Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 122: The Hook for Lowry

Chesca soon felt the feather pendant on her ear getting slightly warm.

Lori's instructions were clear and concise: the main target was not to attack us, try to avoid being dragged into the water, stay away from Alex, An Ye and Da Di might be fishing.

Lori thought about it for a long time and still felt that there was something wrong with Ian's behavior.

I guess that high-level Dark Moon still underestimated him.

After all, Lowry just celebrated his 16th birthday, and it was spent quietly due to various circumstances.

Apart from his mother Yagris and teacher Arsalan who rushed over overnight, and those close subordinates in the territory, Lori did not invite anyone to his coming-of-age dinner.

He had always been relatively obedient to the rules of the nobility, but on the day he came of age again, he chose to be willful for once.

After all, the previous time, although it was a little later when he was 18 years old, the result was a so-called adult communication, but in fact it was a heart-wrenching abandonment for him.

Even though Lowry knew from a young age that he would be kicked out of this family sooner or later, he never expected it would happen so early.

I can't even let him deceive himself in the ivory tower until the last day.

But what could he say? The expensive tuition fees of the art college and the not-so-low monthly living expenses had already been deposited into his bank account in advance.

Lowry, who has been managing himself for a year as a sophomore, can't say that he doesn't know how to live or whether he can survive... Because he knows his final outcome, he takes care of his life seriously and does not encounter various setbacks in his college life due to his ignorance in the first year. The final result, however, became an excuse for his parents to give up on him.

Because that year, his eldest brother was preparing to get married and have children, and his parents thought that their energy was limited, so they had no choice but to let Lowry, who was already able to take care of himself, live the life of an adult.

You’re already so old, you can’t compete with your unborn nephew, right?
You see, they actually know very well that throwing an 18-year-old kid into society like this is not the right thing to do.

But in the eyes of your parents and that brother, they have raised you to this age, paid for your expensive tuition, and don’t require you to give much in return to the family... What are you still fussing about?
Lowry didn't bother with them and left home quietly the next day.

From then on, whenever he entered the place that could only be called a 'house', he would be a guest bringing gifts, even if they were his biological parents.

So, Lowry is really adapted to the noble rules of the fantasy world.

But he also really, really cherishes his dear mother who puts him first.

This time, on his coming-of-age day, Lori just wanted to spend it in the company of his mother and with the blessings of people he recognized.

Rather than a grand, hypocritical celebration.

If he had not become a mage, Lowry probably would not have dared to be so willful.

But he is.

A wizard, even if he becomes a lord, does not need to please everyone like other noble lords.

Of course, they can do that if they want.

But Lowry had never seen any great wizard do anything that would affect his own future.

He is only at the third ring, and he has to spend most of the month in the study and alchemy laboratory!
If you have time, you might as well read a few more books, which are the ideas that a magician would have.

Lowry has always had doubts about his IQ, but has never doubted his personality... In terms of lifestyle alone, he is a standard wizard.

So, of course, he held himself to the standards of a future great wizard.

My abilities are not enough yet, but I can learn to have a good temper first.

After all, no one on the northern border could criticize him for his inappropriate behavior.

Except for Lady Yagris.

But this lady with the highest status in the North would never stop Lowry's actions just because his reasons were reasonable... as long as they made sense.

So, on this day, Lori, who officially became Lord Gezaar and leader of the Knights of the Living Feather Light, finally satisfied the crying self hidden in his heart and had a satisfying coming-of-age ceremony surrounded by love.

Although his ears were itchy that day.

However, considering that they had to work overtime on his extraordinary Knights' Order document just to silence the constant alarm sounds from the control center of the Noble Office... Although they had been preparing for this for eight years, the problem could only be solved on this day.

Even if the central magic circle received the documents that had been submitted in advance, there was no connection between the review area and the submission area. Even most of the old guys who had worked in the noble office for decades didn't quite know who was in charge of the review area, and they could only roughly estimate where it was located. Therefore, they didn't dare to guarantee that the answers they had prepared for so many years could fool the review magic circle.

However, Lowry felt that this matter would at most keep them busy and would not be too troublesome.

After all, although no one knows who is responsible for managing the review array, and sometimes there will be people who take revenge on each other, these guys who must be secret members of the royal family will not cause trouble when it comes to matters related to Lori. If the review array's more mechanical logic is allowed to ask questions automatically, the eight years of preparation by the Noble Office will be enough.

However, this incident must have convinced everyone that the relationship between Lowry and the White Dragon King was very close.

But does Lowry still need to care about this?
His respected teacher, Alsalan, was one of the true core members of the royal family. The reason why Lowry felt that the overly secretive communication in the castle restaurant was not really an accident, but that the Dark Moon named Ian looked down on him and made such a seductive act, was also closely related to Alsalan.

Ianse and Suryani's conversation sounded mysterious, and they even carefully put an isolation ring on their table.

But, who would talk about truly secret things in someone else's territory?
Using spells sometimes cannot avoid the floor under your feet, and there are some small things hidden in the table under your hands that can leave sounds.

If it was a young boy like Taylor, he might think that magic can solve all problems, but Ian and Suryani are high-level Dark Moons!
No matter how careless you are, it is impossible for you to say something you shouldn't say outside.

As a joke, they didn't say a single word in the hotel where they were protected by layers of security.

It turned out that this happened while we were having dinner.

Regardless of whether they saw through Chesca's little trick or not, the two of them took advantage of it without hesitation.

Lori even suspected that the reason they suddenly set up an isolation array for themselves was to attract the attention of some eyes that must be in the castle restaurant.

If their unexpected entry was really an accident, then their conversation might be a bit of an 'unexpected surprise'.

Wouldn't it be better if it wasn't an accident?

Don’t waste the opportunities that others bring to you.

The most fundamental reason why Lowry was so sure was that he had almost finished reading all the royal collections over the years.

In addition to learning spells every day, especially after reading the spell skill books that gave him a splitting headache, reading those historical books and royal biography scrolls that Lowry had found obscure and difficult in the past was actually a way to rest.

Well... although he always refused to admit that his IQ increased several times after each reincarnation, he had actually admitted this silently.

He was not the kind of child who didn't study seriously.

After all, he knew very well that how much he could study and whether he could go to university would really determine his fate.

But if you can get into a decent high school through diligence and hard work in junior high school, there is no hope of going to college.

At least you have to pass math, physics and chemistry, right?
To be honest, the only subject he had learned well since he was a child was geometry.

Algebra was his nightmare.

No one could understand how panicked Lowry was when he only got 150 points out of 45 on the algebra test.

At that time, he really felt that he was finished.

His family just doesn't value other sons, not because they have no money, but they can't provide all sons with the same treatment as the eldest son...a fully paid house in the inner ring of a first-tier city, a car worth hundreds of thousands, even if they kill the old couple, they can't come up with a second one.

But giving up doesn’t mean they will be mean to their other children.

So, Lowry has lived a pretty good life since he was a child, and has never suffered any hardship other than studying.

Lowry didn't think that he, who was lazy, ignorant and obviously a little autistic, could endure the hardship of working.

If he were a heartless child, perhaps he wouldn't be so painful.

Many children with the same status as Lowry can leave home very freely and never look back.

Unlike Lowry, who is sensitive and twisted, even if he can figure out everything, he still can't help but think about it over and over again.

Why is he the one who is not loved?
Perhaps, this repetitive feeling of unwillingness had permeated Lowry's soul ever since he and his older brother made the same request but one was satisfied while the other was reprimanded.

Fortunately, painting saved his life and made him realize that God still left him a window.

This is also the reason why Lowry did not completely give up painting like some of his classmates even though he knew he was not talented.

It was the only time in his life that he felt that something, however little, was his.

Lowry lived his whole life in such a twisted way.

So, even after becoming Lori Montez, he's still as twisted as ever.

During the period when he suffered an unexpected blow from becoming a wizard, in order to prevent himself from saying anything he shouldn't, Lowry picked up a book.

Just as Mrs. Yagris said, Lowry used to read books like flipping through them. He seemed to have learned a lot, but in fact he knew nothing.

There is absolutely no way it can be associated with the profession of scholar.

He only thought about adding all those books to the library of the virtual castle, but he never read them carefully himself.
