Although Erika disliked me, Lise agreed to show me to my room after I finished introducing myself to the Countess Walker girls.

"Feel free to use this room. Also, you can use the bathrooms and such by telling the servants, so feel free to use them."

"Thank you."

"Don't thank me. If you're your sister's apprentice, you're like family to us."

Thank you very much.

Sam is moved to tears when Liese says she is like family.

Sam was grateful to have been accepted into the family of his beloved late mentor.

"That's why I told you not to thank me."

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

"Hmm. It's okay. Hey."

Yes?

"Are you okay?"

Suddenly, Sam was at a loss.

What was Lise doing asking him, "Are you okay?" I did not know what he was asking me.

Liese gently touches both cheeks of Sam, who is unable to answer.

"Oh, um...?"

"Did you cry when you lost your sister? You're not holding back?"

"...... Yes. I was sad and cried. I didn't hold back.

"Then that's good. You are a child, you can cry if you want to.

"I'd rather be with Lieselotte and her friends than with me."

"Your father and mother were sad and cried, but I'm not so sad. It's a little inappropriate."

"Why is that?"

I don't think it's possible to lose a family member and not be sad.

I worry that Lise is the one who is pushing herself too hard.

"I think she thinks her sister must have been satisfied with her life.

"Why would Ulle be happy?"

"She's her sister. If she wasn't satisfied, she wouldn't have died for no reason. I'm sure she had no regrets since she had you as her successor and spent four happy years with you. That's why I want to see you off without being sad.

"Dear Lieselotte."

I think she's a strong person.

I don't think I could ever be like her.

"I already told you to call me Lise. Your sister was very protective of you, but from now on I will think of you as my brother. I've always wanted a brother since I had only sisters."

Lise looked so kind and charming as she smiled at me.

Her smile was different from Ur, but somehow similar.

"Oh, I'm sorry. I know your sister well enough to be okay with this, but I know it makes you sad. It was an inappropriate thing to do at such a time.

"No, it's not like that."

"Yeah? That's good. From now on, you can call me Sam.

"Yes, Lieselotte-sama."

I told you to call me Liese.

"Yes, it was. Yes, Lise.

She giggled when I called her by her nickname, which I was afraid to do.

"If possible, I'd like you to call me without 'sir,' but that will come later," she said.

"I'm afraid not."

"Why don't you just call me 'sister' like a little brother?"

Lise had a mischievous smile on her face as she said this.

"I don't want to bother Sam too much, so I'll leave it at that for today. I'll leave you alone for now, I'm afraid.

"Thank you very much."

"If you get a chance, please tell me how you and your sister spent your time together."

Of course. I'll be sure to let you know.

I'll look forward to it. I'll see you later."

Lise waves her hand and leaves.

After watching her back, Sam quietly opens the door to the room he has been given.

And is surprised.

"Wow............that's the Countess. The rooms are so luxurious that it would be rude to compare them to a baron's house in the countryside."

The rooms were not so much poor as luxurious compared to those of the Reinbachs.

Even when I was traveling with Ur, I had not slept in such a luxurious room since I was invited as a guest of the royal family of the Fire Nation.

Sam wondered if he should lie down on the well-made bed, but he was tired after a week of traveling to the capital without a break, and he wanted to get some rest.

He was relieved that Ur's corpse had been safely handed over to his family, and now his body needed a rest.

I thought I would at least cleanse myself, but in the end, sleep overtook me and I collapsed on the bed.

As soon as I close my eyes, Sam leaves in a dream.

Strangely, sleep was peaceful.

It was probably thanks to the warmth and kindness of the Earls of Walker who accepted Sam, who was trying to forget his grief over the loss of his beloved.

In the dream, Sam thanks the family of Ur.

And in the dream he had that day, he felt Ur said "thank you" to him.
