The shopping district bathed in the evening sunset. Freya walked ahead of .
“...” “...”
Her original school uniform had beco too worn out from the dust storms in the wilderness, so we left it at Grandpa Huata's repair shop and were now on our way back to school.
Freya had taken a shower and changed into a clean training outfit.
‘She doesn't look that odd...’
As I looked at her in that training outfit, I rembered the little incident that had just occurred.
“What… what is this tacky, bright red training suit…” “It’s better than the tight black suit from .” “That… that’s not… it’s high-quality mage engineering… with excellent sweat absorption… But this loose pants thing…”
Apparently, because her school was wealthy, even the gym uniforms were of high quality. So I offered Freya another school's gym uniform I had.
“Ah―☆ Then you want to wear these hot shorts from that they gave as a gift―☆ They'll suit you with your pretty legs―☆” “Aren't those just underwear…? Please, the training suit…”
In the end, Freya wore the red training suit from . And as I watched her, I had a strange feeling.
‘Bel, Maya… it seems like everyone who visits our school ends up trying on the training suit. I wonder if Hilde will wear it too.’
I couldn’t imagine the noble silver-haired girl wearing the red training suit. But I thought Hilde would look good in anything she wore.
‘Hilde might even look good coming out in loose street pants…’
Of course, soone as dignified and serious as Hilde would never do sothing so codic. But it seed like it would be a fresh and cute shock, precisely because it was so out of character.
“...”
Thinking such thoughts, maintaining a subtle distance, I followed Freya, leading the Red Horse.
Because her steps were smaller, walking together would quickly close the distance. But my steps were slower as I led the Red Horse, so the distance remained slightly off.
A subtle distance. A subtle pace. We shared an awkward silence as we walked.
“...” “...”
Step step Crunch crunch
Quiet footsteps.
The sound of Freya's shoes hitting the gravel-filled ground was like dwarfs grinding their teeth as they slept underground.
As the sun set and it gradually grew darker, I made no sound with my steps, but the gravel crunched noisily beneath her feet.
Her current state seed sohow similar to that noise.
“...”
Watching her back, I thought.
‘In the ga, students from the prestigious magical academy mainly appeared. Freya was treated like a high-performance character allocated to each school.’
