Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 741 The Difficult Life in the Royal Palace

Lowry had intended to put the Anywhere Door spell, which was confirmed to be written in Celestial Language, into the teleportation array, but then withdrew it.

He vaguely felt that something was wrong.

Then he looked at it again and decided to give up.

There's no need to have Al-Saran come immediately.

Looking at the countless caves ahead, Lowry stretched his arms slightly before burying himself back into his studies.

He doesn't have much time left.

After all, Armies couldn't stay there for long.

He'll now sit there obediently, simply because he needs to determine the patrol patterns of a certain bright red dragon.

The killing fortress on the third floor is really annoying, but that mad god in the name of killing is really cowardly.

They would never easily appear before Karix.

If the timing is right, and Karix passes through the third level while he is out on patrol, then even if the Lord of Slaughter intends to do something, he will first see Karix's choice.

By the time he realized that Karix had no interest in Armies and his group, it was too late to do anything.

There's nothing good on the third floor, they should just jump to the fourth floor.

The biggest advantage of a closed tunnel is that, apart from the person who has the key, no one can find a definite path, no one can be certain of it.

Just as everyone knows that the guardian of Paradise Mountain is in a certain area of ​​the sealed tunnel, and countless people have made a fortune in that area, no one can find that exact location.

Lowry estimated that he could only watch for three days at most.

No, according to the calculation method of the Noisy Tunnel, it should be after the Roaring Cave roared three times in a row.

Perhaps, not even three days.

He needs to hurry.

Although Huo Yu has very sharp eyesight, his mind is limited.

Try to copy down as many things as you are interested in!

"Leon."

Yuri entered the study wearing a well-fitting light blue robe, his platinum blonde hair neatly tied back with a matching jeweled hairpin.

Leon, sitting at his desk reviewing documents, was also dressed in a magnificent knight's uniform.

Only his impatient expression remained the same as before.

"What's wrong?" Leon looked up from the thick pile of documents. "Alsalan didn't..."

“No, quite the opposite.” Yuri interrupted his guess. “Archmage Arsalan gave me a demonstration of the full magic array operation mode today and also added my aura to the central control.”

I can finally take independent control of the Crown Prince's palace where we live.

Leon was taken aback: "Huh? Didn't you say yesterday that Al-Saran would probably be delayed for seven or eight days?"

“That’s right,” Yuri said with some concern. “Earning it a day earlier could still be an unexpected event.”

"Over these past few days, someone must have done something... Was it, Your Majesty?"

“Absolutely impossible!” Leon sneered, patting the thick mountain of documents in front of him. “If he had any conscience, he wouldn’t have dumped all this stuff on me, who has to work twelve hours a day!”

I haven't exploded yet, it's all...

His low growl seemed a bit loud, and suddenly outside the study came the sound of a piano, like the gurgling of a spring stream, which could calm anyone who heard it.

"Thank you for your hard work, Seven." Yuri walked to the window and gently knocked.

"That's all I can do," the bard standing against the wall outside the window said helplessly. "I don't even dare to go to the bards' club."

Seriously, I'm so useless.

“No need.” Yuri smiled faintly. “Using tests as a pretext to make things difficult for us is indeed very disruptive.”

But as long as we hold on, they can't do anything more.

To wield the big stick of rules, one must stand on the high ground of those rules.

Although His Majesty Travis has gone into hiding, Luscania has remained.

This forces those guys to use the rules as an excuse.

If it's just about playing the game of power, Yuri isn't afraid of anyone.

The only problem is Al-Saran.

This court high priest clearly had no hostility towards them, taught them everything without any compromise, and handed over the work without any problems, but he just kept dragging his feet.

Even though he knew Yuri had a photographic memory and could execute the sequence of operations flawlessly, Alzalan still managed to drag out the handover of each task for three days under the guise of testing.

This is more troublesome than open provocation.

Even Yuri couldn't find a solution... With their strength, they certainly couldn't eliminate everyone like His Majesty Travis did back then, sweeping away fallen leaves in the autumn wind.

Deal with those who turn against you, and while winning over those who are on your side, try to bring the wavering ones closer to you.

We absolutely cannot push them, who are already mentally confused, to the enemy's side.

Especially in Al-Saran.

His performance can inspire many people, especially magic-based professionals who have little interest in the succession of the throne.

Al-Saran has been following in His Majesty Travis's footsteps for far too long.

So long that most people have gotten used to following his path.

Because of Al-Saran's attitude, many people felt that His Majesty Travis was still observing the situation.

It's not that they fully approve of Leon.

Although the royal scholars firmly stood on Leon's side... after all, Yuri's existence had elevated the status of scholars to the same level as mages.

Now that Scroll Mountain has been blown up, scholars need a new pillar of support. Yuri's arrival has invigorated these great scholars.

Although it's unreliable, at least it works.

At least Leon and Yuri now have the support of max-level professionals.

At least I don't have to ask Luscania for help with every little thing anymore.

“Observe for a while, and once you’re sure Alsalan isn’t experiencing any negative emotions, don’t overthink it. Just accept it.” Leon thought for a moment and immediately made a decision. “No matter how many doubts you have, don’t worry about them for now.”

Get the benefits first, then worry about the rest.

His Majesty the King has given us a fairly generous amount of time, but... we still need to take control of the palace as soon as possible.

Moreover, while that person didn't openly interfere, they secretly provided a lot of help.

Maybe he just asked someone for a favor.

Archmage Arsalan probably only made a superficial promise to others, and apart from stalling for time, he did not do anything else abnormal.

What does it matter if we delay?

It's just a matter of saving face.

Who would dare to do anything underhanded after I move into the palace... His Majesty Travis is just away, not that he's never coming back.

However, these are all issues of interest.

We have enough time, and even more patience.

What has Milian been up to lately?

Still randomly traveling around the palace?

“He’s trying to avoid his unlucky relatives,” Seven laughed. “He doesn’t even know where he’ll be next.”

“That’s good.” Yuri said expressionlessly. “His antics will keep the people in the palace from making casual contact.”

After all, Milian is an extremely fast swordsman, and the result of his rapid movement is that he could appear anywhere at any time.

He even went into Luscania's dragon's lair.

Although he was kicked out.

However, his complete lack of injury led some to misunderstand his strength.

After all, he's a notoriously fragile swordsman.

Outsiders could never guess that the reason he wasn't punished by Luscania was because Miriam had visited Maple Valley before leaving the North.

Although she only received a gentle rejection from Valera, she did receive a gift-giving task from Bolaños.

Although Luscania disliked Miriam's sudden intrusion into her residence, she only gave him a hollow kick because of the large, heavy box filled with ore and fish.

It looks like it flew a long way and crashed hard.

In reality, it's just that the sound, light, and audio effects are spectacular.

Milian himself did not bear any of the force.

This was a great help.

At least those with ulterior motives only dare to meet and communicate in secret rooms... But even if Al-Saran is slow in transferring authority, it is still a transfer.

Yuri also seized the opportunity to gather a number of clues.

"And you?" Leon asked in a low voice. "Yuri, if needed, I can be that ruthless person."

As long as you're willing to let go.

“There’s no such thing as being willing or unwilling to part with something,” Yuri said calmly. “It’s just that there’s no need to make the nobles worry that we’ll settle old scores.”

Nobles are masters of taking advantage of others' misfortunes.

When Leon's father left him, he left him more than just some fixed assets.

They have shops, workshops, and manors, and they're all doing quite well.

But Leon, having been defeated in the internal power struggles of the royal family and forced to flee, naturally had no way to protect these things that needed to be managed.

Although no one dared to take away those properties, well... that was all that was left.

Leon is even having trouble finding a taxi.

Their years of poverty were not only due to their incorrigible aristocratic temperament and their bad habit of not valuing money, but also because... the assets that could have supported their lifestyle were completely unusable.

This, of course, includes Yuri's assets.

As the talented and promising second son, Yuri's father began gradually placing a portion of the family fortune into his name before he came of age.

This was a necessary expense for all noble families, and even if Yuri's older brother was unhappy, he would pretend to be very willing.

Following in the footsteps of a clearly promising member of the royal family, Yuri is bound to reach level 10 or higher.

For ordinary nobles, magic-based professionals of level 10 or above are extremely valuable.

If they can persuade Yuri to agree to a marriage alliance, they could even marry the daughters of princes!
But all this warmth and tenderness came to an end with Leon's departure.

In particular, Yuri had no intention of leaving Leon's side at all.

Although those assets nominally belonged to Yuri, they were actually managed by family members.

How could we possibly hand over the profits to this rebellious son who dares to defy the family's will?
On the day Leon and Yuri returned to the ranks of the nobility, his family did try to do something... by sending him the rent they had paid for all those years.

Honestly, it's better to do nothing.

Those shops are still operating under Yuri's name!
But Yuri didn't say anything; he and Leon weren't completely unaware of Travis's arrangements.

He'll always have his turn to speak.
