Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 512: The Disgusting Uninvited Guest

"Countess Hamilton really didn't come back." Standing in the cold square and looking around, Knight Ortiz had a very interesting expression on his face.

He already knew that most of the family members brought by Earl Hamilton had gone to the main city of Montes, not even the maids were left behind.

Obviously, we should be worried about whether there will be any problems in Montes... If you think about the reason why these people can't come back, you will know that it must be a problem.

But Ortiz felt strangely happy, probably because he thought that Fabrice, who had sent him to this place and participated in such a strange thing, was not feeling well.

"Huh..." Valera exhaled a puff of white mist and said calmly, "That's just right. Earl Ezra can save some heating money."

It’s not like there haven’t been earl inauguration ceremonies in the North during the winter before.

After all, no one can decide when life ends.

Therefore, everyone is very clear that the biggest expense of the winter ceremony is the warm sheds built in the square for the families who are not strong enough... If the family members have a place to keep warm, the guests who come to the ceremony must also have some!
Even if the knights were not that afraid of the cold, no one would be willing to stand in the cold wind for hours.

You can't dress like a ball in this kind of occasion!

They are professionals!
However, today's inauguration ceremony for Earl Hamilton is a test of everyone's body and face.

Valeera couldn't help but glance at the female nobles standing on the inside... They were wearing fur dresses produced by Qingfengling and standing quite relaxedly.

In fact, it was the female nobles who felt more comfortable today. They had all gone shopping in Qingfeng Territory or Montes main city to some extent, and they would naturally bring these expensive and beautiful clothes with them when they went out.

But men obviously still focus on their dress armor.

When Qingfengling was selling clothes, it was definitely not possible for him to only do business with women. He also made a lot of men's winter clothing, including formal wear.

But men in the north have always believed that it is their honor to face the ice and snow, and there is no need to waste money on expensive clothes that cannot be worn indoors.

If they really need to be outside for a long time in winter, it must be to participate in combat... Then what is the use of clothes?

Not everyone has to wear armor.

Who could have imagined that Ezra Hamilton would fight back in a place like this?

The nobles, knowing how wealthy the earl was, never thought about having to swallow ice and snow for five hours when they came to Hamilton.

Many male nobles looked at Baron Watson, who was standing in the front, with murderous gleams in their eyes.

Of course, they would not die. The knights were able to keep warm by circulating the energy in their bodies.

But why do they have to endure it?

Besides, who wouldn’t feel uncomfortable if they had to endure this for five hours?
Even knight training would not ignite the blood so continuously.

Of course, if one is strong enough, such as Earl Ezra, then there is no need to worry about whether it is cold or not.

With his physique as a level 16 knight, even a little colder would have no effect on him.

Even level 12 and above is no problem.

However, most of the nobles are not even at level 10. No, it should be said that there are not many nobles above level 8.

The North is still the region with the highest average occupational level among northern nobles!
Valera let out a long breath and suddenly realized that her family was not as weak as she thought.

Charles would be a natural at this occasion.

The people in Qingfeng seemed to have a distorted understanding of their own strength because their boss had made rapid progress.

Ortiz couldn't help but mutter again: "Fortunately we don't have to stand in the front."

Logically speaking, the two of them, representing Qingfeng Territory and Montes Territory, should stand at the front of the square, below the platform where Ezra was standing.

However, the strong people in Qingfeng Territory are the people, but the territory itself still belongs to the barony.

It was fine for Grand Knight Ortiz to stand there, but it was a different matter if the barony's subjects also stood there.

But if only Ortiz was arranged to go forward, the other nobles would probably not dare to leave Valeira standing behind.

Therefore, Ezra's assistant, Mr. Bowen, who was in charge of arranging the seating, finally chose to arrange the seats according to the status of the nobles who officially attended, and the others just stood on the periphery and watched.

Then Ortiz and Valera happily stood at the outermost edge of the square. The view was really good.

However, Valeera soon felt the best point.

She almost forgot that the royal family members of the North were all devout storm believers... at least on the surface.

Even the White Dragon King has to offer sacrifices to the Lord of Storms every year!

Even though the royal family obeys the Law of Storms and only follows the will of the Lord of Storms, and does not pay much attention to the Church of Storms, at such a critical moment, they will still invite a serious high priest of the Storm to preside over the ceremony.

Valera and Ortiz looked silently at the Storm Priest who was muttering to himself on the podium, their faces full of excitement.

"Fabris, Count, there has been no formal succession ceremony. Is this the reason?"

Valera finally realized why Count Fabrice had always claimed that he was not strong enough and did not want to appear in public, while Lori and Madame Yagris never had any objection to this.

As the basic link of the aristocratic system, there is not much to say about the baron's appointment.

But the earl of the territory must follow his own beliefs and wear the earl's sword under the watchful eyes and witnesses of the gods. If they don't do it, although it will not affect their titles in the noble office, it still checks something at the public level.

But Fabrice, how could you possibly accept the "sincere teachings" of a Storm High Priest?

The more I listen, the more I want to kill someone.

Ortiz nodded and shook his head: “It has an impact, but not a big one.

When Fabrice took over the title of Earl, the hurricane of the Lord of Storms was still echoing in the territory.

Although it is a bit far-fetched, Fabrice did become the Count of Montes under the personal witness of the Lord.

The Storm Church did not dare to deny this.

But the Montes ancestral land is not happy about this.”

Ortiz glanced at Valera, "And the last thing Fabrice wants is their satisfaction."

Valera suddenly realized: "That's good."

They in Qingfeng Territory don't need to worry about this, even if His Majesty Travis goes crazy one day and insists on upgrading their territory to an earldom.

Even if those guys in the Storm Church had a hundred guts, they would not dare to say that the Lord of Qingfeng Territory is not welcome in Storm.

It is no secret that the hurricane incarnation of the Storm Lord often appears in Qingfeng Territory.

Lowry has never been very respectful to gods, but the gods all know him.

Even though the Dark Night Goddess always makes trouble for Lowry, she has publicly recognized Lowry's character.

It’s just that she thinks character has no value compared to one’s stance.

These are the original words of the Dark Night Goddess.

Valera heard from Chesca that when Lori heard about this, his face changed for a long time, and he almost started to curse the goddess and said she was sick.

But this is what he meant implicitly.

"You say, the Watson family is so arrogant, and they are sure that Earl Ezra can't do anything to them. Is it related to the Storm Church?" Ortiz asked in a low voice.

"Is this high priest from the Schroeder family?" Valera looked up.

The Storm Priest standing in front of Ezra, with his dress and temperament, really gave people a feeling of floating in the air.

She had met about ten Storm Bishops, but had never seen a high priest who was so in line with the sense of 'wind'.

Valera frowned slightly and asked softly, "Ortiz, you haven't seen the true appearance of the Northland High Priest either?"

Ortiz looked at her in surprise, then looked at the storm priest with flying green feathers on the platform: "No, no way?"

Although he did think that the Northern Storm Church would not allow the royal family to mess around in the North, but...

Come to think of it, that person has indeed been silent for nearly twenty years! —
The voice of the Storm High Priest was very melodious, and every word was distinct, written into people's hearts.

However, Ezra, who was standing in front of him, had a sullen face and was not moved at all.

He had never been so grateful as he was now for his decision to let his wife and daughter stay in Montes Territory.

Although his face was different and his voice had changed, there was no way Silla would fail to recognize the high priest who had been in the Northern Capital for forty years.

As a sixteenth-level Grand Knight and the King's cousin, Ezra possesses certain privileges.

For example, the storm blessing at this moment is just a pure blessing... The officiant only needs to finish the prayer and blessing.

There is no need to crown him with a sword as the chief priest.

But if the officiant turned around and gave his daughter a blessing during the ceremony, Pearl would have to knight him.

Even when he publicly divided part of the territory to Pearl, the high priest also gave Pearl a Storm Sword.

Ezra already had the Royal Sword and the Supreme Sword... The Count's Sword naturally had no status, he just had to hang it under the other two swords.

If the occasion is not very formal, Ezra can just bring his Supreme Sword, the representative of his level 16 knight.

After all, this is the only symbol that truly belongs to him.

When Ezra thought about his cute little daughter almost being touched by such a dirty guy in front of him...his wrist burned slightly.

Ezra took a deep breath. Bowen was so annoying!

Damn it, how dare this bitch come to the North!
No wonder that idiot Watson dared to do such a thing... Wait, is that guy planning to exchange territory with the Storm Nobles?

Ezra quickly reviewed the location of Watson's territory in his mind.

Although it has little impact on the North itself, the Watson family does have a border.

Ezra's eyes instantly turned cold: Do those two leaders from Qingfeng know that High Priest Schroeder has come to the North?
When the ceremony was over, would he have to go and have a chat with Valeera?
Lori, if you want to kill this guy, the Lord of Storms shouldn't care, right?
