Chapter 705 Without knowledge

Chapter 705 Without knowledge

The next morning, we went back to the castle.

It wasn't to meet with the king, but rather because there was something else there that we wanted to see.

The prime minister and other ministers were up bright and early to greet us, but they were surprised when they heard where we wanted to go.

"The royal library? Is that really all you want to do today?"

The prime minister asked this with a surprised and confused look when he heard this.

After all, he didn't think that the library was that valuable that it would need inspection, but he also didn't dare neglect us. So the prime minister and the ministers all quickly led us to the royal library. nove(l)bi(n.)com

Once we were there, the fourth prince just ignored them as he started going through the books that were here.

Seeing this, there was a bit of understanding that appeared in the eyes of the prime minister and the other ministers.

It seemed that this group from the Kite Kingdom was just here to read books at the request of this Count Navar. It seemed that they weren't really interested in anything else other than the books.

But they also recognized that this was an opportunity for them.

This royal library was a restricted place, but that was only for normal people.

For nobles like them, it was easy to gain access.

That also included their daughters.

During this time, they had been trying to figure out a way to introduce their daughters to this group from the Kite Kingdom so they could earn some benefits from sending their daughters to them. However, it seemed like nothing would work since they never stayed still and always rejected visits from others.

That was my way of getting a bit of revenge for how he had forced his way into coming with me.

But since all of the girls were ignored, there was nothing that they could do except sit nearby with books in front of them, as if they were pretending to read. However, it was easy to see that they were looking in this direction the entire time.

The fourth prince and I just ignored them as we had our own little conversation.

"So, how is it?" I asked all of a sudden.

The fourth prince gave a sigh before saying, "As expected, it is as bad as you think."

"Is that so?" I raised a brow when saying this.

The fourth prince gave a slight nod before pointing at the book in front of him, as if he was pointing out a part in the book. But he said, "Just take this book as an example. It was covered in dust when I picked it up, showing that they never even bothered reading it or taking care of it. However, as soon as one reads this book, they will understand just how much knowledge is in this book."

I leaned in to take a look at the page that the fourth prince was on and couldn't help slightly knitting my brows.

It wasn't that I could see what he was referring to, it was that I couldn't understand what was written on it. There was this strange language on the page that I just couldn't understand at all.

It was no mystery why they didn't care about this book, but I was surprised that the fourth prince was able to read this without a problem.

It seemed that he was even more high spec than I thought he was.

The fourth prince just ignored the way that I looked at him and continued by saying, "It's no wonder this kingdom is like this. There's no knowledge for them to survive on at all. They are just doing the bare minimum to keeping their kingdom from falling apart, it just takes a single poke for it all to break."

I revealed a faint smile before saying, "Then you've made up your mind?"

The fourth prince gave a nod before saying, "Right, I know what we'll take."
