Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

Waltz and the others walking north on the streets under clear skies.

The flowing clouds are far above, and the weather is not going to collapse for a while.

In such weather, the temperatures should be high and bright... but the air surrounding the waltzes wasn't so warm because of Yuki nearby.

Is it about a minus 5 degrees of ambient temperature?

"... Yuki?

Waltz opens his mouth against Yuki, who had an unreserved conversation with Lucia after leaving the Wang capital.

"You don't know if you can see manoeuvre armor... or if you can see what I really am?

"Huh? Oh, yes. Can you see it? What's the matter, suddenly?"

"Uh, I knew I was seeing..."

Apparently, Yuki doesn't have the effect of optical camouflage, just like the dragons.

"No, the day after the hologram was fixed... uh, the day after Lucia's baptism, we met in the chancellor's office, didn't we?

"Yeah, you did see him. It was when the king of the kingdom of Merclio was here, wasn't it?

"Yes, yes. When the Canopes were here. At that time, you reminded me that I wasn't surprised to see my face for the first time."

Until the other day, Waltz's hologram was broken.

Nonetheless, if you knew what a hologram looked like, would you mean God, an angel, or an Altair spinner?

... especially since I heard from Julia and Sylvia about meeting Yuki, Waltz thought it was unlimited.

"Well... for a moment I did think you were a stranger, but Master Waltz stood behind you, and I heard voices, so I knew right away that you were transforming"

"I knew you were..."

(I guess a lot of people don't do optical camouflage better than I thought...)

With that in mind, Waltz remembers that some of the Devil's acquaintances, like Yuki, had no optical camouflage effect.

"By the way, Master Waltz?

Now Yuki asks as she gently tilts (hides) her neck.

"I don't think so, but are you walking away like this?

"Well, I don't hate walking away either..."

"If you're going to walk by land, you have to figure out a way to get beyond the Great River along the way, right?

"The Great River? What? The Great River..."

When Waltz squeals such a question,

"Oh, maybe Master Waltz doesn't know? You mean the river that separates the human realm from the demonic realm?

Julia pinches her mouth.

Other places where Lucia and Sylvia are also listening with interest, neither of them may know more about The Great River.

"Yeah, I don't know. But if it's just a big river, why don't you just cross it normally? (He's also a vampire...)"

"No, there's no way for that to cross, so it's tough. Well, thanks to that, I can also say that humans and demons don't have to collide on a massive scale."

"Hmm... so, what river is it?

"... you have no idea, do you? So, what do you say, fun since you went... Master Yuki?"

"Right. That might be better. You'd be surprised, wouldn't you?

"... well, shall we look forward to it?

With that said, I think of a view I've never seen, and a waltz with a grin.

"So, normally walking to the Great River takes a while, and I have to look for 'river crossing' to cross, so I think it's pretty hard..."

And Yuki went back to the first question.

Normally, going on foot over 1000 km is reckless.

"... for once, I just want to ask, how did you get around?

"Well... sometimes you've been on foot, sometimes a carriage, sometimes... a demon..."

Yuki talks as she remembers the journey from Boreas to Mid-Eden.

"It was tough when crossing the Great River, among other things. I can't use magic, so I couldn't even freeze it..."

"Hmm... you have such a special space..."

"Special spaces... well, let's talk about that in detail when we get there"

"I'm curious... ma, fine. Well... can we do this around here?

Make sure people aren't around anymore, Waltz said.

"Well, we're flying away, right?

"Yes? Um... I understand that Master Julia and Sylvia can fly, but isn't it hard for two people on a boulder to take us flying?

Everyone but her smiles at Yuki's words like that.

"... Could Master Waltz and Lucia be able to fly?!

"Yep. Instead, in my case, I travel using gravity control, so unless there's some special reason, I hardly ever walk around..."

"Ha..."

Yuki of how he can't understand Waltz's words.

In fact, manoeuvre armor is constantly floating around a few mm on a certain cat type robot tension.

Otherwise, as soon as we entered the building, we would pull out the floor at our own weight.

"So everyone? We're flying, right?

"Yeah! So it's competition, huh? Sister Julia and Sister Sylvia!

To Lucia's words like that...

Buhoo!!

"Hey... wait a minute, Lucia... honey"

"Uh, tissue, tissue..."

With that said, Julia and Sylvia hold down their noses with handkerchiefs and make stuffing out of tissues.

"... why are you both getting nosebleeds?

"... because of the seasonal pattern, the dryness..."

"Yes. Actually, he's got a nosebleed predisposition."

"Sounds like something tough... take care of yourself, huh? Sisters?

'It's okay!

Julia and Sylvia replied at the same time.

"... both of us? Is it time for a farce?

"Ah, yes."

"... you don't deny it's a farce..."

Anyway, everyone, they're ready.

"Then I'll take Yuki.... Lucia? You can't fly too far, can you? You may be good, but it's not like Julia and I can follow you."

But Julia and Sylvia protest after taking such Waltz's advice.

"Dear Waltz... it is in the sky that our true value with wings is demonstrated, isn't it?

"Exactly. You still can't beat Lucia in the shallow sun after going up in the sky, can you?

Apparently, they're both motivated.

"Um, well, on the way. And we're going to fly fast later, so keep your strength warm, all right?

"Yeah, okay"

"Yes, sir."

"I'll take care of it!

And

"Well, let's go!

Dogowong!!

Best of all, Lucia went up to the sky as a shell.

"Ah, it's flying! Lucia!"

Dogowong!!

Sylvia flies off with the same momentum.

Seeing where her wings are bright white, she's temporarily angelized.

"... yeah, I just don't know how to catch up, so I'm going to follow Master Waltz and fly slowly,"

Julia said before the earthly cigarettes raised by the two of them, she lost her temper early with her dead eyes.

"Oh, yeah? Well, that's not something you can't do."

Speaking of which, Waltz grabs Yuki and Yulia with his manoeuvred armor arm.

"Hi-chan?!

"If you're flying slowly, you won't be able to catch up with them for long, will you?... and uhh!

Dgowow...!!

... Thus began the supersonic race, led by Lucia.
