「It’s quite a life you’ve had, Sam.」

When Sam finished telling everything except for the fact that he had been reincarnated, a bitterly smiling Ur gave him this impression.

「It’s none of your business.」

Sam was born the eldest son of a rural baronial family, but due to his lack of talent with the sword, he was unable to become the heir and was forced out of the house by his half-brother.

However, Sam told her that he was happy about this situation.

Ur laughed at him and said,「You’re strange.」

「But the Baron of Reinbach, I’ve never heard of them.」

「Well, they are countryside nobles.」

「I’ve never heard of them. By the way, what do you plan to do now, Sam?」

「I’ve already registered as an adventurer, so I’m thinking of saving up some money and moving from place to place after a while.」

「What an unchildlike and indifferent goal. Don’t you have any plans to become a big shot or get back at your folks?」

「Not really.」

「So, what’s your purpose in moving from place to place?」

「I’m just trying to see the world.」

「―――Oh! You’re just like me!」

Sam’s answer made Ur’s eyes shine with happiness.

「Could it be, Ur-san?」

「Yes, I am! I’m also traveling around the world to see different places and acquire different kinds of magic from all over the world.」

「All the magic in the world?」

「Have you ever wondered if you could use a little magic? Wouldn’t you like to learn and acquire as much magic as possible and rise to the heights of wizardry?」

「I do!」

「I knew you would say that. You are somewhat like me. Maybe that’s why you found me, because we’re on the same wavelength.」

Ur shook her red hair in delight, as if she had found a comrade.

Sam was also happy to have met someone who was trying to see the world the way he did.

「But I don’t know if I have any magic talent. At best, I can only do body enhancement magic.」

「Strengthening the body is also simple, but surprisingly difficult to use. Okay, this is just a coincidence. I’ll take a『look』at it for you―――Appraisal.」

A magic circle floated in Ur’s right eye as she looked at him.

Sam felt as if he were being watched from the inside.

After a while, Ur gave a small snort.

「I never thought I would find it here.」

「Um, Ur-san?」

「Boy! No, Sam!」

「Y-Yes?」

Ur suddenly grabbed both of his shoulders and her face was so close that their lips could touch if they were not careful.

「You may not be as good as me, but you have a great deal of magic and magical talent!」

「―――!? Really!?」

「Of course. I would never tell a trivial lie. And I have more good news for you, my talented friend!」

「Good news?」

「Rejoice! Ur-Scheidt here will make you her discipline!」

「Yes?」

「Good. That’s a good answer.」

「No, wait, that wasn’t a reply, that was just a confused question.」

Sam was in a panic when he was suddenly asked to become a discipline, but Ur left him alone and proceeded to talk.

Her momentum was so strong that Sam could not stop her.

「From today on, you can call yourself Sam?Scheidt!」

「Wait, Ur-san! Wait, please, wait!」

「I’ve been looking for someone who could be my successor for a long time. Someone who can carry on all the magic I’ve learned, someone with talent.」

「Y-You mean, that?」

「Yes. That’s you, Sam!」

Sam can’t even afford to be flattered when a beautiful face is so close to him.

His heart starts to beat faster.

But it’s not because of the distance between Ur’s face and him.

「What kind of talent do I have?」

It was a question full of expectation that he spat out in a trembling voice.

Ur nodded vigorously.

「Yes! I promise you! Sam will eventually become the most powerful wizard of all! No, I’ll make him one!」

「I’ll be the most powerful wizard?」

He wondered if he could become one.

It had been a year since he had been reincarnated into another world, and he wondered if he, who had no talent with a sword and had to rely on magic, had such a talent.

However, Ur’s eyes were bright and straight, and she didn’t even seem to doubt Sam’s talent.

(―――I want to believe.)

「This is fate, Sam. You and I met by chance in this remote forest, and we both have what we are looking for. I need an heir, and Sam needs a good mentor.」

With a gulp, Sam swallowed his spit.

His body trembled with tension and his heart was beating furiously.

She took a step away from Sam and extended her hand again.

(This must be fate.)

As Ur said, they both have what they wanted.

If this wasn’t fate, what was it?

Sam doesn’t know how good Ur, a self-proclaimed genius wizard, is.

However, her confident words and actions made him want to bet on her.

Sam took Uru’s hand without hesitation.

Her hands were surprisingly small, her fingers thin and supple.

Her hand squeezed Sam’s hand back forcefully.

「I look forward to working with you, Ur-san.」

「You may call me Master. From today on―――Sam is mine.」
