Sam’s statement, which could be taken as reckless, left the Walkers wide-eyed and stunned.

「Th-That’s a big goal. But, you know, I think it might be difficult. Do you have a plan?」

「First of all, I’m thinking of becoming a court wizard in this country.」

「I see. Ulrike was also a court wizard. So you’re aiming for the same heights that she did?」

「Yes, but that is only a starting point. I want to become a court wizard, the best in the land, then the strongest on the continent, and then the strongest in the world.」

「Th-That’s grand.」

「As the inheritor of the magic left behind by my master, I believe I should do at least this much.」

Sam has decided to become a wizard who can surpass even Ur, so that when he meets his late master again, he will be praised for a job well done.

He doesn’t think it’s impossible.

He knew from the start that it was a high goal.

So, he just has to stay positive and not think about the negative.

But to Mr. and Countess Walker, it may have sounded like a delusion.

Both of them were looking very confused.

Sam cleared his throat.

「For now, I’m aiming to become a court wizard, so please understand that I’ll be staying in Royal Capital for a while.」

Regardless of his true intentions, he decided to say something that was within the acceptable range of understanding for both of them.

「Regardless of your goal, you’ll be staying in the capital for a while?」

「Yes.」

「Then you can live in this house while you’re in the capital.」

「Are you sure? Wouldn’t that be too much trouble?」

Now it was Sam’s turn to be confused.

Even though he was Ur’s discipline, he had never expected to be taken care of by a total stranger.

Countess Walker smiled at Sam.

「Actually, my daughter has asked me to take care of you, Sam. Please, let us take care of you.」

「And isn’t Sam a child who hasn’t even reached maturity yet? We can’t just throw a child out of the house.」

Grace said it clearly.

Not because he was a noblewoman, not because he was Ur’s disciple, but because she was a sensible adult who couldn’t leave Sam alone when he was still a child.

Her kindness brought tears to Sam’s eyes as he realized that she was still Ur’s mother.

Ur was also strict and had an arrogant side, but her roots were kind.

Every time he came in contact with her family, he couldn’t help but miss Ur.

「Sam, if you don’t want to just take charity, how about becoming my family’s personal wizard?」

「Me?」

「My daughter has told me of your talents and abilities. If you are a wizard of her caliber, it would be a shame to lose you to another family. What do you think?」

「If you want to become a court wizard, you need not only the ability, but also the backing. Fortunately, my family is a lineage of wizards and I’ve been given the title of Count. In addition, my husband is the vice commander of the first unit of the magic army that serves the country. I think it’s a good idea to have your back, don’t you?”」

Count and Countess Walker’s proposal was appealing.

Sam didn’t know anyone in Royal Capital and had nowhere to go in the future.

Furthermore, it was nice to have Countess Walker’s backing in his pursuit of becoming a court wizard.

It would help him get closer to his goal.

「Of course, we will have to see what you can do, and you will have to show us that you are worthy of being a court wizard. What do you think, would you be willing to let us help you?」

「Um, why would you do that?」

At Sam’s plausible question, the couple looked at each other and then smiled a little sadly.

「You are Ulrike’s first and last disciple, and her last request was for us to help you. As a parent, I would at least like to fulfill her last wish.」

He could tell that the two of them truly loved Ur.

It was not an easy task to welcome such a child, especially when they did not know where the child came from.

However, the Walkers decided to accept their daughter’s last words and her disciple.

Perhaps because they believe it will be a memorial offering to their daughter.

They sincerely hope that their daughter will be relieved of her sorrow and rest in peace.

Sam felt for Count and Countess Walker, and then thanked Ur for caring about him until the very end.

「Thank you for your help.」

Sam bowed profoundly to the Count and Countess.
