Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 1071 The Winged Carriage

Antirochus felt that Euphemia's arrogance was justified.

Even when it was broad daylight and Ms. Alexandra had finished settling the check-out and returned to call them to leave, he was still immersed in joy and had no intention of arguing with Euphemia anymore.

Even when he saw Ms. Alexandra sitting in the driver's seat driving the carriage, he didn't react at all. Instead, he got into the carriage in a daze and sat upright in his seat with a smile.

When Prince Luciano asked him a probing question, he simply said goodbye in a cheerful tone... The fact that he knew not to say goodbye shows that he still had some rationality left.

Euphemia glanced at the strange-looking Crown Prince Luciano, having no intention of interacting with him, and obediently sat down next to her brother.

They were riding in a standard aristocratic four-wheeled carriage with doors on both sides.

Euphemia and Mikhail sat at the front, while the two of them sat at the back.

The front seats are quite spacious, seemingly able to seat four people, but the back seats can only seat two... Right next to Euphemia is a low storage cabinet.

She was tidying up the snack basket on top of the cabinet with a serious expression, as if arranging the snack bags inside neatly was such an important task.

Penelope watched Luciano with great interest, her expression extremely varied, clearly not thinking anything good.

Only Mikhail could still politely say goodbye to Luciano... as if he had no idea that the other party's purpose was to ask Euphemia whether she had left voluntarily.

Fortunately, Lady Alexandra didn't give them much time to say goodbye, and bluntly asked Crown Prince Luciano to leave.

After the carriage sped away from the city gate, Euphemia said with a disdainful look, "Is he sick? Asking me if I left voluntarily?"
Why doesn't he ask the new Night Guard why he went to propose to a strange girl?

Could it be that being beautiful is a reasonable standard in their eyes?
I thought I had returned to the Duchy of Harvey!

Don't Emilia's followers of the Night find this ridiculous?

“Don’t be angry.” Penelope patted Euphemia, who was sitting across from her. “At least he can only hint at it, not say it outright.”

Even if the opponent is already a level 16 Grand Knight.

However, there was a reason why the captain of the Night Guard did not feel that his behavior was offensive.

He was extremely handsome, tall and strong, the exact opposite of Luciano.

She's only 40 years old... and you can imagine what that means.

Talent and divine favor are both indispensable.

Euphemia clearly wasn't interested in men like Luciano; when she spoke to him, her expression was no different from that of her sister.

It's not that there are necessarily any ulterior motives, but rather that, regardless of whether one is a man or a woman, when facing someone they have feelings for, they will inevitably unconsciously present their best side.

Whether you like it or not is another matter, you have to put on a show first.

But Euphemia's gaze toward Luciano was extremely calm; she admired men with a fierce and ruthless fighting style.

This new captain of the Night Guard must be confident that he is Euphemia's type, which is why he dared to test her so directly.

It's likely that in his view, even if Euphemia disagreed with his pursuit 'with the premise of a partner,' she wouldn't feel it was a humiliation.

The members of the Church of the Dark Night are actually quite adept at using such methods to secretly form alliances, especially the men, who are very skilled at asserting their presence in front of women.

However, Euphemia hated the Church of the Night's practices the most.

Although she respected her father and accepted his lukewarm and seemingly nonexistent fatherly love, she disliked his dissolute and irresponsible behavior from the bottom of her heart.

This is a legacy issue from history.

The men of the Dark Night Church certainly don't have a strong sense of responsibility, nor do they have much of a family concept.

However, Euphemia grew up in a male-dominated country like the Harvey family, and she also saw another side of men.

Therefore, Euphemia actually detests having any relationship with men.

She loves her brother, respects her father, and is willing to befriend Mikhail... but falls in love with a man?
The Duke of Harvey and her own father have shattered her illusions about love, leaving only desolation.

The actions of the Night Guard Captain were nothing short of trampling on her bottom line.

Euphemia hates people who treat her like a tool... Anyone who pursues her after only a few meetings can't possibly be motivated by true love.

He wasn't some naive young man experiencing first love; he was an old man who had made a name for himself in a place like the Dark Church. How could he suddenly fall in love?
This was during his power struggle.

Euphemia was still angry when she thought about it: "How can the people of the Dark Night Church all be like this..."

"Luciano is alright, isn't he?" Penelope said calmly. "Although he's not handsome enough to be a man, he is indeed a man."

Although the question was a bit stupid, at least he asked it out in person.

Queen Louise would never have instructed him to take charge of this matter.

With someone at the main temple trying to cause trouble in Emilia, Euphemia is a big problem.

One wrong move and it could lead to the two major families going to war.

It would be better if she wanted to leave!

“How can that be the same?” Euphemia couldn’t help but laugh. “Luciano is too well protected. He’s simply…”

Then she suddenly let out a long sigh: "You're right. I knew all along that the souls of these people in the Dark Night Church were already filled with the lust for power. There's no need to get angry about it."

Only someone like Luciano would think so superficially... but Euphemia dislikes his 'naivety' even more.

She herself is full of cunning and wicked intentions, so why should she get angry just because there's an even more unscrupulous guy on the other side trying to scheme against her?

If you need to hit someone, hit them; if you need to scold someone, scold them. There's no need to get angry.

“Antirokos…” Penelope looked to the other side only after seeing that she had finally come to her senses. “How much longer will this go on?”

“Wait, once the carriage reaches the territory of the Duchy of Harvey, he should come to his senses when he remembers the way we came.” Euphemia openly chirped in front of him.

The carriage jolted slightly, as if it had come to a stop.

Euphemia and Penelope couldn't help but look out the window.

They were taken aback.

The carriage was floating in the air.

Mikhail couldn't resist his curiosity and leaned closer to the car window.

"Mom, can we open the window?" Penelope called out.

“Yes, just press the green gem on the side door,” Alexis gave an affirmative answer.

Penelope, quick-witted and agile, immediately opened the window and leaned out: "Wow~ the carriage has wings!"

Mikhail opened his window as well, and said thoughtfully, "It doesn't look like wings, it looks more like a horizontal sail."

It has a frame, a tripod, and thick fabric.

But Penelope calling them wings isn't entirely wrong.

Without needing to ask further, Mikhail knew where this thing came from.

Qingfeng Territory seems to have many strange and novel things.

Mikhail pursed his lips slightly... The pent-up frustration that had been weighing on his chest all night suddenly vanished.

Of course, it wasn't that he didn't want to go back to the home his mother cherished.

Instead, leaving the familiar place where one grew up and heading to an unfamiliar place will always cause some distracting thoughts.

What will the future hold? Will he and Penelope be able to adjust?
He also took Antirochus and Euphemia with him... Could it be that his friends' lives are worse than they were in Emilia?

Although there are always some schemes in Emilia City, all conspiracies that cannot be made public are tolerable.

In Emilia, as long as their beliefs remain steadfast, no one can harm Antirochus and Euphemia.

Once you arrive in Qingfeng Territory and re-enter another power center, will there really be no problem?
Mother has been gone from her Master Lowry and Miss Agnes for over fifty years.

Mikhail knew he might be overthinking things, but... how could he not?
However, upon seeing those large wings again, Mikhail suddenly and completely cast aside his unease.

What an imaginative and imaginative person!
The domain controlled by such a person is never stagnant or lifeless.

That means that new blood is needed anytime, anywhere.

Those who were taken back by Yariges were rare and trustworthy people.

As long as they don't steal food from other people's bowls, there probably won't be any problems.

Finally relieved, Mikhail turned around and slapped Antilokos, who was still smiling inexplicably: "Look outside! We're flying! You, have some self-respect!"

Antirochus finally came to his senses and leaned out the window to look at the scenery outside, but he stubbornly said, "How can you blame me?"
I thought I would only ever watch him live a life of glory and honor, and in the end, I would have to see him off to meet the Lord of the Earth!
As a result, he collapsed without even getting his hands dirty or his heart blackened... What a perfect outcome!

I didn't sing and dance because I still have my senses.

This does not simply mean that Bishop Garrett has fallen behind once.

After that woman did such a thing, would the father of Bishop Garrett's half-brother only choose to apologize?
They will surely offer something better as compensation in the future.

However, this is not just a matter of resources.

The time lost and the rights relinquished by Bishop Garrett cannot be recovered.

It's hard for outsiders to compensate... No matter how much they compensate, the person probably won't feel it's enough.

The only way to deal with someone who is too indebted is to make sure that the creditors are unable to demand payment and can only accept discounted compensation.

Antirochus was pleased not only by Bishop Garrett's defeat this time.

Furthermore, his inevitable failures in the future... all of this was caused by Bishop Garrett's biological mother.

Antirochus has finally vomited out all the disgust he's accumulated over the past decade.
