"I can't accept such a request."
Hearing Queen Nerith's rejection of his request did not surprise him since he somewhat expected it, but that did not mean that he was going to give up in his request.
He needed their knowledge as finishing touches for his plan.
"You don't have to give me all the knowledge of the Silver Elves. I just need your books or scrolls on blacksmithing, metallurgy, and creation... And I also need your history books. Especially the ones before the Universal System appeared. You can restrict the knowledge I'm going to get."
There was no reaction from Queen Nerith and her children, and Corey's lips twitched. He couldn't believe that his second request was actually proving difficult for the Queen to accept.
He scratched the back of his head with a thoughtful expression.
