Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 271 Can you do me a favor, Lori?
The mage just wanted to save himself.

But Arsalan didn't think that what the mages did back then was wrong.

Even if they once worshipped a certain god, they also received enough benefits from the god.

But at that time, what the mages were fighting for was the right to survive!

Who would let go of those gods who could be killed just for the petty gains in the past?
Therefore, no matter whether those gods have protected humans in the past, it is meaningless. Weakness is the greatest original sin.

The sacrifices and offerings that were once offered voluntarily have now become the blood and sweat of the people.

Of course, this is true.

Humans can hardly even feed themselves! Who would willingly save the meat at their fingertips to give to others, and even do it while kneeling down to do so?

After Arsalan understood what Travis said about the positions of the White Dragon and the gods back then, he understood why the war between the gods was so cruel.

Not even a weak, harmless god was exempt.

Logically speaking, it shouldn't have come to such a complete break.

After all, it is obvious that many gods of faith were created by humans themselves... Especially during the years when the white dragon was wreaking havoc, many small gods really got the opportunity to grow and develop, and were even able to go directly from racial gods to the starry sky and become a real god with a kingdom of God.

If the Lord of the Tower had appeared at that time, he would definitely have become a god in one fell swoop.

But, if this was just a tacit understanding between the gods and the white dragon... then how pitiful must have been the humans and magical creatures who suffered heavy losses back then!

All the struggles, all the pain, watching the fearless and heroic sacrifices of relatives and friends, finally became meaningless illusions.

Even Arsalan, who was always shrewd and indifferent, could not help but shudder when he thought that all this was just the result of the calculations of the gods.

too frightening.

Although Travis often said that true gods would not see the existence of humans in their eyes and were ruthless and heartless, and he himself never believed that gods loved the world, Arsalan, who understood all this, still felt a chill as if cold water was poured over his head.

He even immediately felt a sense of identification with the War of Gods.

Even if the people at that time could not understand it for a while because the situation was too dangerous, how could it be possible that no one could see it afterwards?
There was already deep hatred and sufficient interests involved, so it was not surprising that the war of gods would reach that point.

Arsalan could even understand a little bit why the goddess of darkness did not hate the royal family and the nobles, but hated the wizards even more... The only wizards who could act as go-betweens between white dragons, humans, and other magical creatures were those who found that their way forward was blocked and who had to fight for territory in the starry sky.

They just don't have an excuse to do anything to the mage, but that doesn't mean they don't want to do it.

Will the gods really let go of these humans who stabbed them in the back?
Therefore, Arsalan really didn't understand why those great wizards would choose to be neighbors with the gods in the end.

Of course he knew there must be some unspeakable reason... For example, why there were only a hundred or so of the thousands of extraordinary wizards who participated in the War of Gods back then?

Even if some level 20 archmages choose to go out of the world and adventure into the astral realm which is said to be extremely dangerous and where no one has ever returned alive, then... there are too few of them.

Arsalan didn't want to hang out with that group of wizards and suffer possible plots from the gods, nor did he want to struggle alone and suffer plots from his fellow wizards.

Therefore, Ruth Kania is his only hope.

He didn't believe that Ruth Kania and Travis would stay on earth forever and live such a boring worldly life.

It’s just that in today’s world, there are still many fun things to see and find, which is why they enjoy doing it so much.

Travis now obviously doesn't have the patience he had 10 years ago for those nagging nobles below.

Once you become powerful enough, how could you be willing to play those trivial profit games with these idiots?

His student Lowry is a truly smart person.

From the beginning, I didn't intend to be disturbed by these mundane trivialities.

It’s a pity that Lowry doesn’t know much about the things above the starry sky, otherwise he would be more cautious when doing things.

Arsalan thought that after Lowry reached level 12, he would have to talk to the kid about some related matters.

This will also prevent Lowry from being affected by external affairs while laying the foundation.

This was also the reason why Arsalan had no intention of intervening when Travis and Ruth Kania played a trick on Lori and went to Baron Gezar's territory to have children without informing him at all.

Compared to him who still has to follow Travis carefully, Lowry is much luckier.

If Ruth Kania's children can be kept close and intimate enough, then when Lowry goes to low-stellar orbit, why would he have to worry about the living environment?
Although there are some things that Arsalan only wants to keep in his heart, he is still willing to help his students.

Although, when Travis asked him to teach this child at the beginning, Arsalan was not really willing... Even though he had always been obedient to Travis for his own future, he still had the pride of being a 16th-level archmage. Who would be willing to accept a student who was not personally selected by him?
Fortunately, Lowry is much better than he thought... It's not a matter of talent, Arsalan doesn't really care that much about this.

If he is not willing to accept the child, it would be more appropriate for the child to have poor talent.

If he doesn’t understand after a few days of teaching, you can just let him fend for himself.

Is it possible to let a great wizard like him teach me step by step?
The most troublesome students are those who have good talents but whose personalities and characters are totally not to Arsalan's liking.

It’s okay if you have bad character but a sharp mind.

It's okay to have people with bad character and personality... Even if he cleans them up directly, Travis will not be dissatisfied.

What Arsalan fears most is people who have good character but are stubborn.

To teach such people, one needs a great master who has excellent personal qualities.

This is definitely not something that can be taught by someone like Arsalan, who is full of selfish thoughts and evil intentions.

Fortunately, Lowry is a real little gem: he has good character, a sharp mind, good looks, and can get along well with Bailong.

Even if Arsalan looked for one himself, he wouldn't be able to find such a suitable student.

Therefore, during this period of time, Arsalan has been behaving particularly law-abidingly, honestly and reliably in front of Travis... It would be okay if it was just a coincidence, but if he was chosen on purpose, then Travis would be a really scary person.

He would never have any evil thoughts in front of such a person!

At the same time, Ruth Kania, sitting on her jeweled bed, also made the most affectionate call: "Lori~ my dear friend, can you help me?"

"Yours, or Travis's?" Lori replied sharply.

"Ah~ My friend, you really like to treat Travis and me separately even more than Bolanos does." Ruth Kania said with great emotion, completely ignoring the incredible look of Bolanos, who was holding the crystal plate carefully at the head of the bed and coaxing his poor children who had just experienced a battle between their parents.

After all, if he said the same words, it would only lead to another bigger war.

Lori curled her lips: "Because when you schemed against me, it was all for the food, drinks, and entertainment.

Travis... wants me to work hard.

I dare not agree to his words casually."

Ruth Kania tilted her head and thought for a moment, then suddenly said with feeling: “You think what I want is unimportant because you have it in your hands, and a lot of it.

If what I want is the only one left that you also need, I guess you won’t think so. "

"It seems that what His Majesty Travis wants me to do is quite troublesome! Ruth Kania." Lori was not polite at all.

"Ah...you guys with brains, why are you so difficult to deal with!" Ruth Kania stomped her left hind foot in a defensive manner.

"You stepped on a piece of ice crystal stone." Lori reminded lightly.

Ruth Kania quickly raised her left hind paw and shoved her big head under her feet… and the result of using too much force was that she fell directly onto the bed.

"It's a very small piece!" Bolanios quickly put down the crystal plate and moved closer to Ruscania, "I'll give it to you!"

It was not until he put a fist-sized ice crystal stone into the bed that Luskanea came to her senses... If Lori had not seen it with his own eyes, he would have thought that what Luskanea had crushed was a black sapphire the size of a fingernail that was worth 5000 gold coins?

An ice crystal stone the size of a fist is only 500 gold!
Lowry shook his head helplessly.

"So, Lori, my friend, can you help me?" Ruth Kania, who had recovered from her shock, spoke again.

The reason why Lowry can become friends with Ruth Kania is that although she is greedy, she is restrained and will not try to make up for her mistakes with others.

Even if Bolanios hadn't rushed over and offered to pay just now, Luscania would only resent herself.

Moreover, as long as the loss is compensated, Luscania will immediately regain her spirits... She is completely different from some legendary dragons who only think about the one they lost.

Looking at his friend like this, Lowry couldn't help laughing: "Tell me what it is first, and then I'll think about it."

Ruth Kania simply responded, “Travis asked me to ask you.

Would Pat really choose to disobey the orders of the Lord of the Tower just to avoid kneeling before Kyle Montes?
If the person who gave the order was Lady Yagris, would she not go either?"

Lori blinked in confusion…Isn’t that the Lord of Ice?
