The otherits friends head partially exploding It just charged on and tried clawing at the youth Roland was counting on this and he just stepped to the side, the over-swing and forwardhim an opportunity for a counter

There was no hesitation in his ed right into his eneoblin moved his hands to its neck as a reflex, the blade that was stuck in it getting pulled out instantly A fountain of monster blood erupted, the creature fell down, dead and un

"Well think I've killed all of theuess that's it for the easy XP But do I really need to chant cringy stuff like that every tiuise?"

Roland was standing in the training dungeon, his old trainer nowhere to be seen He had finished the last of the goblins These creatures were captured for training purposes and it would be a shame to waste the experience

"Wonder where that old bastard will send e where he can forget about his useless son"

Roland poked the first goblin that he killed with his ainst weak spots like the eyes but took some time to aim and you couldn't fire them off in quick succession He also needed to chant his spell, which lowered the speed and utility of this skill

"I guess that's why es are considered a backline class Will I need to find ive oblin with his sword as well, his eyes focusing nature

"This one has a monster core"

Monster cores or also called ems or crystals They forredients for various things There was a low chance of finding theoblin, the stone inside this rain of rice

"Best keep this for myself"

He didn't trust the people in this estate He tried returning thea reward, it was just snatched They just gave him the excuse that this was the property of the Baron and would be used for the estate He on the other hand was sure that the servants were probably pocketing things that could be sold for the iteh for me to keep theeon and then quickly left He was seen by so hi further finding a certain thick hedge wall He squeezed through a certain spot and arrived at a sreenery, on the other side was the flower garden where mostly the noble ladies had their tea parties

He leaned up against the tree and took out a small box filled with some sandwiches This type of food wasn't popular here as nobles ed to convince Martha to make him some so that he could eat it on the way

'Toot that going for me at least'

He bit into the bread that had so it While he was thinking about his future he heard so in the direction, he kneho that was

"Big brothuer Rowand!"

He heard a child's voice, it was high pitched and the pronunciation wasn't quite there This was his new younger sister, his dad couldn't keep it in his pants and the ave birth to this child

"It's not Rowand but Roland, Lucienne"

For so for hi place, luckily the child kne to keep a secret She was even super happy when he told her that it would be a secret between the two

"Lady Francine doesn't like it when you talk to ive you and irl with golden locks didn't see Roland felt a bit uncomfortable from the show of affection and reluctantly petted her head

"Ith'sh owayth irl proclai at the sandwich that was in Roland's ave up his breakfast to the child

"Ah, have it your way, you little squirt"

"Brothuer eth tho coave her chubby cheeks a little pinch

"Your birthday, yes it should be in a couple of weeks"

It would be her 3rd Birthday this tiraces he was allowed to take part in it, even though hebefore your mother catches you here"

He ruffled up his sister's head before escaping her big green eyes He didn't want to lie to a child of this age, but it was better thantomorrow and he couldn't do et me after a few months, not sure if I'll ever return to this mansion after I leave anyway'

He left towards his room, he was mostly packed all thanks to his trusted

"Cal o to the Lord and ask for permission to come with you, how can he send you away unattended!"

The woman was quite attached to him, but he wouldn't be allowed to take any servants with him

"Adam said that I will be looked after there, don't need to worry about anything, this was bound to happen"

The wo at the s Master, be sure to write a letter if there is so lad, you never did cry or co, such an obedient child"

She continued hugging hi, in the end, he had to push her out of his roo that he could He decided to take sohten this skill to the ht went by fast and he was ready to leave The only person to send him of was of course his personal Maid that looked like she didn't sleep too well

'She sure loved this Roland boy, didn't she?'

The new Roland didn't feel like this woentle soul that cared for the child that once was inhabiting this body From his perspective, if she ever found out that it was occupied by some weird nerd from Earth, she would probably do a quick 180 Still, he felt a bit sad to leave her here with these posh assholes

'Maybe in the future if I have enough money I can hire her s were ready He waved at the friendly lady and was finally able to leave, the next destination was the train station Yes, this world had trains, there were also flying airshi+ps but they were above the Baron's paygrade Roland had once visited one of these ic stations, the contraptions looked like old fashi+oned steam trains but instead of steam, they run on mana stones

There was no one to send his to the train and that was it He waited there for the ine train to arrive, coons getting pulled behind it Besides transporting people it was used for oods

"Well then, I'll be off"

He otten used to the solitude that this world provided hinated seat and looked at other fas He could see so at the train that was leaving

'Family huh?'

He turned away not sure what toa nap the ride was going to be a long one

Back at the Arden Estate, Ada called in by the Baron for a little chat

"Did he leave?"

"Yes, my Lord"
