Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 712 Because you are all of dragon blood?
Once Travis realized that Lowry's method was feasible, he quickly gathered his thoughts.

Lowry is generally only sensitive to his own affairs and those of people close to him, and doesn't pay much attention to what others want to do, but Travis can't be sure if the boy will pay special attention to the Church of the Tower because of Pat's presence.

In particular, what he was planning to do was harmful to everyone in that secret base, and who knows if Lowry might suddenly have a brilliant idea.

No one can control such unpredictable events; the best approach is to avoid thinking too much about it in front of the child.

Travis had originally planned to stay in Lowry's secluded castle a little longer, but now it seemed best to leave first.

Travis glanced at Arms: "I'll go back to Hamilton with you."

Armies looked at him in surprise: "Huh?"

“As soon as you see me, all your mother’s little worries vanish.” Travis shook his head slightly. “I wanted to laugh when you were struggling with this just now.”

You were born in the royal palace, Almes!

The fundamental laws of the Northern Royal Palace were formed under the witness of the world's will.

No matter how powerful you were before, this law will hold true as long as the world hasn't collapsed.

Rosalind simply went astray during her growth; she wasn't problematic from the beginning.

Your reincarnation must have followed the proper path to be born into royalty.

Otherwise, that glimmer of inspiration would have been destroyed... it would have been tantamount to suicide.

Otherwise, wouldn't the various royal families become the birthplaces of those fallen gods?
Aside from those that collapsed unexpectedly at the beginning, and those that struggled for a long time before finally succeeding, everyone has some backup plans!
You don't think the Goddess of Rain is the only smart person, do you?
The royal families of the kingdoms clearly dislike restricting their churches, yet they still have to give way to the churches that shackle them, and even tolerate them... For example, that scoundrel Schröder, is it because they are too devout in their faith?
Of course, it's because only these churches can eliminate those territorial nobles who have inexplicably gained special abilities and are difficult for even the army to deal with!

Count Gezar...the evil alchemy he suddenly acquired later, which church is terrified? Is the royal family really that incredible?
There are precedents for all of these.

The reason why the Lord of Storms did not truly cleanse High Priest Schroeder of his evil ways and gave him a chance to return to the right path was largely due to his actions, which caused a certain evil god who tried to use the appearance of a devil to conceal his existence to utterly fail.

The Storm Priests, by nature, possess this special power... to exhume these lurking evil gods attempting to rise from the ashes at the cost of anyone's life. Ha!
Otherwise, why would I have only dealt with Gezar and so... easily accepted the outcome for the Schröder family?

Later, they ran into trouble when High Priest Schröder discovered that while he was scheming against others, those people were also reaching into his family.

How many good children can a family that has been bullying others for a long time have?
Once a powerful and influential family is rotten to the core, it can forget about ever getting better.

He was lucky to leave behind two descendants; he died young.

Armes lowered his head and thought for a moment before asking seriously, "The reason why the gods, including the night and the storm, don't care much about the mess in their own churches is because they plan to leave all these guys in the old era before the new world arrives?"

“You are indeed very smart.” Travis looked at him approvingly. “Lowry doesn’t have that kind of brain.”

They actually think that the gods tolerate those filthy places because they are powerless and choose to remain silent... Even if it's just a back garden, or even a mountain next to it, which powerful being would allow something dirty to exist under their noses!
However, if it can generate some benefits for them, then tolerating it for a short period of time is not out of the question.

Those who are restless and do not have much reverence for the gods will naturally be led astray.

They were only given a chance to fight lightly by the gods they once relied on and believed in... After the world's will is fully awakened, all that will be seen is a clear sky.

Instead of the mess we have now.

This period of tolerance is simply relatively long for humans.

But for the gods, who possess endless life, it is only a short while.

We won't be unable to wait any longer.

Travis gave Lowry a subtle look, then turned back to Armis: "Indeed, only mature people can understand!"

Lowry, who was called out, couldn't help but sneer: "Don't talk like you're the one who knows everything, okay, Your Majesty Travis?"

That's really disgusting!

You haven't even lived a fraction of what they've lived!

“He will only ever be Armies,” Travis said with a smug smile. “That’s my family!”
What's wrong with me being smug?
Are you just envious and jealous?

Travis, finally finding the chance to return those words to Lowry, was overjoyed… Twenty years had passed, and he had finally gotten his revenge. Lowry knew why those words sounded familiar.

After all, for many years and many times before, he had said the same thing to Travis in the same tone.

"You're so petty!" Lowry exclaimed sincerely.

"It's me who's been feeling stifled all these years~" Travis smiled with a satisfied expression.

"So, what brilliant plan did you come up with to deal with the Tower Lord that suddenly sparked your interest in dredging up old scores from decades ago?" Lori delivered a blunt rebuke without hesitation.

Although he didn't care who Travis was secretly plotting against, nor whether His Majesty the King was secretly trying to gain the upper hand... Lowry absolutely didn't want to see someone so smug in front of him, or using him as a clown for amusement.

“Lowry, have you noticed that you’re a little too perceptive about some things?” Travis gasped, then immediately said in an extremely sincere tone, “I can assure you, just now, even my subordinates who have followed me for hundreds of years wouldn’t have realized that my target was the Lord of the Tower.”

They can only deduce from those conversations that my enemies are those Outer Gods.

"Armes, you certainly didn't expect this, did you?"

Armies paused for a moment before hesitatingly saying, "Perhaps it's because you all have dragon blood?"

Travis and Lowry looked at him together, their expressions remarkably similar: What are you saying?

"In short, I have no way of figuring out which of these many conditions is the key point," Armes said with his unchanging smile. "After all, each condition leads to a completely different outcome."

Moreover, there is no connection between the conditions.

Even if I possessed a sliver of prophetic talent, I couldn't glean that subtle yet swift hint of destiny from these strange and chaotic clues.

His smile seemed to freeze on his face, and his tone was extremely sincere: "So, as I understand it, it's probably because your destinies are partly intertwined with that tributary of the Dragon Clan, so there might be a moment when your paths cross."

Right now, I can only see human rivers, so I feel nothing at all.

Travis's face showed painful confusion: "I... I really didn't expect to hear this kind of answer!"

He and Lowry were clearly on the path of human relationships, sarcastic remarks, and mutual understanding and conflict!
Why was Almighty able to suddenly bypass all the joking and cursing and come to the knowledge questions he didn't want to hear at all?
If he were truly capable, how could he and Luscania have come up with a completely wrong idea despite pooling their wisdom?
Seeing Lowry's eyes light up, eager to discuss the relevant arguments with Armies, Travis quickly stopped him, saying, "Let's get back on track!"

When one person babbles something he doesn't understand, that's called performing a monologue; when two people do it together... that's excluding Travis.

The King of the North had no interest in wasting this time.

Regardless of whether these two were actually teaming up against him or not... after all, he had indeed offended both of them during their conversation, but Travis could easily pretend nothing had happened!
With such thick skin, he'll succeed at anything.

Lowry and Armies exchanged a glance, confirming that neither of them had any interest in continuing to entangle with Travis. All they needed to do was for him to behave himself.

"I won't interfere with how you deal with the Lord of the Tower, but please don't drag me into it... That's my only request, is that alright, Your Majesty?" Lori's voice was soft, but her tone was extremely firm.

Travis hesitated for a moment, then immediately nodded: "No problem!"
If you don't mind, all the final victory and credit will go to me, then I would certainly be happy to take this opportunity to show my strength and intelligence.

I still hope that, in people's minds, we can erase some of the marks of the past as much as possible.

But... what humans love most is always gossip.

It's really difficult unless it's something earth-shattering.

Lowry just gave him a completely emotionless smile... So what if he had many wives and children, dozens or even hundreds of kids, yet in the end the throne still went to his grandson!

Ever since Leon left the North, the fact that Travis's true love was only his former princess has been known to the world.
Although Lowry always felt that the person who spread this rumor was a bit off.

After all, Travis was very active in marrying and having children, enjoying the beauty of youth... The nobles still had some reservations. Even if it was a marriage alliance, the girls sent to be queens were at least impeccable in terms of appearance and manners.

Otherwise, even if Travis can swallow this anger for the sake of that little bit of profit, he will definitely hold them accountable later.

Only those who are weak know.
