Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 537: Miss McMillan is very scheming

Lori Montez wasn't known for his extraordinary talent back then.

Instead, at such a young age, he actually took a white dragon for 'hardcore' shopping.

“Has our family also been targeted?” Celestia was a little confused.

"Eight out of ten of the people they targeted were Storm Nobles." The staff sighed helplessly, "In the capital, we are the weak ones.

The reason why the family has had to endure the suppression of the Schroeder family for so many years is not because with them around, the royal family's spearhead will only be directed at them!
It’s not like we can’t really defeat them, nor is it true that we can’t find any evidence against them.”

They really didn't know about the dirty things the Schroeder family had done.

Although McMillan is not a good person, he is indeed the most loyal follower of the Lord of Storms.

They believe that their piety can win the favor of God, and they have always been disdainful of those who deceive God through crooked means.

If he knew, he would definitely kneel before the statue of the Lord of Storms as quickly as possible... If possible, McMillan could be the warrior who stood in front of all the Storm nobles and held up the flag of the church!
Their patience is just a second-best option.

Therefore, most of the clues that McMillan had that were unfavorable to the Schroeder family were small sabotages that Duke Schroeder secretly carried out on the Northern royal family.

Although the White Dragon King changed wives very quickly, it was really not that fast at the beginning.

It was all thanks to Duke Schroeder’s hard work and help.

But McMillan will definitely not reveal these secrets!

They are also storm nobles.

I will definitely not easily kill my colleagues for the sake of justice.

It's not like we've already won and need one less person to share the spoils.

The only thing the McMillan family can do is to try to cut ties with the Schroeder family. They must not let the other party be caught on the spot by the White Dragon King one day and implicate their McMillan family as well.

So, although the McMillan family was somewhat confused about what happened to Celestia back then, in the end everyone just played dumb and let it go.

After all, no matter whether it was the White Dragon King or the Lord of the Tower who reached into their base, they had, well, reasons to deal with them.

What the staff said actually gave the McMillan family a lot of credit.

How can the Storm Nobles be called weak in the capital?

That's called a shit stirrer!
Hmm... this adjective is currently generally used in the capital to refer to mutual destruction.

But we are always better.

Thanks to the King of the North for some common sense.

Although it is said that the other party was deceived by Lowry and that is why he promoted it so actively.

The aide was silent for a few seconds before continuing, “Our side is actually pretty good.

You know, not a nice guy, but not one who would try to make a profit just because the guy selling expensive jewelry is a kid.

At most, I try to cheat a little more, um, make a little money…”

Celestia shook her head helplessly.

Lori Montes is a well-known bad boy in the Northland Kingdom, basically because he likes to play the game of fishing and law enforcement.

The most brutal one was when she took Ruth Cania's jewelry, wearing a set of exquisitely crafted and expensive old clothes, and went to the commercial street and several aristocratic streets to sell them.

That day, several families were very happy... they felt that they had earned almost the entire year's profit with the lowest cost.

There were even a few idiots who didn't lower the purchase price but directly snatched the goods.

Originally, there were some fools who wanted to follow him secretly to see if there was any opportunity to take advantage of.

Then, at night, the beautiful White Dragon lady and her freezing smile arrived.

Celestia never thought that her family was also involved in this farce... But then again, the elders would never mention this matter to the children!

It was so embarrassing that it was said that almost no one survived.

Although it is not known how the two finally divided the loot, since then, no one has ever doubted why Lori Montes had everything.

Everyone's wallet has suffered huge damage.

The Schroeder family remained silent about this.

Lori Montes did a lot of similar things.

The most frustrating thing is that Ruth Kania obeys his orders and dares to do everything he says.

He could even deal with the nobles from the king's faction... Perhaps because he had never respected his father since he was a child, Lowry didn't seem to care at all whether the people he provoked would deal with his own father.

Although, in reality, there isn't.

The nobles were not so stupid that they didn't know that embarrassing Count Montes would make that guy secretly happy.

The point is, this kind of thing is not enough for the nobles to deal with a border earl, especially a great noble who has close ties with the king.

If he was an ordinary local earl...but, if he didn't have such an identity, Lori Montes probably wouldn't be so rampant.

At that time, the noble firm would not have been so easy to accept the bribe from the Montes family and separated him from the family when he was only eight years old. There was also resistance from some victims.

Until now, there are still some nobles in the capital who think this is a very good thing.

Of course, things were particularly bad for the Storm Nobles. The Storm Nobles who were involved in these things were often blamed by everyone.

Otherwise, Lori Montes, who had not separated from the family, would definitely become the new Lord of the North.

With him around, the White Dragon King would definitely not be able to bring the North under royal management.

The North is still the North that has a good relationship with the king but maintains a neutral stance.

It's not like now... In the area where the Lord of Storms has always been, there is no place for Storm believers and Storm Churches. It's ridiculous!
Not to mention that even if Lori came to power, he would not allow the Storm Church to exist in his territory... If he really became a border earl, he would not be so arrogant.

The border earldoms, especially in the north, are not just on guard against humans.

The Ice Lord of the Ice Country and his dog are the biggest threat.

And if one wants to fight against the gods, naturally, only the gods can do it.

For the sake of the entire border, Lori Montes had to accept this reality no matter how reluctant he was... Otherwise, if there really was a big trouble of the evil god's invasion and the Lord of Storms was far away, how would he deal with it?

No matter how strong he is, he is just a mortal.

At most, I can protect myself.

Border Count, you can't just let the border people feed the evil god for your own selfish reasons, right?

He could only allow the emblem of the Church of the Storm to be hung on the side of his castle.

It’s such a pity that I didn’t get to see this outcome.

After all, he could at most allow the Storm Church to exist, but would never accept the power of the Schroeder family.

In the North, only McMillan has this qualification.

Celestia sighed slightly: "Fate, one wrong step leads to many slow steps!"

The female knight looked around and made sure that her young lady and the family's staff were on good terms again, then she said softly, "If Count Fabrice is unwilling to help, when will we leave for Hamilton?"

“Feng Ji, are you sure you will arrive in seven days?” Celestia turned to look at the aide who was wearing a silver-blue robe.

"This is the prediction of the Deputy Priest, and it will never be wrong." The aide answered seriously.

Celestia took a deep breath and said, “Then, we will leave in five days.

We cannot give Earl Hamilton the opportunity to tamper with this.

You, continue to talk to Count Montes's steward and make sure they feel that we are still working hard to gain the recognition of Baron Qingfeng.

It would be best if Priest Schroeder could agree with me."

"That's difficult." Another aide said calmly, "Priest Schroeder is sinister, vicious, and cunning.

Archdeacon McMillan had been involved in church affairs in the North for twenty years, but that didn't stop him from coming to Hamilton.

In fact, we didn't even receive the news until he appeared at the Earl of Hamilton's inauguration ceremony.

Ms. Celis, please be vigilant."

Celestia nodded: “I know.

But I hope my subordinates will not think about whether they can do it or not, but just do their best. "

The staff member smiled slightly: "Of course, your subordinates will naturally follow your requirements."

Celestia glanced at her coldly, then turned to look at her subordinates: "You just said that Count Fabrice is very good-looking, right? Did anyone say anything?"

"Ah..." The female knight was stunned for a moment before she immediately answered, "Fina, Lisa... there are six people who hope to have a chance to have a child with Count Montes."

“Hmm…” Celestia looked up and thought for a moment, “The Montes family really can’t compete with us for the child right now, so let them do whatever they want!

However, I only give them three days.

After that, no matter who succeeds or fails, they must turn back immediately!"

"Yes! Miss Celis."

The female knight left happily.

Outside the guest house where they lived, cheers from several girls were soon heard.

Celestia turned slightly to the side, opened the airtight curtains a little, and carefully peeked into the movements outside.

There was no movement at Montes Castle, which was only 500 meters away from where they lived.

Including, when the girls who had changed into their favorite clothes and dressed up beautifully appeared in several shops near the castle, there was no response.

Celestia turned to look at her two aides and shook her head slightly: "Everything is normal."

The female aide in a silver-blue robe stood up suddenly, grabbed the curtain on the other window, which had a faint gap, and pulled it open.

There were no birds on the small building opposite their window.

Celestia pursed her lips and said, "By the way, what you just said, Master Almes...really, is it not possible?
I really want a child with magical talent.

The deputy priestess... after all, she is already over a hundred years old. If she fails to seize the opportunity this time, it will be difficult for her to continue. "
