Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

"So what is it ~? You want to ask me something ~?

Beatrice questions that Cortex interrupted along the way because of his jokes. To answer that, Cortex asked himself back.

Beatrice, in contrast, answers this question by saying it.

"It may be rude for me to just look outside and ask... what do you say? Are you going to find a way back to the old days?

Approximately a week after coming to this era. Apparently, she was getting worried that she would be able to safely return to her old days. However, she didn't even convey the worrying "shi" word from her now that she was hawking Teresa into a trance.

But such a Beatrice question isn't just for her, it's something that almost everyone on the crew who was to be caught up in Time Warp should have the same...... It wasn't a strange question to fly from anyone whenever.

And Cortex has been trying to figure out a way to go back to the original world for the past week so that we can all go back to the original world... At this point she seemed to put together a solution to the problem to the extent that the question could be answered whenever it flew in.

"… I think of about three ways to get back"

"Do you have three?

"Uh-huh. Moving into the future is, in itself, theoretically possible. The question is how do we achieve that method? Probably a big job like no one's ever done before."

That's what Cortex said, once he exhaled... I started talking to the Beatrix and Theresa who would listen to me seriously about how to get back to the future.

"The first is to create a demonic prop for Time Warp, with the highest hurdle among the three options, but once completed, you will be able to come and go freely between the future and the past. If you think about not just going back to the old days, but even letting Macrophage 1 have the ability to transfer to the past and leave it at the top of the world tree, it's imperative that you make this magic prop"

"... can't we just prioritize it and go back to our original times? It sounds like… we have to develop the ability to move into the future and the ability to move into the past…"

"This option is the ultimate goal until you get tired of it. For the time being, too, I think we should give priority to studying how to get back to the original times, so I am thinking about freezing for now the development of features that will go back to the past. We just can't change the fact that we're back in the world of the past, so we have to make it someday. So I'm thinking about making it if it's easy to make on the way back to the future developing features, and if it seems difficult, I'll just warm up the idea ~?

"You can't just go home..."

"Uh-huh. If we don't leave the means to this era with us in the past -- no, the future -- we won't be able to achieve historical integrity."

"I get it. So, what's the second?

"... it will be a one-way way way to just think about going back to the future, but it's about modifying the item box so people can get in. Time stops inside the item box, so if you can get inside the item box alive, I believe it's relatively easy to go home, as it did when you delivered supplies to the future Mid-Eden. Well, it's hard to modify an assembled item box once, so it's a hassle having to rebuild it from a new one ~"

"But compared to the first story, I thought it was a pretty specific story?

"Yeah, in fact, it would be pretty less challenging. So, as a backup means, I'm thinking about using this second method. It's just that ~... if you get dug up and abused by a third party, your lives could be in danger, so I'd just like to take a different way if I can ~"

"So fate is the third way?

Beatrice who says so and tilts his neck.

Cortex replies to her like that... Its contents went well beyond the imagination of Beatrice.

"... is it good ~? Bear. In the future world, how many would the moon have floated ~?

"What? Of course that's... one?

"Right ~? But in this day and age ~?

"... two, right? But what's wrong with that?

"How can the moon be one in the future ~. Why haven't you floated 2 ~...... I don't feel like we're the cause of this."

"... no way... to go back to the future, you mean erase the moon?!

"" What... "

"I can't say for sure yet, but I think it probably is. Maybe it's me or your sister who's going to turn off the moon.... From the theory of relativity, the thing called mass is one element that can't be cut off with the concept of time or space. That too, the heavier it is, the greater its influence, so I think it makes a lot of sense to use a giant mass - the moon - as a material to transcend time ~"

"Well... that's a lot..."

"It gets longer when we start talking, so I'll skip the details ~... Well, in brief, it means going back to the future in a scientific way, not magic. That's the opposite of the first option ~"

And so says Cortex with a nickel and a grin.

I'm not sure if her words like that got through to Beatrix... Beatrice, who heard the explanation, seemed to have some idea. Maybe the knowledge she is being taught by Catalina is advanced enough to understand Cortex's words.

Meanwhile, the other two assistants seemed to have heard Cortex's words and thought a lot about it. In time, if you're Teresa, just leave it... Rather than relativity theory, Lucia was also conceiving that she should not even know the existence of classical physics because Cortex's words contained words that caught something......
