The morning of the next day, after a hectic day of dueling with Albert, a fierce battle with a burning dragon, and the rescue of the dragon children who were being held captive.

A burning dragon visited Sam in his room with dark circles around his eyes.

She demanded that Sam serve her tea, and sat down on the sofa with her legs crossed, looking very much like she owned the place.

There was a cup of tea that the maid had brought a while ago, so she poured it into the cup with her own and handed it to the dragon.

Sam did not sit down on the sofa as she did, but looked out the window and waited for the arrival of Magnolia, the first seat of the court wizard who would come all the way to the Count's house for the treatment.

"Hmm. The human dwelling and the food were not so bad after all.

Sipping tea gracefully, the scorching dragon says something like that with a not-so-satisfied look on his face.

Sam looked at her and smiled.

"That's good to hear."

"What, you haven't had enough sleep? You don't look very bright, do you?"

"No, yes, I know, but let's leave it at that."

"I don't know, but I get it."

Last night, I couldn't sleep at all, partly because of Lise's confession.

In the end, I spent the morning in agony on the bed without an answer for her.

(How should I look at Lise?)

Ur, the love of his life, wanted him to fall in love and have a family.

He would never be able to forget Ur, but he hoped that one day such a day would come.

To reassure his late master, he wanted to be happy for her as well.

I think it is my filial duty as a disciple.

However, I never once thought that I would be irreverent enough to take Liese as a partner.

Therefore, her confession came out of the blue.

"By the way, I heard you were talking with Alicia-sama until late?"

Almost caught in another whirlpool of thoughts, Sam turned the subject to the burning dragon.

She smiled cheerfully and nodded her head in agreement, perhaps remembering what had happened last night.

Alicia is a good girl. As a mother, I am sad that my children all miss her, but I am happy that they have made friends. She speaks to me with a smile and does not hesitate to talk to me. There will be few girls like her."

"Alicia, you are amazing!"

Alicia, who is not good with men and has a weak side, is again surprised to see that she is not afraid of dragons.

She had read many stories with dragons in them, and she seemed to be pleased to see them in real life, but Sam and the rest of her family could not believe that she, who had no fighting skills, would befriend a dragon that was called a natural disaster.

However, Alicia seems to be gentle and kind, and is well-liked by the dragon and her children.

"She has a soft atmosphere. That's what we fantasy species like."

"I know Alicia-sama has a soft mood, but..."

You humans wouldn't understand. Even we can only guess. But Alicia likes her not only because of the atmosphere but because she is a good and honest person at heart. She is not afraid of us and sees us as we are. I have never met such a person before."

"That's very kind of you, Alicia."

In fact, Alicia is a very nice girl.

It took some time for Sam to get used to her, but when I told her about Ur or when I told her about my time in different places, she seemed very happy to hear me.

Every time I told her a story, she would put so many different expressions on her pretty face, as if she was enjoying a play, that I could not help but put a lot of effort into my speaking voice.

They are also very attentive to Sam's concerns even though he is a family member who has lost Ur.

This is true for Lise and all the other members of Count Walker's family.

Needless to say, the Countesses were kind-hearted people.

"Mmm. Yesterday, they even washed the children and me carefully in the bath. Her clothes are comfortable. Alicia has been very kind to me. If only we had people like that, we could live in peace.

"If all humans were like Alicia, we could live in peace without conflict.

"No doubt."

Sam and the burning dragon looked at each other and laughed.

Then they heard the sound of a carriage outside their window.

They looked out the window and saw a large, ornately decorated carriage parked in front of the house.

"Oops, while I was talking to you, it seems that Magnolia-sama has arrived."

The burning dragon moves next to Sam and looks at the carriage in the same way.

"Oh. Is there the best recovery wizard in the country there? He's quite a magician.

"You know what I mean?"

Of course. I know that you have a great deal of magic power, and that you have another powerful magic power, and that you have a fetter on the second magic power."

"--Oops. I'm going to have to ask you to keep that to yourself."

I am not surprised that he easily found out that I have two magical powers.

We are dealing with a dragon that is far beyond human beings.

This much is to be expected.

Sam puts his index finger to his mouth and poses for silence.

The scorching dragon grimaces and sniffs.

"Hmm. I have no one to say it to. But I don't like the fact that you didn't give it your all when you fought me.

"I did my best. My body's not ready to handle too much magic. That's all I could do."

Had the fight lasted a little longer, I would have unleashed my skills, but now I am truly glad it didn't come to that.

"You are still a child, aren't you? You're small in stature."

"I'm not small! Because when you grow up, you'll grow up even more!"

Sam is only 14 years old, but he is about 160 centimeters tall.

He is slightly shorter than the average height in Japan in his previous life, but he does not think he is too small.

I think it has something to do with his diet.

The food in this world is not bad by any means, but it is simple.

There is no one who cares about nutritional balance, and many of them live too simple a life for a commoner.

Although I have been planning to showcase some of my own ideas on food, I have not had the time or the luxury to do so until now.

"By the way, I haven't used the skill that cut through my child's fetters..."

"That skill is too useless. You can either use it with extreme restraint or you can use it with all your might. If I had used it on you, you'd be in pieces by now.

f*ck you. My scales could withstand it."

I don't know," I thought to myself, but I did not say it.

It would be a pain in the ass if they wanted a rematch.

Sam moved away from the window and stood in front of the mirror to adjust his appearance.

He is about to meet the first of the court wizards and he does not want to be rude.

As he is getting ready, there is a knock at the door.

Before Sam can answer, the burning dragon moves silently and opens the door.

"Master Sam, Master Burning Dragon, Master Magnolia is here!

Alicia, riding on the back of a dragon cub, came to call us.

When the dragon cubs found Sam, they purred happily, and I couldn't help but smile as I stroked all three of them in turn.

Thank you, Alicia! But I see that you have become very good friends with them.

"Yes! I really wanted to sleep with you, but you looked so tired. But he seems to have regained his strength and has been with us since this morning!

"My children have been all over Alicia since breakfast time."

A burning dragon smiles with a mother's face.

She watched with satisfaction as Alicia and her dragon cubs made friends.

"When you have time, Sam-sama-sama, let's play together.

Yes, please let me join you. I have to go now. We can't keep Mr. Magnolia waiting. Come on."

He urged the burning dragon and left the room with her.

"I can only use a minimal amount of recovery magic, thank God.

"It's not every day you get hurt enough to need medical attention."

"You should be proud. You are the first person who has ever hurt me this badly.

It's an honor.

As he walked to the reception room, Sam and the scorching dragon exchanged light banter, but there was something that was bothering him a little.

(Normally, Liese-sama would have called for me, but ...... it was yesterday and today, or is it awkward? (Or am I thinking too much?)

I haven't seen Liese yet today, whom I see every day.

I felt so lonely.
