Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 878 Bloodstained Agnes

"Yo~ Pat!" Anise, dressed in a well-fitting silver-gray silk dress, lazily waved her hand as she sat on the sofa. "It's rare that you would come to my filthy place."

“I need to talk to you.” Pat ignored her evasive answers and replied calmly.

"Hmm~ that lace flower in your hair is so pretty!" Anise said with a smile.

Pat always dressed very neatly, and she liked to braid her hair with thin rope and then put it up. It was rare to see her with a flower braided into her hair.

Layers of lace cascaded down the back of her head, making Pat look like a little girl.

For a moment, it felt as if Anise had been transported back to fifty years ago, to the time when they first met.

Unfortunately, she herself never experienced that youthful exuberance; she could only find it in the faces of others.

“Lorry asked my lord to send this, and I like it very much. I always take it with me wherever I go,” Pat replied curtly, then sat down on the single sofa to the side.

“You know that’s not what I’m asking, right?” Anise glanced at her, then sat up straight. “I have a feeling you’re here to cause me trouble!”

What do you mean by inseparable!

She brought the Ice Domain Lace Flower with her when she went out because she was worried that someone would pull her into an illusion!

But to be so wary of her is a bit excessive.

Although Agnes has indeed wronged many people over the years, she swears that none of them are Gezar girls.

She hadn't even laid a hand on Agris, whom she envied and resented!
That's not because she's afraid of Lori.

The Tower Church's greatest skill is stirring up trouble in secret and sowing discord.

Despite Qingfeng Territory's current glory, with even the gods treating Lori with great courtesy, those in the Church of the Gods who had once tried to harm Lori but were slapped back dozens of times are not so easily forgiven.

As far as Anise knows, there are several people who are secretly making plans.

After all, the sea creature's thing has already been exposed, so it wouldn't be too difficult to make use of it.

In their minds, Lori must be attending the inauguration ceremony of the King of the North... They could just take advantage of the opportunity when someone wanted to cause trouble and strike directly at that guy.

Isn't he just a mage who just reached level 16?
Leaving his castle, which is comparable to a traditional magic tower, there are plenty of powerful beings who can deal with him!
But in the last two days, we seem to have received some unfriendly news... For example, Lori, who has dragon blood, seems to have fallen into a slumber.

Many people know what the dragon's long slumber is all about.

Given Lori's status in the Northern Kingdom and his relationship with the two previous kings, there's really no one who would require him to witness this ceremony.

After all, although his territory was close to the Earl's domain, he was only a baron and not a mandatory observer.

That kid, Lowry, has always had strangely good luck.

This was news that Agnes had just received, so that was her first reaction to Pat approaching her.

Anise smiled tolerantly at Pat: "Don't worry!"

Lowry fell asleep just in time; nothing could work on him.

For the king's enthronement ceremony, every invited baron must be approved by the king.

Once you get to the North, both the previous and current spouses have to accept it.

No matter how much those guys want to do, they can't force the king to disturb a sleeping dragon.

Obstructing someone's path is a crime comparable to the extermination of a race.

The stories of the Gezar bloodline are not yet forgotten.

There are people willing to do things indirectly, but no one is willing to take the lead personally.

But no one can pretend to be stupid and say that this nap is unimportant.

After all, Luscania was right there.

If they were to spout nonsense to their faces, that White Dragon Lady would probably send them to White Dragon Valley to show them what a dragon is.

Pat's eyes flickered slightly... Lowry, is he about to end his adolescence and enter adulthood?
That's great!

She couldn't bring herself to go and join Lowry because she was worried that she and Kyle would bring danger to Lowry.

There will always be people who shout "eradicate evil completely" to clean up some fugitives who, although they have no crimes, have no protection.

After all, back then, those who knelt quickly and accurately were completely immobilized.

How can one demonstrate their courage in eradicating evil?

Naturally, they are exiles who have no foundation or foothold and will not be able to wreak havoc because of their pursuit.

But if Lowry had the abilities of an adult dragon, even if the world's upper limit increased, it would be enough to stop this malice.

Pat felt slightly relieved and said expressionlessly, "I came to give you this."

She took out the scroll, placed it on the coffee table, and pushed it towards Anise.

Anise curiously grabbed the scroll and opened it with great interest... Then, a bloody shadow appeared behind her.

Pat, who had clearly planned to keep his eyes fixed on Anise, suddenly closed his eyes.

She couldn't help but exclaim, "Agnès! What is that? What is that?"

All Pat could remember was that hideous face amidst the endless blood-red hurricane.

This is not the divine duty of the Tower Lord at all!

"It's just bloodline awakening," Agnes said coldly. "Don't make a fuss about it."

It's obvious that scoundrel wouldn't ask me to do the experiments.

Those potions didn't just come from our world, but none of them were good.

I became a Saint of the Tower not only because of my determination for revenge and my madness to stop at nothing, but also because I was a rare success among the test subjects.

Not only did it truly awaken its foreign bloodline, but it also didn't turn into a monster.

“He…” Pat hesitated for a moment, but didn’t say anything more.

Say what?

Is Count Gezar insane?
But he chose Agnes to do this experiment, clearly because Agnes's original attributes were more like his.

Moreover, Agnes's brother was not spared either, and his fate was even worse than Agnes's.

To call him pure evil... is a bit of an insult to the Lord of the Tower.

Even the Lord of Ice, no, I should say the Ice Dog King, isn't this reckless.

Anise pushed the scroll aside and collapsed onto the sofa: "What's the point of showing me this?"
Everyone here has no ill intentions.

Academic research is never a bad thing in itself.

“You have your own thoughts, I don’t care,” Pat said in a low voice, “but I can’t just watch you know nothing.”

“You actually knew, didn’t you?” Anise said quietly, “The Tower Church couldn’t possibly have been uninvolved in these studies.”

Even the fact that Count Gezar knows these things must be related to those guys.

“It has nothing to do with my lord.” Pat knew what Anise was testing and gave an extremely affirmative answer.

She thought for a moment and then added, "But it's probably not a coincidence that our Lord was drawn to Gezar and so easily discovered the involvement of the Storm Church."

The Lord of the Tower certainly wouldn't care about the evil deeds of his followers.

Even if he didn't agree with it, he would just choose to stay on the sidelines and watch how that guy courted death.

Even if someone is not his follower but uses the name of his followers to commit evil deeds, he will not take the initiative to deny it.

But if you ask him, he will give you the truth.

“That’s true. The fact that he dared to use you proves that he didn’t do anything on his own initiative.” Anise seemed to have calmed down, and her tone became more composed.

Pat did not deny the statement.

After all, as the descendant of the Tower Lord, although he might not know everything about her, he could see all of her past when he first received the divine descent.

Including her connection with the Lord of the Tower.

The past, as recorded by the laws, cannot be changed.

Anise said slowly, "Pat, don't trust the Lord of the Tower too much."

“My lord knows everything. His silence is permission,” Pat replied indifferently. “You know what you’re doing.”

I am leaving. "

Anise stared unblinkingly at Pat's departing figure, then suddenly snorted coldly, "At least call me 'Auntie,' and you didn't even bring me a single leaf."

If the Lord of the Tower could summon her for two leaves, her life would be much easier.

"Mom?" A soft voice called out in her ear.

A pretty little girl peeked out from behind the sofa: "Mommy, that's Pat!"

Looking at her curious daughter, Anise smiled lovingly: "What? Curious about her?"

I'll introduce her to you again next time she comes.

Today's business is more important, and she has no interest in socializing.

"Is meeting your mother's daughter also a social obligation?" the little girl asked incredulously.

“I am nothing in front of her, let alone my daughter.” Anise sighed. “My dear daughter, work hard. Perhaps, when my lord returns this time, he will be able to see you.”

The little girl nodded seriously, obediently turned around and left to cultivate, but before leaving, she glanced at the scroll on the coffee table out of the corner of her eye.

Anise ignored her little actions and didn't ask why she was hiding behind her sofa... knowing full well that Pat would definitely find her.

These things were never a problem for her.

She didn't need to say much when she communicated with Pat.

Anise pressed her back against the high back of the sofa, hoping to give herself some support.

She needs to think things through calmly.

Pat does have some privileges in the secret realm, but if she were to appear in the central area, it would be impossible for Agnes not to know.

Just like when she suddenly visited Agnes, people immediately wondered what she was doing there.

Huh~
Anise forced a cold laugh from her throat and gently closed her eyes.

Pat, did he really choose to take that kind of path?
Indeed, it is the only way to leave this evil place openly and honestly.

Moreover, Pat has a place to go.

She always had a place to belong, unlike those evil spirits who had already joined forces with the devil.

That's right, the chances of dying are a bit higher.

So, is it Kyle?

Given the Tower Lord's personality, the only ones most likely to be given special consideration are indeed the two of them.
