Lord: Marry the villain's daughter at the beginning?

Chapter 359 The Real City of Knowledge?

Complete victory. Gray Robe savored the word carefully after returning to his residence.

Historically, Castile had several victories and counterattacks, but in the end, due to various compromises, it failed to completely destroy the Avars. In the end, when the Avars recovered, they invaded Castile again.

After repeated cycles of this, the Avars had unknowingly gained enough territory to compete with the Alliance.

The young governor was right. If we were to fight, we had to eradicate the roots and prevent them from growing again. But Castile was also aware of this truth.

Every time there was an opportunity to drive the Avars back into the sea, internal voices began to say that the country's national strength was exhausted and it would be better to recuperate first. As time went by, they returned to the original starting point.

At this moment, the man in gray suddenly understood why the governor had not taken any further steps and had let the mascot royal family sit there. This was because he was still very young and had absolute control over the country. He did not need to rush at all. In other words, what the governor wanted was definitely not as simple as a throne.

He needed a big victory, a victory that would wipe out the roots, to help him legitimately ascend to the supreme position. At that time, the current king would not have the right to crown him.

Gray Robe suddenly felt a great deal of pressure on his head, because the governor was too young. Gray Robe could not imagine how much pressure Castile would be under after the governor achieved his goal and set his sights on Castile.

However, the man in gray robe soon calmed down. Since he couldn't resist, he might as well enjoy it.

The day of the ball is approaching. This is Castile's first and most important opportunity to appear in front of the nobles of Mu Continent. In Gray Robe's impression, as long as he can win the help of these nobles, the lives of His Highness and Castile will be better no matter what.

But when the man in gray opened the door of Rosalin's residence, he found Rosalin lying on the table with a tired look on her face.

"Your Highness?"

Today is a very important day. The little princess should have a good rest and face those nobles with the best attitude.

But at this moment, Rosalyn was staring blankly at the exercises in front of her.

After seeing the man in gray coming, Rosalin got up from the chair. Only then did the man in gray realize that Rosalin had changed into a dress, but now Rosalin's energy could no longer support the weight of the dress.

"Your Highness, what happened?"

The man in gray came up to Rosaline and looked at the things on her desk.

Dazzling symbols and calculation formulas.

It looked like an applied mathematics exercise, but when did His Highness become interested in such things? Shouldn't these be studied by the humblest apprentices?

"National Master, I have found many noble ladies in this country and asked them what the Governor's wife likes most."

Rosalin wearily recounted her experiences of the past few days.

“And then these things were stuffed into it.”

The man in gray robe's eyelids twitched.

"You mean, the Governor's wife likes these things?"

Gray Robe had seen all kinds of strange hobbies among the nobles, but this was the first time he had seen someone who liked to do exercises.

However, the more he looked at these exercises, the more the man in gray robe sweated.

As a scholar, Gray Robe keenly noticed from these exercises and materials that Capet's research on these physical and mechanical forces had formed a complete system, a system that was completely independent of magic.

This made the gray-robed man realize that the cannon might have been made in this way.

Rosalin nodded and said in a somewhat collapsed tone, "The standard afternoon tea for the ladies in this country is to sit together and discuss these topics while drinking dessert on a breezy afternoon."

"..."

Gray Robe didn't know what to say for a moment. Was there something wrong with this world?

Not to mention such abstract things as a group of noble ladies gathering together to discuss science and engineering exercises, such an important thing is actually just a research hobby of the noble ladies in the royal capital in their spare time.

How much does this country worship knowledge? Gray Robe even wanted to kneel down and pray to the god of arcane and wisdom.

The so-called city of knowledge built by those scholars in Castile is probably just like this. This is the real city of knowledge.

At this moment, Gray Robe even wondered if leaving His Highness here was the right choice.

"Your Highness, this is a very important opportunity. You must seize it. These exercises may contain the ultimate secrets of weapons that can be used even in places without demons."

The gray robe had a solemn expression, but Rosalin burst into tears on the spot: "But Master, these questions are too difficult. Am I not even as good as the big goose?"

It was then that Gray Robe discovered that the cover of the book that the ladies had given to Rosalyn read "An Introduction to Mechanics That Even a Goose Can Understand."

......

The ball finally began. With the help of makeup, Rosalin no longer showed any signs of fatigue or crying. This was mainly because Gray Robe had comforted her for a long time. The content of this book was indeed very easy to understand, but it was still a little too difficult for a little girl like Rosalin.

All the major nobles in the capital were present, which gave the Gray Robes, who had always been recruited by Lind, the opportunity to finally make friends with the nobles in the capital - this was what the Gray Robes considered the most important social activity.

Because that's how it is in Castile. If you want to do anything, you have to have good relations with the nobles under the king.

However, Gray Robe soon discovered something was wrong while talking to these nobles.

Not all the people present were nobles. Some were simply commoners from the North. They did not have any titles except for their positions, and their family trees all started from themselves.

During the conversation, Gray Robe discovered that the Governor did not seem to like the nobles very much. Two-thirds of the nobles in a central city had been killed, but the city was still able to operate normally.

Thinking of those nobles in Castile who seemed busy but no one knew what they were busy with, Gray Robe suddenly felt that those nobles were not that important.

While the Gray Robe was asking these nobles about the specific situation of the country and hoping that these nobles could help Castile, Rosaline also completely integrated into the circle of noble ladies.

Several ladies rubbed Rosalin's face and kept looking at Rosalin's dress, praising her dignified posture and gorgeous dress.

Although Rosaline's dress was not as well made as those of the women present, it had an exotic beauty.

Even Reina was amazed.

Although she was a little overwhelmed, Rosalin was still very happy because there were very few nobles in Castile who were so enthusiastic towards her.

What's more, this at least means that Rosalin no longer has to discuss issues that she can't understand like she usually does when she attends afternoon tea with these ladies. These ladies can finally act like ladies.

At this moment, seeing that the atmosphere was right, Reina snapped her fingers and said, "I thought of two big questions when I was doing research recently. It's a good opportunity for everyone to come together and solve them today."

"?"

Looking at those ladies who were enthusiastically catering to Reina and looking eager to try, Rosalin seemed to understand who was the source of those strange activities.
