Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

1.2-02 Journey to Town 2

Then walking down the street for roughly 5 hours.

The area was perfectly brightened, and two suns in the sky were still dazzling today.

Meanwhile, even after several breaks, the three of them keep walking well......

In one day today, it looks like we were already traveling quite a distance.

"Yeah? Sister. That song, what?

"Hmm? Is that... is that a song that was popular in my country? It's just a song that imitates the sound of animals, but you can't get it out of your ear..."

"Hmm."

……♪

"Something's going on in my ear... ~ ~"

Three of us singing a song while we had that conversation, and one more going over the hill.

The hills they were walking on were stained green on one side......

Flowers of various colors, such as red and yellow, purple and blue, seemed to bloom.

To deduce from the condition, temperature, etc., is this season as much as a little past spring?

Naturally there were bugs there, and they seemed to fly around looking for honey from flower to flower.

Did you come up with that when you saw it...

Lucia asked Waltz a question.

"Hey, sister. There's no bug squealing or anything like that?

"There are no bugs... But did bugs ring anything besides Meanmeen and Lynn Lynn?

At that moment...

"" What... "

and Lucia and the hunter pointing a surprised look at the waltz.

Apparently there is no such thing as a semi or tin worm in this world, or it is full of a wide variety of worm sounds that Waltz doesn't know......

Seeing such Lucia's reaction, Waltz seemed to have rushed to change the content of the story, having perceived that he had stepped on a mine.

Oddly enough, just in front of me, I could see the depressed and bushy woods...

Looks like she decided to raise it as a topic.

"Eh...... ah! Could that be the forest of examples? ♪ Give it to me

"Hmm? Oh, yeah. It's that forest."

"That forest?

"Right. Lucia was asleep earlier, so you weren't listening."

When the hunter said so, he also began to explain to Lucia what he had been dealing with Waltz earlier.

"Actually, that forest, the bad guys are nesting. What if a pretty girl like Lucia walks through the woods by herself..."

"... why don't we all blow up every forest?!

"" What... "

Waltz and the hunter show a doubtful bare ear at the same time because the words back from Lucia with a serious look were slightly different from what they had expected.

At that time, neither of them immediately denied, 'No, it doesn't,' because if you think about Lucia's magic, it wasn't a story that could never happen?

On the other hand.

Lucia herself didn't seem to realize that her words contained strange points, and she seemed to have accidentally tilted her neck after seeing how the waltzes were doing.

"Um... I was wondering if I said something strange?

In response to Lucia's inquiry...

"... no. I think you're right. There's nothing wrong with you, is there?

"Right...... I agree......"

and waltz how they couldn't find any other words to answer.

They never changed the look on Lucia's face...

Inside of it, there must have been more than a cold sweat.

Anyway, because the 'blow up' subject she said should probably include ourselves...

Then shortly, the line reaches the woods.

"Wow... like a castle?

"It feels like a black wall..."

Waltz and Lucia, near the entrance to the woods, once, stop and watch the woods.

At the tip of their gaze like that, the dense trees of the leaves grow hissing together...

With the exception of the streets through the woods, the shade was darkened.

It's not strange that there are bucket things lurking that don't get anything to say - it looks that way.

Well, according to the hunter's story, in fact, it looks like the bandits are setting up Negijo.

"If we keep going like this, we should be able to pass by evening...... don't be distracted, okay?

"Yeah. You're not gonna pull it out, are you?

"(Lucia...... I don't think so, but am I mistaken?

And when I ran over to the grasshoppers growing on the side of the road, Lucia, who had a delightful look on her face, didn't even think that she was actually wrong about 'chi' and 'tree'.

Then she takes her eyes off Lucia and switches her mind......

I questioned the hunter who was next door.

"Um, Mr. Hunter? What if there was something like being attacked, hurting or, worst of all, killing someone in defense... are you guilty?

"No, if the other one strikes first, you won't be held guilty even if the counter-attack results in the other being unilaterally harmed. Especially if you know your opponent is a bandit, rather enough to get paid a bounty if you crusade. Well, if the other guy can't prove he's a bandit or admit he's in self-defense, it'll be a bit of a hassle... but then I'll do something about it, so the waltzes are free to do it, okay?

"What... what can I do... hunter, can you do something?

And, listening to the hunter, waltz frowning.

As for her, she didn't think the ”hunter” in the border village was the kind of story she could manage.

As a hunter, however, he seemed firmly confident.

"Oh, there's so much twitching. First of all, I think you'll be absolutely fine, so I need you to stay on the big ship.... No. Am I the one on the big ship?"

She said that and smiled bitterly, about two steps ahead of the waltz......

Took two daggers out of nowhere and beat them into the sheath of his hips.

Apparently, she kept her gains hidden, besides having deposited them with Waltz.

That's how she got behind her back.

…………

Waltz and Lucia looking at what a subtle sight it is difficult to say.

To observe from those two expressions......

The waltzes seemed to have such complex feelings towards the hunters that they could not speak for themselves in a word.
