Chapter 70: 7 "I met Delight Sinatra, Ul's master." ①

The room was littered with magic books and filled with the smell of alcohol.

The owner of the room, Delight Sinatra, was a long-haired man in his mid-forties with a stubble beard.

He was not filthy, as if his daughter was taking care of him.

However, it seems to be true that he is addicted to alcohol.

"......Sorry. I told her not to drink."

"I don't mind."

I walked across the floor, which was littered with books, and kneeled down in front of a middle-aged man with his feet on the desk, who was stirring a bottle of sake.

"It's nice to meet you. My name is Samuel Scheidt. I am a student of Ulrike Scheidt Walker."

At Sam's greeting, Delight looked from the bottle to me.

"You're Ur's disciple?"

"Yes."

"You're a kid."

"I'm still a minor."

"......So, what do you want from me?"

"I wanted to say hello to Mr. Delight, Ur's mentor."

"Ha, what's the use of saying hello to a fallen man like me?"

Delight's attitude was not very good, perhaps because of the alcohol he had consumed.

But not to the point of being off-putting.

In the meantime, Sam is sensing Delight's magic.

For a man who has been sober for so many years, he has sharpened his magic.

He feels powerful, even though his age should have diminished him.

(He is indeed Ur's master. Even if he was a drunkard, his quality as a wizard is quite high.)

"...... father, Sam, I came to greet you because I wanted you to be a nominee for the court wizard."

"Oh? Oh, you said something like that. Ha! You make me laugh! A kid like you, a court magician? I'm not that naive!"

"Maybe. But as Ur's apprentice, I aim to be the strongest. Being a court wizard is just a passing phase.

How dare you call yourself the best in front of me?

To the man who was once the strongest, it seemed arrogant for Sam, still a child, to speak of being the strongest.

I could clearly see the anger on Delight's face.

Fran rushes to follow Sam.

"Father, I heard that Sam can destroy Master Günther's wards."

"--, that perverted little boy, he can break Günter Ignatz's wards?

"Yes."

"I thought only Ur could break Günther's solid wards. ...... Do you really think a kid like you can do that?"

Sam responds to Delight's quizzical look with a smile.

"In the meantime, I was able to borrow Günther's name as a nominee for the court wizard."

"You don't have to lie ....... Hey, kid.

Please call me Sam.

You're just a kid. You're more confident in your abilities, aren't you?

"Ur trained me, sir."

"...... okay. Then I'll see how good you are first! If you use nothing but boring magic, I'll kill you on the spot!"

"Oh, Father!

I will gladly accept your offer.

"Even Sam?

Leaving Fran, who could not hide her surprise, behind, the decision was made to fight Delight.

It was unexpected.

I had heard that he had been drinking and not using magic, but it would be nice to have the master of Ur to see what he can do.

Sam himself wanted to see how well his magic would work against Delight.

Besides..,

(If you're really drunk and not using magic, I don't think you'd bother trying to fight me. Maybe this guy is not as fallen as everyone says he is.)

Just as Liese wished, Sam hoped that Delight would get back on his feet if he had fallen.

But if he has the strength to fight, it seems he is not as bad as people around him say.

"--Good nerve, you little shit."

Delight gets his feet off the desk and tries to stand up.

But..,

"Ggh, d*mn it."

He wobbles to his feet and falls on his buttocks on the floor.

"Father! You're drinking too much!"

"I didn't drink that much. ...... d*mn it! Hold on, kid! I'm gonna go take a bath and sober up! Okay? Don't run away from me!"

"We'll be waiting for you. Please make yourself at home."

"You cheeky little brat!"

With that, Delight sniffed and left the room to take a bath.
