Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 326 Drunk Charles
With Valeira's encouragement, Charles was convinced that working hard for his future and trying to socialize was the right choice.

But he would occasionally doubt himself if he was too greedy because of his parents' disdain.

Even though Baron Lowry assigned him tasks because he was impressed by his ability to communicate and bend and stretch, Charles still occasionally lacked confidence.

Therefore, Charles knew very well that the reason why he worked so hard but still could not enter the intermediate level was because his willpower was flawed.

Sister Valera would never be like him.

That is the iron will to rush forward and not stop even if it passes by a mountain of gold.

Naturally, she would not look back at the mud that once trapped her feet.

Charles sat quietly in the corner, silently thinking about the past.

He looked up at the busy Lowry and seemed to want to say something but stopped himself several times.

Lori, who had already noticed Charles's gaze, took out a feather and put it in the folder, then looked up at him: "What do you want to ask?
Don't worry about disturbing me, I already know some things. "

Charles hesitated for a moment, but still asked firmly: "Baron, you seem to have never doubted that I would do something that would harm your interests for my own desires."

Lori laughed: "Why would you ask such a stupid question.

Didn't you already know that I have eyes all over the territory?
Your every move is under my eyes. If you change, how could I not notice it?
Besides, the biggest responsibility for your conspiracy lies with me."

Charles was stunned for a moment: "How can it be..."

Lori raised a hand and waved it over his chest: “I trusted my birds too much.

They forget that, although they are very good at observing the external situation and can sense certain magical fluctuations, they can be deceived by secret spells that are too far beyond their level.

In Qingfeng Valley, when you communicate with the caravan visitors from the outside world, there will definitely be several birds above level 8 to protect and monitor you.

Especially those who come for the first time, those who are level 10 will go.

So, Charles, you don't need to feel that you have done anything wrong. You certainly can't make a sneak attack that those little birds can't detect."

Lori slapped the folder and said unhappily, "We are just a barony here, and we shouldn't be involved in such a high-level confrontation.

This is all thanks to His Majesty the King.

Alex has brought us so much trouble!"

He raised his chin and said to Charles with a serious face: "Don't think about the past, Charles!

If I really want to get to the bottom of this, should I go find my mother who chose this territory in the first place?

After all, Leon's adventure group had existed in this barony earlier than hers, and those hidden dangers were inherent to this territory.

But for her at that time, this place was her best choice.

Although fate may disgust you from time to time, you have to respect it.

Then, either defeat him or accept him.

Don’t hold yourself back because of the past that cannot be changed.”

Charles lowered his eyes and suddenly laughed a few times.

He looked at his Lord Baron seriously: "You seem to have never thought that I am a person with too many ambitions and desires."

Lori looked at him in confusion: “What are you thinking about?
What an excellent quality it is to strive to make your life better!
You didn't climb up by stepping on other people's blood and tears. You paid with your own time and energy. What's the problem with that?"

Charles looked directly at Lori with tears in his eyes. "Even if I have to beg and kowtow to others in order to gain some benefits, is that okay?"

Lori frowned and said with a look of disapproval: “When you ask someone to do something for you, you naturally have to act like you’re asking for help.

Even if you just want to make money.

Who told you this was wrong?

Your original social circle consisted of children of aristocrats, all of whom had higher status than you. You just behaved a little humbly, but you were still recognized by them, and no one treated you as a follower... How rare is that!

Charles, as a person of the same status as those guys, I can tell you more clearly that their attitude towards you is that they recognize your abilities and may arrange for you to do something, but it can all be regarded as an exchange of interests.

If you are really a follower, no one will help you in your career, nor will they introduce you to their social circle. They will only give you money.

I don’t know who it is... Never mind, I can actually guess it.

But you can think about it, Pat.

Her social circle has never been in line with her status and position, but some people think that she doesn't deserve it. Did she get to the top by flattering others?
Even without my mother's support, Pat is still known to be excellent.

Why do you think you can’t do it?”

This has nothing to do with Charles's talent. After all, he is a regular apprentice.

Charles was not ambitious enough to climb up the social ladder like the earl's descendant by virtue of his status as the heir to his manor. In his social circle, the most powerful person was the baron's second son, who was at most a little more talented, but that was all.

Lowry has always admired his style!

Really.

If it were him, he really wouldn't be able to thrive among these noble children with different personalities and good and bad tempers.

With Lowry's temper that can't stand any bad things, he will definitely make a scene wherever he goes. He can only live in the world he has carefully selected, so he really admires those sensible people who can speak to people in a human way and to ghosts in a ghost way, and both people and ghosts think he is very good.

Lori fished out two glasses of wine from his own half plane and handed one to Charles: "Have a drink and forget about the past!

They do that out of their own selfish motives, so they don't want you to have a chance to show off.

I don’t know why you keep lying to yourself and keeping those nonsense in your heart, but...from now on, just forget it!

Whatever was good or bad, was reduced to ashes in that fire.

Don’t think about it anymore.”

Bending over to take the glass, Charles took a deep breath and said, "Yes, Baron."

Then he swallowed it in one gulp.

Lowry held the wine glass and stared at Charles blankly.

In order to allow Charles to express his inner distress, he took a Barbara cocktail.

The recipe for this drink is simple: vodka + cream cocoa + whipping cream + ice cubes.

Of course there are other strong liquors in Lori's demiplane, but he wants to have a drink with us!

So, he chose the sweet and spicy flavor that he preferred.

Of course, normally, as a wizard, he wouldn't drink this stuff. The most he usually drinks is Baileys with strawberry jam and yogurt.

Lowry slowly put down his glass.

After understanding what was troubling Charles, he really wanted to have a drink with him out of sympathy.

But...Lori stared at Charles who was already slumped on the sofa...His life was still better than this kid's, so there was no need for him to risk his life to accompany him.

He stood up, silently put the glass of liquor into the wine cabinet in the study, then slowly returned to the desk and began to look through the documents again.

By the way, I reminded myself: guys who come out of the mechanical realm don’t know what exaggeration and adjectives are.

This drink perfectly lived up to what the maker boasted about: highly pure, impurity-free, smooth-tasting vodka that brings a fiery stimulation.

Of course, the reason why it is called a blazing flame is because the alcohol content of this wine can reach 95 degrees.

However, the drink they usually drink is also diluted, with a maximum alcohol content of only 60 degrees.

It just makes a loud sound.

However, no matter how smart a machine is, it is still a machine. The remaining spirit of the artifact must have believed it and actually used the raw juice to make a cocktail.

Fortunately, Charles helped him to deal with this landmine.

Lori exhaled carefully, beckoned for a blanket and covered Charles with it... He had to show his gratitude somehow! -
A burst of quick and firm footsteps was heard, and the slightly open study door was knocked twice.

"Baron!" Chesca pushed the door open and was immediately stunned. His expression changed rapidly. "What happened to Charles?"

"Too drunk."

"what?"

Sensing Chesca's rising anger, Lori quickly explained, "I saw that he was in a bad mood, so I handed him a glass of wine.

Unexpectedly, it was so strong that Charles fell asleep right away. "

After making sure that Charis wasn't drinking in front of Lori, Chesca's expression softened a little.

Then she suddenly realized: "Whiskey...Charis can drink ten glasses.

Baron, what kind of wine is this that is so strong?

She glanced at the sweet wine on Lori's table and quickly turned her eyes away: what their baron was drinking was not wine at all, it was called chocolate with liquor.

Charles definitely didn't get drunk from this stuff, it would only make him vomit... he was too full.

"The crystal square cup in the wine cabinet." Lori saw Chesca's look and said, "You can try it, too."

"I can't even drink as much as Charles!" Chesca shook her head quickly, "You can let Taylor try."

"You're such a good sister." Lori nodded appreciatively.

Chesca smiled sweetly, "Taylor deserves it."

I guess these two had another fight.

Cheska glanced at Charis again and brought the topic back to the right track: “Baron, Valeera, Mal, and Komlan, all have no problems now… They all took the test for an hour and there were no logical errors.

Among the few of us, Charles was probably the only one who fell into the trap.

I have already warned others that if they suddenly feel uneasy in the next two days and find that some of their previous actions are now inappropriate, please contact me immediately using Feather. "

Lori nodded: "Although the other party is bullying the weak, it's not that small. You just need to pay attention to it and don't be too nervous."
