Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 551 Almes's Sorrow

"Al!"

Countess Hamilton called out with a gentle look on her face.

The blue-robed wizard, who was separated from her by a few clouds, flew over with a look of surprise on his face: "Mom, how did you know I was back?

Did Baron Lowry inform you?"

"Huh?" Countess Hamilton shook her head in surprise, "No!"

The handsome male wizard frowned slightly, turned around and waved to the two large white birds watching from afar: "Thank you for your escort, I'm home!"

Huo Yu did not react. He just observed Countess Hamilton for a moment. After seeming to confirm her identity, he disappeared from the spot in an instant.

"Is that the live feather of Baron Qingfengling?" Countess Hamilton said with a smile, saying something she had known for a long time, "I didn't expect him to be so polite."

"That should be what His Majesty the King meant." Almes looked at his mother who was unaware of what was happening and suppressed a sigh. "Baron Lori and His Majesty Travis have a good relationship."

"That's for sure." Countess Hamilton nodded in understanding, "Ruth Cania's child is still there!"

Almes decided to change the subject, even though he was already feeling a headache: "Where's Dad? Is he busy?

Why didn't Mom bring Pearl with her?"

"Ah... I forgot about Pearl." Countess Hamilton then remembered her husband and daughter, "I was startled when I heard Bowen say that you suddenly came back, so I came straight here.

strangeness……"

Countess Hamilton finally discovered something was wrong.

Even if Ezra was busy and couldn't come out to greet his son, what about Pearl?

Although the horned Pegasus has certain requirements for the knight's level, a high-level knight like Pearl is definitely qualified... The Countess had already ordered one for her daughter before her breakthrough, and Pearl had also raised it to level 12, which was suitable for riding.

How could Pearl, who loved her brother so much, have the power to come and not rush over?
Even if it was only a hundred meters, she would show up with joy.

The Countess was only momentarily out of control because of her son's sudden return. After she regained her senses, she realized something was wrong: "Bowen, it was intentional."

Her gentle smile instantly disappeared, and a fierce light flashed in her narrowed eyes: “I have been busy dealing with the caravan’s affairs these two days. After all, the strong wind season is coming.

The last time I saw your father and Pearl was probably yesterday morning."

Almes smiled wistfully... Was he going to cheat on his father as soon as he came back?
Although he is no longer afraid of his father's loving touch, he can't fight back, right?

I never expected that I would go home with so much on my mind, only to...

"Let's go! Go home." Countess Hamilton had already ended her surprise at her son's sudden return and had completely calmed down. "Let's go find Bowen and find out what those two are doing!
Then, Al, let me tell you the reason why you suddenly came home.

It looks so formal that even His Majesty the King can't stop you!
Otherwise, how could he have alarmed the great wizard next door to serve as your guard?

I hope this reason doesn’t surprise me too much.”

Almes smiled and said, “Even if I just miss home, His Majesty Travis will agree.

He has great trust in the great wizard next door.

Including, power.”

"Of course!" Countess Hamilton answered without hesitation, "The great Lord of Storms is still over there!"

Almes glanced at his biological mother with a puzzled look... In other words, you know that the person next door may even be able to mobilize the incarnation of the Lord of Storms, but you still treat him as a strange neighbor?

Just, there is a forest and a river between us, and the other party even opened a navigable port for you!

Almes knew that Mage Lori was not an easy type to deal with... but was there anyone who could be easy to talk to with such a strong man?

Learn from your predecessor Leon and send your confidants to the next door to discuss trivial matters. Show more enthusiasm and sincerity to the other party... Even if you can only become familiar strangers, it is better than being awkward like now!

Just for that navigable port, how many excuses can be found!

His parents must have had their old habit again. They were enthusiastic at first, but when they saw that the other party didn't respond, they quickly withdrew.

There is nothing wrong with this. After all, they are both truly strong men and there is no need for them to bow to anyone.

But this is a neighbor! You can't afford to offend a neighbor who is powerful.

Especially, there is such a big trouble in our own territory!
If you don't take care of the people who can ask for help first, can you expect them to save your life when the time comes?

Although that person might lend a helping hand for His Majesty Travis' sake, it's not certain when or at what time!

What if someone in their family gets unlucky?
Only by getting things done in advance can the road ahead be smooth...

Forget it.

Almes thought slowly.

If his parents had this foresight, they would not have been suppressed by the old man who had accumulated seniority to the point that they felt they had a chance only when the other party said to withdraw.

If it were him...

Well, no, you can't think like that.

Almes, you have to be a good person.
For the sake of my dear parents and lovely little sister, and for the sake of such a harmonious family, I must put aside the darkness in my heart and think more about happy things.

He floated behind Countess Hamilton, holding the saddle with one hand, and asked softly, "Mom, are you having fun during this time?"

"Well, I'm very happy." Countess Hamilton looked up and thought for a while, "Although it is a little different from the life of a border lord that I imagined, it is indeed a glimpse of another way of life.

There is a lot of freshness.

Besides, I bought a lot of beautiful and practical clothes for you and Pearl in Montes Territory... It's a pity that for some reason, Qingfeng Territory doesn't have any new styles of dresses and jewelry for sale this year.

We basically have all the old ones, and they can’t be worn in formal occasions.”

Almes sighed slightly, and then answered lightly: "Maybe, it's because Master Lori hasn't studied new wonders this year!"

Countess Hamilton suddenly realized: "Oh, that's right.

Although the guy next door is very strong, he is the only one who has the ability to study these things.

Those apprentices can only imitate, not innovate.”

His mother's thinking is becoming more and more business-oriented.

Almes quickly confirmed this...So, his dad was still paying for that?

Although the Countess likes to mess with the caravan, she has never suffered any hardship other than cultivation, so she is basically satisfied as long as the profit is good, and will not care too much about how the caravan makes money.

Thinking of the part about imitation and innovation, she must have spent a lot of time on the daily affairs of the caravan.

In other words, she could no longer tolerate her subordinates earning the well-known "hard-earned money".

Almes pursed his lips.

Given his mother's temper, although she would ensure that his father had enough food and clothing, she would never provide money to satisfy his little hobbies.

And his father... hehe ~ all his life savings are gone. The annual income from the territory plus the royal pension is barely enough to support the construction of the territory.

Although Ezra has many problems, he will never waste money that has already been determined when the territory needs large-scale construction.

It’s been such a long time… So, is his father doing something that makes money but is not in line with the image of a noble?
Uncle Bowen, although he is a decent man, he is also a good guy.

He often chooses to cover up some of his father's "a little too much" things.

Almes glanced worriedly at the castle that was already so close... Actually, his mother should be used to his father doing some out-of-line things.

But why bring Pearl with you?
Although Pearl is already an adult, her family has raised her to be extremely...smart. So smart that her brain would occasionally get wet. Almes was really a little worried.

Even if Pearl was fine, Almes took a worried look at her, and was stung by his mother's eyes full of anger... He really came back to help, not to send his father to die!
