After spending some time with the king, Sam would have liked to meet Stella if time permitted, but she was riding a horse and he hesitated to disturb her, so he decided to go on his way.

"I think I'll go to the castle town and buy some souvenirs for Lise and her friends.

Knowing that they were having a girls' night out during the day, Sam decided to get some cookies or something.

"Samuel."

"Hmm?"

At that moment, I thought I heard someone call my name.

I looked around for the owner of the voice and saw an elderly man staring straight at me.

(Who is it?)

At least I didn't recognize him.

I could tell by his appearance that he was a nobleman.

I was about to ask the old man with the cane if there was anything I could do for him when he opened his mouth.

"Samuel Reinbach, is that correct?"

"No, you have the wrong person."

Sam made it clear.

At the same time, he completely stopped being involved.

He bows to the old man and turns to leave,

"...... No, you're not."

You've got the wrong guy.

I'm talking about me.

You've got the wrong guy.

"But you..."

You've got the wrong guy.

I don't know who the old man was, but I had a feeling he was going to be trouble.

In the first place, he could not be decent enough to call himself by such a joke of a name as Samuel Reinbach instead of Samuel Scheidt.

Sam is a member of the Scheidt family, and the only family he has is that of Count Walker.

Of course, the people who live in the Reinbach estate and Daphne and Derrick, who are like family to him, are different, but he still does not want to have anything to do with that family anymore.

(I didn't think that I would have such a country baron's acquaintance in King's Landing. I was a little caught off guard.)

"Well, I think you understand that you have the wrong person, so I'll leave you to it."

"Well, wait!"

The old man stopped Sam, but he kicked the ground regardless.

He used his body strengthening magic to make a big leap, and then he flew through the air with his flying magic to the courtyard of Count Walker's house.

When he released his magic and landed quietly on the ground, a voice called out to him from the second floor of the house.

"Sam, welcome home."

"Ah, Lise-sama. I'm home."

"What was the queen's business?"

"I don't know, sir, but it wasn't much of an errand."

I don't want to tell them that I was told to leave Liese and the others and get engaged to Princess Rachel.

Lise would be uncomfortable, and I don't want to bother her with that kind of thing.

"Lise, how are you feeling?"

Sam uses his flying magic again and flies upstairs.

He enters the house through the window.

"Yes, I'm fine. Don't worry too much. I'm not so weak."

"I'm sorry."

"It's nice of you to worry about me."

Liese kissed Sam on the cheek.

"Oh, yes. I have a letter for you."

"For me? Oh, is that Daphne?"

"I don't think so. I only saw the address, but it says Viscount Riedyll.

"Viscount Riedl? I've never heard of ....... I've never heard of him, but I'm sure I've heard of him somewhere.

The name may or may not sound familiar.

I think I heard it somewhere, but I don't remember.

"Open it anyway. Then you'll understand."

"Yes, sir. Okay, then."

He opens the letter and checks its contents.

Then Sam sighs heavily.

"-- huh."

"What's wrong?"

"The Viscount Riedyll's family is apparently the family of my ex-brother's fiancée."

"Ex-brother of the Reinbachs?"

"Yes, but I heard the engagement was called off. I heard from Daphne's letter that her illegitimate son has become the heir, so the engagement must have been called off because of that."

"I'm sorry to hear that, but it's not uncommon among the aristocracy."

Yes, well, yes, that's true.

Former brother Manion was once heir to the Barony of Reinbach.

I don't know the details of what happened after I left that house.

However, I heard that he had another half-brother who became the heir of the family.

(He had absolute confidence that he would be the heir, didn't he? Well, it doesn't matter. I don't even remember his face.)

I was not particularly interested.

To Sam, Manion and his newly succeeded brother were of no importance.

The problem was not with them, but with Viscount Riedyll.

"What's wrong? He was kind of brusque, or rather, he wrinkled his brow."

"Actually, Viscount Riedl wants to meet with me once. With your daughter."

"Sam, it's probably..."

"That's what I'm talking about, isn't it? I'm sick and tired of this kind of thing."

Although nothing direct is written, it is clear that he wants Sam to have a daughter.

Since he defeated Albert to become a court wizard, it seems that he had been contacted by families who wanted to be related to him through Count Walker's family, but Jonathan had taken care of everything.

However, recently, with the number of fiancées now four, the families who think that they might have a chance to be involved, have been contacting him repeatedly even after he has refused their offers.

Perhaps the old man who had just approached Sam might be one of them.

"I can't help it. Sam is a court wizard. Besides, he has a fiancée, Lady Stella.

It seems that some of the noble families want to be associated with the royal family rather than with Sam, which makes Jonathan's stomach and Sam's head ache.

"That's right, isn't it? But there's something that's been bothering me."

"What's wrong?"

"It says here that Viscount Riedyll's daughter is looking forward to seeing me again, but I don't remember meeting her."

"Well, I hate to say it, but I think that's the plan."

"Yes, but there's something about it that's bugging me, that's bothering me, hmm."

I feel like I'm forgetting something.

"Well, that's unusual for Sam. I wonder if he's interested in the daughter of a viscount?

Lise laughs teasingly.

"No, no! It's not like that. But it's stuck in my memory somewhere.

Maybe he had met Sam before he became the person he is today.

It is possible that Sam does not remember all the memories of the past, and therefore cannot recall her.

If so, what would she think when she sees herself as a different person?

I was a little curious.
