Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

The sky is clear, with rare, cloudless, sunny weather.

Often, however, Waltz's mood is the opposite of the weather.

For what reason?

It's caused by the person in front of Waltz.

"... wow, I say Teresa..."

A witch who talks while eating.

When the hell did you get mixed up?

After deciding to treat 20 women in the garden, when they came inside the house, they stayed with their friends.

"Uh... what do you mean?

At least, there were 20 of them when I transferred the woman.

This is for sure.

"You were already with us when we got back."

And, Catalina tells the truth.

I mean, I got involved at some convenience when I first transferred my people.

"Ahhh..."

Waltz holding his head.

Then the witch opens her mouth.

"Wow, I followed you from myself..."

I mean, I jumped into my people on the verge of transferring, that's why.

Indeed, it was such a big metastasis (in area) that it involved extras.

In fact, the ground floor of the workshop is littered with various debris.

"So... what are you going to do with us?

Waltz stares at the witch with his eyes narrowed.

Well, given the pattern so far, the words you say from the witch's mouth will be predictable.

(I guess the question is, can this stubborn daughter do it at this party...)

Waltz doesn't reject what he did.

Especially when it comes to judging whether or not you can do well with your people and yourself.

And then, do those who seem light-hearted also shy away?

When I saw the witch in front of me, I thought choosing a new member would also be the work of the leader - etc., but all the thoughts I had previously thought about in the words that flew from the witch were reset.

"Wow, I... yeah! Make your concubine one of us!

"Hey, what...?

Waltz lost his word.

Keep me company, the statement came with anticipation.

But I wasn't expecting the reason I was eating to hide this way of talking.

"The concubine is Teresa-Applefall. The Fourth Princess of the Mid-Eden Kingdom."

"Huh?!

Voices were raised not only by Waltz, but also by Lucia and the hunter.

"You may not believe it, but it's not true."

Say so, Witch (Teresa) (Princess?) shows the waltzes the ring on the necklace that is lowered around their necks.

Then the ring has fruit that falls from the tree (apple?) relief had been engraved.

"Ugh, wow... it's real..."

It was the hunter who reacted first.

Waltz didn't know the national chapter of this country, so there was no response, but he realized that the person in front of him was a real princess.

"That means..."

"We may be under suspicion of kidnapping or killing a princess."

And, tempo.

"Guuuuuuu...!!

Waltz turned bright white and accidentally kneeled.

If she had something called a stomach, she would have been blood-slapping.

Of course, it's stressful.

"What? God doesn't care about such details."

"No, it's not God... and why, I wanted to be one of them..."

Waltz asked the princess as she nearly cried.

"Um, that's not because you defeated that hateful angel!

Do you remember what happened at the time, the princess is arming herself, meditating her eyes and roaring 'yeah yeah'?

It would be no surprise that defeating an angel, the use of God, would be regarded as a superior being, or 'God', than an angel.

Besides, it is an inheritance of the matter.

"That's all?"

"Um, there's still a reason"

The princess removes the hood on her head.

Then,

"Fox ears..."

From above the silver hair, fox ears appeared darker than the hair.

"Beautiful..."

It's Lucia's feeling.

Especially from Waltz's eyes, the golden Lucia is no less.

The princess goes on to say why.

"Actually, the concubine is also a fox beast, but this way of speaking goes hand in hand, supposedly cursed... I was put in church to pay off my possessions, but I didn't even have to talk normally because the angels said," If I can't correct you, I'll put you on a witch trial. "In the first place, it may be called possession, but this way of speaking is just like my mother's, and she is not possessed or cursed by anything that is not good. What the hell do the castles and the angels of the church think?"

Haven't you had a decent chance to talk to me lately, the princess who started a machine gun talk by herself?

In summary, I didn't want to be in Wang Capital anymore, did I?

"Uh, I know you didn't want to be in Wang Du, but why did you want to be one of us?

Return to the first inquiry.

"This is it."

That's what I said, the princess touching her fox ear.

"Lord, you're gathering fox beasts, aren't you?

"No, I didn't collect it."

Answer immediately.

Then, a princess with a stunned face.

"... fox men are rare, aren't they? You say there are two foxes at the party but you haven't collected them?! It's... it's out!

I never understand what the hell I got out of it.

"So what are your lords partying for?

"What?"

Conversely, an unexpected question flew in.

What are we partying for?

"... I want to be strong for my dreams, for myself, or for my people, and we're all training."

"... So what's the goal? Where are you guys headed in the end?

"Goals..."

At the end of the training, what do you want to do and what do you want to do?

Waltz wanted me to be strong enough to resist even after I left this world one day, even if my people were attacked by irrational force.

On top of that, it is Waltz's ultimate goal to return to the world where he was.

So, what about the guys?

Is Catalina a dream rather than a goal of wanting to be able to save as many lives as possible?

Turning to her, naturally, she smiled with the expression.

But what about Lucia, the hunter, and the tempo?

When Waltz turned the three of them around, he was apparently troubled, except for the hunter.

A hunter opens his mouth when he notices Waltz's gaze.

"Me? I just want the power to protect everyone. I want to gain the strength to protect for my people and family. If you can get stronger to the limit and die without regret, I'm good enough."

Boulder, he's an old party man.

Rather than that, there is a verse that understands life.

If you think about it in terms of age, could we have a little freer goals?

Now, the problem is two people.

Lucia and Tempo.

How about asking a 10-year-old girl and a few weeks old Homunculus (Android) about her goals?

Nevertheless, they are also part of the waltz party.

Lucia, in particular, is Waltz's beloved apprentice and protector.

herself, there seemed to be something to think about, and after a difficult face, she opened her mouth.

"I..."

What answers can I get from a girl (Lucia) who is not old enough?

Waltz was more worried, and more excited, than anyone there.

"I want to get rid of war from this world"

(What...)

Unexpectedly, Waltz, who almost spoke.

But it was rude of me to raise my voice of doubt here, and I swallowed it desperately.

My colleagues around me are showing similar reactions.

But what about the statement that a child wants to "get rid of the war"?

Isn't that usually an adult job?

Rather, is this world more unusual to make children say this?

Lucia continues her words.

"Because if there wasn't even a war, your sisters didn't have to run, and my father and mother..."

Apparently, he thinks it's war about the witch trial.

(If the witch trial is to drain the gas of the people, it can't even be said to be irrelevant in the sense of dissipating the stress accumulated by the war, or...)

And Waltz thought, "Actually, that's not what I meant.

And my people realize it's a long way off...

In any case, if Lucia's strength, if she does poorly, the world could disappear instead of war.

Therefore, none of the companions laughed or said, "I can't," but listened seriously.

The rest is tempo.

"Tempo, you haven't..."

"No, sister. I also have a goal."

Contrary to Waltz's expectations, Tempo also seems to have a goal.

I don't know why, Waltz, but I don't even feel like a bomb statement popping out of tempo.

And she answered.

"I want to be human."

"Yeah, I thought maybe not."

To Tempo's words, Catalina looked somewhere satisfied.

Meanwhile, the princess, unable to follow the story, had a strange look on her face.

"But still enough, aren't we closer to humans than the Guardians?

"Yeah, it has a lifespan, and blood goes through it, so you're right."

(Yeah, I'm a bloody bitch!

physically, though.

"But I think. I can't be a person, I can't be a Guardian, I'm halfway there."

Waltz said, "Yes."

And I think.

I thought you hated yourself like that, created into a half-baked being who wasn't a person or a Guardian.

Therefore,

"... I'm sorry. I should have thought a little more about you being born..."

Apologized.

But behind Waltz's words,

"No, are you mistaken, sister?"

and Tempo answers.

"I don't resent anything about your sister. Rather, I am grateful."

Apparently, it was Waltz's concern.

"I want to make the most of the standing position given to me. That's all."

Standing position that is neither a person nor a Guardian.

What do you want to do with it?

"I..."

For once, I said it out loud, and I said my goals.

"I want children."

"Hey..."

Was it that way..., I think, Waltz.

But if you think about the structure of her body, it's not impossible.

Rather, it is possible.

However, the child to be born should have a gene for Catalina.

That means...

"I don't think so, but rewriting the genes... or something"

"That's great, sister"

In other words, Tempo said he wanted to make a child, not a copy of Catalina, but after creating a gene as an individual called 'Tempo'.

"... are you serious?

Seriously, nothing, is that possible?

Even if it is possible, how much time and trial and error will it take?

"I mean it."

But the tempo didn't get lost, affirmed.

"Yes..."

Already, there were no words to say in the tempo that set my mind.

... Waltz was making a mistake.

This trip was also supposed to be a fun one for Waltz to spend in (...) ah (...) ah (...).

But for my people, it was a journey to fulfill their dreams, an immediate training journey.

Half-play waltz and I had a different mind...

(I... wonder what you want...)

What is my 'dream'?

Waltz continues to be troubled alone.

With such a leader (waltz) elsewhere, the Princess seemed convinced when she heard the members' goals (dreams).

"There were some difficult stories, I see. Looks like an interesting party after all. Then the concubine will talk about her dreams."

Some, some, have not spoken of goals, but I guess I read from the expression that there are solid goals.

The princess opened her mouth about her dreams.

"The dream of a concubine is to have her own country."

(Hmm? But it's a royal dream)

But in the position of fourth princess, succession to the throne is in order of despair.

No way, you're going to kill all your brothers.

"Therefore, I wanted to be one of those lords who would defeat even angels, and help them."

and say why.

Indeed, with the help of Waltz and Lucia alike, we will be able to obtain one or two places in the country, easily.

But that wasn't the only reason the princess wanted to come into this party.

Besides, I wanted to be one of the Waltz and the others because I didn't have a ton to demonstrate.

It's...

"At the dawn of our founding, we want to welcome Lord Waltz as our son-in-law."

I'm sorry. I didn't hear you very well... "

"Yes! Don't make me say too much embarrassment over and over. I'm asking you to marry my concubine!

"Yeah, I can't"

"Higu...!!

Waltz responding instantly to tempo and the princess sinking and sinking into the ground.

... how did this happen?

Waltz peeks into the mirror that was nearby and checks his face.

(Yeah. You don't look like a man... do you?

"Hey, Catalina?

"What is it?

"I'm a girl, right?

"... is it not?

"No, you're not..."

Apparently, it's not like Waltz's perception is wrong.

She doesn't have breasts, but she looks like a healthy woman.

Of course, nobody mentions breasts.

Aside from that, to the princess lying on the ground, the hunter rang to see if she had anything to think about.

But don't make it sound like a waltz.

"Dear Teresa,"

The princess, relieved to kneel on the ground, reacted to the hunter with her eyes without light.

"Suddenly marriage is awkward. I was wondering if we could start with your friends."

Guh, a hunter who makes a grip in front of his chest all the time.

Then, anger began to return to the princess's eyes.

"Yes... you're right. I don't know what I'm gonna give up about this! So why don't you ask your friends to do it?

To the words of such a princess, a waltz in a totally dong-pulling state.

But I just couldn't return 'impossible' to the word 'I want you to be my friend'.

"Ha... okay, princess."

"Teresa."

Teresa.

Looks like Waltz's friends have a lot of freaks.

Does the kind call for friends?

Well, the only thing I can call a friend is a hunter.
