His dual identity as a handyman and adventurer blurred with time, as he carried on with these pursuits until he neared his thirties. One fateful day, while scouring the mountains for herbs, he happened upon a forsaken child and made the decision to adopt her as his own. Years passed by, and his daughter grew up with a genuine passion for adventure, likely instilled in her by her father.

Despite our protagonist's ongoing role as a rural pseudo-adventurer, his daughter had become a distinguished S-Class adventurer and had not returned home in five years.
