 In the small town of Baron Reinbach, there was a boy.

 His name was Samuel Reinbach.

 He is the eldest son of Baron Reinbach.

 But his family treats him unfavorably.

 He is not treated as the eldest son of a noble family, and this was known to all the residents of the Barony of Reinbach.

 However, few of them would make fun of him.

 On the contrary, Sam was adored by them.

 The reason for this was the two wild bears that the young boy of ten held in his arms.

 Sam is in the middle of carrying the monsters, more than twice the size of his small frame, all by himself.

 Wild bears were dangerous monsters that lived in the forests of the barony and attacked people, sometimes even entering the city.

 It is not unusual for a number of adventurers and residents of the barony to be killed each year, and it is also a monster that is designated as dangerous.

 It was a strange sight to see a ten-year-old boy dragging such a wild bear.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com


Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com


 Moreover, the wild bear had no head.

 It looked as if it had been sliced off by a sharp blade.

 The people were not surprised to see Sam, but rather smiled.

"Master Sam! Are you hurt?"

"That's my master Sam. He killed another wild bear today. Thank you.

 Sam responds with a smile.

 Then he stops in front of the building of the Adventurers' Guild.

 A woman in her mid-twenties emerged from the building.

 Her name was Melia. She is a charming beauty with flaxen hair pulled back in a ponytail.

 Dressed in the uniform of the Adventurers' Guild, she was also Sam's receptionist.

"Oh, there are three more in the forest, so it would be great if someone could go get them as usual."

I'm on it. I'll send out the people who are not busy right away.

"What are you talking about? I should be the one thanking you. Wild bears can only be defeated by a team of E- or D-level adventurers who are willing to die for them. That's why it's hard to get people to accept requests to take them down, but Sam kills several of them every day by himself, so the town is safe."

"Oh, come on. I have to admit that I was surprised when you came to register as an adventurer with your maid, and I was even against it, but now I'm glad that I let your enthusiasm get the better of me.

 Sam thinks back to about a year ago.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com


Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com


 He reported to Daphne and Derrick without concealment that he had acquired body enhancement magic and had defeated Wild Bear.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com


Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com


 They were surprised and very angry.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com


Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com


 They blamed me for not running away from the monster when I encountered it, aside from the fact that I had been practicing magic.

 After lecturing Sam for a while, they hugged the boy tightly, shed tears and were happy that he was safe.

 At the same time, they were pleased to see that, at the age of nine, he was as capable as an adult adventurer.

 Afterwards, the three of us talked about it, and Sam said he wanted to become an adventurer.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com


Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com


 Of course, they both objected.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com


Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com


 We were not opposed to becoming adventurers someday, but we thought that it might not be too late to become adventurers, at least until we had reached adulthood.

 Daphne, who was concerned for Sam's safety, was especially opposed.

 After many discussions, they agreed that Sam would show them what he could do, and he showed them how he could kill a wild bear in front of them.

 As a result, he agreed to become an adventurer, albeit reluctantly.

 Since then, Daphne has been overprotective and worried about Sam when he goes to accept requests.

 This tickled Sam, but made him happy.
