Dear Broom Knight

#171 - A letter from the past

Then Countess Yagris fell silent again.

It wasn't until Bo Lanios and Ruth Kania arrived together, had a loving meal, and enjoyed the morning light before returning to the Thousand Petal Lotus Hall.

"This lotus hall on the water is truly beautiful," Countess Yagris said, looking back at her son.

"Originally, it was designed for Mom to invite bards to perform in the future," Lorry said with a smile. "But now, I have to consider a new place.

What do you think of the pear blossom forest under the hills? There's a lake in the middle, and I've left plenty of space nearby for others to come and go.

Adding a pear blossom platform in the middle of the lake would be quite nice."

Lorry was actually considering that his mother had a wide circle of friends, at least those of the Yagris Knights who were stationed in the Montes territory would often come... They wouldn't come to Lorry's castle to stay.

But Lorry didn't want them to stay in Countess Yagris's manor either.

To put it bluntly, when the leader and his subordinates make different choices, they will gradually and completely separate sooner or later.

Even if the Knights are still the Yagris Knights, but... his mother has actually given up her sovereignty.

Even now, what good is it if those knights have any more gratitude for this lord who would rather give up her own interests to guarantee their rights?

Time will make people forget everything.

When the new knights come to the forefront, they will instead not want to admit that they have received such great favors from others.

Kindness without emotion or personal connection will only become a kind of pressure that others don't want to admit.

Therefore, when that time comes, those knights will inevitably slowly begin to disappear from Gezall Castle... They can just choose a long-distance mission once.

Returning in three or five years will be enough for them to feel at ease and no longer appear.

Countess Yagris could be in the manor on the hills, and just by looking down, she could see the small lakeside town facing her side... It was connected to her manor by a lakeside tree-lined path and a wide horse path, but it wasn't that close.

Lorry had even built a large house with more than sixty rooms that could accommodate a hundred people.

Next to it were several family villas, as well as a grocery store and restaurant that would open simultaneously when someone moved in.

And this kind of town naturally had a wharf and a small square by the lake, plus the tree-lined path, it would be easy to transform it into a concert hall.

But the magic arrays there were certainly not as many as in the castle, so Lorry could only barely make it pear-shaped, and it couldn't be so layered. Although it wouldn't be completely open-air, it certainly couldn't be as closed as the Thousand Petal Lotus.

However, that place was far from Lorry's castle and wouldn't affect the high and mighty Countess Yagris, so Lorry didn't need to bother so much.

"It's pretty good," Countess Yagris looked up and thought. "It suits my taste better than your hall."

Lorry looked at his mother unhappily: "Mom! Do I not know what you like?

You no longer need to suppress your preferences."

"But, Lorry..." Countess Yagris looked at her son with gentle eyes, "After decades of rubbing a disguise into one's bones, who can tell so clearly?

I do see the Thousand Petal Lotus and my eyes light up, but, for long-term residence... I might still feel that the Pear Blossom Platform would make me more comfortable."

Lorry pursed his lips, still feeling uncomfortable in his heart.

Even if Countess Yagris said so, he still felt that compared to continuing to live with things that she was used to but didn't like, of course, she should find her own preferences after having freedom!

Just like himself back then, who was completely immersed in various games after becoming financially independent... It wasn't until six years after graduating from university that he finally bought a computer that allowed him to play as he pleased.

Countess Yagris gently touched her son, who was clearly indignant for her sake: "Lorry, you have already fulfilled many of my past dreams.

The first time I saw that hillside with spring all year round, and the address of the manor you left for me with scenery everywhere, I knew how much my son loves me.

However, for me... the most important thing is..."

A sharp glint flashed in her eyes: "My life must reach a day when no one dares to use me at will again.

Don't worry, of course I don't hate Pat. Some things are the same with or without her.

I don't resent my king either.

Everything he did was what a king, a leader, should do.

If it were me, I would make the same choice.

But, Lorry, what about those... high and mighty beings who treat us like puppets!

What if, one day, everything that Montes encountered happened to you and me?

I thought about it for a long time and didn't know how to guard against it.

Lorry, I know you don't like what your father did, but from his point of view, he didn't do anything wrong.

In fact, I was the one who was wrong.

I shouldn't have let you and your father come into contact.

From the beginning, I should have just let you be a Gezall.

It's just that I'm still not reconciled, Lorry.

I only understand now that I was the one who overstepped the boundaries of an ally first.

But, Lorry, Mom, it's also the first time being a woman!

When you get married, you always want to get a little warmth from your husband, instead of all calculations."

Countess Yagris looked at the Thousand Petal Lotus, which had closed again, with a hint of regret: "Even the notoriously selfish White Dragon can enjoy the gentleness and care from a partner at this moment!"

She shook her head: "Perhaps, this is the difference between men and women!

Secretly, I still hope that he can treat me as a real wife and you as his real son.

The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ say ⊥ at ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥ ⊥ book ⊥ ⊥ bar ⊥ ⊥ first ⊥ hair!

Instead of an ally, and the child of that ally who is related to me by blood and may threaten my own son."

Lorry looked at Countess Yagris in confusion: "Mom? Did you hear some nonsense?

I've seen your alliance agreement.

He asked you to be a perfect hostess, how could he refuse you everything that a hostess should have?

If you were really just allies, from the beginning, Montes Castle should have been clearly divided.

Instead of letting you divide everything yourself after being hurt.

If he had arranged for you to be just a temporary hostess, an ally who would leave when the time came, how could Alex and Masoud have been so stimulated?

And me, he actually wanted me to be the Baron of Gezall and wholeheartedly support the Montes family... He just couldn't manipulate me, so he finally gave up.

You are..."

What kind of stimulation did you receive?

Countess Yagris's eyes blinked frantically, and after a long while, she asked in confusion: "So, that's how it is?"

"So, what exactly did you hear? He's been dead for four years!" Lorry asked a little puzzled. "It can't be that at this time, someone is still discussing this kind of problem that should have faded away with the wind!

And made you sound like you've gone silly..."

He almost wanted to say that if Earl Montes really didn't have any other thoughts from the beginning, how could he have given birth to him with Countess Yagris so quickly?

If he had been born two years later, everything would not have happened.

Of course, whether he would still be the current Lorry at that time would be a bit difficult to say.

Although he was indeed reincarnated, it was estimated that the incomplete artifact would not have been able to carry his wisp of divine consciousness for so long.

After becoming a mage, Lorry read many books related to the human body and somewhat understood why he was recognized by this world... The main body of his soul belonged to this world, at most, the wisp of light in his soul belonged to himself.

This was not considered a foreign object at all for any world will.

As long as he didn't suddenly deny his identity as Lorry Montes, then he would always be the Baron of Gezall, a mage of the Northern Kingdom.

Countess Yagris sighed: "A few days ago, I received a document."

"Hmm?" Lorry tilted his head.

"My Gale Wolf, you should remember it," Countess Yagris asked in a declarative tone, and summoned her Gale Wolf partner, "Although I don't want to mention it, the only reason we can be together is that I am a Gezall.

Every Gezall, when they come of age, will receive a secret letter, asking us to go to the mountains where the Gale Wolves are to find our partners."

She hugged the tall back of her friend and said with a gentle expression: "Only when both sides recognize each other will they reach a friendship contract and accompany each other for life.

Moreover, there are not only Gale Wolves in the mountains... Half of the Gezalls do not get recognition, and of the remaining half, four-fifths contract with other magic wolves.

I am one of the only three Gezalls in the last hundred years to have been recognized by a Gale Wolf."

Countess Yagris turned to look at Lorry, who seemed to have realized something: "The Montes family's inheritance is even longer than Gezall's.

Therefore, you are of course also qualified to enter the same area of Montes to find your Dragon Vein Rhinoceros.

Of course, this is when you have not awakened as a mage."

Countess Yagris slowly took out a letter: "This is a letter that your father determined after a long discussion with the Montes ancestral land.

The Montes ancestral land wanted to deprive you of your right to enter because you would be the Baron of Gezall.

Although he wasn't so happy about your birth, he still fought for your due rights for you."
