200 Another Story: Wolf Girl Kingdom Walk (3) (2/2)

”For the time being, yes.”

”Heh... this amount of books. It's amazing, you.”

When I honestly admire it as awesome, Lang distracts himself by pushing up his glasses with his fingers.

”... after all, it's a shade job. It's not something to be praised for.”

”Is that true in this country? It's weird.”

”... weird?

”Everything starts with preparation and storage. Books are for that, aren't they? I think it's strange that the work that organizes it is not a commendable one. Aren't you working for the future?

Books are luxury. Richard couldn't make it himself, and he didn't have to. That's why it was only one of the rarities that was stolen from the outside. There was something left in Richards to find out who was out there.

Books are knowledge. If you can read the text, you can convey your knowledge to others besides communicating it verbally. It became more real when I came to the Kingdom of Palletia.

It is just as important to accumulate knowledge and prepare for the future as to prepare for hunger with food.

So I think it's a great job to collect and organize books so that someone can read them. Books are knowledge, but reading alone does not teach knowledge.

And if you don't look at the book, it's only natural, but you don't get the knowledge. I think it's amazing that people recommend books for what knowledge they want.

That's what I said, but Lang looked at me with his eyes round. It's depressing to see Miguel with that disgusting gaze again. The fact that the eyes of the two of them gathered makes me a little wobbly.

”Hmm, what...?

”... no, I remember being told something similar.”

While Lang raised his eyebrows slightly, he held his eyebrows down with his fingers raised. I can tell that exhaling tirelessly is not a very good impression for Lang.

”Words that resemble each other change your impression.”

It's embarrassing, Miguel.

”... did someone tell you something you didn't like?

”I hate that... no, that's not it...”

”I don't think he likes me somehow. Well, I'm Sister Wang.”

”Again?

Niconiko's smiling face on my back made me look subtle.

But I'm sure there's something else I'm saying. He's stupid, but he doesn't feel bad. Is something wrong?

”He... Sister Wang... no... Ricant is not exactly a people of my country... but...”

”... ah, I'm sorry. You were the royal family of this country. That was rude.”

”When you say that, Lang used to be rude, right?

”Ohhhhhhh!... if you'll excuse me, I think it's better to be careful not to mention His Majesty King Anisphia's sister. Even though you're with Algard.”

”Yeah, I'm sorry. Be careful.”

Isn't it nice to say that you don't like me because you don't like me? It's kind of annoying, but that's the way the Palatian kingdom works.

”I don't think I'm wrong about everything he says, but it's always been... sometimes I can't swallow it honestly.”

”I understand. He's with you, isn't he?

”What? Why am I on spearball here?

”I understand. If you always behave respectfully, you don't have to make such a thorn....”

”People are watching their normal behavior, and it's hard to be told if they can see the inside. I can say that I'm not a bad person, but I can't say that I'm a good person....”

”Are you accusing me of wandering around? Hey, you two? A little?”

”Shut up.”

”Yes... I'll shut up... I'm a stain on the bookshelf...”

Then I heard about Lang, and when I told him that I was having trouble spending time in the royal castle, he lent me some books with recommendations.

I was able to borrow easy-to-read and simple children's songs, gossip stories, and reference books on the history of the country. Now you can crush your free time, and it's a good kick to learn more about the Palatian Kingdom.

Thank you, Lang.

”No, this is the right place to talk. I hope you'll tell me more about Richards someday.”

”I think I'll be here for a while, if Lang is free.”

I shook Lang's hand and left the library as it was. Holding a book recommended by Lang in his hand.

”Somehow, I was surprised by the wavelengths of unexpected people and people....”

”... that? I was there, Miguel.”

”I'm gonna get hurt by a boulder, right?
