Beast King'S Crippled Mate

44 Chapter 44: What about our cubs?

Swan started to get nervous as she tried to get her point across. It might be true that they had a completely different culture, as the beastmen were raised to be warriors.

But Swan knew well enough that you needed more than just raw strength to build a proper kingdom. People needed to be educated, or at least know more than just fistfighting.

She had observed the knights at Holy Achate Palace's training ground and realized most of the knights and commanders were smart, not just strong.

She truly wanted the kingdom to grow because it seemed that Gale was proud of his achievement. Thus, she racked up her brain and asked, "Um, are these soldiers married?"

"Some of them, yes. Why do you ask?"

“And where are their spouses now?" Swan continued inquiring.

"Many of them have their mates in their clan. This kingdom is newly reformed, even the beastmen and peasants are just a bunch of tribes mixed into one, and gather their food outside of the kingdom," Gale explained without hiding anything from his mate.

“So, uhm... Kingdom of Beastmen only provides safety?” Swan asked but then realized that she was being rude, so she stammered, -1-I'm sorry. I–I didn't mean to be rude. I just... want to know more."

Swan lowered her head ashamedly, "S-sorry...

"Don't apologize. You deserve to know the kingdom's matter as my mate," Gale rubbed her blonde hair gently. "For now, yes. The kingdom only serves as a fortress."

Swan sighed in relief as she was pardoned. Then she continued asking, “Then..... uhm, how do you get money for the kingdom's treasury?"

"From wars, of course," Gale replied as if it was the most obvious thing. "I won every war I'm in and got a prize for my victory. It has always been like that in the beastmen world."
