On the other hand, Jin was being guided through the Shouro empires castle on the day Laojun healed Lishia and Pascaud.

The guide was Reinhart and another person.

Jin, our library is so good that I am sure it is not inferior to any other countries.

It was Gelhart Hilde Fon Rubis Shouro, the empress. She had already started calling Jin by his name. What a frank empress.

As her majesty the empress was accompanying them, they had a free pass to anywhere.

The guards also bowed and cleared the way.

He also had a look at the deepest layers of the library, the document treasury, which is normally strictly guarded.

Yes, please go in. I have work now so I cant stay any longer but, hmm, lets see, I will come back by noon. So lets have lunch together.

.

Saying that, the empress left the treasury without even waiting for Jins reply.

Hahh

Jin, you look like you want to say something.

Reinhart asked first. Jin replied,

Yeah. I never thought her majesty herself would be acting as the guide

Haha, thats just the type of person she is.

Even still, while I am happy being trusted this much being a foreigner, is it really okay being that lax? is what I also feel.

Jin himself didnt have any ill will but if she acts like this to other people as well then it is very dangerous. After all, theres also the probability of a spy or an assassin blending in.

As Jin said that, Reinhart shook his head.

Theres not much to worry about that. Because, her majesty sees the true nature of the people she talks to.

What?!

Jin was surprised. If she has such an ability, wont she be the best as a ruler?

No, its just based upon speculation.

Reinhart added a comment.

That might be true. I mean, if she had, she wouldnt just tell that she has such an ability to anyone like that.

Its just that, its also true that the empress judgement on anyone uptil now hasnt been wrong.

There are certainly people out there who have an eye for people. Is it an ability which multiplies that by tens or hundreds? It might also be more appropriate to call it a psychic ability rather than magic if it really does exist.

But it seems like it is different from reading a persons true feelings, Reinhart added. Jin was a bit relieved hearing that.

After all, it would be hard to bear that she read him thinking that she looked like his orphanages director. And more importantly, he wondered about what would happen if she knew Jins origin is from another world.

At this time, only Reinhart and Elsa know about it.

Although I do somewhat feel like I can trust her

Whether that was Jins intuition or if it was because the empress looked like his orphanages director, Jin didnt yet know.

Father, we have limited time. You need to read what you want to quick.

Jin returned to himself hearing Reikos voice.

Ah, yes, youre right. Then I will read up.

Saying that, Jin started scouring through the bookshelves.

Theres also records of previous wars, eh?

Yeah. Even this country had its fair of internal struggle. It also seems it had quite a lot of it.

As a Shouro empire citizen, Reinhart also has knowledge about its history.

Jin didnt have much interest in it but he requested Reiko to read them. Reiko can read upto 10 times faster than Jin and send the data over to Laojun for recording.

He also had Reiko read up on other topics such as particular products made in each areas and books about plants or animals.

And about the book Jin was looking for,

This, eh

About the story he heard from Reinhart long ago in Kunlun island.

Mm? Ah, that. I told you about it before, havent I?

That was the book which had details about the beginning of the world. In other words, a folklore.

A folklore about how theres another world on the other side of the sun and thats where the ancestors came from.

He hadnt met a storyteller like that in Serroa kingdom so he was looking forward to finding some records like this here.

Lets see now Hmmm

There werent more than a few pages of records there and the contents werent as detailed either.

Just that theres a world on the exact opposite side of the sun and that that world is much more bigger than this one.

And that chosen human ancestors came to this world on a soaring ship. All this was written simply there.

The only extra detail he found here was that that world is much bigger and that they came on soaring ship.

On the Earth, the stories are more of there being a Creator or giants who created the world. Here, it says people came from another world.

Jin thought that it had more authenticity in a sense. If so, then spaceship the soaring ship might have also existed in the past.

Jin was thinking of such a possibility when Reiko pulled on his sleeves to bring him back to reality.
