Laurenz Herring had been called to his father Kendrick's study.

"How's the wound?

"Much better. The Duke of Alway has called for a renowned recovery magician, so he's healing quickly."

Ten days had passed since the national treason perpetrated by Gallagher's parents and children.

Laurenz, who had been caught staring down, was battled and wounded to protect Lars, a friend and prince. Even now, he is not feeling well enough and is taking care of himself and is off school because he was an unprecedented major injury to the Count boy.

"Then I should have. The royal palace has informed you. He said he could be a court magician if you wanted to."

"Am I a court magician? Didn't you just name your candidate for court magician until the other day!

This is the first time I've seen him face to face with a father who was busy after the incident. Shortly after the incident, Laurenz was asleep because of an injury, and after that, as Earl's homeowner, my father did so little that he was rarely in the mansion.

"That's all we've accomplished. I'll be honest with you because it's you, but I didn't think Gallagher was going to try to harm the royal family. As a former member of the Royal Sorcery Division, I am ashamed, of course, of his actions, of those who were fooled by sweet words and joined in treason"

I remember hearing my father mourn. Kendrick Herring has a past that belonged to the Royal Sorcery Division before succeeding to the countenance. When Leonard was not yet the captain of the regiment and a member of the group, I had heard that he seemed unfamiliar but synchronized.

Kendrick has since succeeded in his countenance and has left the Sorcery Division to study territorial management.

I guess there's a lot to think about the ancient nest having committed national treason. The father had no choice but to observe his son's mood.

"I'm sorry. You've become foolish along the way."

"No, Father's feelings, I can't do everything, but I know"

"... well. Let's get back to it. You are treated on hold in the Royal Palace, but you are to be rewarded for solving Gallagher's plot. One of them, not to count, but the idea of giving you the status of court magician after saving the country's crisis is not wrong."

"But it's too steep, it's confusing"

"I guess."

For better or worse, Laurenz was a normal boy.

Though there were shortcomings that were easily emotional, the school treated a few privileged students one step inferior, but with excellent grades. Because of the good care of my classmates, I can also remember from teachers.

He was a proud son from his parents.

Because her mother is overprotective, there was talk of a privileged student, but she refuses. As for Kendrick, it bothered him, but in the end, it was the result of drawing the will of his wife Yumana.

But Laurenz was able to sublimate that thought by becoming friends with him with the students who are privileged students - especially with feelings that mixed envy with Jared Murphy's complex.

And if you realize it, you have overcome numerous challenges on your own, and you have a royal hand in the position of court mage. The rest is up to my son.

"Laurenz. I'm proud of you as a father. Yumana is angry at you for doing something dangerous with her mouth, but inside, she's not happy with her son's accomplishments."

Beyond my father, who was only a member of the Sorcery Division, I was named a candidate for the Sorcerer of the Court, and at the end of the day I was chosen as the Sorcerer of the Court, who was only to be elected twelve in the country. There's no way I'm not proud of you.

My wife, who is overreacting to her son being in danger, should also want to raise her voice and praise her in her heart. But if I do that, I can't because my son is still in danger in the future.

What a clumsy thing. And my wife's clumsiness sometimes felt inherited from my son.

"However, while I am proud, I am also worried and anxious as a parent that I would have been in danger of not knowing what would have happened if I had been at all wrong. Even if you become a court magician in the future, it doesn't make you happy to let go when you're still underage."

"I know very well that your father and mother have truly come to know me."

"Then that's fine. I'll leave it up to you to be a court magician or not. You don't want it to be from Yumana, but he also says he doesn't want to crush your future. We decided to respect our son's opinion."

"Thank you. I'd like to think about it slowly."

We are now at a branch where the future of Laurenz will be determined.

If you become a court magician, a glorious future awaits you as a magician. At the same time, they will go around with the dangers of their parents guiding them.

But more disturbing than that is whether you have something worthy of the status of court magician.

If you don't have multiple magic attributes like your best friend, you can't use ancient petrified magic. Like two court magicians who got along and became mentors, I don't even realize I'm an excellent magician.

As many of our predecessors are elected court magicians in their twenties and thirties, there is great concern that Raulenz, still a teenager and immature, will have an important place for the nation.

"Laurenz."

"Yes, sir"

You realize the anxiety of such a son, Kendrick serves and gives a voice that cares.

"I said I'd leave it to you, but I didn't throw it round. You can always consult, and you can visit your mentors."

Nevertheless, I guess the court magician who knows Laurenz ends up having to give his own answer because even the unfamiliar court magician appreciates him and pushes him against the court magician.

"Whatever conclusions you draw, I promise I will respect your opinion"

I may not rely on you as a parent, but that's all I could do to tell you.
