The Walkers were wide-eyed and stunned by what could be taken as Sam's reckless remark.
"...... So, that's a big goal," Sam said. But, you know, I think it's going to be difficult. Do you have a plan?"
"First of all, I would like to become a court wizard in this country."
"I see. Ulrike was a court magician too. Are you saying that you want to reach the heights where she was?
"Yes. Yes, but it is a passing phase. I will become a court wizard, the best wizard in this country, then the most powerful on the continent, and then the most powerful in the world.
Well, that's grand.
"As an heir to the magic left to me by my master, I think this is the least I can do."
He is determined to become a better wizard than Ur so that when he meets his late mentor again, he will be praised for a job well done.
He does not think it is impossible.
He knows from the start that it is a lofty goal.
Then, I will not think about the negative, but always keep a positive attitude.
But it may have sounded like megalomania to Mr. and Mrs. Walker.
Both of them are looking very confused.
Sam clears his throat,
"In the meantime, I am going to become a court wizard, so please consider that I will be staying in King's Landing for a while."
I decided to say what was acceptable for both of us to understand, even if I did not mean it.
"Whatever your purpose is, are you sure you want to stay in King's Landing for a while as your base of operations?"
"Yes."
"Then you may live in this mansion while you are in King's Landing."
"Are you sure? Wouldn't that be a nuisance?"
Now it was Sam's turn to be puzzled.
He had never expected anyone, even Ur's apprentice, to care about a child who was a complete stranger to him.
Mrs. Walker smiles at Sam.
"Actually, my daughter has asked me to take care of Sam for her. Please let us take care of you.
"But..."
Besides, isn't Sam a child who hasn't even reached adulthood yet? I can't just throw him out there.
Grace made that clear.
Not because he was a nobleman, not because he was Ur's disciple, but because he was a sensible adult who could not leave Sam, who was still a child.
Her kindness brought tears to my eyes, as I knew she was Ur's mother.
Ur also had a strict and arrogant side, but he was kind at heart.
I miss Eul more and more every time I come in contact with her family.
"Dear Sam, if you are not willing to just accept charity, how about becoming the family's personal wizard?"
Me, sir?
My daughter has told me of your talents and abilities. If you are the wizard that she has assured me you are, it would be a shame to lose you to another house. What do you think?"
"If you want to become a court wizard, you must have the backing as well as the ability. Fortunately, my family is a family of wizards and I have been given the title of count. Besides, my husband is the vice-captain of the first squadron of the magical army that serves the country. It would be a good time for us to get behind him.
The Walkers' proposal was tempting.
With no acquaintances in King's Landing, Sam had nowhere to go in the future.
Moreover, he would be grateful for the backing of the Earls of Walker in his quest to become a court wizard.
It would make it easier to reach his goal.
"Of course, we will have to see what you are capable of, and you will have to show us that you are worthy of being a court wizard. How about it, will you allow us to assist you?"
"Well, why would you go to such lengths?"
At Sam's reasonable question, the couple looked at each other and then smiled a little sadly.
"You were Ulrike's first and last disciple, and she asked me to help you. As a parent, I would like to at least fulfill her last wish."
It is clear that they truly loved Ur from the bottom of their hearts.
It is not an easy thing to take in a child of unknown origin.
However, the Walkers decided to accept their daughter's last words and her discipleship.
Perhaps because they believe it will be a memorial service to their daughter.
They sincerely want their daughter to rest in peace and be free of her sorrows.
Sam felt for the Walker's and thanked Ur for taking care of him until the end of his life.
"Thank you for your care."
Sam bowed deeply to the Count and Countess.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
The Walkers were wide-eyed and stunned by what could be taken as Sam's reckless remark.
