Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

After walking away from the Adventurer Guild.

Sometimes it was the idle winter months and the waltzes succeeded in securing accommodation without difficulty.

At that time, they had been invited by those who had been expelled from this town and were refugees to come to their homes…

It will no longer be necessary to say anything about Waltz reluctantly turning that down.

As a result, Waltz, who had rented out the entire lodging and was coming to the dining room, had a hot pot pie made by the hunter protruding at the tip of the spoon…

"Hmm... you're in trouble..."

Something troubling happened, and he seemed to have a cheekstick on his desk behaving badly.

Against such a sister, Cortex, who had not yet returned to Mid-Eden, threw this question.

"What the hell is bothering you ~?

"Well, I'm trying to figure out how to get Vixen back. There was only one Eclerian consul in this town, so it was easy to get the town back, but I don't think it would be that easy to get the town back if something like Vixen or a bigger town ahead came out with straw and Eclerians... You know, it's good to say that if you look at one, you think there's 100 of them."

Waltz sighs again saying that.

Apparently, as for her, she wanted to solve the problem in the least bleeding way she could.

But if you're Cortex, he wasn't.

"I'll tell you something serious, don't you have to assault me anymore ~? I think if you twitch and put pressure on it, you'll, in the meantime, perceive yourself at a disadvantage and get out of town ~? Well, if you're mentally ill, or you can't resist throwing your life away, and you're not the subject of such a troublesome thought holder, I'm talking about it."

"In short, reoccupy from the front, right? But it's not going to be that easy. Even though, they are likely to be guerrillaly counterattacked, and there are a lot of transference magic, transformation magic, and spiritual magic in this world that are extremely annoying depending on how they are used...... Besides, there's guns over there, right?

"I think this is the same condition for that ~? But that's right ~... if there's a problem, if you go straight from the front, will the occupation take a while ~? If it's about this city, it's going to have a piece in a few days, but if it's going to be a big city in the Vixen class, it might take months or so before the occupation is completely over ~"

After I said that, I broke the pot pie lid with a spoon, and with the soup in it, Cortex carried it to my mouth looking delicious.

It seems she didn't go right back to Mid-Eden because the goal was to eat this.

Then at that time.

Eve, who was eating deliciously while shaking her legs and tail with a boom as she sat in a chair that didn't fit her back length, sandwiched her mouth in the conversation between them.

"Master Waltz? Question, maybe. What, but how could the Ecclerians have occupied Vixen in a short time? As far as Cor's story is concerned, the Ecclerians may feel that it will take a long time to occupy Vixen..."

Waltz, in contrast, replies with a finger on his chin, showing a bare gesture of contemplation.

"Right...... For example, but with overwhelming force, he wiped out all those who poke at him. I'm talking about Yuki B. The Ecclerians, they took a lot of demons and pushed them. Well, if you go that far, you might call it a massacre, a scorched-earth operation, not an occupation?

"Oh well...... Well, the bakery that Eve was imploring, the udon shop... they could have killed us all..."

"No, if a bakery or udon shop is becoming a resistance and teeth to Eccleria's soldiers, that could be the subject of execution... no, right?

"What..."

"Huh? What? Was it those bloody people? Its bakeries and udon shops..."

and waltz to see Eve's reaction and imagine the mystery.

In her head, a bakery or udon shop appeared to be fighting with a hinoki noodle stick.

Was that the same for Cortex, she opens her mouth with a bitter smile too.

"Well, whatever it is about the bakery and the udon shop ~, if you think about taking back the town of Vixen, shouldn't you think about using considerable force to deal with this one, too, unless you can come up with some odd tactics ~?

"Right...... But you're not on this side of the battle..."

"Shall I send you from Mid-Eden ~? Now that the skirmishes with our neighbors have dropped dramatically, we can send divisions from 6th to 18th ~? It's a bargain sale ~?

"Were our people there that long?

"Yes. Still, it's only a third of the total"

"But if you change your mind about that... it's the same thing that Mid-Eden occupies Boreas, right? Well, I don't think what you're doing with Ecleria is going to change..."

Is it appropriate to march to save Boreas?

Or what about moving the army for Boreas, who do not have a military treaty, until they sacrifice their own soldiers?

also, thereby, what do the people on the Boreas side think of Mid-Eden......

In Waltz's head, a troubled tane full of dilemmas, seemed to be full.

And that's when.

Karan Cologne......

Null and Yuki B, who were supposed to go to the Consul's Hall and do post-processing, came to the dining room, which was on the first floor of the inn.

"Wah, Master Waltz! Please, call me when you eat! Torture is also a good place to not be able to eat a good meal from the hunter!

"Yes! My only entertainment right now is eating a hunter's meal and loving Marie!

"You wouldn't say it's only (...) one (...)... ma'am, fine. We have a proper meal for two, don't we?... right? Mr. Hunter?" Chillah.

"Oh, of course. I was trying to get it to you later because you seemed busy... I'll have it ready now, just wait."

That said, hunter in cock disappearing into the kitchen.

To her words like that, both Nuru and Yuki B seemed to moisten their eyes while holding their mouths down, but the trick seemed not to be to hide the look that was moving and about to cry.

Waltz then asked the nulls, who had wiped (stuffed) the clear liquid dripping from their mouths, to report the status quo on the seats across the street.

"So, soldiers, what were you saying?

"As for Vixen, as I heard on the guild, it's not very good...... no, it's pretty bad. Suffice it to say, you don't seem to have any information. And I'm talking about this town, and like Vixen, one day, all of a sudden, people with cylindrical magic props came along, and just one night, they killed about 30% of the soldiers in this town. So I decided I couldn't fight any more, and I had no choice but to turn over the town, officials said. Because of this, the soldiers and officials of this town, without grasping the situation… seem to have just had no choice but to follow the instructions of the consul left by the Eclerian side until today. And this time, there seemed to be few who feared that there might be retaliation from the Eclerian side for our taking back this town."

"Well, it will (for this matter, isn't it likely that we can properly gather information on Syranui...). So, guns... did you recover the cylindrical magic props?

"That's..."

Null said so, frowning, leaning over.

Seeing that Yuki B has the same look on her face, she apparently couldn't recover it.

Then Null, with a bitter expression, started talking.

"... I'm sorry. At the time of the murder of the consul, it should certainly have been on the desk, but at some point it had disappeared with the consul's personal belongings... It doesn't look like someone snuck it out of the room, so I thought maybe with the consul's body, it turned out to be a particle of light..."

"Yes...... I wanted to analyze the opponent's combat power... well, fine."

That's what I said, waltz exhaling sighs that I don't know how many times.

Then she muttered these words, not directed at anyone.

"All this time, I guess I have to leave..."

"What?"

"Yeah. Never mind..."

That said, waltz to start putting on the pot pie that still had the fever, again.

Apparently, her troubles are likely to persist for some time now.
