"At the time, I didn't know how strong you were, Sam. But now, thanks to you, this town is at peace.
"I'm glad I've been of service."
"...... but I'm sorry. When I reported it to headquarters, they couldn't believe that a ten-year-old boy could take down a wild bear by himself, let alone multiple wild bears. That's why I can't raise your rank."
Melia lowers her eyebrows in sincere apology.
It must be frustrating for her that Sam, despite his abilities, is not given due recognition because he is a child.
She also feels a sense of responsibility because she is in charge of him exclusively.
"I don't mind. I just need to be able to accept the requests.
"But, you know, if you are appreciated properly, you may even get an offer from King's Landing. Wouldn't that be better for you, Sam?
I guessed why she cared.
Melia, who lives in the Barony of Reinbach, knows how Sam is treated at home, without exception.
Melia wants Sam to be given a fair evaluation at the Adventurers' Guild.
She knew that if he did so, he might be treated differently at home, or he might even be able to leave his home with a big smile on his face.
"Thank you. But I really don't mind."
"--Yes. Well, if you say so, Sam, I won't pester you. Well, I'll do my best again today, so just wait a minute! Oh, you're sure you want to do it the same way as usual?"
"Please. Please share the wild bear meat with everyone in town. But..."
I know. I'll keep the orphanage and Sam's separate as usual."
"Thank you very much."
Sam's latest assignment is to take down a wild bear.
This request is made so that the wild bears that live in the forests of the Reinbach territory will not attack people.
Unlike ordinary bears, wild bears have a high reproductive capacity, and if left unchecked, the forest will be overflowing with them.
This is the reason for the request to kill them.
The proof of defeat is to bring back a body part of a wild bear, but in Sam's case, he drags at least two wild bears every time with his enhanced muscular strength.
In the beginning, he would deliver the wild bears he killed to the Adventurers' Guild by traveling back and forth between the forest and the town by himself.
In this way, I could buy the wild bears themselves, in addition to the reward for completing the request.
This is a good source of funds for Sam, who is planning to move out of his house in the near future.
Sam gives the meat of the wild bears to the people of the town free of charge.
Wild bear meat is not the best, but it is tasty.
It is nourishing, the organs can be used for medicine, the bones can be used for weapons, and the skin can be processed.
In a sense, it was a lean monster.
The Barony of Reinbach is small, with only a few small houses in the town, and the rest is just forest.
Hunting is done, but it is dangerous because of the wild bears that inhabit the area.
Therefore, the inhabitants do not have many opportunities to eat meat.
The only meat they eat is the chickens they raise as livestock.
For the past year, Sam has been serving wild bears to these residents.
At first it was only two wild bears a piece, but they were so well received that he now gives them all the wild bears he has killed.
So the meat is excluded from the assessment, but it still brings in a good amount of money.
"Everyone is happy," he says. Thanks to you, Sam, we can eat good meat."
"I'm sorry we can't get it to everyone."
"Oh, come on, the kids don't care about that. We're just happy to get free meat!"
Basically, the residents who want the meat at Wild Bear get together and draw lots.
Once a family won the meat, they were given a break so that the meat would be distributed equally among the residents.
Only the orphanage run by the church and Sam, the exterminator, receive meat every day, but it is a small amount.
Melia also enjoys the wild bear meat with her family.
It is a well-known fact that Sam has enriched the diet and that both children and adults are happy to have a full stomach.
Thanks to him, Sam's reputation is as different as it was a year ago.
He used to be the eldest son of a poor baron family who was treated unfavorably because of his lack of talent with a sword.
Now he is a promising boy with a talent for magic and compassion for his people, although he has no talent with a sword.
Although he is planning to leave the estate sooner or later, he does not feel bad about his improved reputation.
He has become good friends with the people of his domain and greets them casually.
The children at the orphanage love him like an "older brother" and the sisters are grateful to him, which gives Sam a sense of fulfillment.
Sam was happy that he could make so many people smile with one magic, the magic of physical enhancement.
