The Reincarnated Wizard Who Will Eventually Become the Strongest

Chapter 69: Meet with Ur's Master, Delight Sinatra ①

Translated by AmaLynne

The room was littered with magic books and filled with the smell of alcohol.

The owner of the room―――Delight Sinatra―――was a long-haired man with a stubbled beard, still in his mid-forties.

He was not filthy, since his daughter is taking care of him.

However, it was still true that he was addicted to alcohol.

「…I’m sorry. I told him not to drink.」

「I don’t mind.」

Walking across a floor strewn with books, Sam kneeled in front of a middle-aged man with his feet on a desk, stirring a bottle of sake.

「It is my pleasure to meet you for the first time. My name is Samuel Scheidt. I am a student of Ulrike Scheidt Walker.」

At Sam’s greeting, Delight turned his gaze from the liquor bottle to him.

「You’re Ur’s disciple?」

「Yes.」

「You’re a kid.」

「I’m still a minor.」

「……So, what do you want from me?」

「I just wanted to say hello to Delight-sama, Ur’s mentor.」

「―――Hah, what’s the use of saying hello to a fallen man like me?」

Perhaps because of the alcohol, Delight’s attitude was not very good.

But not enough to be offended.

Even as he does this, Sam is sensing Delight’s magic.

For a man who has been sober for so many years, he has sharpened his magic.

He feels powerful, even though his age should have diminished him.

(I guess he is indeed Ur’s master. Even if he was a drunkard, his quality as a wizard is high)

「……Father, Sam-kun came to greet you because he wanted you to be a nominee for the Court Wizard.」

「Ha? Oh, you said something like that. Ha! You make me laugh! You think a kid like you is a court wizard? I’m not that naive!」

「Maybe. But as Ur’s disciple, I aim to be the strongest. Being a court wizard is just a passing phase.」

「How dare you call yourself the strongest in front of me, kid!」

To the man who was once the strongest, it seemed arrogant for Sam, still a child, to speak of being the strongest.

Sam can clearly see the anger on Delight’s face.

Fran hurried to follow Sam.

「Father, Sam-kun can destroy Günther-sama wards.」

「―――, that perverted little Günther Ignaz’s wards!?」

「Yes.」

「I thought only Ur could break Günther’s solid wards, but a kid… you really do that?」

Sam responds to Delight’s quizzical gaze with a smile.

「In the meantime, I was able to borrow Günther’s name as a nominee for the court wizard.」

「No need to lie… Hey, kid.」

「Please, call me Sam.」

「You’re just a kid. You’re more confident in your abilities, aren’t you?」

「Ur trained me well.」

「…All right. I’ll see how good you are first! If you use nothing but boring magic, I’ll kill you on the spot!」

「F-Father!」

「I’d be happy to oblige.」

「Even Sam-kun!?」

Leaving Fran, who could not hide her surprise, to fight against Delight.

It was unexpected.

Sam had heard that he drank too much and didn’t use magic, but Sam would be grateful if Ur master could see his ability.

Sam himself wanted to see how well his magic would work against Delight.

Besides,

(If he’s really drunk and not using magic, I don’t think he’d bother trying to fight me. Maybe this guy isn’t as fallen as everyone says he is.)

Just as Lise hoped, Sam wanted Delight to get back on his feet if he had fallen.

But if he has the energy to fight, it seems he’s not as bad as people around him say.

「―――Good nerve, you little shit.」

Delight puts his feet down from the desk and tries to stand up.

But,

「Ugh, damn it.」

His legs wobbled and he fell on his butt on the floor.

「Father! You’ve had too much to drink!」

「I ain’t drinking that much… Damn! Hold on, kid! I’m gonna go take a bath and sober up! Okay, you’re on! Don’t run away from me!」

「I’ll be waiting for you. Please make yourself at home.」

「Ha, you cheeky little brat!」

With that, Delight sniffed and left the room to take a bath.
