I'm sorry to have to tell you such a trivial story, but I'm counting on you. By the way, I hear you're engaged to Count Walker's daughter Lieselotte.

"Yes. I am happy to have made a match with such a wonderful person.

I had no idea that the engagement to Lise had reached the King's ears.

"I have also heard about Lieselotte. You should love her as much as you can, after a marriage that was never a good one.

"Yes. I will make Liese-sama happy.

That's good. I have known her since she was a little girl, and I wish her all the happiness in the world.

"Thank you."

Sam bowed his head.

He thanked the king for wishing Lise happiness, and at the same time, he resolved once again to make her happy.

"By the way, I also heard that you are going to meet Magnolia's grandson soon."

"Well, I don't know how it happened," he said.

He also seems to know about Magnolia.

Clyde smiles at Sam's troubled face.

"Hmmm, Magnolia. You're quite skillful. There."

(What? What do you mean, "there"? I have a very bad feeling about this!)

"You will also have to arrange a marriage with my daughter."

"--Yes?"

"Mm. That's a good answer.

"Because it's not! --Oh, I'm sorry. I was just being myself."

I apologize in haste for my reflexive retort.

But please understand that I am being honest.

I don't understand why, in the course of this story, I am going to have an arranged marriage with the king's daughter, the princess. I don't want to.

"Good, good, you will be father and son, so you should be easy to deal with. Yes, I will call you Sam. Is that all right with you?"

Yes, yes, please, call me.

"Well, Sam. I'd like to talk to you about my daughter Stella.

No, sir, one moment, please!

"What? --You are not satisfied with my daughter?

"No, no! That's not what I meant."

I was joking. Don't panic.

(Can you please stop joking! I was so scared because you suddenly snapped! I mean, you're surprisingly easygoing, this king.)

I'm baffled that I've just been engaged to be arranged with the granddaughter of Magnolia, but the mere thought of arranging a marriage with a princess makes me sick to my stomach.

(In the first place, there's the difference in status between a commoner and a princess... Okay, I'll use that as a reason to avoid it somehow!)

"Well, I'm sorry to make you an offer, but my status is not commensurate with that of the princess."

"Really?"

"As you may know, I come from a country baron's family. And I'm a commoner now that we've severed our ties. I'm not a princess.

Sam bows his head and pleads his case, but his mouth is set in a sly grin.

He was convinced that he had succeeded in using his status difference as an excuse.

But..,

"What are you talking about? You're a court wizard now, and I'm giving you a countship. It's a good match.

The king's words made Sam look desperate and hopeless.

(Oh my God, that's right!)

"Yes, yes, yes, but still..."

"Sam. I can understand how you feel. Building a harem is sometimes envied, but it can be quite exhausting."

"The king?"

"When you favor one side, the other side gets on your nerves. It's the same with the night life and the children. The slightest thing can cause a conflict."

(Because it isn't!) All I'm saying is, just let Liese-sama be the only one! Let us have our lovey-dovey honeymoon! I don't want two or three wives! (I only want Master Liese!)

"No, you see, that's not what I'm saying, I'm saying that I'm fine with marrying just one person."

"No."

"I'm sure..."

After Magnolia, even the king suggested that they have an arranged marriage, and Sam sighed heavily, unable to hide it any longer.
