Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 833 I have quite a background!

Lori hugged her light, silky quilt, staring blankly at the water mirror in front of her.

Although the hall was empty, he still did not let Huo Yu leave.

Sure enough, about four hours later, Asmodeus reappeared in the hall.

He surveyed the area with a sharp gaze.

Then he frowned and disappeared.

It was so abrupt, so obvious it made people feel uneasy.

So, even though Lori's mind was a jumbled mess, she still kept Huoyu silent.

The Night Owl is a creature with a strong sense of gaze.

As long as Armies and his family remained, Huoyu existed in that form.

When Armes and the others suddenly jumped through space to escape, Night Owl Ya Kong naturally followed suit.

There is a very obvious spatial fluctuation.

Tiamat should have noticed this.

But how could Lowry possibly give up on the pursuit of the truth so easily?
These contracted creatures, known as Living Feathers, live by relying on the spiritual power of a mage.

Not only can their partners switch positions and exchange souls in an instant, but Lori, the master, can also directly descend into the body of a living feather at any time.

Therefore, he can certainly provide Huoyu with his spiritual power.

Most importantly, Night Owl Void is just a higher-level form of Living Feather, not their only one.

The living feathers are transformed into feathered creatures, not birds.

The most powerful living feathers can even disguise themselves as angels!
Although Lowry and his companion don't yet possess such great abilities, if Lowry's mental power is added, they can transform into feathered serpents.

It is not the inferior feathered serpent that feeds on small animals and evil humans, but a golden feathered serpent influenced by the second feathered serpent king, Quarter, who was known as the 'Feathered Dragon' and the 'Feathered One'.

The high-ranking feathered serpent's ability to materialize into vapor form and move freely in all environments unaffected by any magical effects is enhanced incomparably by this special divine bloodline.

Wherever there is wind, the feathered serpent, hidden in the wind, will never be discovered.

This has been verified by Shar and Serene, and even by AO.

There is absolutely no doubt about it.

In reality, it is Quart, the feathered serpent god, and has little to do with dragons, even though his appearance is very similar to a giant golden dragon.

But, looking at that golden body supported by feathers... anyone with eyes could tell that it wasn't.

However, the Maztec continent was originally a continent of original faith formed under the will of AO. Although Quart is known as the source of kindness and health, it is not immune to some influences.

When the slave traders of Faerûn invaded, he, who opposed self-sacrifice, inexplicably lost his source of faith and then completely disappeared.

AO does this kind of thing.

His arrogance will naturally be rewarded accordingly.

Although Quart wasn't a true dragon, the nine-faced dragon god Aio saved him at his most dangerous moment.

And they even went so far as to convert it into their own ethnicity.

For him, who created dragons whenever he had nothing better to do, this was really nothing.

But for Quarter, that was his most sacred salvation.

Therefore, even though he was somehow placed into the incongruous lineage of magical dragons by Aio, he was full of goodwill towards all the little dragons who were interested in his power.

Of course, he wasn't completely without any requirements.

Quart can teach most skills to any eager-to-learn dragon.

However, he was only willing to teach divine skills to good dragons.

Lowry's advantage in this regard is extremely obvious.

Although he himself did not consider himself very kind, and gave completely negative answers to some of Quarter's questions, his angelic bloodline was simply too advantageous.

It's impossible for Quart to be a god-like being hanging on the Tree of Inheritance every day to deal with children; those are just mechanical avatars he had set up beforehand to handle the problems.

He knew very well that dragons had all sorts of strange personalities, and some of the younger dragons would have a rebellious streak towards certain issues.

Therefore, in attribute judgment, the answer to the question and his perception each account for fifty percent.

Most importantly, Quarter himself strongly disliked the kind of pointless kindness that required sacrificing one's own interests, or even one's own life, for the sake of others.

He endorsed the will to fight to the death for the world, for the country, for his family, and for his own destiny.

However, some sacrifices that only move oneself are, in Quarter's eyes, considered sickness.

Lowry fit his personality in this respect and ultimately passed the test.

His living feather thus received a feather from Quarter.

After being divided up, they naturally transformed into pure golden feathered serpents.

In other places, Lowry might not have dared to take such a risk.

But this is a noisy, empty tunnel.

The stronghold of the wind element.

As expected, neither Asmodeus nor Enlil noticed the live feather in the wind.

Even though the Lord of Hell had sensed the walls countless times, and even though Enlil had probed the entire hall with his lightning.

The live feather continued to hover silently in the whirlwind above the hall.

However, beings of Asmodeus's caliber must possess exceptional intuition.

He might just have a vague feeling that something was wrong, which is why he's been staring at this place so intently. But for the Lord of Hell to personally return to check on things after already leaving... it's too unbelievable.

Isn't this implying that a potential hidden figure has already been here?
It was a clever trick, but it was too obvious to Lowry.

It's alright. For the time being, he doesn't have anything that requires him to expend his mental energy, so he can continue to keep Huo Yu hidden.

After a while, when the explorers who are searching for treasure in the enclosed tunnel feel safe enough, they will come in to search for treasure.

They outnumbered them and were equipped with all sorts of spatial and wind-related artifacts, so Huo Yu's little commotion was nothing compared to theirs.

Asmodeus didn't say anything particularly special... Only those who knew the truth beforehand could discern his preparations for Paradise Mountain.

He didn't keep his public meeting with Herosto a secret at all!
Of course, there are still some instances of deliberate mystification, a mix of truth and falsehood.

Although he didn't make it very obvious, a smart person would think that this collaboration was only aimed at Misca and Hyronis.

Therefore, the Lord of Hell won't keep such a close watch.

He was just habitually on guard against everything.

Having figured out the most troublesome thing, Lowry leaned back gently, burying herself completely in the soft pile of pillows, and sighed wearily.

This also led him to discover one of Huo Yu's weaknesses.

Even with his superior concealment during surveillance, he couldn't guarantee that when Huo Yu tore through space and left, there would be absolutely no sound.

This is not Huoyu's fault.

It's because he's too weak.

Of course, Lowry isn't exactly an adventurous person.

But during Enlil and Tiamat's conversation, he heard something... that was both surprising and all too familiar to him.

Outsiders might not be able to figure it out in a short time, so how could he not understand it?

And then there's that damn truth.

Indeed, a single coincidence may be fate, but multiple coincidences must be a clever arrangement.

He really does have quite a background; his body was a masterpiece created entirely by the Lord of Hell.

The soul... well, it's quite unique.

Protruding!

Damn Asmodeus, may he suffer eternal misfortune!

I wish she could become a loli demon king like in the doujinshi!
Lori's mind kept replaying the pure love stories from next door, imagining all sorts of devilish lolita forms on Asmodeus's face.

There was no way around it; the thought that if Asmodeus's plan were followed, he might fall for Luscania at some point sent chills down Lori's spine.

Is he crazy?

Although many men in fantasy novels take pride in riding dragons both during the day and at night, he really has no interest in it!
Lowry doesn't care about age.

If you live long enough, time becomes a relative issue.

But what about the volume?
What about logic?
Lowry frowned slightly, recalling the past over and over in her mind.

Then it suddenly occurred to him that Luscania had always said that he smelled very good when he was a child.

I haven't mentioned it much since I became an adult.

Lily and the others only said that his scent made Long feel safe and secure.

He originally thought it was because he was awakening the bloodline of the humanoid dragon.

But there is another possibility: the angelic bloodline, which gradually strengthens during the awakening process, eliminates some hidden dangers in the soul.

For example, there's Cebefia's natural allure, and Montes's dimwit and unbelievably soft-hearted nature.

Although many people believe that the Montes family's single-mindedness, stubbornness, and lack of tolerance and humility stem from the rhinoceros.

But the only one who really messed up his family was Lowry's unfortunate father.

Sebefia's devilish nature likely amplified Montes's character flaws.

After all, Montes had his share of disputes over his previous marriages, and he had a lot of children, all of whom were very competitive, but he always managed to keep it within a reasonable range.

Nobody's stupid; everyone knows they can't afford to ruin their own family.

However, Lowry's two brothers seemed completely oblivious to this, and were having a great time with the cult.

Not to mention what happened in Gezar.

Count Gezar was truly being used so thoroughly that he didn't even know who he was working for.

Fortunately, although the fate arranged by the other party was terrible, it was so meticulous and full of too many coincidences that it attracted the attention of others.

For example, Uronus.

The son of Gezar and Montes, whose destiny was predetermined, will inevitably have a flawed soul.

It's perfect for him since he only has one.

For example, the artifacts of the Mechanical Realm.

He needs a child who grows up in a complex environment, preferably one where he has no relatives and only himself to rule the world... If the family is too harmonious and the parents are too loving, how can he replace Lowry without making a sound when he grows up?
Even if the difference is small, someone who truly loves their child will notice it.

Of course, he could also choose a body that is naturally without parents.

But if he did that, wouldn't he be at a huge loss?
If he replaces Lowry before he comes of age, he really has a chance to become the Earl of the North.

The neighboring kingdom is the Ice Kingdom, which will inevitably participate in the great struggle of the future!
How attractive are ready-made children with certain soul flaws!
Therefore, through layers of added requirements, it finally became the Lowry we know today.

Tsk~ This is the fate of conspirators.
