Chapter 108: Lise's Determination and My Feelings ①

Translated by AmaLynne

Jonathan Walker sat down on the bed in the bedroom and sighed loudly.

His wife Grace, who was applying lotion to her face, calls out to her husband from the mirror stand.

「You look tired, my dear.」

「I’ve had a long day.」

「Is there something I can help you with?」

「I’m here to see Sam about a proposal.」

「My!」

Grace put her cosmetics away quickly and sat down next to her husband.

「Who is it?」

「It’s Magnolia, granddaughter of Magnolia-dono.」

「My, the granddaughter of Magnolia-sama? Isn’t this a good match?」

「It would be a good match for Sam and our family. Magnolia-dono told me that after adopting Sam as a child of Count Walker’s family, she would like to make a marriage proposal. She must have been concerned about us.」

「It would be better than having him marry into a family that only cares about Sam’s power and wants to take him in.」

「I agree with you.」

Magnolia has the position of the court wizard and the best recovery magic user in the kingdom, and is trusted by the king.

If Sam is to solidify his position as a court magician and the strongest magician in the kingdom, he will have unparalleled backing.

However, Jonathan is troubled by the fact that Magnolia, like the other nobles, just wants to take Sam in.

But Magnolia is, in a sense, clean.

She says up front that she wants the blood of an excellent wizard in her family and that it is for her granddaughter.

Unlike the nobles who plan to take advantage of Sam, she is not entirely unmindful of Sam.

「Magnolia-dono has even offered her granddaughter to be his concubine. She also said that she would be willing to join our faction.」

「That’s a good match for us. I don’t know how it is for Sam. But is that the only reason you look so difficult? It’s not the first time you’ve had trouble with a marriage proposal.」

Grace is right, the Count Walker family is currently troubled by the ongoing marriage proposal of their daughters.

Alicia is being courted by a childhood friend, and although she does not want to, she continues to have a hard time saying no.

Erika has been asked to marry into a family of wizards, but their feelings are not yet clear.

The late Ur was also in a difficult situation. Offers of marriage came in from all over the country to marry a court magician.

Lise, too, was a sought-after disciple of the sword saint. However, in the end, she failed to choose a marriage partner. Lise is now being offered a marriage proposal.

One of the family members, who has no daughter at home, wants Lise to be their wife to make a connection with Sam.

Of course, Jonathan, who puts his daughter’s happiness first, sends a letter of refusal back without consideration.

So, Grace said, there is no need to worry about Sam now.

But it wasn’t just the prospect of a marriage proposal that was troubling Jonathan.

「Some houses are trying to cage Sam. I’m not sure when or where he’ll be asked out by a woman.」

「I hear that boys that age are very interested in the opposite sex… If an attractive one asks him out―――no, Sam has a lover named Ur.」

「Even if he does have a girlfriend, it’s a cagey situation. It is not without possibility.」

「Then what are you going to do? Even if you can refuse the marriage proposal, how will you prevent the family from trying to entangle?」

「The best thing to do would be to have him gain some experience with women so that he will be able to tolerate them a little better, but it’s kind of hard to say that. Isn’t that the role of fathers and older brothers?」

He treats Sam like a son, and he adores him, but it’s hard for me to talk to him about sensitive matters.

No way,「Hi, Sam. Are you a virgin? You’re in danger with the ladies, so why don’t you get some experience?」he can say that.

No, it would be hard to say, even to immediate family.

「Why don’t you just take him to a brothel?」

After a moment of contemplation, Grace’s brow furrowed at the muttering that leaked out of Jonathan.

「Never a brothel. You never know where and who is connected to whom. And please no maid. Sam is very popular, and the maids might be more attracted to her.」

Indeed, brothels are sometimes used by nobles.

You never know where they are connected to rival nobles.

In the worst case, they may even cause Sam to be taken in.

「Men are difficult creatures.」

「Not as difficult as women. It’s a headache either way, but that’s not what I’m worried about, I’m worried about Lise.」

「―――Right, I’m sure. Lise definitely loves Sam.」

Both Jonathan and Grace would think that if they were going to let Sam marry a child from another family, it would be Lise.

As parents, it’s not unreasonable. Everyone wants their daughters to be happy.

Especially Lise, who has had an unfortunate experience with marriage.

「What to do… Oops, looks like someone’s here.」

Jonathan, with his head in his hands, felt the presence of someone and turned his attention to the bedroom door, where a knock sounded.

「It doesn’t matter. Come in.」

「Excuse me. Father, mother.」

「Lise?」

「What’s wrong?」

The person who was the subject of the notice was Lise, the second daughter.

Jonathan and the others responded with a calm and composed tone, as they had just been talking about their daughter until just before.

「I’m sorry. I wanted to speak to father―――I heard you two talking.」

「That is.」

They both looked bitter that they had been overheard, and Lise smiled as if she didn’t care.

But,

「I understand. Sam has his position. I don’t want him to get hurt later because he didn’t get used to women. If that’s the case, why don’t you leave that role to me?」

Lise’s comment made Jonathan and Grace’s eyes widen in astonishment.
