Reborn as the Hero’s Daughter! Time to Become the Hero Once More!

Nghh?!

I woke up while springing up and immediately checked my surroundings. I was sleeping on a bed with clean closed curtains, and the room was also just as well cleaned up. There was a medicine shelf in the corner of the room and the desk next to it had documents spread on it.

Well, in a word, this was the scenery of the medical room that I have witnessed many times during my elementary days.

So you are finally awake, Nicole.

As I rose up, I saw Letina sitting on a stool at the bedside.

She had arms folded at her meager chestwhen I did it lately my ***** sat over my armsand puffed her cheeks in dissatisfaction.

It was a somewhat childish behavior, but nonetheless something I was used to, so it calmed me if anything.

Are we in the doctors office?

That is correct. As for your condition I suppose I dont need to explain.

Yeah. Im guessing I got poisoned by the drug, right?

Its not a drug that has dependency so shell wake up after sleeping enough, is what the doctor said.

Where is that doctor now?

She headed out to have lunch earlier.

I couldnt believe that they left while they had a patient here, but Letina had been told about my condition and there didnt seem to be any need for nursing, so I suppose that was that.

A surprisingly big number of patients visited the doctors office during lunch breaks, so I knew looking at Dr. Tricia that they needed to choose a good time to have their own lunch.

But we were talking about that doctor, so she wasnt a good subject to take as a reference.

What time is it now?

The second period of alchemy practice has ended and its the third period of practical magic theory now. I am here to attend to you.

Oh, Im surprised the teachers let you.

Letina was healthy, so it wouldnt have been strange for them to have told her to leave the rest to the doctor and return to the class.

To my doubt, she puffed her chest while her arms remained folded, and declared proudly.

This level of practical magic theory is not even worth attending. I have already displayed my power to them on the first day of transfer.

What in the world did you do?

I just did a mock battle against a teacher and scored three consecutive victories.

Oof

Though Letina didnt have a Gift, she had an affinity with the fire attribute and polished her skill alongside the rest of us. Teachers who were acting like the kings of the hill wouldnt be able to match up to her, whose ability was backed up by real experience.

Getting beaten by a student in front of your students would normally break a persons will. I was both exasperated at Letina for doing that and also impressed at the teacher for enduring it.

That teacher quit the next day though. I did reflect a little after that.

A little? You acted like a fiend no matter how you look at it Anyway, setting that aside

It really wasnt a good thing to do, but that was unrelated to our goal at hand. More importantly, this could be a once-in-a-lifetime chance. Cain should be out right now, so I could go and inspect his room.

Also, on the topmost floor of the dorm he lived in, there were also rooms for servants other than students. In other words, the servants shouldnt be in his room unless they were doing the cleaning.

A prideful noble wouldnt let any servant in his room. Since they would only be let inside with permission, there was a high chance that it was currently empty.

Letina and I who didnt get angry when they visited us all the time were rare exceptions.

So what time is it now?

It has been about ten minutes since the third period started. Wait, do you mean

Yeah. I cant let a chance like this go.

Then Ill come too

She replied in a bored tone, but even if she was a skilled magician, she was no spy.

Even if his room may be empty, that didnt mean the top floor itself was the same. It would just be dangerous to bring her along when she wasnt skilled in this area.

Besides, theres no telling when the doctor will be back. I need a stand-in.

You ask for the impossible. The two of us differ greatly in both appearance and height.

And chest size.

Grrr

She jabbed at my low height, so I returned it with the one aimed at her chest. Though this kind of damaged me too. Anyway, there was no time for that now.

Letina, take this.

This is a ring?

Yeah. Its a magic item that can create illusions. If you transform into me with that, you should be able to trick the doctor.

Where did you get such a valuable item?

Uhh Well, I adventured a lot once we parted, so I just obtained it during that time.

Uh-huh.

She stared at it for some time, finding out about this ring for the first time, but then she quickly put it on with no hesitation, ran her magic through it, and assumed my form.

How is it? Do I look like you, Nicole?

Hmm, arent I a bit taller?

No, you are definitely this tall.

Really?

I think I am a little taller but I had no time to get pedantic here.

Besides, the doctor saw me for the first time, so the difference in height that was within the measurement error should not get caught.

Oh well. Ill be off then.

Please dont make your typical blunder now.

Dont call it typical!

I frowned and pulled my tongue at her, then jumped out of the window.

I didnt leave through the door because I wanted to avoid the risk of running into other students. Even if they were in classes, there could be someone who lost consciousness similarly to me being carried here.

But if I left through the window, there should be no one visiting the backyard at this time.

Of course, the possibility wasnt zero in either case, but I judged the backyard to be the safer option.
