Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

In a dim royal hallway, a shadow for two was shaped by a purple flame rising from a magical candlestick erected on the wall.

Moreover, from the shadow of it, somehow he could not hear any walking sounds, and the surrounding atmosphere combined, emitting different signs...

... Well, Waltz and Julia, they had their own circumstances, and they were just floating a little off the ground.

"... so, after all, you're coming here"

Upon arriving in front of a certain large door, Waltz muttered somewhere convincingly.

Yes, Waltz and Julia came to the front of the room where Yuki and the others had a dinner party the first night they came to the city.

But against such waltz, Julia points out a little frightened.

"Um... Master Waltz? Master Sirius' room isn't here, it's next door, right?

Sacubus (Julia) points to a small door a little further away from the door in front of you, floating in the universe to avoid being breathed alive by the labyrinth.

"Huh?... that's not a door that shows signs that there's going to be a demon king... Either that or just a storage..."

"Um... Master Waltz?... I thought it would be rude to speak even if you thought..."

Nevertheless, apparently, even as Julia, she agreed.

"I thought about security when the braves broke in, for camouflage or something, right? I'm sure."

Especially before I try the last big one, I can't deny the possibility of strolling around the room without neighborhood...

As for why I would do that... well, I wouldn't even have to bother explaining it.

"I don't know... if that brave guy doesn't even seem to be able to come to Boreas in the first place, so I don't think he has to think much about crime prevention..."

"At the earliest, you treat me like I'm not coming in the first place, not even because a strong guy attacks me, or because a burglar comes in..."

Against Julia, who makes a romantic statement, Waltz sighed and then moved forward in front of the small door, trying to pull the door slowly.

But...

Chatter...

"Is that it? Won't it open?

"Huh? Don't you pull, don't you push?

"No, I tried to push it right, didn't I? Finally, I also tried that I might not be able to slide horizontally or vertically or diagonally..."

The way to open a hidden door that seems to be some ninja mansion is waltz the way you tried it all out.

However, no matter how it was opened, there was no indication that the door of the room would open.

"It doesn't look like it's locked, and... should I break it now? Actually, it's probably just getting poorly set up and..."

"What..."

Bam!

Without hearing Julia's response, Waltz was forced to pull the door and destroy it without incident.

But...

"... the wall."

"Is that it?"

When I opened the door... it was a wall there.

"That's the labyrinth. Exactly like a maze..."

"That's not if you're joking!... Dear Sirius... Where the hell are you going..."

Apparently, this labyrinth (do it) is no longer the third royal castle of Deftery Vixen known to Julia.

For this minute, wouldn't her directions make sense either?

"... could it be that it's completely labyrinthine...?

Waltz gives a strange look at the situation the wall in front of him tells.

If she expected it, it would mean that not only the structure of the castle, but also the city itself, which would be included in this space, did not retain the prototype.

In that case, finding Yuki and the citizens becomes synonymous exactly with finding treasures in the labyrinth, making rescue very difficult, but...

(... no, you're still early to give up...)

Waltz shook his head and threw out the evil notion of 'it's too late' floating behind his brain.

Perhaps outside, Lucia and the others are still acting to minimize the damage.

So it shouldn't be too late to give up after we find evidence that those in captivity have already been swallowed up, or are desperate.

Besides, for now, we have been able to come as we walked before.

Therefore, even if the details had changed, the structure of the basic space itself has not changed so dramatically?

Waltz interpreted the status quo as such and decided to continue his search for people as it stood.

"... no other entrance?

Waltz asks Julia as she puts her hand on the wall and makes sure there is no space on the other side of it.

"And then... if you go in through the big door over there and pass some of the rooms that are inside, you can go to the same room once and for all..."

"... if that doesn't work, we'll have to pull out the wall and move on..."

Although there was no emergency food, Waltz was able to spare his strength when he arrived here and thought it would be difficult to regret the consequences.

Then, to her words like that, Julia frowned and said:

"Um... Master Waltz?... maybe, that, I don't think I can.

"... the one that forbids wall pulling?

"Right... In general, it is said that in the labyrinth, digging holes and creating new passages that have never existed before will somehow drastically change the structure of the passages around them. So the moment I pulled out the wall, as Master Waltz said, I was wondering if the surrounding passage would literally become like a maze... If that happens, perhaps Sirius' room too..."

... before the Waltz and the others get there, they'll change places, and that possibility won't be denied.

"Trouble... well, fine. Then let's attack with a positive attack."

"Attack... Oh, yes. Okay."

In Waltz's words, it was Julia with a look of doubt only for a moment, but now we seem to have realized that our situation is undisputed and in the same condition as a labyrinth attack.

"... well. Okay, I'll open it, okay?

Waltz, who had returned to the large door again, put his hand on the door and did not get lost, pulling forward as before.

After all, it looks like the corridor is deformed, making the door poorly erected... "

With that said, Waltz pulls the door forcefully.

Then,

Giggy, giggy...

Making that noise, the door slowly began to open.

"Yes, here it is. Here it is. After all, there's this sound in Demon King's Castle... no, it's nothing."

Waltz mumbled his extra mouth as he saw Julia trying to peek in worried about what was happening on the other side of the door.

Giggy, giggy...

And where the door opened wide, the sight that has been visible to the two eyes...

I had enough shock to silence the two of them.

... if true, the door that should lead to the room that is the meeting room and dining room.

But when you open it, there's...

"... the city?

It was from the dark night sky that the rain dripped quietly, the township of Deftery Vixen spreading.
