Chapter 282: Make A Choice
"Living like royalty isn't suited for most people. It is mostly burdensome." Adam said. He expected such a reaction at the end.
"You have been through that?" Nobara's ears perked up.
With his age and power, it was possible for him to go through the castles when the real rulers were around.
"Yeah, but I didn't like it."
"How bad was it?" Noticing the heavy sigh she wanted to know more about it as this sounded like a fun story.
"Felt like I was lying on a bed of nails." But it wasn't anything she hoped for.
Adam didn't enjoy his time in those palaces. He wasn't given the chance or leisure to do so because of his identity. The worst part came from the people living in the palace, may that be the maids, knights, ministers, nobles, and even the royal family. They bothered him in every way possible which is why he didn't stay in populated places unless absolutely needed.
"Must've been hard, huh?" Even if Adam didn't tell her directly, Nobara could understand how bad the experience was for him from his face alone. In a way, it felt like the situation was worse than she could think.
'I shouldn't have brought that up... and I don't know what to say either.' Noticing the mood taking a weird turn she sighed. But, as she searched for a way to restore the mood her phone went off.
