Time passed as the carriage rocked by, and the day was almost ready to change.

Sam and Erica were finally back in Royal Capital.

On the way from the dungeon to the capital, they talked about many things.

Most of it was about Ur.

One thing they had in common was that they both had a respected wizard named Ur.

Sam and Erika, who admired her, looked up to her, and set her as their goal, naturally struck up a conversation once they got to know each other.

They are now good friends.

「Ah, we’re almost at the mansion.」

「I’m sure the Master will be very angry.」

「…I know, right?」

Sam chuckles at Erica’s sagging eyes.

As soon as we entered Royal Capital, one of the merchant’s men handed him a letter.

The letter was from Jonathan, the head of the Earl Walker family.

Apparently, he had sent an errand to Count Walker’s family a step ahead of us.

Jonathan was furious with Erica’s behavior.

He was furious that she had taken a guest to the dungeon without permission, and that she had been injured after causing a duel.

He was very angry that Sam had to clean up the mess.

He was glad that Erica was able to come home without incident, but if something had gone wrong, she might not be here today.

As a father, he was justifiably angry.

Erica herself was aware that she had done something wrong, so she knew she had no choice but to take the Count’s anger quietly.

「Hey.」

「What is it?」

「Thank you for today. Also, I’m sorry for everything I’ve said.」

「You don’t have to apologize anymore.」

「R-Really? But, um, err, I’m sorry.」

Sam gives a small laugh at Erica, who ends up apologizing for her lack of words.

Certainly, he was not flattered, but what Erica did was so cute that she can’t make eye contact.

Sam is not so ungrateful as to get upset over something as trivial as that.

If anything, it seemed more like the emotional Erika, for better or worse.

She’s sorry now, and Sam doesn’t feel the need to ask her to apologize anymore.

「Y-You know, Sam…」

「…Erica-sama?」

Sam was slightly surprised.

Thinking back, this was the first time Erica had called his name.

「I recognize Sam as Sister Ur’s apprentice, no, as our family. So, um, next time you have time, can we talk about sister again?」

Sam smiled at Erica, who asked fearfully.

「Of course.」

「Thank you.」

「Me too, thank you.」

Sam felt an irrepressible joy at being recognized as a family member by Ur’s beloved family.
