Chapter 198: She?
Lee watched Han Jin for a moment, and then said, "You might feel you’re being oppressed or whatever. But you know, you have a loving father and endless prospects in your life. Let’s take the alchemy, for example. In most worlds people have no clue it exists – the best they can do is to boil random herbs to make tea if they get sick."
"No way!" Han Jin widened his eyes in disbelief.
"Way." Lee said with a nod, "In less developed worlds people live thirty to forty years on average. Well, except for royalties."
"Royalties?" Han Jin asked.
"Mhm. The rulers. The kings." Lee said, "They live in huge, luxurious palaces and don’t do shit. Especially queens and princesses. They laze around all day, take baths and wear pretty dresses while commoners slave their lives away."
"Princesses? Tell me about them!" Han Jin’s eyes suddenly lit up.
’So you’re interested in girls after all?’ Lee grinned to himself.
But out loud he said, "I’m sorry I can’t tell you much. I know only one and she’s a real bitch. I’d rather tell you about a world with advanced technology where people drive carriages without horses and even fly ..."
Their conversation was slowly becoming natural, but Lee felt something was off. Besides the fact that he was shitting on world’s elites, his task here was to introduce the kid to the women stuff. Ignoring the patriarch’s instructions he lost himself, and began to tell about fun things that could lead the young lad astray, but for some reason no one interrupted him.
