Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

"... this equipment is going to be misused in future times, right?

The hunters who heard the word were confused again in a different way than just before. I didn't want Deprexa to know as much as I could about what would happen in the future. If she is known to be a past being, the future may be rewritten in some cases...... That's because even now, when I was supposed to act with her, it didn't change.

But on the other hand, they were also thinking the opposite.... Instead, I thought you should know about the future. Could that avert a tragic future...... Both Julia and the hunter, in their hearts, seemed to be fighting such a grid.

Still, there's a reason they didn't reveal the wash to Deprexa.

"Whoa, there's nothing to talk about right now. It's off the record."

Because Teresa, a former princess of the Mid-Eden kingdom, did not want a future alteration. Theresa was undoubtedly the most devastated victim of the royal massacre that occurred in Mid-Eden. The Julians had no better choice than that she was shaking her head.

The opposing deprexa seemed to have thought about it for a little while after hearing Theresa's words. Perhaps she was giving thought to a number of options at this moment.... Should we keep the plant alive or dismantle it, or should we listen to Theresa and the others talk about the future and work out what to do...

After a while, she concludes.

"... I guess the future can't be changed"

"It would help if you thought about it that way. Because the concubines are acting assuming that the future cannot or should not be changed."

"Okay. Let's maintain the status quo."

Deprexa replied so, gazing toward the end of the aisle. As a result, her expression will hide from Theresa and the others... Maybe there was a color floating around that was close to worrying.

As such, the line proceeded to the "protein manufacturing plant". The lumps of meat floating in the cylinders that were there, although they were food entering a person's mouth, did not seem pleasant to watch.

"I'm so scared...... Meat...... yeah, demons are made this way?

From Rosemary's point of view, the pieces of meat that were in the cylinder seemed like a process of making demons.

It was Deprexa, the person who built the plant, not the hunter beside her who answered that query.

"What we're making here is not demons, it's just food...... food. So you don't have to be scared, do you? It does look like a demon or animal arm or foot, but if it's true, it can also be made in a steak-like fashion. But this is how we make it look a little grotesque to get people to eat it. If you take only processed meat to a town or village, it's disgusting and you won't receive it."

"Is that why you're making me look like you?

"Yes. Basically."

and a deprexa that takes the lead in a tone that leaves the inclusions.

Then now Beatrice asks.

"Basically... that means it's also used in a non-basic way, right? For example… as an organ for transplantation, etc."

"... how familiar are you?

"I have received a medical lecture from my teacher."

"Vixen... is it..."

"That's just what I call it now, though my real name is different..."

and bitterly smiling beatrix.

The opposing deprexa answered Beatrice's question this way, with what a complex look on her face.

"... Mr. Beatrice. You know, if you know anything about medicine, you know that healing magic doesn't allow you to regenerate lost hands and feet, right?

"Yeah, the essence of the healing magic effect is cell activation, so I hope it's about bleeding or fracture, but in the case of injuries that greatly defect body tissue, we can't supply the material and we can't regenerate it with healing magic, right?

"Exactly. So, to repair a body defect?

"Is it quick to cultivate body tissue and stick it together?

"That's right. So... why are the brave men who get well injured and sometimes lose their lives in adventure able to continue their adventures safely?

"That's... Oh, that's what you mean?

"The patronage of the goddess that it is given to the brave men. The answer to that is this bioplant."

and a satisfactorily nodding deprexa. Apparently, the adventures of the brave in this world were supported not by magical powers, but by scientific forces.

Then again, the description of the bioplant by Deprexa continues...... All along, Beatrice seemed to be turning her gaze toward Deprexa as if she were going to see a teacher.
