Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

"Fufufufu......"

The moment they heard the laughter, the waltzes stood up unexpectedly.Everyone heard that laugh.The voice was that of Altair, no one else.

Because the voice echoed on the wall of the room, it was difficult to understand the source of the voice, but everyone looked up at once.There was no sign of people hiding around, and I could only imagine that I could hear laughter coming from a floating sphere in the sky.

"I'm finally going to face Altair..."If everyone thinks so, there will be an unexpected development.

The laughter I heard--,

Fufufu!

* giggle *!

Haha!

—— One after another, a few seconds later, a laughing voice enveloped the room.

But naturally, there is no space in the room for so many people to hide... "That laughter, which no one was laughing at, was just a creepy word.The waltzes frowned as they watched their surroundings.

On the other hand, it seemed that the Great Sage had the opposite of the Waltzes and had a terribly happy expression on his face.And he mouths this as he reaches out his hands to a floating sphere.

"Ah... ahh! The Lord is delighted!"Even when we called, it was as if the Lord who hadn't dealt with us was so clear-cut! "

A wise man with his eyes wide open and his tears flashed as he raised his hands.Waltz, who was looking at the figure, deepened the wrinkles between his brows.

"It's crazy..."

As she said, the Great Sage looked exactly like a fanatic.I would say that his presence was one of the characters who was playing the creeps in this space.

In contrast, the other four, who were in the room with him, did not show anything emotional, as if it were a doll or something.Apart from words and facial expressions, the four pairs who do not even feel the signs of being a living being are not exaggeratedly thin, even if they are robots covered in human skin.Even if they said that it was a ghost, they didn't feel alive enough to feel any discomfort.

Waltz was troubled by the appearance of the four of them, the Great Sage, and the growing laughter.... it's okay to leave yourself to the situation as it is."I wonder if the situation could endanger my people..."

As a result, she tried to figure out a way to retreat —— that's when it happened.

”...... Lucia-chan”

Teresa-chan...

In the laughter echoing in the room, a statement clearly different from the laughter mixed up.



At that moment, Lucia and Teresa opened their eyes wide.I heard them call out their names.

When everyone was shipwrecked in a bygone era by Lucia's once-enchanted Orihalcon, commonly known as the "artifact," it was a resemblance to the voice of the girl Alto, the childhood Altair, whom they met in the world 1,200 years ago.The event itself may have been 1200 years ago, but for Lucia and the others, who have returned from the past era, it was just the other day.Even in the past, it was impossible for Lucia and the others to forget the voice of Alto, who was in a close relationship.

Therefore, they asked reflexively.

"Could it be, Alto...?"

"Miss Alto...?"

The moment the two of them spoke Alto's name, the laughter surrounding the room stopped at once.

Silent. Silent, yes. Suddenly the room was quiet, and the silence that made the ears hurt dominated the scene.

And after a few seconds, when the waltz couldn't stand the spookiness--

It's finally been a pleasure to meet you.

--A single voice came from the ceiling sphere.
