Chapter 180: At That Time, in Baron Reinbach’s House ⑦

Translated by AmaLynne

“Hogeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!?”

At the Reinbach Baron’s estate, in the kitchen of the Reinbach Baron’s residence, Daphne, who served as the head maid, let out a scream while looking at a letter spread open.

As her colleagues turned their gaze towards her, she trembled uncontrollably, seemingly oblivious to the surrounding attention.

“Daphne? What’s wrong? Why are you making such strange noises?”

“W-w-well, Derick-san! I received a letter from Young Master Sam!”

“That sounds like good news, doesn’t it?”

“W-w-well, it, it, it seems that Young Master Sam has become engaged without my knowledge!”

“Isn’t that a good thing?”

Sam, who had been treated unfairly, had found happiness in the capital city. Derick was pleased with the news of the boy he had cared for like a grandson.

However, it seemed different for Daphne.

“It’s not good at all! I had planned to steal Young Master’s virtue!”

“…So you were thinking about things like that, you really are something else.”

It’s not uncommon for maids to be the first experience for noble children.

Sometimes they even arrange for widows of household staff or estate residents to accompany them.

The women who provide this service are usually generously compensated, and the subsequent interactions are considered positive.

Particularly, the first woman for a man is often seen as something sacred. They might continue to visit or even establish a romantic relationship with her.

However, that might be manageable. Occasionally, there are cases where even though they’re nobles, they’re still children, so there are women who try to seduce them.

Even if prostitutes are hired, there’s anxiety about not knowing connections to other families. For various reasons, it’s considered safest to assign a reliable maid to a child.

However, maids who actively pursue someone’s first experience, like Daphne, are rare.

“And what’s more, it seems the fiancée might be pregnant!”

“Oh! Isn’t that a joyous occasion? Who is the partner?”

“Her Grace Liselotte of the Count Walker family.”

“I see, you have a connection with a lady from a household you serve.”

“But that’s not all! He’s also engaged to Princess Stella Isle Sky of the Sky Kingdom, the granddaughter of the Court Wizard, Murasaki Hualian-sama, the daughter of Sword Saint Amemiya, and more!”

“―What?!”

Derrick couldn’t believe his ears.

“What did you say?”

“I’m telling you! He’s engaged to daughters of a count, princesses, the granddaughter of a court wizard, and the daughter of the Sword Saint!”

“If the master heard about this, he might be shocked to death.”

“There’s no way he could make Young Master Sam listen to that, even if you were doing a handstand naked.”

“I suppose you’re right.”

Carius believed that Sam would follow his orders.

However, Daphne and the others held different opinions.

While Manion might have been the one to drive Sam out, it was unlikely that Sam would listen to Carius, who had pretended Sam was dead and hadn’t searched for him.

Moreover, Sam was already a court wizard, essentially holding the title of a count.

Furthermore, he was engaged to daughters of earls, a princess, the granddaughter of a court magician, and the daughter of the Sword Saint.

Just as Daphne had said, he wasn’t someone a rural baron could command.

“By the way, what about the letter the master told you to send to Young Master Sam? Young Master’s letter didn’t mention anything, but did you send it?”

“I haven’t sent it.”

“Is that alright?”

“Whether it’s alright or not, since Young Master Sam is doing well away from this house, there’s no need to disturb that.”

“Well done, Derrick.”

Daphne praised Derrick’s decision. There was no need to burden Sam, who was succeeding in the capital city, with unnecessary troubles.

“Our master is quite impulsive, so it’s best not to get into a dispute with Young Master Sam and cause a problem. It’s better to leave things as they are.”

“Speaking of leaving things as they are, what about that irritable parent-child duo?”

“I don’t know.”

“I never expected them to leave the estate on their own.”

The irritable parent-child duo Daphne referred to were Reinbach Yolanda and Reinbach Manion.

They had been under house arrest in a room on the north side of the mansion where there was no sunlight.

After that, the mother and son spent their days screaming without showing any sign of remorse, but the other day they escaped from the mansion.

Afterward, the parent-child duo, without showing any sign of remorse, had escaped from the estate recently. All the servants were delighted about this.

“Thanks to them, the master seems to be in a good mood now.”

Carius had long wanted to expel Yolanda and Manion, so he was in a better mood with the troublesome pair gone.

Even the servants were relieved not to be involved in their tantrums.

“However, we don’t know where they’ve gone. Personally, I hope they meet a miserable end, either dying in the wilderness or being brutally attacked by monsters.”

“Don’t say such things so loudly.”

“Oh, my apologies.”

While Derrick scolded her, he also felt relieved about Yolanda and Manion leaving, as he had struggled with them himself.

Especially Manion, who had once attempted to kill Sam.

Derrick and Daphne, who had held affection for Sam, couldn’t hold a positive view of Manion.

“Well, people like them don’t matter. But having a child with Young Master Sam… I think it’s about time for Daphne to visit the capital.”

“I won’t tell you not to go, but at least get young Master’s permission before you go.”

“Oh, I’m looking forward to it! Young Master’s child will surely be adorable! Yes, I must also pay my respects to the ladies! Honestly! In this backwater, I can’t even prepare proper gifts!”

As Daphne was already filled with determination to head to the capital city, Derrick sighed deeply, seemingly giving up.
