"--Fu. The inheritance spell worked. Everything I am has been passed on to Sam. Oh, thank goodness."

Ulle, with a look of relief on his face, closed his eyes silently.

"Ur?"

"Sorry, I got kind of sleepy."

"Oh, you must be tired."

It became clear to Ur that his time was running out.

Tears streamed down Sam's cheeks.

He had decided not to whine anymore.

He didn't want to worry his beloved mentor.

Ur grips Sam's hand with his eyes closed.

"I want you to be a good wizard. But you know, it's not only about magic, it's also about yourself. I want you to forget about me, fall in love, make love, have a family, and be happy."

"I'm sure you'll never meet anyone better than Ur."

"No, you will. I assure you. Sam will be happy.

Sam took Ur's words and squeezed her hand tightly.

"Okay. I'll be happy. I'll live my life to the fullest, enjoying magic and life for Ur."

"--Good boy. That's Sam. My sweet, sweet, sweet pupil.

Ur smiled so serenely that it was hard to believe that he was on a sickbed.

Sam asked his mentor, "How are you doing?

Hey, Ur. Was I a good student?

"He was the best student I ever had. Hey, Sam, was I a good teacher?

"He was a great teacher. --I'm glad I met you. It was good to be with you. Thank you for everything."

Sam knew that he would never have another chance to say this, so he expressed his gratitude without any false pretenses.

How lucky Sam was to have met Ur.

How fulfilling the four years he had spent with Ur had been.

I don't think Sam will ever be able to tell Ur how much he appreciates him in the time he has left.

So, with tears in his voice, he expressed his heartfelt thanks.

"Well, thank you, too. Thank you for meeting Sam.

Ur's voice lost its power.

Slowly, as if he were falling asleep.

"I never thought my death would be so peaceful. Sam, can you hold my hand tighter?

Like this?

"Yes. Yes, I can feel your heat. Your hands were so small, but now they're bigger than mine."

Ur holds Sam's hand lovingly and caresses it with his other hand, as if to confirm his growth.

"I will never forget this warmth."

"I won't forget Ur's warmth either. I'll remember everything about you.

"I'm flattered, but forget about me. I like that."

"I can't. I can't do that."

"She's a total ...... mess."

Ur gave a small sigh, but he sounded somewhat pleased.

He might have wished that his apprentice would grow up and forget about him, but to Sam, Ur was something special.

How could he forget?

She seemed to understand this and was happy, even though she was in trouble.

"Sam ......, I have one last request."

"Anything."

"Will you give me a kiss?"

Instead of replying, Sam kissed her beloved on the mouth.

He tried to remember the feel of her lips on his heart.

Then, he let go of her lips, regretting his last kiss.

"Hmmm, to tell you the truth, it was my first kiss."

Me too. I'm glad Ur was the first."

"I'm glad Sam was the first, too."

We both had a small laugh.

It was not an intense kiss, as if two people who love each other are sincerely seeking each other, but it was a gentle kiss that fully conveyed their feelings for each other.

"Thank you, Sam. Please make me happy."

"Yes."

Her hand loosens.

"Ur?"

"...... be happy, please."

Those were Ur's last words.

Ur thought of Sam until the end of his life.

Ur! Ur!"

Sam calls out to his beloved who has passed away as if asleep, even though he knows he will never reach her.

Of course, there is no answer.

After calling out for a while, Sam had a faint hope that maybe she would answer him again, but she never woke up.

"Ur."

I must accept the death of my beloved mentor.

It is so painful that his heart aches.

Tears pour down her cheeks.

They run down his cheeks and wet his hands.

Ur would not want her to cry so pitifully.

But for now, just let me cry.

"-Good night, Ur. Please rest in peace."

Clinging to her corpse, Sam continued to shed tears.

This was how he said goodbye to Ur, the woman he loved with all his heart.
