Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

"What does it look like? An introductory laboratory in this town..."

"I've never been on a regular route, but I don't think there's a big difference between Boreas or Mid-Eden, right?

After stopping the carriage at the end of the line of carriages that were lined up at the town's introductory inspection station.

Waltz and Yuki get down from there, line up for inspections, and exchange such exchanges.

Indeed, Yuki is right, there is a line of carriages and people waiting for the procedure, just like in every country and every town...

Nothing seems to have changed in particular.

... That's why Waltz seems to have doubted it.

I was wondering if there would be any major pitfalls.

By the way.

The Waltz flew across the border, so naturally, they didn't.

If this were to use the land route on the way home, there should be a small confusion at the border inspection post about how we crossed the border...

This time, they plan to use energy even on their way home, so there may be no particular problem.

"Hmm... I hope so, but I have a bad feeling about it..."

Listen to that.

"" "What..." "

and fellow voices at the same time.

I was usually a waltz who only said the right thing, but when she said 'I have a bad feeling', because there is a good chance something will happen......

Everyone seems to have been unintentionally alert, looking up and down from left to right at the same time.

Waltz explained the situation before his companions in such suspicious behavior.

"No? Try to remember your journey. Remembering in turn from the first town...... what happened in North Fortress? What about Olija? After that...... there was nothing in the town of Ripa, but what about the town of Aruba? What about the town of Zapato? What about Wespel? There was a lot going on, wasn't there? Zombies roaming, towns blowing up, Eccleria attacking, carriages exploding, and then... Eccleria attacking me after all..."

"... I mean, do you suspect that something will happen here as well?

"Yeah, that's the thing. Well, I don't think there's ever going to be an Ecleria attack on a boulder, but I don't know, I think it's going to happen... and that's pretty nasty too..."

And, waltz responding to Yuki's query, whether he's alert or expecting it, in a way that doesn't either.

But it seems that her anxiety never went away on the spot......

The line was getting shorter and shorter, and their turn to inspect the town came.

"Next! Show me your ID!

"Ah, yes. Go ahead...... (Speaking of which, was it good with the Adventurer ID?

and waltz that just makes me anxious after I give him the Adventurer Guild card.

Because, it seems to repeat, this is not the Boreas Empire, but the Kingdom of Alborosa.

True neighbors are exotic.

In some cases, I couldn't deny the possibility of being taken just because I had Boreas' guild card.

"... Boreas adventurer? Long way, annoying."

There seemed to be no particular problem.

"Huh? Oh, yes. But, well, it was a carriage trip, so it wasn't a big deal."

"Well, well."

and a gatekeeper soldier who listens to Waltz and shows some convincing reaction.

Like that, there was nothing like something going wrong in the proceedings so far.

That's right.

(...) There was nothing wrong with (...).

Not only Waltz, but also the other members and Yuki, who was supposed to be the former emperor of the neighbouring country, and Loricon, who is treated as a criminal in Mid-Eden, passed the checks on entering the town without any suspicion.

I would say that the word 'also' in the 'problem' didn't even exist.

Therefore, the problem did not arise among the waltzes.

The problem is...

"... you've come to attend the marriage ceremony of the grandson of the chief."

Looks like he flew in from the gatekeeper.

"... Um... by the way, what's your grandson's name... do you say Silanui?

"Oh, yeah? You're here to celebrate her, aren't you?

"Oh, yes... yes..."

And waltz how he figured out the situation.

She seemed to have been able to anticipate the expansion in advance, and although she was surprised for a moment, nothing seemed to disturb her.

But......

Things seemed even more pressing than she thought.

"The ceremony starts at noon today... oh, when it starts already"

"" "Hey?!

Listen to that word.

"Also, can I go now?!

"Come on... he's in too much of a hurry..."

"... you're in trouble"

and a row of waltzes to start panicking.

I shouldn't have guessed their circumstances like that, but the gatekeeper said this with a bitter smile, in an atmosphere that seemed good to people.

"Yeah, we're done with the process, so we can go now, okay? The ceremony venue is the hall of the chief just down this road. Rude n"

"Yes, let's hurry!?

"I'm going first!

That's what I said, Waltz and Atlas rushing out.

Such two people really seemed to want to talk to Silanui before the matrimonial righteousness began.

After dropping off those two things, the gatekeeper opens his mouth like a sneer.

"You're in a hurry..."

"Uh-huh. I'm worried about you, my dear fellow."

"... Huh?

"Well, shall we go after the concubines, too? lucia j y"

"O............"

"... oh?

"... I smell sushi...! ♪ Kicubi ♪

"... Later."

With that said, I pull about Lucia trying to get somewhere with Fluffy, trying to get to the ceremony venue, Teresa and the rest of us.

Thus they too, a little later than the waltzes, were to go to the Hall of the Chief, where the ritual of Syranui's marriage would be performed.

◇

'Harsh' if there is a word to describe the air on the spot in a nutshell.

It will run out of it.

This place is like, in a big temple building.

The wooden columns, the fine tatami of the chime, and the open-and-open fusoma continue in the Hall of the Long.

There were all the ghosts sitting in line.

Such is their height, in starvation......

Some women are tall and fit, some men are low and idle... that's how it is.

They were seated in such a way as to part to the left and right of the room that in the center they could do things like passages.

And that's where I was.

…………

…………

I thought I had it for today's ritual, and I was dressed in clothes, and I was going to be her husband. (...) Ro (...) I was a ghost man.

That's right.

The ceremony has just begun.

They just walked into the room.

Behind such a room sat a rather old haunted man, even compared to those around him.

Apparently he is the 'long'.

Looks like Silanui's grandfather.

The two of them went to such lengths, with their entourage, step by step….

Then he reached the seat futon that was in front of the length, where he slowly lowered his hips.

After an emotional look at those two...

The elder man began to speak slowly.

"... how many times have you dreamed of this moment... I'm not happy about today, am I?

To that word...

…………

…………

Silent, yet heavily nodding, Silanui and her husband.

And...

"I will do more matrimonial righteousness than this!

The heavy voice of an old man who didn't make him feel like he was old, rang out on the spot - that was when.

"Sister... You know, don't think weird. Put it in normal, normally..."

"No, but... here's the thing... I'm sorry, right? I feel like I'm here to take the bride..."

"That's why you sneak into the attic... what are you doing here..."

Such a disturbing conversation was heard from the entrance of the hall.

The moment I heard that voice...

"Oh, Master Atlas and Master Waltz?!

And, with a surprised look on his face, Syranui looks back on the spot.

At the end of her gaze...

"Ah, Silanui. I knew you were alive!

"... sister. You can say that in this air..."

And there seemed to be two familiar figures.
