Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 102 Alex with a brain full of water

"My Lord Baron, could you please pay attention to me?" Taylor knocked desperately on the study door.

Chesca, who had come to report to Lori, couldn't help but take a few steps back when he saw his brother's desperate expression.

She already had an outrageous amount of work to do and had no intention of working even a minute overtime.

Especially since Taylor was mainly responsible for the work at the knight training ground, it was as annoying as it could be... I was talking about the knight Alex who did not follow his cousin to the earldom, but stayed in the Barondom of Gezar and spent every day with the truly innocent children.

That guy is really busy, and he has always hoped that the Living Feather Knights could be transformed into a real military organization... The current form of a noble standard private army with a main group and a deputy group, although very flexible, cannot participate in larger-scale wars.

After all, there is always a big gap between cooperating with only dozens of people for years and those legions that are good at cooperating with hundreds of people.

However, is Lowry the kind of person who can be convinced by a righteous knight?
All of Alex's heartfelt suggestions were shattered by the words "mages shouldn't be on the front line".

All Lori wanted, and needed, was a flexibly maneuverable knight group that could protect the territory, so he didn't need to worry about that at all.

Anyway, as a lord who has a close relationship with His Majesty the King, he never cares whether his subjects intend to join the King's Army or not.

Although he had strict requirements for children who joined his order, they were not as high as those in other territories.

This is actually the greatest tolerance that Lowry can show as a lord: if you want to achieve great things, go to the King's Army.

As for whether he can get in, that has nothing to do with him.

Anyway, although the Barony of Lori is the only territory in the northern border that has an awakening magic circle besides the Earldom of Hamilton and the Earldom of Montes, he really doesn't care where these children who have been detected to have talents go.

Even the children who were recruited by the Living Feather Knights had registered on their own. Even if no one came, Baron Lori didn't care at all.

I don’t know if it’s because of his attitude, but the new knights of the Living Feather Knights have very natural personalities... and they don’t have any ambitions at all.

Chesca guessed that Knight Alex would no longer be able to say such nonsense as children without ambition, naive and romantic are the most beautiful scenery in life.

Ambition and desire are the driving force that keeps people moving forward.

As long as it is not obtained by hurting others, it should be praised.

I've seen too much lust in the palace so I want to see some innocent and romantic stupid prince!
Don't you think about where he gets the calmness from sitting on the high platform and watching the people below fighting for a piece of meat and bone!

Cheska, who had witnessed his parents' madness, his brothers and sisters' struggles, and even his own efforts to live with dignity since childhood, looked down on the future king of the ice field and felt that it was not easy for his mother to give birth to him and raise him.

Just think about it, so many queens have died in their Northern Kingdom. Even if there are various reasons for sorrow, there must be many external influences.

Even queens with lesser means cannot support the princes and princesses in their own palaces... Even though everyone knows that these children are not competitive, some people will still take action if there is an opportunity.

It is even possible that the people who took action were not doing it for the sake of royal power or other major issues, but simply did not want to make a certain queen and her family happy.

Even if the men that King White Dragon sent to his daughter were very powerful, it would definitely not be easy to keep an heir to the throne in a place where they were unfamiliar with the place and might not even know the food.

The eldest princess was able to raise her son to have such a righteous character... Chesca sometimes wondered if the queen, who wanted to hold power more, did this on purpose.

But judging from the fact that she entrusted Alex to her father and nephew, it doesn't seem to be the case.

At least this knight has grown a bit in the past few years and no longer accuses others of violating the chivalrous code.

But, generally speaking, the only person who can break Taylor's defense like this is Lord Alex.

Sometimes you can't say that it's wrong for him to think and do something like that... But Chesca doesn't want to discuss with him why doing the right thing at the wrong time is the biggest mistake.

Taylor knocked for more than ten minutes before the study door slowly opened... Although it was obvious that Lori was doing something, as long as there was no flashing light of the isolation array outside the door, it meant that they were allowed to disturb him.

Otherwise, Cheska wouldn't have come to me at this time.

She knew very well that Lori didn't open the door for a long time not because he was busy, but because he didn't want to face the difficult problem that Taylor was about to bring up.

After moving his heels slightly a few times, Chesca chose to follow his inner intuition and walked towards the study door.

Anyway, Taylor didn't close the door when he rushed in, did he?
"My Lord Baron!" Knight Taylor, who had grown to two meters tall and had broad shoulders and a strong waist, resolutely rushed towards Lowry who was standing next to the huge easel by the window. "Alex said he wanted to compete with Miriam!"

"Huh? What are you competing for?" After hearing the unexpected words, Lowry, who was wearing a gray robe and packing up his palette, turned his head in surprise.

"Sister Valera! That Miriam has been pursuing our eldest sister in the past few years!" Taylor was stunned for a moment before answering quickly.

Lori's reaction did surprise him. After all, this matter was not a secret in the Barony of Gezar.

Otherwise, every time Hamilton went to Baron Gezar's territory, Miriam would not be responsible for everything. But it is understandable if you think about it.

Baron Lowry has always been dismissive of love affairs.

Of course, in fact, the siblings didn’t feel anything about this matter. Whoever was moved could go by himself. Anyway, no one dared to touch them.

Their eldest sister has finally taken control of her destiny, and there is no way she would give it up for a man. There is no need for her younger brothers and sisters to interfere.

But Alex is different.

Even if Valeera had no interest in him, his love for her would still bring huge troubles... such as the rather glorious Queen of the Icefield.

Everyone knows that even if Alex cannot continue to marry a royal princess, he will have to marry a noble woman with blood ties to the royal family.

Maybe the royal capital has already prepared a few rouge banquets for him!

If people felt that Valeera, who was relatively a commoner, was an eyesore to them, someone would definitely come and remove the stone!

If something happens to my elder sister, what would it matter even if Baron Lowry gets furious or even retaliates?

Taylor was really worried.

"Damn idiot!" Chesca, who was standing at the door, couldn't help but curse out loud.

Lori glanced at her, took off the thin gloves on his hands, and shook his head gently: "Taylor, calm down.

Alex is just stupid, not crazy."

Taylor looked at them a little confused: the reactions of the second sister and the Baron were not right.

"Is he close to that Miriam?" Lori, sitting behind the desk, asked Cheska softly.

"Very good. Back then, Tiger Blade should have been arranged for Miriam to take care of and lead him when he was still a minor." Chesca replied calmly.

"Sometimes I always think that the saying that direwolves become ice dogs when they leave their homeland because the water in their brains melts is a joke." Lowry said impatiently, "But Alex really makes me feel that this sentence is the most true portrayal. After all, people are like this."

"But, why?" Taylor couldn't understand Alex's train of thought at all. "What if Valera suddenly had a brain seizure and really agreed to him? That's the position of queen of a country."

"In that case, doesn't it prove that Valera rejected Miriam not because of love, but because the other party did not have enough power!" Chesca figured it out instantly, "If Valera ignored Alex, but faced with such a troublesome suitor, she might also consider getting married early to avoid trouble.

Miriam, who is Earl Hamilton's confidant and a legitimate baron of the territory, is considered to be a leader among Valera's followers."

Taylor tilted his head in confusion: "But, with Valera's temper, she should be more likely to keep a male lover, right?"

As long as a formal partnership ceremony is held, even if it is not as solemn as a marriage, the children born will be recognized... This is enough to prove that Valeera is not interested in Alex at all.

As the future heir to the throne, there is no way he would marry a woman with a partner as his queen.

Even if the two of them have any connection in the future, that's it.

It is impossible for a lover to affect any serious matters.

"Alex, I think you're leaving." Lori thought for a while before saying, "Otherwise, you wouldn't do something like this all of a sudden."

Although Alex always has some problems from time to time, he still knows a little about seeking benefits and avoiding harm.

For example, he would never do anything that would cause Lowry to directly ask him to be expelled.

Even though he always causes trouble for Lowry, no matter how impatient Lowry is, he will not think that he is being unreasonable when arguing about the future development of the Cavaliers.

There's nothing wrong with wanting a better future for the little knight you bring up.

But like this time, when his brain suddenly started to flood, Alex must have spoken without thinking much.

The thing that could make him suddenly go crazy like this was probably that the people next door were coming to pick someone up.

"Have there been a lot of guests in the territory recently?" Lori frowned and asked Cheska seriously, "They are not the kind of caravans that leave after completing the transaction in Qingfeng Valley, but they are coming to our place."

Cheska nodded quickly. "Yes, there were a lot of them. However, they went straight to the magic item shop to look at the illusion cards. They didn't ask to see the Baron, so I didn't pay much attention."
