Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events
13.7-22 Tea Party 22
DOGOOOOOO!!
The battle between Catalina and Cortex began near Waltz and the Great Sage.Their opponents are four pairs of Homunculus, who seem to have lost their vitality.
One of them, Catalina, remembered.
“He looks very much like one of the Homunculus we've caught before.It's probably a homunculus made from those Leonardo and Leah somatic cells. "
Leonardo the Brave and Leah the Wizard, members of his party, were once abducted by the former King of the Mercrio Kingdom, Altair's servant.At that time, the two of them were used in human experiments, and Leah had a disease in which magic power came out of her body."It seems that they were deprived of other body cells..."Homunculus, based on the cells, and Catalina had experience fighting.
While fighting him, Catalina managed to retrieve only the head of the homunculus.However, the structure of the human brain and Homunculus seemed to be different, and even with Catalina's recovery magic, he could not recover his consciousness.Even now, he remains asleep in Catalina's lab.
Catalina seemed a little confused because a homunculus just like him appeared in front of her.But as soon as she sorted out her thoughts, she began to build possibilities in her mind.
"Homunculus clones, or did you originally make multiple..."If you think about Éclair's revival technique, you can't discard the possibility of replacing the Homunculus consciousness that you fought with another "container" and operating it. "
Catalina gave a sad expression as she wore a large hooded coat and stared at Homunculus, who turned a faint gaze to herself.He fought before because he was a more human person, but now he didn't feel anything alive at all.
"If you use it too much for human experiments, you'll have that expression..."In Catalina's heart, there was a color of pity.
There was also Cortex standing next to her, and although she knew about the Homunculus that Catalina had fought against, she seemed to have a gentle expression on her face as usual.
"Speaking of which, that's what happened ~."But it was the enemy. If you want to get stuck, you've got to get rid of it.Is that all right with you, Catalina-sama? "
"...... I can't help it. Even if she was Leonardo's and Leah's children... it's no wonder that she's left alone.I'll take care of the business. I'm going! "
It was that moment.
Gyuuuuuu!!
Catalina disappeared from the scene.I accelerated at a tremendous speed and ran to Homunculus, which looked like a hero.It was her unique super acceleration that allowed her to freely disable or instantly repair the limiter on the human body.
Her behavior was exactly as she had agreed with Cortex in advance.Catalina plays the front, and Cortex plays the back.As a result, Cortex was looking at Catalina who had left before from behind.
"(Even if Catalina-sama doesn't get her hands dirty on purpose, I'll take care of the business instead ~..."Because I am there for that ~) "
--As a Cortex, she seemed to be exhaling deeply.Especially, that's what she's talking about inside.
"Come on! Evaporate and annihilate!"[Cortefrere] ~! "
DOGOOOOOO!!
Almost without delay, Catalina jumped out, and Cortex began supporting her.
