＜Infinite Dendrogram＞

□ A man's story

As I said earlier, Ichiro Shizushima (Sijima Ichiro) is one of the followers of.

Besides, the Louis boy didn't seem to remember, but I and Dear Lunar Night also know his family.

Until we got married, Shizushima was the head of the combat unit.

After he married Mrs. Farica and stayed, me and Mr. Moon and Night went to celebrate.

Well, where is Shizushima now?

Of course, we know that.

But there are other things you need to talk about in order to talk about it.

Let's start with the formation of the Moon Sessions.

No, don't panic. Please don't be angry.

It's a really relevant story.

It's something you can't take off even when it comes to talking about him now.

◇

Well, Fujiyashi, as you already know, happened from Japan nearly a century ago now.

At that time, the person who became the first bishop of the Moon and Night, the ancestor of the Moon and Night, Susan Yueshi, was a doctor.

But at the time, it was the dark post-war period. There wasn't enough stuff for reconstruction, and people were stuck with death.

Those whose wounds are worsening every day as a result of the disaster of war, those who are dysfunctional and sick from undernourishment, those who break their hearts and hurt themselves and approach death. They said it looked like hell.

Master Tsukishi is an aspiring doctor and said he kept looking at his patients with an outward look at his money.

But if people get together that way, that's the same thing as collecting death.

A large number of patients have died. Patients who could have saved them if they were in full condition also died because of insufficient medication and food.

That's how he saw it.

of many, a desperate look at the world.

I would also say the disease was out of my mind, but so to speak, it must have been like they had an incurable disease.

Because he is dead from the heart.

Master Tsukishi was greatly troubled as a doctor saving people.

He wants his patients to at least hope for something.

But in those days when all things are scarce, there is no means except disease and famine, which are the cause of their despair.

Until Japan rebuilds, this is a time when we still need a temporary time.

So he guides the totals.

If there's no hope here, you just have to imagine a world.

Even if I don't have something, I need to save my mind first.

"Away from the shackled flesh, to the world of true souls"

"Sing your freedom as your soul goes in a free world."

You know, it's our doctrine.

That doctrine is the beginning of the Moon Sessions.

Dream of the freedom that your souls desire, all those who are incapacitated.

It's a reality escape word. Let it also be a word of fantasy, a word of paranoia.

But thinking in your own soul… is a word that your heart does not give up on living.

Yeah, that's right. "Think fun and feel better," that's all the original meaning of doctrine.

It's also called cult ideology, but that's all we're talking about at all.

I'm talking about what I call seminars and mental health now.

Most importantly, during the centenary period, Japan's economic development and the enrichment of goods deteriorated, and since it is now in the form of a cult, there is no denying that it is called a cult.

Not only sick people who have lost hope, but also young people who have pessimised the future, etc. are now coming in.

The current Bishop, the Lunar Night himself, seems to have something to worry about, both the fundamental ideas put forward by the Lunar Life and the present form that has degenerated during the centenary.

Huh? "Don't let people kidnap people who are worried about the way religious organizations are," huh?

I can't help that. Because moonlight problems and personality and sexuality are another problem.

Plus, you might want to "at least keep the person you like by your side"...

Hahaha, you're right, bird. It doesn't change how annoying it is to you.

◇

Well, let's get back to it.

He was a supporter who gave birth to the Lunar Party due to such circumstances, but the hospital continued to run since then.

On the surface, it has nothing to do with the Moon Sessions.

Besides, the specialty is not the same as a normal hospital.

Well... it's called end-of-life care (terminal care).

Hospital for people who suffer from difficulty and are on the verge of dying to peacefully meet their last moments.

Of course, if possible, I will focus on life extension and recovery.

Ichiro Shizushima was a patient at that hospital.

Don't get me wrong here, you didn't recommend incoming to a dying patient, you were admitting believers as well.

Yeah, it's not that dirty. has not done anything so that his hands turn behind him. True. Don't say "suspicious to repeat" or anything.

Now, let's return to Mr. Shizushima.

Shizushima suffered from a certain difficulty.

It is a disease in which the limit of life has been laid down.

I've worked my hands off for treatment since childhood and still didn't see a cure.

So four years ago in this time, he arrived at the Moon Sessions. It must have seemed good to distract you from imminent death.

"Didn't your family disagree?,"?

I can't tell you the details of his birth in terms of personal information, but at the time of his arrival, he was lonely all his life, let's just say.

Either way, he incoming and became our follower.

We are a religion that took a century to distract, so I'd like to think that he, who had been pronounced four years to live, had also been relieved of that fear a little bit.

Yeah, that's right.

His life expectancy, as of his arrival four years ago, is four years.

Just by now, it was the limit of his life.

Oh, but two years ago now? I found a cure for his illness.

However, the success rate is about 10%. If the body reacts to rejection by the cure, it dies instantly.

Yeah, he (...) didn't choose that cure then.

◇

Now, a turning point comes to him, who was living a day that diverted his attention from impending death.

It is the launch of < Infinite Dendrogram >.

By the way, what do you two think is the true value of VR?

No, I don't want to go out of the way again. It's a necessary story, a foreword.

So, what do you think?

Of course, the VR we're talking about here is dive-type, not a failure typical of < NEXT WORLD >, like < Infinite Dendrogram > … assuming it's a complete game that was considered a dream game in the past, though.

Yes, you're right, "I can transfer five senses from reality".

Where it gets clogged, if it's that level of VR, even if you're a person who doesn't function properly except for brain cells (thinking) in real life, dive and you can move a healthy five bodies.

So since the beginning of the twenty-first century, VR equipment has also been handled and funded. Those were many patients… they were also hopeful for the faithful.

Most importantly, it wasn't some VRs I funded that eventually showed up as complete systems, and I didn't even have any prior information.... Oh, this is irrelevant, isn't it?

And if we talk this far, you'll already understand.

How much Mr Sizima wanted it.

A moment and an impending deadline for life, even if you are desperately looking away.

In how much pain he would have wished to live, to live (...).

The thought cannot even be inferred from me or from the moon and night.

On the day of the launch of < Infinite Dendrogram >, we had checked all VR-related items, so < Infinite Dendrogram > also immediately secured a certain number of initial lots and provided Shizushima with one of the obtained.

That's how he logged into < Infinite Dendrogram > and became Sizima Ichiro.

To escape the afterlife of remaining reality and live a free life in < Infinite (true) Dendrogram (world of souls) >.

He has been freed.

From the bitterness of going to death, from the pain of inactivation, from a world without even hope for itself.

He sang a second raw song, still with a body that moves, a special power, a fullness incomparable to the present world.

I'm sure he was feeling fuller than any of us at the time.

Because everything I never got before was there.

That's how he lives his days forgetting his imminent death in reality… One day he met a set of mothers and children.

Parents and children who can't escape imminent despair (monsters), just waiting to die.

That would have been overlapping with him in reality.

Or it could have overlapped with a family that once died.

But when he became a master, he could save his mother and son.

All he had to do was wait for death to save the lives of his mother and son, who had only to wait for death.

Accidental encounter. But I guess that was fate for him.

He has since continued to interact with his mother and son, making one day a real family on the border.

From her days with her family, she got warmth she'd never felt before.

Yeah, this is... what I heard from his mouth.

That's how he got his family, and he was given his own children as well.

What was impossible here.

The joy was irreplaceable to him, and... triggered it as well.

He remembered... himself on this side (...).

I'm still connected to the breathing apparatus and the infusion, that I'm a half-dead person in a life support device.

That you only have about two months left to live.

He doesn't have any more time, even in those hours, for about six months.

To be old with my wife, to see my stepson grow,... and to die without even knowing the face of my real child who is born.

That would have been, for him, a reminder of despair.

How much, you must have thought it was a shame.

But - he couldn't break it.

I was finding new hope.

He decided to get that cure he once ran away from.

Of course, the medical condition is progressing more than before.

The success rate drops, and the better the 3%.

If you succeed, it will be called a miracle.

But still... he decided to operate.

I heard it, too, moonlight. "Why?",.

he answered. "For the family and the future of living," he said.

That's how he got back to this side...... treated.

◇

Now, his story is over.

"And then... what happened?,"?

Bird King.

A miracle is a miracle because it doesn't happen that way.
