Translated by AmaLynne

「Yes, if you’re going to live in this house, I’d like to introduce you to my daughters.」

「Your daughters?」

「Yes. They are Ulrike’s sisters.」

The mention of Ulrike’s sisters made Sam tense.

He wondered what they would think of him.

He wondered if they would think anything of him for taking away their last moments with their sister.

「Go get the girls.」

「Very well.」

One of the maids, who had been standing in the room, bowed and left.

「Have tea until the girls arrive. I’m sorry I haven’t been more hospitable to guests.」

「No, don’t worry about it.」

The maid prepared a cup of tea and Sam thanked her and cleared his throat, he heard footsteps approaching from outside the room.

There was a short knock on the door, and Jonathan gave his permission, and the three women, accompanied by the maid, came inside the room.

(―――These are Ur’s sisters… Yes, somehow, I think they look like Ur.)

He knew immediately that they were Ur’s sisters even without being introduced.

「Sam-dono, let me introduce you. This is my second daughter, Liselotte.」

「Hi, I’m Liselotte. Please call me Lise. Thank you for taking care of my sister.」

She was a beautiful woman with straight blonde hair tied up in a ponytail and looked lively.

She was about twenty years old.

While the other sisters wore skirts, she wore pants.

She was not dressed as a man, but it looked good on the lively Lise.

「Next, there is Alicia, the third daughter.」

「Umm, err, I-I’m Alicia.」

It was Alicia, the third daughter, who greeted him shortly.

She looked a little older than Sam and was a beautiful girl with soft, blonde hair.

.

She looked a little timid, but her smile was soft and reassuring.

「I’m sorry, Sam-dono, but Alicia is a little uncomfortable around men.」

「No, I don’t mind. It’s nice to meet you.」

「Y-Yes.」

Her father added, and she was convinced.

Only Alicia, who was not good with men, was one step away from Sam compared to her sisters.

She was probably embarrassed to meet a man for the first time.

「Finally, there was Erica, the fourth daughter.」

「…………」

「Erika. Say hello.」

「―――I’m Erica, and I don’t accept that you’re my sister Ur’s successor.」

At her father’s request, Erika, the fourth daughter, reluctantly greeted him.

She was a beautiful girl with flaxen hair cut short and a competitive spirit.

「Erica is fifteen years old, one year older than Sam. She can also use magic. I hope the two of you have a lot to talk about.」

「Father, I’m not going to talk to this guy.」

「Erika, he is a valued guest and benefactor of our family. Don’t you dare talk to him like that.」

「No matter what you say, I will never accept such a dull man as my sister’s successor!」

Erica glared at Sam and left him to say so, and then left.

「I’m sorry. Erica has always admired her sister Ur, and she’s jealous of you for being her favorite disciple.」

Lise was the one who followed up with her youngest sister.

Alicia, for example, who has a quiet personality, was in a panic, wondering what to do.

「No, I understand how you feel.」

Ur is a wonderful wizard.

The family must have been proud of their eldest daughter.

She took Sam, a stranger, as her disciple and made him her successor by letting him take care of her in her final days.

Understandably, you might think this is not interesting.

In fact, you’re right.

Sam has not yet achieved anything as Ur’s disciple and successor.

It would be a long time before he would be recognized as a disciple and successor.

「Please don’t hate Erica too much, okay?」

「I don’t feel that way about her.」

Sam didn’t feel bad about Erika’s attitude.

In fact, it reminded him of Ur when she was in a bad mood, and it made him smile.

It’s not just Erica.

The cheerful-looking Liese also had the image of Ur, a lively magician.

(They are sisters after all, they look very much alike.)

Although Ur has passed away, everything about her has not disappeared.

Sam felt his heart lighten a little when he met her family and was able to think that way.

He felt that the loss of Ur had been healed a little.
