Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 570: The Excluded Schroeder Family

"It seems that the Lord of Knowledge is fine." Almes sighed softly, "High Priest Schroeder's death was not in vain."

"Have you been playing games with him these days, brother?" Pearl sneered, "Don't say that you and him sympathize with each other!

I'm not afraid of you being single for the rest of your life, but I'm afraid that when you want to get married you won't be able to find a willing girl."

Almes hesitated for a moment before asking tentatively, "Have you reached any consensus?"

Their parents have some connection with the royal family, the army and the nobles.

Moreover, although they are not important in each force, they all have a considerable presence.

When Almes awakened his natural talent in adulthood, he was sent directly to the palace for education. No one had any social requirements for him, but Pearl was different. She had "friends who could talk" on both sides.

Of course, we are not close friends, but there is no problem in communicating.

Pearl can even help convey some common information among the three forces.

This is a unique way of communication for girls. It does not involve their privacy, but it is about everyone's emotions.

For example, some men who like to flirt with girls and have multiple relationships at the same time will reach some consensus through the presence of someone like Pearl... It doesn't mean that everyone will stop dating this man, but dating him means that they will not blame another woman just because he suddenly has a new target to pursue.

By doing so, you can avoid misunderstandings about "stealing marriage partners".

Therefore, men in the upper class would hide their restlessness to some extent before getting married, and would never be regarded as "unsuitable people" by these girls.

It’s not that if the two families reach a marriage agreement, the lady will firmly deny it.

Being arranged to marry into a family, they are basically unable or unwilling to resist.

However, the content of the agreement between the two parties in the marriage may be fundamentally different due to the man's unconsciousness: for example, should they treat each other with respect and abide by the bottom line of marriage, or should they treat each other with coldness and go their separate ways and play with their own affairs after giving birth to an heir?

In fact, serious nobles are not willing to have a second marriage.

When a couple walks on stranger paths, it will have a negative impact on the future of any family.

At least that child's attitude towards the future must not be normal.

Even the marriage agreement between Count Montes and Lady Yagris did not involve any ethical issues, and it implicitly acknowledged that even if the relationship between the two parties was not good, they had to respect the marriage agreement.

Although this marriage ended up in a mess, it served as a clear warning to many young and energetic girls... A man who is deeply in love with his ex-wife is definitely not a good husband for his later wife.

But before this marriage, Count Montes's character and moral standards were widely recognized.

Moreover, most of the girls approved of Lady Yagris's decision to choose Count Montes instead of marrying directly into the royal family and becoming the wife of a playboy who lived a life of debauchery before getting married.

Even after seeing the outcome of Mrs. Yagris's marriage, the girls only added a prerequisite for this kind of marriage: if they have no expectations from their husband's family but want a proper marriage and children, they can choose this kind of marriage.

The problem with Mrs. Yagris was that she was not mentally prepared for this... She had never thought about the power of the Montes family, but she did not expect that her own children would not even get the care and love of their father.

But if you are mentally prepared enough for this, this kind of marriage is not completely impossible.

Just look at what kind of future you want.

Although Almes didn't know much about these things, Pearl, who had always had a close relationship with him, would bring them up with him when they encountered some things that they both "disapproved" of.

He was afraid that he would not be able to marry the girl of his dreams in the future, so he had no choice but to choose a forced marriage.

But even so, Pearl had never said anything so absolute.

There is always someone who can choose to give up his or her position for the sake of power.

These girls do not approve of this choice, but they will not completely deny it… It may not sound good to say that they don’t want to work hard anymore, but it is only themselves who are giving up.

Almes suddenly felt that perhaps, this time, it would not only be Priest Schroeder himself who would die.

If these girls really agree not to marry a man from the Schroeder family.

That's the Duke's family!
Although the Schroeder family had a hard time and was ostracized by most of the noble women after the incident with Gezar broke out, Almes really couldn't believe that they could actually unite.

Of course, this doesn't mean that the Schroeder family can't find wives. Anyway, there will always be girls from small and medium-sized noble families who are willing to marry.

Even if it is a side branch, one can definitely marry a talented wife.

But who could have imagined the difference between them!
The decline of the matriarchal lineage is more than just a loss of power and wealth.

Just like Pearl's social circle, it is not accessible to women of inferior backgrounds.

Then they will naturally become disadvantaged in cognition and information... The social season of the nobles has never been just to help children find a suitable partner.

That’s just added value!

"Brother~" Pearl looked at Almes with a serious face and sneered, "It turns out that even someone as considerate as my brother, who is willing to understand the world of girls, still cannot resonate with us in this regard!"

Almes shook his head helplessly: "Isn't it normal that there is a gap in perception?

If there is no difference, then why should humans be divided into males and females?" Pearl gently placed a hand on his shoulder: "Forget it, my brother, you are the kind of person who only distinguishes between inside and outside, regardless of gender or age.

So, this time I will explain to you the difference.

Those playboys are really annoying.

It's not just because they don't care about their future families at all...it's also because, how can such people control themselves?

Even if you have no hope for marriage, you have to choose a man with bottom line!
Of course, the same goes for women.

The two of them are a perfect match.

But for girls like us from good families, there is no need to suffer that injustice. We are not like a certain princess who can at least buy ourselves a crown.

But the Schroeder family is different!

What is the difference between them and those who eat human flesh?

That's right, High Priest Schroeder took control of the situation and let everything remain on the branches and outsiders. None of Schroeder's direct descendants had eaten it personally.

But not only did they know, they had most likely witnessed everything with their own eyes, and... accepted it.

Brother, we formed this scattered circle, of course, in order to give ourselves a better future.

Instead, let yourself and your children become food in the eyes of some people.

If you can eat other women...when you are hungry, you can eat your own women too."

Almes was stunned for a moment, but he couldn't deny Pearl's words, and even couldn't help but feel some agreement.

He couldn't help but sigh at the sensitivity of these girls...If people who are used to eating people can't tell the difference between inside and outside after that, will they be able to tell the difference between men and women?
The Schroeder family should really be grateful to the ladies of Gezar for exposing this matter before everything became irreversible.

Otherwise, their future... really, I dare not even think about it.

Almes suddenly looked up at the sky.

Although it had been set on fire, the scroll still stood with extraordinary determination in front of the line of fire, preventing the enemy from rushing directly to the real bright moon along the connection between the two moons.

But he could also see that it wasn't the scroll that was so powerful.

But the fierce-looking line of fire seemed to have its speed restricted by something.

Normally speaking, the enemy has made so many preparations that it is impossible for them not to understand the meaning of speed.

Furthermore, the Storm Lord, who was right next to them but remained motionless, proved that this was a prepared war.

Almes didn't believe that the other party carelessly let Watson deliver the things to High Priest Schroeder, which meant that he really believed in the High Priest who had not lost the power of the storm.

Then, being able to do this must be the result of Priest Schroeder's own efforts... He did indeed completely burn his body and soul.

Almes shook his head slightly: "Why bother?

Mingming, so smart and capable, full of wisdom and ideas."

In the past few days, he worked closely with Uncle Bowen to suppress Priest Schroeder, who had not even stepped out of the church.

They, including the adventurer and McMillan, were plotting against Priest Schroeder while also being exploited by him.

Especially those adventurers who strolled around the church every day, they really... almost took away some messy things.

They are all good stuff. Even if you take them to Qingfengling, you can sell them for dozens of gold coins.

However, when mixed together, it will cause the most terrible consequences.

If Almes hadn't reacted quickly, and if he hadn't learned how to make strange objects from Archmage Arsalan, Hamilton City's basic magic array would have come to a standstill by now.

He didn't believe that the adventurers who came to rob the Storm Church would let go of the money that was so easily within their grasp.

And without any monitoring.

But just this simple move almost made Bowen's efforts for so long go to waste.

Uncle Bowen actually did a perfect job, but the imbalance in information...

All of this was done when Schroeder's main target was someone else.

And they, Hamilton, were not even the high priest's dimensional target.

"Master Almes, I just received news that Archdeacon McMillan has died."

A knight came running over in a hurry.

Pearl, with a look of disgust on her face, couldn't help but straighten up.
