Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

"Wow, what a concubine..."

What have I done...... Theresa was greatly shocked to hear the words the Great Sage uttered when he left.

That I put a curse on Alto to resent myself. And that, in the future Mid-Eden, my relatives have been sacrificed for the creation of Homunculus by the men of Altair, the Demon King... Those two things didn't seem irrelevant to Teresa.

As a result, Cortex rushes over to her, who should also be called herself, as she collapses from her knees to the ground.

"Concubine?! Are you okay ~?!

"It's Cor... The concubine is apparently a great sinner... The concubine... could have killed her family... If the concubine hadn't hung the spiritual magic that cursed the concubine herself... everyone might never have died..."

"I don't..."

After saying that, Cortex gets stuck in words. She just got here a few minutes ago and couldn't grasp the situation until this moment and couldn't keep up with her understanding why Teresa had a bright blue look on her face.

But soon, the words' spiritual magic 'and' alto ', plus' family ', tied together in my head...... Looks like Teresa could have guessed what she was worried about.

And Cortex shook his head.

"Concubine. That's different"

"... why not. How can you say it's different?

"If in the future world Master Altair resents the concubine, it should do direct harm to the concubine first. But it was not the concubines, but the concubine's relatives - the royalty - who were actually harmed. But I hear their relationship with the concubine wasn't too good. Nonetheless, as harassment of concubines, killing a family of unfriendly concubines, etc... don't you think it's too much of a harassment to go around? There must be a more effective and direct way to harass them."

"... can I think of that? Is it okay to escape the consciousness of sin by thinking so..."

"Sin and nothing, concubines are simply overthinking. Make time to cool your head first. That way, I think you'll see your own answers too ~?

…………

Theresa exhaled slowly when she heard Cortex speaking in a soft manner as usual. Apparently, she decided, as Cortex put it, to think softly and calmly.

Waltz was having a conversation with a certain person, looking sideways at such an exchange between the two.... is the goddess Deprexa.

"Demon God —— no, it's waltz. Are you from the future?

"... I say it because I can't help hiding it anymore, but you're right? But isn't that so surprising? Even you come from Japan to this world..."

"Dimensional and temporal leaps mean different things. But...... is that right...... How long have you come from the future?

"Maybe, like, 1,300 years in the future?

"... me in those days too?

"I don't know. Haven't we met? Are you just not face-to-face, or are you trying to keep me from seeing you better, or--"

"... are you there already?

"What do you think? Well, you know why within 1300? I'm sure..."

That's what I said, waltz to narrow my eyes. That expression was soft because of the hometown, which is the same race (?) because I was just a little happy that I had a decent conversation with someone to say the same?

Towards such a waltz, Deprexa bowed her head.

"... sorry"

"What? Suddenly..."

"It was when I attacked you before. What was wrong with me then? Something I can't control fills my head..."

"[Absolute order] How dare you. Well, I don't know..."

"And so is the sage and alto thing. Sorry for the inconvenience."

"I'm good about that grandpa. Looks like he's gone from himself... But the problem is... you're the girl with the name Alto. Looks like he started calling himself" Altair. "

Waltz skinned the word and began to reveal to Deprexa the story of the demon king of the same name in the future world. The royal murder of the Kingdom of Mid-Eden, the events in the Boreas Empire, the summoning of large numbers of people from the modern world, etc…. However, I seem to have just skipped explaining that Catalina is a man of the past.

"I'm not going to go into details, but that happened... no, there's going to be..."

"... I am so sorry. Get that kid right away--"

"No, no, no, no. When they do that now, it's gonna be a lot of things, so don't do anything extra, okay? Well, the experience so far suggests that the observed future can't be changed..."

Waltz, saying so, turned his gaze to the southern sky.

There, the red coloured light seemed to shine like a sunset, reflecting on the clouds. But it wasn't the sunset, it was the brilliance of the [Great River] that Lucia had just created. Waltz seemed convinced that the future could not be changed before the sight of what was in the future and nothing in the past could be done one after another in front of him.

Then she revealed her current situation to Deprexa, who should also be said to be the same as herself. As a result, Deprexa has made certain suggestions…. Maybe even that suggestion was the result of the distortions in the world that sought to connect a definitive future with the past.
