Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

The next morning. In the hangar of energy......

There was someone there who was worried about Deprexa being gone.... Well, to be exact, there were a lot of people worried about Deprexa-related, should I say? This is the case, for example, with waltzes. Anyway, with Deprexa gone, the world's balancers are gone. I can tell you there's no need to worry about what to do now.

But what I'm going to cover here is not about her, who thinks she can handle it with momentum.

"... it's Halapeko"

Leah, the wizard, who has difficulty figuring out what he is thinking, was also terribly troubled in his heart because of the lack of words from time to time and, on top of that, less ups and downs in his expression.

Her "original" worries. It was that Catalina, arguably a rival, became strong enough to pull herself apart and go somewhere far. It was Leah who was losing her memory of the past, but only her rival heart for Catalina remained, and she could not forgive the difference in strength from her.

It was particularly remarkable in "magic." Previously, when the two of them were acting together as brave parties, Catalina had only so little magic that she could not even manipulate recovery magic properly...... Simply comparing magic, Leah was overwhelming Catalina.

Line up beside it at a certain time and finally flip it...... Now Catalina is the second-largest possession of magic on board, following Lucia.

There are several reasons why Leah's magic power has been lost to Catalina, but there are major events that cannot be resolved by effort alone.... that I have suffered from a difficult disease that leaks magic from my body. Although Catalina's gene therapy has worked and Leah has recovered to the extent that she can live her normal life, it has not changed that her magic leaks out...... Unless that worked out, it was almost impossible for Leah to compare back to Catalina with magic or magic.

And here finally Deprexa has something to do with it.

A brave man found out about Leah's irresistible confrontation went into a certain action.... I asked Deprexa for a mentor. I've lived far longer than Waltz, and on top of that, I wondered if the magically savvy goddess Deprexa would know how to make magic stronger.

As a result, Leah was to receive a dose of nanomachines from Deprexa.... don't tell the attending Catalina either.

The effect of the nanomachine administered to her was to gather magic drifting into the surrounding environment. Thus, he tried to augment his magic by administering the same nanomachines created for the purpose of creating an artificial god, like the Altiles.

As a deprexa, he seemed to think that administering a nanomachine to the rear, where the generation and retention of magic was unstable, would not be a major problem. The nanomachine is called "calculus." Originally, I don't have a great deal of magic (...) to (...) see (...) eh (...) ru (...) I just administered the nanomachine to the rear and it just makes the magic a little stronger...... Computationally, it was supposed to be strong enough to shoulder to shoulder with Catalina.

But it's the norm all the time not to be on the morsel street. Deprexa's predictions were about to come off big now that she was gone.

Nevertheless, Leah was unaware of that. She was supposed to have a mentor. With Deprexa gone, she was halfway there, unaware of her physical changes.

changes that have occurred in her body. That was very trivial.

"... I'm hungry"

"It's almost lunch time. But... if you can't stand it, why don't you ask Eve? I'm sure you'll serve something to eat, won't you?

"... I'm going because my head is blurry"

In the hangar, after answering to the brave man who had continued to load supplies yesterday... Leah turned to the cafeteria.... Yes, she was being attacked by an unusual hunger.

It was this morning that it began. After I woke up, I was attacked by hunger and had more breakfast.

Still, her hunger was not satisfied. It's as if there's a hole in your stomach that doesn't make you hungry, whether you eat it or not.

"Why suddenly..."

Leah ponders the reasons for her hunger as she walks down the road leading to the cafeteria. She seemed to think that breakfast would have been a disheartening menu, etc., but the real reason - the vast majority of the food is converted into magic, etc. - could not possibly tell... Unaware of the growing magic in her body and the clarity with which she could speak, she just walked down the hallway frustrated by hunger.

In the meantime, only the brave Leonardo --

"Leah......"

—— He was feeling unproven discomfort in the back of his childhood friend... He seemed to have a worrying gaze on Leah's back.
