Dear Broom Knight

Only after a child reaches the age of three can you discern their potential.

Just like Lowry, who began knight training at three.

Even if they can't officially activate their bloodline, you can still see a hint of what's to come.

The speed of their swings, the rhythm of their training, all offer glimpses into a child's future.

A child who starts training at three and shows promise might not have the best talent upon awakening, but they definitely won't be talentless.

Pat still doesn't know if she's lucky or unlucky.

Like she once told Yaggs, she never went out to see the Storm Church's traveling celebrations.

After all, even after being rescued, her uncontrolled emotions would cause her to go mad at anything related to that church.

Although she was only trapped in that devil's den for less than half a year, she witnessed the tragic fates of several Gzar girls like herself!

The Storm Lord's Archbishop believed that only the purest young girls, when faced with the most terrifying crisis, could ignite the bloodline within their bones.

So, after soaking in the purest Storm Altar for two years, those girls lived a nightmare.

...

And children like Pat, who hadn't been completely cleansed, would be hung in fountain-like altars, forced to witness everything that happened to girls of their bloodline.

Although she was only three and didn't fully understand what was happening, the intense fear and disgust made a lasting impression on Pat.

Fortunately, just as she was forcing herself to forget the good memories and turn into a blank idiot, the devil's den was breached by a heretical cult... How ridiculous!

Innocent people rescued from a righteous church by heretics.

They were even willing to send the children back home.

Of course, Pat now knows that the High Tower Church, having seized such a massive handle against the Storm Church, was overjoyed.

This doesn't mean they threatened the Storm Church; those guys weren't worthy.

In fact, in terms of strength alone, the High Tower Church isn't weak.

They seem less prestigious than the Ice and Snow Heresy because their leader's reputation has been diminished to the extreme.

Instead of being unable to make mortals even remember the concept of a tower, as in the past.

So, even though they were eccentric and insidious, the High Tower Church's higher-ups handled things perfectly, ensuring that the Storm Lord, who knew the truth, couldn't say anything harsh.

They even sent some girls who had completely lost their ability to survive independently and had nowhere to go to their headquarters to be well cared for.

Pat wasn't the only Gzar rescued by the High Tower Church, but she was the only one who returned to a normal life.

Because her family had been frantically searching for her, even going to the Gzar Earl, knowing he was problematic but choosing to ignore it.

What could two ordinary people who weren't even formal professionals do?

In fact, if Lady Yaggs's father, who hadn't completely fallen, hadn't helped them, Pat might have never seen her parents again, like some of the other girls.

Of course, some girls' families didn't care about their existence at all and even erased their names directly.

Of course, in this world, women are not unable to survive independently and can also make themselves go a little more smoothly through exercise.

But how could those girls, who were so numb that they didn't even want to look at themselves, survive on their own?

Fortunately, there was a place to go, and enough time to slowly forget... The High Tower Church treated these girls very well and hoped they would live a long time.

Even knowing that Pat's return was abnormal, even knowing that their daughter might have encountered something incredibly terrible, Pat's parents chose to swallow all the sorrow and take care of their poor daughter.

Even when they discovered that Pat might be communicating with something that shouldn't exist, they didn't hesitate to choose silence and protection.

Although she had sworn allegiance to the Lord of the High Tower from the beginning, the most important thing for those unlucky children to him was to live longer, so that he would always have a reason to chat with the Storm Lord.

Then, when her parents knew she wanted to formally awaken, they chose to send her to Yaggs... for fear that the Gzar Earl would discover that this child, who should have disappeared, had actually returned alive.

As a result, the funniest and most disgusting thing happened: the Gzar Earl completely didn't remember their family.

Pat's parents simply entrusted her to Yaggs.

What could they do? Even though they had been saved by Yaggs's father, their bodies were still severely damaged, and they passed away not long after that Gzar Baron died.

Even though the Gzar Earl had been plotting against his younger brother's family, it could only be a secret conspiracy.

If Lady Yaggs's father had been as determined to walk the path of a knight as she was, he wouldn't have died so early.

However, the once-beloved young master only had romance in his mind; although kind, he was easily bullied.

Unfortunately, even the wife he married was just like him, only interested in poetry and unwilling to get involved in worldly affairs.

After selling all the resource mines that the Gzar Earl wanted, the couple, with no hope for the future, simply worried themselves to death.

Yaggs really had a hard time those years.

At a young age, she shouldered the burden of the family... but those two above her wouldn't listen to her.

After Pat and the others arrived at Yaggs's side, they followed her over the mountains and ridges, struggling to survive, and the first thing they did every morning was to consider what they could hunt to fill their stomachs.

But this kind of life was also good for Pat.

She, in fact, gradually forgot a lot of the resentment in her heart.

Until she sensed the presence of those old guys again in the Montes Territory.
