Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

"(Ah... I wonder if this is going to happen...)"

Victor stared at Catalina standing in front, holding her sword.For Victor, the Catalina of the rear guard is the one to be protected.I couldn't help but be ashamed of myself for having to put her out in the meantime.

But it seems that he was mistaken.Victor immediately noticed that Catalina turned her back and looked at her with a silly gaze.

"(Ah, I see... You're telling me to fight the dragon because Catalina is going after Joseph over there?)"

Catalina demonstrates its strength when the opponent is an organism.And now, the enemies in front of us are two mechanized earth dragons and two visible human beings.It was easy to predict who she would fight from now on, considering which of them would be more advantageous for Catalina.

So Victor nodded. Catalina also narrowed her eyes with a reassuring expression.

It's just that her reaction--

Well then, please rest.

"Hey... is that you?! (My position, hey!)"

—— Victor's not exactly what he expected.

Catalina started walking slowly again, ignoring Victor, who seemed to protest.She doesn't pretend to run.I could take it for granted.She has nothing to say about a weapon, so she doesn't have to run like a swordsman and slash it...You don't have to defend yourself or avoid another person's attack.

She walks slowly on the battlefield in a creepy way.Even Victor's spine seems to be cold.

The two opponents, Dragon Crax and Joseph, looked at Catalina's movements and looked puzzled, but did not seem to be particularly alert.Because neither of us knew how to fight.After all, in the battlefield that Catalina is fighting, there are zero returnees on the Ecleria side.Until now, there has been no transmission of information to Ecleria.

And one more thing. Catalina's -- no, the way the Catalinas fought didn't get through to Ecleria.The way they fought was because every time they fought, they continued to progress and evolve.

"............"

And a black object appears from the bottom of Catalina's white coat.A labyrinth-- an unidentified creature. It's Cheval.

While Catalina was walking, Shubar sprayed something around her like fog and gas.Perhaps even Cortex doesn't know what it is.This is the first time that Cheval has released a black fog, and no other labyrinth will inject the same gas as Cheval.

Initially, everyone on the scene seemed to think that Catalina was blinded by gas.But it didn't actually happen.Catalina herself had not been swallowed by gas and was in a state of blindness that could only be said to be quite poor.

Then what is the fog for...?And a few frowned in wonder, including their allies.

Ooooooooooo!!

From nowhere, I heard something like a loud sound echoing from the core of my body.The voice came from a black fog.While everyone was watching the black mist, a loud noise sounded like a big monster from the black gas spreading behind Catalina, who kept walking without changing her expression.

And...

Ooooooooooo!!

—— A big monster revealing his anger with a lot of fangs out of the black gas —— a giant earth dragon appeared.
