After I taught Rina some of the basics of blending into human society, Lorraine looked at me and murmured, “It sounds like advice you’d give a child when they’re staying away from home for the first time.”

It didn’t sound like that, did it? When I looked at Rina for confirmation, she was busily jotting down my advice in her notebook, a magic item that Lorraine had crafted and given to her. It would have been expensive to buy.

I peered over her shoulder and looked at its contents. “Don’t be out at night!” “Greetings are important!” and “Be kind to neighbors! etc.” It was all written in cute bubbly letters.

They did sound like warnings to a child. I looked from Rina to Lorraine and noticed that she was chuckling. There was a part of me that wanted to complain about her attitude, but if our positions were reversed, I’d likely laugh at her too.

“But, I’m not wrong, am I?” I asked just to be sure.

“No, you aren’t wrong. The people in our neighborhood think you’re just a pleasant freeloader living at my house.”

It was good that no one suspected me, but...a pleasant freeloader? That might be ruining the reputation of the undead. Not that I minded.

Just as I was thinking that, an angry shout rang out across the carriage stop.

“You! Just how do you intend to answer for this?!”

◆◇◆◇◆

“What is it? What happened?” Lorraine asked, turning in the direction of the shouting.

Rina and I turned too. There we saw a young man wearing an expensive-looking robe and a middle aged man who looked like a traveling merchant.

“A child?” I murmured.

Lorraine nodded. “So it seems. They look about ten years old. He’s quite haughty for his age, but... Ah, that robe is familiar. You’ve seen it too, right, Rina?”

“It’s the Academy’s uniform,” Rina confirmed. “He probably arrived in one of those carriages from earlier.” Her expression was troubled, perhaps because the sight brought back memories of the rude Academy students.

It was the first time I’d ever seen an Academy uniform. That was to be expected, since it was rare for a country bumpkin like me to see anyone from the Academy. I supposed I could have seen them when I was in the capital a while ago, but I didn’t remember seeing any. That could have been because I was dressed oddly, so I wasn’t paying any attention to how other people looked.

“That’s a nice uniform, huh?” I noted. On one hand, it was simply a well tailored, expensive-looking uniform, but the clothing also looked nice, from my perspective as an adventurer.

“Yes. It’s made out of mana wool reinforced with alchemy, and there’s several magic circles stitched into it with silk. An Academy student has to deal with various dangers, like magic practice or chemical experiments, so that a broadly useful garment is best. It’s a beautifully created magic item.”

A part of me was impressed that Lorraine could tell that much at a distance, but alchemy was her specialty. As for me, I just vaguely felt some mana from it.
