Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

Thanks to Lucia, safe (?) One line after finishing the hunt decided to return to the village.

On the way home, Waltz, who had another concern besides bringing the prey home, asked the hunter.

"Speaking of which, Mr. Hunter? Is there a refrigerator in this village?

How to treat the massive prey before it rots......

I hear Waltz wasn't worried about that.

If you don't have a fridge, the demons you sent to the village will soon rot.

"Hmm? What the... Reiko, what do you mean?

"Um, it's a device that was in my country, but it's about the stuff that comes out of the cold air to keep the food from rotting"

and waltz explaining, even if there is no refrigerator itself in this world, is there a device close to it?

Then, the hunter looked somewhere in agreement, and when he pounded his hand......

I started talking about a certain tool.

"Oh, you mean the demonic props you keep in the warehouse? In the summer, it's cool and pleasant."

"Heh. Is there such a thing as a" demon prop "..."

"What? It's not a demon prop, what's going on?

"What... Yes, no, that's right... The refrigerator that was in my country was like a demon prop..."

and in a bit of a hurry, waltz to supplement about the fridge.

Needless to say, the refrigerator is demonized (?), not electric.

◇

Then the waltzes finally came back to the village after walking on the beast road for about 30 minutes.

Waltz and his hunters then broke up at the entrance to the blue-roofed building, which was next to the tavern, did not return straight to the tavern......

The two of us were coming to a nearby mountain.

"Come on. Well, shall we mine the ore?

"Koshi?

"Yes, ore. Gold, silver, jewelry, Zach Zach?

"Yeah?"

And I don't know what Waltz is talking about, Lucia tilting her neck like that.

It should be noted that there is no gold, silver, or precious metal jewelry such as diamonds or rubies in this world.

Lucia had nothing but mountains, and I didn't think they could be mined.

Especially since precious metals can not be mined anywhere, it was not always possible to mine them from this mountain.

But the odds are unlimited, even close to zero, but not complete zero.

Waltz, with such pale expectations, occasionally stopped, seemed to check on the radar to see what was going on underground.

"Well, no and naturally. If I had, I wouldn't have made any money."

"You naturally don't have one... you dig?

"Yep. The real purpose is not gold or silver. Of course, I know you can dig it if you have it... but it would have been, and it could be a bit of a hassle... Where to sell it..."

"Ah... well. With that said, sister, it's hard to sell... you said that yesterday, didn't you?

"Yep. Hopefully, I want to spend the future in perpetuity, peace, so trouble is a bit...... That's why I'm trying to dig here... this is it!/(adv, adv-to) (1) (uk) (uk) (uk) (uk) (uk) (uk) (uk) (uk) (uk) (uk) (uk) (uk) (uk) (uk) (uk) (uk) (uk) (uk) (uk) (uk)

That's what I said, waltz picking up the red stone that was rolling on the ground on the spot.

"You know what this is?

".................. stone?

"Well, yeah. I think you're absolutely right. But... that's a little different from the answer I was hoping for..."

"What..."

and Lucia solidifies with a subtle look on her face, not knowing what the hell Waltz was looking for.

Seeing her like that makes Waltz smile...

Lucia had a pochette - pointing precisely at the buckle of the belt that was on there -

"What are you trying to collect and make of this stone... is this it?

And I said it.

"What... this hardware?

"Yeah. Well, to be exact, the raw material for this hardware... iron, huh?

"This red stone... is going to be iron?!

"Damn. 'Cause this is iron..."

…………

How the hell can a stone falling to the ground turn into shiny iron...

Because she couldn't figure it out, Lucia seemed to stare at the red stone in a rare way.

But even when we stopped on the spot, the red stones didn't gush on their own or have mineral veins...

Looks like they decided to climb the mountain path about another 500m from there.

And just came to a place where rock skin was peeling off, Waltz said, stopping his leg.

I turned to Lucia, who was following me a little out of breath from behind me, and threw this question.

"Hey, Lucia? You, earthly magic... can you use it?

I don't know if there is a presence called earthly magic in this world, waltz how I questioned it with anticipation.

Lucia then responded, shaking her head vertically.

"Yeah. You can use it, right?

"Whoa. Then can you dig a cave or something on this rocky skin?

"Hmm... I've never done it, but I think maybe I can"

"Well, you can try it, so you can dig straight from here about 50m. I knew there wasn't going to be any gold or silver... but there's going to be a lot of iron ahead... Oh, and make the holes as wide as you can, huh?

"Yeah, okay!

"(……… Hmm? Metric is a unit… does it go through? Or, I don't know what you mean by meters, but maybe we're just talking appropriately for now?)"

and as Waltz leaned his neck, Lucia quickly put that little hand against the rock......

And gather the magic to the palm of your hand (?), tried to exercise earthly magic.

Looking at that......

Looks like Waltz was thinking about this.

"(So far, fire magic and wind magic have been tremendously powerful... what about dirt magic?

- Maybe every mountain will blow up.

Or maybe, with fierce momentum, the dirt and sand will blow out......

Waltz seemed to imagine such a dangerous development.

As a result, she developed a gravitational barrier to protect Lucia, just in case.

Bun......

"Hole, did you open it? Sister."

Fortunately, it did not seem to be the same development Waltz thought it would be.

"Oh... thanks...... (I mean, where did the rocks you dug disappear?

Waltz considers the whereabouts of the rocks that disappeared from the spot, as if they had been flown with metastatic magic.

Note that for more information, Lucia didn't even know...

In the end, the rock was literally buried in the darkness.
