Chapter 75: Sold a Fight to the Strongest ⑤

Translated by AmaLynne

「Not that he will or won’t win, but is it inevitable that Sam-kun will fight Albert?」

Delight opens his mouth abhorrently to Fran, who can tell that she doesn’t want Sam to fight.

「If the state doesn’t approve of the duel, the story could change. But that bastard Albert is a man who likes to show off his power. It is no different even if he dealing with a kid like Sam. If anything, he’ll be glad to be able to beat the crap out of a kid with impunity.」

「……no way.」

「If the nobles behind him want to use the duel to make their position and Albert’s power known, then there will be a duel.」

「The fight is inevitable……Is that what you’re saying?」

The father nodded in response to his daughter’s question.

「If that son of a bitch left without doing anything to Sam or you, then I guess so. Rather, it was a duel with Ur’s disciple. I don’t think that the aristocrats, who are enemies with the Earl of Walker and the Duke of Ignatz, will just let it go this time.」

「I thank you for your concern, Fran-sama. But, okay. Because I myself want a duel with Albert.」

「Sam-kun. Yes, right, If you’re willing, I won’t worry too much anymore. But be careful. He’s the most powerful man in the kingdom, the man who defeated my father.」

「Of course.」

Sam appreciates Fran’s concern very much, but a duel with Albert is what Sam himself wants.

There is no way he can miss this shortcut to the kingdom’s most powerful man.

However, there was something about Delight’s words that bothered him.

「By the way, am I in that faction? I don’t really understand that part of it―――what’s the aristocratic faction or whatever?」

「……Count Walker ain’t explained anything to you?」

「Yes, uh, but I think the Viscount something or other I dueled with before was of the hostile faction.」

「I can’t help it, it’s not my place to tell you. Listen, there are three major factions in this country.」

「Huh.」

「The royalists want to develop the country around the king. The aristocrats, believe that the country revolves around the nobles. The knight faction, which is not as large as the other two, but they are chivalrous. You should know that much. What kind of countryside do you come from?」

「Barony of Reinbach.」

「……where is that?」

Unfortunately, the Barony of Reinbach was not recognized as a territory or even a family name.

(Come to think of it, I wonder how Daphne and others are doing. I haven’t sent them a letter in a while. I’m curious.)

「What faction is Delight-sama in?」

「I don’t have any connection with that kind of thing anymore. But I used to be a royalist.」

「Ah, that explains your familiarity with the Master.」

「Yes, I took on Ur because she was the daughter of Count Walker’s family. I had no idea at the time I was introduced to her that she would turn out to be such a great wizard.」

「I see. That’s how you and Ur met.」

「Many court wizards have their backers, especially those who, like me, have risen from the ranks of the commoners. I was backed by Count Walker and the Dukes of Ignatz.」

「……that pervert’s house too?」

Sam recalls a certain person and sighs.

「Yeah, and that pervert’s house, too.」

Then Delight also let out a big sigh.

Sam’s brain, and perhaps Delight’s too, had Günter Ignaz’s face in mind.

Sam was rather curious about what Günther had done before, when Delight didn’t say his name and call him「pervert.」

「Apparently, you know how perverted that pervert is, too.」

「Yeah, well, more than enough.」

「Günther’s kid has been in and out of our house for a long time, even though he’s not my discipline. He was a crazy busy guy, not only wanting to learn magic, but also peeking into Ur’s bath and dressing room, trying to borrow the towel she used, and getting his ass kicked by Ur. I never thought he would become a court wizard. And he’s the next head of the duke’s family. Isn’t that crazy?」

「That’s bad, isn’t it?」

Günther will always be Günther.

Delight seems to remember the past, he speaks ill of it with his mouth, but he squints at it with nostalgia.

「Well, it doesn’t matter. Anyway, your fate will be decided depending on this dueling fiasco. But, well, all things being equal, what the hell.」

「Yes?」

Somewhat brusquely, Delight, who had taken his eyes off Sam, cleared his throat and spoke up.

「If you’re going to fight that bastard Albert, well, what the heck, I’ll take care of you for a little bit.」

「Delight-sama! Are you sure?」

「……father.」

Sam, as well as Fran, rolled their eyes in surprise.

Thinking of Delight, whom he had just met, he would never have expected him to say such a thing.

「D-Don’t expect a drunkard. I just don’t want to see her student get killed by that son of a bitch. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not worried about you! Hey, go home already! Fran, see this guy off!」

「Y-Yes.」

For what it’s worth, Sam knew that Delight was also worried about him.

Sam bowed deeply to Delight, who turned away, perhaps embarrassed.

(Delight-sama is a tsundere, isn’t he?)

Chuckling inwardly, Sam bowed his head once more and then left the room, taking in the joy of being taken care of by Ur’s master.
