There is a person waiting for Sam in front of the fountain in the courtyard of the royal palace.
She was a girl a little older than Sam, wearing a cardigan over a light blue one-piece dress.
Sam approached her and called her name.
"--Mistress Luce Reedill."
"...... Dear Samuel."
It was the first time he had seen the girl's face as she turned around since the attack on Manion the other day.
Before, she and her father had looked exhausted after fleeing Mannion, but now she seemed to have regained her composure.
He and Viscount Riedyll, who is now under the protection of the royal court, are now asking to return to the Viscount's estate in a few days.
Fortunately, the Viscount's family, who had escaped, is safe.
His wife and other daughters who fled with him are said to have been scattered, but they are now all in the royal palace, protected in other towns and territories.
It is probably fortunate that Mannion targeted only the girl and her father, to whom he had once been betrothed.
As a result, the Viscounts of Riedyll were attacked but not killed.
Of course, the people of the region cannot be too happy about their safety, as there were many casualties among them.
The families of the victims will be paid from the confiscated private property of the Reinbachs and Yolanda's family merchant family.
If there is not enough money, the Viscount's family and the royal court will provide assistance.
Although the money will not bring back the stolen families, the victims' families will still have to continue to live.
They need the money.
"It's been a while.
"Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to meet with us. And thank you from the bottom of my heart for defeating that d*mned Manion Reinbach."
Sam wonders what to say to Luce, who bends at the waist and bows deeply.
Even for a man like that, Manion had been her ex-fiancé. He must have something to think about.
"I was rude to you the other day. I don't know if you can forgive me, but I'm sorry."
"Please look up. I did what I had to do. I know it was hard for you. My former fiancee did that to me.
"I didn't become your fiancee because I wanted to. I always hated that man.
"...... I see."
The girl looked up, her eyes filled with clear dislike and hatred.
"It is not uncommon for marriages to be used to deepen relations between families. I too was prepared to marry for the sake of my house and my people. But I didn't like that man."
Luce's clear dislike for Mannion makes me wonder how I should look at her.
It seems that Mannion had been disliked by Luce even before the attack.
"I don't think such a lazy and incompetent man could have run the estate. In fact, he ended up like this after he had a short thought and developed some stupid delusions."
"I'm sure it is. Mannion is not the kind of man who can become the head of a noble family and take over a fief.
I still don't understand what Carius had in mind when he decided to select the next head of the family based solely on his talent with a sword.
It is not the sword that is required of a lord. Of course, sometimes he may wield a sword to protect his domain and his people, but first of all, he needs to have the talent to manage his domain.
This requires a lot of effort, such as studying and learning about the territory.
In this sense, it is not surprising that Manion, whose talent with the sword made him lazy and consequently incompetent in studying and even wielding the sword, was deposed from the position of the next head of the family.
Considering his character, his thoughts, and his mother's presence, he could not even manage a minimal estate.
"I was going to marry you at first."
"So I've heard."
My true intention was to marry you.
"...... I see."
Luce looks straight at Sam with moist eyes.
"Do you remember? I remember the day we first met ...... and I have been in love with you ever since."
