＜Infinite Dendrogram＞

□ [Saint Knight] Ray Sterling

I don't know much about her.

Only talked to herself twice. Only when I was first introduced to myself and when I promised to meet you today.

What she told me was her name and that she was [the Great Sage].

I heard stories about her from Azrite and Liliana.

So here's what I heard:

Being two childhood friendly.

That her family left her to die in childhood and was lonely all her life.

But then he was found talented and nurtured by his predecessors [the Great Sage].

That she was young and rumored to be the most talented and capable of her brother in prison.

That a little before that [Gloria] incident, I was traveling with the lives of my predecessors.

That he became [the Great Sage] during his journey.

that he returned during the earlier King's Capital raid terror and worked with Tsanrong to deal with [the Flaming King].

That he began naming Fragman's surname only after his return.

That he is now engaged in the restoration of Royal Castle equipment.

That's about it.

I know there are a lot of memorabilia between them, but I haven't heard that far yet.

Nor do I know why I started calling myself Flagman.

Either way, you might be able to hear it around there today.

◇

I knocked on the lab door that was used by my predecessors [the Great Sage] and my brothers in the castle.

I immediately said, "Go ahead," and the door opened indoors without me having to open it.

There are many bookshelves and desks indoors, with a variety of instruments on the desk, as well as a large number of paper bundles.

At the heart of the room, which should also be called such a cluttered crucible of knowledge, she… Integra sat deeply in a chair quite large compared to her young physique.

Because I'm not wearing that tongari hat today, I look even shorter than a small nemesis.

She puts the bundle of paper she was reading on her desk and calls out to us.

"Hi. Welcome, Mr. Ray Sterling. And you. I just got my hands on it. It's a good time."

"Oh. Hello.... So, what are you doing today?

When I said that, Integra waved her fingers as she sat down in the chair.

Then the two chairs that were indoors moved towards us alone.

"Don't rush your business, sit down first. It's about two things to do, but it's going to be a little long."

"... right"

Encouraged, we sat in a chair that approached us.

Then again, the chair was moving out and moving to a position where it was easy to talk to Integra.

Not only that, but I was moving up to the little round table, pods and tea sets that were indoors, and I was starting to set up a tea party.

"... the Wizard's Room."

It's like an international animated movie I saw when I was a kid.

He's still wearing a robe, and when we met outside, he was wearing a witchy tongari hat, so he's the most wizarding person I've ever met in < Infinite Dendrogram > that I can't say enough about this fantasy...

As I watched for surprise and odd freshness, Integra was making me pour tea into an automatic moving tea pod with a grin.

"It's a simple application of local attribute solid operating magic. This water was also boiled with thermal energy amplification. If you know how it works, it's not much different than rubbing phosphorus."

When she said that, two teacups with tea came to us.

"But it's so strange to watch."

"If you say it's strange, you can also go to Legendaria sometime. It's not a magic trick like mine, it's a living piece of furniture."

Is that what animated movies are like... coming out to beauty and the beast?

"By the way, this tea leaf is also from Legendary. I have a habit, but it's my thing of choice. I hope you like it..."

"Um, let's have it"

That's what Nemesis said and put his mouth on tea, so I drink tea too.

A strange fragrance that I have never smelled in real life passes through my nose, but the flavour itself has a tannic, sweet and medium good taste that is easy to drink.

"Yum. Thanks."

"That was good. Well, shall we get down to business then? I have two things to do, but I'm just wondering which one I'm going to cut out of because they're both completely different things. But... I figured I'd start here."

Integra says that with something bothering her.

I sipped tea again in the meantime,

"Are you Ultimia's lover?

"Buuuuuuu......!?

Bad behavior was gushing out of my mouth.

"Whoa, whoa...!

Too much tea went into the bronchus......!

"Chi, no! Ray is not Azrite's lover or anything!

"Huh? So you're from Liliana? She's the one I saw first."

"Not that way either. Wow!?

While I was coughing, Nemesis was protesting violently as she blushed her face for some reason.

Uh, my bronchus is finally calming down.

"Chi, no. We're both important friends, but not boyfriends girlfriends or anything like that......!

"Hmm. By the way, I'm interested in the two bodies and their status. Very good property, isn't it? Especially Ultimia."

"No!

I mean, don't call your friend and king's deputy an excellent property or anything!

"... I feel sorry for my friends when they say 'I'm not interested in my body' so forcefully. So you've never even seen it? We bathed together a few years ago, but I think they're both pretty, don't you think?

"I can't believe I've seen it...!..................... ah"

..................... uh, yeah.

I've seen Azrite's. It's a mixed bath, and it was an accident.

"Oh, here's my first detection......... Huh? Do you have one? I've been really worried about your relationship?

"And anyway! Because there's no such thing as a lower heart or like each other as heterosexuality!

"... Hmm. Well, I see what you got. That concludes what I called you."

"Was that why the current sexual harassment question called, Lord!?

Nemesis is stunned, but I feel the same way.

Were you called to ask me if I was interested in you two naked or dating...

"No, no, it's something that interests me if there's a shadow of a man near us as a childhood tame. Anyway, we were both far from that. I can't help but be concerned."

"... you're a child, but you're not too much"

The same goes for Xun Yu and all, but I kind of feel like the kids I meet in Dendro are too mentally mature...

"Yeah?"

However, Integra tilted her neck strangely at my words.

"You're about the same age as Ultimia, right? Then I'm a little older."

Huh? Seriously?

I thought you were the right age on the outside, and I thought you said you were childhood friendly, but you had an age range...

"Excuse me......"

"Ha, I'm kidding. Nothing. I don't even care about tame mouths. Anyway, I don't use reverence other than my own deceased master. I don't care. I don't care. But remember, you're older, right?

"Ha... no, I get it"

But he seemed younger than Nemesis, and he was older than me even though he was Tian.

It wouldn't even be a long-lived race, like an elf called being in Legendary.

"... so how old are you actually?

"Don't ask a woman how old she is."

... could have been rude indeed.

"Let's move on to another matter. It's like an extra one."

Seriously, I was just like, "Are you a lover? 'Was it the point......

"Actually, I want you to show me your [Silver Wind]."

"Do you have silver?

"Yes, the famous Flagman... the last brilliant horse created by the first Flagman is another matter."

The last brilliant jade horse, huh? When I spoke to Mario at Calcellatan, I was talking about a five-horse prototype, or an experimental machine with new features... it seems to be the latter.

Besides... does that still mean that Integra's named Fragman surname is not a coincidence, but a name he inherited from a celebrity worker of civilization in the previous period?

... I don't care what you think. Isn't the real deal this way, not the sexual harassment question I asked you earlier?

"That's fine, but even for me, I need to ask you something about that flagman..."

"My surname...... you mean me and his relationship, right? We'll talk about it, including that."

That's what Integra said, pointing himself in the palm of his hand.

"First of all, I'm not the descendant of a famous man of the past. The master was also a flagman, but there is still no blood connection. It's simply a name we've inherited among our mentors."

"The name I've inherited among my mentors...... is it like a mark I'm going to inherit in a martial arts or entertainment?

"Oh. It's a heavenly custom. Not close, not far, I guess. My master was [the Great Sage], as well as inherited the name of Flagman. I also took the place of [The Great Sage] because my master died, and I started naming him Flagman. That said, even if you inherit your name, technology doesn't extend to the first generation that you've been called a celebrity."

"Is that what this is about?"

"That's why I've been wondering about your [Silver Wind]. That was before you got this."

"I knew the first Flagman made this, but I didn't leave any information on specifications or performance. There are other spec tables for the five horsemen."

That's a strange story. If there was a record I made, I guess I couldn't leave a spec table, or the record was scattered...

"So as far as I inherited the name of Flagman, I wanted to make sure with my own eyes for once. So, do you mind if I show you?

"Oh. Even for me, there's something I care about."

"What?

"Silver's skills, the third one, are still unknown. So I wish I could tell."

The fact that it became a [brilliant cavalry], mainly operating the brilliant jade beast, allowed the producer, the first Flagman, to read the message. But that's "I can't disclose the details yet because I don't have enough authority."

Silver seems to be able to use his skills exclusively at his own discretion, but he doesn't even know what he's using in the first place.

If Integra can see that this time, she's lucky.

"Roger that. Let's take a look at that, too"

"Move outside?

"No, there's room too, it's fine here."

I got recognition, so I called Silver out of the item box.

Silver was slightly inclined to the neck wondering if he had been summoned indoors rather than outdoors, but stood jiggly on the spot without ringing his hooves.

Then I'll show you.

"Okay. Silver, be nice."

…………

Silver, as he admitted, made a hissing driving noise.

As I do this, I recall having Mario look at the silver at the Calcellatan.

"It may take a little while, but can you wait? Because I don't care how much tea and sweets you eat."

"Uhm! Let me wait! Mogmog......"

…………

I also remembered that Nemesis flattened all the cookies in the Countess's mansion when I saw the Nemesis who had already got his hands on the tea treats.

... add or subtract this time, right?
