Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

14.2-08 The Beasts and Magic 8

"(Now! Let's go!)" Shut up.

Villagers —— The waltz didn't miss the moment the knights turned their gaze away from the makeshift dwelling, opened the door of his home in a flowing motion, and burst out at once. Controlling gravity, it accelerates from a stationary state to a maximum speed in an instant, then dives into the shadows of the bushes and stops suddenly. In the meantime, what a 0.1 second. Perhaps this is precisely what you mean by a speed that you can't keep an eye on.

It was a movement that could only be said to be impossible for humans because there was generally time for acceleration and deceleration, but it was a gravity control system of stony rocks. Even though I didn't have enough power to float the waltz, I was able to freely accelerate and decelerate the waltz like a rocket booster. I ignored all of her weight, ground friction, and air resistance to aid her movement.

As a result, the waltzes succeed in flying out of the house without anyone finding them. Of course, because even if someone sees you in a flash like 0.1 seconds, you can only recognize the amount of dust in your eyes.

Nevertheless, the fact that Waltz was playing an escape play while freaking out was because her criteria were strange. Even though the speed of thought and cognition was far out of the ordinary, I was thinking about things at my own perception speed. You could say that it was her way of thinking that didn't quite understand how fast people were reacting.

And the mindset was still alive and well, hidden in the bushes near my home. I went out of my way to watch the timing of what the knights couldn't find when I ran straight into the woods.

"(Shit! This bush is about to burst out...)"

About 3m to the next bush. If you ultra-acceleration, you can travel in less than 0.03 seconds.

But Waltz thought about it. If I showed myself, the knights would find out that I was moving. It's a futile worry.

The knights, on the other hand, said that it was already in a state of fear. Friends fainted one after another from acoustic attacks, and even those who were hit by stone-like objects on their backs and blew up in an irresistible manner were eliminated. Moreover, I didn't feel any kind of magic power, and it was a situation where only sudden results would occur. There was no way they could remain in a normal state of mind in such a situation, and everyone seemed to be wary of their surroundings, paleing their faces and desperately hiding in the shadows.

It goes without saying what they are. Considering the waltzes so far, it would have been strange not to be assaulted by the knights.

Yes, they are the Knights Guards of Grand Duke Josephine. They rushed to hear that Josephine had appeared in the village.

Especially, it seemed like it didn't matter to the Waltz.

"(Blowing up people who get in the way of moving?... I can't. I'm completely alert, so I can't see my body)"

Whether it's an acoustic attack released by a waltz or a pebble attack (?) However, in fact, there was no intention to hurt the other person at all. Waltz was launching an attack, considering that the opponent would not get hurt.

It was possible because the knights were not alert. But now the Knights are in full alert mode. It's like hiding your body in the shadows, just letting your head out and checking the situation. In other words, you can't hit a stone. Because if you hit it badly, you'll die. The same applies to acoustic attacks. As mentioned above, it is not desirable to be effective over armor.

"(Eight-way blockage...?)"

Waltz assumed that the bushes where the waltzes were were in a position where they would be in the eyes of the knights, and if they moved a little bit, they would be found by the knights. Therefore, she wanted to divert the knights' gaze from her direction, but there was no such thing as the knights' attention nearby, and there was no denying the sense of clogging.

"How can I distract the knights..." The cornered waltz suddenly comes up with a way. Of course, it was a way of doing things that wasn't too busy.
