Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

Katsun, Katsun, Katsun......

The sound of hard metal, beating on the floor where the rocks are laid. It is a footstep put up by a guard in armor.

The guard, wearing fully equipped armor from the top of his head to the toe of his feet, approached the chamber where the waltzes were --

"... hmm"

—— I peered inside and snorted satisfactorily before moving to the next cage. Apparently he has come to confirm the people the "Spirit" has captured.

"That reaction is annoying, isn't it?

"Sister..."

"Are you all right? Lucia. Don't worry, I'll protect you properly."

"Uh... not..."

"Hmm?"

"Yeah... nothing..."

Lucia swallows the words as they were, although she seemed to say something to her sister. The others, somewhere in Sowa —— no, they seemed freaked out, but there didn't seem to be any way Waltz noticed the reaction.

After that, listening to the rage that goes up everywhere, waiting for the guard to disappear...... Footsteps are approaching the waltzes again. And the guard who came, somehow stopping in front of the cage, began to peek inside. At that time, the gaze was directed at the women because the contents of the armor were male?

You boiled your career in such guard behavior, Endels boy speaks up.

"Hey! You! Get us out of here!

Then the guard, without saying anything, shoved the stick in his hand out of the gap of the cage against the Endels boy and gave him momentum. He didn't care about the rebellious attitude of the Endels boy.

The opposing Endels boy skilfully avoids it...... Conversely, he holds the stick aside and tries to pull it.

But just before that. Leonardo, the brave man who was watching the whole thing, moved and strapped his wings from behind about the Enders boy.

"Enders. Stop it."

"Huh! So, but!

"Are you going to annoy all of you? I remember what I heard earlier."

"Knock..."

Did anyone with a defiant attitude recall the story of the instant death penalty, the Endels boy who lets go of his stick in such a way as reluctantly?

On the other hand, did you get angry that you were resisted... The guard uses a freed stick and tries to hit the Endels boy. But ——

Gun!!

"Oops. I'm sorry about this. It was dark and my feet fluttered."

—— Stopped by Leonardo's spinning kick that disfigured him.

Then the guard stared at the maid brave for a while, then rang his tongue and walked away from the spot.

"Hey, Yong Sy...... Leo? Isn't that awkward right now?

"... I apologize for distracting you. My legs stuck out. But even if I didn't... Wasn't Master Waltz a amulet?

"... come on? What do you think?

Waltz answered that, then after a glimpse of the Endels boy, who had a regrettable look on his face... I proceeded to the cage where the guard was gone.

So she asks her peers as she observes the making of the cage.

"We don't have time for this, so why don't we just break this and get out of jail?

Then, until the guard arrived, the Enders boy, who was watching the cage, shook his head and said:

"Earlier, I tried to see if I could break this cage too... but it looked like it would wipe out magic and it didn't work. Even if you use magic to amputate it, you can't help it at all. Maybe he's using a special metal that wipes out magic so the people he catches can't escape."

"Some kind of cage setting that might appear in some comic book..."

"Hmm? Cartoons? Settings?"

"Uh, but you've been trapped in a cage with the same effect before... Hey? Lucia. Remember?"

"Hmm... did it happen? Such a cage......"

Lucia, told the story, replied that way to her sister, while approaching the cage--

"'Cause see? This cage, the Wizard, it's gonna be easy, okay?

Spannnnnnnnnnnnn!!

—— It was easily severed by light magic.

"Hmm?!

"Nah. I knew it was a stakeout."

"For once, the cage was a cage, wasn't it? But I wonder if it's your fault that the magic is undone, Enders?

Sisters out of the cage, saying so to each of them.

Towards those two backs, the Enders boy seemed to react like a werewolf.

"Hey, what... its magic..."

For Lucia, the question was one that had been asked so many times before, precisely to the point where her ears hurt. But she didn't have to frown when she heard the Endels boy's inquiry... Instead, I gave him a happy look somewhere and answered this briefly.

"Yeah? Because... I'm a brave man too! (I'm still a candidate...)"

And Lucia chasing her sister who goes ahead.

Then Leonardo, and the other two go on...... At that time, there was a bitter grin on their faces, perhaps because they overlapped what they used to be and what they are now Endels boys.
