Dear Broom Knight

"How can that be?" Valeria briskly patted her large skirt, a smile on her face, and said, "I must have a dazzling appearance that amazes the world."

"Your appearance is the most dazzling existence," Charles still tried to persuade her, "Wearing this, riding a horse won't be very comfortable. You should at least pretend a little, right?"

"Isn't this a battle that seems like an ambush but everyone knows about it?" Valeria said dissatisfiedly, "Whether I ride the horse faster or slower, it won't have any impact.

On the contrary, it can save my horse from bad luck.

Although I don't use it much, it's still Vargas's most expensive horse!

Saving a little is saving a little."

She tugged at her long skirt, pulling open the side slit for Charles to see: "This was originally a riding outfit for noble ladies, just a little more luxurious and elegant.

It doesn't affect me getting on and off the horse, it's just riding a little slower... who cares?

Don't bother me."

Charles nodded helplessly: "Alright... fine, as long as you're happy, just be careful."

"What's there to care about?" Valeria smiled, "The castle is the most important battlefield!"

Speaking of which, someone will intercept Lowry and Bolaños who will inevitably come to rescue... but Bolaños doesn't matter, if that guy encounters a strong enemy, he's unlikely to risk his life for humans, but what about Lowry?

For his own sake, he has to do his best.

For so long, Lowry's strength has only been a verbal legend. Everyone knows he's strong, strong enough to make the gods yield.

But how strong is he exactly?

No one can say for sure, and no one can point out which strong person was personally executed by Lowry.

So, this interception is also very important for Lowry himself.

Once he reveals a flaw, or shows that he's not good at fighting, those... people standing high in the sky looking down, when planning the next conspiracy, won't bypass Qingfeng Territory like they used to.

Among the three major forces in the Northern Border, the one with the strongest backing is not Lowry.

But rather, Lyon, who is clearly being watched by the White Dragon King.

Lowry is indeed watched by many people, and many people will protect him... but only his life, not his power.

After all, those can only be considered accidentally obtained backers, not his own background.

The benefits that the Dragonkin can bring him haven't reached a certain level. Besides, it's not like there haven't been accidents with White Dragons before.

Although the White Dragon King is very protective, he will only seek revenge for dragons who have lost their lives innocently. Losing some money or face, he won't care.

Lowry's position with the White Dragon King can't be higher than a real White Dragon.

As long as he and those little dragon whelps don't die, or even get seriously injured, then Luscania can't make too much trouble... she doesn't have the ability to cause a worldwide sensation with a single move.

The adventurers and Icefield people who are making the most noise on the surface are nothing in the face of such behind-the-scenes schemes. No one cares if they all die.

These guys probably know it too, right?

So, as long as there's no problem with Lowry's side, their observation will at most be observation.

The existence of the Maple Leaf badge will make them a little more cautious.

Even if it's just a little bit of profit, most people will choose to keep what already belongs to them first, and then consider whether the benefits of losing everything are worth it."

Charles nodded: "I understand, but, better safe than sorry."

Even if he never thinks that Lowry, who has made careful preparations, will miscalculate, as the person in charge of daily affairs in Qingfeng Territory, he should fulfill his responsibilities.

"Really, a cute little brother," Valeria giggled, and then looked in the mirror again, before walking out of the hall with a calm face.

"Why not use Micro to teleport directly to the gate?" Charles asked confusedly, "You used to..."

"The past is the past," Valeria said without turning her head, "Now, I only like being the center of attention.

Just thinking about how many people in the sky and on the ground are watching me now, I'm so excited!"

—

"Mom, why are you here?" Lowry, standing in the bedroom, looking at himself in the mirror and rolling up the sleeves of his white robe, looked at Mrs. Yagris who pushed the door open in surprise.

"I can't help with anything else, but I should be able to help you guard the castle," The female knight wore her most gorgeous and precious set of armor... from Lowry's collection, shimmering with silver and sparkling with jewels.

This is the only set of proper knight armor Lowry could get... a one-to-one replica of the armor of the founding queen of that country in the game.

This achievement would only be reached when the Knights had more than fifty formal knights.

And according to the rules of that game, only fifteen knights could be obtained for free... the most basic territory tasks, these fifteen people could barely complete.

If you want to get the best score every time, you must spend money to find better knight friends.

Fifty is actually the maximum consumption.

But that game also claimed that both those who could spend money and those who could grind could have fun.

The fifteen most ordinary knights were arranged to be the player's most loyal and reliable partners, so they could continue to be cultivated.

Those who were found by spending money were hired, although they were very strong at the beginning, they actually had a limit.

Lowry was also deceived by this peculiar approach at the beginning, so he chose such a one among a series of discounted goods.

As a result... he grinded himself to death, and the strongest one he cultivated was still a little bit worse than the worst one he hired.

Lowry has become much more practical in this world, and he will never waste his time and life if he can exchange it for money, and this result is not unrelated.

It was only after death that he realized that the time and energy of people without money actually only exchanged for the money of the other party, and it was not really possible to suppress the other party.

Talent is what can level these things, but talent can also easily become... something to exchange for money because of lack of money.

Compared to the previous world, this world, which is too realistic and everything is on the surface, can make people more easily see who they really are.

However, if there was no previous life as a comparison, Lowry probably wouldn't be able to understand.

After all, the current him is the opponent who spent money in his previous life.

Lowry looked at the armor and suddenly thought of the past self who was very good at comforting himself.

Like this queen's armor, how gorgeous and powerful it is!

But besides adding a little bit of basic attributes to the person who spent money, there is only gorgeous and good-looking left.

The people who play the game can't wear it.

This little bit of attribute difference, he can catch up with just a little more effort, there is no need to get it.

However... little by little, the attributes accumulated, he had to grind for at least half a year.

And the most important thing is that in these six months, the game cannot continue to release these little bits...

Lowry suddenly smiled and patted his robe: "Mom, do you like this armor?"

Yagris didn't understand why he suddenly asked about something he gave, and nodded blankly: "Of course I like it. It's close-fitting and has almost no weight. The defense is twice as strong as my strongest armor, and it's wind attribute, which helps my fighting style a lot.

Besides, how good-looking it is! The gems are inlaid so firmly that you don't have to worry about them breaking at all."

Lowry nodded: "It's good that Mom likes it."

Yagris waved her hand: "You child, why are you suddenly talking about this at this time?

Even if you are confident, you still have to be careful!

This is war!

Every step must be taken with caution!"

Lowry smiled at her, his big eyes curved into bright moons: "Mom~ don't worry.

I'm very careful.

Since you're here, the castle is entrusted to Mom to guard.

Cheska, you and Tyler go to the city wall together!"

"Huh? Oh! Okay," Cheska nodded and quickly turned to leave.

"That child is worried about her sister, right?" Mrs. Yagris looked at her back and said with some worry, "I'm just afraid of this, so I have to come myself.

It's not that I don't believe in Cheska's will, but... her nervousness and worry are what she should have, why bother to ask her to overcome it?"

"It's good for her and Tyler to be together, they can rely on each other," Lowry opened his arms to Mrs. Yagris and immediately received a warm hug, "I also have Mom to rely on!"

Yagris shook her head helplessly and hugged her child tightly: "Then, in order to prevent the mother who relies on you from being sad, my child, please take care of yourself and don't take risks easily."

"Don't worry~ Mom," Lowry said softly in her ear, "I've made all the preparations, and, the most important preparations are all on myself.

Even if there is a real accident, I have the means to escape.

The kind that even space blockade is useless, you just need to wait for me to come back at home."

Yagris breathed a sigh of relief: "Yeah."

But she obviously didn't really let go, the faint appearance of her gale wolf partner, who had always been transformed into wind to accompany her, proved that her heart was not stable at all.

Lowry understood that Yagris used to be able to stay calm in her small manor and not care about anything because she was sure that Lowry would win, and that she herself could become Lowry's last guarantee.

But as Lowry became stronger and stronger, the problems she could solve... were not getting less and less, but almost none.

No matter how strong the child is, they are still a child, how could Yagris let go of that heart!
