Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

The speed of light is said to be about 300,000 kilometers per second in vacuum.

On the other hand, since the blinking time of the eye is said to be 120 milliseconds on average, will the light go approximately 36,000 kilometers while you are blinking?

Alternatively, if we were to convert it to a distance around the Earth... it would be roughly a revolution or so, including rounding and error.

By the way, nothing that goes at the speed of light is just visible light.

For example, X-rays and gamma rays are also a type of electromagnetic wave, so it goes without saying that they travel through space at the speed of light.

The place where the waltz stood is in the atmosphere, so it may be affected by air molecules and so on and slow down about 0.03%, but still it doesn't slow down enough to be taken away and said on purpose, so well, generally the speed of light, would be fine to say.

Well.

Why did you start the story?

... In short, various wavelengths and high energy electromagnetic waves were emitted towards one side per because of the chain reaction with nuclear fission, the current occurrence of a waltz in which the so-called nuclear explosion was transparent... to explain that.

For a direct hit on the waltz, there are shields by electromagnetic pulse shields and ultra-gravity fields, so the possibility of some damage to the surface of the manoeuvred armor burning could not be denied either, but still could not be a major problem.

The problem... are the four Lucians who were nearby.

Naturally, they are living people.

If you hit them with radiation from close range even for a moment, you can't avoid being bombarded... no, before that, if you think about the distance to the blast site, is it the level where you get too much radiation energy all over your body and evaporate in an instant?

It is also a shorter time than blinking.

... Well, to say that, the Loricons and Capellas, who would be somewhere in this labyrinth, were no exception... but we shall explain them later.

So.

The actions Waltz took before such high-energy electromagnetic waves hit the Lucians...

"Cancer!!

... Unlike light, it was a gravity-controlled force field that proceeded at the speed of light even in the medium, forcing it to seal up a nuclear explosion.

"Not enough energy!!

With that said, Waltz continues to exercise gravitational control with manoeuvre armor and has a fierce momentum on emergency food (beef jerky) with his holographic body.

"... what are you doing? Sister..."

... In an instant I wondered if it appeared in front of me, and Lucia asked with a strange look on her face against Waltz, who suddenly ran oddly.

"Hey, hey! I'm busy right now, so later! Phew!"

"(Uh... one sumo... isn't it?

From Lucia, however, it seemed that Waltz only seemed to cling to the beef jerky with one sumo.

It just seemed so desperate for it that Lucia decided, for now, to shelf what her sister was doing.

Nevertheless, even from Lucia's point of view, it didn't mean that Waltz simply seemed crazy.

For a black hemisphere that would not let any light through occurred abruptly from the ground, and behold, on top of that, the figure of the men had disappeared into it.

Of course, as stated, the figure of the men was a phantom, so they weren't taken in inside the black hole created by Waltz... but from the side, it wouldn't be hard to imagine that the waltz that boiled the business didn't seem to have erased every man from this world.

The truth is, for Lucia, it didn't matter, such as about the men.

With their appearance, they witnessed the most important things.

"Sister... earlier, Catalina, you were sucking in with me, weren't you? All I could see was my hands..."

"Sorry, Lucia! Right now, it's hard n... Huh?

... just before Waltz suppressed the nuclear explosion, not from her point of view, which was inside the space control magic, but from Lucia's point of view, which was outside, I could see Catalina accidentally appearing at the men trying to escape with the metastatic magic... and being sucked into the black sphere together.

Time goes back to the last moment Lucia saw the men, before the nuclear explosion...

"Are you here?

"... ah"

Loricon and Capella, who were observing Lucia's battle by projecting themselves remotely in space control magic while simultaneously raising the scenery of the place to the dome walls of the hemisphere, were feeling the proximity of the demon (waltz) to the nuclear weapons mines due to the distortion of the space in front of them.

By the way, where were they... the head of the labyrinth where the waltzes were originally destined.

If you are a person, you have a brain.

In fact, this room with them was the nucleus of the real labyrinth, the room with the waltzes, the room of faux prepared to set the trap.

Apparently, they could have expected the waltzes to stop in a room in the heart position and intended to exorcise the demons from the beginning.

I knew they were acting as if they were trying to help their citizens during the labyrinth noise that had been there, and they seemed to have used that pattern of behavior the other way around.

"Well, run away."

"..." bumps.

To Loricon's words, the capella begins to cast space control magic for long-distance travel.

Apparently, unlike Loricon's magic, Capella's spatial-control magic, which originally operated river crossings, allows him to move outside than the sphere of influence of a nuclear explosion.

... and that's when.

Zubo...

... unexpectedly the figure of the cappella disappears completely into the hole in the ground where the lower body was buried.

"... well, that's a novel way to get around..."

Lolicon worries about whether or not to jump into his suddenly disappearing capella figure in the dark hole where he was sucked in.

Apparently, he's claustrophobic...

But he, the person who planted the nukes in this labyrinth, had the certainty that he would undoubtedly be caught in a nuclear explosion if he remained troubled, so he decided never to jump into that hole.

... then,

Gassi...

From Capella's disappeared hole, a white arm appeared that wasn't his, and I thought I grabbed the edge of the hole...

Zuzazazazazazazazazazaza...

... as if soft sand had collapsed and the perimeter of the hole had begun to collapse.

Or, if you touch that white hand, everything around you will lose its shape and collapse... can you even express that?

"Ugh, ooh?!

To such a horror sight, I accidentally pulled myself away from the place, put up a gun...

Bread, bread, bread!!

Loricon fires without hesitation when his buddy says it's a disappeared hole.

At that time, the white arm had either been shot or turned into a red meat mass... but now he had no time to be distracted by such a thing.

... because nuclear weapons are supposed to explode soon.

But...

"... what!?

At the time of the nuclear explosion, Loricon, who was preparing for a mid-range transfer in distress... frowned upon the sight that came into his eyes, and so solidified that he forgot his magical chant.

Because...

"... damn it! You can't even do this!

Because something black had arisen in the nucleus of the false labyrinth that was rising on the walls around him, and he had swallowed every nuclear weapon.

The sight intuitively made him feel that the explosion of nuclear weapons would end in underdevelopment.

"... it's not a mine or anything revolving around, if I should have pressed the switch directly... anyway, you'd be resurrected in church even if you died..."

Too often I don't get what I want, Loricon whining those words with an accidental tongue.

... Nevertheless, the problem for him was that so far nothing had ended.

Zuzazazazazazazazazazaza...

The perimeter of the hole, where the cappella disappeared and instead white hands appeared, continued to sink heavily.

"... this labyrinth is over..."

Loricon muttered about it remembering that when the nucleus of the labyrinth was heavily damaged, the activity of the labyrinth itself would cease.

"Well, no. I got a lot of data on this one."

And he tried to escape from this place before he got caught up in the trouble that would appear from the other side of the hole by casting space control magic.

... but...

"... hmm?

Lolicon, who says that and repeats the magic chant of space control again.

Apparently, he failed to exercise his magic because of his poor slippery tongue, he thought.

But no matter how many times I repeat it...

"... can't you? Why?"

Until now, I couldn't use the space control magic that should have been done normally.

Then Lolicon creates something like a transparent console in front of him to see what it is, or drinks something like a nutritional drink, and then does another magical chant, but...

"Why?! I can't use magic at all..."

I said that and scratched my head.

Then at that time...

"... I stopped the magic flow and let it seal all the magic.... but why... This is how you're supposed to be here..."

I wondered if such a voice could be heard from the center of the hole, which was still falling, a long fox daughter dyed bright red everywhere, white coat that should have been... and Catalina gradually began to manifest herself.

Against her like that, Loricon...

"... damn it!

With such evil spitting, he looked as bright blue as he had never shown before, and retreated as if wandering.

... because her arm, which should have been blown with a gun, is back in place, and inside the cylinder held in that arm,

"Look. It's you and that friend. Of course, he's still alive, isn't he?

... because of the cappella's neck, which disappeared earlier, and Loricon's own.
