Dear Broom Knight

"So strong?" Bass was taken aback. "Didn't they say it was only level 10 at most?"

"Don't listen to her bullshit!" Carter lowered his voice and shouted angrily, "Those adventurers don't dare to tell us any truth. They can directly confirm that the Great Banyan Tree is at least level 14!

What does 'at least' mean? You can't be that dense, right?

The only reason he hasn't reached level 15 is because he's limited by that woman's strength in Azure Maple Valley, not because he doesn't have the ability himself.

In other words, Valera has long surpassed the level 10 barrier and is a legitimate level 11 powerhouse!

Level 10 and level 11 are worlds apart!

Among our group, there are only eight people above level 10. To attack is to court death!"

Barry scratched his head: "I can't control that. Anyway, it was agreed from the start that I'd come out with you this time and then go straight into battle.

But if we can't win, no one can stop me from running away at the last moment.

But don't worry, my escape skill can only be used when I'm almost dead, so I'll definitely do my best to help."

Why would the Lord of the Frozen Wastes give his loyal followers such a life-saving measure? Isn't it because he already knows that his people will let their nature run wild!

Although they won't disobey the will of the Lord of the Frozen Wastes, it's uncertain which direction they'll veer off in, or whether they'll almost kill themselves with their reckless antics before even reaching the formal stage.

Therefore, they can't be left without a means of self-preservation, nor can they be allowed to run away midway... or maybe not run, but it's quite normal for them to wander off for no reason.

Barry, who's just too direct with his words and doesn't think before acting, is considered relatively easy to communicate with among those from the Cult of the Frozen Wastes.

Queen Rosalind must have paid a considerable price to get such a thug... The Cult of the Frozen Wastes actually knows what kind of people are usable.

It's just unknown whether the divine power of the Lord of the Frozen Wastes is too infectious, as most believers tend to be the type who like to make their own decisions and find their own direction in life.

Therefore, the more you understand the believers of the Frozen Wastes, the more you understand how such a bizarre animal as the Icehound came to be.

After all, the native magic dogs of the Icefield, although not as good-looking as the Icehounds and dull in color, are smart enough!

They can find their way home even if they get lost, unlike the Icehounds, which can get lost after going only 500 meters alone.

The believers of the Frozen Wastes are no different.

Even with Barry, who's said to be a little easier to manage than the average believer, they've had to stop and look for him several times along the way.

Fortunately, this guy is indeed a little smarter. When he realizes he can't find his way, Barry usually sits down on the spot and burns some grass or branches to make smoke.

Mainly because he's strong enough, so he doesn't have to worry about being ambushed by man-eating creatures or bandits before someone finds him.

Before this, Rogers' biggest worry was encountering a powerhouse who would always believe in their own judgment and go further and further down the wrong path, never to be found.

Unfortunately, the higher the level of the Cultists of the Frozen Wastes, the more serious similar problems become.

He sighed slightly: "We knew before we came that this time, the money wouldn't be easy to earn!

Don't be discouraged, we're not without a chance.

I don't believe that the Northern Lands are full of good people... The Azure Maple Lord controls things too tightly, and there must be people trying to overthrow this overly stable order.

When the order is too strong, only the master will make money, never the outsiders.

Although there are many resources on the Great Ice Mountain, enough for them to earn a lot of money.

But when has hard-earned money ever been real money?

People who want to make huge profits will definitely not accept the current situation.

Indeed, the Azure Maple Lord didn't force the adventurers on the Ice Mountain to abide by his rules, and didn't even make things difficult for people in terms of basic living supplies, only making demands on those who wanted to buy his magic items or rest in Azure Maple Valley.

This sounds like there's nothing wrong with it.

But precisely because he didn't force anything, leaving everything to people's own choices, most adventurers naturally followed the rules.

In this world, there are actually more good people than bad!

Many people only act recklessly when there's an environment that encourages it.

If most people are good, even if greed arises in their hearts, they can suppress it.

For those who like to play tricks, only when things are chaotic, when everyone is doing evil, can they rely on their rich experience to win in the chaos.

The Great Ice Mountain, which is public and has noble forces stirring things up, should have been... nothing but chaos.

Actually... when the Azure Maple Lord didn't accept the Great Ice Mountain as his territory, we... were quite happy.

After all, that person is really difficult...

Who would have thought that even if it wasn't in his hands, he could still maintain order on the Great Ice Mountain!

It's really, too...

His words were sometimes loud, sometimes soft, and he even didn't say some keywords aloud, but those who heard it, except for Barry who didn't care, actually understood.

After these years of observation, they also have some understanding of Queen Rosalind's attributes.

No matter what her purpose is, it's certainly not for the good of the Northern Kingdom.

Then it doesn't matter.

Compared to a princess who's only thinking about her motherland, a princess who's scheming and full of thoughts of tricking people is the best queen for the Icefield.

So what if she tricks a thousand people to death in the Icefield Kingdom?

Among these thousand people, there might not even be one who truly belongs to His Majesty Alex.

The Icefield King isn't stupid. Since he knows that his queen has impure thoughts, he certainly won't send his most loyal subordinates to their deaths!

As for the fact that Rosalind's hand has easily stretched out of the palace because of his handling, and has even gathered some ministers and nobles, Alex doesn't care at all.

The Icefield royal family has been unlucky for so many years, and the loyal and good generals who remain are undoubtedly loyal.

Those who can be taken away by Rosalind were never his people in the first place, or at worst, they were his mother's people.

But Alex actually understands that his mother's subordinates don't necessarily follow him. They were originally from the Northern Lands!

That's a battle between the two Northern princesses, and it has nothing to do with the Icefield people.

Anyway, the Icefield is already so chaotic, what difference does it make if it's even more chaotic?

Although Alex was a little confused by Rosalind's actions at first, and still doesn't understand what she's up to, he can see the most important thing: Rosalind's feelings for the Northern Lands and the White Dragon King are not as strong as his own mother's.

The reason why his mother can restrain her desire to fight for the interests of the Northern Lands is because of her own son.

As long as he's still around, his mother will only fight for some unimportant court power and a part of the noble forces established for self-protection, and will not pay attention to what's happening outside.

However, his mother was also someone who once held the power of the country!

Only placing some restrictions on Alex in the most important areas is the greatest expression of his mother's love.

All of Alex's initial hopes for his fiancée Rosalind were that she could help delay his mother and divert her attention.

But this one is doing really well.

So well that even though the Northern Lands have given so many resources, the benefits taken back are no different from transactions between countries.

If it were a queen who was loyal to the Northern Lands, in the situation where Rosalind and his mother cooperated, Alex would never have sent out such a Great Ice Mountain that contained hidden dangers.

But precisely because Rosalind completely abandoned her identity as a Northern princess as soon as she married, and completely acted as Alex's wife, the Icefield King had to reciprocate with the same 'passionate love'.

The Icefield King, who has always been cold and only likes to measure feelings with reason, is not having a very comfortable life.

The only thing worth celebrating is that what Rosalind wants is his performance, not his true feelings.

Otherwise, His Majesty Alex would probably have been unable to continue acting.

Even the Cultists of the Frozen Wastes know that no dog wants to enter the current Icefield Palace... Normal people would only find the hypocritical sweet talk disgusting and would eventually run away.

The key is that there are still a group of women who don't know why they have to squeeze in.

Knowing that His Majesty Alex must be loving with Queen Rosalind for certain purposes, they still have to go in and be that stepping stone.

Of course, there must be some who have other ideas.

Queen Rosalind's personality is a bit strange.

She truly feels that marrying some noble women to knights who aren't high enough in status is a humiliation.

The knights who appear in the palace, especially the young ones, must have enough talent.

Especially in a place like the Icefield Palace, knights who aren't high in status but can still appear are even more outstanding!

The noble women of the Icefield don't have it as easy as those in the Northern Lands, otherwise so many girls wouldn't voluntarily become believers of the Frozen Wastes.

Being able to marry a young, promising, and decent-looking... handsome one, Rosalind wouldn't use it as a means of punishment... and they don't need to burden him to work for their family, allowing them to live a normal married life is simply a dream come true!

Then there may also be some girls mixed in who have other intentions, possibly sent by the church, and they'll stir up even more trouble.

Before His Majesty Alex officially took a wife, he probably wasn't as popular as he is now.

Normal people like Rogers really can't stay in the palace.

They realized for the first time that having too many beautiful women is actually a nightmare.
