Bab 717: I want to solve this for you

Both the fourth prince and I were surprised to hear this.

The two of us just looked at the duke who had a calm look on his face with one brow raised.

Then the two of us looked at each other as if we were seeing what the other person thought.

But in the end, I said with a smile, "It seems like you aren't playing around."

The duke just returned the smile as he said, "I don't think that I have the room to play around. It's better to make things clear so we can handle things as quickly as possible."

There seemed to be a double meaning to the words that Duke Nergiante said.

That was not missed by the fourth prince and me as we both had looks of understanding in our eyes after he said this.

It seemed that Duke Nergiante was sharper than we gave him credit for.

This would certainly make things easier for us.
