Dear Broom Knight
#252 - Count Gezal was destroyed
Lowry looked up, noticing Bolanos digging even faster.
However, he wisely refrained from laughing out loud.
Unlike Lowry, who cheerfully burst into a rhythmic "Heh heh ~ Hahaha ~" laughter.
Roos Kania flew into the sky and circled once, finding nothing near the inner lake to slap a paw at except her partner diligently mining and her friend laughing boisterously, so she helplessly landed back in front of Lowry.
But, play was play, she still earnestly instructed Lowry: "Lowry, the reason we are so lazy is because we have a strong physique, magic-resistant scales, fierce claws, and powerful strength.
And you, only have a flexible body and a sharp mind left.
Therefore, you must diligently learn Dragon Language magic.
After all, unlike humans, you can always wait until the world becomes unrecognizable, and the enemies... suddenly become powerful."
In Roos Kania's heart, the gods were actually enemies.
After all, her position was on the side of the White Dragon.
But the White Dragon King was different... that guy actually acted with restraint, always leaving some leeway for the gods and their churches.
Cults not only act unscrupulously and ruthlessly, but are also very patient.
Hiding for decades just to open a door that was originally impossible to open for the lovely young lady... perhaps the one opening the door was that young lady's nanny.
The Storm Church would certainly hate the royal family for taking advantage of their misfortune and crushing their forces, but their most important enemy was still the Lord of the Tower.
After all, the White Dragon King didn't do anything that violated those underlying rules; the Storm Church gave the opportunity themselves.
He also didn't excessively pursue the matter, only thoroughly cleaning out the Gezarr family and a few affiliated families that were completely exposed.
Of course, taking the opportunity to send the high-ranking generals in his palace guard to that place, re-caging the Storm Church's forces, was a necessary thing that even the most brainless king would do.
But the White Dragon King didn't punish the Gezarr family's minor nobles who weren't involved in these matters for Count Gezarr's fault, and not every in-law of Count Gezarr suffered misfortune... families where no evidence was found were basically left alone.
Of course, Ms. Agnes, the righteous daughter who exposed this matter, also received immunity and was granted a brand new baronetcy... although it was also the lowest rank of nobility, the honorary title she had before was only recognized in the Northern Kingdom, while this one was a proper title recognized worldwide.
In fact, it was just a baron without a territory.
The title of baron was originally an abbreviation for the honorary title of managing all the men and their families on a piece of land, and was the smallest unit of the noble system.
Even if women could obtain titles and status because of their strength, they were still appendages of men in the absence of these things.
In this world dominated by power, this phenomenon was even more serious... because there were actually fewer things they could do.
The reason why women have a slightly higher status in the Northern Territory is because women have supported families that have lost their masters with their own hands for thousands of years.
Men have known since they were young that respecting their mothers and wives is respecting their own future.
But in places that have been peaceful for a long time, women who do not have enough support to walk out on their own are still slowly declining in status.
However, there was originally no lowest-level honorary title in the noble system that divided the baronial title into two types.
It only appeared later as the number of nobles increased and the king needed to create a suitable class between the knight class and the noble class.
The nobles who appeared at the beginning all had territories.
The various classes of landless nobles who appeared later and were called court nobles were essentially for this reason.
The king could not arbitrarily grant territories because of his own favoritism, but he needed to reward those loyal subordinates who did not have enough military achievements to be granted titles.
The noble enfeoffment system was very strict, and reasons such as dying for the king were basically meaningless.
After all, as long as the king wanted, he could create a 'dying for the king' at any time.
Every seemingly strict and rigid rule is actually a reflection of countless lessons learned.
Therefore, being able to give Agnes this title was really the White Dragon King's greatest effort... although no one mentioned it openly, in essence, who couldn't guess that this girl was already a member of the Tower Church!
She was just missing a microphone.
However, as long as she didn't have this microphone, those who wanted to play dumb could still play it.
It just depended on whether the Storm Church was willing to swallow this anger.
Therefore, the White Dragon King really gave the greatest sincerity: with this proper title, Agnes could go to any country at will.
Including those within the sphere of influence that didn't get along well with the Storm Church.
Although doing so might, um, be shifting the blame... but what did it have to do with him, a Northern King?
It is said that Agnes also received a portion of Count Gezarr's property as compensation for her unfortunate days.
The Storm Church had no objection to this, and even sent out a portion of their own compensation... although the high priest pushed the main responsibility to Count Gezarr, he couldn't completely extricate himself.
Even if he said that he could still hold power in the future, it was impossible not to receive any punishment.
Of course, the most important thing was that the Lord of Storms himself ignored those reasons and completely stripped all the divine arts granted to those involved.
Although the part of his divinity that remained in this world was very rough when dealing with problems and was often confused by the archbishops of the Storm Church, his way of solving problems had always been direct:
You say he has no problem and cannot be executed, then I will listen first.
But since he was implicated, it means he did something that would be implicated... my divine arts cannot be bestowed on such people to use.
That high priest now only possesses the mental strength and spellcasting ability that have become powerful because of the power of the storm.
After all, the Lord of Storms did not deprive him of the divine power that maintained his life.
But, the high priest can now only regard himself as half a mage.
If he learns well, he can still be considered half a seventh-circle mage, if he doesn't learn well... maybe he can't even beat Lowry.
Of course, as long as such a 'sinner's' position in the Storm Church remains unchanged, and most importantly, the parish he controls is still in his hands, then he will eventually be able to return to his strongest self.
It's just that he has to walk the apprentice path again.
That guy has disappeared without a trace since the accident, and all affairs are being handled by Duke Schroeder.
Although this one is also listed among them, it doesn't have much impact on him.
After all, Count Gezarr took all the blame... he probably wasn't very willing, he just didn't have the opportunity to speak from the beginning... Duke Schroeder just accepted his subordinates' flattery, which was very immoral, but not illegal.
Even in terms of morality, it's not a big problem at all.
However, Baroness Agnes distributed all the things the Storm Church gave her to the poor people in the capital on the same day.
Note: It was distributed according to the list of people who went to skin the rabbits for the chamber of commerce back then.
Then this lady left the capital tearfully under the spotlight, resolutely, and is said to be going to see the world.
And Mrs. Yagris, Lowry's biological mother, of the Barony of Gezarr, also received a little compensation.
After all, the White Dragon King's envoy specifically brought up the matter of that Baron Gezarr back then for questioning.
With Count Gezarr already taking his family to be completely destroyed, and only Agnes, who was full of hatred for everyone, glaring at them, those who had followed Count Gezarr for a long time just wanted to end the trial as soon as possible.
The sooner he died, the more likely his family would survive.
The longer it dragged on, the easier it was to suspect that he had exposed something that shouldn't have been exposed, so that the people on the White Dragon King's side wanted to keep them.
Therefore, these people almost couldn't wait to confess their crimes, for fear of causing trouble if they were slow... in this case, surviving was the most terrible disaster.
Mrs. Yagris's father, the former pain, naturally came to light.
In fact, if you say that Count Gezarr directly took any harsh measures against him, it wouldn't be the case.
It was just cutting flesh with a dull knife.
The most ruthless step was to block the road ahead of him when he was still young and promising.
In fact, it was the job that Old Count Gezarr had prepared for his son to enter the King's Guard.
After working for less than a month, before he had made many friends, a big mistake inexplicably occurred and he went straight back home.
The reason why Count Gezarr did this so ruthlessly was because he had already hooked up with Duke Schroeder before inheriting the title.
Duke Schroeder, who was watching the next Count Gezarr be his own man, naturally set his sights on Lowry's unfortunate maternal grandfather.
Of course, he wasn't confident enough to think that he could get it if he wanted it, after all, Old Gezarr was still there!
But, if he could marry a noble lady who was secretly on their side through Count Gezarr... the older brother was, the wife was, then why couldn't he be?
Unfortunately, Count Gezarr only felt that this was a threat to him, so he simply created a big mistake and conveniently stuffed a lady who was in an awkward position, not in good health, but whose identity was still good, to his younger brother.
