"...... Why are you getting into a dueling frenzy while I'm taking a bath?"

　A refreshed Delight looked up at the heavens with a towel wrapped around his waist.

　Sighing heavily, Delight reaches for his drink, as is his habit.

　But his daughter Fran stopped him.

"Father, please don't drink."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"d*mn it, I get it!　But you're going to want a drink!　For what reason is this kid supposed to duel with that bastard Albert!　You better explain it to me so I can understand it!"

But first, you need to get dressed. You're in front of a customer.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I can't find my clothes!　I called for you many times from the bathroom, but when you didn't come, I thought something must be wrong, but I never dreamed that Albert was here!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"There's a change of clothes right there for you."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Take it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes, sir."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　After receiving his clothes, Delight quickly changed and sat down on the sofa, just like Sam and the others.

"Anyway, let's start from the beginning. How did you end up in a duel?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I'm the one who challenged him to a duel."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"...... You're being too brief. No, you're the one who asked for the duel in the first place, and you're the one who's going to accept it against the kid."

　Delighted or angry, he begins to shake his leg.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Fran said apologetically to him.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Father, I'm the one who caused this."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Oh?　What do you mean?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Fran told my father.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Albert had been courting her for several years and had been insistent.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He is still persistent and came to the house again today.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He said that he had slapped Albert for insulting him, which made Albert angry, and that Sam covered for him when he was about to hit him.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"...... That's why he said duel."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I could not allow such a man to be a court wizard, much less call himself the most powerful."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

You're an idiot.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Maybe.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Normally, I wouldn't pick a fight with the most powerful man in the kingdom. But, well, you know... ......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Cranky and slightly embarrassed, Delight bowed his head.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I thank you for defending my daughter."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"--Father."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I'm a father too. I wouldn't be so cool if I heard my daughter had been beaten before she got married. ......Well, if you let your daughter take care of a drunk like me, you're probably just as much of a man who lays his hands on women."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Neither Sam nor Fran can find the words to say to Delight, who mocks himself with these words.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"But what the hell, how could Albert leave without getting into a fight with a kid?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Strangely enough, Albert was also very enthusiastic. I think he's up to something, and I think he's telling Sam to wash his head and wait for ...... him."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　As Fran had explained, Albert left so easily that Sam, who had sold the fight to him, was left in a state of shock.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And he did so after agreeing to fight a duel.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Even Sam was surprised that Albert agreed to the duel.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　What is more interesting is that he was smiling as if he was looking forward to it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I mean, kid."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"--No, I'll call you Sam. I'll put your skills aside, but I'll give you credit for having the guts to pick a fight with that son of a b*tc*."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Thank you very much.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

So, what are the odds?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Well, I'm sure we can work something out."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"...... you know. You know, court wizards don't take duels lightly. They rarely challenge you to a duel. Even if they did, the question is whether the state would recognize ...... it or not. Sam said he would take Albert's place as court wizard and the most powerful, and if we have to fight over this, it will be in front of the king!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Well, why?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Well, I guess you don't know anything about that."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Sighing, Delight explained.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　To begin with, the king is the custodian of the court wizard.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Even if they are sent to war, they are not allowed to go out without the king's permission.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, before the king makes a decision, the wizarding army, the knights, and the nobles discuss the matter, and then the king makes the final decision.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In other words, even if Sam wanted to fight a duel with Albert, he would have to first convince the army and nobles, and then get the King's approval before he could even fight.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"On the other hand, if he wins against Albert, the king will recognize his status as the court wizard and the most powerful one, right?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Why are you so positive!　Well, if you get permission and the duel is approved, and in case you win, so be it."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Then it's convenient. I'll beat him, that's all."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It is not a matter of confidence or lack thereof.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　As Ur's apprentice, as his successor, as one who aspires to become the most powerful wizard in the world, being a court wizard or the most powerful wizard in this country is just a passing phase.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Then it is only natural that I should win such a duel.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Sam had no intention of letting this opportunity pass him by.
