"By the way, I heard your name, Magnolia-dono?"

"I was just listening to the first seat of the court wizard."

Günther sat down on the sofa and crossed his legs gracefully.

"You are a kind man, Magnolia. He comes from a family of excellent wizards who have protected the royal family for generations. They have been very kind to me as well.

Günther calls me by name with a "sir.

Sam thinks he must be a very important person.

"Yes, Günther. I was just talking to Sam and I was wondering if you would consider Delight as a nominee for court wizard?"

"...... I agree with your uncle's idea. Sam, you should meet Mr. Delight. He's the one who taught Ulrike how to do magic. But, Uncle, are you sure?"

Günther's question was filled with a hint of doubt, and Jonathan nodded his head.

"To tell you the truth, I'm not sure if I should let you meet with Sam, but the influence of ...... Delight is still alive and well. If I could recommend him, I would."

"Excuse me?"

Sam is unable to follow the conversation and hesitantly calls out to him.

Günther responds with a smile.

"Oh, I'm sorry, Sam. I didn't want to leave you out of the conversation about my wife.

No, she's not my wife.

"Not only me and your uncle, but Lise and Erika know that Master Delight is indeed a wonderful wizard."

"If you say so, then it must be pretty good."

"If Delight-sama was in his prime, he might have even broken my wards."

Very interesting.

Günther's solid wards are hard to break.

In fact, it was so strong that I was convinced that no one but Ur could have broken it during the battle.

It is hard not to be interested in a wizard who has the potential to break Günther's ward.

Above all, Delight is Ur's mentor.

That alone made him important to Sam.

"Is it too late for that? I hear you're getting old."

"I said I'm not in my prime, but I'm not an old man either. I'm just..."

"Just?"

"I'm not sure how to say this."

You're not very articulate.

I noticed that not only Günther but also Jonathan, Liese and Erika had a difficult look on their faces.

"Master Delight has been ...... drowning his sorrows in drink since he was forced to leave his position as court wizard."

"Günther. I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that. You know what, Sam? Mr. Delight's drinking so much he's stopped using his magic. Her daughter Francesca is taking care of her now.

"...... that's..."

Liese tells us to add to the story, but to Sam it seems as if Delight has been drowning his sorrows in drink.

"He used to have many disciples, but now he has none. He is not usually a bad person. In fact, he was a hard man to please, but a dedicated magician. However, he could be a bit out of control when he was drunk."

"In the past, drinking didn't cause me such problems. But now that I've been through some hard times, I'm a little more dependent on alcohol."

"I don't know how you feel.

"Even after he was deprived of his most powerful position and the position of court wizard, his disciples still adored Delight-sama, but little by little they all drifted away from him. But then the only one who remained was...

"-Ur?"

"Yes."

But Ur is gone now, too.

"What now, Sam? Listen to what I've just said, and you be the judge. There is no need for you to meet with Mr. Delight. There are other candidates for the nomination."

Jonathan says so, but Sam is troubled.

It would be rude not to meet Ur's master.

"But you think I should meet with Master Delight, don't you?"

"If I may be honest, I hope that seeing Sam, the apprentice left behind by Ur, whom Lord Delight loved the most, will bring about a change in him."

Apparently, Jonathan and the others hope that they can be the catalyst for Delight's recovery.

As for Sam, he can't just leave Ur's mentor to become a drunk.

"Okay. Okay, I'll see him. Ur master is like a master to me too. Please allow me to say hello."

"Thank you. Just give me a call, and I'll take you to the Delight's estate whenever you want."

Then I will ask you tomorrow as soon as possible.

"Okay."

Thus, Sam decided to meet Ulu's mentor, Delight Sinatra.
