Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

Gatan!

Yuki, listening to the hunter, rose up with a change of blood phase. … an emergency. That's what her expression said.

But the hunter on the explained side did not seem to know why.

"Duh, what's wrong?!

"I'm coming with you to find it. Mr. Leah is in danger!

"What..."

"Mr. Leah, if the absence of magic persists, now he begins to use his body as a material to produce magic. I mean... you eat yourself out of your body."

"Eh..."

"The chronic magic deficiency that Ms. Leah is bothered with is a disease that won't heal unless she replaces her body. So Dr. Catalina increased the magic generation efficiency in her body to increase the amount of magic that is made over the amount of magic that is lost. Originally, as with fullness, if a certain amount of magic builds up in your body, you should stop generating magic at that point…"

"... Always tummy? No, you're going hungry faster than normal people, aren't you?

"Yes, it is. But why all of a sudden... Previously there should have been a balance between generation and leakage…"

"You mean something happened to Leah's body?

"... I don't know. All this has to be a teacher..."

Yuki shook her neck to the side bitterly as she said so.

The hunter, who was watching that, after a little thought, mouths this suggestion.

"... then let's do this. I'll ask Yuki to explain the situation to Catalina. I'll keep looking for Leah. Even if I explain, I'm not sure I can tell you well."

"Ah, yes. Well, I'm going to try to find Mr. Leah as soon as I get in touch with my teacher."

"I'm sorry, please.... Oh, yeah. Take care of one thing."

When the hunter said so, he turned his back on Yuki. And just before I leave the infirmary, I'll say one last word, like this.

"The rear one, it looks like the magic that leaks from your body can catch fire and explode."

"What... hey..."

Gashon......

And close the infirmary door. As a result, Yuki, who was left in the infirmary, seemed to have an exact expression that was hard to put to the brush tongue... It is unclear whether the hunter had imagined Yuki's reaction.

Around that time, the brave Leonardo --

"... not here"

—— I was coming to her private room to find Leah. Next to him, by the way, some Dahlia was stopped when she stumbled across the outside of the room...... Looks like a man gave her a biometric key to a room she can't open.

In doing so, the brave man explained the reason for the "urgency". I haven't told you the details. But before the unusual brave man's desperate plea, Dahlia can't even go ignoring it...... Didn't want to have any trouble with the braves, she seemed to have decided to open it.

"... is it time? It's rude for a man to enter a girl's room without permission just because she looks like a woman"

"... I'm sorry. Thanks for your help."

When the brave say so, they honestly put the spot behind them.

But...... What did Dahlia think when she saw that --

"... Shake it off already! ♪ Dogowo

—— A blow to the right hand hit the brave man's back.

... but it seems that the brave man's back was stiffer than he thought, and Dahlia cripples and smothers her hands. It should be noted that there is no change in the slapped brave.

"~ Huh! ♪ Puffy ♪

"... Um, are you okay?

"Yes, I'm fine..."

"Really..."

and a brave man to make sure Dahlia is safe and then give her a dark look again.

You still didn't like the way it was, Dahlia opens her mouth.

"You're a brave man fighting the Demon King, aren't you? Then don't be so (...) freaked out by a girl that you're not (...) freaked out! Shaky, 'cause this one's getting frustrating."

"... thanks for your concern. Dahlia."

"Yes, no, I'm not worried..."

"But I wasn't frayed--"

Then the brave man explained the situation to Dahlia.... that Leah went crazy, exploded her magic, and escaped. But that I don't have myself on the spot and I've gone wrong with her...... At that time, you didn't talk about Leah sticking to Beatrice's hand to prevent extra confusion, or thinking about Leah?

against Daria, as she listened to the brave --

"Uh... you weren't flabbergasted..." kah

—— It seems to have gradually blushed. He seemed to regret the shallowness of his thoughts.

"Yep. I'm not dating Leah. Because she's a dear companion, a dear childhood friend, and like a dear family."

"... Something fisty..." Boom.

"Yes?"

"No, it's nothing. But where have you been? Mr. Leah......"

"When you're not even here..."

Brave man to say and think about it that way. Apparently he had nowhere else to think of but Leah's own room.

Then Dahlia, who was watching, advises the brave, all the stigmatization of her own remarks.

"... Oh, yes. Wouldn't it be nice if you asked the person who manages this ship? For example... the energy ladies. Maybe you can use the cameras and microphones on board to find me?

"I see...... that's a good idea. Helpful. Dahlia."

"Beh, it's nothing good. I just said what I thought."

Dahlia pointing her mouth toward the courteously bowing brave.

After the brave man smiled small at her like that...... He quickly walked towards the bridge.

Behind it, Dahlia...

"(... Nah, you remind me of Lord Atlas when you look at the brave...)"

—— and seemed to think of Atlas, a homunculus using the cells of the brave... I'm not sure why she thought that and if the day will come for her to know why.
