Dear Broom Knight

#374 - Lowry, who acted secretly

Charles shook his head: "Our lord certainly won't make a big fuss, but... he can make someone itch all over for decades."

Valera glared at him: "You really are a stupid little brother!"

Charles looked at his sister in confusion.

"Our Baron certainly won't make a mortal enemy over something that just harasses him and makes him a little unhappy." Valera smiled calmly, "But that doesn't mean he only does small acts of revenge.

If he really doesn't care and feels the transgression is tolerable, the Baron doesn't actually care at all.

If he couldn't fight back at the time, he would forget about it afterwards.

But, if it's something that makes him brood, then those methods he has to make people itch for decades are all for a final, decisive strike.

Even if he can't seriously injure someone to the point of near death, he has to break their bones.

Do you still remember Dorisk, who was always creating small troubles for Baron Lowry because he was dissatisfied with him over trivial matters?"

Charles was stunned for a moment: "But wasn't he implicated because he was repeatedly used by people, so..."

"I can guarantee that the Baron knew from the beginning that Dorisk wasn't just implicated by his new wife.

But he didn't say anything, and even added fuel to the fire regarding Dorisk's wife's ignorance." Valera laughed, "However, after that incident broke out, looking back, you can understand that Dorisk's choice of that lady among the candidates was also influenced.

Some of the testimonies he gave for this wife, even the cover-ups that dragged down the Minister of Finance, were all his attempts to conceal things from His Majesty the King for his own benefit!

If this matter had been exposed at that time, the reason why Dorisk was truly abandoned by His Majesty the King would have been lost!

Logically speaking, the safety of the Court Affairs Officers should be the responsibility of the palace's hidden defenders, in addition to their own responsibility.

Allowing them, who live in the palace, to be manipulated by others is naturally also their responsibility.

Therefore, as long as Dorisk himself had no problems, or even if he was just prone to losing his guard due to old age, His Majesty the King would not have been truly dissatisfied.

Even if he wanted him to retire, it wouldn't have been so sudden, without even completing the handover work.

Just like the last time he was influenced by outsiders because of his selfish thoughts... the Court Secret Service, who didn't discover any problems with the people around him, of course also bears a great responsibility.

The reason why the White Dragon King has never had any problems is because he himself is strong enough.

But what about the previous Majesties?

What if there was an Affairs Officer secretly controlled by their side?

The Court Guardians naturally have made a big mistake.

The reason why our Baron's teacher changed his past habits and stayed firmly by the side of the White Dragon King, never mentioning the issue of going out again, is of course because he, as the Chief Court Mage, must make amends for the Guardians' mistake.

Unless it is determined that their subsequent defensive measures are flawless, he has no possibility of leaving again.

The only reason Dorisk was truly abandoned was that he chose an outsider over the White Dragon King.

It's understandable to do something for your own benefit; His Majesty the King is not a god, he won't demand that his subordinates live like devout believers, sacrificing everything for his insignificant benefit.

Indeed, everyone wants subordinates like that, but, are they dreaming?

The loyalty of the four of us to the Baron is beyond doubt, but... that's all because, after repeated incidents, our interests have become inextricably linked with the Baron's!

Of course, we are definitely willing to risk our lives for the Baron's safety now... but that's safety, not benefit.

For a truly wise superior, we are the most suitable and best subordinates.

Besides the Evil Gods, who would pursue their subordinates obeying their every word, and sacrificing their lives for themselves at every turn?

The reason for going to death is also different."

Charles said thoughtfully: "We will consider how to maximize the benefits for the lord on the premise of not harming our own interests.

But it is absolutely impossible to harm the lord for the sake of others."

He looked up at Valera: "Even between us siblings, if anyone does... it's the same."

Valera nodded calmly: "Of course.

Our brothers and sisters have had good relationships since childhood, originally because our interests were consistent and our positions were the same.

But isn't there also a depth to the feelings between us!

If someone were to harm the interests of others and hurt the position of others for their own sake, then there is nothing to say."

Charles smiled helplessly.

Although Sister Valera always speaks harshly, in essence, her heart is the softest among the siblings.

If they really had thoughts that shouldn't arise, Valera would definitely take action first to pull them back on the right track.

Those who cannot be pulled back are of course not worth saving.

After all, the person who does this is actually abandoning not only loyalty to the lord, but also the sibling relationship between them.

However, if they compared it to themselves, Charles would understand.

If something like what happened to Dorisk happened to them, they would definitely take the initiative to investigate the relevant people clearly and thoroughly, and repeatedly investigate why they chose such a partner in the first place.

Even if they couldn't find out, they would first send this partner to a safe enough place for temporary isolation for a period of time.

At least they have to prove that this person has not exerted any influence on him.

Doing so is actually a responsible performance towards the partner.

Suspecting something... if you're unlucky, sometimes you can only admit that you're unlucky.

But if you can prove their innocence, there won't be any more problems in the future.

Just like Dorisk.

If he had made sufficient arrangements for his little wife after that incident, he would not have exposed his excessive selfishness in the subsequent incident.

Although it can be said that he didn't think of it at the time... but if the Chief Affairs Officer even forgot the foundation of his life, he really didn't qualify to continue staying by His Majesty Travis's side.

Even those past companions who had always supported Dorisk, like the Minister of Finance, could not save him.

The latest ⊥ novel ⊥ is ⊥ at ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥ books ⊥ bar ⊥ first ⊥ issue!

Unless he dared to publicly say that Dorisk's behavior was nothing... but even their own brothers and sisters wouldn't do that! What can old friends do?

Charles tilted his head and pondered for a while: "Our lord can really think so far... He's so... normally..."

"The Baron's personality is a bit peculiar." Valera thought for a while before answering him, "If something happens suddenly and a decision must be made immediately, he is more inclined to be reckless, the kind of recklessness that directly kills through.

But if he has some time to carefully consider, he can come up with more insidious ideas.

I used to be a little confused, but now I understand a little.

The Baron should have gotten inspiration from his inherited memories.

Dragons have such long lives and have seen countless strange events, there must be precedents that he can just follow.

Therefore, Cheska and I will try to gossip more when reporting bad news.

Give the Baron enough time to think, and he can play out all sorts of tricks."

Charles frowned slightly: "Sister Valera, then, the Earth Church matter... the lord doesn't intend to just publicize it and regard that person as an enemy, does he?"

"What did you discover?" Valera asked with interest.

"When I returned to the castle the day before yesterday, I saw a map of all the planting bases of the Earth Church in the Baron's study.

It was a magnified phantom image using a crystal ball.

This kind of magic equipment is not easy to make, and the materials consumed are also relatively expensive.

The Baron should be thinking of... doing something."

"Ah~ Sure enough, the Baron is very angry about what happened to you." Valera couldn't help but laugh, "Just making Alex wary of him as revenge is indeed not like our Baron's personality."

Charles nodded slightly.

In fact, he was already very satisfied with this result.

To put it bluntly, he, a barely mid-level swordsman, a number of people in a barony, cannot be placed on the same scale as the main priest of the Earth Church who bears important responsibilities.

A normal lord would not recklessly publicize the shameless actions of a powerhouse like the Earth Bishop because of a subordinate like Baron Lowry.

It would be a good lord to be able to win back some compensation for his subordinates.

Although Baron Lowry dared to do this because he had certain support... but who would create danger for themselves for the sake of their subordinates?

Baron Lowry couldn't possibly never go out for the rest of his life!

His behavior offended not only that main priest in the Icefield Kingdom, but also all the archbishops of the Earth Church who had similar behaviors.

Even the Lord of the Earth...

But according to Sister Valera's statement, Charles also thought of some traces... In addition to that map, the lord seems to have been constantly looking for opportunities to trade with caravans from other countries during this period.

He even bought several horses from the Grassland Kingdom at high prices.

The Gale Wolf Caravan has been sent out by Lowry several times.

Charles wasn't really without feeling, but he really didn't expect it to be because of him.

"Our Baron is actually very protective of his own." Valera walked to Charles and patted him on the shoulder, "So, don't worry about those meaningless troubles."

Charles was slightly stunned.

"Princess Rosalind's side... I always feel like the Baron wants to play a big game."
