Chapter 133 The Knight of the Elk Family (Part 2)

Before he was allowed to enter the parlor, Prius had to once h a complete body search But this time it was a much more detailed search than the previous one From the top to the bottom, they had touched every possible place in which he could hide a knife, even his soles weren’t forgotten

He was then led into the hall and was finally able to see the person responsible for the Duke’s defeat – the 4th Prince of the Kingdom of Graycastle, the Lord of Border Town, as well as the new Lord of the Western Territories, Roland Wimbledon

The Prince carried the typical syray hair His face still looked very young, at ray hair, there wasn’t any other sign of his royal blood He didn’t wear a crown nor did he have any other kind of jewelry on his slender fingers, instead he was holding a quill in his hand Furthermore, he didn’t wear any bracelets either – all of this was a very rare sight when facing a member of the aristocracy

“Are you Prius Dessau, a knight belonging to the Elk Family?” Roland asked while he leaned back into his chair and looked at the parchment

“Yes, Sir,” When spoken to, Prius knelt down on one knee

He couldn’t believe it, such a young roup of miners and hunters to defeat the whole combined forces of the previous Lord of the Western Territories, Duke Ryan

“Are you able to read and write? You may stand up and answer”

“I can, Your Highness, this is a knight’s ht of so the tidohted civilians with good military achievehts of the younger generation are able to”

Over the past three decades, with the reduction in exploration and wars, the possibility of achievingcanonized had become smaller while at the saht If you didn’t pick up the pen and wasn’t able to read or write a document, it would become very difficult to rule over your own territory With the king’s establishe, the area at the western border of the Kingdom of Dawn had a sudden rise it the nu there But at the sahted was also placed at a new height

So now during the training to beco trainees would learn was how to read and write, while later on, if they wanted to rise higher in rank, they would also have to master a variety of etiquettes

But Prius couldn’t understand, why had His Royal Highness asked him this question?

“Very well,” the Prince nodded “Then it’s timent”

Hearing this sentence, Prius instantly held his breath

“There are two options you can pick froo to the North Slope Mine and mine there for twenty years to redeem your sins while your second options it to become a teacher and start to teach my people how to read and write Furthermore, as a miner you won’t be treated as a slave, you will be paid and every month you will have three days of rest But teachers are not only paid, they will get free housing and two days rest each week However, if you choose the latter option, you e of fifty, only then will you be allowed to lay down your post By that tier, you will still be paid as usual ”

After listening to all this Prius was a little relieved, sure enough, just like he had expected, they don’t have to face death or exile But these two options still left him very puzzled, it sounds like the job as a hness had also said that they would get a salary and… holidays?

And, as a teacher wasn’t it i and writing, I have no further knowledge And what hness could not truly believe that he could teach the civilians the complete aristocracy culture, could he?
