Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 95: Funeral, the old friends will always come
What people fear is ignorance, and what they fear even more is that the other person knows everything when they are ignorant.

As a vassal of the Living Feather Knights, Leon was well aware of how quickly the little birds living in the osmanthus trees could transmit information.

Although they humans cannot speak bird language, Huoyu, as a magical creature, can!

Moreover, they can speak human language.

Even though the language wasn't that fluent, it was still pretty easy just repeating some bird language words.

Moreover, Leon did not think that the only ones communicating with the two living feathers were the birds.

He believed that the small birds were raised in large numbers on the osmanthus trees because they were suitable as messengers.

It is not because they like to build nests in osmanthus trees that they are regarded as messengers.

Even if Leon doesn't have the brains to analyze so many things, he still has Yuri!
In Yuri's words, Baron Lori is a very cautious person, always feeling that someone wants to harm him.

At that time, Leon could still laugh with Yuri at the little baron's over-vigilance, but now...

Leon thought hard, but couldn't change the status quo: only Lowry was watching him.

Of course, he is not without other means, such as those people of Tiger Blade who remained in Baron Gezar's territory.

But Leon had already decided that once he found the future Earl of Hamilton's castle, he would immediately take Baron Gezar and those who were loyal to them away.

Leaving them there as spies would only hurt Tiger Blade himself.

Besides, Lowry is not his enemy.

Leon just didn't want to be ignorant of his next-door neighbor, but he didn't intend to deal with him.

Touching his dimensional bag, Leon was a little confused: Why did his life suddenly turn into this?
He was just an upright knight saving people in need, how come he has turned into a noble lord with ulterior motives now?

Then he looked at his grandfather.

But Leon soon lost his temper...or maybe he couldn't resist the temptation.

The border earls were not like the nobles of the interior.

For those who pursue the glory of knighthood, the Border Earl is the knight's strongest halo.

Generally speaking, people like Count Montes who resigned from the position of border earl could be directly promoted to marquis and step down in glory.

However, the one who succeeded to the throne was Fabrice, a man who was not even a knight.

How can a serious nobleman not be a formal professional?

That would be ridiculed to death.

Therefore, Count Fabrice Montes, who had no objections, had already given the last honor to this border lord family.

If Lowry takes over, he will definitely have to be promoted to a higher level.

In other words, the result of Count Montes's struggle was that he got a weakening BUFF back for his family.

No wonder he was still unwilling to give up. Even though he was about to die, he still wanted to provoke Lowry, hoping that he would suddenly feel like fighting for power.

There are so many hidden things in Fabrice's question!
Only that kid would really say that because he is young and has not received much education as an heir.

Mrs. Yagris's reply is actually worth pondering... Not only does she know who the butler's successor is, she also knows Count Montes's keepsake.

In other words, if Lowry suddenly wants to grab a position at this moment, he can still do it with the help of his mother.

I don’t know how Fabrice will feel when he recalls everything that happened today decades later, but Leon was deeply shocked.

He really would rather Count Montes favored Alex's lineage until his death.

Even though this is extremely unfair to Lowry, there is at least some beauty in human nature in his preference for him from beginning to end.

Of course, Count Montes still did not take Lowry seriously... If Lowry really regretted it at this stage and tried to seize power from his nephew, he would probably be infamous for eternity.

Why do we have to go around in circles and dig holes in the end?
Look at Mrs. Yagris's reaction!

This great knight is indeed a ruthless character who was able to struggle to live a brilliant life under the clutches of Count Gezar. He not only made Count Montes' embarrassment clear, but also left a future for Fabrice's stupid mind to think about.

Leon shook his head helplessly and secretly reminded himself to remember Count Montes's lesson and not to think that he was the smart one.
-
Although Lady Yagris still resolutely took Lori to the Knights' base outside the castle ruins, she was just pretending.

After all, even though so many things happened, Count Montes died at dusk the next day.

Thanks to the efforts of the new butler, Count Montes' funeral officially began in the early hours of the next day.

Lowry was a little unresponsive at first.

I was a little dazed when I was assigned to the second seat to greet guests.

Fortunately, the people who came to the funeral were also confused, so everyone just went about it and there was no greeting at all.

But if you think about it, you will know that the people who came overnight after receiving the notice were not giving face to the new Count Fabrice, but to His Majesty the King who had not left until now. The friendship between the former Count Montes and His Majesty the King is there, and the nobles definitely do not want to leave a bad impression on His Majesty the King because of such a small matter.

So, basically everyone who could make it came.

Including the two deputy commanders of the border army...these are the big guys directly appointed by the king, two level 16 knights.

The title of Count Montes is just a title.

Of course, if he could advance to level 16, it would not be impossible for that to become a reality.

However, today, the Montes family no longer has even this false reputation.

The two tall, strong, mighty and domineering knights seemed a little at a loss.

Fortunately, Leon's identity allows him to face the two deputy commanders calmly.

Lori tilted his head and glanced at Leon and the others who were chatting smoothly in the guest seats on the other side.

"You don't seem to care, Mr. Lori Montes." A clear girl's voice sounded in his ears.

Lori turned his head in surprise... Of course he knew that someone was coming behind him, but he didn't expect that someone would talk to him, a useless person who stayed out of the matter and had separated from the family long ago, about such a serious issue.

She was a lovely and pretty girl, wearing a black long skirt with dark green patterns embroidered on the hem. Her seemingly childish face was adorned with a pair of large green jade eyes that could be described as "taking up one-third of her face."

However, this is mainly because her nose and mouth are quite small and delicate.

Lowry, who had drawn a large number of similar images of girls, had countless names flashing through his mind in an instant.

The purple eyes also began to waver.

However, the first words out of Lori's mouth were: "This is the family seat, you've gone to the wrong place, Miss."

The little girl pouted in dissatisfaction and pointed at her big eyes angrily: "Can't you see that I am a Gezar? What's wrong with me sitting here?"

Seeing her very Agris look, Lori suddenly lost the desire to speak and answered without interest, "I remember my mother is an only child.

The seats for distant relatives are located after the third row, so hurry over there.

You are disturbing me."

TMD!

Lori couldn't help but curse in his heart, who on earth was so uncultured to bring a girl like this to attract his attention!
Do you think he has an Oedipus complex?

Lowry never expected that he would react so quickly, it was all because of his rich theoretical experience.

Moreover, as a serious and mature man, he would never consider girls as objects of affection.

This is for the 12-year-old boy who is famous for being naughty, famous for loving his mother, and rebellious and crazy.

Rather than an old boy who has experienced many things, seen all the beauties in the world, and has learned to appreciate mature beauty.

Like my mother, for an adult, this is indeed a disgusting operation.

But for the little boy, it is indeed easy to attract his attention... Normally, they are young and inexperienced and will only be curious about "I've seen this sister before".

Mrs. Yagris, who was standing in the corner and talking to an "acquaintance", glanced at Lowry and smiled slightly... Her son was always so surprising.

"Yage, what are you going to do in the future?" The woman wearing a black long dress with a very tight waist and a full set of pearl jewelry held Mrs. Yagris's hand and asked sadly.

"Hmm?" Yagris asked in confusion, "What should we do?
Does it make any difference to me whether Nascimento is alive or dead?

I don’t need him to live.”

She pulled her hand out and whispered, "Don't worry about these unnecessary things.

Although I really want to spend the rest of my life in Lori's castle, but for a short period of time, I am still the supreme military leader of Montes Territory, and I still have a lot of things to do!
But cousin, why are you here at Nascimento's funeral?
I remember that you were married to a certain earl of the court?

Such a faraway place...So, you were planning to come to find me anyway?"

The woman clenched her silk handkerchief awkwardly and replied in a low voice: "I was out with my cousin and happened to be nearby, so I came to take a look.

Unexpectedly, I ran into…"

"Cousin?" Madam Yagris tilted her head and glanced at the unhappy little girl who walked to the back area, "The Gezar family is now the next generation, right?
Where did the one who is younger than Lowry come from?"

Her cousin froze, her voice shrill, "That's my daughter!"

"Ah? It's rare for a girl from the Gezar family to give birth to such a Gezar child!" Mrs. Yagris said nonchalantly, "Then, what about your cousin?"

"She was too embarrassed to come here." The cousin tried to suppress her anger and said as casually as possible, "In fact, she should be called your cousin."
