Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

4 After-07 Suspicious death

Waltz and his men walk in a completely dark Wang capital, fully equipped with armor (Chef II style).

"Do you know where he is?

"Yep. We've been chasing each other ever since we left, so you know what I mean?

It had markers on the tempo and Yulia appearance on the bioreactive sensors and radar.

The difficulty with this marker is that when the statue on the radar overlaps with the others, it becomes indistinguishable and it becomes difficult to know which one is which.

Nevertheless, there can be no "Lost" at the moment of overlap, so markers are also awarded to other overlapping ones.

In other words, using this feature in a city with a lot of people, the next day, Julia was growing to 100 people, something could happen.

Fortunately, in the Wang capital, there were times when strict martial law had been laid, when residents did not come out of the house in fear of demons and demons, and that did not happen.

"What... chasing you?

"Well, it's magical."

"... hmm."

Some badly toothed Lucia.

Then she created a grain of light over her head with a large beam size and began to move freely.

"... is that dangerous?

"... that's not true, is it?

And, Lucia says, if Waltz remembers correctly, it should be a ton of demo magic that skewered thousands of demons the other day, like a homing laser.

"Well, I don't know if I have to hit people..."

"It's gonna be okay, okay?

Then,

Bowong...

A light sphere that raises the roar and travels at an unnoticed speed to the right and to the left.

Looking at the fact that it doesn't hit the walls of the house on the street in a critical way, it seems pretty, controllable.

"You can go after people, too, right?

"Heh... but if I could, I wonder if my people would want me to go after them"

"Yeah. I wouldn't go after him except Julia, would I?

... Again, the impression of Julia in Lucia seems to suck.

"... if possible, don't chase Julia either..." Could it still be chasing you?!

"Yeah!"

Apparently, it was too late.

"Since when are you chasing me?

"Uh, right after we get into the city?

I've been chasing him for a long time.

"All the way around the corner."

Turning around the alley, he tasted (and) entered the area where Waltz had broken into the walls of the king's capital, namely the warehouse district.

Then more than one shadow enters the eye two blocks away.

On the head of one of them, I could see the light spinning at high speed, like an angel ring, even from afar.

"Tempo, Julia"

"Sister."

I got a response from Tempo.

"How about the end?

"That's..."

"Ma, you'll see..."

There were many figures in Waltz's eyes.

However, you are not standing.

It is falling to the ground.

They were all like Yulia, dreamers like Sacubas and Incubus.

"... what happened?

Waltz's complexion changes.

"I don't know. By the time we got here, we'd already..."

Julia leans down on the ground in front of her fellow tasters.

But realizing that the waltzes had come, Julia also opened her mouth.

"... when I went to the warehouse in Ajito, no one was there... so I looked around..."

They were all out of time.

"... Vega's work?

(But even humans who are enemies are not darkless enough to kill the same demons, even if they are exotic...)

Alternatively, the native tribe of this one. Regards, it is possible that he murdered them on the grounds of 'warrior'.

"... the most likely killer is... a human? Speaking of which, you had a brave man."

There is no denying the possibility that he ate the entanglement when the brave entered.

Alternatively, it would be awkward to determine the brave man as the culprit in general, as some of the fascinating demon eyes do not work, like the owners of the taverns in the village of Alk.

"Can I have a word?

With that said, Waltz touches the body and measures the temperature.

The temperature had already dropped and there was no stiffness after death.

Furthermore, the date and time of death are estimated based on the external characteristics of the lower abdomen and blood vessels.

"... two days after he died."

"You know very well."

"Right. Catalina may not know because she's only been dealing with living people, but corpses say things, too?

... Of course, Waltz doesn't have that experience either.

In her case, knowledge from a database, accumulated inside of manoeuvre armor.

In particular, it remains doubtful whether the same can be said for the Demons.

"Were you left here for two days?

"... that's what happens"

Waltz can only answer the hunter's question yes.

"So the Vegas aren't the killers?

"Mm-hmm, but there were no bodies of soldiers who were supposed to have fought back on the road from entering the Wang capital, were there? Maybe I handled it properly, but then I don't know why these people aren't the only ones handled..."

"Hmm... actually, I can think of a possibility that the soldiers have become appropriate."

"... right"

There are many possibilities, but I knew too little information to say for sure.

So Waltz approached me wondering if I could get any information from the body.

"So, the cause of death... yeah, you don't know."

No trauma.

There's no sign of compression on his neck.

No signs of suffering, no signs of suffocation.

(If possible, poisoning or unexplained heart failure?

Though I looked at it a lot, in the end, I didn't get anything from it either.

If you insist, it's not usually dead, is it?

"... for now, all I know is that the brave man is not the killer. Because it's today that they came into the king's capital..."

"Right. No way, once we entered, we wouldn't have gone back again..."

(Speaking of which, there's a hole in the wall near here, right?)

And remember, maybe the brave are the killers after all?, then realizes there is a denial material.

"Well, the braves should have cuts and magic marks, but that doesn't seem to be there either. By the way, is there instant death magic, Catalina?

"What is it, that seemingly convenient magic?

"Yeah. If you don't know, fine. That means the brave man completely disappeared. Thinking about it, aren't the Vegas and the people in town the same?

"Hmm... I can't even think of a special way to kill Lord Waltz in a place like this..."

(Really, I don't know how he died...)

Waltz felt unexplained anxiety about not knowing the cause of his death.

Later, the remains, which had fallen unconstitutionally on the ground, are carefully buried with Lucia's fire magic.

"Julia. Are you okay?

Waltz spoke to Julia, staring quietly at her companions turning into ashes as they were surrounded by pale flames.

"... right. When you ask me if I'm okay... I'm sure you're shocked. You just don't think it's realistic... Many times my people have been lost... and maybe my senses have diminished..."

"... you look terrible."

"Ha ha... often said"

That's what makes her smile, her face was supposed to be terrible with tears and runny nose marks.

Wipe your face with your sleeves to Waltz's point.

"... if it's hard, can I go back to your country?

Then Julia took her gaze off the waltz and stared at the ashed companions before saying:

"... no, because my mission is to monitor the witches (waltzes) who left the King's Capital at that time"

"Yes, you don't regret it, do you?

"Yes."

"Yes..."

Listening to Julia's response, Waltz sighed inside.

And tell.

"... then let me show you who I am"

"... Huh?

When the cremation of his companions was over and the area darkened, Waltz erased his hologram and disarmed the optical camouflage of manoeuvre armor.

"Evening, little bat (Julia)."

In the dark, Julia kept her mouth open and solidified as she looked up at the giant standing next to her at some point.

"... and tempo! How long are you gonna be using my arms! Give it back!"

"I forgot."

Scratching his head poly, tempo returns arm access before being overridden by waltz.

"It's a corner introduction, but it's ruined."

"Isn't it just right for the pressure to go away?

"What's that way of saying? It's not like you're under pressure from me. It's cut right now."

Tempo's pressure is not, of course, about pressure (lock-on).

"Oh, good. Well... nice to meet you, Julia. I'm the waltz."

After that, Waltz offers the right hand of manoeuvre armor.

But...

Julia doesn't seem conscious.

"... what, this girl. Are you fainting again?!

I guess this is what you say about the lack of light in your eyes.

"Hey... somebody, give him some notice"

"... you have no choice"

"Ha!"

As Catalina tries to get closer, suddenly her consciousness returns to Julia.

He's not very good at it.

And I looked alternately at Waltz's figure and the right hand he was offering and snapped.

"Oh... Lord..."

The Lord in this case is about Sirius the Demon King.

"I seem to have come to an area where I shouldn't have stepped..."

Which Bermuda Triangle?

"So, Julia? This is who I am, but still come with me? For once, we're headed to your hometown, but we don't know when, and maybe we'll be fighting the Demon King, too, right?

Silent Julia seemed to be looking at the hand of manoeuvre armor (waltz) and thinking about it, though she had not lost consciousness.

And I opened my mouth after a while of thinking.

"... I'm not willing to change my mind. Otherwise, you won't be able to face your people, and you won't be able to meet the lord of your hometown."

"So you're coming with me?

"... yes. Regards... Shh!

"Nice to meet you."

So Yulia is officially at the waltz party (?) I decided to participate.

That said, something doesn't change.

Waltz raised his voice after finishing his face-to-face encounter with Julia and returning to his original appearance.

"Well, shall we go home"

"Eh."

A continuation of the conversation we had with Lucia before we got here... not.

"No? I have a bad feeling about it."

"What's a bad feeling?

"Like, somehow, Vega's gone from Wang Du, but... um, does it feel like you're moaning?

I couldn't get away from the back of my brain to see how Julia's people died.

"... you're not done yet, are you?

"Yes, it"

Make it about Vega the Demon King, make it about South Fortress, or make it about being caught as a witch, Waltz felt somewhere tangled with the King's Capital.

"... aren't you overthinking it?

"Yeah... I hope you think too much..."

"Ma, can we stay in Wangdu for about today?

"Um... well, maybe a day."

He stopped thinking deeply that Waltz's face was not excellent, but he couldn't help but worry.
