"--Congratulations, Alicia, Sam!"

After welcoming Alicia as his fiancée, Sam went to report to Jonathan and Grace.

They were having tea in the cafeteria, where Lise, Erica, Karen, and Mizuki were also there.

The six of them congratulated Sam and Alicia on their engagement.

They were especially happy for Liese, who knew that she had been about to step down because of them.

Jonathan and Grace also seemed relieved that Alicia, who had been so reluctant to be with the opposite s*x, had successfully tied the knot with the boy she loved.

"By the way, you two sisters are crazy about Sam, aren't you?

Erika laughs at that.

She is right, the eldest daughter Ulrike, the second daughter Lieselotte, and the third daughter Alicia loved Sam.

And Sam loves them all.

"No, no way, Erica ......, you love Sam too?"

The father, who had slightly misunderstood his youngest daughter's statement, thought that even Erica adored Sam, and panicked.

"No, I don't! Of course, I respect him very much as a wizard, but Sam is just my little brother!"

Erica seems to love Sam as a younger brother.

Jonathan and Grace looked relieved.

Their parents' attitude was understandable. It does not mean that they do not like Sam. But they do seem to be a little concerned about all the sisters marrying one boy.

It also means that Erica, in particular, cannot suddenly break off the marriage since it is currently going well.

"But, father, mother, I hate to say this at a festive time, but I don't think Jim will give up on his sister Alicia so easily, do you?"

Alicia and the others' expressions clouded at Erica's words, which she spoke somewhat hesitantly, knowing that they would dampen the mood of the meeting.

"Well, I guess so. That's what worries me."

"Jim has always been obsessed with Sister Alicia, though not as obsessed as Günther is with Sister Ur."

"Hey, Erica. Tell him you're single-minded."

Erika is bitter, as if she doesn't think much of Jim Robert.

Liese chided her youngest sister.

"Well, from my point of view, Günther and Jim are not so different.

"Leaving Günther aside, the question is what to do with Jim. I am going to refuse him, saying that it was not a good match, and they will not force me to do so. But I have no doubt that Jim likes Alicia, as Erica said."

Sam did not interrupt the discussion with the Walkers, but he gently took Alicia's hand, who looked uncomfortable because the topic was about her.

"...... Mr. Sam."

"It's all right, Alicia. Trust your husband."

"--Yes."

Sam smiles, and Alicia smiles too.

Jonathan, who looked satisfied with the girls' appearance, continued to speak.

"Well, I don't know what to do. The best thing would be for me to apologize to him, but I don't know if he would accept that.

"I must apologize, too. I have to apologize as well. I have been too much of a proponent of this project, not taking into consideration Alicia's feelings. I am sorry for that.

"...... mother, I'm sorry."

No, Alicia doesn't need to apologize. I didn't think you had a problem with Jim ...... but come to think of it, I've never heard you talk about him. I had heard that Jim liked Alicia and talked about you all the time at home. I was content with the fact that they liked you. Forgive my mother."

"Oh, no, it's not your mother's fault."

Alicia shook her head as Grace apologized.

It is true that her mother did not listen to her daughter's opinion properly when she was making a proposal.

But that was because she thought it was a good match. And Alicia could not say no.

It's a mutual thing.

You know...

Sam, who had been standing on the sidelines, raises his hand fearfully.

"What is it, Sam?"

"If you don't mind, I'd like to go and talk to this Mr. Jim Robert myself."

No!

"Sir?"

It was Jonathan who immediately dismissed Sam's proposal.

Sam was puzzled.

"I appreciate the sentiment, but what if you and Jim end up in a duel after Günther, Albert, and Kurando!

"No, that's not going to happen.

"Even if Sam has no intention of doing so, there is a possibility that the other party will get out of hand and challenge him to a duel. Especially from Jim's point of view, Sam is the man who took Alicia from him. He would not be able to keep his cool. I can't let him cut the son of Grace's friend in half!

I won't!

(That's a terrible accusation! I'd have enough sense not to duel with you!)

Sam was unhappy, but Jonathan was not the only one who felt uneasy; Grace and the other fiancées, including Lise, nodded their heads.

"Yes, I know. Whenever Sam goes out of the house, he always comes back with trouble.

"They love trouble."

"Ha-ha-ha-ha, yes, well, don't be naughty in moderation."

"......Liese-sama, Haren-sama, even Mizuki-sama."

Sam's shoulders slumped in disappointment at the words of his fiancées.

It was impossible for him to duel with Alicia's childhood friend, but Sam, who had been involved in many troublesome situations, looked back on his days in King's Landing and closed his mouth with an indescribable look on his face.
