Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

A magically created greenhouse and rose saplings without flowers planted there. At the heart of such an indoor garden--

"(... I just look dead already...)"

—— There was a lying figure of Vega the Demon King, Lord of the Kingdom of Alborosa.

It just doesn't mean, of course, she's dead--

"(... no. For once, it seems to be alive. I have a pulse)"

—— Vega's neck, the carotid artery there seemed to be pulsating.

But it is.

"(... I'm not breathing, am I?

Somehow, Vega wasn't breathing, only her pulse seemed to be moving. Note that I'll write it down just in case, but it doesn't have Ella on her.

"(Could it even be photosynthetic?

"(I've never seen these cases before, so I honestly can't believe it...... Have you ever seen Mr. Waltz?

"(No, it's my first time too... I mean, if you're really photosynthetic, would that be a big discovery that would repaint the history of the evolution of organisms?

"(... is that serious?

"(... depending on the viewpoint, right...)"

If the scientists on Earth saw this sight, I seriously think Waltz would be happy. If Vega is photosynthetic, then applying that principle should improve the world's food problems considerably….

Nevertheless, this is a different world.

Sometimes it was hard to say that the DNA and evolutionary history of the inhabitants were the same as that of the Earth... Waltz began to look into why Vega wouldn't wake up once he pushed the possibility that Vega might be photosynthetic into a corner of his mind.

"(I don't get it, I don't get it... I don't get it at all)"

"(... Um, Mr. Waltz?

"(Yeah?)"

"(What are you doing?

"(Big discovery of the century... not finding out how Vega sleeps?

"(………)"

"(No, really?

"(... that's what I'm going to do)"

That's what I said, and then Catalina starts checking on Vega with Waltz. She also seemed to be exploring Vega's body, somewhere intriguing.

In the meantime, the water dragon, which had nothing to do with it, seemed to keep an eye on whether anyone would come from the entrance. Earlier, the soldiers, who were suddenly bewildered when they saw the open door, were now back in their original possession, although there was no way that someone would come into the room...... Looks like she decided to be on guard just in case while the Waltz and the others concentrated on the investigation.

And after a while. What Waltz and the others found out about Vega ——

"... isn't this a similar situation to Leah's been in a coma for a long time?

—— The symptom was similar to the situation when the wizard girl Leah was unconscious.

"Very slowly, but you seem to be breathing... But I still can't feel the magic..."

"So, is one of you out of magic or something?

"... it's just that in that case, you should be dead if you leave it alone. As far as the story goes that Mr. Shui Long (Argo) has never met Mr. Vega since he got here, he must have been in this situation for quite some time. Still, not only is he still alive, but he doesn't seem to be losing weight... I'm pretty sure there's some kind of problem with the magic generating system, but it's probably a different principle from when you were in Leah, you have magic deficiency, and you're presumed to be in a coma (nourishment is... photosynthetic after all...)"

"... that's right"

"No. Until I told you the truth."

With that said, Catalina is going to check on Vega with a slight blush.

Waltz, on the other hand, knowing that it was a matter of witchcraft, seemed to decide to turn his attention to the surrounding rose seedlings when he threw the keys early.

There, more than 1000 rose seedlings were arranged neatly, and there were clearances like passageways that people thought would pass by. Is there any sign of wet water underneath it the result of someone giving it water today as well?

All the seedlings looked like they were being carefully raised, but none of them were even budded by flowers... Looking at the differences between large and small, it appears that the replacement has been carried out for a short period of time.

Waltz looks around with such speculation...... In doing so, there ——

"(Ah, bugs...)"

Ju......

—— and there's a black bug that fires a laser reflexively.

Apparently, there are black bugs in the room, eating seedlings. As a result, rose seedlings have withered before they blossom, and I guess that's why, the seedlings have been finely replaced.

Looking at the rose seedlings in such an unfortunate condition, Waltz had previously remembered when he met Vega in Mid-Eden.

"(Speaking of Vega... I was transferring red roses instead...)"

Vega's substitute transfer magic that allows you to transfer ultra-long distances, ignoring junction magic for preventing metastases (?). The principle was to place the rose tree in its place at the destination of the transfer and transfer it in a manner that would replace it.

She remembered it and said this to Catalina, who was still checking Vega's condition, with interest in it.

"... Hey, Catalina?

"Yes?"

"Try it... this seedling tree, just one, can you do it if you want to blossom? This rose sapling... I think it has something to do with Vega's coma..."

"I can't... Mr. Waltz, Mana, do you have it?

"... sorry, I don't have it"

"... then you have no choice"

"No, it's just an idea, because Catalina bleeds on purpose and uses that magic to grow plants... because you don't have to do that, do you?

"No, I'm fine.... Cheval?

"............"?

In response to Catalina's call, Schwartz peeks black tentacles through the gaps in her white coat.

To him like that, Catalina said:

"Can you give me the artificial blood I kept before I got here?

".................."!

When I hear Catalina's words and freak out, I tremble my body...... Schwartz comes from the mouth and the thoughtful part ——

Nuh......

—— and a pack of drips with red liquid was removed.

There seemed to be something about Waltz who saw it that seemed to me different, but when I saw where she didn't open her mouth in the end, it seemed like she decided not to dare go in here.

Then Catalina catalyzed its artificial blood - magical blood with mana as its main ingredient - and poured restorative magic into the seedlings that were there.

Then, instead of getting bigger all at once ——

All over...

—— and rose trees growing into giant trees.

Apparently Catalina is ——

"... Isn't that a little too much?

"Excuse me...... I haven't had magic on plants lately..."

—— I seem to have grown it the wrong size.
