Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

Waltz didn't mind. Out of my reach, something strange happened to my sister's body. Besides, I could tell that I was the cause of that, so there was no way I could stay calm.

But you can't destroy the thick Strandia outer shell and rush over to Lucia, and you can't bring Catalina, who is on the planet Ania... There was only so much Waltz could do right now that he hurried around Stranzia as far as possible and went from the airlock inside to Lucia.

As a result, she headed away from the laser launch port to the airlock to get inside the Strangea…. In the meantime, I was watching Lucia on board --

"... you're extremely tired."

—— It was a beatrice to Catalina's No. 2 disciple.

Theresa asks worryingly about Beatrice, who confirms Lucia's condition with a fever and speaks like that.

"Are you sure you're okay?

With that said, Teresa seemed to be pulling Lucia's body floating in a gravity-free space and holding it down with both hands to make sure she didn't fly anywhere. As far as that was concerned, for what Lucia usually abused me, it seemed like I was twice as worried about Lucia.

Beatrice explains the situation to Teresa while she gives her slightly dissatisfied expression as she was not convinced of Teresa's reaction.

"... Yep, I don't even seem to have gone as far as a lack of magic, but I think it's because of the release of magic from your body all at once that you've got a huge load on you? Right... even though I don't know the limits of my health, I think it was similar to being forced to keep walking at full strength?

"I don't know... I'm sorry, Miss Lucia..."

"... Hey, Teresa?

"Mm-hmm? Something?

"Somehow Teresa...... that you're not just oddly nice to Lucia?

"What? You think my concubine is nice to Miss Lucia?

"Yep. 'Cause I'm usually treated pretty abusively, but I make sushi, I act with you, I worry so much at times like this... It doesn't look like we're getting along."

"... it's Bear. Can I ask you one thing?

"Yeah, whatever."

"... does Bear have a concubine and Miss Lucia close together that looks good?

"Yeah, that already looks like we're very close, doesn't it? I want to be in such a relationship with Teresa too, so much so..."

"... I don't know if I can do this anymore..." Slowly

Lucia and I look like we're close...... Such a Beatrice flower garden statement (?), Theresa held her head.

For Teresa, getting along with Lucia was never a good idea. Of course, he didn't seem to think it was bad, but from Theresa's point of view, his friendship with Lucia is corrupt. I didn't think you were my friend.

So if we're not just friends, what kind of relationship are we in... It seemed that neither Teresa herself nor Lucia could tell. Are you more than friends or less than friends? Or is it a relationship you can call your best friend, a relationship you can call your sisters... The only thing I can say for sure is that, as mentioned, we're not "unfriendly" either. It was just a rotten edge.

As a result, Teresa seems to have decided to return to the subject, thinking that it would be difficult for her to be asked any more about her relationship with Lucia.

"Well, that doesn't matter. So, is there anything the concubines can do for Miss Lucia?

"I knew you were worried..."

"You should be worried about that... In fact, since you're unconscious and you're falling?

"That's really sweet."

"Leave that story alone."

"I understand."

You guessed what Teresa hated, and Beatrice seems to have stopped digging any further into Teresa's relationship with Lucia.

Then she answered Teresa's question:

"Now I just have to put you to sleep gently, okay? There's nothing you can do until you're exhausted. But maybe if you force me to wake you up, you'll wake up.

"... Well, if that's what the Lord says, let's just relax..."

If it was just sleeping, Teresa thought it might be possible to write graffiti on Lucia's forehead in order to clear up her daily depression, but Lucia decided to leave it at ease without doing anything because it was just after the big job.

Theresa then jumped the waves toward Waltz, who would be heading this way in a hurry. The contents are that there are no problems with Lucia's condition. Theresa also told Waltz that it was better to stay calm until Lucia woke up.

Such insignificant attention from Teresa is what gives the Beatrices the impression of being "Lucia friendly"... The person (...) at the time (...) seemed to be unaware of the matter.
