Becoming a magician in another world

The next morning ended with a duel with Albert, a fierce fight with the Scorching Dragon, and a hurried day of rescuing the imprisoned dragon children.

The Scorching Dragon came to Sam's room with dark circles forming around his eyes.

She asked Sam to "bring me some tea" as she sat cross-legged on the sofa with a blank expression.

I poured the black tea that the maid had brought me not long ago into a cup along with my own and handed it to the Scorching Dragon.

Sam did not sit on the sofa like her, looking out the window, waiting for the arrival of the First Court Magician Mulian, who had visited the Earl's house specifically for treatment.

"Hmm. Human shelter and diet are surprisingly not a bad thing."

The Scorching Dragon drank his tea gracefully and said these words with an unsatisfied look on his face.

Sam looked at her face and smiled bitterly.

"That's great."

"What? Are you sleep deprived? You don't have any domineering aura?"

"No, well, that's the case, but let's just skip that."

"I don't know exactly, but I know."

I didn't sleep well because Liz confessed to me last night.

As a result, without answering her, he greeted the morning sullenly in bed.

(What do you want to do when you meet Ms. Liz?)

Beloved Ur wishes he could find someone in a relationship and start a family.

Although Ur cannot be forgotten, I hope that one day it will come.

To reassure my late master and also to make her happy.

I think that is filial piety as a disciple.

However, he never thought of being disrespectful to Liz.

Therefore, her confession came as a bolt from the blue.

"So it seems you talked with Miss Alicia until very late?"

Because he was almost trapped in the vortex of thoughts, Sam brought up the topic of the Scorching Dragon.

She seemed to remember what happened last night and agreed with a happy smile.

"Alicia is a good girl. The children are all close to her. Although I feel lonely as a mother, I am very happy to have made friends with the children. She smiled and talked to me without fear. There are probably not many daughters like her."

"Lady Alicia, you are amazing."

Alicia, who is not good with men and has a vulnerable side, is surprised again that she is not afraid of dragons.

Because she likes reading stories about dragons, she seemed very happy to see the real thing, but the fact that she, who has no fighting ability at all, was so close to the dragon called Scourge was something that not only Sam but also her family members seemed unable to believe.

However, calm and gentle Alicia seems to be favored by the Scorching Dragon and its children.

"That girl, there's a softness to her. That's what we like in our fantasies."

"I know Miss Alicia has a soft vibe."

"You humans won't understand. We are just confused. But, Alicia likes it not only because of the atmosphere, but also because that girl is a honest and good person at heart. That girl is not afraid of us, she looks at us and treats us as we are. This is the first time someone like that has ever happened to her."

"It seems to be the gentle Lady Alicia."

In fact, Alicia is a good kid.

Sam was used to it, and the conversation took a long time, but he enjoyed listening to it when Ur was spoken or when it was moved around in various places.

Every time we say something, it's like enjoying a play, and various expressions appear on the cute faces, so the sound of our words is also powerful.

And even though they were the family that lost Ur, they also cared about Sam.

However, regarding this, everyone in the Earl Walker family, including Liz, felt the same way.

Needless to say, the Earl's family are all kind-hearted people.

"Yeah. She washed the children and us carefully yesterday in the bath. The girl's clothes are also very comfortable to wear. Alicia really took care of me. If there were only people like that, we could live in peace."

"If all humans were like Alicia-sama, we could live in peace without fighting."

"That's right"

Sam and the Scorching Dragon looked at each other and laughed.

Then, the sound of a carriage was heard outside the window.

Leaning out of the window, I saw a large, beautifully decorated carriage parked in front of the mansion.

"Oh, it seems Master Mulian is here while we're talking."

The Scorching Dragon moved next to Sam and also looked at the carriage.

"Oh. Is there the best recovery magician in this country? Hmm. He has quite powerful magic."

"Understand?"

"Of course. I know you have a huge magical power, and another powerful magical power, and that you sealed the second magical power with shackles."

"——Ah. It would be very troublesome if I didn't keep it a secret."

It was easy to see through the fact that he had two magic powers, but I was not surprised.

The only opponent is a dragon that is far superior to humans.

This level was expected.

Sam put his index finger to his mouth in a gesture of silence.

The Scorching Dragon looked unhappy and snorted.

"Hmph. No one said that. But I don't like it when I'm not fighting with all my strength."

"Give it your all. My body is not ready yet because it has to deal with the overpowering magic. Then I will go all out."

If the battle was longer, the skills would probably be unlocked, but now I really feel it’s great that it didn’t happen.

"So you're still a child. And you're small."

"I'm not small! I'll be even longer if I grow up!"

Although Sam is only fourteen years old, he is about one hundred and sixty centimeters tall.

Although a little shorter than the average height on Earth in the previous life, it is definitely not too small.

Eating seems to be related as well.

The food in this world is not bad, but it is also simple in some ways.

No one cared about nutritional balance, and many lived too austerely for civilians.

Although I intend to make various modifications to the diet to show sooner or later, I haven't had the leisure time until now.

"So you didn't even use the skill to tear my child's shackles apart."

"That skill is too hard to use. You either use it as hard as you can or use it with all your strength. If you have used it, it would have fallen apart by now."

"No. If it were my scales, I could stand it."

I was thinking about it in my mind, but I didn't say it out loud.

It would be troublesome to fight again.

Sam moved away from the window and stood in front of the mirror to adjust his appearance.

Next I will meet the first seat of court magicians. I hope I don’t act rude.

If you are prepared, there will be a knock on the door.

Before Sam could answer, the Scorch Dragon moved silently and opened the door.

"Mr. Sam, Mr. Scorching Dragon, and Mr. Mulian are here."

Alicia, riding on the dragon child's back, came to call me.

As soon as Zilong found Sam, he shouted with joy, unable to help but smile as he stroked each of the three bodies in turn.

"Thank you, Miss Alicia. But things have gotten better."

"Yeah! I wanted to sleep together, but he looked tired. However, he seemed to have regained his energy and has been together since morning!"

“My kids have been glued to Alicia since breakfast time.”

The Scorching Dragon smiled at his mother's face.

Watching with satisfaction that Alicia and the little dragon are getting along so well.

"Mr. Sam, if you have time, come play with us."

"Yes, please let me go with you. Oh, it's almost time to go. We can't keep Mr. Mulian waiting for too long. Let's go."

He urged the fiery dragon and left the room with her.

"I can only use minimal recovery magic, it really helps."

"It's unlikely that he's injured enough to need treatment."

"You can be proud. You are the first person to torture me to this extent."

“It’s an honorable thing”

Sam was talking lightly with the Scorching Dragon as he walked towards the reception room, but he was concerned about one thing.

(If it was normal, Lizé-sama would have called me... Is it awkward because it was yesterday? Or am I overthinking?)

I saw Lizé, whom I saw every day as a matter of course, but I hadn't seen her today.

That incident made people feel helplessly lonely.
