"I can't do this because this is the worst home environment I've ever been in. I don't know how I grew up in a decent environment until I was nine years old."

Sam's home environment was not a flattering one.

His mother was frail and had already passed away.

His mother-in-law, who had been his mistress, became his wife, but she did not seem to like him anyway.

(Of course, his ex-wife's child is not so cute, right?)

Even without his talent with a sword, Sam is the eldest son.

I am not familiar with the aristocracy in this world, but it is a general rule that the eldest son inherits the title unless there is something wrong with him.

But my mother-in-law didn't give up.

She complained to her father again and again that Sam was not fit to be the next head of the family because of his lack of talent with the sword.

His father seemed to agree with her, and thanks to the efforts of his mother-in-law, Sam was no longer the heir to the throne.

Thereafter, his younger brother was determined to be the successor and Sam was left alone.

The two people who take care of Sam are Derrick, the butler, and Daphne, the head maid.

They were the two people who showed their faces to me as soon as I woke up.

It was thanks to Derrick and Daphne that the motherless Sam was not alone.

"Well, I've been reborn in such an unfortunate situation, but I'm in a different world now, and I want to have an adventure.

Since I was in a fantasy world of swords and magic, which every boy dreams of, there was no choice but not to go on an adventure.

(To be frank, I don't want to do the promised territorial reforms or make a fortune by building Japanese playground equipment ....... I don't want to make that house wealthy.)

There are several ways of living that are unique to another world.

But Sam was not willing to do anything that would enrich the Reinbach family.

Unless the people in the family had been good to Sam in some small way, he was left alone, a treatment that would surely cause a big problem in modern Japan.

(Well, I tried to do something, but they wouldn't listen to me in the first place.)

After all, even if Sam were willing, he could not reform the Reinbachs.

In the end, Sam has no choice but to leave the house and venture out.

It is not a house he likes to stay in, and even if he had the memories of the boy Sam, he would have no attachment to it.

If that is the case, it would be better to go on an adventure to enjoy the other world.

"But I have no talent with the sword..."

I tried a little, but sadly I had no talent with a sword.

I was beyond dismayed and even moved when the wooden sword slipped out of my hand, even though I had a good grip on it.

"The only hand I have left is magic!"

In a world where magic exists, it would be a shame not to use it.

(But I don't know if I have magic power or not, or if I have a talent for magic or not.)

If I don't even have a talent for magic, I will have to cry.

In that case, at worst, I will become a merchant and make a lot of money by making things from the earth that can be reproduced in other worlds.

"I wish there was some kind of magic textbook, but I'll ask Daphne about it."

When the time comes, it's a good day.

Sam quickly leaves his room and looks for the head maid to take care of him.

She was hanging the laundry in the garden.

"Oh, there you are. Hey, Daphne."

"Sam, Sam, Sam. How are you?

Daphne was a beautiful woman in her mid-twenties with her hair pulled back in an updo and silver-rimmed glasses.

Her slanted eyes give the impression of being a bit severe, but I remember her as a kind-hearted, gentle woman.

Her classic maid's uniform suits her very well.

It tickles me when she calls me "Botchanma".

But I know it is her way of expressing her affection, so there is no way I can ask her to stop.

By the way, her half-brother is called "Mr. Manion" without hesitation.

The maids seem to hate this unruly and selfish bad boy.

He knows that his late mother, who was a colleague of Daphne and her friends, is one of the reasons why they love him so much.

In this sense, her mother-in-law Yolanda was also a maid working for the Reinbachs, but her originally arrogant character was accelerated after she became her father's mistress, and both father and daughter are disliked by the maids.

"Hey, do you have any books on magic?"

"Magic books? I think I saw a few books in your master's room. ...... reading?"

"No. I'm not good with swords, so I thought I could use magic. ...... What's wrong, Daphne?"

When Daphne suddenly burst into tears, Sam panicked.

He wondered what part of the conversation had caused her to cry.

"Hey, Daphne, don't cry!

"Ugh ...... sorry. I'm ...... sorry to hear that Sam was so depressed."

(Oh, so that's what this is about.)

Apparently, he felt sorry for Sam, who was still too young to be a swordsman and expected him to use magic.

She must have felt sorry for Sam because Daphne loves him like a mother and a sister.

"Don't cry, Daphne."

"I'm sorry. It's my son who should be crying.

"Uh, yeah, that's fine, but, so, do you have any magic books?"

"...... Okay. Don't tell your husband, but I'll bring you some magic books."

"Thank you!"

"Ugh,...... why does your husband love that bad boy so much instead of Sam Botchan,......?"

A small voice seemed to be saying something, but Sam was too happy to hear it.

(Now I can try my hand at magic! Now it's up to ...... my talent!)

Sam prayed that he might have a little talent for magic, since his talent with the sword was so devastating.
