"It's quite a life you've led, Sam."
When I finished telling him everything except that I had been reincarnated, Ulle, with a wry smile on his face, expressed such an impression.
"You're a big jerk, sir."
He was born the eldest son of a baron in the countryside, but he was unable to become heir because of his lack of talent with a sword, and was forced out of his home by his half-brother.
However, Sam told him that he was happy with his situation.
Ur laughed at Sam and said, "You are strange.
"But the Baroness Reinbach, I have never heard of her.
"Well, he's a country aristocrat."
"I see. By the way, what are you going to do now, Sam?"
"I'm a registered adventurer, so I'm going to save up some money and move around after a while."
"What a childish and unassuming goal. Don't you have any more plans to become a big shot, or to look back on the people at home?"
"Not particularly."
So what's your purpose in moving from place to place?
I just want to see the world.
"--Oh! You're just like me!"
Ur's eyes light up with joy at Sam's answer.
"Are you, too, Ur?"
"Yes! I'm also on a journey to see different parts of the world and to acquire different kinds of magic from all over the world."
"All the magic in the world?"
Don't you think you could use a little magic yourself? I want to learn and acquire as much magic as I can and climb to the heights of a wizard."
"I think so!"
"I knew you would say that. You are somewhat like me. Maybe that's why you found me, because we are on the same wavelength.
Ur shakes his red hair and looks pleased, as if he has found a comrade.
Sam, too, was happy to meet someone who wanted to see the world as much as he did.
"Oh, but I don't know if I have a talent for magic. At best I can only do body enhancement magic.
"It's surprisingly difficult to use body enhancement because it's so simple. Well, it's a good thing we're on the same page. I'll do the for you....
A magic circle floats in Ur's right eye as he turns to look at us.
Sam felt as if he were being watched from the inside.
After a while, Ur growled a little.
"I never thought I'd meet you here..."
"Um, Mr. Ur?"
"Boy! No, Sam!"
"What, yes?"
Ur suddenly grabs me by both shoulders, and her face is so close to mine that our lips almost touch if I'm not careful.
"You may not be as good as me, but you have exceptional magic and magical talent!
"Really?
"Of course. I would never tell you a lie. And I have more good news for you, talented boy!
"Good news?"
"Rejoice! Ur-Scheidt here will make Sam his apprentice!"
"Yes?"
Good. That's a good answer."
Wait a minute, that wasn't a reply, I was just confused and asked back.
Ulle leaves Sam flustered by the sudden offer of an apprenticeship, and proceeds to tell his story.
His momentum was so great that Sam had no way to stop him.
"From now on, you can call yourself Sam Scheidt!
"Wait, Mr. Ur! Wait, please wait!"
"I have been looking for someone who could succeed me. Someone talented enough to inherit all the magic I've learned.
No, no way, that's...
Yes. That's you, Sam!
I can't even afford to be excited when a well-dressed face is so close to me.
My heart beats faster.
But it's not because Ur's face is so close.
"Do I have that kind of talent?"
The trembling voice let out a question filled with anticipation.
Ur nodded vigorously.
"There is! I promise you! Sam will eventually become the greatest wizard of all! No, I will do it!"
"I'm the greatest wizard of all time?"
I wonder if I can be.
One year after being reborn in another world, I wondered if I had such a talent, since I had no talent with swords and had to rely on magic.
But Ur's eyes were always straight and he didn't even seem to doubt Sam's talent.
（I want to believe.)
"This is fate, Sam. You and I, meeting by chance in this remote forest, have what we both want. I need a successor, Sam needs a good teacher."
Gulping, Sam swallowed his spit.
His body trembled with tension, and his heart began to beat wildly.
Ul stepped away from Sam and reached out his hand again.
（This must be fate.)
Ur is right, we both have what we wanted.
If this is not fate, what is?
Sam does not know how good Ur, a self-proclaimed genius wizard, is.
But her words and actions, full of confidence and bravado, make him want to bet on her.
Sam takes Ur's hand.
Her hand is surprisingly small, and her fingers are slender and supple.
Her hand squeezes Sam's strongly.
"It's nice to meet you. Mr. Ur."
"You may call me Master. From this day on, Sam is mine."
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
