Chereads / Returnee's mom / Chapter 25 - Nervous prince

Chapter 25 - Nervous prince

Kagura woke up like every other morning, doing her routine and then lying in bed while reading books, that she had borrowed. She decided not to visit the library right now because she had promised to look for a good book with Lacy.

She didn't know why he would try to help her but it was appreciated. The current book she was reading was about weapons. She had her old weapon made from a core of a Heaven monster's core.

The monsters were categorized in named classes. Ground class, mountain class, heaven class, planet class and galaxy class.

The people on this realm only knew about the heaven type and they were the max level monsters on this realm. Kagura however knew about the stronger one, they were immensely powerful monsters but luckily, they mostly lived in peace.

They didn't want strong beings to hunt them down and make weapons of them, if they made any trouble. Her current weapon was made from a core of a heaven dragon and her robe made out of its skin.

She really liked the set, but she knew that there were more powerful ones. She would make it a war scythe still but she wanted it to be sharper and heavier. She didn't that she had to change her robe but if the monster is good material for it, then she'll make it.

The book she was reading was telling the story of how different parts matter for the weapon. The blade, structure and how the core can make the weapon even stronger if it's made from a monster that suits the battle style or the user.

This was something she didn't know. The core was from a dragon, and dragon's style was not even close to Kagura's. She used speed, trickery, illusions. On the other hand, dragons use pure raw power and flames to destroy everything.

So she needed a core from a monster that would fight the same way she did. Should she start collecting now? She knew that the third realm was the best for making weapons but she had to have the core already at that point.

Where would she find stronger than heaven class monster from the fifth realm? It was impossible, only if some idiot decided to go to a lower realm with them being made weaker.

On the third realm she would find the other materials better than from here, so she should really wait until then. However she would need one thing before going there with the core. Something to pay for the weapon.

She had absolutely no connections, so she also didn't know any black smiths and that was a problem. She didn't know what to pay with for the weapon, she would have to figure that one out too.

During this time Lacy, was getting ready. He knew, that Kagura was blind so he didn't bother dressing any differently with no special haircut or something like that. Instead, he used expensive perfume, moisturized his hands. Now it would be more comfortable for her to...

Nothing, he was getting carried away. At the same time, that the cold prince was getting ready his two friends were secretly spying on him.

"What is he doing?"

"No idea."

The blond prince was known for not caring about anyone. He always had the same cold face on and did not do anything to please girls or anyone else. There was a rumor that not even the king has seen him smile once.

Ari and Salim however knew that it was not true. He was just afraid to talk because all the girls were scared of him or only playing with him to get money or power. So what made the prince to do all of this, they would find out.

It was already dinner time. Kagura stood up and marked the book to know where she should continue. After that she wore her blindfold and walked towards the cafeteria. The prince and his friends were also making their way for the dinner.

They noticed how Lacy was getting nervous and walking faster than usual. They were exchanging looks among themselves, trying to figure out what was going on.

Today for dinner it was a commonly known and liked food. It was made from a flat bread with a crunchy crust, with some sauce and toppings on top of it. It was called pizza and the most liked one had sauce made from tomatoes, pork or boar, cheese and pineapple.

All the princes took a pizza for themselves and sat down to eat. Again Lacy shocked his friends because he had taken many paper pieces that people mostly used to wipe off dirt or food. It looked like he had enough to cover himself with it.

He even ate in a weird way. He had his face directly above the place but the rest of his body far away. he was eating the slices quickly so it looked really funny and weird at the same time.

Ari was almost laughing but kept his cool. Even the rest of the students were giggling or raising their eye brows at the prince. He devoured the whole pizza while Ari and Salim were only halfway through.

"Sorry, I have to go somewhere."

After saying that to his friends he stood up, returned the plate, wiped his hands and face, then walked away. Ari and Salim nodded to each other, also ate their pizzas in only a couple bites, returned the plates and rushed after Lacy.

At the same time Kagura was had returned from the cafeteria. She had gone to dinner before the three men, so she had enough time to eat in peace. She made sure that her blindfold and robe were fine and then stepped inside the door, that led her to the library.

She was just standing there, waiting for the prince to show up and he did. She heard him walking towards her.

"Hey, here I am."

"Hey."

Kagura really wasn't a big talker.

"Are you ready to look for some good books?"

"Yeah."

"Good, let's go here."

Lacy was not sure, if Kagura would even know where they were going. And Kagura was thinking the same. She could just tell him, that she hears his steps. So Kagura turned towards the direction, that the man was going and followed him.

Lacy was at the same time relieved but disappointed.

They walked in the library from shelf to shelf and every time Lacy grabbed some kind of book and carried it with him. Kagura quietly followed behind, she had no idea what the man was doing. She thought that he would only give a list or something, not pick them and keep for himself.

At the same time a pair was following them from a safe distance. They could not mutter a single word to themselves and could only stare with wide eyes as the two were walking. Luckily Salim was also learning light magic, he used the magic to make them invisible, like a mirror would reflecting the light.

They did not want to believe what was happening, the prince was walking around with a WOMAN. And she didn't even seem nervous at all, they had not seen her face yet so they had no idea who it even was.

They must find out the woman's identity and make sure the prince is not getting played again.
