Chapter 198: Günther's Fiancée 1
Translated by AmaLynne
One pleasant afternoon, with the warm sunlight streaming in.
Sam had just finished his combat training, changed his clothes, and was getting ready to spend some leisurely time with his fiancées.
“Sam! Please help me!”
“…Günther? What’s up, man? I’m kinda busy here.”
Out of nowhere, Günther Ignatz burst into the room.
Günther, who looked like he had leaped out of a shoujo manga with his charming looks, dressed impeccably in an all-white suit, which was breathtaking even for those of the same gender.
If he weren’t a bit of a pervert, many people might have been led astray.
?However, today, Günther, though still impeccably dressed, seemed somewhat fatigued and wore a pallid expression.
“Your indifferent attitude is just perfect! But seriously, it’s the greatest crisis of my life. I’m being targeted by a formidable enemy I can’t handle. Sam, I need your help.”
“Günther, what kind of opponent are we talking about if you’re calling them formidable?”
“To be honest, I don’t think I can win.”
“–Heh…”
Sam initially thought Günther had shown up for some of his usual perverted antics, but it appeared he genuinely needed help.
Moreover, the fact that Günther, the Sky Kingdom’s best barrier wizard, and a court wizard, considered someone an enemy intrigued Sam as a fellow wizard.
“Alright, I’m in. I’ve owed you quite a bit, Günther, and I’m curious about this formidable opponent.”
Sam flashed a fierce grin.
A renowned wizard, or perhaps a top-tier adventurer, or even a wanted criminal on the run—Sam had no idea who this enemy could be.
The reason behind their pursuit of Günther remained unclear, but the prospect of facing an unknown formidable opponent with his magic excited Sam.
“Where is this opponent?”
“They’re probably following me.”
“Hey, wait! You’re not just strolling around the capital like you own the place; you’ve even come to this mansion? What the hell are you doing? We need to evacuate Lise-sama and the others ASAP!”
The moment turned grave, and Sam grew frantic.
He needed to get Lise, who was expecting a child, as well as the master and mistress of the house, and the non-combatant Alicia and the cherished young dragon guests to safety.
While Hanae and Mizuki were formidable assets in combat, Sam hoped they could protect Lise and Alicia if possible.
“Sorry, Sam. I was desperate to escape.”
“No need to apologize, but what happened to your barrier, which you’re so skilled at?”
“It didn’t work.”
“…Really?”
.
Sam couldn’t imagine an opponent strong enough to bypass Günther’s barrier, which had given him a tough time.
“Before we’re caught off guard, let’s confront them.”
Since they didn’t know the extent of the enemy’s attack power, Sam didn’t want to fall further behind.
If possible, he wanted to avoid fighting in the mansion or even in the capital.
“Sam?”
As Sam tried to leave the room with Günther, the door opened before them, and Lise peeked her head in.
“Oh, Lise, perfect timing!”
“Is there something you need from me? Wait a moment, though. Is Günther here?”
“Uh, yes.”
“That’s good. Günther, you have a visitor.”
“Huh? A visitor?”
Sam raised an eyebrow, puzzled why someone would come to Count Walker residence specifically to see Günther at this moment.
“No, no, noooooooooooooooooo!”
While Sam was pondering, Günther crawled onto Sam’s bed and let out a scream.
“Hey, Günther.”
“Don’t be deceived! That’s no visitor; it’s an enemy coming after me!”
“They’re here already? Lise-sama, please come over here!”
“Um, Sam? Günther? An enemy? What’s going on?”
“It seems an enemy is following Günter!”
“…I can’t believe it, but it’s not our lovely young lady here, right?”
“Huh?”
To Sam’s astonishment, a petite girl appeared from behind Lise.
She looked younger than Sam, who was fourteen years old, with long blonde hair flowing down to her waist and wearing a light peach-colored dress.
Smiling warmly, the girl lowered her head when her eyes met Sam’s.
“Nice to meet you. I’m Claire Doik.”
“Uh, hello. I’m Samuel Scheidt. Um, who might you be?”
“I’m the fiancée of Günther Ignaz-sama, who ran away from the meeting.”
It turned out that the person chasing Günther was not an enemy but his fiancée.
