Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 1096 That's not how you use your brain
“Mom!” Penelope grabbed her arm and asked anxiously, “This isn’t a bad thing, is it?”

“Of course not.” Alexis couldn’t help but pat her little head. “On the contrary, it’s a very good thing.”

The direct knightly order of Qingfeng Territory is preparing to take over the defense of the Great Cliff.

This is a complete transformation; they've become part of the King's army... This is the only way to become a noble.

How wonderful! "

Penelope was getting anxious: "Is that a good thing for Lowry too?"
This doesn't sound right to me!
Lowry was grumbling and even got angry with Chesca!

Lori truly treated Mikhail and her like her own younger siblings.

Penelope can still recall the shock she felt when she opened her bedroom door.

Upon opening the door, you'll find a small living room of about 20 square meters.

The main color is light blue, with pink and white accents, creating an extremely romantic and ethereal atmosphere.

One side of the reception room is a small study, and the other side is a spell training room.

On the wall opposite the door were tall cabinets, with some ornaments and potted plants arranged in a staggered manner, leaving space for Penelope to place her items.

There are also two hidden doors on the cabinet.

One door leads to her bedroom, and the other is a meditation room.

In the bedroom, in addition to a fully equipped bathroom, there is also a dressing room that is the same size as the bedroom.

The three walls of cabinets were already filled with clothes, including hundreds of specially made garments with the Qingfeng collar alone.

There were even more than twenty specially made magic robes.

The three rotating cabinets in the middle were also filled with jewelry... She never imagined that one day she would be able to describe her jewelry as being filled to the brim.

Most incredibly, the cabinet in the middle was filled with magical jewelry... and several high-level artifacts!

Penelope mingled with girls in Emilia, and none of the perfect rooms she and her companions had ever imagined were as nice as this.

After all, even Queen Louise probably didn't enjoy such a luxurious lifestyle.

At that moment, Penelope instantly understood what it meant to 'treat someone like a brother'.

What could better express a person's love than such an unreserved gift?

Penelope was even more certain of this after hearing that the splendor in Mikhail's room was no less than that of hers.

Regardless of who it was for or from whom it originated, Lowry's love for them was genuine.

Therefore, Penelope was extremely anxious at the thought that Lowry's interests might have been harmed because of her negative influence.

Although she has consistently denied it, Penelope is somewhat aware that what she says might actually help the situation.

It's not that she can make any decisions, but when things are uncertain, her words become the 'last leaf'.

What's most infuriating is that her attempts to deliberately sabotage people are futile.

But she never imagined that just wanting to see the scenery would lead to...

“It’s not a big deal.” Alexis had figured it out. “It’s just that Lowry was too soft-hearted.”

Penelope looked up at her mother with her bright, watery eyes, silently urging her to explain more clearly.

“Mar and Comran, though they don’t make much noise outside, were the first knights’ squires who followed Lowry back then…along with Chesca,” Alex said softly. “Lowry actually valued them a lot.”

Therefore, Lowry definitely couldn't accept the outdated facilities, dilapidated houses, and magic arrays that hadn't been repaired for years on the other side of the great cliff.

She reached out to stop Penelope from asking the question she was about to ask: "The King will not owe these resources."

This is a major national event, and the money comes from the national treasury. He has no reason to do something that harms others and himself.

I know you must have seen a lot of information about His Majesty Leon's extreme poverty at the Church of the Night.

But that was before.

After he becomes king, he will be able to receive a large share of the royal treasury.

The caravans left to him by His Majesty Travis will also continuously generate profits for his private treasury.

He might not be extravagant, but he certainly wouldn't skimp on those repair costs.

What good is it if the full amount is paid?

Alexandra shook her head and smiled: "Do you remember your room?"
Our villa was exquisite, romantic, and luxurious.

"If he could do this for me, and for all of you whom I've never even met, how could Lowry possibly let his trusted followers of so many years live such ordinary lives?"

“He will inevitably have to contribute money and effort to renovate that cliff camp.” Alexis spread her hands. “When Lori and Chesca argue, it’s usually because he’s gone too far again.”

For example, it was originally agreed that the magic array set up for the cliff camp should be of high-level ordinary level.

But Lowry thought it over and over and still felt it wasn't enough; he had to get the highest level.

Or perhaps the houses originally intended for the camp were to be converted into something like the library outside, but Lori thought they were too poor and insisted on making them like our villas.

"All of them, magical materials?" Penelope was startled. Of course, she was also quite surprised when she discovered just how luxurious her villa was.

She had initially thought that only the meditation room and spell training room were so high-end... but she never expected that the building materials of the entire house were extraordinary.

Of course, one could argue that the villa's exterior walls were made of low-end materials, while the materials used in her meditation room were clearly much more advanced.

But... the prayer rooms and the monks' gallery in the Laurel Church are made of the same material as the exterior walls of the villa.

Oh, and the materials used in the central hall where the statue is located have been upgraded.

And this laurel church has been praised by many for its extravagance and wealth!

Some things are best avoided when compared to others.

Penelope lowered her head and thought for a moment before saying, "It's not that Chesca is afraid of spending money, it's just that he doesn't want Mar and Comran to go too far, right?"

Alex nodded in satisfaction: "That's right. Although everyone knows that Lori will definitely fund them, the camp will certainly be much better than other places."

But their understanding of 'a lot' is definitely not the kind Lowry wants.

It was so good that your first reaction wasn't to compete with Mal and his group for territory, but rather to find a way to dismantle it.

Alexis sighed: "Lorry is great in every way, except that sometimes he's a little...too meticulous."

Like those practice items he stuffed into the warehouse.

Each and every item is a finished product that can be sold legitimately.

Lori still couldn't accept it because it was just a tiny bit off... just a tiny bit off from his standard.

Fortunately, he hasn't completely gone mad.

Those magical artifacts that were merely flawed in appearance but already possessed sufficient magical effects, Lori knew to put them in the treasure room, or at most distribute them to his own people, rather than simply throwing them into the storage warehouse.

The willow-leaf bracelets on their wrists are a typical example.

He was definitely planning to do the design himself on the cliff, but halfway through, he felt it was too simple and plain, so he wanted to add some elements.

Chesca knew his temperament and must have been monitoring him closely to stop him in time.

Penelope was startled, probably because Chesca's attitude was too forceful... She had been in Emilia City for a long time and was not yet used to her subordinates confronting their lord so directly.

“Don’t worry, Chesca had no choice but to do this,” Alexandra said with a smile. “Lowry can be willful sometimes, pretending that she didn’t hear or understand.”

So when he had to be stopped, Chesca would make a huge scene, forcing him to admit that he had heard it.

As long as he admits he heard, Lowry won't cause any trouble.

Penelope let out a soft sigh: "So, regardless of whether it's my relationship or not, it hasn't affected Lowry's interests?"

He still had the mind to improve things further, probably because he didn't take that little bit of effort seriously.

"Hmm, it's alright." Alexis patted her shoulder. "Go back to your studies!"
"Lori will really be angry if you don't pay attention in class."

"What did you say? Say it again?"

Lowry, already unhappy about standing on the dirty ground, turned and stared at Mar behind her.

Mar's massive body trembled violently as he tried to hide behind Komran beside him.

Komran, who had been his brother for many years, pushed him out without hesitation.

Mar glared resentfully at his brother, then sidled up to Lori with a servile air: "I'm thinking, there's no need to make things so complicated. What if... someone wants to switch bases with me?"

“You’re not stupid.” Lori glanced at him twice, but finally couldn’t help kicking him a couple of times. “But why do you treat me like an idiot?”
Is this how you use your brain?
Unless Leon is no longer the King of the North, no, unless the royal family of the North is gone, who would dare to switch places with you?
His Majesty Travis has practically deified him; no one would dare to do that!

The disaster on the ice field will certainly happen, but the side of the great cliff will remain safe and sound.

Even if most of Mar and Comran's subordinates are low- to mid-ranking knights, none of them will be able to break through from here.

After all, the border territory leading from the ice plains to the Great Cliff was in the hands of the Ice Noble... and a high priest at that.

Although the Lord of Ice has many flaws, he absolutely keeps his promises.

The Lord of Ice has always kept the promises he made when he gave that dimensional space to Lori.

The disaster that befell the Ice Kingdom was greatly mitigated after the gods brought the Lord of Ice back on track.

Rosalind, under the control of the Goddess of Rain, will inevitably choose not to provoke the Lord of Ice until she is absolutely certain that she can once again encroach upon his divine realm.

The current Ice Age Disaster, while still poised to spread southward—that's its inevitable fate—is significantly weaker.

The North is not in chaos, the Northland is normal, Travis is even preparing to become a god... Anyone with a brain would head south from Vargas.

The northern region is probably just a secondary battlefield.

We will still fight, but not to the point of fighting to the death.

This was the style of the ice fields and the Northlands two hundred years ago, which focused on harassment and confrontation.

If a weakness appears on either side during a confrontation, then take advantage of that weakness.

But a lose-lose situation is absolutely unacceptable.
