Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

Tallest building in town. That was the Lords' Hall. On its premises, a tower was built so high that it had a view of the town that the lord of this town (the deceased) may have looked down through its windows and depicted the future of the town.

But now that my husband is dead, the tower seems to have been used for a different purpose than it should have been. Something like a white dome was installed on its tip. Of course it was the Mid-Eden soldiers who installed it. And that's now --,

Mhhhhhh!

—— I was blowing fire making a dull noise.

"Ohhhh ~? Looks like the VDS I just installed is just blowing a fire ~?

In the courtyard of the Lords' Hall, Cortex, who was analyzing Eccleria's transferring magic formation, speaks so without turning a direct gaze.

The VDS she spoke of. The Vulcan defense system is an automatic controlled machine gun, the same as that installed on the exterior wall of the King's Capital in Mid-Eden. Gatling guns fired with cheesy performance, 100 rounds per second and 800 meters per second of armored rounds, detected the magic of the magic formation of the transfer magic from the highest point in town and were firing automatically. Exactly a tower defense system. Even if hidden in the shadows, there could not be any means of breaking through the ceiling of the house from just above to prevent rainstorms of falling shells.

By the way, why did you install VDS in a high position, because it had good prospects, not that. Due to the characteristic of striking through the building walls, it was possible that the horizontal shooting could hit the people of the town, while the bullet was installed at its highest position for the reason that it could be fired safely, because for the minute it was fired from above, it would only pierce the ground.

A few seconds after the firing starts, the VDS quiets down. Apparently, every Eclerian who has metastasized has destroyed the magic formation of metastasis magic.

"You might not have had to bother to find and destroy the Transition Magic Formation ~. Hey, wasabi."

and Cortex with this look on his face as if he had seen even the pathetic one. If there had been any Ecclesiaans on the spot, they would surely have felt stirred up and been attacked. Well, in fact, I'm inciting it.

Such a Cortex grunt seemed to be in the ear of another, although of course it never reached the Ecclerians. Specifically the leader of the old Col parents. Current Cortex Fan Club (?) to Argus' ear, the troop leader.

"That's what we do, so don't hesitate to give us instructions."

"Really? Really? Then take a leak --"

"Hey, I can't talk about S-rank, can I?

"... it's impeccable to pinch a story before you say it all out ~?

"That's rude. I have been told not to hesitate to tell Waltz if he has anything to say. Besides, I honestly want to give Mid-Eden a break from seeing his wife and kids."

"... at all ~. Whose the hell are you working for ~?

Go to "............"

"... in this short time, you seem to have worked out a lot ~" puff

As a result of leaving it at Boreas, the knights who started Algas all seemed to have succeeded (by chance) beyond Waltz and Cortex's expectations. Instead, in this case, it might have to be said.

"So, what should we do? Can I see what's going on ahead of that ray?

"No ~. I just saw a pile of rubble and nothing interesting ~? The Ecclerians, all of them, once they've stopped their life activities, they move from body to body and disappear somewhere. I just told him to see how it went, and all that's left on the spot is a bullet pierced to the ground and a pile of rubble. There shouldn't be anything in particular to gain, so I think it would be wise to wait in the center ~?

"But what about the people who lived in the house where the bullets fell?

"That's right ~... Are you just a victim after all, or did you know and hide the existence of the magic formations ~..."

"... does Master Cortex suspect the inhabitants of the town?

"Well ~...... In any case, there's nothing like freezing to death without a home for about a night ~? Plus, people living nearby should reach out to you. If you didn't cooperate ~... Well, how could that be ~?

With that said, Cortex will see how it works while shedding magic on the parts of the magic formation that were at hand.

In doing so --,

Gah! Gah! Gah!

—— There seemed to be some dazzling spark splashing out of Cortex's head along with the sound of... At least he seemed to continue his work in a way that he did not care at all. Well, Argus, who was nearby, seemed to solidify suddenly with his mouth moving painfully, as opposed to Cortex.
