Chapter 74: Sold a Fight to the Strongest ④

Translated by AmaLynne

「Sam-kun, a duel with a court wizard is a fight for your life. And since your opponent is Albert, he is not the kind of person who would forgive you even if you admit defeat.」

「I don’t mean to threaten you, but in a duel sanctioned by the royal court, no one will complain if you get killed. He will kill you for sure.」

「Conversely, if I kill Albert, does that mean no one will blame me?」

「Well, that’s true… why is that what you care about! You don’t know what he’s capable of! That bastard is the most powerful man in the kingdom!」

Both Fran and Delight are sincerely concerned about Sam, even though they just met.

(Good people, I must-win for them.)

「But, you know, even Delight-sama was the strongest man in the kingdom.」

「You idiot! Sure, I was once the strongest, but back then I was outclassed by that son of a bitch! I was beaten and beaten in front of His Majesty and my colleagues!」

「……father.」

Delight bit his lip, a bitter look on his face.

「I’ll never forget how humiliating it was. I still have nightmares about it. That’s why I try to drown them out with a drink.」

「……Delight-sama.」

When Sam learned the cause of his drinking, he could not forgive Albert anymore.

「Look. I’m shaking in my arms just remembering what happened all those years ago. It’s so disgusting. I’m still scared of him.」

「But Delight-sama isn’t just scared, is he?」

「What the fuck?」

「I can tell from the magic books scattered about the room that you are still learning magic. Perhaps you were planning to win a rematch with Albert someday, right?」

「―――Fuck, he’s got a good eye.」

「Father, then, I knew it.」

「I’m afraid of Albert, that’s for sure. But, as a wizard who once called himself the greatest, I want to take back that title. But you know, no matter how much I relearn magic, I can’t imagine beating that bastard.」

Delight clenched his fists and shook.

As a former court wizard and a wizard who had once been the most powerful, he seemed to clearly see the difference in ability between him and Albert.

It is too painful to want to win and then find out that you can’t win.

Sam could only imagine what he was going through.

「I fought him and he didn’t kill me. Well, the bastard wouldn’t have been able to do anything reckless if he didn’t have power and backing then, but not now.」

「If it comes to a duel, he’ll kill me.」

Sinatra and his son nod their heads in approval.

「Albert was rather hostile toward Ur, and he’ll be happy to kill you, his discipline.」

「I don’t intend to lose in the slightest.」

「You’ve never fought him, so you can’t say that.」

「Now let me ask you, who is stronger, Ur or Albert?」

To Sam’s question, Delight did not hesitate to answer.

「I’m not trying to favor my discipline, but Ur is stronger. There is no doubt about that. I wanted to give the title of strongest to Ur. But she’s not interested in that kind of thing. I thought so, but… I never thought she was sick. What a woman to die before her master」

He spotted a glint in Delight’s eye, but Sam pretended he didn’t see it.

But he did hear some good stories.

Delight, who had fought Albert before, said Ur was stronger.

Then Albert’s strength, as Sam sensed it, must be as good as he imagined.

With that personality, it doesn’t seem like he has a hidden weapon, and even if he did, we shouldn’t let him take it out.

「I’m sorry, I’m getting a little damp.」

「No, I’m the one who’s being rude.」

「I don’t care. So, what’s the point if Ur is stronger?」

「I don’t mean to brag, but I fought beside Ur and saw what she was capable of. I have been in mortal combat with her, sometimes risking my life, and I have fought with Ur as well. I have never met a wizard stronger than Ur.」

「I mean, what?」

「I have Ur’s recognition of my strength, even though she was sick. So even if Albert calls himself the strongest, I am not afraid and I will win.」

「Haha, good guts. But maybe that’s all right.」

Delighted by Sam’s fearless comment, Delight smiled wryly.

「If you’re scared from the start like I was, you can’t win anything. It’s better to be like you and only think about winning.」

「Thank you.」

「It’s not a compliment. Whatever, hey, Sam. Go home today.」

「Eh, but…」

「I’ll think about the recommendation for the court wizard. But before that, what will happen to the duel with Albert? There’s no point in recommending if you’re going to be killed, but if by any chance you can win, you don’t need my recommendation in the first place.」

Sam affirms Delight’s words.

Although it was supposed to be a duel, there was no doubt that Sam’s future would be decided by victory or defeat.

「Wait a minute!」

Just as the conversation was about to end, Fran raised her voice.
