Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

"Wah, waltz!! bump!!"

"No, I'm fine. Oh, but don't move. Because I can't guarantee I won't bump when I move. See, apprentice Nike or Randy"

"" ………… "

Among the cracks in the world tree where the waltzes were flying at fierce speeds, they were slowly becoming blocked, as if to respond to the great fluctuations of the tree. To this end, it seemed rather narrow for manoeuvre armor to fly.

However, for the flying Waltz himself, it did not seem to be a big problem because he usually travels through narrow areas. But for the hunters just riding on Waltz's back, he didn't care... They seemed to keep themselves down and pray not to bump into each other.

Especially--

"It's a good breeze."

"………"

It seems that very few of them, on the contrary, enjoyed flying.

Bowong......

"Yikes, that was close to tearing you down right now?!

"It's all right, Big Length--"

Dgowwwwww!!

"Ugh! Wah, Master Waltz?! Didn't you hit it on purpose now?!" Tingling

"Oh, sorry Yuki...... Did I bump into you? Well, Yuki would be fine. Yeah."

"Yay, it sure doesn't hurt..."

"There are circumstances to this... Here, look to the right?

"" Right...?

"A crack in the trunk of a world tree began to repair at an intense rate? So it feels critical to get out of here. Worst case scenario, I might have to blow it up to get some space..."

The hunter now reacts to Waltz's troublesome words that

"No, that's... oh well... I mean, waltz can fly straight if you blow up the perimeter, but you're flying critical as hurting the world tree, right?

"Yeah, that's pretty much it. It's not like you're flirting with me, is it?... maybe."

"Maybe..."

and waltzes that continue to fly at high speeds while orbiting upwards, downwards, left, and right through the cracks of highly irregular world trees.

And then flying for a while ——

"... I see it! Outside!"

—— Beyond the crack that was closing, I think I see a view of the blue outside.

"Yabba! I don't... I don't."

"" Huh?

Dogowong!!

"Huh!

"Oh, I'm sorry, Yuki. Because it wasn't on purpose now, was it? It was really critical. I think if you'd just kept your head down a little bit, you could have gone somehow..."

"I'm... used to it..."

"... sorry..."

Waltz managed to fly out of the world tree over the happening that

Immediately after that.

Seeing the sight that was spreading there, everyone spoke up in unison.

"" "" "............ What?!

to "............"?!

"World Tree...... are you going to swallow the town?!

At the end of their gaze, the world tree was showing great change. Specifically, the likes of many roots are rising from the woods to the sky surrounding the town of Rice... It interacted with trees over the sky, as if it supported the world tree.

The place where roots like sticks had been growing was the part where the roots had been flourishing as if isolating the town for a few days. Apparently, the unusual exuberance of the roots was the result of the world tree itself being prepared, in self-defence.

Seeing that sight, now Catalina opens her mouth.

"... Perhaps you are trying to avoid the town and reinforce the trunk. If you hadn't thought about the town, the town would be gone without a trace by now, but the roots in the town don't seem to be moving much...... However, if it stays like this, the town is going to dive under the roots of the world tree..."

"Is that... should I say good or bad..."

"It depends on how you take it. I think it's up to the people who live in Rice's town to decide."

With that said, Catalina turns her gaze to Randy, a resident of the town of Rice.

The liquor store owner who was at the end of that gaze was admirably confused...... It looked like Catalina's words weren't in her ear. However, there was something about the view she could see from there, and she whined about this as she looked at the town that was changing.

"... beautiful..."

Listen to that whine ——

"... um"

—— and Nike hitting on the correlation.

I don't know if that was how we felt about our town's appearance from the sky for the first time in our lives, or the view that has changed dramatically... As far as the two of us are concerned, at least it doesn't seem to be an unacceptable situation.

Then the waltzes went down to the castle of Vega as they circled over the town. It goes without saying at that time that Waltz, shy of being seen by strangers, once again created havoc among the six as a result of making his body transparent......
