Chapter 78: The Families Are Worried ②

Translated by AmaLynne

「Calm down, Lise.」

Günther’s calm voice tries to soothe Lise.

But it seemed to have the opposite effect. She raised her eyebrows and let out a loud voice.

「Günther must be worried about Sam, too!」

「Of course that’s true. It is impossible for a wife not to worry about her husband. But―――」

「What is it?」

「I’m sure Sam would love to see the moment he defeats the mightiest of the kingdoms.」

「Günther!」

Lise is nearly outraged by Günther’s words as he tilts his wine glass and moistens his lips.

「Wait, Lise.」

.

「Father!」

「Just calm down, you too.」

「……yes.」

It was Jonathan who stopped Lise as she was about to get up.

Reluctantly, Lise sat down on the sofa and drank the wine from her glass in one gulp.

「More!」

「I don’t want you to taste and drink more. I saved up my meager allowance to buy this wine.」

「Don’t care! More importantly, Father, I need another drink as soon as possible!」

「Oh, dear. By the way, Günther.」

Jonathan asked as he poured wine into his daughter’s glass.

「You don’t really think that Sam is going to beat Albert, do you?」

「Yes, in my opinion, I think he has a good chance of winning.」

「He’s dealing with Albert Frege, you know? A man who, if sent into battle as a force, would reduce all his enemies to ashes.」

「I think Sam has a chance.」

「Is he really that strong?」

There is currently no war in the Skye Kingdom.

It is a relatively peaceful country, though not without occasional skirmishes with its neighbors.

But that does not mean that warfare does not exist.

Starting with the defeat of bandits, knights, and the Royal Magical Army are dispatched to exterminate monsters that have appeared out of the ordinary.

People tend to think that because of the Knights and the Royal Magical Army, there is no place for court wizards, but this is not true.

One of the reasons for the peace of the Skye Kingdom is the presence of the greatest fighting force, the court wizards.

Although not all of the twelve seats are filled, the presence of an outstanding wizard to protect the kingdom has a great impact on the surrounding countries.

Therefore, court wizards are sent to various places at the king’s discretion to demonstrate their presence and power.

As a result, they have stable relations with the surrounding countries.

Of course, this is not all thanks to the court wizards, but is the result of the efforts of the bureaucrats in diplomacy and other areas.

However, the presence of the court wizards contributes greatly to the protection of the country.

Albert Frege, such a court magician and the most powerful in the Kingdom of Skye, was also sent to the battlefield many times.

He single-handedly and in an instant burned down hordes of ogres that the Knights and the magical army had to form a squad to defeat.

Albert was so strong that his name was known not only in the country but also abroad as a flame wizard.

Albert was a wizard who boasted of his high firepower, and at the same time, he showed no mercy or restraint to his enemies, even if they were human beings.

Whether they were criminals who had no choice but to commit crimes, or hostile enemies who had taken their families hostage, Albert would burn them equally to death without listening to their circumstances.

「I still can’t forget how Albert defeated Delight-tono in front of His Majesty.」

「Right. I was there with my father, and I was surprised that he beat Delight, who was the strongest in the kingdom at that time, so overwhelmingly. But what came after that was not so good. He was too far from a gentleman.」

Jonathan and Günther recall Albert’s behavior in the past and look bitter.

「Father, I have only heard stories, but was it that bad?」

「Oh, Delight-tono fought the same flame wizard, Albert, and was defeated. That’s fine. It was inevitable. But Albert tortured the defeated Delight one-sidedly.」

「The court wizards of the time couldn’t have intervened. That’s how much difference there was between him and Albert. In front of so many people, Delight-tono was burned, kicked, and scorned until his stunned Majesty came to his senses. That was a terrible sight.」

「Magnolia has erased the scars, but the wounds in Delight’s heart will never go away.」

「Was it that bad?」

Lise only knew about the Delight and Albert case verbally.

She could not even ask her friend Fran.

At the time, she was very concerned and recalled that she had asked her father about it, but he only gave her a bitter look and wouldn’t tell her.

「I would not have endured that humiliation. I can say that it was only because of the devotion of his daughter Francesca that he was able to escape to drinking. But I had no idea that Albert had made a pass at Francesca. Shameless to the extreme.」

「I’m against Sam fighting a man like that!」

「Well, wait a minute, Lise. So, back to the point. I think Sam has a good chance of winning.」

「I ask again, Günther, are you saying that Sam’s ability exceeds that of Delight-tono, or even Albert?」

Asked by Jonathan, Günther nodded.

「In terms of simple firepower, yes. I would say it exceeds Albert’s.」
