“Huh...?!”

By the time I realized it, I was in the classroom. I could see red sunlight filtering in through the winter sky. The sun was already beginning to set.

Yes, I was in the classroom, my head pressed firmly against my desk. Looking at the clock, I saw that the ceremony had ended ages ago. I’d spent the entire day on auto-pilot, barely conscious of any of it.

“......”

The classroom was empty. Everyone had either gone home or headed off to the afterparty along with our resident heroes. Right, I did remember a little bit. The welcoming ceremony had gone on for a long time, after which it transitioned to a stand-up lunch party. Once that was over, we returned to the classroom, where there had been introductions and whatnot. Then came the afterparty, and everyone who wanted to join in on that went over to the event hall.

“Hah...” I heaved a heavy sigh as I glanced at the rays of fiery hot red light pouring in.

What exactly have I been doing this whole day? I wondered. I’d quivered out of embarrassment and lost my mind...and that was about it. All because of such an incomprehensible word as “underpants.”

I pressed my forehead against the desk again to calm myself.

And that was when it happened—the classroom door swung open.

“Hm...?”

“Huh...?”

I lifted my head and found myself face to face with Cain the Hero, who’d just barely crossed the threshold.

“H-Hero...?!”

“Oh, Liz... What are you doing out here...?”

The man’s appearance suddenly had my head bursting with heat. I was surprised and panicked. Planting my hands against the desk I’d fallen flat over, I shot up with gusto.

“Ah, umm, you know, err?! Well, yes, you see...! Cain?! Wh-What brings you... here at this...lovely hour...?!”

I was clearly losing my nerve.

“I slipped out of the afterparty for some rest. I didn’t think I’d run into you, Liz.”

“Huh? Umm, you, uh...”

You know my name? I wondered. Come to think of it, hadn’t he also called me Liz back when I offered to carry his bags...?

Cain seemed to realize what he’d just said. “Y-Yeah...sorry. I guess it’s creepy to suddenly call you by a nickname when we’ve only just met. Well, here’s to a long and lasting acquaintanceship, Lady Lisalinde.”

“Oh, no... I don’t really mind whatever you call me... But how do you know my name to begin with?”

Liz was a nickname only used by people who were quite close to me. Not that I really minded if others used it too.

Cain scratched at his hair awkwardly. “Oh, that...” he said. “Well, you know... I heard it from the teaching staff. They said you’re from a noble house with a long history, and seeing as we were going to be classmates, I thought I should remember it.”

“I...see...”

For some reason, that sounded like a poorly constructed excuse, but I simply didn’t know how to respond. I mean, it wasn’t like I could think of any other reason why he’d know my name.

“Um! So, err! Sir Cain...!” I loudly blurted out his name. “It’s not what you think.
