The Reincarnated Wizard Who Will Eventually Become the Strongest

Chapter 132: Meet with Lady Hanae ④



Chapter 132: Meet with Lady Hanae ④

Translated by AmaLynne

Murasaki Magnolia and Murasaki Hanae were having a grandmother-granddaughter conversation in the carriage on the way home after their blind date.

Of course, the topic of conversation was Sam.

「How was Samuel-dono?」

「Hmm. He’s a good man. He seemed to be having trouble with the matchmaking, but he was thinking ahead. I think he is sincere.」

「Grandmother is relieved that you seem to have liked the gentleman.」

「But she has yet to show me his strength.」

The granddaughter, who was always trying to be strong, sighed.

「You call Albert Frege weak, but he was strong. There is no doubt about that.」

「The strength I seek is different from his. If anything, I think Delight Sinatra-dono was stronger. He is just a pushover. He has no skill or anything. He is just a firepower fool. His Majesty, who made him the strongest in the kingdom, is also an idiot.」

「Please stop. Good grief…Delight-dono was a great magician, but it was a mutually agreed-upon duel, and he lost.」

For Hanae, Albert, the former strongest wizard in the kingdom, was not the strongest.

She once saw Albert’s fighting style on the battlefield and was displeased by the way he fought, as if he were a child with disproportionate power who was shaking the weak.

There is nothing against power-type wizards. If anything, Hanae is a power type.

However, she does not fight in such a way that she bullies the weak and has no skill.

Delight was much more worthy of the name of the strongest fighter than Albert.

「If you decide that he is strong based on his firepower alone, then Ulrike Scheidt-Walker should have been the strongest in the kingdom.」

Magnolia furrowed her brow at her granddaughter’s words.

「Ulrike was not interested in those titles. ――I think it was because she was ill.」

Magnolia was one of the few people who knew that Ur was suffering from an incurable disease.

When Ur was looking for a cure, she turned to Magnolia, the best recovery magician in the kingdom, next to the doctor.

However, there was no way to cure an incurable disease, not even for Magnolia.

Short time after making a promise never to mention that she was ill, Ur left.

She thought she was looking for a place to die, but she met a wonderful disciple and was able to entrust everything to him.

As a fellow magician, she is envious.

Magnolia has a successor named Hanae, but she thinks it will be difficult for her to inherit everything.

It is not that there is anything wrong with Hanae, but simply that her granddaughter and herself are different as wizards.

This does not matter if they are family members or not.

Just like the individuality of each person, magic has its personality. That is the only difference.

However, Ur met Sam, who was on the same wavelength as she was.

This is like a miracle. Or was it fate that they should meet?

「I didn’t think she was sick when she fought me and beat me up before.」

「Hanae, you did such a thing?」

Even though she is her granddaughter, her quarrelsome nature is the least of her worries.

She is an excellent magician, but she is still mentally immature.

As a grandmother, she only wishes she would find a good companion and settle down more.

「I have fond memories of being knocked down with only body-enhancement magic, without being able to use magic properly. Her death was the same as the loss of this country’s treasure.」

「But she has an apprentice who will inherit everything.」

「That’s why I met Samuel Scheidt, even though I wasn’t keen on the idea of an arranged marriage. He was more than I expected. I am glad I met him.」

When she sees that her granddaughter, who normally has difficulty expressing her emotions on her face, is excited with a slight blush on her cheeks, Magnolia is hopeful that the reaction will be surprisingly positive.

「The magical power he can sense is greater than mine. I’ve heard that he is also skilled. I’m excited just thinking about what would happen if we fought.」

Hanae wanted to fight with Sam, so she provoked him, but he didn’t get on board.

Despite her rude words and actions, she respected Sam for fighting the dragon.

Although Hanae is good at fighting, he would be terrified if asked to fight a dragon.

She heard that Sam actually fought it and fought it evenly. Then, instead of defeating it, they had a conversation and made peace with it.

Hanae was honestly impressed with Sam, who found a solution other than fighting and winning.

She would not have been able to imitate it herself.

Above all, because he was able to fight the dragon as an equal, he was able to have a conversation with it.

If he is weaker than dragons, the dragon would not have listened to him.

「I’ve told you again and again, don’t fight randomly.」

「Boo~」

「I, too, do not want my granddaughter to be cut in two and then turned to ashes. However, you will not marry into Samuel’s family, will you?」

「Yes.」

「My head hurts. What should I do?」

If possible, she would like Hanae to marry Sam.

There are few people with whom grandchildren who are too straight, for better or worse, can be just as they are without being taken advantage of.

Even having a grandmother who is a court wizard, Hanae is often looked at with a certain coloring, and because of this, she has been approached by people with ulterior motives on many occasions.

Fortunately, she does not care too much about it, but she wants her to make the biggest event in her life, marriage, a success if possible, and she wants her to be happy.

Hanae probably knows that Sam is more than capable of doing so himself. On top of that, she wants to test him with her own body, which is a bad quality.

She couldn’t help but laugh and sigh at her battle-junkie granddaughter.

「Don’t worry, Grandmother. I know Samuel is strong, so I will observe him for a while.」

「Observe?」

「If possible, I would like to fight, but if not, I would be happy to just observe. If he has the strength I think he has, I will gladly marry him.」

Somehow sensing what her granddaughter was about to do, Magnolia apologized inwardly to the person who was about to cause her trouble.

「You mustn’t trouble Count Walker too much. He seems to be taking a lot of stomach medicine lately.」

「Hmm.」

The fact that Hanae was more interested in Sam than she had expected made her feel that the blind date had been a success.
