Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

Dogogogogogogogogogogo... gon!

"Phew... Done"

"... you really didn't show up, you didn't..."

Lucia in the way she had nothing to do because Waltz was gravity-controlled and just a task of stacking up materials even.

If she needed to create simple screws, piles, etc., she might have had some work to do... but nothing, the Royal Castle alternative, originally the new workshop, assembled without screws, seemed to require Lucia's power this time.

"There was no glitch. But there's still a lot of work to be done because the outside is just a cavity inside, right?

"Um... right. I have to make my own room or something."

Lucia, who was floating beside her sister, said so with her mouth... her eyes turned to the huge black tower, where the two suns on her head stood exactly where she was about to hide now.

They built it (?) Such a new royal castle alternative had very different roles up and down.

The only part of the wallless frame that forms the base of the lower part, a hexagonal shape about 200 m on one side and 50 m on the other, is an alternative to the previous royal castle... the part of the hexagonal column-like part that is about two sides smaller in length and about 350 m tall than the base on it is the new workshop of the waltzes.

Above that workshop are six crown-shaped projections on the head of the Statue of Liberty... apparently, that's where the energy comes from.

Well, if you think about its shape, since only energy seems too numerous to dock... maybe Waltz also considered the departure of the Endelusian airship...

Such a facility, as previously mentioned, had been built without screws or piles.

Typically, in addition to the method of using screws and the like, there are other means of welding, fitting, etc., but the method chosen by Waltz this time seems to have been a method using springs rather than adhesives.

Apparently this is also the result of considering the thermal expansion of the metal.

Note that the spring used is not the only spring of the so-called spring type.

It also seemed to use a simple spring, called a plate spring or torsion bar spring, which, at first glance, was shaped in such a way that it might be mistaken for the material itself, using the restorative power that the metal material itself had.

Sometimes the latter two were easier to make because of their simple shape, and the latter two seemed to be more of the type adopted by Waltz.

Sometimes I don't use screws like that... even if I'm as weak a girl as Eve, there's no compartment where I can just pull parts to collapse...

Nevertheless, it would go without saying that various types of spring are sometimes used in the right materials, and not at all freaking out about the extent of the earthquake.

... well, aside from that.

Lucia sees what it looks like and speaks her thoughts.

"... Is it the Imperial Castle?

"... after all, you think so?

"At least I wish it was a different color, not the original blackish color of the material... For example, the glowing yellow of Inari sushi."

"... novel."

If you could have infinitely brought Lucia a paint of your favorite color... perhaps not only a new facility, but all the things in the world, yellow or... or golden, waltz with a bitter smile.

"Well, when it comes to the look outside, let's leave it to someone with a painting mind? When I paint the colors... maybe they'll turn bright white..."

"What... uh, yeah... (I don't know if that's okay...)"

"Besides, we have to do it. How about that?... right. This is the time, why don't we leave it to the people of Wang Du?

"... okay? Something's going to be amazing, but..."

"Wouldn't that be nice? This facility is supposed to belong to people in this country, and we're letting them use it on their own."

"If your sister says that's okay... can I, too?

And in the end, Lucia, the way she decided to leave it to her sister's thoughts without saying what concerns she had herself.

In her head, she seemed to think of the appearance of a facility that would get even worse... but it is unclear at the moment whether it would ever, ever really do so.

"Well... well, we'll make the inside, too, right?

"Yeah!"

And the waltzes moving inside the new workshop.

From then on, of course, their work will continue... to the boulder, until the restoration of the equipment in the lost workshop, it didn't seem so easy...

Meanwhile, back then...

"Uhhhh!!

All the royal castle officials and citizens who watched the condition on the outside of the moat were pleased.

A huge new facility that will come together at a squeaky rate...

Everyone seemed happy to see it.

There was just one person in there with a less happy look on his face.

... is a full-time knight in the chair, and Atlas, field director.

He was turning a difficult gaze at the base part of the Royal Castle, which was to be built on a steep pitch, toward the noisy officials, roughly... putting in a drink.

"Hey, you guys! Not if you're happy!

Then I reacted to it... the face of the Knights of those led by hunters.

"What are you talking about, Mr. Atlas! We're getting a new castle in front of us, aren't we? It's not that easy to be happy!

"That's right, Mr. Atlas. Isn't Mr. Atlas just as serious as the captain?

"Also, Cortex, are you being sarcastic?

and the knights, who talk orally and happily.

Against them like that, Atlas... asked for a word.

"... okay. Then let's just ask one thing.... you guys? Do you think your sisters can assemble that building more than that?

Then...

"..." pita.

And, stop ringing, the hustle and bustle of soldiers and royal castle staff.

Instead, the air solidified, should I say...

Then it's a little while, and the soldiers start talking again.

"... duh, why are you saying that?

"No, no way..."

"With that being said... there seems to be an uninterrupted amount of material in the material storage area..."

and soldiers whining about things that have come to mind, like, I don't want to admit it.

Atlas, the person who inquired, then said this with an eye to the lower facility, where the floor coverings, although installed, were not built at all.

"Well, that's it. We can make the rest."

At that moment,

"..." Shh.

and once again quiet back together.

Some of them seemed shocked enough to collapse on the spot... but there was a reason for that.

... use enchanted super strong special steel by Lucia for construction materials...

How user-friendly is that light, rust-free, tough or strong special alloy that was placed in the material storage area to the average person? Those who were on the spot knew so much about the difficulty of cutting the material from the monolith, a mass of special steel, by themselves.

Special materials that can barely be sharpened, whether using magic or tools...

How much effort will it take to drill holes to secure screws, piles, etc...

With that in mind, everyone seemed to have a desperate look.

But Atlas didn't seem as desperate as everyone else because he knew the difficulty, but he also knew it wasn't impossible.

"Nah. It's okay! If we all join forces..."

... but that's it, Atlas, that's going to solidify.

Because against Atlas... you seem to count on him (?) Because the gaze of the staring people was concentrated simultaneously...

"... what, you guys?

"The boulder is the chancellor's full-time knight! I'm counting on you!

"Speaking of which, Master Atlas was there! I've lost my mind."

"With Master Atlas, it's 100 manpower... no, it's a million manpower!

and the way he's trying to throw a lot of things at Atlas...

Apparently, Atlas, not only from the waltzes, but also from soldiers and royal castle clerks, is being made r... dependable.

Knowing or not about that... Atlas thought a little, then smiled with nymphomania, then opened his mouth.

"... there's no choice. It's them, huh? All right! Leave it to me!

"Boulder, Master Atlas!

And they all laughed happily and then went to work.

Look at how those men are... Atlas thinks this inside out.

"(... Huh. Drilling is not a big problem. You can also use a laser for cutting... The biggest problem... is transporting the materials to their destination and installing them. They don't know that...)"

And don't let anyone understand you, Atlas with a suspicious grin.

... that was the time.

"... that? Mr. Atlas, you don't have a drill, do you?

"Looks like there's no laser cutter either..."

and voices are raised from the Royal Castle staff directly under Teresa from the tool storage area, which was co-located with the material storage area.

Apparently, some people knew the drill and laser cutter existed and were thinking of using it before Atlas...

"... what?

It was when Atlas was, in many ways, Pokhan.

From behind him, his voice flies.

"Oh, excuse me. The tool, the battery was dead, so I turned it into a magic prop ingredient ~. If you can't use the nuclear fusion reactor in the workshop, you can't even charge it ~. It's iron scrap, iron scrap ~"

... is Cortex.

"Eh..."

"Don't worry, everyone, without such a dark face ~. This time, for all of you, we have developed a new product that works with magic ~" Don!

"Ooh..."

"Now, let's get Atlas to do a fruit (...) exam ~"

"Why, experiment..."

"Isn't that natural ~? If you explode while you're using it, it's important."

"Wait a minute! I don't care what happens to me!

"It's not what a man would say ~? Come on, take this, please, it's cutting!

He only had a bad feeling about Atlas... but as usual, he decided to take the exorcism hand drill Cortex gave him and try to drill a hole into the proper end material.

"... the moment you press the button, it doesn't explode all of a sudden, does it?

"... maybe ~"

"What is it? In the meantime... I don't want to push the button..."

But Atlas, accustomed to rough things, didn't do anything like throw away the received demon guide hand drill, lifting the tip of the drill up on the end material... and pushing the button all at once.

Chewin-win!!

"Ooh... Not surprisingly bad."

"Isn't that why I told you ~. It's a new product."

"Oops... I said if it was going to explode earlier t..."

"Shirap! Don't slap me in the mouth for nothing, just get on with the work!

"... well, okay..."

And Atlas will drill high-precision holes in the sheet material according to predetermined standards.

Chewin-win!!

Chewin-win!!

Chewin-win!!

"Oh... wow... At all, you're not losing your output. I don't know what principle you're working on, but... this looks like it could work!

Then again, Atlas drills like crazy.

Seeing him like that, all his men... seemed to regret it.

What the hell did you regret... from words like these in Cortex, can you guess?

"Ahhh. Looks like it was a failure after all. Looks like you're still fuel-efficient and taking the magic of the surgeon on your own ~"

and Cortex looking at the unfortunate gaze toward Atlas as he looks at it, losing weight to the gallows.

Apparently, Atlas had a very low sensitivity to magic because it was made as a homunculus where magic could not be used, even though it was based on the brave man's somatic cells, and he hasn't noticed his own magic, which is diminishing at will.

From then on, Atlas even puts a hole in it until it looks like a dry object... but it goes without saying that all the men who received the processed material from him were working with a uniformly nasty look on their face...
