Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 503 Everyone shows off their magical powers

Valera and Ortiz looked at each other calmly.

Baron Watson is indeed known to be insidious and vicious.

After confirming that the new Earl of Hamilton was very interested in showing off his power, he immediately rushed over with his family.

Now, Earl Ezra himself has to be careful not to let any child of the Watson family die inexplicably before or after his succession ceremony.

The purpose of showing one's authority is to let others understand his majesty, so that they will listen to him and work with him in the future, instead of treating him as a killer and keeping a distance from him.

Of course, Ezra also understood Watson's little thoughts...that guy had no intention of hiding, so he borrowed Miriam's house to accommodate Valera and her group.

It’s not that the guesthouse is really not suitable for Valeera and the others to live in.

Although it was called a reception hall, it was actually a residential area that could accommodate all the nobles in the North. There were many small buildings scattered inside, and evergreen trees were used as partitions.

There used to be such a place in Montes Castle, how could Valera and Ortiz not know about it!

But Earl Ezra would never want to have Valeera by his side to uphold justice at any time when he has to deal with the troubles brought to him by Watson.

It is said that a strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake, but... when a local snake is bitten by another snake by the tail, or even by the seven inches, the strong dragon will be in big trouble.

There was no way Count Ezra would allow Valeera and Watson to get together.

As for the arrival of Knight Ortiz, he really didn't expect it.

Fabrice has been hiding behind Qingfeng Territory all these years, and often only sends Montes, who has the right identity but can't say much, to act as a yes-man.

Basically, I only say what someone in Qingfengling said, and that’s my opinion.

This is really the most formal response since Fabrice officially took over the Montes Territory!
But considering that Qingfeng brought Valeira, this seems understandable.

On the contrary, young people are not suitable to get along with Valeera, the former first pearl of the North.

Ever since she and Micro have completely merged into one, Valeera's beauty has become more fresh and natural.

There aren't many aristocratic women with this kind of temperament, but Valeera was used to presenting herself as a lady... The occasional flash of contradictory temperament can easily make people indulge in it.

Miriam was only one of the more famous of her suitors.

An experienced older person like Ortiz can control himself and not want to possess the beautiful scenery.

But young people, especially those with good abilities and talents, can easily think that since I’m so good, maybe she will fall for me?

Miriam is a swordsman, and even though his rank is not low, many people would not take him seriously... Swordsmen themselves are popular in aristocratic families, but no one wants to marry them and have children.

The reason why Valeera has always been nice to Miriam is because this swordsman started pursuing her before she revealed her natural harmony talent.

At that time, she was also a famous beauty, and the power she held was no less than it is now.

However, compared to the endless stream of suitors now, there weren't that many back then... and most of them just wanted to play love games with her.

Boys and girls who are both talented and good-looking can cross classes and enter the ranks of the nobility, but swordsmen who lack talent and rely entirely on hard work to carve out their own path in life find it difficult to be accepted by a proper aristocratic family.

However, the determined swordsmen had no such intention.

Their crazy training almost pushed themselves to the brink of death, and it was never for the purpose of "marrying into a wealthy family."

However, even though everyone knows that swordsmen are strong and respectable people, people still look at them differently because of their talents.

If Mirian, who is pursuing Valeera, is a great knight of the same level, who would consider whether he is worthy of her, there would probably be many more people who would pursue her.

Unfortunately, there are always people who regard bloodline and talent as capital, and think that their existence is worth this price.

Of course, with Valeera's strength and background, no one would force her... But for a smart girl, an overconfident and narcissistic suitor would only make her annoyed.

But she couldn't really kill someone just because the other person wanted to pursue her... Fortunately, there was still Charles in Qingfeng Valley.

However, when sending people to Qingfeng Territory for exchanges, more intelligent lords would try to arrange some more stable male officials, or simply send female nobles with more open minds.

Although there is no problem in communicating many things with Charles, it would be better if we could get confirmation from Valera.

After all, their purpose in coming to Qingfeng Territory was not to deal with the brother and sister from Qingfeng Valley...If they were rejected by Valeira and had to negotiate with Charles, then the result of their efforts to persuade Charles would only be a chance to talk to Valeira.

No one is interested in going through five levels and defeating six generals, so one less level is a good thing.

The Montes family is even more concerned about this aspect because of what happened in the past.

Knight Ortiz definitely doesn't have this problem because he is face-blind.

It can't be said that he is truly face-blind, but because he has used his skills to observe the world for many years, when he looks at people, he first senses the energy of their blood, and has gradually lost his sense of people's appearance.

He knew that Valeera was a beauty, but Ortiz was more concerned about the little pets that Valeera brought with her, which looked small but actually had extremely strong life energy.

Miriam's house was indeed a good place to accommodate both groups.

Although he was not an ascetic swordsman, he did not care much about his daily life and did not like to have many servants.

Therefore, most of his house consisted of basic facilities that hadn't been used much, and some rooms hadn't even been activated. Only the top floor, where the master bedroom was located, showed any signs of life, but since they couldn't possibly live there, Valeera directly ordered Bowen to completely seal off the top floor and let him take the key.

Without any discussion, Ortiz and Valera quickly divided the three lower floors into two parts with the main staircase in the middle, and each chose to live on one side.

Although this will force people from both sides to use the same staircase, the most important thing when you are resting is to have someone to sleep with under your head.

After all, there is no hatred, and the friendly period between the bosses of both sides can obviously last for a long time.

Valeera walked into her room on the third floor and silently opened the window.

She and Ortiz didn't actually bring many people with them, so they were the only two living on the third floor.

Although Miriam's house is relatively simple, it still covers a large area.

She looked up.

There is a small forest outside the window.

On the other side of the forest is Hamilton Castle, and you can even see human figures appearing and disappearing in the open windows of the castle's side building.

Although it seems that the area where Milian lives is not in the main urban area near the castle, in fact, he is the closest to the castle.

After all, Miriam didn't need to start from the main gate and then make a big detour to get to the main gate of the castle.

Just slide over the top of the trees, or even jump directly into the castle from the treetops.

Leon had really considered starting a family in this earldom, so even though Miriam and the others basically lived in the castle, he still arranged suitable homes for his younger brothers.

Except for Yuri, the younger brothers were basically arranged on the left and right sides of the castle.

Miriam and the bard naturally lived in the nearest place.

As for Yuri, perhaps considering that he had to work in the castle every day, he specially arranged his house behind the government departments in front of the castle.

In fact, there is only a moat between them and the castle, but they did not go against the tradition of the nobility and lived directly on the street in front of the castle.

If Yuri didn't want to go to work in the castle, the front door would lead to the back door of the territory's government center.

It ensures that he can walk from home to work in just 5 minutes.

Across the street from the government center are the major shops directly under the Earl of Hamilton.

Walking into the alley between the shops, you will find the reception, or rather the guest room.

After the area where government affairs are concentrated, there is a residential area separated by a cross street.

Most of the shops over there belong to the various minor nobles in Hamilton County.

Although she didn't see it with her own eyes, Valeera was very clear about it.

This is the standard construction method for most noble lord cities in the Northern Kingdom.

She leaned against the window, frowned and thought for a while, then pointed her finger at the windowsill.

A thin vine slid down from her wrist and then quickly grew larger.

Valeera took out a beautiful ceramic flowerpot and poured some nutrient potion into it.

The vine shook itself, and dozens of suction-cup-like filaments emerged that pierced into the flowerpot. It began to divide and grow continuously, and soon covered the entire outer wall.

After feeling the data fed back by the vine disguised as ivy, Valeera nodded with satisfaction.

Still, it's more reassuring.

Ortiz also pushed open the window.

However, there were no circular windows like the ones next to him on his side, after all, it faced a bustling commercial street.

But the rear window faces a beautiful little garden.

There is also a fountain in the garden which does not freeze even in this weather.

It's normal for nobles to have a water source that never freezes in their manors, but to make such a beautiful fountain... Well, the lady holding the pitcher seems a little familiar.

Ortiz couldn't help but tilt his head to look, and then he saw the creeper that was only occupying its half of the territory.

He looked down at his unremarkable half of the exterior wall and scratched his hair helplessly.

Fabrice only told him to follow Valeira...but how could he follow?

Ortiz shook his head, shooing away the sudden absurdity that had arisen in his mind, and simply pulled out a bronze plate.

He took a deep breath, then grasped the handle of the copper plate with both hands and began to mobilize the energy in the knight's core, pouring it into it frantically until the copper plate vaguely revealed the building.
