"The Void Ores?" The person who was reporting had a confused look on his face when he heard this.
I nodded before saying, "Tell everything that you know about these Void Ores."
Everyone in the room looked confused when they heard this, though it seed like there were different reasons for the confusion.
Klein and the others were confused since they didn't know what these Void Ores were either.
But the ones that ca from the forr Midra Kingdom were confused like they didn't know what was special about these Void Ores. They were confused like I had asked them a question about sothing that everyone should know.
It was the regent who took over explaining what the Void Ores were.
The Void Ore was a special ore that was found in the Midra Kingdom's land and the reason it wasn't as well known was because...
"It has no use at all."
The Void Ore was hard to break down and it seed to be resistant to magic to a certain extent.
Well, resistant was a bad way to put it since it was better to say that it directly absorbed magic or rather it absorbed mana out of the air.
That ant that even natural fire that had traces of mana in it would be weakened because it would be absorbed by the Void Ore.
Right now, the only reason that it was being mined was because of how hard it was. It was used in different places as a type of paperweight rather than being used for anything proper.
The few samples that were lted down with special flas were turned into special shields that were strong against magicians, but these things weren't used for long either.
After all, there were rumours that the Void Ore shields would explode.
It wasn't just a rumour actually.
Since the regent was the forr second prince, he had access to records that no one else could access. Those records showed that in the past, when they used one of the Void Ore shields too much, it suddenly exploded.
No one understood why it exploded like that, but no one dared to use items made from Void Ore that easily since then.
They were afraid that the sa thing would happen where the Void Ore would explode like before.
So all of the Void Ore shields that had been made before were stored in the royal treasury.
It did take quite a bit of effort to make these Void Ore shields, so they were considered treasures.
After hearing everything that the regent had to say about the Void Ore, I was filled with excitent.
Though I did keep a calm look on my face and didn't show any of the excitent that I felt. The more that I heard about this, the more certain of a guess that I had about the Void Ores. After all, it seed like the only logical explanation for the properties of the Void Ores. But I didn't let myself get too excited just in case I was wrong.
If I let myself get too excited, then I would just be disappointing myself in the end.
The system hadn't said a single thing even though the regent had said all of this, so there was no way of confirming if what he said was real or not. At the sa ti, there was no way of confirming if my guess was correct or not.
The only thing left for to do now was...
"Show a sample of the Void Ore. I'm sure that you have a sample in the castle, right?"
Everyone was once again surprised and confused when they heard this.
They all looked at with a strange look as if they couldn't understand why I was so insistent about this Void Ore. But there wasn't anyone that said anything since they didn't have enough information to say anything.
They just waited to see what would happen.
The regent paused for a few seconds, but he eventually nodded in agreent before saying to everyone, "Then let's adjourn the eting here. We'll co back tomorrow and continue this eting then."
Then after that, he stood up and waved at to follow him as he walked out of the room.
Though they had been dismissed, it didn't seem like anyone was planning to leave.
They were all staring over at as I stood up to follow the regent.
At the sa ti, there were a few people that ca along as if they wanted to see what would happen.
There were Klein and a few other royal guards, as well as people from the forr Midra Kingdom.
All of them were higher ranked than the others, which was why they had been chosen as the representatives to follow .
I followed the regent without a word until we arrived at what seed to be a storage room. However, this wasn't just a simple storage room.
The luxurious decorations on the door, the powerful guards that stood at the entrance, and all the different small things about this place made it clear that this was a very special place.
This was the royal treasury.
The regent just gave a simple nod to the guards that were at the door before saying, "Open the doors."
The guards were surprised to hear this and to see us here, but they still followed the regent's orders.
When the doors opened, there was this sparkle that ca out from inside.
All of the things in this royal treasury were the precious items that had been stored by the forr Midra Kingdom's royal family over the years. Any one of these things would be considered a priceless treasure if they were taken out, but they were all gathered here. However, the regent just ignored all of this as he headed in a certain direction.
Only when he reached a corner did he pick sothing up and turn around with it in his hand. "This is the Void Ore shield."
