Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure-Chapter 724 There’s only one way

?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.

So in the end, I said, "You're partially right, we can't fix it. However, it isn't for any of the reasons that you mentioned."

Duke Nergiante had a very confused look when he heard this, but he still waited for me to explain.

I slowly said, "It's not that we don't have the material or the magicians to restore this. It's just that the part that is damaged is a special part of the array that can't be replaced. The moment that we try replacing it, it will cause the entire array to fail and the demon king will be released."

"Huh?" Duke Nergiante said with a shocked look on his face.

He turned back to look at the part that I had pointed out before saying, "Are you sure? It seems like it's only a small part of the rune that is eroded. As long as we get a skilled magician, we should be able to replace it."

I shook my head before pointing at the part that was eroded and saying, "Do you see this? This part that is eroded is actually connected to the main power line of the seal. The moment that we erase any part of it to fix it, it will immediately shut the whole thing down."

Duke Nergiante gritted his teeth when he heard this.

He looked at the seal again as if he was trying to find something that he could do, but there wasn't anything that he could do.

In the first place, he couldn't understand the ancient language to understand the blueprint of the seal. So even if he wanted to do something, he would only be making things worse since he wouldn't be able to do anything helpful.

After a long silence, Duke Nergiante suddenly said, "The library! Our library has books from previous generations! I'm sure that we'll be able to find some kind of information about this seal inside of those books."

The fourth prince and I revealed interested looks when we heard this, but I still shook my head and said, "There's no point since we still wouldn't be able to do anything. There's no way to fix this, that is that."

Duke Nergiante deeply knitted his brows when he heard this.

The captain of the guard seized this chance to come forward to say, "My lord, we shouldn't listen to these outsiders. We should look into this matter ourselves before figuring out a situation for this."

Duke Nergiante looked at this captain and he just slowly shook his head.

He didn't get angry with the captain since he knew that the captain of the guards was just speaking up for their dukedom.

However, Duke Nergiante already knew that there was nothing that they could do.

They didn't know about any of this in the first place.

So even if they wanted to do something about this, they wouldn't have reached this place without Duke Zwein leading them.

At the same time, there must be a reason why those books in the library had been ignored the entire time.

They were most likely written in the same ancient language as these scrolls.

They could get Duke Zwein to read this, but would he be willing to do so?

Not to mention, those books should be the hidden knowledge of their Nergiante Dukedom and shouldn't be shared that easily.

No matter how he looked at it, there were all kinds of things that were getting in his way…

Finally, Duke Nergiante turned back to look at me and asked, "You've already thought of something, haven't you?"

I slowly gave a nod before saying, "There's only one thing that we can really do."

Duke Nergiante took a deep breath to brace himself before asking, "What is this one thing?"

I said with a smile, "It's very simple, the only thing that we can do is release the seal on our own."

Everyone except for the fourth prince was shocked when they heard this.

In the end, it was the captain of the guards who reacted first by saying, "My lord, this is clearly a trick! He just wants to unleash the demon lord and destroy our dukedom!"

Duke Nergiante slowly came back to his senses when he heard this, but his reaction wasn't as extreme as the captain of the guard.

He raised his hand to stop the captain of the guard before looking at me to ask, "What do you mean by that? Wouldn't that just cause even more destruction?"

I ignored the glare coming from the captain of the guard and calmly said, "It's very simple. Since we have no choice but to let it out, we should let the demon king out on our own terms."

Duke Nergiante knitted his brows as he revealed a look like he didn't agree.

After all, this was a demon king.

A demon king was not something to play around with.

I didn't mind as I said, "As long as we can control where it comes out, then we can trap it and take it down."

Duke Nergiante still had a look of doubt on his face when he heard this, but he slowly said, "Alright, explain."
