Chapter 3: Night at the Camp

“Now what am I supposed to do?” Zenos muttered as he gazed vacantly at the passing scenery, pressing a hand to his forehead.

Long, thin clouds drifted across the azure sky. Below, their carriage raced across the road, barren land stretching out on either side. The capital was now far behind them, and they were nearing the frontier region.

The wraith’s voice came from the pack resting on Zenos’s lap. “Do not worry about Lily. The demi-humans will take care of her. She is a smart young lady and will sense that there must be a reason for your absence.”

“I guess...”

“It is, in fact, wholly possible that she anticipated that the Kumil girl would resist and you would end up following her along on this mission. I suspect that is why she gave you the bag with my bracelet in it just before your departure.”

“Hmm...” Well, he supposed it was possible. Lily could be astonishingly insightful sometimes. “Still, we only just opened the school...”

“Lily and Zonde are there. St. Carmilla Academy will be fine. Your presence at the lessons is little more than a bonus.”

“You don’t have to say that.”

“Doctor, who are you talking to?” asked Roa, who was sitting to his right.

“Uh, I... No one. I’m just thinking out loud,” Zenos replied, giving the girl a tired look.

In contrast, Roa seemed unable to contain her excitement. “Makes sense! You’re excited about the adventure too, right?! I’ll do everything I can to make the Sword Saint notice me!”

“Right...” Now that he thought about it, Zenos recalled Lily and Zophia asking him to take care of Roa. His excitement level couldn’t be any lower, but he had no choice but to go along with it for now.

The Zagras region was a rugged, steep, mountainous land, which made travel by carriage difficult. The organizers had arranged for specially trained horses that could take them there much faster than those pulling ordinary carts. The seats were incredibly comfortable, clearly made from luxury materials. In addition to the carriages transporting adventurers, there were also wagons for supplies like food and water. The patronage of House Baycladd, one of the seven great noble houses, was evident.

“Excuse me,” said another occupant, seated to the left of Zenos and Roa. “My name is Jose Hayworth. Are you two a party?”

The boy leaned his elbow on the window frame as he spoke. He was small and somewhat innocent-looking, with orange hair cut in what looked almost like a bob. With how cute he looked, he could easily be mistaken for a girl if he didn’t speak, although there was a subtle cheeky vibe to him. His only visible equipment was a traveler’s robe, and he didn’t give off the impression of an experienced adventurer. Perhaps he was part of the mission’s support team.

“I guess we’re kind of a party. My name’s Zenos. This is Roa,” Zenos said vaguely with a nod, not wanting to bother with a lengthy explanation.

“You’re not carrying much. And the girl, is she Kumil? What an unusual lineup.
