Dear Broom Knight

Lady Agres slightly shook her head, she didn't harbor any dissatisfaction towards the Gale Wolf pack because of those past misunderstandings.

They weren't trying to harm her.

Gale Wolves were still wolves, and they possessed the wolf pack's habit of carefully observing and meticulously planning before attacking, even more so.

Moreover, due to various concerns, they didn't even notify Veronique, who was by Lady Agres' side, leading to their previous efforts being in vain.

Lady Agres had witnessed wolf packs hunting many times, and situations where the prey escaped from inexplicable places due to excessive caution were common.

But it wasn't their fault.

It could only be said that Count Montes' appearance was perfectly timed.

Furthermore, Lady Agres had originally intended to come to the Northern Border.

After all, she had fought here before, and most of the Agres Knights had also earned their merits here.

It was just that because they chose to return to the mainland, some of their merits could only be turned into money and honorary titles.

However, when they returned to this land again, even if the merits had to be re-earned, the starting point was different.

They didn't need to start from vying for qualifications like other knight orders... especially, those seemingly useless honorary titles that simply prevented them from bowing and scraping to petty nobles, allowed them to take many shortcuts compared to others.

Otherwise, so many people in their knight order wouldn't have been able to obtain the qualification of manor knights.

Now, the two vice-captains, who were already level 10, wouldn't have obtained the status of baronet-designate so easily... it's just that they hadn't been vying for it because they wanted a territory.

Otherwise, they would have been barons long ago... the kind without territory.

Recalling those past years, Lady Agres had no regrets, even if she ended up with a disastrous marriage.

But, she also had Lowry.

Honestly, this heir thing really isn't something you can get just by wanting it.

Count Montes wasn't entirely wrong to value Alex so much back then... if that guy hadn't been sabotaged by his own mother, leading to insufficient strength, he would have been a pretty standard noble heir in other aspects.

And an heir like Lowry, who could expand his territory based on his own abilities, was extremely rare.

Lady Agres was well aware that many people who knew who she was said that she had struck gold to have a son like Lowry.

And she really had.

Childbirth was originally a huge adventure, the kind with no turning back.

But marriage was a minor trouble that could be stopped in time to cut one's losses.

Men could be either lifelong companions or embellishments in life.

Lady Agres, no longer dwelling on the past, was now very open-minded.

Of course, more importantly, Agres felt that she had avoided a huge disaster.

Those Gale Wolves, if they hadn't been forced to the point where they were sure there were no other possibilities, they definitely wouldn't have chosen to leave their territory.

That was their homeland that their ancestors had risked their lives to protect from the dragons.

And to dig out all those ores, they had been digging for at least five years.

That is to say, it wasn't until five years ago that they made up their minds to 'flash wolf', or rather, were forced to the point of being unable to endure it any longer, and had completely stopped considering the future, even prepared that if they couldn't find a contractor, they would rather tear up the alliance and make the adult giant wolves pay a heavy price... there isn't any contract in this world that is completely irreversible, it's just that you have to use your life to dissolve it.

And according to the constraints of the laws, no alliance could allow minors, especially infants, to bear the mistakes made by adults.

That is to say, the Gale Wolves really intended to use the lives of all adult wolves to dissolve the alliance with Gezall... of course, this also included her Veronique.

Lady Agres couldn't help but disagree with the Gale Wolves' excessive caution and prudence just by thinking about this.

That was indeed putting the fate of the entire clan on the gambling table.

A moment of carelessness, and the Gale Wolves would only be able to choose the final dead end.

But she also understood that if she had replaced the contractor with her, Agres, back then, then this group of wolves would definitely not have left their homeland.

Even if they encountered the same danger.

Gale Wolves were actually a very stubborn species.

As long as there was a reason, a little bit of confidence, they could fight to the last moment for it.

But in Lady Agres' eyes, no matter how enjoyable the battle was, it wasn't worth risking the destruction of their home and the death of their people.

She had never been the kind of person who had to rush forward knowing that it was impossible.

But, Agres also knew that if she had known there was such an opportunity back then, she would never have let it go.

That was an opportunity to be on equal footing with Earl Gezall without suffering or waiting!

That was a chain that faintly surrounded the Northern Royal Capital, and Earl Gezall's territory was one of the largest nails in it.

If Agres wanted to assassinate her uncle, she would have to wait until after level 16 at least... at that time, she would have immunity.

No matter what, she was an open follower of the Storm, and the Storm Church would at most assassinate her in secret.

Otherwise, even if the White Dragon King was very protective of his subordinates, he could only stand by and watch when it came to major events involving the kingdom and the church.

But becoming the Chieftain of the Gezall clan was another matter.

Lady Agres was certain that as soon as she obtained that identity, the White Dragon King would do his best to protect her.

After all, that chain would be broken.

At that time, without knowing Pat's identity, how could she have continued to endure it?

Then, her territory would definitely become a battlefield for the Storm and the Tower.

Don't look at how tolerant she was of Pat now, that was just because he was useful but not very useful.

When the time came, the Master of the Tower would never give Pat a chance to breathe.

Lady Agres sighed softly.

Her feelings for Pat were indeed very deep, and she was willing to sacrifice some of her own interests for her friend.

But, it really wasn't as serious as Lowry thought.

If it was a matter of life and death, or even affected Lowry's future... even if she was reluctant, she could only completely abandon Pat.

Fortunately, the difference in thought back then allowed her to preserve her son and her friendship.

As for the Knights... Lady Agres patted her shoulder... when she advanced to level 16, who would care if she had dealings with cultists?

As long as she was still willing to be loyal to His Majesty the King and retained her identity as a Storm believer, the Agres Knights would only be hers.

Regardless of whether those knights had already transferred their allegiance.

And, having gotten rid of the entanglements of the past, and determined that Earl Gezall would definitely not have a good end, and even his descendants were led into the ditch by him, what else could become an obstacle to her progress?

Oh right, she also had a very promising son.

A son who allowed her to not worry about the external environment at all and only needed to bury herself in hard training.

Lady Agres tilted her head and looked at her manor: Although it was very beautiful, after careful observation, one could find that this manor fully met the requirements of a Great Knight.

Including the training field.

Compared to the basic training base provided to all knights in the knight order's station, this one in her manor was more suitable for high-level knights to cultivate alone.

Lowry must have put a lot of thought into building her manor into its current appearance... although there was beauty everywhere, there was also murderous intent hidden everywhere.

Some things could only be seen by people who were accustomed to being high above.

For example, Lowry, who liked to ride a broom, and her, who was sitting on a Gale Wolf.

Lady Agres smiled and nodded, then suddenly looked in surprise at the distant hills, dotted with clusters of flowers in the verdant green... what was that?

The Great Knight with good eyesight tried hard to open her eyes wide.

It was really eye-opening, she saw a wild chicken coop for the first time!

As many as several thousand domestic chickens of different sizes and races, seemingly mixed with some wild chickens, were living together around a towering giant tree.

The chicken farm in Montes Castle, which claimed that all knights could have an egg every day, didn't have as many chickens as that place.

Then she suddenly widened her eyes and discovered a small beast sneaking up to the chicken coop, suddenly biting a chicken, and quickly turning its head and running away... it seemed to be a lynx?

Although that thing was very fast, it couldn't prevent the result of being covered in chicken droppings.

Lady Agres suddenly remembered what her son had said... Lowry seemed to indeed need some gregarious beasts to coordinate his territory's biosphere.

Knights won't do.

After watching this performance, which knight would dare to rush in?

Moreover, if even the chickens were so fierce, then, what about the cows?

What about the cows that Lowry said were almost becoming a disaster?

If there were over a hundred cows, the wolf pack would have to risk their lives when hunting if they weren't big enough.

Not to mention solitary beasts.

Lady Agres turned her head dumbfounded and glanced at the blue and white Gezall Castle... perhaps, her son was wholeheartedly thinking about a group of magical creatures that could dominate the mountains, not that he was thinking too little.

With the Gale Wolves around, at least Lowry wouldn't have to spend money to hire adventurers to help him clean up the domestic fowl and livestock that had turned into beasts in a few years... then the reputation he had accumulated over the past few years of being not easy to mess with would definitely instantly become a joke.

Lady Agres, at this moment, completely put down those somewhat heavy and meaningless things in her heart.

Looking around her future home, a sense of security and warmth gradually filled her heart and brows.
