Noah was wrong in the end.
He had predicted that the former king would be back in a week, but he was actually back in three days.
Once the novelty of retirement wore off, he found that he was completely bored.
After living in that high speed world of managing the kingdom for so long, it wasn't as if he would be able to settle down that easily. His personality had already developed because of the way that he lived for so long that it wasn't that easy for him to change it.
Used to the fast paced life, he was completely bored when he had nothing to do.
That resulted in the former king returning after just less than two weeks of retirement.
The excuse that he gave was that he was here to visit his family and have some dinner with us, but after dinner…he went to my study with me and Noah and started asking about different things with the kingdom.
