「How is Young Master Sam doing now?」

Daphne, the head maid at Baron Reinbach’s house, sits in the servants’ lounge drinking tea and thinking about her beloved boy.

It had been almost five years since Sam, whom she loved like her own child, had left the house.

It brought back memories of a huge problem at the time.

The head of the family, Carius Reinbach, had planned to give Sam to a related viscount family as a son-in-law instead of letting him succeed to the barony.

However, Manion, who was elected as the next head of the family, kicked Sam out of the house at his discretion.

This angered Carius, who after that hit Manion so hard that his face swelled up.

From Carius’ point of view, Manion, who was only the next head of the family, had no authority to kick Sam out.

Despite his lack of talent, Sam’s character was better than that of his brother Manion.

Originally, Carius wanted to marry the daughter of the viscount, but when the other party disliked Manion too much, he decided to send Sam as the prospective son-in-law.

However, Sam’s sudden departure caused Carius to bow to the other party.

The other party’s daughter was very fond of Sam, and they had a lot of trouble.

He became known in a bad way among the nobles with whom he had a relationship as a father who was incapable of managing his sons.

This anger was naturally directed at Manion.

Manion apologized, but refused to budge, saying that he didn’t want to leave an incompetent in the house.

This also angered Carius.

In addition, Yolanda, the baroness, defended Manion and justified his actions, and the relationship between the couple turned sour.

From then until now, their relationship has not improved.

「The people in this house are really stupid, if you ask me.」

Daphne sighed, remembering five years ago.

Regardless of Carius’ rage, there was no way that Sam would come back, and in the end, the Reinbachs announced that Sam had died in an accident.

At least they didn’t want to say that he had been kicked out due to his father’s lack of control and the feud between his brothers.

From then on, it was forbidden to mention Sam’s name in the house.

However, Daphne and the people of the Barony of Reinbach have no intention of following such an order.

This is because Daphne regularly received letters through the adventurer’s guild, and the town also occasionally received money earned as an adventurer.

There was no way that everyone would pretend that Sam was dead, as he still cared for Daphne and the others even after his departure.

「Recently, the letters from Young Master stopped again. I don’t know what he’s doing or where he is.」

It had been almost a month since the regular letters had stopped.

From previous letters, she knew that Sam had a talent for magic, had met an excellent teacher, and was living a smooth sailing life.

Daphne looked forward to the letters, which arrived at least once a month.

「The letters stopped, didn’t they? I believe it was when he was in the East, in the Land of the Rising Sun.」

She is not worried because he was staying in a country where there was no adventurer’s guild, so she didn’t receive any letters.

The guild has informed that Sam is a very powerful wizard.

He’s earned quite a bounty from the monsters he’s defeated and even the bad guys.

「It’s a shame that Baron Reinbach had to let go of him.」

The servants and even the townspeople thought the same thing.

Wizards are rare.

A wizard with Sam’s skills is even less common.

Just being able to use simple magic is a great asset to one’s status.

As a commoner, they would be treated well by the nobility as a member of the family, and as a noble, they would probably receive offers of marriage from many families.

Carius is a man who only values his sword, but the other nobles are different.

Unlike Manion, whose character is so bad that his fiancée has asked him to break off the engagement, Sam would have been in great demand.

Sam was supposed to be dead, but the nobles were not stupid enough to believe such a lie.

To make matters worse, they wanted to connect with Sam, who was a successful wizard, and even asked him to tell them where he was in secret.

The point is that there are nobles who are working on the idea that if he is supposed to be dead, it is okay to take him in. ?

The head of the family, Carius, is not aware of this, and Daphne and the others have no intention of letting him know.

Regardless of how Sam responds, the more options he has, the better.

She didn’t want Carius to hear about it and let his petty pride ruin the conversation.

「Daphne, I’m sorry to interrupt your break, but do you have a minute?」

「Derrick-san?」

It was Derrick, the butler of Baron Reinbach who approached
