Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

Eve and Waltz then explained to Null the full scope of the town's overhaul plan. In other words, it is a plan to transform and create land by magically relocating the location of the town in order to pretend to be an Eclaria assault and protect the town.

Although the content itself was a plan that was likely to be realized somehow, technically and in terms of people's hearts and minds... Null, who was listening, felt caught up in something.

"Hmm... then why don't we build another town next to Vixen from the beginning?

As long as we move the town and build it, we should not change its position and build a new town surrounding the city of Vixen.... As for Eve who was listening to it, I thought it was exactly right, but it seemed that Watts had something to contest.

"So the center of town stays old, right? That doesn't make any sense, does it? It leaves an old town in the center of town... (What do you do with the fields...)"

Perhaps the nulls don't understand the purpose of remodeling the town... Waltz thought so and put a hologram monitor in the air. They're going to use a hologram monitor to explain it. Except for Eve and Null, the Sirius sisters opened their eyes, but Waltz opened his mouth without paying attention to the reaction.

"Towns are harder to develop if people can't move around smoothly. It's hard to tell where the destination is, you have to travel all the way to get there, the roads are too narrow and there's always traffic... Does that mean it takes time to get to your destination? With that travel time, craftsmen would make something, and merchants should be able to do business, but don't you think it would be a waste of time to do nothing? That applies to everyone in the whole town? The goal is to eliminate that waste."

And Waltz explains why to organize the town early. At that time, she floats the current town of Vixen on a hologram monitor, traces it by hand, and writes down the line of human flow and thought.

The lines she drew were tortuous many times, influenced by castles, churches and winding boulevards located in the center of the town. Most of the roads in town are crooked and the outlook is poor... The only straight path leads to the outskirts of the town. He described the fact that a straight line of distance would actually require more than three times the distance traveled, even though it seemed like there was a destination right there.

Whether to describe it as an old good town or an urban engineering just an old town is where judgment is divided, but the old town and the efficient town are coexistent rather than exclusive. Kyoto in the modern world is one such example.

Waltz, who was familiar with it, added explanations to the nulls who were listening seriously to his own explanations.

"So, it's imperative to sort out the old townscape for now? I'd like to cut out some of the historic townships that I want to keep, but I think it's better to tidy up the messy shopping streets.... no, I don't hate merchants."

Eve and Null seemed to have heard such a Waltz explanation without contesting it. Eve is staring at the hologram monitor and putting his thoughts together.... Null also seemed to have a good understanding of what Waltz was saying.

For this reason, Null talks about the questions she had when she heard Waltz's explanation.

"Then why don't we just cut and paste the town and sort it out? That way, we can sort out the town so that it doesn't interfere with the flow of people, and I don't think we'll be disgusted by the people in the town....

"Well, if I were to use transfer magic to organize the town, it might still be good, but I'm not the one who uses magic, Lucia...."

"That's impossible with human power....."

"Yeah. If you do, do you think it's going to feel like you're going to separate the towns and move them as far as you can count? Well, leaving the old town would, as I said earlier, conflict with organizing the flow of people, so we have to limit ourselves to where we think it is particularly necessary."

"Hmm... by the way, can't you just leave the existing town and cut the road again?

"I'm not saying no, but you want to rebuild the boulevard and go through the canal? Are the residents convinced that this will destroy the town? In some cases, people who are not convinced of the relocation may commit murder by building a new house in the middle of the road that their home should have been."

…………

Null seems to have thought about Waltz's words. Waltz's urban renovation plan was so important to Nur that he wanted it to be as compact as possible if he considered the objections of the citizens.

However, it is clear from previous experience that halfway through the process ends with halfway results. So she doesn't have to draw conclusions on this occasion---

"Let me think for a second..."

—— Urban Renovation Plan (URP)?) There was some time until the award ceremony, which was due to start, so it seems that she decided to worry in the meantime.
