"So your saying that all our citizens are happier than other countries citizens?" They both say and I sighed.
"Well, no. Being able to acquire knowledge means your going to be sadder knowing your circumstances. Actually, they probably are happier knowing they have more, but if they check the records they won't be so happy. We only finally achieved all of this about fourty years ago, that really isn't long. Plus, overall, we've only been able to maintain it, not improve unfortunately. The funding simply isn't there, all the money we got from it in return is going to the orphanage house we have, since it's just getting off it's feet. The orphans is a place where can go, and the kids will we taught to read and write, as well as the girls learning cooking and sewing. The boys will be taught how to get a job and what to do. Some may become knights if they decide to train. Anyways the sewing works they started doing and the jobs the kids take to survive will be eventually how it supports itself with minimal help from the government. Added, then we have extra manpower and less deaths to starvation and illness because of bad conditions. Hopefully we can begin a work house for the families in a rough spot soon as well. Anyways for now the goal of the country is to handle it's orphans." I explain and they both nod.
"You really are a walking book aren't you? We can ask you almost anything and you know it!" They both grin at me and I sigh.
"Yes, however that seems to be my one big advantage, as apparently Mana can be neutralized I no longer truly have lee-way with magic. How irritating, perhaps I should find a way to get around it..." I thought for a moment, but without the Mana negator then it would be Impossible.
"People have been trying for centuries Rose, of it was so easy then wouldn't we have already found a way around it?" I sigh at that and nod.
"Well, we better scram before your mom shows back up." I again nod and they both take off out the door and disappear down the hallway. I leaned into my pillows and smiled at those two. Ahhh, well I'm glad they visited me, I'm terribly bored. I wonder when mom will be back from seeing her fiancee?
