Chapter 105: Asked to Marry the Granddaughter ②

Translated by AmaLynne

「―――Why would I do that?」

Sam was taken aback, not knowing why the story was about marrying Magnolia’s granddaughter.

(Wasn’t she just talking about something a little more serious?)

Magnolia is still smiling.

「Oh my, I think we have a good connection.」

「Sam.」

「What, interrupting all of a sudden.」

The Red Dragon taps Sam lightly on the shoulder.

Sam was expecting her to offer some kind of help, but she gave a thumbs-up and nodded in the affirmative.

「I don’t know about you, but you should make a baby. It’s good to have kids.」

「Mind your own business!」

He shouted at the useless mother dragon.

As Sam tried to wrap his head around the question of how this happened, Magnolia continued to speak as if to add insult to injury.

「If you like, let’s set a date for a blind date at a later date.」

「Wait a minute.」

「She is eighteen years old, a little older than Samuel-dono, but she is a good-natured girl.」

「No, no.」

「I’ll speak to Count Walker myself.」

「Listen to me!」

「Well, now that your treatment is over, I’ll report to the Count about the matchmaking as well.」

「Hey, listen to me!」

Sam, who had been treating her with courtesy, finally lost patience and shouted at Magnolia, who kept talking and talking.

Not showing the slightest sign of being offended by Sam, Magnolia bowed and walked out of the room, smiling,「Ohohoho!」

「Ew, she left without really listening to me! What is this a matchmaking process!?」

「What the heck, isn’t it good that you found a mate?」

Sam’s head is in his hands, and the Red Dragon looks at him strangely.

「I’m not sure if it’s been decided yet. Besides, I’m still a minor.」

「But you can have a child, do you?」

「Uhh, that, maybe.」

Even Sam is a normal boy. He has a sex drive like anyone else.

He even functions properly as a man.

However, just as in his previous life, he has not had the opportunity to procreate in this life.

「Then there is no problem. I hear that you are strong and have achieved a position. Then isn’t it your duty to procreate and preserve the blood of the next generation? Rather, why do you hesitate?」

「The dragon spoke to me like a human!」

「You seem to have misunderstood, but we dragons do not live free and unrestrained. Strong individuals like me have a duty to preserve the blood.」

「Heh. Humans and dragons have their ties to each other.」

「That’s the way it is.」

Sam is not just aiming for the top of the wizard world without thinking.

He knew that although being a court wizard was just a passing phase, there would be ties that would come with the position in a country.

「No one knows where or with whom you will get along. Perhaps it would be good for you to meet the granddaughter of Magnolia.」

「Even if you say so…」

「I had a contentious relationship with my husband, but we were surprisingly compatible as a couple.」

「You have a husband?」

「Of course I have a husband. He’s away at the moment. But I’m happy for you, Sam.」

「Hah?」

The Red Dragon began to laugh wickedly.

「If it had been my husband who attacked the country this time, the country would have been destroyed without a doubt.」

「That’s horrifying.」

「Well, now that you’ve been treated, I think it’s time for me to go.」

「What? Where?」

「Now that my wounds are healed, I’m going to take another bath. That’s good. It feels so good to be in hot water!」

「I’m glad you’re enjoying the human life.」

「Mm!」

The Red Dragon, with her wounds, completely healed, walked lightly to the bathroom.

Thinking of the scene of the dragon that attacked this country to destroy it and is now engrossed in taking a bath, Sam can’t help but smile.

Although the encounter was the worst, it was good that she and her children did not hate humans.

「Then again, marriage, eh?」

Sam, left alone, sighs as he takes a sip of his cold tea.

Her beloved Ur is gone, but she wants Sam to move on.

Moving on means more than just magic.

It also means falling in love with someone, getting married, raising a family, and leaving behind blood.

「I’m still a minor.」

Just lost Ur, and he still misses her every day.

But trying not to let her down, he’s moving forward firmly and taking it one step at a time, day by day.

Uncertain if he will ever meet a woman better than Ur, he doesn’t doubt that he might be able to start a family with someone someday.

But only if there is a woman who will accept Sam, who has no intention of erasing or hiding her love for Ur.

「That’s a difficult thing to do, isn’t it?」

Imagine what it would be like if it were you.

The person you would marry has a crush on someone else, and you would always be number two.

It would be disrespectful to the other person, and it would not be a true family.

「What am I supposed to do, I’ve never been in a relationship before?」

In Sam’s mind, he sees the face of Lise, the woman who confessed her love to him last night.

She is a very attractive person.

She was a respectable woman who had a painful past but was looking forward to the future.

Although he wanted to support her, he never expected that she would confess her feelings.

Sam also wonders why she confessed.

「I have to give a proper answer to Lise-sama before Magnolia-sama’s grandson. But what should I do?」

The time passed in vain as Sam was still unable to answer when he thought about his future with her and his happiness at being confessed to.
