Dear Broom Knight
#184 - Charles is confused
"Huh?" Cheska looked at the application handed to her, a puzzled expression on her face. "Charles, did your brain tie itself in a knot?"
She tilted her head and pondered for a moment, then bent down and rummaged through the drawers of her large desk, pulling out a plan… from Charles.
Although Lowry was a very hands-off leader, he wasn't completely uninvolved.
Therefore, every year at the end of the year, he would require the managers of various territories, including those officials who were highly ranked, to submit an annual summary and plans for the coming year or even several years.
As Lowry's deputy, Cheska, who managed the daily affairs of the territory, had naturally seen all of these things.
Of course, if they could get the other party to give up, Lowry wouldn't interfere too much.
However, Valera's matter wasn't important enough to override Charles's restaurant!
To put it bluntly, the Dark Night Church would have to be crazy to send that kind of powerhouse to Gezall Territory again right after causing trouble.
Even if they didn't care about angering Lowry, the mage lord with a strong background, they would have to be careful of the two level 16 dragons nesting in the castle!
Especially now that Ruthcarnia was really pregnant.
Both Ruthcarnia and Boranios would inevitably begin to clear away all unstable factors in the surrounding area.
To put it bluntly, even if a dog barked strangely or a rooster crowed at the wrong time, they would be brutally exploded in the head by dragon claws.
Even if some high-level members of the church went crazy, they wouldn't send that Dark Night Envoy into Gezall Territory this year… they would definitely die without a burial place.
With Cheska's shallow understanding of Boranios, she also knew a little bit that he should be a dragon who had come from the era when the White Dragon and the gods were still fighting.
Therefore, this guy really knew the tricks of the Churches of the Gods very well.
He definitely wouldn't have cared about the Gezall Territory's affairs before, but now, that male dragon didn't know how to vent his excitement!
Ever since Ruthcarnia confirmed that her pregnancy was stable, Boranios had been jumping up and down like a big white cat who had just chewed on catnip.
He would often do a straight-line spin in the clouds, turning himself into a small spinning top.
It seemed that he had even affected Ruthcarnia's rest due to over-excitement, and was simply kicked out of the nest.
Cheska had been too lazy to look outside these past two days… the huge male white dragon was half-lying outside the Thousand Petal Lotus Hall every night, cautiously waiting, ready to listen to Ruthcarnia's orders at any time.
During the day, besides running around, he was hunting like crazy.
According to the type of prey he had been hunting recently, Cheska estimated that this guy had already gone deep into the Icefield Kingdom.
However, anyway, the people there couldn't possibly have any 'opinions' because a dragon had overstepped its boundaries, so Cheska pretended not to see where those several ten-meter-long, white, transparent fish with bones like jade came from… well, that thing only existed in the Ice Crystal Lake, which was designated as the royal family's private property by the Icefield Kingdom.
It was said that this Icefield specialty, called Crystal Fish, was not only known as the number one delicacy of the Icefield, but also could increase the bone strength of the consumer if eaten for a long time.
And those jade-like bones were rare ice-attribute magic materials.
For the White Dragon, it should be a great tonic.
Logically speaking, the knights stationed there by the Icefield Royal Family were quite powerful, definitely level 16 at the very least, and there should be at least three of them.
Otherwise, they would definitely not be able to stop those White Dragons who came to whet their appetites when they had nothing to do.
I really didn't expect that Boranios could suppress those powerhouses with his own strength.
Cheska knew very well that occasionally catching one might be taking advantage of someone's unpreparedness, but being able to bring one back for several days in a row could only mean that Boranios had swept through the Icefield Royal Family's army.
However, he didn't go too far. Except for the first day, he brought back one every day.
It was estimated that the Icefield Royal Family could only accept it.
Mobilizing the garrison from other places for this kind of thing… other countries might have hope, but the Icefield Royal Family?
Especially the Icefield Royal Family, which was currently in a period of transition between the old and the new, could only seek stability.
Since Boranios had given way a little, the other side could only accept it.
Cheska finally understood how good the relationship between her lord and the two White Dragons, especially Ruthcarnia, was.
After discovering it, Lowry quickly窜 out去 and exchanged half a fish's meat with Boranios.
Of course, it was exchanged under Ruthcarnia's watchful eyes, and Lowry didn't touch the fish bones.
That night, Cheska finally understood what ‘spring breeze in the mouth’ meant.
This compliment from Lowry was really subtle and vivid.
Anyway, besides ‘too delicious’, she herself had no room for any other thoughts.
This was also the first time Cheska had seen Lowry eat so much in one meal… even when he was still training as a knight, Lowry would at most expressionlessly stuff 10 pounds of beef into his mouth.
But this time, besides stingily dividing one pound of fish meat each to Cheska and her siblings, plus Marl and Comran, and sending 10 pounds to Mrs. Yagris by a very fast bird, Lowry ate all the remaining 20 pounds of fish meat in one go.
Thinking of this, Cheska suddenly raised her arm and clenched her fist forcefully.
Although the effect was not as obvious as the fish bones, this meat did have a positive impact on their flesh and blood.
It was like cleaning their flesh and blood.
Cheska judged that the reason why Lowry only gave them one pound each was that, regardless of taste, the magical effect of this fish meat was enough with this much.
The remaining meat only had the effect of satisfying the appetite.
Eh, Cheska really wanted to eat it too.
But except for the first day, when the dragon brought back two big fish, Lowry had taken action, but the rest of the days, he had no reaction at all, even though he really wanted to eat it too.
Cheska knew that this fish was still quite useful for Ruthcarnia and her child.
What a pity.
However, from these things, it could be seen that Ruthcarnia and Boranios had completely gone all out. During the period of giving birth to dragon eggs, or even hatching dragonlings, Gezall was absolutely safe.
Looking down at Charles's application, Cheska shook her head helplessly… how was this guy so easily fooled by Valera into forgetting everything?
However, as an application jointly submitted by the two managers of Qingfeng Valley, Cheska didn't need to reject it.
Although she really felt that Charles's plan should be completed first.
Wouldn't it be good to earn money a year earlier?

“Baron.” Cheska gently knocked on the door of Lowry's bedroom.
After eating those 20 pounds of fish meat a few days ago, Lowry had plunged into his laboratory and tinkered day and night for two days.
Then, he jumped into the bathroom covered in all sorts of messy things and soaked for half a day, and finally went back to the bedroom and slept soundly for a whole day.
Although he woke up very early today… Lowry had someone send a meal, but he was still lazily staying in the bedroom.
Cheska could only come here to find him.
“Come in.” Lowry's voice still had a hint of laziness.
“Baron, Valera and Charles want to buy a pair of space rings and several sets of rune magic locks.”
“Ah?” Lowry, who was leaning against the headboard reading a book, raised his head in disbelief. “Isn't Charles going to open a restaurant? I, at that time, did I promise him that he could invite outside apprentices at any time?”
“Yes.” Cheska nodded. “But, in the end, they decided to complete Qingfeng Valley's… first.”
Lowry couldn't help laughing and interrupting her: “Did Charles get fooled silly by Valera?”
He still knew his subordinates quite well.
Valera was the kind of person who, even if she knew that something on her side might become a loophole, and it was basically impossible for outsiders to exploit it, she would still scratch her ears and cheeks and become flustered.
On the contrary, Charles had a higher tolerance for these things.
Therefore, the reason why he suddenly became like this must be that Valera had played some tricks, causing Charles to temporarily ignore the key point.
Cheska smiled awkwardly: “I thought about it, Charles was probably frightened by your rune locks during that time.
Whenever it's mentioned, he's afraid.”
“Huh?” Lowry looked at her a little puzzled. “I remember, after trying it once with the beginner lock and finding that they really didn't have the ability, I didn't look for them a few anymore…”
“Valera did it.” Cheska said frankly, “Wasn't she required by you to open the intermediate lock within half an hour?
Every day, she was crying and whining.
She was already so tired, how could she bear to see her younger brother having fun outside?
So, while Charles and Tyler weren't paying attention, she directly locked the two of them in the small warehouse.
If they couldn't open the lock, they couldn't come out, and they almost starved to death.”
Lowry tilted his head in confusion.
“I exaggerated a little.” Cheska compared her fingers. “But that day, the two of them really didn't get to eat until after 10 pm.
As their older sister, I left them enough food.
But I am also a younger sister, so I could only watch my brothers being taught a lesson by their older sister for not liking to use their brains.”
Just saying that you also can't stand them being too idle… Lowry couldn't help but slander in his heart.
Cheska was also required by him to at least be able to open the beginner lock at that time.
As for Charles and Tyler, they could only stay on the side.
However, Lowry couldn't say anything.
He was indeed a little too much during that time… there was no way, after discovering for the first time that he was actually a person with a mathematical talent, Lowry was still a little too proud and forgot himself.
He even dug out some special permutations and combinations from his memories, and then replaced some runes into them… that feeling of suddenly turning something that he couldn't even understand before into a toy in his hands was too addicting.
