Dear Broom Knight

#160 - This time I really sent it away

What could Alex do?

After all, Laurie had just helped him out.

Regardless of whether the other party did it for their own benefit, he was the one who benefited.

Especially since that Ians will be following him for a long time to come!

Alas~ Just thinking about it made Alex feel like his future was bleak… He could get away with having a dirty face this time, preventing that lady who obviously loved cleanliness from scrutinizing him too closely, but he couldn't do that in the future.

Then, he shook the cleaned handkerchief in the wind, and after it was frozen into a board, he directly stuffed it into his storage ring.

I thought you would throw it away!” Laurie looked at him curiously.

Alex was stunned for a moment: “My handkerchiefs cost an average of three gold coins each!

I'm wiping my own face with it, what reason do I have to dislike it?”

“Hmm~~” Laurie simply stretched out the sound and changed her posture on the broom, leaving a meaningful lingering tone.

Alex felt that this guy was going crazy again.

But he was used to it; even the White Dragon King was accustomed to Laurie's occasional madness.

For example, asking why, as a king, he didn't use a golden basin to wash his hands.

Having read all the knight novels in their world, none of them had a king who dared to be so arrogant.

Was a copper basin not sturdy enough, or a crystal basin not gorgeous enough, that he had to compete with the dragons to see who loved gold products more?

Any king could afford a golden washbasin.

However, once the words 'His Majesty the King washes his hands with a golden basin!' spread, it would quickly become 'His Majesty the King lives in a golden palace! Even the flower pots are made of gold!'

As long as these words spread far enough, the sky above the palace would inevitably be obscured by the wings of swarming dragons, making it impossible to see the sun.

Although the dragons wouldn't take action without seeing enough evidence… who wouldn't be afraid?

The King of the Northlands was already the most daring king to flaunt his wealth, and even he wouldn't do such a thing.

No matter how special Ruthkania's status was among the White Dragons, it was useless.

The more she said, the more the other dragons would probably want to see how many gold mountains were hidden in her dragon's lair.

It was all because he had been too bored these years, only studying and practicing, that Laurie would start to fantasize when he saw a familiar scene.

However, Laurie thought about it the other way around, and realized that what he was doing was just continuing his past style, which was actually quite good.

Being a well-known person who usually had a good temper but occasionally went crazy, and even became manic when stimulated, with ability and a background, was actually quite good.

At least no one would think he had other problems.

“What are you guys talking about? It's so lively.”

For example, this Darkmoon who had nothing better to do than ask pointless questions.

Although that Goddess of the Night wasn't great either, at least she had a bit more finesse in her speech.

If you don't know what to say, then don't say anything. If you want to join someone else's conversation, you can find a topic that everyone is comfortable with. Why ask what others are talking about?

She's really spoiled… Why should the content of other people's conversations be shared with you?

Not to mention that Laurie had never given her any face from the beginning, even Alex wouldn't respond to such a boring question.

However, there was obviously someone who didn't want to see a beauty embarrassed.

The atmosphere had only been cold for a minute when a man in a leather robe immediately smiled and changed the subject: “Your Highness Alex, the injured on our side have all been treated.

We must thank the two ladies from the Temple of the Night and Mr. Clayton from the Temple of the Earth for their help.”

Alex immediately nodded: “Indeed, I should also express my gratitude.”

Clayton's eyelids twitched, and he quickly replied: “This is what we should do. Your Highness Alex is too polite.

Since we are future allies, please feel free to command us… At least I will definitely be very happy to obey your orders.”

The somewhat bewildered Suriani immediately followed up: “Of course, our Temple of the Night is the same. Please issue orders at your discretion, Your Highness Alex.”

She glanced at her friend, then her eyes narrowed slightly, and she took a big step forward with a nonchalant expression, blocking Ians behind her.

Laurie quickly realized that Suriani, this good friend who was about the same age as Ians, probably knew Ians's true identity.

She could even figure out in that instant that Ians's slightly short-circuited appearance was due to the influence of just being released from the control of the gods… which showed that this was not a special reaction.

And was Ians's particularly rude behavior just now because she had just been purified, so she couldn't disguise herself for a while?

Laurie carefully recorded the newly observed things in the castle memorandum: In the early stages after the possessed god has just left, it is estimated that within an hour, the possessed person will reveal their essence and nature.

This time, he didn't need to take out a small notebook to show it to outsiders.

Those who should have left had already left.

Alex was silent for a while before putting on a smile again: “Let's talk about these things after we return to the palace…

Too many things happened today, and I don't want to think about so much for the time being. I just want to go home quickly.

And, no matter what, the current King of the Icefield is still my father.”

Alex's heart sank as he glanced at the three clerics out of the corner of his eye.

The other two clerics didn't show any traces, but in the half of Ians's eye that was visible, mostly blocked by Suriani, one could still see a hint of 'Why are you talking such nonsense?'

Alex waved his hand abruptly: “Then, let's set off!

I want to go home!”

“Don't you need to say goodbye to the King of the Northlands?” Suriani still couldn't stop Ians's mindless remarks.

“Our King does not have that obligation.” Laurie, who had been sitting on the broom and watching, coldly took over the conversation, “What he saved was his own grandson, Alex.

As for how the Crown Prince of the Icefield Kingdom will walk home, that is a problem for the Crown Prince to consider himself.

The farewell of His Majesty the King of the Northlands is not something that everyone can afford.”

Ians's true nature, is it this 'simple'?

The meaning in her words was of course not what Laurie said… she was just trying to incite Alex's rebellious heart, and by the way, attribute the White Dragon King's protection of Alex to his coveting of the Icefield Kingdom.

Such a crude method of instigation was truly speechless.

If Laurie hadn't been unwilling to let some of the staff who wanted to say something be too obvious, he wouldn't have wasted his breath at all.

Alex sighed helplessly: “Laurie, this time we part, I estimate that we don't know when we will meet again. Let's leave each other with a beautiful ending!

When we recall it, at least we remember each other…”

“Hurry up and leave! Separating like this is the best outcome.” Laurie interrupted him without hesitation.

Alex shook his head helplessly, waved his hand again, and walked towards one side of the cliff first.

It wasn't until he had walked more than a hundred meters away that Laurie said softly, “If you continue walking in that direction, we will really see each other again soon.”

Alex's dashing figure froze.

He finally realized where his unease came from.

It was all because Laurie had flown too many circles over his head and always stopped randomly, which caused him to remember the wrong direction after secretly looking at the compass just now!

However, he still had this bit of thick skin.

So, Alex openly took out the compass from his pocket, and after confirming the correct direction, he turned a corner and walked towards the other side of the cliff.

Because of this inexplicable accident, the clerics from the Temple of the Night and the Temple of the Earth who obviously still wanted to say something were also forced to shut their mouths.

After all, they didn't have the identity to say nonsense when Alex was obviously very embarrassed.

And Laurie, until he watched the group of people leave his sight, his mouth twitched slightly… Even if Alex wasn't some child of destiny, he would definitely succeed in the end.

After all, when Alex was wiping his face with the handkerchief, the compass was still on the chain on his wrist.

Because his attention was on Ians, Laurie really didn't notice when Alex had pulled off this trick.

Laurie really didn't expect that this future King of the Icefield would still play this kind of trick… After knowing him for so many years, there would still be such a huge cognitive error!

Laurie was inevitably shocked.

He suddenly felt that Alex's timely departure was also quite good.

Although Laurie was very confident in his Valera's rationality and composure, he had also seen what 'a toad lusting after swan meat' was like.

No matter how beautiful and rare a flower is, it is possible to be overwhelmed by cow dung.

“Finally gone.” The White Dragon King walked out of the mist in the center of the ice lake behind him, “Really, bullshit! I've been planning for so many years, and they just came to pick up the leftovers!”

“If it weren't for so many years, you wouldn't be qualified to enter the game at all.” Arsalan replied calmly, poking his head out from under the cliff.

“Where's Ruthkania?” Laurie looked around, “Staying in the Great Rift?”

“Went to your castle.” The White Dragon King replied shamelessly, “She heard that your castle's chef is particularly good at making beef, so she plans to try it.”

This time, the corner of Laurie's mouth really twitched: “Your Majesty the King, are you planning to let Ruthkania eat back my tent design fee?”

“Alex has really good taste.” The White Dragon King said vaguely, “However, haven't you used this thing before when you were building the castle?

He didn't even go inside to see?”

“At that time, he was still pretending to be in the Fierce Tiger's Blade camp.”
