Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

Only a little bit of time goes back, and once again the perspective returns inside the town...

Until then, it was not very noticeable, and Silanui, who had followed quietly behind the Cortex, ran out ahead of everyone and turned around with a full grin to say what she had found.

"Dear Cortex! May I stop by this store for a moment?

It was in front of one of the martial arts stores that she was stopping her legs like that.

The walls seem a little burnt, but because they were made of stone, there seems to be no problem with the building or its contents, and although there are many shops in town that are closed, this martial arts store seems to be open as usual.

"I wanted to see what swords are dealt in this city..."

And, in front of the weapons store, Silanui, who keeps the word going.

To her like that, I approached her with a strange look on my face... and squealed in that ear was Eve in a maid...

"(Hey, Silanui! If I told you that in front of Master Cortex, you might get scolded, right? That ladies don't deserve it...)"

"What..."

"(Because even this made-up outfit, when I left the castle, said, 'It's a lady's preference,' and it could be something I was forced to wear!

"Oh, did you?

Syranui mouths the word of confirmation, looking surprised by Eve's words.

Then Cortex, who was listening with super high performance ears without leaking that conversation, pinched his mouth with a grin.

"That's for each person ~? In Eve's case, there's not enough lady ingredients at all ~"

"Hih, hih?! Hell ears?!"

"Oh no. You have a bad mouth for being a hell of an ear ~... This is going to need to be done ~?... Eve?

With that said, Cortex approached Eve with a wrinkly grin on both hands.

"Huh?!

That's the look on her face... to Eve, it would look like something other than a laugh...

... well, aside from that.

"Do you want to stop by the armor store ~. Sounds like Silanui ~?

Having grabbed without difficulty the maid of the dog Beastman, who was trying to escape the scene, Cortex turned his narrow gaze to the armoury store there, rubbing her natural perm hair loose in her arms to a kusha.

"I knew it... wouldn't work?

You didn't think how she looked like that was anything very positive, and Silanui said the kind of words she gave up half of the time with a look of sorry.

But contrary to her expectations, he had no objection to the Cortex.

"No. I don't mind stopping by ~? Just for me, I didn't come here ~. Besides, I'm sure this store is a corner opportunity because it was supposed to be the store your sister and Lucia used to take care of, so I think you can ask her to say hello ~"

"Oh yeah!

To the unexpected Cortex words, when Silanui starts to smile brightly again...

"... you really just want to stop by, don't you? Ever!"

Doggo!

Next to Cortex, Atlas, who had an eye on the map of the town, smuggled a scratch against her as she fetched soldiers who were still attacking her.

... Of course, it's just words...

"You understand very well ~? Atlas. Actually, they bought the white coat Katarina bought at this store ~. That means ~? I mean, don't you think there's some special squeeze ~?

"... Cortex. Could it be that bathing suit, you're going to wear it everyday?

"No, I wouldn't do that ~? Blood as a collector just makes a scene."

"... well. Then there's no choice."

To such a Cortex word, consider whose blood is flowing in her... Atlas with a convincing look.

Apparently, the person who was the source of Cortex, a homunculus, has some sort of collection habit...

... By the way, what you're collecting can be Waltz's portrait (bromide)...

Well, that's as decorating as a wall or somewhere...

"Uh..."

Syranui begins with a complex look, like she doesn't know how to react to it because the place has been engulfed in chaos.

You noticed how she looked like that, too, Cortex.

"I'm sorry about this, Silanui. Now, let's go into the store ~"

Like re-compartmentalizing the field, he said so and then... gently opened the large door of the entrance made of wood with his small hand and went inside the armoury store...

Karan, Cologne...

When I walked into the store... somehow, people were talking inside.

Apparently, right now, in this town, demand for firearms is increasing...

"What..."

Silanui was smiling happily until earlier, but when she saw what was going on in the store and stiffened her expression, she pulled her face straight back.

Perhaps she, too, was just like Waltz and didn't like a lot of people...

"Um... now it seems difficult for us all to go in together... I have no choice but to give up this time"

You thought about the fellows you were dating for yourself, Syranui said those words unfortunately once she went outside.

Then...

"It's okay ~? Silanui, leave this place to me."

Cortex said so, putting his arms on his hips, raising his voice so that everyone in the store could hear him.

"... Fools ~! Listen to me! If you leave this store immediately, you'll be like this guy!

After I said that, she turned to Atlas...

"(See, Atlas? I'm going to blow it up now, so don't get hurt, just defend yourself properly ~?

"That's the kind of thing, before you declare it, you consult the blowing side once before as well s..."

Pep...

Dogowong!!

I blew him up in an inexplicable (possibly physical) way, saying something and taking care of him, creating a giant crater on the surface street...

The people in the store who saw it...

For a moment, you didn't understand what happened, after you quieted down... but soon,

"What?! People are dead, you say?!

"Is that him, Demon King?!

"It's times like this that we should calm down and act...!

Apparently, all of them, because they were skilled combat experience, or not surprisingly panicked, have dealt with it calmly... and, against the Cortex, have pointed the blade (if they do).

"That ~? That's crazy ~? At times like this, everyone, it's supposed to be a scene to run and run ~..."

Eve with a bright blue face, a flying dragon with an intriguing look on his face, and a cortex tilting his head, one person, roughly because of the unexpected reaction of the guests to Syranui, whose mouth was puckering like he didn't know how to react.

Then she realized that no one could escape outside because they stood at the store's only entrance and exit... at that time.

"... you guys better pull your swords and walk away... Some people in the world shouldn't fight... Otherwise... you're gonna be socially wiped out?

"... Huh?

Behind the Cortex... I mean, from the entrance to the store, he looked like the boy's brother who blew up earlier... and the brave showed up.
