Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

"... I won't forgive you..."

Waltz turns to the great sage who says he broke his body in two, but still looks alive.

At the same time, she speaks to Catalina, who was sinking into the spot.

"Are you okay, Catalina?"

"The pain isn't that bad, but I'm checking it out just in case. Can I ask you to do something later?

"Oh, yeah... Return the fun..."

Waltz narrowed his eyes as he said so. Not long ago, he remembered when he left Catalina and Dahlia and walked away from the scene.

By the way, Dahlia seemed to have taken the Ardelheits to evacuate to the church and orphanage because she could not join the battle with the Great Sage. Instead of being able to fight, let's do what we can now, that's what I thought.

And......

Waltz tries to act --

"............"

"... hmm?

—— Her actions force her to pause, in front of a black shadowy object.

"What?"

"………"

"What? Do you do Schwartz too?

"............"

"... So let's work together to defeat him? Be careful, all right?

"………"!

Waltz to allow his participation in the battle before Schwartz, who looks angry and heartless at the harm done to his parents (?).

... shortly afterwards.

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!!

From beneath the ground, where nothing seemed to exist, like countless black spears grew in unison against the sky...... In an instant, he transformed the body of the Great Sage into a miserable appearance.

That's not all. The surface of the black spear began to erode the body of the Great Sage, which became unspeakable because of its predatory action, at a rapid rate.

Look at it--

"Wow..."

—— and waltz with a sincerely unpleasant look on his face. In doing so, she seems to have sworn her oath to her heart.... and Schwartz (...) trying not to piss me off, too.

As a result, the Great Sage's body disappeared without a trace from the spot, leaving only the hand that grabbed the girl Maria. As a result of Cheval's caution that she would not let the girl Maria get hurt, the only thing left seems to be her hands.

Seeing such a tragic sight, however, the people of the town bowed their breasts. The children in the church, the Dahlia who had evacuated, Catalina and Schwartz, were all convinced of the defeat of the Great Sage.

But...

'... cum cum... fu haha!

—— Apparently there are far more vital people in the world than some blackening insect (?) appears to be there.

And...... Things move.

From the arm (...) of the girl Maria, who had previously collapsed on the ground in front of me, I thought suddenly I heard a laugh, the next moment ——

Bun......

—— and she disappeared from the spot.

Watching that, waltzes that unwittingly solidify.

Catalina in particular seemed to have blued her face. It didn't seem to her that the great sage who should have lost even her brain would be able to remain conscious.

But the truth is, the Great Sage seemed to be alive. Though he didn't see him, he left these words on the spot...

'Let's admit I'm unprepared this time. But this isn't gonna happen next, is it? Demons. Don't forget. "

And his signs, with the girl Maria, disappeared from the town of Forn.

◇

"Catalina......"

"…………" …

After being exposed to my sister's girl Maria in front of me, it will be a form of defeat by the Great Sage...... Catalina had sat out on the spot. Waltz and Schwartz peered into her face like that worryingly --

".................. ha. Exhaling sighs makes happiness run away, the word is... Again, it's a mistake to exhale because happiness ran away..."

--As the two of us thought, Catalina's expression was not excellent...... She looked like she regretted her helplessness.

Waltz and Schwartz sitting next to Catalina without knowing what to say to her like that for now, they both regretted their lack of action, just like Catalina.

And the three looked up at the sky, all together. Ahead, far away, there is a hull of energy floating around like a small dot... Perhaps on board, on the contrary, you are looking down on the waltzes.

Did you think of that...... This is how Waltz mumbles.

"... what do we do? Catalina."

I can't sit on the ground forever and I have to be ready to go back to my old days...... Waltz seems to have remembered that.

In contrast, Catalina replies as she hugs Schwartz.

"... it is decided. Whatever happens, I have to move on. That must be... the fate imposed on me to walk down a path without a path, off the path of men"

And Catalina stood up.

Towards the back of it, Waltz still didn't seem to know what to respond to. Therefore, she said nothing and just stood up to Catalina... The two began walking silently to the church and orphanage.
