How do these people think he's just a normal kid with a bit of talent?
Like he blew up the castle roof at birth!
And if your reason is "well the knights weren't their at that time"
Yeah, but the maids were.
And even if they were told to keep it a secret, they definitely don't act like people that know the truth and are only hiding it, I mean genuinely just think "wow he's so gifted, I bet in a few years he'll be amazing!
Like have they all forgotten what this kid did?!
How is a kid who immediately started reading spell books as a new born only just "a little special"?!?!?!
