Sam releases the three people he was holding in his giant arms and throws them to the ground.

「―――They were boring.」

Winning or losing is not important.

It wasn’t even a proper match, to begin with.

There was no point in having a battle when Dolgana and the others had fouled up, but Sam couldn’t forgive them for taking Erica by surprise.

Despite the twists and turns, now that the outcome had been reached, what awaited the Dolganas was a future of slavery.

「…You! If Papa hears about this, you will not get away with it! Do you understand!」

「You can shut up now.」

He gently laid Erica on the ground, who had been holding her during the duel, and mercilessly kicked Dolgana in the jaw with his toe as she tried to scramble to her feet despite her surrender.

Dolgana turned over without uttering a sound and did not twitch.

He seemed to have fainted.

「He was a noisy bastard right up to the end.」

Sam decided it was a waste of time to waste any more time with the selfish child.

Now that he was quiet, he was relieved.

「I’ve got to get Erica to the doctor.」

Sam, no longer interested in Dolgana, picks Erica up again and tries to find a doctor.

「―――Excuse me!」

Then the boys and girls, all followers of Dolgana, kneeled at Sam’s feet.

「Can you move out of the way, please?」

Sam coldly told them off, and they both bowed so deeply that their foreheads touched the ground.

「Please, please forgive me!」

「Please let’s pretend that this duel never happened!」

Sam was amazed at the squires who were saying such things even as they prostrated themselves.

「What are you talking about now? If you think you haven’t lost because you haven’t surrendered, then I’m willing to fight you again you know?」

Sam glared at them, not hiding his irritation.

He wanted to get Erica to a doctor as soon as possible, but the two of them were getting in his way, and he even wanted to kill them.

If they wanted to duel again, he thought, he would waste no time in taking their lives.

「No, no! We cannot defeat you! I admit defeat. But please forgive the slave part!」

「What are you talking about?」

He decides that it is useless to deal with the two who are complaining about losing the duel and becoming slaves, and tries to find a doctor for Erica.

TN: Pretty sure he can use healing magic…

But the two of them clung to his legs as if they wanted him to escape.

「Get out of my way!」

「I-I’m Lizzie Michaels! I am the daughter of Baron Michaels! This is my cousin Lloyd! We were only squires for Dolgana-sama at the behest of our father!」

「So what?」

「I sincerely apologize for not being able to stop the tyranny of Dolgama-sama! But I meant to stop him before the worst happened!」

「But you didn’t. Now get out of my way.」

Sam was fed up.

Lizzie and Lloyd may not have liked to follow Dolgana.

But they did not stop him, even if they were later said to have intended to do so.

Since they didn’t stop, a duel ensued, and they lost.

「No! It’s a misunderstanding! After the duel, I intended to admonish Dolgana-sama!」

「You know, I don’t like it when people talk about things they haven’t done. You will lose and become slaves. That’s the end of it.」

Sam brushes off Lizzie’s arm and Sam turns to leave.

「―――Are you trying to make enemies of the nobility?」

Then such a voice called out to him from behind, causing Sam to stop and turn around.

「Are you threatening me?」

「It’s true. Even if you try to treat us as slaves, we will eventually be rescued. It is you who will then be regretted. I am saying this for your sake.」

(Okay, this is getting tedious.)

She may not want to become a slave herself because of a stupid master, but she is responsible for not stopping such a master.

It was the other party who started the whole「slave」thing in the first place, and Sam didn’t even want the three of them.

However, if Sam told them that he would not make them slaves, they would take advantage of him and would not feel sorry for themselves.

Thus, his options were limited.

「Then, I might as well kill you without any repercussions.」

When Sam stared at Lizzie with a clear intent to kill, she shuddered dramatically.

「―――Hiii! I-If you do that, you’re going to make enemies of the nobility! We will pay you! I will do my best to be sincere! Please forgive us, at least the slaves!」

Although he does not want slaves, he has no intention of forgiving Lizzie and the others for hurting Erica.

But Lizzie is also desperately trying to get out of the situation.

Sam’s patience was running out.

If he couldn’t get Erica to see a doctor and the time just kept passing, the sooner he got her to stop opening her mouth, the better.

(Not that I mind.)

There is no time to spare for those who have harmed Erica.

Sam chose to take care of the three of them.

He increases his magical power and strengthens his body.

He then turned one arm toward Lizzie, who was hanging on by her feet.

「Young Master, Young Master! May I have a moment of your time?」

「―――Hmm?」

Sam’s murderous intent fizzles out when a cheerful voice calls out to him from behind.

When he turns around to see who it is, a well-dressed middle-aged man is standing there with a smile on his face.
