Chapter 22: Chapter 17 – The Second Prince is Three Years Old (1)

"Fwoo..." Prince Reivan, who had just turned three years old lately, sighed in satisfaction as he closed the tenth picture book he read that day. He was the only one who knew he could read the words in it though, everybody else thought he was only looking at the pictures. "This was great."

'I thought I was in a medieval fantasy world, but I guess not. These books look like they're mass-produced. Plus, they wouldn't look out of place in modern earth's book stores. Well, if you ignore the story contents.' Reivan mused. He ran his hand through the smooth paper, and his eyes reflected the bright depictions of Knights fighting evil monsters and cultists in the book. 'My nation seems to put special importance on Knights since every single one of these has one of them in some form or another.'

Whenever he flew around with his mother or uncle, he noticed that there were quite a lot of them all around the country. Reivan felt a little bad about it, but he used [Supreme Insight] on them from time to time. He'd been somewhat traumatized by the ability for a while, since every time he used it on someone else, he seemed to always see something he shouldn't. Luckily, none of the Knights had anything to hide. All of them were Mortals with [Qi: Unleashed] and Might in the 1500s. Using insight on the maids, ordinary servants and even the ordinary citizens he could see from time to time revealed just how high a Might stat of 1500 was. Most of the people he used it on had a Might stat of only 10-30 after all.

'Crazy fuckers. How do they get it so high?' Reivan thought inwardly. He checked his own Might stat.
