“Whatever.”

“Yes? Yes!”

But Cedric replied coolly, as if counting the money was bothersome.

After that, Cedric came back to me with an expressionless face.

“Did I do well, Emir?”

Then he looked at me and immediately made a mischievous expression again and asked for praise.

The difference was so great that, for a moment, I felt a little stunned, even though he had done what I had advised.

“……Um, yes. Well done.”

“Right. Once I learn it, I can immediately follow it. Haha.”

Cedric laughed, just loud enough that the cashier couldn’t hear it.

I thought about it.

‘Right, as expected, I think Cedric looks the best in this look.’

No matter how grown-up he was, his blunt and cold appearance evoked a sense of difference.

Even though it was natural in the original story.

‘Maybe it’s because I’m so used to his personality now. Phew.’

I tried to erase my thoughts. And with Cedric, I approached the other children who were still choosing things.

No, wait, we’re pretending to be adults, so it’s kind of awkward to call them children!

But, children or adults, they are my precious friends, so does it matter?

“Pri, Princess… No, Miss Ninaina. And Sir Nicholas.”

For a moment, I almost called her ‘princess’, but I quickly corrected it to her name.

No matter how disguised we were and even if I only called with a small voice, there might be ears listening.

Fortunately, the two answered without feeling anything when they noticed me.

“What’s wrong?”

“Why did you call me, Emir?”

“Ah, that’s…”

Just like I told Cedric, I taught them both to ‘imitate the tone of an adult’.

It was a little bit more difficult not to show off their distinctive tone, as these two are of the royal family.

After telling Alice and Jake, my work was finally finished.

Fortunately, everyone followed along.

“Pay this hat… No, I’m paying for this hat, thank you.”

Of course, it was not easy for Ninaina, wearing her normal academy student clothes, to remove her commanding tone from her mouth.

Anyway, we paid for our things safely and left the store.

‘Obviously Cedric said that he was just going to buy his brother’s birthday present and go home.’

However, Cedric seemed to have completely forgotten the promise he had made, and was looking around the surrounding wonders with mouth wide open.

‘I’m a fool for believing him anyway. Phew.’

As I was about to take a step forward with a sigh, I suddenly felt a warmth on my forearm.

“……!”

I looked to the side and saw Alice.

Alice asked, smiling brightly.



“Miss Emir, can we walk linking arms?”

“Yes?”

“……It’s a little cold.”

Alice trembled with a slightly blue complexion.

Come to think of it, the only clothes Alice was wearing right now was a thin dress inside the robe.

I readily nodded my head.

“It’s okay.”

At that moment, I felt warmth in my other arm as well.

Who else is this time?

I turned my head to the other side. In fact, I already had a bit of a sense of who it was.

And, of course, it was Jake.

“Lend me the other arm, Mir. I’m cold too.”

“……Well, okay. You can do that.”

“Thank you.”

So I walked with two people hanging on my either side.

The three belatedly snooped around looking for a spot by my side, but it was already a step late.

‘To others, it would look like three grown-up people walking with their arms linked.’

Fortunately, we went to the market today. It didn’t have many people.

And since the road is so wide, there was no problem with the three of us walking side by side.

‘I can’t help but feel a little embarrassed…’

I thought while chewing on the candy that Alice had bought me earlier.

It was then.

Suddenly Jake stopped slowly.

Me and Alice, who were linking arms, also came to stop together.

“Jake, what’s wrong?”

I asked carefully and followed Jake’s gaze to see a kiosk selling something.

It was none other than a merchant selling headbands with stuffed animal ears-like plush.

‘Wow, do they even sell stuff like that in this world?’

In my previous life, it was something I could often see when I went to an amusement park or something.

I wondered for a moment, and tried to move my feet.

However,

“……!”

Jake and Alice did not move as I wanted.

Suddenly, it became like I was sprinting forward by myself.

Jake and Alice seemed to have been firmly hooked to those headbands.

Cedric, Ninaina, and Nicholas who were coming from behind also saw what we were doing and started to watch together.

‘…Hmm, of course, it looks cute even to me. But the problem is that even if we buy it, there’s no point in using it.’

The other children couldn’t pass it by, so I had no choice but to take a look as well.

Then the headband shop owner noticed our gaze and began to sell his item.

“Buy a headband! Cute animal ear headband for 5 copper!”
