Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

Waltz and Lucia were in the house when Josephine rushed out of the house. They seemed to be doing some work, and chasing Josephine was slower than Asteria, but they were chasing after her.... but don't let the Josephines find you.

However, after being found by the Asteria, I can't hide anymore--

"I have no choice but to come out!" Onee-chan! ”

"Ah?! Huh?! Wait!!"

—— Leaving Josephine's waltz behind, Lucia jumped out of the shadows. Well, Waltz jumped out from behind about Lucia and caught up with her right away.

"Hello, Grand Duke. May I call you Josephine?"

Lucia's question was grand. I stretched my chest out and asked while hiding my waltz on my back, such as onee-san, who was stretching her back. Waltz, on the other hand, was grabbing the hem of Lucia's clothes and turning her confused gaze to Josephine, so she still looked more like her sister.

Josephine, on the other hand, seemed to be wary as soon as she saw the two of them. Since both of the faces in the last memory before losing consciousness appeared side by side, I can say that it is impossible not to be vigilant.

"... Josephine is fine." Who are you guys? "

Didn't he say his name? I'm Lucia. "

"Well, I'm a waltz..."

After hearing their names, Josephine looked alert and looked like a sister (?) I asked Lucia.

"Well, Lucia, let me ask you something. Why did you bring me here? The ransom... no, are you going to use it as a political tool?"

"Yeah? No? I was talking to you, and suddenly Josephine collapsed, so I just brought her here to think about her." I don't know how much this country's medical technology is, but in the worst case, it could be dead. I just happened to visit you, but if the Archduke dies there, it's going to be a big case, right? Then I'd better cure it secretly. "

Hearing Lucia's words, Josephine was puzzled in her heart. Lucia's story sounds like the Grand Duchy of Restophen is a backward country with poor medical care. If Lucia's remarks belittled the Grand Duchy of Restofen, then it's a very rude story, but if Lucia is from a country with more advanced technology than the Grand Duchy of Restofen, then it's a different story. Moreover, since Lucia and the others created this underground space, Josephine could not underestimate Lucia and the others.

However, Josephine predicted that the odds of coming from a country with more advanced technology than the Grand Duchy of Restofen would be extremely low. Because there is no country on this continent that possesses more magic technology and science and technology than the Grand Duchy of Restophen. The possibility that the irregular country sent a messenger is almost nil because the name of the country has not been given so far. If you were to come on behalf of "that country", you would have been contacted in advance, so it was very unlikely that Lucia would be that irregular.

Therefore, Josephine decides to ask a question. If you ask me directly where I come from, you'll know right away. Josephine's tone bursts with anger, perhaps because she felt indirectly bewitched by the Grand Duchy of Restofen.

"So you're from a country where medical technology is more advanced than the Grand Duchy of Restofen?"

"Well, I don't know what kind of medical technology in this country is, but no matter what kind of injury Josephine suffered, is there any technology that can cure it?" Well, I don't think there's anything you can do if your head is blown off by the boulder..... "

"...... Really?"

Although Josephine didn't put it on the table, she disappeared inside. Lucia's statement is the opposite, because it is nothing more than saying that if her head is safe, it will happen. It is a testament to Lucia's origins as a medical power. If it wasn't a full story, as the Grand Duke of the Grand Duchy of Restophen, it was a horrible story.

Josephine knew only one country that could do such demo medicine. Therefore, she tries to ask the name of the country--

"The name of the country is probably--"

"Oh, I'm sorry? I can't tell you where it came from. I'm terribly sorry if I had to say a bad thing and go to war with my country....."

I knew beforehand that I had no intention of telling Lucia--

"... I see..."

—— I stopped asking questions.... yes, Josephine is just like a prisoner of war. If Lucia and the others are in a bad mood, the next moment, Josephine may be dead.
