Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

I had a big problem returning to Operations. It's a very big problem. It's not surprising that the land of Mid-Eden is leaning.

"... it's embarrassing to meet everyone in this outfit..."

Most of the shyness of the waltz, which was not good at appearing in public because there was usually a "temporary body" called a mobile armor or hologram body, was diminished. However, now the body that could be said to be alive was exposed, and as a waltz, it was embarrassing. You can say that even though you were dressed, you were almost naked and embarrassed.

Therefore, the young-looking waltz pulls Lucia's sleeve and stops. No matter how you look at it, it belongs to a girl who looks exactly like it. Because of that, Lucia unexpectedly loosened her cheeks.

Well then, are you waiting somewhere?

Lucia asked, as if speaking to a toddler, and Waltz, instead of being grumpy, suddenly looked up at the sky and thought about it, and then responded.

"It's all over now, so it might be a good idea to go somewhere far away and live in detail..." So I made some more mobile armor, and when it's done, I'll be back in front of everyone. "

That's a joke. If I had met Cortex and Strella like this, I'd have expected them to play with their looks.

Waltz seemed to think that words of bitterness and denial were coming from Lucia....... The only thing embarrassing is the first inner part. If you get used to it, you won't get used to it.

Therefore, Lucia's words--no, the behavior of the waltz surprises me.

"... yes. Yes. That's good, right?

"... what?"

When Lucia answered Waltz's question, she grabbed her hand and jumped into the air.

"What?! Whoa..."

"Onee-chan, it's so light when you look like that."

"Wait a minute?! Lucia?! Why are you flying all of a sudden..."

Huh? I'm going somewhere far away?

"Ehhh..."

"Because I wanted to go far, just as my sister wanted to go far." Do you need some time to think about it? "

…………

Waltz could not refute Lucia's words. Until this moment, I realized that Waltz was only thinking about himself. Lucia knew she was going to be shocked in the fight against Altair. It was only natural that I wanted to look back at my past, present, and future.

Waltz, who was worried about it, did not retract his remarks--

"... I see. Then you can fly to where Lucia wants to go."

It looks like Lucia decided to do what she wanted. Sometimes I wanted to be seen by myself and my colleagues, and even if there were affirmative materials, I could hardly find the opposite. If you say it hard, I thought my friends might be worried about suddenly disappearing, but I didn't have to face each other directly to report my safety... I think we should use the radio or something to report it.

Thus, the Waltzes took off again from the returning Operations Command HQ, and began to move westward. It also leaves the continent and crosses the ocean to the other side.

As a result, I was worried about the waltzes who would never come back (?) The Cortexes formed what would become the "Waltz Tracking Force"... The waltzes will not be aware of their forces for a while.
