Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 288: Incomprehensible Sister-Brother Relationship

Lowry just didn't expect that after completely delegating power to Chesca, his butler's first reaction was to trick his younger brother.

She obviously cares about and loves Taylor so much that when Taylor was in his breakthrough period, she even paid out of her own pocket to buy some special nutritional supplements for her brother.

Anything that has something to do with vitality and energy must be worth a lot of money.

Even if it is the kind that can be settled with gold coins, one copy is enough to scare away ordinary knights.

Even for Chesca, who is wealthy, he would have to spend a whole year's salary to buy a set of nutritional supplements that would be enough to meet Taylor's advanced energy needs.

This is the salary of the chief steward of Baron Gezar, who is famous for his generous treatment!
Taylor's salary was certainly not low, but with his erratic personality, it was difficult for him to save money... Weapons and horse harnesses were placed everywhere in his garden villa.

The reason why they were not interested in armor was not only because the standard magic armor they wore was already the limit of what knights below high level could reach, but also because there were several sets of exquisite armor full of magical power in Lori's magic item warehouse.

These are all good things for Lowry to practice with when he is making exclusive personal equipment for his mother.

Of course Taylor didn't want these sets, that was Cheska's goal.

But Lowry has promised that whoever among them reaches level 10 first, he will make a set specially tailored for him.

Of course, it has to be something that is quite specialized.

Having seen such perfect things, how could I possibly want something old and unchanged with only different patterns?

Lowry is not an ordinary armorer. He has his own unique sense of beauty, and this sense of beauty, in the eyes of young Taylor, is simply the most wonderful dream.

The otaku's second-year soul can really resonate with these young people.

But Taylor was still very diligent in collecting weapons.

After all, in this world where weapons are mainly made by forging, even standard weapons will have different patterns on each one.

Although Lowry totally didn't understand Taylor's madness of naming weapons that looked almost the same, but... as a otaku, he could still empathize with this hobby.

As a fellow knight, Chesca understands the hobby of collecting weapons, but she disagrees with Taylor's view that a slight difference is "new and beautiful."

Therefore, she usually doesn't support Taylor, and even makes sarcastic remarks to him when Taylor is stuffing gold coins into his piggy bank every month... Taylor has not forgotten that he needs a lot of energy to advance to the knight level.

But even if he knew, he would just follow the tradition...one set of meals before promotion and another set of meals after promotion.

In fact, considering that Lord Lowry would provide them with three special energy-rich meals during that period, Taylor's advancement would not be a problem.

However, as an older sister, Cheska still paid for an extra portion for her younger brother out of her own pocket.

Taylor himself knew why he got to eat so many good things... The lord might subsidize him a little in private, but on the surface he was absolutely fair, and anything he could give out publicly must have been a gift from his own sister.

Although Lowry couldn't interfere too much in such matters, he would ask a chef in the castle who had been confirmed to be trustworthy and had a certain professional level to help prepare these nutritional products.

Although most of them just need to be cooked, but...the heat is really important.

A proper chef at least knows when each ingredient is at its perfect state.

For people like Taylor who only know how to stew food into a paste, the energy in the food will probably be lost by at least 20%.

As for eating it raw directly...it would be good if it could achieve about 60% of the effect.

Sometimes, what you need is the reaction when several energy plants are boiled together!
These are the experiences summarized by various knights over tens of thousands of years. Even though Lori has some unique magical plants that come with his half-plane, he doesn't have the courage to think that he can change any formula.

Even the simplest basic combination that is similar to the three primary colors.

Of course, Lori would have no problem following the formula to take out plants of the same proportion with higher purity and stronger energy storage. However, even if they were plants of the same family, as long as they were not of the same species, even if they had bursting energy, they would be useless when combined together.

After trying a few times, Lowry realized that as a little wizard who was not even at level 16, how could he be qualified to study the information passed down from the top alchemy masters above level 20?

Indeed, these alchemy masters will consider the so-called cost-effectiveness issue, but don’t forget that the reason why they worked so hard for the development of knights was to fight the white dragon in the first place.

Moreover, at that time, it was a great cooperation of the whole world, and the Church of the Earth was naturally no exception.

As long as it is available, they will do their best to provide it.

So, maybe there might be a more secret and better mix hidden in some star fortress, but this basic formula circulating throughout the world is definitely not something that someone like Lori, who only has a superficial understanding of it, can figure out.

The magic plant in Lori's hand is, at best, a rare treasure, but it is definitely not something that has never appeared before. One plant can be equivalent to a whole set of magic medicine... After all, the physical condition of the user must also be considered.

That kind of good stuff that would make a dragon dizzy after eating it, is being fed to low- and middle-level knights? Is it to send them off first?

Lowry quickly gave up his inexplicable fantasies that came from a time traveler, and never interfered in this regard again. He was not the son of the earth who knew everything about the characteristics of plants. Since he only knew a little about everything, it was better to be honest.

But the advanced basic food he provided to Taylor and the others were all good things from his demiplane.

Especially those herbs that can help knights clean up the sediment in their bodies... well, they are really better than feeding two pounds of croton seeds.

Lori had always known that Cheska was not willing to follow the military route, nor did she wish to use the special training methods that the Tollers had found, so she had been saving money.

Of course Taylor wouldn't think too much about it and would just be happy that he could save a lot of money.

But after Valera and Charles chose the more difficult path of swordsmanship, Chesca obviously felt a shadow in his heart.

The reason why career advancement, especially the level 10, stops so many people is not just because of the physical difficulties to overcome.

This is definitely not something you can get over by just suppressing the discomfort in your heart.

Sometimes Lowry felt that if he really used words like "it's not worth it" or even "spending their money is the biggest revenge on them" to persuade Cheska to give up the resentment and gloom in his heart, it would be as immoral as persuading a depressed patient to "be happier."

Is that something that can be achieved just by thinking about it?
So, he could only let Cheska choose this difficult path.

Maybe Chesca will complete the level 10 advancement much slower than expected, but at least she can live comfortably.

Lowry, it is impossible for you to interfere too much with Chesca in such an important life event... He doesn't need to fight against the power of gods or resist the white dragon's attack, right?
It was precisely because of Cheska's heart knot that Lowry was surprised to see Cheska spend so much money just to make Taylor's advancement more perfect.

If Taylor needed these things urgently and Chesca helped, Lowry probably wouldn't be so scared.

Maybe, this is what true brotherhood is?
Lori, who has no feelings about such things in his past and present lives, can only believe in Cheska's sincere love for his brother.

However, just now, when Cheska, who had just taken full control of the territory, made his first choice, was to trick his own brother.

Lori thought that she should not speculate about a sister's feelings towards her brother.

This was not an area he could get involved in; it was even more difficult to understand than the formulas of magic potions.

Rather than this, he should consider how to welcome his future nephew... No, it should be two nephews and a niece!
Yes, one month before the dragon eggs are about to hatch, the dragon chicks finally determine their gender.

That's what Ruth Kania said, but Lowry didn't agree.

After all, he had recently started to receive various inherited knowledge, but nothing related to these.

It can't be that this knowledge will only be passed on to female dragons, right?

Also, the dragon books he had read before didn't seem to contain similar content.

Lowry, really, was a little skeptical.

However, this had nothing to do with him, so Lowry decided not to delve too deeply into it.

Although Lowry has postponed his future love life, just like the otaku in the past who was single but never gave up the possibility that one day he might hold hands with a cute and charming girl who was willing to spend the rest of his life with him, Lowry never feels that he will be alone for the rest of his life.

He just doesn't want to compromise and it's not easy for him to open his heart.

But it doesn't mean he doesn't want love.

How could it be possible that the former otaku could not find a girlfriend when he was able to settle down in a big city and live a carefree life through his own efforts?

He just didn't want to compromise.

Perhaps it was because she had been full of fantasies about love since she was a child, hoping that there would be someone who would truly see only her as a person and only love her as a person, so Lori had been waiting.

However, he was such a person that he didn’t dare to talk about love when he didn’t have the ability, and when he had the ability, no one mentioned love anymore.

Therefore, Lowry can only wait silently with regret and lingering expectations.

He knew that it might be because he himself lacked love since childhood that he longed for love so much.

But, why not?
Even though he already has the true love of his family in this world, Lowry still maintains the desire to wait.

He still really wanted to know what it felt like to be pounding on someone's heart.

However, so far, the object of Lowry's fantasy is still people.
