Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

7.5-13 Royal Castle Alternatives 13

By the time two suns set at the end of the horizon and the moon, far greater than either of them, just passes over your head...

A terrible beating from my men's soldiers (?) The hunter who received it came... in a flowing forest of quiet streams, like near his hometown of South Fortress.

It is her favorite place, often hunting early in the morning.

The hunter found his usual fixed position on the banks of such a creek and lowered his back there.

And he took the local liquor of the king's capital out of his bag and tried to carry it to his mouth with dried meat... that's when it happened.

"... Gu Gu"

Out of nowhere, a damp sound different from the spiral of the river... which, too, sounded like a sob.

Hearing that sound, the hunter...

(Ma, no way...) "Biku

Looks like he put his tail and beast ear hair upside down and accidentally set himself up.

Apparently, she has something so scary that she can't compare it to the giant spider that suddenly attacked her during the day...

Then she tried to rush the spot away so that when she put the liquor and knobs she had removed into the bag again without a sound... she could escape the chilly sensation felt in her spine.

But was it bad that when she turned around, she turned her gaze upstream of the river...

To her, you don't have to come into her eyes... rather, she seemed to see someone who didn't want her to come into her eyes...

"... Gu Gu"

"... hiccup?!

A hunter who manages to put up with the screams that almost leaked out of his mouth by keeping his hands down.

At the end of her gaze like that... there was a red bead that I had never seen, creepingly floating in the universe, drifting through the abyss of the river...

Stuff!

... and the hunter began to run through the woods at first sight.

If she turned around, she would actually be stuck behind, etc., thinking that she usually settled in calmly (?) The disturbed appearance is very different from the way it is, and I run desperately, without any trouble to erase the signs.

"(Damn! In my favorite place, I can't believe I came across a bucket of stuff!

And when she believed in Waltz's partner (Dagger), she thought, "Let's get rid of it."

"Eh...!

"... hmm?

Dosun!

The minute the hunter ran out of the grass to the beast path that seemed to be as tall as her chest, she seemed to have hit some kind of yellow mass.

"Ooh, auntie?!

A hunter raising his voice close to the cry he had endured so far against that object.

... but the person she bumped into wasn't a ghost, a haunted kind, etc... a cosplayer who looked like a maid... or Eve, who somehow was walking alone in the dark woods.

"Eh! Him, could it be awful?! Keep the lady in the head and no apologies or anything... If I hadn't been for my bragging beast ears, I would have crushed my head and fractured it..."

"... what. Eve..."

"What, maybe it's rude..." said the hunter?

With that said, Eve holding her shoulder down like a pain, not the head she was supposed to have hit.

Behaving so poorly, she continued to throw natural questions at the hunter.

"Here, what are you doing?

"Actually, I abused my men r... I saw a haunt..."

"Auntie..."

Eve seems to have... somehow solidified since she said that.

Are you thinking over and over again in your head about the words of a hunter that is difficult to understand, or if you don't want to understand them, your spirit refuses...

However, it was also about a short time... and Eve, who understood what the hunter was saying, began to utter words like hers that he hated to be treated like a child.

"Oh, well, maybe there's no such thing! Haunted or Dear Catalina..."

"... well, you don't like Catalina..."

and a hunter who accidentally smiles bitterly at Eve for the way he thinks of Catalina and ghosts in the same line.

Before, against Eve, the hunter who had seen Catalina shaking a painful (...) so (...) so (...) syringe seemed to somehow agree when he heard Eve speak.

Apparently at this point, from the hunter's mind, a ghost (?) Fear for seemed to have vanished.

Because of that, now the hunter asked, on the contrary, against Eve.

"By the way... why is Eve walking around here alone?

"Hmm... I'm not really alone, I might have come with Master Teresa, but if I'd seen it in glowing bugs along the way, I'd be detached... targeted?

"... right"

I couldn't get a precise answer to the question, but I heard Eve's words and figured out the whole thing, a hunter with a head.

Note that she had a headache because it was too typical for Eve to get lost, or because she had a migraine.

"... you two are here together?

"Yeah..."

"So... you mean Teresa's alone by now..."

"Maybe..."

... I mean, the hunter said that the president of the national parliament, who should also be called the head of state of Mid-Eden, was a dangerous demon and an inexperienced ghost (?) In the lurking woods, one person, may be lost, he thought.

For a hunter who was one of Theresa's people, a friend... and in a position to protect her, it was weirder not to have a headache.

"... do you know where they got ya?

"Um... here?

"... right"

Remembering Eve, who said she was in the woods alone, but had not shown any particular disturbance, the hunter decided that it had not been long since he deviated, pointing his sharp gaze, visible even in the darkness, into the woods, with his constantly sensitive ears and beast ears (buckwheat)... and trying to find Theresa from within the woods.

As a result...

"... was there. Over here."

The hunter is not difficult and seems to have found out where Teresa is.

"Really?"

"Ah. If Teresa had used magic to cover up the signs, maybe she wouldn't have figured it out, but even if he could transform, he wouldn't be deluded until the signs."

"Hmm... Next time you get a chance, you might want Eve to teach you how to do it."

"... a way to get rid of the signs?

"Um... all of it?

"I can't even tell you how to get rid of the signs... but something else... might be a little difficult"

With that said, the hunter took Eve's little hand that seemed to say 'mean...' with only his gaze against himself... and walked slowly through the woods, where the majority of it was ruled by darkness, even as the great moon was blindfolded from the gaps in the trees...

... and the destination they have reached is a slice of the forest.

The tip of the forest, which had been cut off, was downhill on the hill, from which it was not only the township of the king's capital, but also the fields, the great trees, and the new monoliths to it (?) was a place with a view.

Theresa in a place like that...

"... you're jealous..."

And as he spoke to himself, he turned his eyes to the monolith, which was flashing everywhere.

That monolith is not what the waltzes have been mining three days ago...

Because the boulders were too large to be placed near the Wang capital, the waltzes returned the giant monolith to the mining site (volcanic site) and cut it to a moderate size, placing some of it where the monolith had previously been.

There, work continued at night.

That too, in a much busier way, involving not only the work of refining by the waltzes, but also the people of the Wang capital...

In the hands of the people of such a king's capital is held the magic guide burner developed by Cortex... as mentioned earlier, it also seemed that it was cutting out the material, with a great deal of light to look directly at.

... It should be noted that Cortex also seemed to have developed a light-shielding plate, and the faces of those working seemed to be fitted with surfaces embedded with something like black sunglasses on wooden plates.

That material they cut out was, needless to say, used to build the royal castle.

And it was... indisputably Teresa here who ordered the construction work of the Imperial Castle, which had nothing to do with that day and night.

Now that the royal castle, which should also be the centre of the country, has disappeared, it has been a top priority not only for the waltzes, but also as a parliamentary side, to rush the construction of the royal castle.

... Nevertheless, that is not because the functioning of the government is suspended.

Now that Cortex continued to rule by distributing his work to the nobles and deputies based in the provinces, using a well-established wireless communications network, the functioning of the government was not halted.

But it could not last forever.

... what will happen to this Mid-Eden if we leave the unusually high spec chancellor's shadow men alone...

Neither on the parliamentary side nor on the waltz side seemed to be able to make the earliest predictions.

With that in mind (?), Teresa skipped the instruction... but she seemed to feel ridiculous about just skipping the instruction and not being able to participate.

As a result, we had no choice but to literally peek into the shadows of the grass roots into the appearance of everyone who was working.

"... ghhh" niyali

... but it's unclear if it's just fulfilling, really, keeping an eye on everyone...

Looking up at the sky... I mean, looking up at the waltz you're working on, against Teresa, who suddenly had a suspicious grin...

"... it could be disgusting..."

Eve in a maid hitting her current feelings straight as she turned her eyes.

Theresa then turned her attention to the disrespectful maid and, again, turned her gaze to the sky for eye care and all, began to talk.

"... Lost Eve, what are you saying? Don't put your ass on the noble hobby of a concubine!

"... no more, Master Teresa... maybe not..."

Eve groans, turning a frightened glance at Theresa, who cannot be saved.

It's just that then she, too, turned her eyes to the sky just like Teresa... and why on earth did she get a look that included the colour of thanksgiving...

After that, after a while...

Did the neck that was leaning towards the sky hurt, or when Eve lowered her gaze... something strange seemed to have entered her eyes.

... He said he found Teresa, but he's a hunter with no sign of ever approaching him.

"... what are you doing? Mr. Hunter."

Eve looks at her like that and asks as she tilts her aching neck.

Then the hunter... began to say this about what he saw.

"Yes, Eve... And Teresa... You guys don't see...?

"Hmm? Of course you can see it, right? How brave is Waltz? (Miss Lucia next door is out of the way...)"

"You may not know what the hunter is talking about, but you also see Eve's eyes properly, right?

But even with those two words, the hunter's convulsing expression remains unchanged...

On the contrary, she uttered such a word that no one would want to hear.

"... there's a haunt behind you..."

And... at last, the hunter pulls through the two daggers that were on his hips.

... Apparently behind Eve and Teresa, it wasn't a hunter's joke, it was really a ghost... something like that looming...
