When Sam woke up, he was greeted by Günther's face at such a close distance that their noses were almost touching.
"What the hell are you doing?
Reflexively, I punched Günther, who fell on his buttocks and made a sad face.
"...... I thought the prince's kiss would wake up the princess."
"Who's the princess! No, that's not the point! Don't attack me in my sleep!"
"--oh, yeah, that's right. I'm afraid it was my fault, I was so excited to see your sleeping face that ...... from now on I'm going to attack you when you're awake, fair and square."
No, no, no, no, no.
"......Well, on a serious note, I'm glad to see you're doing well by the looks of it. You've been asleep for three days."
"I've been asleep for three days?"
Sam was surprised.
He remembers fighting Anan, a warrior of the Najarian people, and cutting him down with a single sword.
After that, he had a conversation with Lady Stella and had no memory of the rest of the battle.
He probably lost a lot of blood and passed out from the excessive use of magic.
"My wounds were healed by the neighboring saints and Magnolia, so I don't even have a mark on me. But you can't get back the blood you lost.
As Günther stood up, Sam checked himself.
He was right, he had been healed so well that it seemed as if he had lied about being eaten by Annan.
"......The people of Najaria, they were actually a bad bunch when we fought them. They use unknown methods and have no real qualms about eating people. I never thought I would experience being eaten by humans instead of monsters."
"O you people of Najaria! I'm not tired of you sticking your teeth into my Sam's soft skin, but to eat his flesh and sip his blood - how enviable ...... and horrifying!"
"Hey, didn't you just say you were jealous?"
"Ha-ha-ha, what nonsense! I'm sorry I couldn't help you in your time of need. If I had been there, I could have at least protected them with a ward, but at that time, I was in the middle of putting the self-injuring women from the neighboring country to sleep and locking them inside the ward. I didn't expect that crazy family to storm into the royal palace."
"You don't have to apologize, Günther. It was my fault. I was weak.
Günther does not need to apologize.
He was just doing what he had to do.
Sam was just Sam, a court wizard, fighting the people of Najaria against the Kingdom of Skye.
It is Sam's own fault that he was wounded.
He could not be ruthless enough to slay Anan and the soldiers who shielded him. He used his magic eye on Anan, even though it was a surprise attack. This is the result.
"You can't blame yourself so much. Besides, you would have won smarter if you had used magic. The only reason you couldn't use magic to its fullest is because the battle took place in the royal palace.
That's no excuse.
"Like Ulrike, all your magic is too powerful. You should learn to use more subtle tricks."
Ur was the kind of person who didn't care where he was or where he was shooting his magic.
Sam hesitated whether or not to kill the soldier who was using him as a shield, but Ur would have cut him down without hesitation, saying, "It is a soldier's duty to die.
Sam is getting close to Ur's strength. With his skills, he would be a very good fighter. But he will surely lose. The reason is that Sam is too soft and Ur is not.
It was not likely that he would callously abandon a man who had done his duty as a soldier, even if he had nothing to do with it, let alone one who was his enemy.
"I know. I've been using my skills too much lately. I'll train more.
Kirisakumono is easy to use.
After all, if it has a drawback of being too powerful, it can be fatal if it hits you.
However, because of its overuse, there is a possibility that it will be dealt with in the future as it was this time.
There were several more efficient ways to defeat Annan. If they had been able to use them, they would have won the battle earlier and he would not have been eaten.
Sam gritted his teeth.
He would never be able to face Ur at this point.
He had yet to master her magic, her spells, or even his own for that matter.
He must have been somewhat in a good mood because he had been winning the battles so well recently.
I feel sorry for being a poor student to my respected master.
You are still developing. I would like to tell you that there is no need to be in a hurry, but I am sure that you, of all people, would not agree with me."
"Yeah."
"I believe in it. I believe that you, the heir to Ulrike Scheidt-Walker, will be a better wizard than she ever was."
"--Thank you."
Sam thanked Günther frankly.
"Well, it's a wife's role to support her despondent husband.
But Günther was his usual self.
"He'd be a really nice guy if he wasn't."
"Oh yeah, speaking of wives, let's go get Liese and the others. They'll be at the palace in case Sam wakes up. You just wait here for a moment.
Günther winked at me and walked out of the room. A few moments later, Stella, Karen, Mizuki, and Alicia came running into the room, with Lise in the lead.
"Sam-sama!"
It was Stella who hugged Sam before anyone else.
She had seen Sam being eaten by Annan, and she was probably not in the least bit happy about it.
She began to cry tears of relief as she hugged Sam.
"Sam, thank God. It's such a relief to see you back on your feet."
"Ha-ha-ha, I'm sorry for worrying you."
Liese also looked deeply relieved.
"To be honest, I'm surprised that Sam had such a difficult opponent."
"We struggled this time, but next time we won't fall behind."
"...... believe in you, Sam. You're going to be a father, so don't be too rash."
He must have been very worried about me. Lise was also acting stout-hearted, but she shed tears and hastily wiped them with a handkerchief.
Alicia was crying without uttering a word, and Hanae and Mizuki were also bewildered by Sam's weakened appearance, which they had never seen before.
(I'm sorry for worrying you guys. ...... I should reflect on this.)
As Sam, with renewed determination, addresses his fiancées one by one, a knock on the door echoes through the room.
"I heard that Mr. Scheidt woke up."
When he answered, he was visited by Kaoruko Kirishima, a saint and otherworldly person from the Kingdom of Orkney.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
