Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

"For now, let's bury it deep in the ground, shall we? Or in satellite orbit or at the bottom of a trench like you can't find a deprexa..."

"You don't have to go that far, maybe you'll be fine ~..."

"I hope so... Aren't you worried?

Now the bay they were in was where the goddess Deprexa was hiding her castle (Crestling). Because of this, Waltz didn't seem to feel that if he buried Macrophage 3 in the land, he would be found by Deprexa.

Cortex, on the other hand, who first raised that concern, didn't seem as worried about it as Waltz did. There was this reason.

"If you're worried, let's give it a try ~?

"" "Try?

"That's right. Try it. All you have to do is bury something appropriate in the place you plan to bury Macrophage No. 3, and let it jump in time first to see if you can make it back to this era safely. … well, if you can, it would be a good idea for Deplexa to bury the product that we have lost and that doesn't hurt or itch."

After I said that, Cortex pointed his finger--

"Oh, yes! How about that ~?

—— It was an ultra-high purity Orihalcon crystal made in large quantities by Lucia.

"If something like that was rolling around there, you'd definitely want to pick it up. At least, I pick it up and analyze it. If you know the value, you will definitely treat it as a national treasure item. But if no one picked it up ~... that would prove that the spot was safe.... I think so, how about ~?

Waltz nods convincingly at Cortex's suggestion that

"I see...... yeah. Isn't that good? If someone picked it up, without Lucia or Amber's magic, I think it would be a treasure rot, and even if Deprexa picked it up, maybe one or two would be fine. And because it's a high-purity orihalcon, it doesn't seem to deteriorate or anything like that..."

When Waltz concluded so, he turned his gaze to Lucia.

"... so that's good? Lucia."

"Yeah. So you just need to dig a hole to hide it around there?

"Right. In the meantime, about 200m?

"Whoa!

"" "(200 m is…)" "

"... yeah?

"" "………" "sieve

Lucia exercised her earthly magic toward the ground while those who were there turned their gaze just to say what the sisters were talking about. At that moment, the ground that was at the tip of her hand, about 50 m in diameter and 200 m in depth, is worn cylindrically without sound.

"Exactly!

"Yeah!"

To make sure we don't mind the gaze from those around us, or after the two of us turn a grin on each other... Waltz and Lucia slowly threw in the unchanted orihalcon crystals into it, standing on the edge of the big hole they had just worn.

The Orihalcon crystals thrown into the hole, with the effect of Waltz's gravitational control system, fall slowly and wear bottom to avoid cracking. And it was buried about another 10 cm into the ground from there. Because if you bury the crystals at the same depth position as the bottom of the hole, the earthly magic by Lucia earlier will give you the possibility to disappear (gone).... Especially since if you jump at a level of thousands of years, your position should be slightly off due to crust fluctuations, so maybe you can call it a less meaningful behavior.

And the rest came to the point where Lucia threw a time-lapse artifact into the hole. If it falls freely and wears bottom, and the impact is applied, the artifact should at that point crack shatteringly and activate the effect of a time leap.

"... by the way, Amber"

"What is it?

"How much is the scope of the effect?

"Range……. When we used the artifact, we were only looking to see if the two of us, me and Amber, could jump, so about the range, I don't know a bit. But I don't think it's very broad, do you? The desk I had in front of me before I jumped didn't jump with me..."

"Oh, yeah... so, are you okay?

to the Waltz word ——

"... Really?

—— Lucia with just a few worrying reactions.

Waltz held such a sister's hand.

"Well, when you throw, why don't you hold hands and throw with me? This should mean that in the worst case scenario, me and Lucia will be flown in the same time... well, you can handle it"

"... yeah. Thank you, sister."

And ——

"" Shh!

—— Lucia and Waltz threw the artifact in their hands into a deep hole.

In the middle of the fall, the artifact was guided by Waltz's gravitational control system and fell near the already buried Orihalcon crystal. The time from the start of the fall to the bottom of the garment is approximately 7 seconds. I'm not sure that was short or long for Lucia and the others.

The only thing I can say is -- the result was to create a confusion for those who were there that was not to be expected.
