Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

And the next day.

The weather in Wangdu was also rainy this day. Apparently, the King's Capital this season has a lot of rain.

As a result, Waltz, who was at the launch and energy maintenance yard on the rooftop of the Royal Castle alternative facility, seemed to be sighing with a depressing look to the sky.

"Ahhh... rainy days are still acceptable if only for one day, but if it lasts for two days, it looks rusty and I don't like it - It won't rust..."

Next to such a waltz, my sister Lucia also opens her mouth.

"I, too, wonder if it's subtle to say rain all the time because my hair and tail get wet and heavy...... Sometimes it's good, huh?

"Lucia, you have long hair...... I mean, what about Teresa or Cortex? It's longer, isn't it?

"I don't know...... Cor would do something with magic I'm not sure about, but Teresa's clumsy, so she might think it's heavy. In Teresa's case, she has three tails, and hair all the way down her waist...... Looks like it's gonna be really hard to take care of?

And even though I didn't ask you specifically, I heard my sister say something about Theresa ——

"... you care a lot about Teresa?

—— and waltz to bump into questions.

Then Lucia said, "Huh?," he answered Waltz's question, tilting his neck.

"Um, I don't know, aren't you going to worry about it? 'Cause, look, it's Teresa..."

"Hmm. Well, we've never gotten over being close..."

And after I said that... Waltz looked up into the sky again.

What was at the end of her gaze like that is not a ratty sky that rains with Sitocito. It was a black (...) ku (...) huge object over 300m long, aerial battleship energy, moored on the roof of the Royal Castle alternative facility.

The energy there was supposed to be as bright white as a cloud floating in the sky. However, the current hull has a bright black color opposite to white... He seemed to look alike but not alike until yesterday.

And apparently, that was the result of the Waltz retrofits.

"Well... I've tried first aid for now, but this, if the gravity control device on the energy breaks, it'll all peel off at the top... Other than that, it is brittle, or it cannot be used as armor other than heat resistant..."

With that said, a waltz that lists something like a hexagonal shaped black panel in its hand toward the hull of energy. Then that panel floated out of her hands against gravity and into the air...... Then it filled in neatly into the gaps in the other heat-resistant panels that surrounded the hull of the energy.

Then Lucia, who was watching the situation, utters this sentiment.

"Something made you look like a black potato, huh? I was wondering if white would have been better for me."

"Well, even though it does look similar to the potentia, it's a collection of micromachines that are heat resistant, strength and cancer ignorance over there, so it's not functionally or perfectly different, is it? I agree with you that whites are preferred?

"Oh well... your sister prefers white too... hmmm"

And, as I say, Lucia swings her tail wide to the left and right.

Looking sideways at such a sister, Waltz opened his mouth again and said:

"I have one more day of respite and... should I whiten it now?

"... Huh?

"'Cause if you're supposed to catch a macrophage, Cortex is ready, so what we're gonna do is gone, isn't it? That means you're free to do anything… at this time, I thought I'd remodel the energy hull further. What do we do?"

"... you want to do it?

"Do you want me to?

And sisters who at the same time turn a happy grin to each other.

Thus, during the period leading up to tomorrow's departure, the demonic modification of energy by Lucia and Waltz was to continue.

On the other hand.

".................." katakata

From there, one level down, there was a Cortex figure. So she tapped on the keyboard somehow and seemed to be working on it.

Where that lasted awhile ——

".................. Phew." Perfect.

—— Cortex exhaled heavily. Apparently, literally, he's going to take a breath.

"... Macrophage... how could you have been in the heavenly side of the world tree ~?

And, Cortex whining, not addressed to anyone.

On the desk she was working on like that ——

Prune......

—— and a slimy object about 30 cm in diameter that shivers the body, Macrophage No. 1, is listed... Cortex, who was watching how it went, began to speak as if to translate his words.

"What? ~? You don't have to be so distracted ~?

Prune......

"Your sister is too appropriate and hard ~?

Prune......

"What would you like for dinner tonight ~?

Prune......

"... Whatever you say, it's the same reaction ~. Well, I don't make it so I can have complex thoughts, so naturally ~..................................................................................................................................................."

With that said, Cortex gently pokes his fingers at the surface of the macrophage, which was shaky. But the response from the macrophages is still nothing...... Cortex dropped his shoulder with a look that looked complicated.

Then she starts saying these things.

"... fulfill what's in that giant body ~? I didn't even check the contents then, but what Macrophage got huge would be evidence that she was swallowing something into different spaces in her body.... Macrophage # 1, do you know what that is ~?

Prune......

"Well, you don't get it. Because I'm worried that I don't know that either ~..."

And Cortex started moving his hands again. Yes, everything, to create the means to recover the giant macrophages at the top of the world tree….
