Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

The next morning.

The makeshift hunter's mansion had the appearance of Waltz, who was coming for breakfast.

Well, for Waltz, breakfast didn't seem like the only purpose...

When Waltz and the residents of the house are eating around a table that's not that big... the hunter mouths it against Waltz, basically, like this.

"... was there yesterday."

"Yes... Noisy..."

"... what are you talking about? Both of us..."

It was too fractured an explanation... on the contrary, it seemed that Lucia had no idea what the two were talking about because she had not explained it at all.

"What... is this about Eve running away scared of haunts?

"Huh?! Oh, that may not be true! Maybe the hunter said it was a tactical retreat!

"Oh, yeah. So, you're coming back? Now it's time to get rid of the ghost, huh?

"Ngu!

And Eve starts roaring regrettably.

The way it looks, no matter how you look at it... it's a dog.

Well, aside from that...

This makeshift hunter's mansion was inhabited by hunters and Eve, as well as four people, Teresa and Lucia.

Parents (?) Similar height children (?) is giving himself away, in the form he said.

That seemed to be why Teresa and Eve were acting together, like a streak of days.

So... there was Theresa, of course, here.

"Later, Waltz? How is the construction of the new castle going?

And, as the saying goes, Teresa asks somewhere happily toward Waltz.

Then it was not Waltz... who reacted as quickly as possible to her words, but Eve, who was also being taken around by Teresa yesterday.

"... that? Dear Teresa, I thought you said yesterday that you might know the status of the construction because you're peeking at everyone from behind the grass. It's a noble hobby. You might have said that, right?

"No, you're not. If I interrupt everyone's work, I'll be rude. I'm just keeping an eye out for you in the distance! So, the concubine doesn't know the details!

and, swelling her cheeks, against Eve's remarks, Theresa mouths the words of clarification.

Then, this time, Waltz, who was listening to the conversation, opened his mouth.

"Uh, that's what happened... I thought I felt a nasty gaze..."

"Nha...!

I got word from Waltz about what look Teresa gave me... well, I don't have to go into detail, but I wonder if you can understand...

Apparently, she had no sense that she was turning a nasty glance.

Then... I open my mouth with Lucia smiling bitterly when I see Teresa with the look of the end of the world coming.

"You know, Teresa... You know what Teresa and the others were watching?

"... to?

"'Cause if you saw it every day... you'd still be watching it today, wouldn't you? Teresa, it looks like you've been hiding yourself, but the people who were taking the break, they're all looking for you. It makes me happy when I see it... I wonder if you said something targeted."

"... hey, what a..." disappointment.

That's what I'm saying... and Teresa holds her head with both hands so she'll regret it.

She reacted that way, not because she felt ashamed, thinking that someone might have seen the suspicious look she was having on her face...

Most of her gaze at the construction site was directed at Waltz... and hardly at the desperate working public.

But the public seemed to tell me, for the first time since Lucia told me, that on the contrary, my gaze had been directed against me... and I was ashamed of my actions.

As the head of the nation, how about...

In her head, such self-blame must be swirling.

And since Theresa has been silent...

Eve, who had a frightened look at her, twisted her neck and then asked her about Waltz.

"Maybe... did Master Waltz also know that Eve and the others were watching?

"... yeah. Well, even if it's far away, it looks good to some extent. For example, if Eve is about the grain of rice spilled on her chest right now, even if there's a letter on its surface, maybe she can read it?

"... aah"

And waltz that picks the rice grains that were overflowing with gravity control and carries them to Eve's mouth.

At that time, Eve didn't look embarrassed, but rather why she was eating happily...

Then, shifting his gaze from the chest of Eve's maid of honor clothes, which was becoming a little crunchy, Waltz, next to himself, spoke out against Lucia, who looked deliciously cheeky with hunter-made Inari sushi.

"... it's supposed to be done today, except for the interior, so good luck, huh? Lucia."

"Yeah!" Momogu

Yeah, but I said... because of the Inari sushi that was all over my mouth on the boulder, and more than that, Lucia, how I can't return the word.

Then the hunter, who was watching how it went, asks against Waltz, not that she replaces...

"Done today? Isn't that a little too soon? I don't even know what's going on inside because we're not directly in the crime scene... but as far as peeking from the top of that big tree, it didn't look like the kind of vibe we'll be finishing tomorrow, did it?

With that said, the hunter remembers what he saw yesterday from the top of the great tree, the site of the royal castle, which is now further ground.

There wasn't any architecture there, and it just seemed like a flat plot of land was spreading... but according to Waltz's story, 90% of the way, it didn't sound like the building was already finished, it shouldn't mean anything was wrong with her hearing.

Then when the hunter thinks... that the view of the royal castle site he saw himself was actually faux... etc., he speaks of Waltz being outrageous.

"Yep. I'll finish it in one day."

"... Huh?

"Hey..."

"Mm-hmm. The boulder is my husband!

"Yeah!" Momogu

"I think there are remnants of the workshop in the basement and the rock beds can be thin, so there are a lot of things that need to be done... the basic internal structure and appearance of the building is going to be completed by the end of the day. Otherwise, there's a problem... and if it stays like this, this country is not doomed..."

"... Huh?

"Yeah!" Momogu

"No, Miss Lucia... That's not where you snort..."

"... yeah," Momogu.

"... you don't know what the hell you're trying to say..."

Why, this country is going to perish...

To that word spoken suddenly from Waltz's mouth, three other people besides Lucia had their necks hanging like it was actually a joke or something... but it seemed like a very serious statement to Waltz himself,

"Uh, MaggiMouse runoff, right? Cortex outburst, right? A volcanic eruption, isn't it? Invasion from another country, right?... was there anything else going on?

and she concretely outlined the serious problems in the current situation.

"... hey, Master Waltz? Could most of that problem... be caused by Master Waltz?

"Yeah. You're not, are you? Not most, all of them.... but the Cortex thing... oh, it's me after all..."

"Oh well. I thought so - what?! What do you do?!

"... Eve? You don't hate those reactions, do you?

Waltz, who said so, was alarmed that the reaction of his non-Eve peers was too thin (?) Seems to have strengthened... but unfortunately for the Lucians, who have been exposed (and even more) to so many stimuli so far, it didn't seem a big surprise to hear that the country was going to perish.

In the first place, in fact, once, the country was doomed, so I guess they couldn't wipe it away any more now...

Whatever...

"So by the end of the day, I'm going to set up an alternative facility for the Royal Castle to (...) stand (...) and (...), and I'm going back to normal business around tomorrow!

He was used to the reaction of his long-time buddies fading away... and Waltz raised his voice as if to re-compartmentalize it, then mouthed the last grilled chicken he had left, and rose to his seat.

Thus, the construction work of the Royal Castle alternative facility should be welcomed (?), they welcomed the big pack...
