Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

Green hilly areas where the sun set and darkened --South Fortress region. Although the two moons floating in the sky softly illuminate the area around them, they are not as bright as the big moon after 1300...... There was something slightly more difficult for a normal human to see around.

Therefore, no one in South Fortress seems to have noticed the (...) preservation (...) of the (...) approaching without sound from the other side of the dark sky.

Zdwong!!

Disturbing vibrations and roars strike the town of South Fortress, built by Lucia in piercing works. The consciousness of the people, who were wandering in their fullness after dinner, awoke simultaneously, as if they had been beaten with hammers, by that anomaly.

"Hey, what?!

"What is it?!

"Aren't you out of town?!

"What the hell... What..."

And people notice. Outside of town --

"" "If so, monster...............!

--White shines in the light of the moon, like a giant shadow (sandworm) rolling...

"Ha... I want to be on more... I can't believe the night sky was so beautiful, not just during the day..."

"Captain. Please calm down. Please, calm down..."

"... Altman. You're the one who calms down and looks at your hands. Oh, yeah. I'm not letting you go with the pillars. I'm talking about that hand of yours."

"Commander...... I was wondering if you should see what you have..."

"Jack... so are you"

Energy arriving at destination. The mercenaries who stood in front of the tarrap seemed to have done comic talent with all the alignment.

Well, actually, he seemed to stick to the pillar from the heart, not the comic genius. Not so long ago, the view outside from the ship was impressive...... Their hearts are filled with the magic of the sky (?) They made me an eagle by.

"Hey, you guys. Promise? Come down here, right? I gave you a pleasure flight around the area, so there's no more service, is there?

Always, there's no way to keep Alexandra and the others, the people of past times, on board, Waltz urging them to disembark.

Then, finally, the mercenaries, one, and another, went down the tarap and went outside the energy. Except for Alexandra, who seems to have stayed until the end.

Nevertheless, she refused to come down. When she lets go of the pillar of energy, unfortunately, she begins to turn her body to Waltz and talk.

"... thanks till now, demon god... no, the temple of women"

"Hey..."

"Oh, no, I know the name, but I'm afraid... Is that good? You can call me by name..."

"Absolutely. I mean, rather, it would help if you quit calling me by anything other than a name?

"Right. I'm sorry you did that.... Lord Waltz"

"Ha... finally? Finally..."

"Phew... Uh, yeah, yeah. I wanted to thank you before I got off. But I don't have anything to tell you. I don't know if giving money is because I'm on the receiving end of the request..."

"No, you don't have to worry about it. You're gonna have to work a lot from now on, right? If you say you're grateful, it would help if you could return it to me with that hard work?

"Right... right. Leave it to me. One day when Lord Waltz comes to this town again, I'll rip your eyes off and try to create it into a stunning splendid town? Just wait, okay?

"............ yes. You're expecting me?

Township of South Fortress now only in shape. I know how that is changing in the future 1300 years from now... But Waltz never spoke of the town on this occasion.

"Well... I'm coming. A hunter? A master."

and Alexandra, who also turns her words to the hunter who stood beside the waltz.

Then, after exchanging a word or two and greeting with the hunter too... Alexandra started going down the talap.

From the edge, the sight seemed to see those who remained dropping off those who travelled. But that was what it looked like for a moment.

"Well. Bye, hunter. Shall we go?

"Oh, yeah."

Waltz and hunters alike, began to descend the talap. Follow behind Alexandra, too.

Alexandra, who was walking forward to see if that was an unexpected event, turns around with a strange look on her face.

"What's up, both of you?"

"What? No, I was just thinking about picking you up because I have company in town?

"Oh, oh... right... So, you're not saying goodbye yet, are you?

"Yeah, well. I mean... you, something very important, haven't you forgotten?

"Hmm? Something important?... I've got the weapons, I've got the luggage, my people have gone down... Anything else...?

"Look, the money for the reward"

"Reward......? It gives me a whole town, isn't that the reward?

"It's not that. South Fortress today is just like a haribote with a building in the shape of a house? You're gonna need startup funding to make it a decent town, right?

"Shh... what is that?

"Anyway, you're going to need the money," he said. So I thought I'd give you the money for that. "

"That's... I'm so sorry. From what to what..."

"You don't have to worry about it. It's like a commission for a request."

"If it was, I'd take it here? It's gonna be baggage, right?

"You can give it here if you want... but maybe you can't have it.

Listen to that unintelligible word of Waltz ——

".................. Huh?

—— Alexandra, who just says, "What are you talking about?"

Then the next moment. Before her, what Waltz calls "startup funding" appears out of the void... As soon as I saw it, it seemed that it was Alexandra herself who peeled her eyes and was surprised.
