　Sam had been living a peaceful life for the past few days, interacting with Lise and his fiancées.

　He was concerned about Lise's health, so he met with Karen and went to visit Mizuki and Kotomi. He exchanged letters with Stella and was steadily strengthening his bonds with his fiancées.

　Sam is suddenly taken to the royal palace by a knight who has come to Count Walker's house.

　It seems that the second queen, Cordelia Isle-Sky, has something to do with Sam.

　When I asked him why, he could only tell me the reason and made me put on my formal clothes in a short time.

　Thanks to the help of Liese and the others, it didn't take long, but she is a bit frustrated by the impolite summons.

(I don't know why I was called...).

　Dressed in a black suit and a blue coat reserved for court wizards, Sam was ushered into the reception room, where he inwardly nodded his head without touching the tea that had been brewed.

　He could not think of any reason why he should be summoned by the second queen, with whom he had no connection, while Stella's mother, the first queen Frances, had been summoned.

(But that didn't mean he could ignore the queen's call.)

　Such a thing might cause trouble for the Countess Walker family and Stella as well.

　To be honest, I have nothing to say to the queen, whose face I don't even know, but I am in the royal palace because it is the job of a court wizard in the service of this country.

　After a few minutes of waiting, when the steam from the teacups had run out, a knight entered the room without knocking.

　The knight took one look at Sam, looked around the room, and said to the hallway, "Come in.

　Then a woman in her mid-forties in a sparkling red dress with a maid in tow appeared.

　She had blonde hair and a flamboyant look.

(Is this the Second Queen Cordelia? (Is this the Second Queen Cordelia? ...... She looks like a flamboyant lady?)

　Although he never said it out loud, Sam's first impression was one of extreme disrespect.

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

　If he had asked me, I am sure I would have been outraged.

　The queen led the maids to a chair and sat down, half hiding her face with a fancy fan, and turned her gaze at us as if she was trying to judge our value.

"Are you Samuel Scheidt?"

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

　The queen's voice was somewhat intimidating.

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

"Yes. My name is Samuel Scheidt.

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

　Sam got up from his chair, put his hand on his chest and bowed.

"Hmmm, to think that the most powerful wizard in the kingdom is only a child. Well, that's all right. I called you here today because I have some good news for you myself.

"Yes."

"You will be pleased. I will let you marry my daughter Rachel."

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

　How could you?" Sam sighed inwardly without saying it out loud.

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

"With all due respect ......, I have Lieselotte Walker, Lady Murasaki Karen, Lady Amamiya Mizuki, and my fiancée, Her Royal Highness Princess Stella Isle Sky."

　It is impossible for him to be engaged to one more princess when he is engaged to a countess and even to a princess.

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

　This would be frowned upon.

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

　More importantly, I do not want to marry a princess whom I have never met.

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

　Moreover, Princess Rachel is of such a bad character that she would go out of her way to tell bad rumors about Princess Stella. I don't think I want to be with her.

"I'm aware that you have more than one fiancée."

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

"Then..."

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

"Why don't you just break off the engagement?"

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

"......."

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

"My daughter Rachel likes you. Rachel is better than Stella who is not even sure she's yours. You must have someone behind you if you're going to be a court wizard. I will be your backer.

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

"No, thank you."

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

　When Cordelia, in a laconic, high-handed manner, told him that she could not accept this, Sam made it clear that he would not accept it.

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

"What?

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

"Therefore, I must decline."

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

"You've got to be kidding me!　I'm offering you, a nobody from nowhere, Rachel!　And you say no to that!"

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

"No, I won't do it. With all due respect, sir, I have no reason to marry you, Rachel.

"...... don't get cocky!"

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

　Cordelia's fan is waved and strikes Sam on the cheek.

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

　Still straightening up, Sam did not shift his gaze from Cordelia.

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

Lieselotte and I are going to have a child. I can't break off my engagement to these precious people and get engaged to Rachel, no matter what happens.

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

"You, you dare to disrespect Cordelia's wishes!"

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

　A knight standing behind Cordelia approaches Sam as if he is about to draw his sword.

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

　But..,

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

"Don't touch me."

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

"--Hi, ah, ah, ah..."

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

　The dense deadly energy and magical power emanating from Sam rendered him unable to utter another word, and he collapsed on the spot and began to hyperventilate.

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

"Enough!"

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

　Cordelia rose from her chair and snapped her fan in her palm.

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

"Rachel insisted, and I thought it would be a good thing, but a child with no manners like you is not fit to be a daughter," Cordelia said. You should be playing with the little girls at best."

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

　With these words, the queen, having lost interest in Sam, gets up from her chair and leaves the room.

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

　The maids rush after Cordelia.

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

"Well, what was it all about?"

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

　Sam tilted his head and said, "I don't understand," but there was no one there to answer him.

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

　Later, a maid came in and asked, "Are you still here?　You can go home now," he is told. He sighs that he has wasted his time, and turns to leave the palace.

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

"Oh, Sam."

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

　A familiar voice calls to Sam as he steps out into the hallway.

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

"-The king."

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

　When Sam saw that it was King Clyde, he fell to his knees.

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

"Good, good, you and I will be father and son. I would like you to be more friendly to me. I heard you were in the palace and came looking for you because I had something I wanted to talk to you about. Will you come by my room?"

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

"Of course. I will be happy to accompany you.

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

Mm-hmm. Let's go."

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

　Sam readily agrees, and the king starts walking in a good mood.

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

（I wonder if he came to look for me by himself. He's so quick with his footwork.)

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

　With these thoughts in my mind, I followed the king.
