Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

"Eh... too many things have happened at the top... I don't know what's going on anymore..."

The visit of a strange ghostly woman, the great remodeling of Vega's room and the isolation of the town by the roots of the world tree...... Because every one of them was beyond his comprehension, Randy's head seemed to have overheated. On top of that, in front of her, her brother Messier was still unconsciously lying on the floor... To her, who had not much mental leeway, it seemed that Teresa's explanations did not come into her ears unnecessarily.

Such were they in the hypnotic dormancy room next to the office of Messier, which was on the third floor of the royal castle, in the street where the bed where Messier was lying down was. There, besides Randy, Teresa, Lucia, Beatrice and the Water Dragon Squad who were spontaneously guarding Randy...... In contrast to Randy, who had not left the room because he had always been clear to Messier, it seemed that Teresa and the others were telling stories of what they had heard from a woman who called herself the "demon god" and what was happening to the town of Rice. And of course, about the prophetic remark that something big could happen tomorrow evening...

It just didn't seem that Teresa and the others tried to mention much about the identity of the person who was at the liquor store because they didn't know if the woman was really a demon god.

"That's right...... The concubines don't know much either. Was I a human, or a ghost, or —— a demon..." chi

"Er... right... I'm not sure about that either... but most importantly, what I don't understand is that the roots of the world tree have surrounded the town. Instead of the town, if there were any massive anomalies that would surround every forest on the outside of it, it would seem good to hear loud noises and vibrations coming this far, but there should never have been such a thing..."

and with his mouth, Randy recalls what has happened in the last few days.

Such is she, with the exception of the work of replacing rose seedlings in Vega's room, as mentioned, almost exactly to her brother's nursing...... I mean, I was in a quiet room, so if anything rocked the ground, I should have known right away. But at least, while her will (...) awareness (...) is (...), I can't feel the vibrations that bother me...... It seemed to be one of the causes of her growing confusion.

That seemed the same to Teresa.

"Hmm. The concubines don't feel any vibrations or sounds either. Earlier, for the first time, Lord Strella -- er..."

"Yeah, I hear you. Teresa's sister..."

"No............... well, is it something similar? So, when Lord Strella looked down at the land from the airship on his way home, he told you that the outside of town was in such a terrible situation?

"What about this story to Mr. Abraham and the others?

"Hmm. I already told you. I thought you said you were sending an investigation team right away to find out how much impact it has on the town. Well, as soon as I said that, it looks like you had a foam blowing and you fell... Lord Catalina noticed, so you'll be fine."

And whenever he falls overworked, Teresa remembers the Four Heavenly Kings, who are once again forced to engage in difficult work, even if they are revived by Catalina as if they were zombies or something. At that time, she was turning her narrowed gaze to the Messier who sleeps in front of her, either because she had something to think of the Messier who has done that daunting job all by herself, or because she unintentionally imagined the disaster that would befall him after she woke up......

Then as she shook her head to shake something off, she changed the content of the story and started talking about another requirement that should be communicated to Randy.

"Oh, yeah. As I promised you, I thought you had a new distillation device installed in Lord Randy's mansion. If you want to perform extractions such as wood vinegar liquid that cannot be placed in a person's mouth, if you want to distill alcohol using the old device that you made earlier, you need to use the new device. You think you can tell which is the new device somehow?

"Excuse me. Thank you. But... unless you do something about the problem that's coming down to this town, you don't seem to have a chance to use it..."

"Nah, you don't have to worry. Miss Lucia here... and Bear too?

"Hey, Teresa? I don't mean to be stingy, but suddenly I want you to stop waving impotent?

"Now, I kind of felt like I was wearing my name..."

"If you two are here, that's comforting"

against Teresa's sudden impotence, he was making a scene with gaggers (?) Randy speaks so with a tender gaze at the two girls. Though only the person can tell if that was her true intentions or her rhetoric...... Then the air that was flowing on the spot seemed to soften a lot.

◇

Then three of them broke up with Randy and left the room. They were having this conversation as they walked down the hallway of the royal castle.

"Mr. Randy, do you really not know about the" demon god ”?

He said, "You were taking Teresa's words, weren't you? At first glance, it seemed unknown..."

"Hmm...... But he told me before that Waltz had heard from Lord Abraham that the Devil Clan and the Demon God had an unbroken relationship... There may have been circumstances I couldn't talk to, and I acted like my concubines wouldn't understand me."

Teresa and the others walking down the hallway with such a conversation and a seemingly difficult look.

Of all the problems surrounding the town of Rice, the biggest concern they had was the disturbing words left behind by a woman named ”Demon God” when she left...... Did it work greatly that we met in person, and it seemed that the three of us could not ignore her words.
