Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events
8.1-29 Travel north 29
In my dreams, Null, who was ravaged by Vixen, the Demon King, who said he was a long time ago, woke up next...
"Ugh... Ugh... no more mushrooms...... Huh?! [incomprehensible]
"Oh, Null, you're up, aren't you? Hunter, can I get you another meal?
"Aiyi"
It was on the side of the fellow travellers who were mouthing dinner as the big moon shined over their heads in the woods, surrounding the burning fire as usual and making a mockery.
"I... the hell..."
Null who seemed to know he was dreaming but didn't know when he slept before that and didn't understand the current situation.
You perceived her confusion like that, my sister Yuki explains the situation.
"Eh... maybe you remember thin bits, but Sister Null just went to North Fortress to buy salt..."
Yuki stuck in words there for some reason.
There seemed to be a problem with that specific to the Demon King.
Because when I explained what happened to Null as it was... I was supposed to go as far as the central square of the town of North Fortress, inhale poison gas and fall, be saved by Catalina, and to this day...
But the opponent, no matter what, is a demon king over the age of 500.
I should have gone to buy salt, but instead of using it that even toddlers seem to be able to do, falling within nothing and just being helped, it hurts Null's pride... Yuki thought, apparently.
As a result, she got stuck in words… but after a little thought, she decided to stop explaining what was there and weave the Invisible Jerry thing that had disappeared from her sister's back at some point, complementing the story appropriately.
"... In fact, in the onslaught of Invisible Jeremy Mo (...) de (...) ki (...), who manifested his nature, he was seriously wounded dying. Still, Sister Null never gave up... fighting the Invisible Jerry on her back and winning. But unfortunately, I did my best there, and Catalina saved me."
"Oh, you did..."
"Yes, that was a terrible fight...... With the mighty magic of Invisible Jerry Modki, all the townships were destroyed and the surrounding forests burned down. The mountains blow up, the rivers dry up, the people zombie..."
"... Huh?
"No, you were really there, weren't you? Zombies. But in the end, I came back without doing anything..."
Say, yeah, roaring Yuki.
Meanwhile, Null, who had been dating her for 250 years like that, somehow found out that her sister's story was more than half, legged, and with a strange look on her face, she mouthed the natural question.
".................. So, how far are you making this up?
"Er... first and last with (...) outside (...) all"
"... Huh?
"Excuse me. I was on track..."
…………
I thought the last zombie place was the most lying null, but the truth is that the story in the middle where I was supposed to have worked was a sneaky lie, which seemed to shut me up by accident.
No, rather, I'm surprised that the zombie story was true, should I say.
When the two of them are having such a barren exchange, into their conversation comes Waltz with Ni (...) K (...) skewers in his hands and Catalina, who was rarely seen at dinner.
"See, Yuki? If you're lying weird, you're gonna be in trouble later, okay?
"You have no choice. Let me explain instead."
"Er... Er... I'm so sorry..."
And Yuki apologizes for waltz and catalina who came, shunned with regret.
To her appearance like that, Catalina turned a bitter smile...... and began to explain what had happened from her point of view.
"... when I rushed, Master Null was unconscious by inhaling sulfur compound-based gas. At that time, somehow the mushroom growing out of my back was eroding and I was dying... so I treated Null and Cheval ate the mushroom and treated him. It was dangerous, wasn't it? Almost had tentacles on Null's back."
".................." Hello.
""... Huh?
"Hmm, I see."
A conversation between four (+1) people going chaotic, either because Catalina's explanation was unexpected.
Leaving them alone, their explanations will never come close to the core, and all of that is likely to go in the direction of the day after tomorrow......
Then Yuki doesn't tint, explains correctly, and manages to restore the air on the spot to normal...
"Still, really, zombies... it's a hassle..."
Because of his previous experience of being involved in zombie-related troubles, Waltz muttered those words with a sincerely disgusting look on his face.
Catalina seemed to agree with that, and the way she remembered something, she seemed to haunt the dos black aura again.
Seeing that look made you feel unhappy, Yuki seems to have decided to change the subject just a little.
"Uh... what are we going to do about North Fortress? About the zombies, about the restoration of the town... For once, it's the North, isn't it?
In contrast, Waltz replies that the only person on the spot was in a position to answer.
However,
"Right...... You had that problem too..."
You hadn't thought about it, she seemed to have turned away softly from Yuki, who had been asking.
At the end of her gaze like that, not long after eating dinner, the knights,
Tonton, Cancún, Gico Gico......
and the carriage today (?) had made improvements to the
Again, they may be more suited to sex doing craftsmanship than doing knighthood......
Then the waltz who saw them,
"... ah!
And raise your voice unexpectedly.
Apparently, she came up with something.
"You know, leaving the knights in the protection of the North Fortress, what do you think? That way we can move faster..."
Whereas
"Is that what you mean...... Is that a good idea?
"I feel like quite a coincidence... if Mr. Waltz is going to say so, isn't there a particular problem?
"... What if Master Waltz was expecting this...?
and Yuki, Catalina, and Null, who return a reaction to each.
Given the deaths of thousands of townspeople, there was no denying the possibility that it was too spot proposition, but as for the zombies who naturally occurred by leaving the townspeople's bodies for about a week, so far, it's less case-friendly, and besides, leaving the knights behind was not in itself wrong as a response.
"Well, shall we go then?"
Looks like Waltz decided to adopt the proposal.
