Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 687 Is the Lord of Knowledge really that unlucky?

Such a belief in a god would probably be difficult for both Poseidon and Triton to understand.

Needless to say, the people they brought out were also exceptional.

Even if the world where the sea people live has a world ruler who seems kind but is also confused and naive, it's still the same.

Just by listening, you can tell that he is actually quite dictatorial and doesn't care about human wishes at all, doing whatever he wants.

Although Travis didn't quite understand the principles behind the Moon Clan and the Undead, he could comprehend that while these elemental beings were difficult to control, they weren't entirely uncontrollable.

The undead are even more chaotic!
There are more people, and they are stronger.

But whether it's the Lord of Time and Space or that William, they can make them abide by the rules and point out the direction... Whether by force or by subtle guidance, this proves their management ability.

As for that Oiseus, it's obvious... it has nothing.

Moreover, they have absolutely no self-awareness about their own abilities.

He's a typical example of someone who's bad at the game but has a huge addiction; he'll cry for help when faced with a tough opponent.

Oasis is the world of the earth, and Hill is the son of the earth; they're probably from the same vine, so I rushed to save him.

Whether it's a father, an older brother, or a younger brother, everyone has someone to call for help.

It's something outsiders can only envy.

Travis was truly grateful that the embodiment of his world's will, the god who refused to call himself the ruler of the world, was not a god like Oiseus.

Although that person sounds alright, and their bottom line is on the kind side, ... their world, which has at least a minimum of freedom within certain rules, is still better.

If he lived in Oises, he'd probably just be thinking about rushing into space and leaving as soon as possible... I wonder if that guy would even let people out.

It doesn't sound that harsh.

The sea people who grew up in this kind of world would probably only believe the illusion when faced with the truth about the Scroll Mountain explosion and the illusion he had just constructed.

After all, the truth had even stunned them, who were already used to it, for several days!
Even the Goddess of Wealth couldn't help but step in to calculate whether the profits generated by the believers bought by the Lord of Knowledge were balanced with the losses from the complete destruction of Scroll Mountain.

Although the outcome is unknown, the fact that the Goddess of Wealth didn't say anything afterward means that the principal was broken.

Otherwise, whether you make a profit or a loss, the Goddess of Wealth will definitely announce it.

Of course, for the Lord of Knowledge, the time these people bought for him might be the benefit he desires most, and this is something that cannot be calculated.

But this operation is still quite puzzling.

Travis knew that gods like the Lord of Knowledge generally had a history.

After all, if he didn't have some powerful connections, his public announcement that he would share all his knowledge would have been enough to kill him from the start.

All smooth sailing must be because someone helped change the wind direction.

He initially thought it was the Lord of Storms, but later discovered it wasn't.

Although the Lord of Storms is quite reckless and impulsive, he could never raise a spendthrift like the Lord of Knowledge.

Everyone understands the concept of trading money and resources for time, but not everyone is willing to do it.

It's impossible for princes and princesses to do that. If they could really spend money like water, they wouldn't have offended nobles everywhere.

The case of Yagris is not an isolated incident, but rather just one example among many.

Of course, Travis never felt any remorse towards Aagris for this... The lady's choice was the result of her own weighing of the pros and cons, not a forced concession.

Iagos had countless ways to contact him and get him to come and take his two foolish sons back.

However, she must have sensed a crisis from Count Gezar's behavior, so she decisively broke away from the family.

A level 12 Grand Knight with a military background is not someone anyone can easily achieve.

Actually, Aggris's choice of path wasn't wrong; she just didn't expect Montes to play such dirty tricks.

Fortunately, she still has Lori.

Lowry was the richest kid he had ever met, but he would still weigh the cost-effectiveness and calculate the expenses when faced with a situation.

A person who does everything without considering the cost... The Lord of Knowledge originally appeared as a human nobleman... He couldn't figure out how to raise him.

Travis was really curious about the origins of the Lord of Knowledge.

Unfortunately, the Lord of Storms truly kept this a secret.

But just now, Travis suddenly had a flash of inspiration... Even the gods who don't care whether the River Styx, which governs the souls of the entire world, comes from outside, probably wouldn't mind if outsiders obtained the title of gods of faith from them.

So the Lord of Storms might not have really kept quiet all this time; he might genuinely be unaware... Thinking of this, Travis felt a chill run down his spine at the sheer carelessness of his god.

However, it is precisely such deities that allow humankind to possess so much freedom.

Travis sighed, looking helpless, and said, "The Lord of Knowledge probably doesn't even understand what's going on!"

He turned his head and smiled slightly at Lowry, whose face was calm but whose eyes were conflicted, unsure whether he should continue to cooperate: "But you don't need to worry, Lowry."

All the books on Scroll Mountain have copies in His Kingdom.

When the time comes, just apply for a set of ten thousand scrolls for your big library. As long as you're willing to pay and can find them, you can copy one from there.

Other libraries may have access restrictions, preventing access to many books.

You shouldn't, no, you definitely won't, right?

Lowry nodded wistfully: "Mm!"

Please stop now, this is putting too much pressure on a shut-in!

If he had that kind of dexterity, why would he have stayed at home all those years ago?
Don't be fooled by how much he earns; it's all earned at the cost of his hair, eyes, and fingers.

His individual drawings are not expensive at all.

Those classmates who got into big companies could earn several times more from a single exposé!
Moreover, you only need to draw twenty small drafts or two large drafts a day... and these are all first drafts!

Although things didn't work out later, they still made money for at least fifteen years!

An artist's peak period is actually limited, so it's a good time to step back and review the work of unfortunate graduates who have chosen the wrong sunset industry.

Doesn't Lowry want to go in and enjoy a life of luxury?
But he really can't do it!

He couldn't bring himself to praise the 'designer' as talented and brilliant when faced with a manuscript filled with other people's marks.

All I can say is that he's a real pain in the neck.

He can't even do things that can be accomplished simply by opening his mouth, let alone anything else.

It wasn't until he came to this world and received some aristocratic training that he became much more agile.

But he couldn't shake his otaku nature, and Lowry's cooperation ended there.

Travis didn't expect Lowry to help him reach the next level.

Al-Saran is still his uncle, but he can only hide in the underground labyrinth and never come out when he needs to put on an act!

This has nothing to do with age, and even less to do with experience.

It's a pleasant surprise that Lowry can help him in crucial moments instead of holding him back!

If it were Al-Saran, his reaction would definitely not be so quick. Even if he didn't stutter, he wouldn't be able to come up with a way to escape in that instant.

That makes sense, given Lowry's reputation, which allows him to say things like, "I know everything, and you're right, but I'm absolutely not going to tell you," without arousing suspicion.

Not to mention Travis standing here, even if it were the gods, Lowry could say such things with such confidence.

His track record over the years makes his words particularly convincing. Everyone knows that while Lori Montes may be good at bluffing, he never lies.

As for what he actually meant... those involved can understand it, and those who have no connection to it misunderstand, so it doesn't really matter.

But if you continue down the wrong path, you might be in for a world of trouble.

Lowry only targets people with problems, unlike him, who targets people with a specific goal in mind.

However, when dealing with external enemies, Lowry is still very capable and quick-witted.

Travis gave Lowry a satisfied smile, which turned into a genuine smile the moment the boy nestled comfortably into the sofa.

What a pity, why wasn't this child born to him?
-
For gods and divine beings, this dimensional space of only a few thousand square meters is really too small.

It was as quiet as a conversation already hushed in the Crystal Palace, as if whispered in their ears.

The gods, however, remained completely unfazed, their eyes showing no emotion whatsoever as they looked at the sea people.

The only one who might be at fault, the Lord of Ice... Having been used to being kept in the dark from the beginning, his first reaction was not that Travis was lying, but rather, "So that's how it is."

The gods weren't deliberately hiding it from him.

Although the Lord of Ice is evil in his ways, his stance is quite firm.

With the White Dragon King already completely bound to this world, the gods did not believe that the Lord of Ice could turn the world upside down on his own.

But what can he do when he has a rain goddess in his mind?

This is one of the reasons why the gods are completely indifferent to the entry of foreign deities into their world.

Rainwater, that's the true rebel born and raised here.

The reason she went astray was because from the very beginning, she saw in her eyes the splendor of the water deities that the Outer Gods wanted her to see.

And the immense power of the sea god.

She wanted to stand above all the gods, which is why she went further and further astray and disregarded the bottom line of the world's will.

Therefore, the gods truly believe that as long as one is willing to merge with the laws of this world and accept the bottom-line constraints of the world's will, whether one is external to the gods or not is completely unimportant.

After the Lord of Earth realized what Travis was doing, he did not stand directly between the Lord of Ice and the sea creature, but instead floated to the side of the Lord of Ice.

Even though this guy suddenly shouted, "Huh? Is the Lord of Knowledge so unlucky?"
