Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events
7.6-26 Battle at South Fortress 11
The micromachines that Waltz built in large quantities, as she thought, killed a large number of Magi Mouse who were around the city.
However, it was limited to the periphery of the city sprayed with micromachines, which did not exorcise everything.
Therefore, the expulsion of the rest of the Magi Mouse, which would have spread to the region to the south more than this South Fortress, was likely to be a long way off before the micromachines could get there.
… In order to make that report, Waltz had come to the Count, who headed the region's government.
Although the city was attacked by Magimouse (and Ground Dragon), the unique smell of the new building seemed to have entered as if nothing had happened at the newly built Count's mansion, either because Waltz had had a good time spraying the micromachines or because it was intact except around the main entrance.
In the guest room where it was, the four waltzes, who had once acted in pieces since they got down to this city, were gathered again.
Waltz, the hunter, Lucia, Eve... and finally, the witch with whom no one knows her name.
Waltz initially didn't intend to come with her, but when he was walking around town with a witch who seemed to talk to him nostalgic, he had no choice but to come with him because a knight he had seen before had brought the Earl's message that he wanted the witch to come with him.
They were all confused before some gracefully green tea-sweeping witch with white beast ears growing from the tip of her long brown hair and shaking her long lashes...
"(Who is this guy...? I've seen it somewhere...)"
"(Signature daughter of the Magic Bookstore... isn't she? I've never heard of having a daughter...) '
"(Inari Sushi Shop...... I knew I didn't do it......) '
"(Why does everyone keep quiet about the first person they meet...)"
Apparently, the two of them, except Eve, who is truly the first person to meet, and Lucia, who is not here in his heart, had memories about her with thinness.
Especially since I didn't seem to recall it.
Four people, except the witch, for separate reasons in each of them, holding their heads...
Gacha......
"Sorry I'm late"
Count who, as always, seems to have a low back;
"Ladies and gentlemen, we're out of time"
All two of the Countess came to the room.
Waltz therefore decides to push the witch thing to the corner of his thought for now and make a quick report.
"No, I apologize for making time for you while you're busy. One example of Magi Mouse was originally caused by us…"
Waltz then explained once again to the Counts that this case of Magimouse was our own cause if we followed it.
... research I started to save one girl.
Talk about dumping the monsters that you've created in the process.
That it has nearly destroyed South Fortress as a result.
And what's to come......
If this were the lord who owns a fortress in the East, West and North who knows nothing, Waltz would bury the truth into darkness for every lord in need of being informed of the inconvenient facts under the guise of an accident... but the lord of South Fortress, being the father of the hunter and not of a shallow relationship, seemed unable to make the case jealous.
Nevertheless, this is not the first explanation of the circumstances,
It was not until today that we were covering up the problem, but that we had been reporting and debating the report, the measures and the costs, via Cortex, from a stage a month earlier when Magimouse was known to have escaped the deserted island.
It would also be obvious from the fact that mercenaries were gathered from all over the world, and from the fact that state spending was being thrown at them to pay their wages.
It should be noted that the national parliament has not been informed of the real causes….
... Just because the problem seemed to work out didn't mean the waltzes would lose their responsibility.
If you are the lord of a troubled land, you should want to say even one of your bitter words.
If there is an excuse to save people, can we sacrifice the people in experiments?
... But behind that anticipation of Waltz, who was prepared for those words to fly, the Count never uttered it.
Instead, he said this with a soft look on his face......
"This city, which was previously in the process of being rebuilt with great pain, has also suffered new damage in this case, but since we have received the cost of measures apart from the previous minutes, there is no problem. Besides... in the end, in the battle with Magimouse, (...) to the (...) people (...) in town (...) because the injured did not show up, even though there were no deaths. Therefore, as our territory, we will not pursue this matter any further. Tell that to Master Cortex."
In other words, to some of the floating outside adventurers, even if a large number of the dead came out, there were no victims for the people of the city, so there was no problem.
The ground dragon suddenly appeared in the junction and few people should have been blown away, but for some reason, there seemed to be no dead in it.
It should be noted that the waltzes who came to the city after the ground dragon disappeared may not yet know about the arrival of the ground dragon and the destruction of the city's main entrance...
"Really...... It would be helpful if you could say that. I can't say enough that this will not happen in the future, so if you do anything in or near the Count's territory, we will discuss it in advance."
"I have trouble saying that there is something else...... but if you need help, I will consider it positively. Because thanks to Waltz-sama's research, there's a part of us that's helping."
Two people who say that and then bow their heads to each other.
In the meantime, Waltz, who caused the disturbance, and the lords of the damaged territories were reconciled by saying that the state would make up for the damage.
Well... if you think about the rapidly increasing tax revenues due to Mid-Eden's GDP at the same time... Though there were injuries to residents, the South Fortress side, where the only damage was damage to the front gate, may not really need to ask the state to make amends...
Then, that's it for dark stories, just to say, the subject changes.
The knight who cut it out was the Mother of the Hunter (Countess), a female knight dressed in silver armor whose hobby-inspired design was shining everywhere.
She, who should have retired, was also apparently driven out in this Magimouse exorcism.
Instead, I can't deny the possibility that he stood in battle and was in command...
"I would like to thank you very much for your cooperation in this case."
The witch who was suddenly turned to such words...... never seemed to think that they would be appreciated by a person who would have been persecuted before, even the Countess, and began to speak the words of humility as they waved in front of her, turning her face bright red.
"No! Not at all! All of our actions are based on Waltz's teachings. This saved life, from the beginning, is with Master Waltz!
Hear that word...
(Uh... with that said, you saved the women who were being persecuted as witches... a long time ago.... So, who is it?
And the very fact that I saved the witch reminded me of Waltz.
But no matter how much I thought about it, I didn't seem to recall any specific connection to her.
There is a reason for that... about which not only Waltz, but the witch herself, does not seem to realize.
Waltz therefore… appropriately decided to talk to each other and, out of that conversation, explore the witch's name and connection.
"Yeah, I wouldn't be humbled like that, would I? Even if I tell you something, whether or not you can actually act is the person's own choice (I don't know what I taught you, do I?
"If you can say that to Master Waltz...... we are happy......!/(adv, adv-to) (1) (uk) (uk) (uk) (uk) (uk) (uk) (uk) (uk) (uk) (uk) (uk) (uk) (uk) (uk) (uk) (uk) (uk) (uk
"... yes (why are you crying...)"
Waltz tries to remember if any of the witches in his memory had witches with drastic changes in joy and sorrow.
Then when she became aware of her own thought that if such a thick figure of character was known, she would never come close... then began to suspect that maybe she was a fake witch...
"... ah!
Suddenly, the hunter raised his voice as if he remembered something.
Look at that reaction...
…… What's the matter, sir?
"Is something wrong? Mr. Hunter?"
"Wouldn't it be silly if a lady suddenly raised her voice? Reese."
and witches, waltzes, and knights (hunter mothers) who say words to each of them.
Look at those three...
"Oops...... excuse me for this. I remember the old days..."
The hunter said so, then drank his tea to delude him and shut up.
... Note that, in her heart, this is what she thinks.
"(It was a dangerous place... I just remembered the witch's name, and I don't know what to say, because it would be rude to find out what I'd forgotten before. But... waltz is amazing. I'm sure, the moment I looked at her, I could immediately remember who she was. Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to deal with it in that normal way.... but why, is my tea-drinking hand shaking... Oh, well. That's because you said you're not used to the air in these places)"
A hunter who thinks so and then wonders if I should soften the air on this occasion for the waltz.
Shortly afterwards, the hunter, thinking that if it was for Waltz, he would not hate (say) any action, seemed to have decided to go out of his way to act.
If you are not familiar with the air on the spot, you can provide a topic to be familiar with….
In other words, it is a common topic offering that allows those on the spot to talk to each other at will.
As a result, the hunter opened his mouth to her, who had received words of gratitude from his wife on behalf of the witch, anticipating the time.
"No, and it's been a long time. Sure, the last time we saw each other was in the village of Alc..."
"Yes, then, thank you for plugging in the demons to me that I still can't be."
"You don't have to worry about that. It was like a routine."
Starting with such conversations, hunters and witches who bicker.
If this was not in the Count's mansion decorated with a modern atmosphere, but in a depressed forest, the atmosphere might have been more.
... but that air, which seemed calm at first sight, froze in an instant, contrary to the hunter's intentions.
That... was caused by one of her words.
"By the way, how is the old lady from the tool shop who lives next door still?
"... Huh? Next to my house, it's not a tool shop, it's Master Waltz's house, right?
"What... I live next to Waltz's house...? Could it be you... not Mr. Sasaki?
"... who?
And there was strange air standing in the field.
Apparently, the witch's memory that was in the hunter, after all, belonged to a different person...
