After the shopping spree, we went back to the camp.
Mother was in good spirits, despite being alone inside the tent for so long.
"Good evening, you two."
"Good evening, Mom. Look at what we've brought."
"Good evening, Lady Lillian."
I show her the makeup, then put my wigs on myself.
"How do I look?"
"Like a clown. Your red hair is showing."
She laughs and helps me set up the wig properly.
"Now, now… you look like a new person, Aurea."
"Indeed. People who have only met you barely would have a hard time recognizing you."
Hehehe… That's the objective.
"Now you try it on, Mom!"
She deftly puts her own wig on perfectly. I wonder how much practice she had on that before.
"When I was a teenager, I often slipped out of home to walk around in the city. So I used to put those on a lot to be able to go unnoticed."
Ohhhh, that makes sense.
"Well, you really seem very different as well, Mom. We'll be able to enter the next town undercover."
