Dear Broom Knight

"Baron, please, just listen to me!" Taylor desperately banged on the study door.

Cesca, who had originally come to report to Lowry, couldn't help but take a few steps back as she looked at her brother's desperate expression.

Her own workload was already ridiculously heavy, and she had no intention of working even a minute of overtime.

Especially since Taylor was mainly responsible for the work at the knight training grounds, which was incredibly annoying... It was all because of that Sir Alex who didn't go with his cousin to the earldom, and was wholeheartedly staying in the Gzael Barony, spending his days with truly innocent children.

That guy was a real handful, and he always hoped that the Living Feather Knights could be transformed into a real military establishment... The current standard of noble private armies, divided into main and deputy groups, was flexible, but couldn't participate in larger-scale wars.

After all, those who only cooperated with dozens of people for years were very different from those legions that were good at coordinating hundreds of people.

However, was Lowry the kind of person who could be persuaded by a righteous knight?

Alex's heartfelt suggestions were all defeated by the phrase 'mages don't go to the front lines'.

Lowry only wanted, and only needed, a mobile knight order that could protect the territory, and didn't need to worry about that.

Anyway, as a lord who had a close relationship with His Majesty the King, he never cared whether his people planned to join the Royal Army.

Although he was very strict about the children entering his knight order, he was not as demanding as other territories.

This was actually Lowry's greatest tolerance as a lord: if you want to make a name for yourself, go to the Royal Army.

As for whether you can get in, that has nothing to do with him.

Anyway, although the Lowry Barony was the only territory besides the Hamilton County and the Montes County in the Northern Border that had an awakening magic circle, he really didn't care where these children with detected talents went.

Even the children recruited by the Living Feather Knights applied on their own, and even if no one came, Baron Lowry didn't care at all.

Perhaps it was because of his attitude that the new knights of the Living Feather Knights were all very pure in nature... without any ambition at all.

Cesca guessed that Sir Alex would never be able to say again that innocent and romantic children were the most beautiful scenery in life.

Ambition and desire were originally the driving forces for people to move forward.

As long as it wasn't obtained by harming others, it should be praised.

What kind of stupid prince who had seen too much desire in the palace and wanted to see some innocence and romance!

He didn't even think about where the calmness that allowed him to sit on the high platform and watch the people below desperately fighting for a piece of meat came from!

Cesca, who had personally witnessed the madness of her parents and the struggles of her siblings since she was a child, and who had also tried her best to live with dignity, looked down on this future Icefield King and only felt that his mother had a hard time giving birth to him and raising him.

Thinking about it, so many queens in their Northern Kingdom died, and even if there were various reasons for their worries, there must have been many external influences.

Even queens with slightly inferior methods couldn't even keep the princes and princesses raised in their own palaces... Even if everyone knew that these children had no competitiveness, someone would still take action if there was an opportunity.

It was even possible that the person who took action wasn't for major events like kingship, but just didn't want a certain queen and the family behind her to be happy.

Even if the subordinates that the White Dragon King sent to his daughter were very capable, it was definitely not easy to protect an heir to the throne in a place where they were unfamiliar and might not even recognize the food.

That princess could even raise her son to such an upright and virtuous level... Cesca would occasionally wonder if that queen, who wanted her to take power, did it on purpose.

But judging from the fact that she entrusted Alex to her father and nephew like this, it didn't seem to be the case.

Otherwise, Cesca wouldn't have come over at this time.

She knew very well that Lowry didn't open the door for a long time not because he couldn't get away, but because he didn't want to face the difficult problem that Taylor was about to present.

With a slight movement of her heels, Cesca still chose to listen to her inner intuition and walked towards the study door.

Anyway, Taylor, who rushed in, didn't close the door, did he?

"Baron!" Knight Taylor, who had grown to two meters tall and was burly, rushed firmly towards Lowry, who was standing by the huge easel by the window, "Alex said he wants to compete with Milian!"

"Huh? Compete for what?" Lowry, who was wearing a gray robe and was cleaning up the palette, turned his head in surprise when he heard the unexpected words.

"Sister Valera! That Milian has been pursuing our eldest sister for the past few years!" Taylor was stunned for a moment before quickly answering.

Lowry's reaction did surprise him a bit, after all, this matter wasn't a secret in the Gzael Barony.

Otherwise, Hamilton wouldn't have Milian complete every task when he came to the Gzael Barony.

But thinking about it, it wasn't incomprehensible.

Baron Lowry had always disdained those love affairs.

Of course, in fact, their siblings didn't feel anything about this matter, let him move himself, anyway, no one dared to touch them.

Their eldest sister had finally taken control of her own destiny, and it was impossible for her to give it up for a man, and there was no need for the younger siblings to intervene.

But Alex was different.

The love he expressed, even if Valera had no interest at all, would bring great trouble... such as that still quite prominent Icefield Queen.

Who didn't know that even if Alex couldn't continue to marry a royal princess, it would have to be a noble woman with blood ties to the royal family.

Maybe the capital had already prepared several beauty banquets for him!

If people felt that Valera, who could only be considered a commoner, was an obstacle to their feet, someone would definitely come to eliminate this stone!

If something happened to the eldest sister, what if Baron Lowry was furious and even retaliated?

Taylor was really worried.

"Damn idiot!" Cesca, who was standing at the door, couldn't help but curse.

Lowry glanced at her, took off the thin gloves on his hands, and gently shook his head: "Taylor, calm down.

Alex is just stupid, not crazy."

Taylor looked at them a little confused: The reactions of the second sister and the baron were not quite right.

"Are he and that Milian on good terms?" Lowry, sitting behind the desk, asked Cesca softly.

"Very good. Back then, the Blade of the Fierce Tiger should have arranged for Milian to take care of and lead the underage him," Cesca replied steadily.

"Sometimes I always think that it's a joke that the Icefield Wolves turn into Ice Dogs when they leave their hometown because the water in their brains melts," Lowry said impatiently, "But Alex really makes me feel that this sentence is the most realistic portrayal, after all, people are like this."

"But, why?" Taylor couldn't understand Alex's brain circuit at all, "What if Valera suddenly had a brain fart and really agreed to him? That's the position of a queen of a country."

"In that case, wouldn't it prove that Valera rejected Milian not because of love, but because the other party didn't have enough power!" Cesca immediately understood, "If Valera doesn't care about Alex at all, but faces such a troublesome suitor, she might consider getting married early to avoid trouble.

Then Milian, as Hamilton's confidant and a proper territory baron, can be considered a leader among Valera's followers."

Taylor tilted his head in confusion: "But, with Valera's temper, shouldn't she be more likely to raise a male favorite?"

As long as a formal partner ceremony is held, even if it's not as solemn as marriage, the children born will be recognized... This is enough to prove that Valera is not interested in Alex at all.

As the future heir to the throne, it's absolutely impossible for him to marry a woman with a partner as queen.

Even if the two still have some involvement in the future, that's all there is to it.

A lover can't affect anything serious.

"Alex is probably leaving," Lowry said after thinking for a while, "Otherwise, he wouldn't suddenly do this kind of thing."

Although Alex's brain would occasionally get waterlogged, he still knew a little about avoiding harm.

For example, he would never do anything that would make Lowry directly expel him.

Don't look at him always causing trouble for Lowry, but the kind of disputes that occur because of the future development of the Knights, even if Lowry is impatient, he won't think he's being unreasonable.

It's not wrong to want the little knight he brought out to have a better future.

But suddenly going crazy like this, Alex must have opened his mouth without much thought.

The thing that can make him suddenly go crazy like this is probably the neighbor who is coming to pick him up.

"Recently, have many guests come to the territory?" Lowry frowned and asked Cesca seriously, "Not the kind of caravan that leaves after the Blue Maple Valley trade ends, but the kind that comes to us."

Cesca nodded quickly: "There are many, but they went straight to the magic item store to look at the illusion cards as soon as they came in, and didn't request an audience with the Baron, so I didn't pay much attention."
