Mage?

The two stared at each other for a good few seconds until the red-eyed slave realised that they were both in bath towels and not wearing any other clothes. Her cheeks flushed slightly before realising that the one in front of her, despite being very smart, was only a child around the age of 8, and her emotions calmed down just as quickly.

"I am Yu. What about you?" Yu asked in Ancient Santok.

"Grace," she nodded lightly at Yu's polite gesture of introducing him before heading out of the corridor that lead out of this place. Yu also nodded at her before following her out of the bathroom.

Once outside, he was taken by a female servant to his room, where clothes were already waiting for him.

Suspicious, Yu put on the clothes, and just as he had expected, they were too large for him. There was no way they would be able to tailor some clothes for him this quickly. Worse yet, he had no idea how to put on the pants.

The top was still possible. It was essentially a white shirt and a black vest on top. However, the pants for some reason had three layers to them, one being some sort of white leggings, one being what he could only assume was the underwear of this empire, and the last was a pair of black shorts.

"Psst."

In the corridor, the female servant heard a strange sound and turned towards the door where Yu was, only to see him popping his head out the door.

"Can you get a male servant here? I need help"

"Oh… Uh… Sure" The servant put on a smile as she turned around and began walking, however not even three steps in she burst into muffled chuckling. Realising Yu had probably heard her, she instantly began a full sprint, leaving behind her faint laughter for a stunned Yu.

…

After getting help from a male servant and figuring out how to correctly wear his pants, Yu was summoned by a female servant for dinner with the princess. Along the way, Grace also joined the ground as they left the servant's quarters and entered the Princess' manor.

"Good. The two of you now look somewhat acceptable. Sit down and eat something. Take a good rest tonight. Lessons start tomorrow."

"Lessons?" Yu questioned subconsciously.

"Yes. You are to be my attendants are you not? Of course, how will you do that without understanding what an attendant is?"

"…About that… What is an attendant's job exactly?"

"Hmm. Imagine one of these servants, but instead of taking care of my manor, and me while I am here, you both will follow me around everywhere I go."

"So, we are portable servants?" Yu asked with a strange expression that was hidden under his mask.

"Now that is an interesting way to put it. But yes, that is how it should be."

"… Can I ask you something?"

"You have been until now have you now?"

"… Alright then. I will not beat around the bush. Do you have a way for me to become a mage?"

"…"

"…"
