Reincarnated Into A Dead Woman's Body In Another World

"Over yonder lies the structure where alchemists brew their fancy concoctions and thaumaturges test the boundaries of this fair world," the enigmatic woman pointed to a set of buildings.

Students in uniform had booths lined outside with multiple apparatuses and materials upon them. Large sheets of papers and cards, with writings of markers and pens that were pinned to the board.

A small crowd of parents and students watched as a group of students in lab coats and goggles dropped a solid bead of some metal into a beaker of liquid, only for it to fizzle into purple fire and- "Pop!" Sparks flew out the bowl and the liquid went purple.

The audience stepped back in slight shock before slowly clapping in amusement. Another student then began explaining what happened.

"It’s the laboratories," Fumeko figured.

"What’s going on over here, are they putting on a show?" Asobi queried to the several booths.

"The previous victors of the annual exhibition of the experimental minds, chosen by the academy’s instructors, gather to display their showmanship to the perusing commonfolk."

"Science fair," Hotaru stated for Kineko.

"Ohhh."

’The way she speaks... This world?’ Jotou squinted to the blonde girl. ’It couldn’t be, could it? Who would it even be, none of them would talk like this...’ "Crispy?" she muttered.

"What?" Fumeko heard.

"Huh?" Jotou broke out of thought. "The potassium, it sounds crispy," she bluffed.
