Dear Broom Knight
#181 - The sister who secretly tests
Valera also felt like there was something wrong with what she had said.
So, she simply pressed the sticker onto the file bag.
The strong fragrance quickly dissipated in the wind, leaving only a hint of lily of the valley, mixed with a touch of fruity aroma.
"It has a kind of autumn sunshine scent," Valera commented blandly. "Truly, an excellent perfumer!"
"Where on earth did our Baron learn these skills?" Cheska asked, a little puzzled. "It seems like the Church or the bards are more accustomed to using perfumery."
Valera shook her head: "You really don't understand mages at all.
Especially court archmages.
To avoid some trouble, they would never teach alchemy to students before confirming that their students have sufficiently nimble hands, good memory, and suitable sensitivity.
And perfumery is the best method of observation.
It's not simpler than alchemy; after all, it requires quite a lot from a person's five senses.
Since our Baron was able to gain the approval of Archmage Arsland, then he must have started learning alchemy long ago, and he must have already taken basic perfumery courses."
"Very good. If it's changed every three months as our Baron said, then there shouldn't be any problems," Valera smiled. "The previous maple leaves didn't have such a complex fragrance.
Well, Cheska, you should go back first. The Baron's temper probably won't be very good during this time.
Even if it's the optimal solution for the current situation, he could have avoided paying so much.
I'll stay here and have some fun with those Dark Night Church cubs.
You should also thoroughly check the castle and the knight's garrison when you get back.
Who knows if the Dark Moon that entered the territory during that time did anything to them.
Especially those few cooks.
They are too young and easily impulsive."
Cheska nodded: "Don't worry, Sister, I already instructed Taylor to start cleaning up the Knights' garrison before I left.
Don't worry about their living quarters, Sister Valera."
She quickly stopped Valera, who wanted to ask something: "There are several dormitory buildings behind the Grand Library that can ensure they live in single rooms.
During the renovation period, the garrison needs the Knights' protection from outsiders; it's impossible to let them go home."
Valera nodded in satisfaction: "That's good."
"However, the Baron said that if anyone chooses to leave the Knights during this period, then just let them leave according to the rules," Cheska added.
Valera suddenly frowned: "Didn't the Baron let go of all those who wanted to follow Alex?"
Although he also collected a large training fee from Alex according to the rules, if Lowry weren't a mage lord who only treated the Knights as territory security officers and never planned to participate in external wars, which lord would be willing to let someone take away their painstakingly trained subordinates?
Even if those people were all taught by Alex himself, Lowry's resources could have been given to his own people if it weren't for them.
Does he really think knight resources are so abundant that he can have as much as he wants if he has money?
Although Valera knew that the White Dragon King must have secretly compensated Lowry with something, otherwise Lowry wouldn't have loosened his grip so easily, she was still very unhappy.
"Some people probably heard something," Cheska replied calmly. "Before, when there was no possibility, they didn't think they were ambitious people.
But now, war may be imminent… and everyone can see our lord's intentions now.
Even if His Majesty the King launches a national war and requires all lords to participate, our lord can always be the reserve force.
Following Lowry, making contributions and establishing a career is unlikely.
Some people are still restless.
The Baron doesn't want to delay other people's futures; it's good to take back what should be taken back."
"Only the people in the Knights' garrison?" Valera was concerned about another issue.
"Are you worried about Mar and the others?" Cheska laughed. "That's the only place where there are no problems at all.
How could the Baron arrange some unstable factors for those two children!
Mar and Komran only need to lead troops to fight; the Baron won't ask them for so much else.
Well, Sister, I'll go back first; there are still many things to do in the castle."
Valera nodded thoughtfully.
"Sister?" Charles rushed into the top-floor hall in three steps, only to find that he still couldn't chat with Cheska for a few words. "Why did Cheska leave so quickly?"
Standing by the window, Valera stared grimly at Cheska's back as she rode away quickly on horseback and gave a cold laugh: "How dare she stay?"
Charles was startled: "What did Cheska do again?"
"That guy is even testing me," Valera pursed her lips and said unhappily.
"Testing what?" Charles couldn't understand.
Although the four siblings couldn't stay together all year round, their feelings for each other and understanding were deep enough that it was impossible to doubt each other's loyalty.
Therefore, Charles couldn't imagine what Cheska could suspect Valera of.
"Suspecting that I revealed the Baron's hobby of perfumery."
Valera sneered.
How could Cheska, who was with Lowry almost every day, not know what she knew?
That dead child just wanted to know if she had mentioned this matter to anyone!
"Oh… that's nothing," Charles thought very broadly.
After all, he knew very well that Cheska's test was not because she suspected Valera.
Pat had taught Cheska some 'safety rules.' When he decided to have him and Valera defend Qingfeng Valley, the Baron also had Cheska explain them to them in detail.
One of them was: Sometimes, the person who speaks may not know what they said.
Only through similar sudden questions can intuition tell you whether you have told others or not.
Cheska probably just practiced on Valera.
The newest novel is first published at 6 9 books!
But since Valera didn't make a mistake, then it was Cheska who had to escape, which was normal.
"Why is Sister Valera angry?" Charles asked curiously.
Because of his personality, Charles was often tested like this… and Valera was the one who did it, so he didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
It's not that they suspect them of anything, just worried that they said the wrong thing.
"Who can I mention the perfumery issue to?" Valera asked quietly.
The reason why perfumery is best at temples and bards also has its inherent reasons.
One is to win the favor of the gods when offering sacrifices to the gods.
Furthermore, it can also create a sacred atmosphere in the temple, giving all those who worship the illusion of being watched by the gods.
But the other is the ambiguous fragrance specially burned to match the atmosphere of their chanting.
In fact, in the beginning, it was the serious thing that those temple bards used when singing hymns.
But, with the rise of folk bards, the emergence of some not-so-serious songs… sometimes, when men and women are alone, they will release some fragrances bought from bards.
Charles 'poofed' and laughed.
"There's no way around it; Milian has indeed been coming too frequently recently," he said, shaking his head.
Valera shook her head helplessly: "Don't mention him again.
Don't you understand?
In Cheska's eyes, the next-door neighbor is no longer a trustworthy object.
Otherwise, she wouldn't test that way.
In the past, our Baron still trusted Milian and the others very much.
Not the kind of friends, but relatively reliable allies and neighbors.
But this time, Cheska is obviously guarding against Milian as an enemy.
Although I don't know what happened… but from now on, remember, don't be so intimate with Milian anymore."
Although she never thought of accepting Milian's love, after all, Valera and Charles were able to advance to official swordsmen, thanks to his help.
Therefore, the two of them have always been very friendly to Milian.
Charles stopped laughing, nestled into the sofa, and thought for a while before saying: "Because Ruthkania is really about to give birth?
Dragon eggs, hatchlings, young dragons… even young dragons, aren't they opportunities for any knight?
Leon is also a knight.
Who doesn't know that his only shortcoming is that he doesn't live long enough."
The White Dragon King can still wreak havoc for at least eight hundred years… that's still calculated according to the lifespan of ordinary dragons.
Ruthkania doesn't seem that ordinary.
Leon can obviously only hope that one of his descendants, I don't know how many generations down the line, will be a child similar to him; otherwise, there is basically no hope.
After all, he also has two older brothers who don't like him that much and have already had children… of course, it's not to the point of hating Leon; there are people who are much more annoying than him.
But, if he has a white dragon, even if he can't get a blood oath like the White Dragon King, it can give Leon a considerable advantage.
According to reliable records, dragon blood oath knights lived to at least eight hundred years old.
"Leon… Earl Hamilton…" Valera, knowing that Charles's guess made some sense, chewed on someone's name, "Maybe Cheska is overthinking things.
But it's right to be prepared first.
We can't expect others to not be moved at all."
Only then did she finally have a sense of reality: "Eh~ We're going to have a little dragon in our territory!"
Compared to Valera's belated realization, Charles had already thought of this… although he never thought of making a contract with a dragon, 80% of the knights and reserve knights in Qingfeng Valley are boys!
Ever since those two dragons started circling over the territory every day, they have been clinging to the city walls and looking up at the sky.
Even if there is no extravagance, they can still fantasize!
