Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

Dealing with the bumpy Ecclesia night raid, and after things converged.

Waltz and Lucia returned to the inn with a tired look on their face.

When they enter the room, there...

"Ah, maybe welcome back!

Apparently Eve was awake and waiting for the two of us to go to the desk with the lantern lit again......

And

".................. zzz"

".................. zzz"

".................. zzz"

Theresa, who is also a non-combatant, plus Julia and Sylvia, who were in a position to protect them... somehow seemed to sleep well on a single-sized bed where Waltz slept before leaving here, with three friendly people lined up in the river lettering.

It should be noted that, as I repeat, their room, not here, is next door.

Waltz, who saw them like that, had a frightened look on his face and said he was moving a single eyebrow picturesque...

"Uh... how'd it go? Master Waltz?"

Eve stood up from her chair and ran over to Waltz, looking into her face worried, asking about the situation.

Maybe Eve saw that look on Waltz's face and thought something less fragrant had happened.

But of course, there wasn't anything special going on...

In response to Eve, who has been asking, Waltz briefly described some of the events that were outside, when he softened his expression.

"There was nothing wrong with that? Out of the blue, thanks to all the people our knights could do. And then... it looks like the boundaries of this town have been temporarily broken, but it could be repaired quickly too... (torture also n... you don't have to tell me anything about interrogation...)"

"Oh well. There's nothing to worry about, but Teresa might have been right. You should have slept with Eve, too." Huh.

"Bye, Eve. Shall we go to bed?

"Yeah!"

And then we get dressed again, and Lucia and Eve lie down to bed at the same time.

They were both getting sleepy when they woke up to this hour on the boulder, and when they entered the futon, they seemed to fall asleep immediately.

Waltz, on the other hand, who was deprived of his own bed, said that

"... well, good."

I woke up about the three people sleeping in my bed and drove them to the next room... and they decided to leave me alone.

... Yes.

I don't sleep because she doesn't have to lie in bed at all......

Meanwhile, around that time.

The sky gradually grew white and the stars were thin and invisible... under such a sky.

"... seeing these sights makes me wonder if it is right to follow Master Waltz by fulfillment..."

The maid-dressed brave lady was small and boisterous looking at the square in front of the royal castle.

I don't know why he was mouthing such a twinkle with a non-floating face...

"That was a broken bone...... But...... are they really soldiers? Cry so much..."

"You were running things like, we're not soldiers. At the point of possession of a weapon, you say you are a soldier… young people these days are not prepared at all…"

"Heh, I can't keep up with the conversation between the two of you..."

Yuki and the others questioned the captured Eclerian soldiers from one end to the other (?)... and as it were, there was no one left, because I killed them all.

No, if I'm being exact, I'm dead on my own, should I say?

Apparently, a mechanism that would kill you if you mouthed something extra was planted in their black helmets or in their bodies themselves.

It should be noted that what happened to their bodies after that… there are no bodies left on this occasion, it would suffice to say.

Such inhumane actions by them were apparently unacceptable to the brave.

Though they didn't kill the soldiers directly, if they had stopped along the way, wouldn't everyone have died......

Didn't he have to drive them to death repeatedly until the end...... and he seemed to think.

Nevertheless, having some connection with the Loricons and Capellas who once belonged to the Eclerian side, he knew that the soldiers who had disappeared into particles of light were not really dead, and there was also a certain understanding of Yuki's behavior... so it didn't seem that he was really worried about what to do.

"I wonder where I come from and go..."

and a brave man who mouths such a twinkle as he turns his narrowed gaze toward the much brightened eastern sky.

Then a swordsman nearby replied to his words like that.

"Well, I've decided to come from Endercia and get to where I'm going. I don't even know where that is.... See, Leo? If you don't get back to bed, you're gonna fall asleep again, right?

The brave man who heard such a fellow's words gave him a slightly soothing look, and once he looked back… at that point, he seemed to have unwittingly solidified, with the sight of suffering from understanding in his gaze.

Then the other one.

Somehow...... a sage with a bandage all over him and something like a crutch asked him about the circumstances against a brave man who acted strangely.

"What's going on? Leo."

"That... what are you doing?

"" That "?

and swordsmen and sages who respond like parrot returns and gaze in the direction the brave man was looking at.

Then there...

"The torture of my Boreas is the best in the world!" Ggggggggggggggggggggg

"I don't know what you're talking about! Maggia's the strongest! Gigigigigigigigigigigigigigigigigigigigigi

Null and Sophia stare at each other with their foreheads stuck together as they combine their hands with each other......

Look at that,

"Brave... I thought I was gonna pretend I didn't see it.

"That's definitely the one who doesn't touch it and doesn't sneak around... Look. When I was little, my parents said, right? Don't look, don't look."

and the sage and swordsman who speak respectively.

Apparently, they both felt a dangerous atmosphere in the interaction between Null and Sofia.

Especially, experienced (?) The swordsman seemed to instinctively guess it.

"Right...... I agree. Shall we go back…"

Then a brave man who doesn't go as far as the foolishness of talking to the two nulls...... etc and decides to just go home.

But he, where he turned his gaze toward the royal castle… stopped again.

And there stood the face which he found out.

"McNeil......"

Some distant gaze at his bandage-ridden subordinates, as if they were haunted or feeling their own powerlessness… The brave groaned his name with such a vain look on his face.

Even to McNeill like that, seeing where the bandages were wrapped around his body...... he seemed to be in this fight too.

Perhaps his injuries were also sustained by the firearms used by the Eclerian soldiers.

McNeil, called upon by the brave, turned his gaze to the brave.

Then, when he returned to his usual poker face (his opposite face) and completely erased the last minute atmosphere, he uttered this in the form of an answer to the brave man's call.

"Boulder, Mid Eden...... Rumor has it."

"Rumors?"

A brave man who doesn't know what McNeil suddenly said and asks his sincerity.

McNeil then began explaining the rumor….
