Dear Broom Knight

Lowry just didn't expect that, as soon as he completely delegated power to Ceska, her first reaction as the head housekeeper was to fleece her own brother.

Clearly, she cared so much for and doted on Taylor, even privately buying him special nutritional supplements during his breakthrough period.

Anything related to vitality or energy is bound to be expensive.

Even those that could be paid for with gold coins were enough to make ordinary knights balk.

Even Ceska, with her considerable wealth, would have to spend a whole year's salary to buy a set of nutritional supplements sufficient to meet Taylor's energy needs for advancement.

This was the salary of the Chief Steward of the Barony of Gezall, which was famous for its generous compensation!

Taylor's salary was certainly not low, but with his carefree personality, it was difficult for him to save money... His garden villa was filled with weapons and horse gear.

The reason he wasn't interested in armor, apart from the fact that the standard magical armor they wore was already the limit that knights below the high-level could reach, was also because Lowry's magical item warehouse contained several exquisite and magically powerful sets of armor.

These were all good practice pieces that Lowry made when creating exclusive personal equipment for his mother.

Taylor certainly didn't want those sets; those were Ceska's goal.

But Lowry had promised that whoever of them reached level 10 first, Lowry would tailor-make a set for them.

Of course, it would have to be one with all the specializations.

Having seen such perfect things, how could they still want those old things that were unchanging, with only slight differences in the patterns?

Lowry wasn't an ordinary armorer; he had his own unique sense of beauty, and this beauty, in the eyes of young Taylor, was simply the most wonderful dream.

The inner spirit of a homebody could easily resonate with these young people.

But Taylor was still diligent in collecting weapons.

After all, in this world where weapons were mainly made by forging, even standard weapons would have slight differences in their patterns.

Although Lowry didn't understand Taylor's madness of naming each weapon that looked almost the same, as a fellow homebody, he could still empathize with this hobby to some extent.

Ceska, also a knight, could also understand the hobby of collecting weapons, but she didn't agree with Taylor's view that even the slightest difference was a 'brand new beauty'.

Therefore, she usually didn't cover for Taylor, and even mocked him when he was diligently saving gold coins in his piggy bank every month... Taylor hadn't forgotten that his knight advancement required a lot of energy supplementation.

But even knowing that, he would only follow tradition... Eat a set before promotion, and eat a set after promotion.

In fact, adding the fact that Lowry, as the lord, would provide them with special energy-rich meals during that period, Taylor's advancement wouldn't be a problem.

However, Ceska, as his sister, still privately added an extra portion for her little brother.

Taylor himself knew why he got to eat so many good things... The lord might subsidize him a little in private, but on the surface, he would definitely be fair; what could be publicly taken out must be a gift from his own sister.

Although Lowry couldn't interfere too much in this kind of thing, he would ask a trusted chef in the castle, who also had a certain professional level, to help make these nutritional supplements.

Although most of them only needed to be cooked, the heat was really important.

A proper chef would at least know when each ingredient was at its most perfect.

Guys like Taylor who only knew how to stew things until they were mushy would probably lose at least 20% of the energy in the food.

As for eating it raw... that would probably only have 60% of the effect at best.

Sometimes, what's needed is the reaction when several energy plants are boiled together!

These are the experiences that various knights have summarized over tens of thousands of years; even if Lowry had some unique magical plants from his demiplane, he didn't have the courage to think that he could change any of the recipes.

Even the simplest basic ratio, similar to the three primary colors.

Of course, Lowry had no problem taking out plants with higher purity and stronger energy storage according to the recipe, but even if they were plants of the same family, as long as they weren't the same species, even if they were bursting with energy, they would be useless when combined.

After Lowry tried a few times, he understood that he, a small mage who wasn't even level 16, wasn't qualified to study the materials handed down from the top-level alchemists above level 20.

Indeed, these alchemists would consider the so-called cost-effectiveness issue, but don't forget that the reason they worked so hard for the development of knights in the first place was to fight the White Dragon.

Moreover, at that time, it was a great cooperation of the entire world, and the Earth Church was naturally no exception.

As long as they had it, they could provide it with all their strength.

So, maybe there are more secret and better ratios hidden in some Star Fortress, but this basic recipe circulating throughout the world is definitely not something that a person like Lowry, who only knows a little, can handle.

The magical plants in Lowry's hand are at most rare and precious, but they are definitely not something that has never appeared before, a magical medicine that can be worth a whole set of recipes... After all, the physical condition of the user must also be considered.

But the basic advancement food he provided to Taylor and the others were all good things he got from his demiplane.

Especially those herbs that could help knights clear the deposits in their bodies... Well, they were really better than feeding them two pounds of croton.

Lowry had always known that Ceska was unwilling to take the military route, and didn't want to use the special training methods that Toleff's wife had brought back, so she had been saving money.

Taylor certainly wouldn't think so much, and would only be happy that he could save a lot of money.

But Ceska, after Valera and Charles chose the more arduous path of swordsmen, clearly had shadows in her heart.

Professional advancement, especially the level 10 barrier, can stop so many people, not only because of the physical difficulties to overcome.

This is definitely not to say that you can overcome it by enduring the discomfort in your heart.

Lowry sometimes felt that if he really persuaded Ceska to give up those resentments and haze in her heart with words like 'it's not worth it' or even 'spending their money is the biggest revenge on them', it would be as immoral as persuading a depressed patient to 'be happy'.

Was that something you could do just by thinking about it?

Therefore, he could only let Ceska choose this difficult path.

Perhaps Ceska will complete the level 10 advancement much slower than expected, but at least she can live freely.

Lowry couldn't interfere too much in Ceska's major life events... He didn't need to attack the divine forces or resist the White Dragon's raid, right?

It was precisely because of Ceska's knot in her heart that Lowry was surprised to see Ceska taking out so much money just to make Taylor's advancement more perfect.

If Taylor urgently needed these things and Ceska helped, Lowry probably wouldn't be so shocked.

Perhaps this is genuine sibling affection?

Lowry, who had no feelings for this kind of thing in both his past and present lives, could only believe in Ceska's sincere love for her younger brother.

However, just now, Ceska, who had just taken over all the authority of the territory for the first time, chose to fleece her own brother as her first act.

Lowry felt that he shouldn't try to guess a sister's feelings for her brother.

This was not a field he could touch, even more difficult to figure out than those magic potion recipes.

Instead of this, he should consider how to welcome his future nephew... No, it should be two nephews and a niece!

Yes, in the month before the dragon eggs were about to hatch, the hatchlings finally determined their genders.

Ruthkania said so, but Lowry didn't agree.

After all, he had recently started receiving various inherited knowledge, but there was nothing related to these things.

Could it be that this knowledge is only passed on to female dragons?

Also, the Dragon Book he had read before didn't seem to have similar content.

Lowry was really a little suspicious.

However, this had nothing to do with him anyway, and Lowry decided not to delve too deeply.

Although Lowry had postponed his future emotional life, just like the homebody in the past who had always been single but never gave up the possibility of one day holding hands with a lovely and charming girl who was willing to spend her life with him, Lowry never thought that he would be lonely forever.

He just wasn't willing to settle, and he wasn't so easy to open his heart.

But it didn't mean he didn't want love.

The homebody in the past, who could rely on his own efforts to settle down in a big city and live without worry, how could he really not find a girlfriend?

He just didn't want to settle.

Perhaps because he had been full of fantasies about love since he was a child, hoping that someone could sincerely only see him as a person, only love him as a person, so Lowry had been waiting.

It's just that he didn't dare to talk about love when he didn't have the ability, but when he had the ability, no one mentioned love anymore.

Therefore, Lowry could only wait silently with regret and still remaining expectations.

He knew that it might be because he lacked love since he was a child that he longed for love so much.

But why not?

Even in this world now, where he already had a sincere family love, Lowry still maintained that waiting heart.

He still wanted to know what it was like to have his heart throb.

However, so far, Lowry's fantasy object is still human.
