Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

After that, as if nothing had happened, the waltzes continued to stroll around the village.

There were no other monsters like the monkeys in the forest that seemed particularly threatening, and the monkeys didn't bother Waltz and Lucia, so they enjoyed a very meaningful walk.

The problem will arise when you return to the village. No, we should say that the problem itself was after it had already happened.

"What... is this..."

The houses in the village were half destroyed as if they had been attacked by a mob. A large stone was thrown into the window, something like dirt was smashed against the wall, and the roof plate was peeled off... The people of the village who had been attacked by such a situation seemed to be standing idly by.

Fortunately, there was not a single scratch on the waltzes' new home. On the contrary, just like when I left the village, it was spotless. Among the houses in the damaged village, only the square and white houses, like tofu, kept their appearance gently.

Looking at the situation, Waltz guessed.

"Ah, it's the monkey's doing..."

Monkey?

"Yeah. You go up to the roof like that, and you bother to strip the board, or something that humans wouldn't do." Besides, the monsters I saw around here were like Weyburn, rabbits or squirrels, and there were only monkeys to erase. Well, it looks like a small bird, but there might be some monsters (Nik) inside that look like beasts, but if that kind of thing attacks the village, it should be here and there, and the cause should be a monkey after all. "

"I wonder if the monkey is a monster as it seems..." With such a glimmer of anxiety, Waltz pulled Lucia's hand and went into the village.

Then the villagers noticed the two of them... "

Zawah, zawah...

The reaction of the villagers seemed to have been slightly different from this morning, two minutes. There are two kinds of people who look at the waltzes as well as this morning, and there are two kinds of people who look at the waltzes as if they are lost.

As the waltzes walk through the village, noticing the subtle change, they see crowds forming in front of their homes. A group of people, including the village chief, were arguing in front of the waltzes' homes in a somewhat steep manner.

“It's bad language to ask for help from those kids who don't know where they are!”

No, no, no, no. If you live in this village, it's only natural for you to provide labor.

"In the first place, can we expect them to work hard?"

"Just for one night... no, I can use unknown magic to build my house in an instant." "Now it's like a fortress..." Could it be a "student" after all? "

I saw you hunting their boss in an instant yesterday, so you're sure to have power.

Rather, aren't they rampaging because of it?

Is that why the village was attacked!

"Well, wait a minute. Hurry up and come to a conclusion--"

I noticed that the talk was moving in a scorching direction, and when the waltz was frowning, it seemed that the other side also noticed that the waltzes were returning, and they all turned their gaze towards the waltzes.

The gaze was still half critical, the other half confused. In any case, it looks like he has something to say to the waltzes. Apparently, the whole village didn't have the idea of monolithic rock.

However, it seems that the decision-making method was decided... "Once the gaze on the waltzes was removed, the village chief (?). In the event of controversy, the final decision rests with the village chief (?) I wonder if it is there.

And after some thought, the village mayor made the conclusion--

"... I have a question for both of you."

--Rejecting it, not asking for help, but asking questions.
