Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

"... you're going?

"... um. Do it for one thought."

Experimenting with Enchants Using Alfania. That's all I write, it may seem like a human experiment, but the actual look is far from a human experiment...... As in the previous experiment, we have a regular iron rod and an iron rod each with an enchant, and only if the enchant is applied will the alphania touch the hand...... Waltz bends them using a gravity control system.

Nevertheless, tension is a human experiment itself......

Mekki mekki mekki......

"... it's getting warmer, isn't it?

"This is what happens when you apply force to metal?

Vivin......

"Keep it vibrating like a stranded yarn... I'm kind of scared..."

"Well, actually, it's because you're stuck, right?

Before the iron rod, which was now about to be bounced by the application of force, Alfania seemed to instinctively feel dangerous, shrinking herself like a small animal who felt dangerous.

Waltz laughs bitterly at me not knowing how Alfania looks like that--

"I mean, just now, you said you'd do it for one thought, didn't you?

…………

…… Alfania? "

—— That's where unforeseen things happen. Even when Waltz called, he didn't hear back from Alfania. And --,

Bataah......

"Hey?!

—— Alfania suddenly lost consciousness and fell like a doll with a broken thread.

"Alfania? Alfania?!

When Waltz called his name, it looked like Alfania barely made a move...... While Waltz is only a little relieved, he hurries through his thoughts.

"(This, the cause is out of magic, right? I thought you said acute magic deficiency. That should mean you should let them drink mana......)"

Waltz looking around with that in mind. Then, in her sight, comes the figure of the tank provided for the Enchant's appliance and the figure of the mana that was poured side by side in it.

Then when Waltz returns her gaze to Alfania, she will notice certain changes that have occurred to Alfania's body.

Wrinkles Wrinkles......

"Eh... what... this..."

Wrinkles entered the surface of Alfania's face, which she was embracing, at a speed that she could see with her eyes —— in other words, aging began abruptly. Apparently, because of the magic in her body poking her in the bottom, the "something" that would have stopped her if she had lived long enough.

"Hey...... (what do we do?! Me!)"

If it stays this way, will Alfania die from sudden aging... Waltz, who planned the experiment, was in a hurry.

Nevertheless, only this time, her decision seemed quick. Because there was only one thing she could do right now.

"... you'll have to do it!

I made up my mind (?) Waltz, holding on to Alfania, approached Enchant's appliance...... in the tank that was there --,

Dobasha!!

—— and sank the momentum, the Alfania thing out of my head. If the magic is out, they thought it would be good to sink every alphania in water containing high concentrations of magic. The option of letting them drink one by one —— well, I guess I didn't think about it.

"(... that? Speaking of which, was Mana a liquid with magic melted in the water? So, what kind of substance is magic itself?

Waltz thinks about Jab Jab and Alfania while soaking them in mana. Behind her brain, the figure of the South Fortress people who were using mana instead of spring water to cook seemed to be emerging.

Then, shortly --,

"Pfft?!

—— Alfania, whose wrinkles disappeared safely from her face, put her face out of the water. That was also due to being held down by Waltz, in a rather desperate shape......

"Hey... gee ho... what do you do! Cold?

"Ha, good. You almost died, didn't you? Suddenly there were more wrinkles, and she looked like her grandmother."

"Ha?... Ha! Nah!

"... well, anyway, if you stay like this, you'll catch a cold"

Waltz lifts Alfania out of Mana's tank and lowers it to the spot...... They couldn't help Alfania's legs, and she went straight in there or something.

Apparently, her magic, to a certain extent, was not enough to return to her health. I guess the situation is far from the present, just because it barely ensures the magic to sustain life.

Waltz apparently understood that, too, and did nothing more to force Alfania to do. Even if she is a Guardian but doesn't know where a person's limits are, she seemed to think that any further imposition was dangerous when she saw Alfania with no legs to stand.

However, as for Alfania, he really wanted to ask Waltz something...... She was soaking wet and sneezing from time to time, throwing questions at the waltz lifting about herself.

"So, how was it? The result is…"

"... don't you know as soon as you see me?

That said, before Waltz turned his gaze, two iron bars were fixed to the jig... Only the iron bars of those in Alfania's hands seemed to stand intact with little bending.
