Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

"Well... in a good word, I can say I'm free, and in a bad word, I can say I've lost my goal... how do you feel now? Goddess?"

Waltz asks Deprexa, who was solidifying as she looked up about herself. She broke into Deprexa's brain and removed a "certain program" from it... Until how that would affect Deprexa's system, she seemed just a little worried about Deprexa because she didn't know either.

Whatever Waltz deleted was the absolute order of the producer, arguably the raison d 'être of Deprexa. That is, "Eliminate the other Guardians". Deleting it is synonymous with erasing the reason for the presence of the deprexa…. Even if something went wrong with her, no wonder at all.

Deprexa, who was under the eyes of Waltz, who had such a concern ——

"............" Pocahontas

—— Even if Waltz talks to me, I don't respond with my mouth open...... It remained frozen for quite some time.

Seeing such a Deprexa reaction, Waltz seems to be getting worried about whether her system is alive, and I fingered that head to try it out. But nevertheless, Deprexa didn't fall, and when she looked where she was standing, it didn't seem that she broke and stopped functioning. In particular, there was no denying the possibility that only the control system was alive and that the thought had collapsed and disappeared.

And ——

"Uh... I guess not. This"

—— and that Waltz is holding his head as if he were manoeuvring armor.

".................. Huh?!

Should I say fortunately, at last, Deprexa is in a different world (?) back from.

"Hey, what did you do?!

"What? It's a rewrite of your memory, though?

"No, you're too late to react...... So, what do you say? How do you feel now?"

"I don't know what you're talking about."

"... Could it have even been a glitch in the language field?

and after a serious thought...... Looks like Waltz decided to switch questions to see the effect of removing the extinction order from another angle.

"Well, I'll ask you again, won't I?... will you stop fighting any more?

In contrast, if Deprexa --

"Ko, you can't give up here..."

—— and I just tried to say the same response as I did before rewriting my memory... Waltz further changes the question.

"Well, listen, why would you try to fight that far?

"That's my --"

"My... what?

"My..."

And over and over again, Deprexa thinks the words "my…" over and over again. It's as if something important has fallen out of her...... Waltz's hacking does seem to have rewritten Deprexa's memory.

Such a deprexa had repeated the same words over and over as she leaned down, trying to remember the "something" she had lost. And every time I repeat that word, her expression gets wrapped up in sad colors.

Waltz, watching it, seemed, for once, guilty of the extent of the sparrow's tears somewhere in his heart. As a result, she said this, looking down at Deprexa.

"Well, if you can't remember, don't you have to force me to?

"You don't have to remember... good...?

"Can't remember, that's not a big deal, is it? Then I guess we should just wait until the time comes to remember. And I'm not going to fight any more..."

With that said, waltz that disappears of manoeuvre armor and constitutes a hologram of a person's appearance. He seemed to think that if he said he was unwilling to fight, he wouldn't convey it, as he remained a mobile armored figure that made him feel intimidated just because it existed.

I saw that. It's unclear what Deprexa thought and what she thought...... After hearing Waltz's words, Deprexa gave him a difficult look, and when he meditated his eyes with a loud sigh ——

Bun......

—— disappear from the spot.

Waltz, who saw it, thought Deprexa had not yet given up and set herself up vigilantly for her raid. While thinking that Deprexa, who disappeared, may indirectly attack by sacrificing those on the spot, perceiving that he cannot beat himself in comparison to simple power...

But then again, Deprexa didn't show up. Even by the time the sun passes over my head, leans heavily, and sets on the ground...... Once she disappeared, she never came back on the spot.

◇

And night.

"... so, the consul of South Fortress, can you please?

Waltz was questioning Alexandra as he surrounded the fireworks with the hunter. Once she had given me the word of consent, I decided to ask, just in case, because I was in a state of confusion as a result of the Deprexa raid shortly after that.

Unlike during the day, Alexandra, who was ahead of her gaze like that, somehow had a sneaky look on her face. Is it more appropriate to describe your eyes as dead than...?

"... you don't have the right to veto me from the start, do you?

"No? I'm not gonna force you, am I? I'm going to ask after we've properly agreed to each other. Well... this way, until you agree, I'm not giving up."

"... you were over at the time of my eyes... my life..."

That being said, Alexandra looks up at the sky where the two moons shine. What was ahead of her gaze like that is probably not the moon etc...... Past peace (?) It must have been a memory of my days.
