D Genesis, 3 Years after Dungeon Appeared

Then, for two days, Miyoshi practiced prayer on the first floor, and while taking care not to encounter the Explorer, I rushed through the dungeon to mark the replenishment of the DP house on the 21st floor and the back of the base as a transfer point.

Mr. Naruse, JDA's Dungeon Management Division appeared in our office at the end of the month, seemingly busy with the bid processing of the safety class.

So, Saturday, when most of the preparations are done.

I met Mr. Naruse for the first time in a few days on the day when the sunny weather passed beautifully.

Besides, it's not our place, it's the backyard of a bootcamp rented from Yoyogi Dungeon. Even though it was Saturday, Miyoshi contacted me and called me.

"What are you doing here today?

"I'm sorry I'm busy."

"No, you'd rather call me and say thank you...."

Naruse said with a bitter smile.

"I've already received so many applications that I think it might be harassment, and I'm glanced at the paperwork from morning to morning. I can't do normal business at all."

Safe area bidding was limited to Japanese organizations (...) or (...). (...) As a result, bids were received from countries, companies and individuals around the world.

It seems that there were a number of harassment applications online.

"There's a huge number of organizations that bid on all the lots, right? What are you going to do if all the bids are won?"

"Shouldn't we resell it?

"That's where the resale ban is set. I can't even lend it."

"Can we still welcome researchers from other organizations?

"Well...."

It will be difficult to prohibit all interactions with the organization.

"Because it is a bid, isn't it simply decided in the order in which the amounts indicated are higher?

"If you do that, most of the sections will be filled in China and the United States. Is Nokoto a federation of companies and the media?"

"The press?"

"Many people are mistaken for the right to broadcast the Olympics. After that, it's an online system with lots of money."

"Netflirting?

It is a difficult question whether to call it the media, but in the sense of a distributor of information, you might say so.

They'll be distributing a series of documentaries.

"That's how it feels. So there are country-specific restrictions and industry-specific restrictions."

"--Everyone's trying to look through that net?

Naruse looked up at the sky as he turned his eyes like he said there was no sushi.

I wonder if there will be a huge number of applications under no good reason for the lottery. It's like a courtroom sitting.

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

The number of lots is not a big deal, and even if I took a deposit of 1 million yen in one place, it would be only 100 million yen in 100 places.

There is no way we can suppress the only chance we have in the world.

"That's why, for example, in 10 areas, if a company in a certain industry crosses the pass line and five companies are lost due to industry restrictions, the winning company's information is needed to make the decision."

Though it seems appropriate to draw lots, if companies with deep ties to terrorist organizations are mixed up, the safety of the 32 layers themselves is threatened, and it seems to have become somewhat nervous.

Anyway, there are a lot of them, and it seems that they happen frequently, and I still don't know how many days it will take for the division to be decided.

"Shouldn't we just ask Legal for the materials?

"We're full, and they said we're not investigating."

What is that? Are you trying to make fun of me?

"Well, then how?

"I'm asking an external corporate information credit research firm. It would be the same even if the law were to do it."

"Oh, like the Imperial Data Bank or Tokyo Chamber of Commerce and Industry Research."

"That's right. Crady Safe, Experian, D&B."

There were a lot of foreign language materials in the information outside the country, and that seemed to be one of the reasons why it was difficult to navigate.

"Yoshimura-san and Miyoshi-san are proficient in foreign languages, right? Bytes..."

"I won't! There's a huge difference between being able to talk and reading legal paperwork!?

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

I felt a little sympathetic about Naruse's tiredness.

"Hah... that's right. So, what is it today?

Um, actually...

We briefed Naruse on what had happened in the past few days.

At first it was Naruse who was listening with a smile, but as the story progressed, his expression gradually fell out, and finally became like a noble face.

"--That's why this is the Return Stone."

I laid it on a number of tables, all I could see was stone.

Naruse, who listened to the story to the end, was a stone as expected.

"Naruse-san?

"--I 'm sorry, it's a little meaningful."

She rubbed her temples with her index fingers so that she could get a headache.

"Transfer?

"Yes, it is."

"Are you talking about cancer?

"No."

"Are you talking about moving?

It's a transfer.

"A doctor in a typical pharmacy?

"No."

"Ah, speaking of which, it was interesting to borrow the Gate of Honten (* 1)."

"I guess. Well, that doesn't matter."

"... then, metastasis, that metastasis that disappears over here and appears over there?

"Yes, it is."

"Humans?

"Yes, it is."

"Become a flies man?

"I won't. For now."

"Yoshimura-san... even with some weird medicine..."

"I didn't do it."

Miyoshi, who was watching the exchange with a giggle, interrupted our conversation.

"Well, I don't believe it."

Ha.

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

When I heard the line, Naruse drew a slight amount of blood.

"No way...."

Well, shall we...

That said, Miyoshi and I barely stood up.

"Wait a minute..."

Miyoshi and I spoke in unison as actors in the musical.

"--to the dungeon!

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

Naruse was still pulling his hips as he was pulled to the first floor of Yoyogi.

"Ah, uh, Yoshimura-san? I don't have to experience anything else... there, bungee jumps, screaming machines, I've been through wherever I can."

"Was there something you couldn't do?

"Of course there is. Senpai, like a planner, put me on a screaming machine and brought me a crazy plan like that."

Ha.

"That's because the pressure on the staff is usually strong... if you refuse, you'll be treated like a woman who can't read the air."

Mistakes are tough too.

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

"It was on JDA's profile."

"Yeah... oh, it's still there."

Well, it's been years, so if you're in a profession that makes use of your background, it might already be black history for you.

"Isn't it nice around here?

That said, Sanyoshi stopped in a hallway that quickly became a dead end.

The transfer destination is a large room just a short distance away. Ten meters from here, maybe.

Are you sure you want to do this?

"Well, it's the first transfer experience in the world besides the developer, right? It's much more rare than private space travel."

"Hmm...."

If you refer to space travel as going a little further into the stratosphere, the time when anyone can experience it will soon come, but even if it is a few meters, the time when people can experience the transition will not normally come after a little time.

It is certainly a rare experience in that sense. I feel overwhelmingly defeated in terms of appearance and experience.

"Now, Miyoshi, wait at the transfer point. Yeah, that's right. The clock will shift in three minutes."

Roger that.

"Yoshimura, come on...."

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

Really?

"True."

I gave her the Return Stone.

"When you give the signal, be aware of it and say, 'Let's use it.'"

Um...

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

"What happens if I forget?

"Er... is it gone?

"Isn't that right? Danger!!"

"Well, somewhat. But if you're conscious, you'll be fine."

"Huh?

"Yes, 10 seconds left."

"Hey, hey, hey."

"Be aware of the area you are transferring. Let's see..."

She looked around her body and touched it with her hands, looking as if she was ready.

"Three, two, one, please!

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

Then, immediately, I heard a surprising voice from just 10 meters away.

"Ugh!

Miyoshi is over there, and the reason I'm here is because of the insurance I made the first time my transfer was reproduced.

If I were there, it would be a bit of a catastrophe for lucky skates.

I heard that voice and walked slowly to the transfer point.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

"Guys. How was it?

"As a feeling, Yoshimura-san in front of me was replaced by Miyoshi-san in an instant....."

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

Of course, the other side is part of the aisle and this is the room, so the shape is very different, but there is no big difference in the texture of the background.

"I can't believe you're still experiencing it. In fact, if they say it's magic, they'll believe it."

"Well, it's only a few meters, so it doesn't change much. Now, once you've experienced it and got used to it, let's do it again."

That's what I said, and I gave Mr. Naruse a stone with a white circle.

"Eh, are you still doing it?

"This is the real thing. Okay, Miyoshi, nice to meet you."

Roger that.

That said, Miyoshi summoned all the Arsulz in his shadow.

Except for Graciek in the office, Dortwin in my shadow, and Graysat in Kathy's place, Cavas and Iceland, and Glass.

It was quite a big space, so all three of them fit in this room.

When we used the metallurgical stone, it became clear that there was a small problem that had nothing to do with ordinary people.

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

If they do not cross the space, that is, if they move from one layer to another, they catch up across the shadows, but if they cross the space, that is, if they move to a different layer, they are left behind in the layer before the transfer.

We had no choice but to transfer them together.

If you could, you might think it would be possible for all the parties to transfer at the same time, but we don't allow that.

It was to avoid the metastasis of my body, as Miyoshi said, even though the question arose as to which humans were considered to be users. This is a shame, but I can't help it. Murder that cannot be prevented must be avoided from the beginning.

Well, I'll be there.

At that moment, Miyoshi and Arsulz disappeared.

Naruse, who was watching, exclaimed.

"It looks like a science fiction movie in front of me."

The metastasis of Star Trek has an effect like that, but the effect of the metastasis stone is so pale that the stone glows, and the metastasis itself has no effect.

It feels like a self-made special shot produced by SF Grind in an era when the medium was still film. Ah, are you still doing enough to scrape the film?

Well, next up, Naruse. The transfer destination is Sanyoshi, so please transfer with peace of mind. "

Ha.

After experiencing it once, she became a little used to it and moved on at her own timing.

In the space where she disappeared, I spent some time making sure she didn't forget anything, and then I called Durtwin and moved on to the 21 floors together.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

At the transfer destination, Miyoshi was looking at the lake under the hill in a bewildered manner.

All right, everybody's been transferred safely.

Miyoshi entered the DP House on the occasion of my arrival. I think we can finish the replenishment first.

"Here, maybe..."

Naruse said looking back at the orange forest that spreads in the opposite direction.

"--21 floors?

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

"Well, that's true...."

She looked up at the DP house standing there, overlooking the lake on the other side again and seeing the orange forest again.

"I don't know what to say anymore... it's a mess. It's like the world of animation and movies."

"The dungeon itself feels like that."

Ha.

Miyoshi came out with a voice.

"Senpai, this is the 21st floor, so it's dangerous to be blurry. Would you like to come inside?

Looks like the supply is over.

I see. If the dragonflies fly in, it'll be a mess. "

Arsulz and the others are cleaning the surroundings, but there are monsters flying in the sky on the 21st floor.

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

I entered the DP house with Naruse.

Sitting on the central sofa, Naruse, who was initially blurred, also revived when Miyoshi finished brewing coffee and looked around the room with interest.

"How was it?

"I didn't think it was very real... but it's very useful for exploring dungeons. Especially now that the Safe Area activities have begun."

You don't have to go a long and dangerous journey to get to the safe area in no time.

You'll be able to use the Safe Area facilities with the ease of going to the lab next door. The cost should drop dramatically, both financial and human.

"But as far as I can tell, if you're in a dungeon, you can steal someone else's property.

In fact, Naruse is right, if you touch anything, you can teleport with it. You won't even be able to chase them unless you have the same stone.

"Besides, it is. Perhaps if we had the Return Stone and the Magic Crystal outside the dungeon, it would be more than just a scavenger or a shoplifter, but an all-you-can-steal act.

"If it can be applied to humans, kidnapping is all-you-can-do."

Miyoshi added an extra word, and Naruse sighed.

"Even if you let me experience it, I still can't believe it..."

She looked at the slightly flat stone placed in front of her eyes and inherited the words.

"--If so, I don't think human society has a system to accept this."

Even after trying out the amazing practicality, she said so clearly.

That sense of balance is where Naruse is excellent. I'd like you to stay put and stop when we're about to run wild.

"Well, it's an item that enables things that have never been possible before."

Today's society is not designed to take advantage of it. So even if something goes wrong, it's only natural.

That's the biggest reason why you can't publish your Vault or Vault. Even if it doesn't conflict with the law or even with ethics, it's an era when someone's fantasies and images of the masses are the only ones that stir it up.

However, there are properties belonging to, but this is an item.

Like the camouflage Whippoy, it was possible to publish in that it could be separated from the.

"On the other hand, if this becomes widespread, the use of the safe area will go dramatically, and I think the number of people dying in the dungeon will be very low."

Yes, that's the trouble.

Something as convenient as magic makes you evil as magic. But you can also bring the gospel to the world like magic.

"Do you think we should die without letting it out?

When asked, Mr. Naruse shaken his head after thinking for a while.

"Even if I did, I don't think I can stand using it any longer than I already know."

She followed by a sigh.

"This is even more true when we see death reports of people who would have been saved."

Dungeon Control is a department that sees the reality first-hand.

Reports of deaths of people who would have been helped had they been made public. A decent nerve will bear it.

"How about we start with a fairly high rate of wear and tear, a disciplined and well-managed organization - for example, the military?

"The army....."

I hesitated a little.

"If you're a professional organization like DAD, for example, and you provide it to the military in a big framework, will it be used for another purpose?

"Senpai, since 4.03 is fixed by stone, there is little fear of that."

"Oh, as originally planned, we're restricting it to use as a return stone, not a metastasis stone."

"Hmm? Could it be transferred anywhere?

Naruse said in surprise.

Since the first explanation was the Return Stone, it seemed to me that I would just return to my base location.

However, assuming that the location where it can be transferred is arbitrary, the number of additional hassles assumed will jump.

"Hmm? Yeah, well... there's a lot of problems and restrictions with registering a destination."

Miyoshi, you're sweet. No, me too.

Well, how about we make it an item dedicated to Yoyogi for the time being and use it as a transfer device to a special location?

Miyoshi said that while lifting his cup.

"One, eighteen and thirty-one?

Instead of jumping directly to the 32nd floor, using stairs from the 31st floor hall will increase safety by preventing you from suddenly bringing in something huge. Convenience is a little sacrificed.

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

"Do you mean to sell the Return Stone normally and let those who go down use it with JDA surveillance?"

"That's right. And the sales version can't be abused in the general society if it incorporates the function of becoming garbage away from generational trees."

"Return stones, like firearms, are kept in JDA."

"It's me."

"It's not bad. The burden on JDA may increase slightly."

There won't be many people who keep firearms, but the stone of return depends on the price, but it will probably be used by everyone.

When I heard that, Naruse hastily denied it.

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

"No, it'll be fine there."

Huh?

"All return stones are the same, so all you have to do is keep them in one place, and then record only the number of Explorer IDs and items you have."

In response, Miyoshi said, "If you say so, it's a banking system."

The 10,000 yen bill deposited by the depositor and the 10,000 yen bill withdrawn may be used as long as it is the same as 10,000 yen. You don't have to have the same bill.

The return stone will be the same if there is no expiration date.

I see.

"But if I sold this as a super express ticket to the safe area, I'd be making a lot of money right now, senpai."

"You...."

With the system managed by JDA mentioned earlier, the problems we feared until recently will be largely solved. For that reason, Miyoshi seems to be starting her own bag right away.

It certainly seemed like that way we could solve anything but theft in the dungeon.

Besides, I'm sure any organization that would secure space in the safe area would have money. It's a little expensive, but it seems like it's going to sell stupidly....

"We need to set up the infrastructure first."

When I heard that, Mr. Naruse looked strange.

"Infrastructure? Isn't that just a transfer?

So we explained to Naruse the infrastructure for the transfer.

She was listening with a careful note of it.

"Does that mean that in order to transfer to a registered point, people who appear at that point need to leave the designated area immediately?

"That's right. Being in the same location may result in the next accident that comes into contact with the transferred person."

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

Therefore, there was a certain margin at the transfer destination, and it began to move to a region where there was no overlap.

That said, if a lot of people metastasize at the same time, there will be examples of failures. In other words, the user needs to exit the transfer point as quickly as possible after the transfer.

"We need something that clearly indicates the point of transfer."

"Otherwise, I might have mistakenly blocked it."

"I wonder if deliberately blocking the metastasis point would interfere with the metastasis..."

"At the moment, it is possible. We need to improve our accuracy as an infrastructure while crushing each of these small operational issues."

Properly crafted in a rush can't be so perfect.

However, in this case, just because metastasis is possible, there is enough performance to close your eyes for a little trouble or defect.

"The biggest problem is probably the number. I can't have that many."

"I guess so. It's going to be expensive."

"In terms of cost, it's almost zero. The return stone is almost exclusively senpai's hourly wage, so is it 1,000 yen?

"Is my hourly wage that cheap?!

No, if you work part-time, it might be quite a high hourly wage, but if you are a regular employee of a major company, it would be normal to pay about 3,000 yen an hour at your age.

Even in regular employment, if you work longer in a black department and there is no overtime allowance at the end of the sentence, sometimes situations arise where it is not funny that it was 300 yen when converted to an hourly wage. Let's chicken.

"No, Senpai, you can do more in an hour. That's why the price is converted per piece. Senpai's hourly wages are really high!

"Miyoshi, too many followers"

"The hourly wage... is Yoshimura-san making this?! Aren't we supposed to pick it up somewhere?

"Oh... Miyoshi, my waki is sweet"

Miyoshi, while taking the pose, "Heh", gave out his tongue small. I don't suppose he's doing it on purpose.

No matter how much Naruse knows who I am....

"Yoshimura-san can transfer magic...?

"If I could do that, I wouldn't make stones like this."

It's called metastasis magic. If you can use such a thing, I won't make a metallurgical stone.

"That's why the problem is more than the price. I don't want to make a life like this."

"Senpai, you've been worried a lot lately."

Leave me alone.

"As for the price, if you respect Naruse's idea of wanting to reduce the number of victims, you can set the return stone cheaper and the metallurgy stone 18 and the metallurgy stone 31 high."

"Are you sure?

"We'd better have fewer Yoyogi casualties. Please pack the area with sanyoshi. However, it's really impossible to make enough for all Explorers, and there are some ingredients."

"Materials?"

"I'm not telling you, I need a magic crystal that's in the list of admirable products right now."

"Ah... that's..."

In the Tsukuba incident, magic crystals have disappeared from the market in the Kanto area.

It will be hard to get it now.

"I'm going to the museum again soon, so I think I'll be able to hunt to some extent at that time."

The next target is Skeletons. He has quite a few magic crystals to drop. This is your chance to get a lot.

"Hall? Wandering hall?!

"Yes, I just wanted to ask the doctor to wait in the study... if there's anything he'd like to ask me, why don't we ask him?

"Let's go...."

"Perhaps the easiest way to get there is this one for the time being. So if there's anything I really want to ask you,"

"I see. I'll talk to him."

"We're going to the museum now, but confidentially."

"I know."

"Senpai, if this becomes widespread, would an eight-story pork skewer become a beauty?

"Explorers wandering around the eighteenth floor won't fly to the eighteenth floor at once... but if they do, they'll open the store to the eighteenth floor."

Ah, the sponsor seems to be big, right there.

It seems to involve a non-public organization, that is.

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

When I said so, Mr. Naruse dropped his shoulder openly.

"I wish I could stay, but I'm still working tomorrow."

"I'm sorry."

I expressed my condolences from the bottom of my heart.

"Ah, senpai! Oh my God!!

"No, what is it?"

"If this is published, you won't be able to use the excuse that it will take time to carry your baggage in the safe area!

That's true. However, there will be a lot of people who are not convinced by Yada.

"That was a blind spot... I don't think so."

"I'm about to be forced to contribute to humanity."

Hmm.

"I don't like you anymore, so why don't you tell me you won't take it?

Well, let's not deny it. Because I just like it and hate it. But...

"Kids or you. No matter how much trouble it takes, let's stop acting like that."

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

"I have a TPO. At least sometimes."

"Does that sound like something you're proud of..."

We went on a 21-storey tour of Naruse today, ahead of the problem.

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