Summary
Wendelin keeps continuing his magic training with Alfred in secret before graduating from his lessons. Although the while Alfred learns of extraordinarily high magic capacity even able to perform flight magic, Wendelin notices Alfred's unusual symptoms such as cold skin, no sense of taste and bouts of pain.

Meanwhile at dinner at the Baumeister Household, Wendelin announces to his family that he wants to be an adventurer and will work to pay his own tuition for the Adventurers Academy. This announcement drops Kurt's suspicion who already notices Wendelin’s strange behaviour due to his magic-training attempts. Wendelin becomes disturbed from the next topic from Wendelin’s father about a rumour of a Whispering Dead in the forest. This made Wendelin realize he means Alfred (explaining the symptoms) and confronts him. Alfred admits he is dead but resurrects as a Whispering Dead to pass on his knowledge to an apprentice. Having done so, he teaches Wendelin holy magic to purify him to the afterlife. A saddened Wendelin performs the deed and bidding farewell to his master, and leaves his family to become an adventurer years later.
