While everyone was speechless, Sam quietly kneeled down in front of the king.

King Clyde, stunned, comes to his senses.

"Judgment!"

"Yes, yes! Winner! Samuel Scheidt!"

There were no cheers as Ryudo, when his name was called, proclaimed Sam the winner.

No one could accept the fact that a boy of only fourteen years of age had killed the most powerful wizard in the kingdom in the blink of an eye.

The same was true for the Countess Walker and the Sinatras, who were watching on.

"--I didn't think I could kill Albert in an instant,......You can't believe your own eyes," he said. But I ask you, Samuel."

"Yes."

Did you have to kill Albert?

I was not a man to be trifled with.

I'm not lying.

I was not the kind of man you could take mercy on.

The king had a difficult look on his face when Sam answered, but he nodded his head in understanding.

"Well, then, that's fine. Samuel Scheidt.

"Ha."

"From this day forward, you are the most powerful wizard in the Kingdom of Skye."

"Thank you very much."

And the position of second seat of the court wizard, or rather the third seat where Ulrike Scheidt-Walker used to be, is yours.

"Thank you for your concern."

Sam thanked the king for his consideration.

As Ur's successor, I am grateful to be entrusted with the third seat of the Court of Wizards, where Ur used to be.

He wanted to be the court wizard and the most powerful man in the kingdom, but he did not want to take Albert's place.

"From this moment on, I want you to serve this country."

"Of course. I will use my magic for the good of this country.

"Mm. Pleased to meet you.

Nodding his head in satisfaction, the king stood up and announced loudly to the crowd.

"Hear me! All of you! Here is born the greatest young wizard of all time! Praise them all!"

As the king's words echoed through the crowd, applause and emotion welled up.

Looking around, all the Countesses of Walker and Sinatra and his son also said, "Well done! I could hear them shouting.

Günther, who was escorting the king, winked at me, but I ignored it.

However, I could see a few well-dressed people among them who were applauding and looking bitter.

They are probably aristocrats who were Albert's backers.

They must not be amused by the disappearance of the court wizard whom they had known so well.

(Well, it seems that Albert was in the opposite faction to the Master, so it doesn't matter.)

I am not interested in aristocratic ties.

All Sam has to do is to use his position as court wizard and the most powerful man in the Kingdom of Skye as a stepping stone to eventually become the most powerful man on the continent and the most powerful wizard in the world.

(Urgh, I did it.)

Later we will visit the grave of our beloved master.

Tell her that I am the greatest wizard in the Kingdom of Skye.

I'm sure she'll congratulate you on a job well done.

Or she may be disappointed that you caused a duel.

Sam missed Ur tremendously.

Sadness fills his heart and he bites his lip to hold back the tears that threaten to spill.

He does not shed a tear.

I decided to smile and move on.

"Samuel. You will be notified later. First, you may reassure those who have worried about you and supported you."

"Thank you very much."

And-- and well done."

"What?"

Reflexively, Sam looked up to see the king with a deep smile on his face.

What he meant by "well done" to Sam, Sam does not know.

(Or if he even needed to know. (I don't need to know what the King thinks.)

As the King sat down in his chair, Sam stood up, bowed deeply, and ran to his beloved family.
