―――Four years later.

Sam Scheidt was traveling around the world with his master, Ur Scheidt.

He had achieved his goal of traveling around the world.

Every day was an adventure.

Strange monsters, various tribes, countries that developed differently from land to land, everything was fresh and interesting.

With Ur, he could go to the end of the world.

He even thought so.

In terms of magic, Ur spends a lot of time trying to develop Sam’s talent.

At first, Sam’s skill,『Cut-through』, was thought to be a treasure trove.

However, Ur, who had the ability to call herself a genius wizard, answered that, unlike Sam, he should use his skill effectively with magic.

「Specializing in cutting isn’t just about swords, is it? You can use magic to cut.」

Sam’s eyes lit up at Ur’s idea.

And he immediately put it into practice.

He found that he could make use of his skills by using magic as a slash, and by swinging his arms, which were covered in fire and ice, as if they were swords.

The skill『Cut-through』was effective even with hand swords that were fired from a body that had been strengthened.

Then, he was told that it is time to increase the number of techniques.

In addition to training in magic, he also trains in physical combat.

To put it simply, it was tough.

Ur, who excelled in both magic and physical training, was a strict master who did not tolerate whining.

She never took it easy on him because he was only ten years old, and she always trained him seriously.

「I’m dying, I’m dying, I’m dying, I’m dyiiiiiiiiiiiiiiIIIIIIIINGGGGGGGGG!」

Sam doesn’t know how many times he screamed.

But when the Master ruffled her scarlet hair.

「Don’t worry, no one has ever said they were going to die and actually died.」

She said this, and instead of relaxing her hand, she imposed even more intense training.

「Goddamn tormentors! Bully! Sadist!」

Sam was also surprisingly tough, and even though he complained to Ur, he was able to overcome all the harsh training.

And then he found out,

「Huh?」

Sam was now able to unleash a blow that could rival a magic sword.

This was Ur’s seal of approval, and one of the most important things that had given Sam confidence in himself. 𝚋𝚎ｄｎｏ𝚟𝚎ｌ.ｎ𝚎𝚝

Their days together continued.

When she found out that Sam had an aptitude for fire magic, which Ur was the best at.

「Let’s learn it in the home of fire magic. Let’s go to the Land of the Rising Sun!」

And so they crossed the sea to an island nation to the east.

The Land of the Rising Sun is a closed country, and Sam and his master were not welcomed at first, but as they beat the crap out of anyone who tried to antagonize them, their skills were soon recognized, and they found themselves becoming clients of the royal family.

It was fortunate that he was able to learn some of the secret magic.

Not only Sam, but also Ur was very happy to have acquired some magic that she had not yet seen.

The King of the Land of the Rising Sun personally asked Sam「Would you like to serve my country?」, but Sam politely declined the invitation, and returned to the continent, moving from place to place once again.

Whenever she gets a tip that there is a strong monster, he goes to defeat it, saying it will be good training for Sam.

When Sam managed to defeat the monster, even though he was dying, he would receive a reward and use the money to have a little fun, and then immediately go back to training.

The days went on like this.

By the time Sam met Ur, two years had passed, and he had reached B-rank adventurer.

His talent for magic also grew steadily, to Ur surprise.

There is no attribute magic that Sam is not good at.

This seems to be a very rare case.

Everyone has their strengths and weaknesses, but Sam excelled in fire and darkness, and was able to use all the other attributes as well.

He learned several levels of body-enhancement magic, which he had been using since his early days, and he was also able to learn the flying magic that only a limited number of wizards could use without difficulty.

This was probably due in part to Sam’s talent, but maybe Ur’s teaching was also good.

Ur was very sincere about magic.

She patiently taught Sam difficult magic over and over again until he learned it.

Sometimes Sam would raise his voice in frustration, but she would encourage him, sometimes scold him, and stay with him until he mastered it.

Sometimes she was a bit on the spartan side, but that was probably just the charm.

When he learned flying magic, he sometimes used a rough technique that knock him down from the sky and Ur saying,「Learn it if you don’t want to die.」

Sam adored Ur, who was at a far higher level as a wizard, as a mentor, and she also fell in love with him as a woman.

It was his first love, including in his previous life.

But Sam was still a child, not yet an adult.

He and Ur, a wonderful wizard, are out of proportion in terms of age and ability.

Therefore, Sam has one goal in mind.

「When I become a wizard on par with Ur, I will confess my love to her.」

He made up his mind to do so and continued to work hard.

In a way, it was probably the most important driving force for him.

After that, Sam continued to train in magic, fight monsters and criminals, and have a lot of fun in the name of rest, and four years passed in the blink of an eye.

He had never had such a fulfilling time in his life, including his previous life.

―――That was why Sam had made a mistake in his thinking.

He had thought that his days with Ur would last forever.

Adventures with the one he loved, the joy of acquiring magic, the certainty of growing stronger.

He did not doubt that these happy days would last forever.

―――But that was just Sam’s naive misunderstanding.
