Dear Broom Knight

#470 - Lowry's Dissatisfaction

Before Tyler could finish speaking, a volley of short arrows, shimmering with a dark cyan light, shot towards the direction Charis had just spoken from.

Tyler was right.

The primary target of these spies mixed in with the adventurers was Charis. His arrow was only meant to attract attention and, incidentally, to set him up.

Lorry, sitting high in the clouds, narrowed his eyes dangerously and instantly straightened up.

"What are you worried about?" Boranios asked, puzzled. "Your Charis has already been teleported by the Banyan Tree to a distant place on the other side.

The arrows didn't even touch him."

"It's not a matter of whether they hit him or not," Lorry said coldly. "They really intend to kill Charis."

"Didn't those people target Valera before?" Boranios was a little confused. "I didn't see you get this angry then!"

"That's because those who could truly harm Valera wouldn't act against her without a necessary reason," Lorry said, carefully observing the person who had attacked, firmly memorizing the aura and characteristics they displayed before calming down. "The schemes between the gods are in the past.

Even if they fail, they won't attack Valera again without a reason."

Although Lorry held a grudge, he still understood the reasoning behind it.

He even finally understood why the gods, when facing schemes from other gods, would either retaliate on the spot or wait for a suitable opportunity to settle the score, never actively seeking revenge afterward.

This wasn't just a matter of strength; the most important thing was whether they could withstand such a prolonged conflict.

Especially when someone was definitely plotting behind the scenes.

Everyone could only cease fighting after a brief exchange, regardless of winning or losing, to avoid mutual destruction, lying there unable to move, only watching as someone else reaped the benefits.

Although Lorry was already very strong and could exchange blows with some gods, he couldn't fight on two fronts.

Therefore, with Valera not constantly being targeted, and with the gods not personally intervening again in the short term, Lorry naturally wouldn't dwell on it too much.

Besides, he wasn't the one suffering the loss.

Although Lorry would definitely kick someone when they were down if he had the chance, he had to wait for someone to fall first, right?

The gods were long accustomed to such things and naturally wouldn't hold a grudge against him for fear of Lorry's retaliation.

So, the matter was temporarily over.

No matter how friendly Leon and Lorry's relationship was, in the face of the lives of these people who, although not high in status, had followed them for years, even if they understood it was incited by outsiders, there would still be cracks.

Perhaps, in the eyes of these people, they had specifically chosen subordinates who had the least impact on the forces of the two, so it wouldn't be a complete offense to Leon and Lorry.

They might not even think they could succeed.

The main purpose was to annoy Leon and Lorry.

The people involved here have very complicated backgrounds… With so many sons of Travis, and the great nobles behind those sons, would they just watch Leon return to power?

Fearing Travis and not directly harming Leon himself didn't mean they wouldn't use various means to force Leon to make mistakes.

Before he ascended the throne, anything could happen, and he could be replaced at any time.

In fact, the possibility of this matter being aimed at Lorry himself was the least likely.

But Lorry understood very well that he had to retaliate with thunderous force when such things began to appear.

Otherwise, once some people felt they could use him, Lorry, as a stepping stone, there would be no end to the trouble.

Besides, did these nobles have the qualification to make Lorry compromise?

Boranios didn't not understand these principles, but in his opinion, Charis didn't have the value to make Lorry care so much.

After all, if there were no special opportunities, Charis would at most be a level 10 swordsman… The lifespan of a swordsman is even shorter than that of a knight.

Living to a hundred years old could actually be considered a blessing for Charis.

This was even under the premise of Lorry's continued feeding.

"You have to get used to loss, Lorry," he thought for a moment, then comforted him in his own way. "Don't put too much emotion into mortals in the future.

I and Ruthkania are different, with a stronger neutral alignment, so I can see some things…"

He glanced at Lorry: "Some dragons of the good alignment eventually go mad because they put the most unnecessary emotions into the wrong people.

Humans, to us dragons, are actually very dangerous.

Although I don't agree with the chromatic dragons' contempt for humans, it's not wrong to be a little indifferent and a little wary."

Lorry understood why Boranios said these words.

Now, everyone is young, so they don't really feel anything.

But after decades, or a hundred years, what will the feeling be in the hearts of the aging people watching Lorry, who still has an unchanging face?

If Lorry was as high above as Travis, even with so many descendants, but still far apart, that would be fine.

But he obviously cared about the Toler siblings.

The other few were fine; at least they could go to the stars before entering old age.

But Charis, who could hardly pass level 10, didn't even have the possibility of leaving the world.

Even the interstellar fortresses that allow people to live normally require at least level 12 knights to live in them.

That is the level that allows one's body to officially form an internal circulation.

Only mages can enter the stars after level eight.

After all, the reason there is this requirement is because the interstellar fortresses are not so perfect.

Just like the space capsules of the past, even if they reached the point of solving the gravity problem, damage to the capsule would be fatal to people not wearing spacesuits.

Interstellar fortresses built using magical means are the same.

In fact, the possibility of damage is even higher.

Interstellar fortresses need to be re-inspected and repaired every few years.

Internal circulation is like the spacesuit worn by humans, which can save their lives in unexpected situations.

But long-term exposure to the stars requires professionals to be at least level eight, and they can move freely after reaching level nine.

And Charis is likely to be the only one who can't reach the standard line.

"Boranios," Lorry looked at the huge white dragon, "Thank you for your kindness.

But, for humans, decades are enough to turn the world upside down.

Charis may be decadent, or he may become unrecognizable because of those strange emotions.

But before these things happen, I won't presuppose the worst outcome for him."

"Hmm?" Boranios tilted his head and thought for a moment before saying, "You want to use the original energy tide when the world reopens?

With Charis's physique… can he do it?"

"Charis is a swordsman, Boranios," Lorry said calmly, "There is no need to doubt whether he has enough willpower to hold on to the end.

Moreover, I have already provided him with everything I can provide… Boranios, I do these things not because of them, but for myself."

Back then, he was a bit reckless in that dazed, weird, and possibly influenced by the mechanical realm artifact.

He naturally didn't consider so much when taking in subordinates.

Besides, he didn't know he could live so long at that time, and he was still thinking about how to build his territory impenetrable!

Even for the sake of betting with the Montes Count family, Lorry could not allow his territory to be built poorly.

The Toler siblings, as well as Marl and Komlan, were all carefully selected subordinates… Although he didn't know any means of bestowing favor, focusing on treating people with sincerity, Lorry himself chose who to give this emotion to.

His vision was indeed very good.

These people he brought out were all loyal.

Lorry really couldn't be too indifferent to those loyal to him.

He also had no interest in changing his personality for the sake of these few people, creating some kind of aura of dominance.

At the very least, he had to ensure that Lorry could be clear conscience when he recalled the present, no matter when.

Boranios thought for a moment, but still couldn't understand.

But he didn't plan to interfere too much: "It's good if you can figure it out yourself.

Anyway, you are still young, even if… there is enough time to heal.

So now, what are you going to do?"

Lorry looked down: "In terms of combat power, Bo Bo is really, always going forward, unique."

Clearly, this child has a very impulsive personality and is prone to entering a fanatical state.

But when he truly enters the moment of slaughter, Bo Bo's every move is very calm.

He is very calm when killing people, and he is also very calm when he discovers that there are poisons on those weapons.

The movements are very clean and neat.

Weiss was obviously a little excited, and some movements were deformed.

Boranios, who also discovered this, said unhappily: "No wonder that… looks down on Weiss. He is really too easily influenced by the environment."

"Anyway, Weiss doesn't plan to leave after entering adolescence," Lorry smiled. "Your Ice Pillar Peak is probably going to be left to him."

"I originally thought that Lily would live there," Boranios sighed deeply, "But Lily… is even more like Ruthkania than I thought."

"What's wrong with liking to enjoy life?" Lorry looked at him disapprovingly.

"You really spoil your children too much, Lorry.

Lily should at least learn to mine, right?"
