Even in the middle ages you had to prove you are worthy of your title in front of a group of scholars by answering questions in latin with answers in latin.
So yeah, everyone who did go through classical education could read it, many spoke it, scholars even semi natively (as much as you can say it about a dead language).
The idea of only being able to read latin while looking up every third word in a dictionary is fairly new.

Somehow you ended up with the infamous Arsene Lupin drowsing on your couch, while you are trying your hardest not to jump out of your skin in excitement at the money and fame his new adventures will bring you, if only he would start talking.
You finally hear his pleasant voice telling you to pick up a pen and paper, and you think this is it, you're on the way to become a /lit/ meme, when he says:

25,15,21,12,1,26,25,2,1,19,20,1,18,4,19

Just as you are contemplating what the fuck is this, you notice through the window that light is being reflected in window as if someone is playing with mirror. And the numbers continue:

18,5,1,4,12,21,16,9,14,19,1,4,22,5,14,20,21,18,5,19

And with the final number he is out the door.

(hint: two thousand francs reward)
