Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

Then the waltzes went on a carriage, all the way to North Fortress.

In the meantime, the knights' carriage increases completeness...... at last there are 30 two-story cabins (?) It seems to have been completed.

While they were on the move, they seemed to have some leisure time.

And whether the moon and the sun pass overhead about three times and still set on the other side of the western trees today, etc...

"You've finally arrived..."

The line reached North Fortress, a town surrounded by hidden stone walls among the trees.

Though now, there was only like a wreck on the wall, which seemed to turn into a completely abandoned look.

Then quickly,

"... the Alpha team will enter a more powerful reconnaissance mission than this"

Bravo team, start the operation.

"The Charlie squad backs up the Bravo squad"

and the knights, whose chain of command and actions have been strangely modernized, rush inside the town of North Fortress under the command of Atlas, in a fully equipped state with a gas mask.

All this time on the boulder, I'm not kidding, it's like I'm seriously going in.

Waltz sent a voice to Julia, who would be in King's Capital by now when she activated the radio communication system, watching from behind.

"Julia? We're here, right? What do we do, show them the way? Looks like there's nobody in town... '

Then without letting your hair in for a while,

'What... I knew you'd pick me up n... no, it's nothing'

and a reply from Julia returning.

To deduce from the speed of that response, perhaps she was, constantly, gripping the radio and waiting to hear from Waltz now or now.

Then Julia asked Waltz, in a strange way.

'... Again, is North Fortress... no?

"Now that the knights are on their way to investigate, I wonder if they'll find out more in a while? But from what Catalina and Yuki have told me... you won't be able to expect very good stories... '

'... okay. This time, I'm waiting for a report in Wang Du. You'll also need to reorganize your army...'

'Right. Please.... oh yeah. Will you tell Cortex about this? Hopefully, don't let that girl go into weird behavior, feel like directing'

'Eh... hey... that's... I can't...'

and it was when Julia returned a wolfish reaction.

"Sister ~? I hear you right ~?

Somehow, an unusually clear Cortex voice came on a radio wave.

'... this communication, it's encrypted?

"Uh-huh? What are you saying ~? It's in broadcast mode and it sounds like everyone ~?

'... Huh? Is that it? (I was missetting...?

'Well, I don't care about details like that. So, how was it ~? Inside the North Fortress is ~?

'... I haven't seen it yet (is that it? I knew I was encrypting it... right? That's crazy......)'

And, even if you check your communication system, because it was encrypted, a waltz that tilts your neck.

Note that the cause may be that Cortex was deliberately unencrypting the communication and resending it….

It must be a whispering rebellion against only one person being told to leave a message......

Nevertheless, Waltz, who just had something to say to Cortex after a conversation about something that was not particularly important, seems to have decided to keep her informed of the requirements.

"So. 'Cause I decided to leave the knights in this town.'

At that moment,

"" "... What?!

and react simultaneously with the surrounding knights.

Look at them like that...

"... ah. You were in broadcast mode..."

Waltz finally seemed to realize that his own voice had reached all the radios that were being paid to the soldiers there.

Cortex, on the other hand, doesn't have to regret waltz like that.

Preliminary contact from the Atlas and a word from their sister, apparently, gave them an idea of the general situation.

'Oh, is that so? Then you don't have to send soldiers in a hurry ~'

That's all I said, I disconnected the wireless communication.

In a nutshell, what about winning and running away with operational success?

As a result, Waltz seems to have had to explain the situation to the knights.

Sometimes it was not yet a formal decision on this matter and no circular by Atlas had been given, so his men (?) It had not yet been communicated to the knights.

"Uh..."

A waltz of how the words bothered me, returning an almost identical expression of bewilderment to the bewilderment I concentrate on myself.

The plan was to send out a circular to the knights via Atlas, so that they would leave the scene gently so that they wouldn't get in trouble, because of Cortex, she went completely crazy, and she seemed to have trouble with how to deal with it.

However, fortunately, near her, the original commander (?) There was an Atlas appearance.

There's no way he didn't see or hear what his sister said or did, but he immediately sees things and tries to pinch his mouth.

"Ready? You guys......"

That's all I said...... somehow Waltz gets his hands in front of him and interrupts that statement.

"... sister?

Atlas tries to ask the circumstances, either because Waltz's behavior was unusual or with a surprised look on his face.

But that response will never come back from Waltz......

Instead, she started using her own mouth to talk when she gave her little grin back to her brother and then turned her eyes to the many knights in front of her.

"... I'm not very good at speaking in public, so I might have a point, but would you listen? I think Atlas has reported that this North Fortress has no one... unfortunately. We all died in an accident... But this is a central town, and a fort, to protect the North, even in Mid-Eden. So, I think I know, but you can't just leave me alone. So, this time, you have a white feather arrow standing on you. So..."

And Waltz, once he looked around, said:

"... to protect this country, guys, could you play a part?

At that moment,

"Yes! I'll take care of it!

"I will definitely let this land die!

"Even if I swap for this life!

Whoa!

and the surrounding knights roaring.

Then they seemed to walk away to North Fortress, exasperated.

And where the knights were neglected...

"... Hey, sister. Have you changed your mind?

Once again, Atlas asked Waltz, who acted rather uncommonly, even than usual.

Waltz then mouths like this with a distant gaze toward the reddish sky.

"I don't know why the knights followed me... I've been thinking about why. He just walked, and he said there's not supposed to be anything, but why did you follow him? I thought you were just following me because you were free at first? In fact, a few people might think so."

"Well...... I guess so. There will be a few of them with all the training and extra body."

"But? Do you think it would be easy to say yes to such a long distance? If that's true too, I'm going to go to Boreas, so you know I'm going to travel over four times further from here... So... I noticed. They want to be useful."

and waltz to narrow the eyes that were pointed at the sky.

It seems that Atlas was very impressed with what his sister said.

As a result, he says… more than that, an extra word, even though I wish I hadn't heard it.

"Right...... By the way, who do you think they want to help?

"Of course that's... not for Teresa? I don't know."

…………

"Because that girl, bent over, is a former princess of the kingdom. If you think about it, you can interpret the knights as following along with her escort, right? That's why... I can't put mud on Teresa's face, and this time I had no choice but to explain, so...... I'll have to collect this debt from Teresa later."

Hear that word,

"... ha..."

and Atlas throwing up without hiding a big sigh.

"... what? Is that what you're trying to say?

"No. Nothing. I just thought, you know, it's the way it always is."

And he seems to have pursued the knights who went ahead, looking tired of what his sister said.

However, the expression seemed to contain some soothing colour.
