Yoyogi, it becomes garbage."

You mean you keep the return stone in the JDA just like a firearm?

"Yes."

"That's not bad. It might add a little bit to the JDA burden."

There won't be so many firearms to keep, but the return stone, depending on the price, will probably become available to everyone.

Narise, who heard it, hastily denied it.

"Eh, I can't do it right away. That's definitely not enough lockers."

"No, you'll be fine there"

"Huh?"

"Return stones are all the same, so all you have to do is put them together in one place, and then record the number of pieces you keep with Explorer ID."

Taking that, Sanoko said, "If you ask me, it's a banking method."

The 10,000 yen bill deposited by the depositor and the 10,000 yen bill to be withdrawn is fine as long as it is the same 10,000 yen. It doesn't have to be the same bill.

The return stone would be the same if it had no expiration date.

"I see."

"But this, if you sell super express tickets to the safe area by name, you're going to be disappointed and profitable now, seniors."

"You..."

With the JDA-managed system that came out earlier, the problems I feared until the other day would largely be solved. For that reason, Sanko seems to be wearing a van soon.

Sure, that way, it seemed like it could be solved except for theft in the dungeon.

Besides, I wonder if organizations like to secure areas in the safe area would have money. It's going to sell silly even if it's a little expensive...

"You have to get the infrastructure in place first."

When I heard that, Mr. Narise looked strange.

"Infrastructure? Don't you just transfer?

We explained to Naruto the infrastructure for the transfer.

She was listening with a polite note of it.

"Does that mean that the human appearing at that point needs to leave immediately and go outside the designated area in order to transfer to the registered point?

"That's right. Being in the same place may cause the next accident that comes into contact with someone who has been transferring"

In fact, if there is an obstacle at the destination of the transfer, the metastasis is starting to fail, but if you do it too strictly, it can be a fatal failure in an emergency.

Therefore, there is a certain margin at the destination of the transfer, so that the transfer occurs to an area in which there is no overlap.

That said, if many humans have metastasized at the same time, there will be examples of how to fail. In other words, the user needs to get out of the transfer point as quickly as possible after the transfer.

"He said he needed something that explicitly stated the transfer point"

'Cause if you don't, you might end up blocking it by mistake.'

"I didn't know you deliberately blocked the metastasis point and interfered with the metastasis..."

"It's possible at the moment. We need to improve our accuracy as an infrastructure by crushing every single one of those little operational problems."

What you made appropriately on the run can't be that perfect.

In this case, just because it can metastasize, it has enough performance to close your eyes for a little trouble or glitch.

"I guess the biggest problem is the number of pieces. You can't have that many."

"I guess so. Then the price will be too high."

"If you say it at cost, it's almost zero, but this. Return stones, mostly just seniors' hourly wages, so what's 1,000 yen?

"My hourly rate is such a cheap wack?!

No, if you're a part-time worker, you might call it a pretty high hourly rate, but if you're a regular hire for a major company, your hourly rate would be about 3,000 yen normal for your age.

Even the most regular employment, if you work longer in a black department, and you don't get overtime allowance at the end of the sentence, sometimes situations arise that are not laughable if you convert it to 300 yen an hour. Let's chip.

"Yes, no, seniors. You can do a lot more in an hour. That's why I converted the price per piece. Seniors' hourly rates are incredibly high!

"Three good. Too much follow-ups"

"What hourly rate... is this made by Mr. Fangmura?! Not picking it somewhere or something?

"OH...... Three good, I'm sweet"

Trinity made her tongue out small as she posed as a heck. This guy, maybe, he's not doing it on purpose.

No matter how much Narise says you know who I am...

"Hey, Mr. Fangmura can put in metamagic... or something?

"If I could do that, I wouldn't build a stone like this."

It's called metastatic magic. If you can use something like that, you won't build a metastatic stone.

"That's why the problem is number over price. I don't like the life I make of this."

"Senior, that's a lot to worry about lately, isn't it?"

"Leave me alone."

"For the price, if you respect Naruto's idea of wanting to reduce the number of victims, you can set the return stone low and the transfer stone 18 and the transfer stone 31 high"

"Is that okay?

"Even we'd better have fewer Yoyogi victims. Fill that area with three good ones. But really, it's impossible to make enough to go out to all the explorers, and there's also the ingredients."

"Materials?"

"Don't tell me, but I need the Demonic Crystal, which is currently being admired."

"Oh...... it"

In the Tsukuba case, demonic crystals have disappeared from the market in the Kanto area.

Getting it now would be pretty tough.

"I'm planning to go to the museum again soon, so I'm sure I can hunt to some extent then."

The next target is Skeleton. That guy has a pretty good number on dropping demonic crystals. This is your chance to get a lot of them.

"Hall? Is it a wandering hall?!

"Yes, there was something I wanted to ask the Doctor that I was waiting for you in the study for a moment... and if there was anything I wanted to ask, should I finally ask you?

"Shall I come..."

"I guess this is the last time I can go easy for the moment. So if you really want to ask"

"Okay. I'll talk to you upstairs."

"We're going to the hall now, but in confidence."

"I know."

"Senior, if this gets popular, wouldn't an eight-layer pork skewer be a hippo?

"I don't think explorers wandering about eight floors will fly to eighteen at once... but if they do, they will open stores to eighteen floors"

"Uh, the sponsors look big, right there"

It's not the private sector. It seems like there's an organization involved, that one.

"So do you want to stay here today? You're off tomorrow, aren't you?

When I said that, Narise dropped her shoulder blatantly.

"I wish I could stay, but I have to work tomorrow."

"I'm sorry to hear that."

I offered my condolences from the bottom of my heart.

"Ah, seniors! Oh my God!!

"Hey, what's up?"

"If this goes public, you won't be able to use the excuse because it takes time to haul luggage in the safe area!

Sure it is. However, a lot of people won't be convinced by 'Yada'.

"That was a blind spot...... I guess not 'yadda'"

"I'm going to be pressed to contribute to humanity or something."

"Hmm."

"Let's just say I don't take it on because I don't like you anymore?

Well, they don't have to deny it either. Because I just don't like it. But...

"Kids or you. No matter how troublesome it is, let's not act like those horns stand up"

"I don't want to be told by seniors alone."

"I have a TPO. At least, sometimes."

"Is that like bragging..."

We put that issue ahead of us, and so far we've gone on a 21-layer tour of Narise.

That's how I didn't dream that day.
