Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 130 Miriam Understood

As Valeera expected, she heard some news. Of course, it was mainly because Alex came to the Territory of Gezar again to test Miriam, who was trying to get some superficial information from Valeera.

Out of respect for Baron Lowry, Miriam never took the shortest route to Castle Gezal, relying on his ability to glide effortlessly through the treetops.

Although he was willing to meet Valera first, no matter what the reason was, it was always better to abide by other people's rules instead of focusing on his own convenience.

You know, if Milian wanted to see Alex as quickly as possible, he could reach the Knights' residence outside the castle in a straight line within three hours.

Moreover, it was not considered that he sneaked in secretly, after all, he slid past the bird's nest... The crown of the soft fragrant wood tree was densely packed with those things.

But except for the first two times when they did it for the convenience of moving and asked Baron Lori for permission in advance, Milian and the other swordsman never did such a borderline thing again.

This doesn't include the two magic professionals who can use tools to fly at low altitudes... When they moved, they used a flying ship.

After all, Leon had inherited his biological father's fortune, so his so-called poverty was just that he couldn't come up with enough gold coins, but he had a lot of good things.

Even though Lowry had a rich pocket due to the rewards from the dimensional space, he was not as good as Leon in some aspects.

Just like that flying ship.

The small boat transformed from Lori's feather amulet can indeed fly, but it is far from a proper flying ship.

The most important gap, of course, is in attack and defense.

Everything Lowry has now is more suitable for helping him get out directly and escape quickly.

Magical artifacts with strong confrontational properties and artifacts that are diligently disguised as the system are rarely given to him... It is conceivable that in the judgment of the artifact, the best thing for Lowry to do when facing the enemy is to run away.

The hint was too obvious, and Lowry himself was speechless.

This is also the reason why the top leaders of Gezaer Territory have always been very friendly to the former members of Tiger Blade. Those who know how to respect others will naturally be respected by others.

Compared to Miriam and the others, the people who have been with Alex for a longer time are not very popular with everyone.

How should I put it… No matter how hard they try to hide their presence, their bureaucratic temperament can still be seen at a glance.

Especially those who came from afar to take care of the eldest grandson at the request of the White Dragon King.

Even though they didn't show it obviously and were polite to everyone, it was easy for smart people to see their arrogance that they were just staying in a small country place temporarily.

Alex, the future king of the ice field, is not as proud as they are.

The reason why both sides have been able to spend so many years in peace is not because everyone understands reason.

Instead, it was Leon who was in charge of them at the beginning, and after Leon left, Lowry took over.

Even though these people felt that they would have to return to the capital sooner or later and there was no need to give face to the northern nobles, they could not afford to offend these two.

Besides, it’s better to offend Leon than to offend Lori.

There is no way. A member of the royal family must be steady as a member of the royal family. No matter how reckless he is, he will naturally confront the nobles secretly according to the unspoken rules.

But Lowry is different. When he wants to obey, he is a baron. When he doesn't want to obey, he is a mage.

Moreover, even if it is the same thing, his reaction may be completely different.

When you feel that someone is moody, you will inevitably choose to avoid dealing with him as much as possible.

And this is what Lowry wants.

He had absolutely no intention of gaining any benefit from Alex.

This actually made those people around Alex, who already knew that Lowry knew everything, very uncomfortable, and they could only keep their distance from him.

Not daring to have any assumptions about Lord Gezar, they would naturally stay away from other people in the Gezar territory.

But that doesn't mean they won't look down on the people of the Gezar Territory.

It just so happens that the people around Lori, except for Mal and the other two who were sent to deal with the border guards, are all extremely sensitive types.

After seeing so much of those people's misery, Charles would naturally have a better impression of Tiger Blade, who could see their existence.

But, only just that, if Miriam could stay away from his sister, Charis would like the swordsman more.

"Charis."

The nesting Charis turned to look at Miriam who had just finished reporting.

"Mr. Miriam, long time no see." Charles nodded politely.

“It’s been a while since I last saw you. I’ve been a bit busy lately.

"What are you looking at?" Miriam took off his hat and smiled. "A pair of beautiful birds immersed in love." Charles replied with a smile, "How happy~ It's the one standing on the branch next to him who was the suitor at the beginning. It's a bit pitiful. I always thought it would succeed!

After all, it had set its sights on the female bird before it entered its breeding season.

Otherwise, it would not be so dejected and even give up this year's nesting season.

I don’t know if it will be able to regain its confidence next year.”

Miriam couldn't help but look up at the loser with very beautiful feathers.

He was quite familiar with the northern redstart, the most common bird in the North, and asked hesitantly, "Why did it fail? I don't think it's worse than the successful male bird."

“I can’t help it. Although it looks good and is good at catching insects, it got distracted when it was flying side by side with the female bird and was stepped on twice by another male bird that was only imitating most of its movements.

You should also know the characteristics of the northern redstart. For the female bird, the up and down chase is the best way to prove the strength of the male bird.

Furthermore, although the victorious male bird built its nest on a maple tree that the Northern Redstart is not used to, its nest is beautiful and large.

The nest of the one next to them was built in the cracks of the rocks according to their old habit. Although it was protected from wind and rain, it did not look good.

As I said, this female bird has no experience, so... she ignored the appearance."

"It will be hard work for it." Miriam was silent for a while before saying, "After all, although the male bird built the nest, if you want the nest to be comfortable enough to raise chicks, it still needs its own efforts.

It is really difficult to lay such a large nest with moss, bark, grass roots and leaves in just a few days."

"So, a smart female bird that knows the ups and downs of life will not choose a nest that has no use other than beauty." Charles raised a hand and looked at the decadent male bird. "By the way, Mr. Miriam, do you know?

The most important reason why the loser was so embarrassed and painful was that it had a good relationship with the one who took advantage of the situation.

I just don’t know whether they are brothers or friends.”

Miriam forced a smile and said, "I can see that. After all, it can stand so close to the nest without being expelled. It must be closely related."

He knew very well that when the Northern Redstarts were building nests, they were at their most vigilant and would display very strong territorial behavior and would not allow foreign birds to get so close.

Of course, Miriam understood more clearly what Charles was implying with these three little birds.

In fact, when he first heard the news, he felt that something was wrong.

Moreover, Yuri, who also heard the news, gave him a very clear hint and asked him to go to the Gezar territory in person to confirm it.

When the word "confirmed" came out, Miriam felt a little disappointed.

But he still couldn't accept the reality.

After all, in Tiger Blade, the person who was the friendliest to Alex and took the most care of him was Miriam.

I don't know which one hurts him more, 'as expected' or 'it turns out you really don't take me seriously'... Miriam, who leaned against the tree at some point, couldn't help but fall into depression.

Charles glanced at him and turned away.

He had never understood as clearly as he did now that it was okay to make friends with people who were not from the same class, but it was basically impossible to be close to them, even as close as brothers.

Otherwise, he would be like Miriam, who felt that he had given his heart to others, but the people he took care of only regarded his actions as a service that they were supposed to be given.

Because Miriam knew Alex's identity...so no matter how close the relationship between Leon and Miriam was, Alex definitely did not put Miriam on the same footing as himself.

In his eyes, Miriam was his cousin's subordinate, the one responsible for taking care of him.

However, in Milian's eyes, Leon is the leader of his adventure team.

Although his identity is a bit special, he is his brother... Judging from the performance of the Tiger Blade group, Leon did not appear as a prince when he first came into contact with them.

He was just a well-educated nobleman who could only make a living on his own. For a child like Mirian who was supposed to be from a knight family, he really wasn't someone he should look up to.

After so many years of getting along, he had long since ignored Leon's identity, so in his eyes, Alex was just Leon's cousin.

Charles suddenly remembered what Lowry said about Alex and Tiger Blade after spending some time with him: “Fortunately, there is Yuri.

Luckily it wasn't my cousin.

No, thanks to my mother for not having many relatives to visit, and thanks to the Montes family for not wanting to get close to me back then.

I don’t want to take care of a cousin like this.”

Some of the words sounded quite confusing, but when Charles saw Miriam's sad back, he suddenly understood.

Perhaps, Lowry discovered very early on that the emotional contributions from both parties were completely unequal.
