Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

"(Um, Master Waltz? I'll just explain one thing)"

"(Huh? What? Suddenly...)"

"(The Dwarves look bold like this while the alcohol is in them, but as soon as the alcohol runs out, they will be as soggy as people have changed, so don't be surprised by that gap)"

"What..."

Null explains the characteristics of the Dwarf as he walks inside the Consul's mansion behind Zapato the Elder......

And he imagined the sight, waltz of how he accidentally doubted his ears.

In other words, if Null's story is correct, it seems that Zapato, who is in front of them, is also intoxicated at this moment, looking different from his original appearance, as if he were to transform.

No, maybe it's more unusual for them to be primitive.

Then.

Had that conversation been heard, Zapato began to mouth his views about alcohol with a full grin on his face.

"Ha-ha-ha! Master Null, don't tell me something funny! Indeed, we Dwarves drink alcohol instead of water. Alcohol is the head of the water of life, the medicine. I wonder if there are any Dwarves in this town that can live without alcohol!

That said and again, the elder Zapato, who begins laughing luxuriously.

Listen to him like that,

"(Uh, I see... So you're a real addict...)"

The waltzes looked at Zapato's back with a frightened look on his face.

Well, only Lucia, who has to move the city wall and apologize to him from now on, seemed like an exception to that.

◇

Then, Waltz and I were led to the reception room and the place where we thought we would be, and then we sat down on the couch there.

At that time, a secretary and thinker came to them and left a glass of clear liquid on the desk......

Guess from the flow of Zapato's story, apparently, it's not water.

The consul's hall, where they were, was basically a wooden building, reinforced everywhere with plates of metal, making it a rare style of architecture in this world.

To be more specific, the beams and columns that support the building are securely fixed, using metal plates and bolts like...

And although most of the doors and walls are also made of wood, the parts of the stronghold where strength is required are made of metal, which seems to have been created by a combination of both metallic materials and wood.

By analogy, it might be described as a Japanese house with too much seismic reinforcement.

Well, aside from that.

With the couch the waltz sat on, it seemed that Zapato, who stood on the other side of the desk, had a surprised look on his face at something.

"Master Null? May I? I thought I'd be sitting in this chair..."

"No, I don't mind. In the current Boreas situation, there should be no such thing as me looking big and flirting in a chair. In his seat, Lord Zapato, the Lord of this city, should sit."

and seriously-mouthed, he floated his hips as if to check the comfort of the sofa, then tried to travel about 2 cm to the person waltz was sitting on. Null.

But the behavior was blocked by an invisible gravitational barrier, which eventually seemed to have moved about five centimeters in the opposite direction.

…………

"What is it? Dear Null, Suddenly shut up..."

"No... it's nothing. Faster than that, but let's get down to business. We don't have time for each other."

That's what I said, a null with a harsh look on his face.

Then you felt the air changed......

Zapato, who was always smiling, also lowered his back to the luxurious chair that was on the spot with a serious look on his face.

After I see that, Null starts talking.

"Firstly, as you know, this country is now in an extremely difficult situation. It's an invasion from a country on the human side called Ecleria. On my way here, I also saw several times their unusually developed weapons...... wouldn't that be causing much damage in this town? It would be helpful if you could give me some information about that area."

and null asking for a report against Zapato, who would have the information.

Then Zapato smiled again with a nimmari, leaning once and for all into his mouth the contents of the cup that was on the spot, and began to explain in an upbeat manner.

"There's nothing wrong with that. Even though it is a weapon that has progressed, it is a tool made by a person. Then there is no such thing as using our hammer, working out again, and putting it back in the iron scrap."

"Oh...... you sure do. Earlier, we saw a weapon called" Tank "that the soldiers of this town were destroying with ease."

"Isn't it the left? Then Master Null would have understood.... that this town will not succumb to the end with the barbarians like Eccleria!

That's what I said.

Gushari......

and Zapato, the elder who grips the glass he had, catches his mouth, and sharpens his eyesight.

From him, it seemed more oppressive to say Mad Warrior, than the two names Elder, etc.

Meanwhile.

Null, hearing the words, had a look that seemed difficult.

"(What is it...... Perhaps the elders feel like they are looking too sweetly at Eccleria...... Should I advise you or not say anything to keep your morale......)"

and mind bothering inside, the Supreme Commander of Boreas.

Zapato then said this all the more while pouring clear liquid into the new glass he had removed from the shelf that was nearby, either unaware of it.

"By the way - there seems to have been a lot of noise outside of town... does Master Null know what it is?

At that moment...

………… "Biku.

Lucia stiffens herself.

Apparently, she felt that the time had come for her to make an apology.

But because the waltz that was next door was shadowed, or Null never noticed how it was......

She started responding to Zapato's inquiry as it were.

"Actually, a few things went wrong... First of all, the dragons in the nearby woods... I missed us"

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

Did you not understand that word of Null, Zapato stopping the hand carrying alcohol into his mouth, and listening back.

The explanation of Null's circumstances will then continue.

"It was a coincidence that the dragons missed it. Talk to this for a long time Circumstances (?)... I'll explain that later. But because of that, the gatekeepers caught me off guard and shut the front door... That's what caused the commotion."

"What an incredible story for Russia... If it's Nur, there's no such thing as hand-scratching dragons. But this, it seems, has done something so sorry... I didn't know you couldn't get into town about Null..."

And Zapato leaned over sorry, at that time-

"... I'm sorry..." Damn.

Lucia apologized in a small voice.

But the word seemed not to sound Zapato, either because it was too small.

However, instead......

He seemed to be the first to turn his attention to the waltzes who were there.

"With that said, who are these people?

"You did. Sorry I'm late in introducing you. First of all, she is the Hunter Hall. He's the commander of the military wing of the country that offered our support."

and null pointing water at the hunter.

Then the hunter stood on the spot and began a brief introduction.

"Like Lord Zapato? I'll see you first.... a hunter. Best regards,"

"Hunter...? Excuse me, but you're a very unusual name, aren't you?

"I'm sorry about this. I almost completely forgot my real name because I've always been called a hunter. Omit Reese = Alexandros. If you don't omit, Elizabeth = B = Alexandros. But in any case, it's a long time, so I don't mind you calling me a hunter. That's what they call it."

A hunter who speaks so and offers his hand.

Zapato shook his hand over the table, and he shook his hand.

"... I see. Isn't he like Mitsuhito, who excels in martial arts?

That's all he seems to have felt, what kind of person the hunter is.

"No, that's not true. I don't know right or left, I'm just a little girl."

and the hunter, humbled, sits back on the couch again.

Null later added supplementary words.

… except.

That word is just a little (?), although it seems to have disrupted the place.

"As a matter of fact, the hunter is not a demon. I come from a country called Mid-Eden, in the realm of the human side."

At that moment,

"To, are you human?! ♪ Gusha ♪

Again, Zapato squeezes the glass he had in his hand.

Apparently, to him belligerent, it was not easy to accept the idea that Boreas, a demonic country, would join hands with a nation on the human side.
