Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

"By the way..."

Waltz inquired toward the three figures who were on the spot at the time they came to the bridge. Apparently she had something to worry about.

"What shock was that earlier?

………… ♪ Biku ♪

".................." sooo

"... I was doing something wrong. Is that a reaction?

As soon as I asked, the energy sisters moving shoulder to shoulder and Victor looking away softly. Seeing that reaction, Waltz intuitively seemed to feel that the three of them were doing something wrong.

The first answer to that pursuit was Victor, who was supposed to be the stopper role for the Energy Sisters.

"Actually, enemies... you know, Al, I was under attack from him for some reason... but I don't like it when he left me, so I talked, and I made a threatening shooting. Shoot the main gun, man. Of course, I didn't mean to hit it, but when I took it off (...) it was also (...)."

"... you haven't really hit it, have you?

"" ……… "" Sup.

"Why are you looking away..."

When Waltz turns to Zito's eyes, now Energia mk2 responds.

"... I don't know if I hit it or not... I mean, I hope I didn't hit it..."

"What's that? You shot him with the intention of removing him, didn't you? I hope so."

Then finally, the energy mk1 opens its mouth.

'... I'm sure that was an illusion of my eyes...'

she and mk2, and victor, all three of them exhaled deeply after mk1 said so. Apparently, as far as they were concerned, they didn't think the bullet they shot had come off.

"What happened?

'I was going to shoot him to pass about 500m above, but I didn't expect the last beam to fly at the same time... The main cannon hit the beam, the orbit bent... I don't know where it flew ahead... But from that direction...'

"Another ring...... did I say Carmen ring? Did you hit that?

"" Maybe... ""

"... you're in trouble"

Before the heavy look on the energies, Waltz made the eyebrows a letter (c). However, not only is the reaction frightened by the reckless actions of the energies…. It seemed to be a reaction for another reason.

"I knew you didn't give up, Altair..."

"Yeah......"

Not just crestling, but shooting at us, too, right?

"Sorry......"

"Well, good? So far, it doesn't seem like someone has disappeared or something has happened to my memory... If Carmen Ring was the only one who was harmed on top of that, I suppose I'd rather call it a handshake, huh? If they say they've taken damage, they won't be shooting for a while..."

………… ♪ 'Pa ♪

"... but don't shoot me. I said I'd be mad about what I shot you."

"" ……… "" Shin

Brighten or darken your expression to match Waltz's words...... Such three appearances seemed as if they were close brothers and sisters.

◇

Then, for Cumulus, after completing the introduction of the Energy Sisters, the description of the current situation, a brief introduction on board…. It was getting late at night, so Waltz decided to dissolve the scene. By the way, Cumulus has been assigned rooms on board the Energia ship only on this day…. Starting tomorrow, I may plan to return to Crestling.

And after Cumulus disappeared from the bridge. Waltz was also in touch with the Atlas in the future Mid-Eden on this day.... No, I was trying to work it out exactly.

"Atlas, are you there?

Waltz talking as usual toward the bear doll that Dahlia of the Intelligence Agency managed. However, only on this day did the response from Atlas not return immediately.

"Is that it? Is Atlas not here? Or no way...... out of battery?!

"Does this doll have a battery in it?

"Maybe. But... you don't think Atlas put in a battery like that that's going to die in a year or two... Maybe it'll work fine for like 100 or 1000 years?

"So why can't we get in touch with the future?

"No way...... the future has changed?!

and where Waltz assumed the worst --

"I'm sorry, sister. It's me.

—— Atlas returns a response.

Listening to that voice, Waltz lowered his chest before questioning Atlas in the future about the situation.

"Is something wrong? That's unusual, isn't it? I can't believe you didn't respond immediately..."

"Oh, you're a little bummed..."

"Hmm. Something bad happened, you feel?

After such waltz questions, Atlas shows a bare gesture to think of something for a while... And then what he said was ——

'Sorry!'

--It was an apology for some reason.
