"Of course not!"
When Sam told Daphne that he would be leaving Baron Reinbach tomorrow, he was naturally met with fierce opposition.
How could a ten year old man do such a thing before he comes of age? I'll go protest to the Master myself!"
"Wait, wait, wait! It's not like that man told me to leave."
"Not your husband? So you're his wife?"
No, it's Manion.
"--that little shit."
Finally, not even his brother's name escaped Daphne's well-defined lips.
His temples seem to be drawn together.
He must be very angry.
Sam tries to calm Daphne down for the moment.
"I'm not leaving because Manion told me to. You know Daphne has wanted me out of this house for a long time, don't you?"
That's... yes. I know that.
"I was thinking of staying home until I'm an adult, but I figured I don't have to wait another five years."
"But those five years are important! I've never even heard of a ten-year-old being an adventurer on his own!"
"But you're doing well so far."
"Yes, that's true, but that doesn't mean it won't continue to work! When you leave the barony, you will find strange monsters. Sometimes you may even have to fight humans!"
I'm ready for that."
Sam is no fool.
He knows that this other world is not just about fighting monsters with swords and magic.
There are also criminals, bandits, and adventurers who do evil.
Sometimes you may even have to take a human life.
Sam is prepared for all of this and tries to stand on his own feet.
He is grateful for Daphne's concern.
There is no one who is more kind to me than she is to herself.
That is why it was hard for me to worry her and to make her sad.
Still, it does not change the fact that I want to leave this house.
"But that doesn't mean I can send her off with a 'yes'!"
"Daphne."
"Sam, don't bother me too much."
"I don't want to be in this house for another five years."
"--!"
Daphne chokes up at Sam's words.
"My father doesn't care about me, and my mother-in-law treats me like an obstacle. My half-brother doesn't even recognize me as his brother. ...... Do I have to endure five more years of that?"
"...... that's..."
"I don't want to stay in this house for five years while they make fun of me. I'll miss Daphne and the boys, but if I don't go now, when will I go?"
Daphne began to shed tears as she told Sam how she really felt.
I know I'm being unfair.
She knows that Daphne, who has always been there for her, is sincerely concerned about her, but she puts her own needs first.
"I'm sorry, Daphne. You have been so good to me and I have made you sad.
With a heartfelt apology, she embraces the thin body of her benefactor, who has treated her like a mother and sister.
Daphne also hugged Sam's small body tightly.
"--I'm sure that the best thing you can do for Botchana is to get out of this house. I understand. I won't stop you now, Daphne, if you have to go through that.
"Thank you."
"But, sir! Please report your survival regularly. Let this Daphne know that you are alive and reassure her."
"Okay. I'll send you regular letters."
We will miss you.
Daphne's arms tighten in a hug.
Sam hugged her tightly, trying to never forget her warmth.
"Me too, Daphne."
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
