“Uwaaa! Ha, ha, ha, ha.”

The day after treating the people of Malbert’s domain, I felt like I had a strange dream and jumped out of bed unexpectedly. I was going to go straight back to the royal capital after the treatment, but my family kept me there and I decided to stay there for one more night.

I fell asleep on the bed in my room, but I didn’t know if it was because I had used a little too much magic the day before, but my dream was very bad.

Anyway, after I washed my face and ate breakfast, I finally had to leave the Malberts’ residence. My father, Randall, did not show up to see me off because he was still too ill, but the other three and the servants who were feeling better saw me off.

“’Roland, your home is here, and you are always welcome to come back.”

“Thank you, Mother. I have some things to do with Mark, so I’ll come by once in a while to check on him.”

“Are you sure you want to go, brother Roland?”

“I’m sorry, Laura. I have things to do.”

“Brother, you are always welcome to come back. I look forward to your return, brother.”

After hearing each of their thoughts, the servants bid me farewell. The reason why this happened was that Mark told the servants the truth after I was kicked out of the Marberts’ house.

I told them that I had been acting to be kicked out of the Marberts’ family and that my bad behavior had been an act, but at first, none of them believed me.

However, many of them changed their minds when they saw me coming to the Malberts family in their time of crisis and realized that what Mark had said was true.

Tanya, in particular, who had been my caretaker for many years, fell flat on her face and apologized from the bottom of her heart for not realizing my true intentions. She was so determined that she was willing to atone for her crime with her own life that she attempted to commit suicide by cutting herself in the neck with a fruit knife she had left nearby.

Of course, I did my best to snatch the knife away from her, and she survived, but if I had not stopped her, she would have taken her own life for sure.

“Young Master Roland, will you give me one more chance to atone for my sins?”

“No need. Your attitude toward me up to now was my own doing. In fact, I’m grateful to you for falling for my tricks.”

“However…”

I guess she was frustrated that even though she was standing closest to me and watching me, she didn’t realize how I really felt. Tanya looked frustrated as she clutched the front of her apron tightly.

Impressed by her straightforward attitude, I decided to ask her for a favor.

“Then let’s do this. If you really feel sorry for me, I want you to support Mark as a servant when he takes over the Malbert estate and becomes the head of the family. I’d feel a lot better if Tanya could watch over Mark. Can you do that?”

“Y-yes! If it is okay, I will gladly do it!”

Tanya nodded strongly at my request, and I nodded in satisfaction. The other servants also said that they, like Tanya, would continue to serve the Malbert family with sincerity, so I guess it would be okay when Mark was the head of the family.

“Then, until next time.”

With the crisis in the Malbert family gone and nothing left to do, I said goodbye to everyone who had come to see me off and left the mansion.

As soon as I was out of sight of those who had come to see me off, I immediately used instantaneous movement to return to my home in Orargrand.

“I’m home, did anything unusual happen?”

“Mrr.”

After returning home, I immediately went to the workshop where the artisan golems were operating and checked to see if any problems had occurred. To tell the truth, I had been returning to the workshop every once in a while to check on things, but I had not done a proper check.

Apparently, there was no sign of any change, and the artisan golems were still working as they had been before I left for the royal capital.

It seems that the fact that I had built a system to absorb and store magic power in the air before leaving for the royal capital so that the workshop could operate without me was a success.

Since there was no problem at home, I headed directly to the Greg Trading Company.

“Oh, boy, did you already come back from the royal capital?”

When I went to the Greg Trading Company, Greg welcomed me with a surprised look. Less than half a month had passed since I had left here. It was not surprising that he was surprised.

“More importantly, I need to check the inventory. What’s the situation?”

“We are running a little low. The Greg Trading Company has begun production of stuffed animals, but they are selling so fast that we don’t have enough stock. We also have a tight inventory of other products.”

“I understand. I’ll be out of town again for a while, so I’ll deliver more products other than wooden dolls.”

“Thank you very much. Also, while you were gone, many people heard about the prosperity of the Greg Trading Company and asked us to hire them. What should we do?”

The Greg Trading Company was now becoming well known as a famous trading company in Orargrand, and it was not surprising that there were people who wanted to work for us. However, the employment of non-slaves was likely to betray the company unless they were very trustworthy, so I instructed him to buy slaves if he wanted to replenish the workforce.

Then, some of the woodworkers who had heard about the wooden dolls came to the Greg Trading Company and said they wanted to talk to the people who made them, so I decided to meet with them at some point.

After restocking our stock of goods, I returned to the royal capital and looked around the orphanage. There was no particular change here either, so I left it to Lelianne and Isha to continue the work.

“Now that I have some time to spare, let’s see if I can make that one.”

Muttering these words, I returned to my mansion in the royal capital to make something, a mansion with servants that was too luxurious for a single person to live in.
