Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events
After 6 After -17 Labyrinth 1
Tun-chun...
Throughout the town of Vixen, where the urban boundaries are stretched, there are little birds that shouldn't normally be... demons.
In this world, where the boundaries between demons and ordinary animals are vague, they are merely harmless little birds where magic can be used, but some people, with them all over town, sometimes seem to be a big problem...
"... Ha?! This, little bird?!
Yuki B jumps up unexpectedly on the bed where she was sleeping to the sound of a tiny demon far smaller than herself.
For her, Mayor of Vixen, it seemed a stunning thing to jump on, as the presence of creatures in the town other than demons registered as pets, livestock, etc., meant the disappearance of the urban junction.
But soon...
"... ah... it was..."
Crushing those words, Yuki B made sure she was sucked into the pillow and sank into bed again.
Apparently, she remembered yesterday when she was in a meeting at the Royal Castle, when the roof of the church (Urban Boundary Core), which was visible through the window, suddenly blew away with sparks scattered.
"... good night"
And again, Yuki B tries to travel towards the world of dreams.
... but...
"... Ha?!
It's like Extreme Abs Exercise (?) and again, she jumped up.
The warm temperatures in the room that envelop itself, the dazzling sunlight overflowing from the gaps in the curtains, and the drowsiness and tiredness that were neatly gone...
... There is only one reality that this situation points to.
"Did you oversleep?!
Would that mean...
"Wow?!!?
And when she got up trying to jump from her bet, she began to do what she always did in the morning, turning early and in parallel.
Yuki B., who makes such preparations in a very familiar way.
As a matter of fact, among the Yuki sisters, she couldn't say she was very strong in the morning, and occasionally, she slept like this one.
By the way, Yuki C, a military man, lived his life on a schedule that was like a precision machine, so even though homunculus was made from the same person at the same time, it doesn't seem like all his sisters have the same rhythm of life.
... If you think in that sense, maybe you can say that Yuki A lives like a packed of bad things about the sisters...
... well, aside from that.
In a few minutes...
"Wallets, rings, glasses... Yikes! I can go! Even if I can't go, I'm going!
She was in front of a door that leads outside, making a final check on her possessions.
Apparently, he's in good hands.
"Oh, forget the clock... ugh?!
Just before she left, she remembered her forgotten things... and seemed surprised by something, but anyway, she put her hand on the door and jumped out momentum.
"Late, late, k... Huh?
... and she stops there.
Because there's...
"... that? Are you still dreaming..."
... because leaving only her own room and her home was more than half gone...
With the exception of Yuki A (Emperor) and Nuru (Maid), all Yuki had houses in the city.
For those of them who are usually confused by Shirai while disguising themselves using demonic props, it can be said to be very natural.
But now all I could say about Yuki B being put to sleep in a house that was about to break was that it was unnatural, no matter what I thought.
Normally, she should have been put to sleep in a castle dormitory as a government executive... or in a place like the infirmary if she thought of the damage she had done.
So why, Yuki B, was put to sleep in a semi-destructed home...
'Maybe a daily sleeper just fired the mayor...' she said with her head in front of her home doorway (on the site)... still a few, but from the streets of the city where people go and go, a face she saw.
... is my sister Yuki C, who is a soldier.
"Dry (Yuki C).... you were safe, right?
"Yes, my sister (Yuki B) seemed safe too, most importantly"
And, interact, sisters who look exactly the same.
"... maybe you, too, woke up with your eyes at home?
"Yes. Actually, I wanted to talk to you about it, and I've come this far"
To the words of Yuki C (Minister of Military Affairs), Yuki B (Mayor)...
"... each other, you're fired..."
Now he has spoken of the worst that can be expected.
But...
"No. That's not what I meant, sister."
That's what I said, Yuki C shaking her neck to the side.
"... Huh? So... again, blame me for sleeping..."
"Sister. As usual, you're negative... But things could be more negative."
"... ha..."
And Yuki B began to sigh and wrap up the dark aura before he heard the details.
"Actually..."
Then Yuki C started talking about their actions while they were unconscious, heard from the Nulls earlier this morning.
... the fact that while unconscious, we were attacking our citizens.
At the same time, she also explained that instead of explaining why Yuki B had been put to sleep at home, it might be a bad idea for the castle soldiers to see him now before his transformation.
It wasn't a direct explanation, but Yuki B seemed convinced why she was here.
"... Really?"
"Unfortunately..."
Yuki B lays her eyes down after hearing the backdrop of the whole thing.
And Yuki C, the person she spoke to, also closed her eyes with a frown.
"The lack of memory... that's scary..."
Yuki B shrugged with her hands between her eyebrows, trying to hold her head down as if she were hurting from a hangover.
Seeing that figure on the board, she probably has, like, that experience...
"... sister. It's not like alcohol, is it?
"... I know. We have a victim."
"Yes, you're right, sister.... then, sister."
Did you finish telling him what you wanted to say, Yuki C, like a machine, opened his mouth as he stepped back.
"I have to go and tell the same story to the other sisters, so please excuse me here"
In those unmatched words of the army...
"I mean... you didn't mean that I slept to the end among the sisters?!
... Yuki B whose expression only brightens a little.
However,
"No. My sisters should already be in command in the disaster area. My sister was quick, and I thought we should climb the castle... Bye."
The reality didn't seem so gentle...
After leaving such words, Yuki C, in a token, left Yuki B's former place.
"... is that right..."
Then Yuki B turns his distant gaze toward the royal castle.
"Do you want to go..."
And she headed to the semi-destructed castle, looking like a salaried man who dawned on work all day and became a yore...
Her house was built in a position that could not be said to be close or far from the castle.
To be specific... it is a 30-minute walk to the castle, etc.
When I convert it to an urban station, is it roughly 2 stops?
She walked that distance almost every day.
She could also use a carriage to climb the castle, but there was also her only hope of seeing the lives of the citizens up close, walking between the house and the castle.
... or would there have been reasons why you didn't want the carriage owner to know who you really were?
... and now.
She walks the same path as always with Tobotobo...
"Oh, my leg hurts..."
I regretted putting my home away from the castle...
That's because, needless to say, I'm tired of walking... but the problem was with that tiresome reason.
"To the royal castle... ha, ha... so many mountain slopes... I can't believe it was made..."
... yes.
The journey from House Yuki B (Ke) to the Royal Castle was turned into a dangerous path that even climbers were likely to turn bright blue, not at the level of saying that a light hike was needed to avoid obstacles... etc., because of the presence of proti vixens from the city's basement.
"Hih, hi, by noon, will you be able to reach the castle..."
Yuki B says that while sticking to a slope of about 45 degrees.
What the hell is in her, trying to get her that far to the castle...
"Phew..."
Even though she said it had become yore yore, additionally dust, mud and other adherence made her look even more miserable... yet she didn't give up and climbed the cliff silently.
And to attack for 3 hours...
"... aha...! I climbed out...! You just climbed out!
He managed to climb through the big holes that had been drilled so as to divide the city.
"Ha, the royal castle looks so close..."
Yuki B., who recalls the hard work so far and is impressed.
"Well..."
After she said that... it hardened.
Now, what is the continuation of the words?
Now that she's worn out, she doesn't have the option to go home...
Because I've come this far, not because it was meant to come to the castle, but because it was supposed to be the purpose of me to work as mayor at the castle.
... But Yuki B seemed worried about whether to seriously go home or not.
In a few more minutes, it can be argued that the proof is that you could reach the castle, which is your destination, just by walking a flat path, but didn't move with your legs stopped there.
If there's anything else that can stop her from coming so desperately... it's probably either something very shocking to her, something amazing to stop at, or a problem that makes her want to escape right now... or not.
... or there would be no denying that all of that could have happened at the same time.
For example...
"... Meh, the labyrinth!?
... the situation behind the castle, which is a destination, where at some point a huge labyrinth is approaching and it's still about to fall this way... could be raised as an example of this?
... Well, whether that's a metaphor or not, it's another story...
