"Master Sam!"

"Sam!"

"Kyuuurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!"

Alicia, Lise, and the little dragons came rushing toward Sam from behind.

"Alicia-sama, Lise-sama!"

Sam rushed to them as well.

The little dinosaurs rub their heads against him, and he pats them, saying that they did a good job.

"squeal squeal squeal squeal squeal!"

Sam's shoulders relax with relief that the battle is over.

"Uh-uh."

"Master Jim!"

Jim, who had been lying on the ground, slowly got up with a grunt.

Sam and the others approach him and call out to him.

"Mr. Jim, are you all right?

"Don't worry. The wound is nothing serious. But I didn't think that just being cut would rob you of your magic and strength. ...... Magic swords are terrifying things."

"Yes, it is. But I'm glad that I only lost my magic and strength.

"I agree with you. Besides, it's probably because Sam broke the sword. Not all of my magic power and strength came back. Thanks to that, I can move like this.

Sam and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

Jim, on his feet, seemed unaffected.

He has a laceration from the sword, but that is all.

Sam bowed his head to Jim.

"Thank you for protecting Count Walker, Alicia, and the others while I was gone.

"No, I wasn't much help. No, I'm sorry I wasn't much help.

He must regret having fallen behind Mannion. His complexion is dark.

Even though he had a magic sword, Mannion's movements were those of an amateur.

Jim felt ashamed that he had been hit by such a human.

But then Alicia spoke up.

No, Jim fought for us! Jim doesn't need to apologize! We owe you our thanks. --Thank you, Jim.

Alicia's voice is filled with gratitude, bringing tears to Jim's eyes.

"Yes, I know. Thank you, Jim. Thanks to you, we're safe."

"Not even Liese-sama."

"Jim, thank you for your courage."

"...... aunt. No, I'm really glad you guys are okay."

Jim looks embarrassed when Lise and Grace thank him as well.

"Sam-sama, are you okay?"

"Lady Alicia? Yeah, I'm not really hurt.

"No, no, it's not that, it's just that ...... your brother..."

"--Oh."

Alicia voiced her concern for Sam, and Liese and the others turned their attention to him.

I could tell that everyone was concerned and worried about Sam.

"I don't mean to sound cold, but you got what you deserved."

"I see."

Alicia looked puzzled as to what to make of Sam's simple response.

Should she be genuinely happy for Sam's safety, or should she mourn the death of Manion, who had been her brother?

However, Sam does not think that Alicia needs to grieve for Manion.

She is lucky that she was able to protect him, but in a worst case scenario, Manion could have harmed her.

Alicia is being kind, but she should not take her feelings to Manion.

"Manion Reinbach,...... I've exchanged words with him, and I heard his conversation with Sam, but he was a poor child."

"Yes, it's pathetic."

"Can we leave that mother alone?"

"Well, what should we do? She is a mother who has lost her son, though she was a part of the crime. I don't know how to talk to her.

Sam and Jim look troubled.

Yolanda had committed a crime that could not be undone, but now it seemed too much to blame her.

She could never have any good feelings, but Yolanda was the only one who could truly grieve Manion's death.

(I'll leave her alone until the Masters arrive to help.)

He could not leave them alone, but it was the least Sam could do to leave them alone for a while.

Then Yolanda, who had been lying on her face, looked up and saw Sam.

No, she glared at him.

"Samuel ahhhhhhh!"

"--Yolanda."

"Because of you, because of you, Manion is dead! What are you doing! You were supposed to use her to make a good living! You could have been royalty! Take responsibility!"

"...... You people are still the same after the death of your son."

Sam was disgusted by Yolanda and felt sorry for Manion, whose mother had not been saddened by his death.

He did not expect her to mourn the loss of her own interests at this point in her life.

She wondered if it was a mother who would mourn the loss of her own gain by taking advantage of Manion, instead of genuinely mourning her son's death.

"Yes! It's your fault, now pay up! You killed Mannion and you will pay for it! And get me a house and servants! You're a count now, you should have no problem with that!"

What are you doing?

"You feed me instead of Manion! You killed Manion, you'll get that much!"

"This is ridiculous. I don't have the right to do this. I mean, you're not grieving for Manion, are you?"

"I'm grieving! Who's going to bring me the money when she's gone?

"...... you're a mother. Don't you have anything better to do?"

"Of course there is! I can't take your fiancee away from you anymore, I can't even get you to marry the princess! My whole plan is over!"

(No. I can't talk about this. I'm wasting my time talking to this woman.)

"You're a terrible mother. I can't believe it."

"...... is not very sane, but it's insane."

"Sam, do not listen to the words of a woman like this."

Jim, Lise, and Grace showed their clear disgust at Yolanda's words and actions.

Sam, too, decided to stop dealing with Yolanda and turned his back on her.

Just then, Alicia moved.

"Alicia-sama?"

As soon as Sam's question came to her mind, she walked up to Yolanda, her eyes filled with tears and her arms flailing wide.

--Pang!

"Oh, Alicia-sama!"

Sam and everyone else present turned to see Alicia in action.

Alicia had slapped Yolanda across the cheek.

Alicia, that gentle and kind-hearted person with a reserved personality, had slapped Yolanda on the cheek.

To Yolanda's surprise, Alicia shouted louder than ever as she held Yolanda's cheek.

"That's enough!"
