Everyone looked at me with a confused look when they heard this.
The only one that wasn't confused when I said this was the fourth prince.
He had a look on his face like he understood what I was saying, which meant that he knew just how serious this was.
After a moment of silence, Duke Nergiante asked, "What do you mean by it's a problem? If we know where the problem is, doesn't that make it easier for us to fix it?"
But after a pause, he added, "Or could it be that because it's ancient magic, we can't fix it? Or is it that we're missing some kind of material to fix it?"
Seeing that I didn't say anything in response to this, Duke Nergiante actually became even more anxious until he finally said, "Stop keeping it a secret already and tell us already."
I gave a deep sigh before saying, "I was just trying to figure out how to say it."
Duke Nergiante looked at me with a look like he was still waiting for me to speak.
