Chapter 63: Heard about Ur Master ①
Translated by AmaLynne

「Will the Master also recommend me for the position of court wizard?」
After the fight with Günther, Sam was called by Jonathan to his office.
Lise and Erica are also here.
Only Günther, after healing his wounds with the medicine, went to the bathroom without hesitation, as if it were his own mansion.
Günther’s personal belongings are always kept in this mansion.
That’s how much he is in and out of the house on a regular basis.
「I saw with my own eyes what Sam is capable of. I don’t know of any other wizard besides Ur who has the power to destroy Günther’s wards. There is no doubt that you are at least more competent than I am. Then I will be happy to recommend you for the position of court wizard.」
「Thank you.」
Sam’s face lit up with surprise at this unexpected turn of events.
Lise and Erica also smiled and said congratulations.
Although he could not yet become a court wizard, he was honestly happy to have taken a step forward toward his goal.
Then, Jonathan bowed his head to Sam.
「Master?」
「I underestimated Sam. I’m sorry.」
「Wha, please raise your head!」
「I kind of knew you were strong. I thought I knew what you were capable of from the letter she left me. But in reality, you were stronger than I had imagined. I realized that my eyes were not as bright as I thought.」
Now Sam understands why Jonathan apologized.
But Sam doesn’t care about such things.
Rather, it’s a normal reaction.
「No, I know very well myself that I am immature. Please don’t apologize.」
「But I can’t feel sorry for my daughter for this… you, my daughter’s cherished disciple.」
「Master… please raise your face anyway.」
At the sound of Sam’s voice, Jonathan reluctantly obeyed.
It was a relief.
He couldn’t let his superior keep his head down forever.
「I thought I knew that Sam was capable of doing things that were inappropriate for his age, but I didn’t expect him to go this far… I thought there might come a day when I would recommend him for court magician. But I had no idea that he was already good enough. I would be delighted to recommend you to the court.」
Sam is grateful to receive the recommendation of the Vice Commander of the Royal Magical Army.
Above all, he was happy to have Ur’s father’s approval.
「I appreciate it. But I have already heard that Günther is going to recommend me. What should we do about that one?」
「It will be in the form of joint names for Günther and myself. But I would like you to have one more recommendation.」
「One more?」
「There is nothing better than to have many voices to recommend you. In your case, age is an issue. Of course, you have power comparable to that of Günther, so you are perfectly capable. There are always people who get in the way. Nevertheless, it is His Majesty the King who will make the final decision.」
The biggest challenge would be to get the King’s approval.
Now, what to do, Sam wonders.
He couldn’t even imagine meeting someone who was above the clouds, but he couldn’t imagine getting his approval.
「So I have someone I’d like to introduce to you, Sam.」
「To me?」
「It’s Delight Sinatra. He would recommend Sam. And His Majesty the King will remember him. Not a bad recommendation.」
「Delight Sinatra-sama?」
He had never heard the name before.
「Who is he?」
「He was Ur’s master and former second-seat court wizard. What’s more, he was once called the most powerful wizard in the kingdom.」
