Dear Broom Knight

#149 - The Northern Knights who stayed out of the matter

Clayton instantly gave up thinking about why Alex was entangled with the Ice Snow Saintess… The Earth Bishop truly didn't believe that Alex, who had just been plotting against Valera, would suddenly rekindle the flames of love.

But compared to what path the Icewind Nation chose to take, he was more concerned with what the Dark Night Church wanted to do.

In the end, no matter how the Icewind Nation struggled, it was just struggling.

Their path had been strangled a thousand years ago.

It seemed like there were countless forks in the road ahead to choose from, but in reality, no matter which path they took, they could only go to the same destination.

At best, they would refuse to choose the wide road and insist on taking a desperate path that was exhausting, painful, and could lead to death at any time.

Clayton was definitely more concerned about whether the church next door had any ideas about their Earth Church.

Clayton didn't actually think that his church was suitable to participate in the Icewind Nation's affairs so early.

When the external enemies were not strong enough, the most dangerous enemies of their Earth Church were often their own people.

He really, really didn't want to bite the dust as soon as he stepped into the Icewind Nation.

Tsk~ If the Dark Night Church had any thoughts, it didn't seem so bad.

Although the ground was still covered with ice and snow, some clods of earth and small vines would occasionally appear to trip the Ice Dog King's frantically churning hind claws.

Especially when that huge dog had a persistent target, Clayton used his divine magic even more easily.

Anyway, he didn't have to be a meat shield anymore.

Lowry in the sky also noticed something was wrong on the battlefield.

Although the two sides were fighting fiercely, and Alex's subordinates were very brave, where were the Great Knights of the Northern Border Army?

Lowry circled in the sky and flew directly to the garrison camp located in the crevice of the cliff.

Originally, that place should have been a secret… Although everyone knew it, as long as they weren't publicly invited, everyone could only pretend they didn't know.

However, it had just been blown up!

There was no need to pretend to be stupid anymore.

After a few turns, Lowry flew to the place. In fact, this place was quite close to his territory, but it used a visual blind spot and added some things in certain places, forming an effect similar to a natural maze.

Even in the sky, if you didn't fly to a certain point, you couldn't see the big crack at all.

Not to mention the garrison camp wrapped in layers of defense arrays.

In fact, this place was indeed top-secret a long time ago.

But no secret can withstand time. The Great Cliff is only so big, and a garrison that hasn't changed for decades must be exposed, not to mention that this place existed before the White Dragon King took the throne.

As expected, a large number of ice dogs appeared outside the garrison.

But what was surprising was that the knights in the crack camp that had been blown open were only mid-level knights killing dogs in full armor. The high-level knights, and those Great Knights, seemed to be repairing the camp.

Lowry looked at it in disbelief and couldn't help but rub his eyes with his fingers… Of course, the most important thing was to cast a spell to see through illusions to confirm that everything in front of him was real.

What's going on?

Did Ruth Carnia suddenly fall asleep, and the White Dragon King didn't dare to leave the sleeping White Dragon, lest the palace burn down by accident?

Otherwise, Lowry really couldn't understand why the White Dragon King, who had planned for so long and sent his daughter, grandson, and grandson to the altar, would suddenly change his mind.

But the garrison knights obviously didn't want to meddle in other people's business… They looked like they just wanted to train their troops, and what did the death of people in neighboring countries have to do with them.

What's wrong again?

Lowry knew a lot, far more than a territorial baron should know.

But he also didn't know a lot, especially those gray unspoken rules that had disappeared into the wind.

Count Montes was indeed not a good husband or a good father, but he was still a qualified person.

At least he was a man willing to take responsibility for himself.

Moreover, he was just not that good to Aglis and her son.

Count Montes really gave everything to the wife he sincerely married at the beginning and to the children who were born in his expectation.

If he hadn't been a bit greedy later, Lady Aglis and Lowry wouldn't have felt disgusted with him because of his coldness.

After all, as an ally, this guy was a qualified ally… As for having small thoughts, allies who were honest and didn't think about anything would have been hanged on the wall long ago.

Even vassals couldn't be honest!

And the members of the Montes family, including those lords with different thoughts on the northern border, would at most ignore the family, but would not betray the family.

After all, the people of the Northern Territory had just emerged from the bloody storm not long ago. Even if people's hearts had begun to become frivolous, they would not change the concepts formed during the war too quickly.

The men still knew how to respect the hostess in the family who had put in their efforts and hard work.

Therefore, Aglis, who was responsible for teaching him some secret rules when Lowry didn't encounter those too ugly things, would not specifically mention them.

Anyway, that kind of thing rarely happened in the Northern Kingdom after the White Dragon King took the throne… The White Dragon King's father didn't have the gene for longevity, but as the son of the Queen, he had to rely on his own strength to regain the throne that should have belonged to him.

Even though he should have been considered the second heir to the throne, he was the one at the back of the line. Even after the first heir died inexplicably, no one thought he could take the throne, of course, there were special reasons.

The reason was that a certain white moonlight didn't step on the right spot. After finally outliving the former queen, she failed to win over her current husband at a critical moment. Seeing that the king was forced by the nobles to marry a little girl he didn't like at all.

The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ say ⊥ in ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥ ⊥ book ⊥ ⊥ bar ⊥ ⊥ first ⊥ hair!

Even after she became the third queen and tried to eliminate the presence of the second queen, she couldn't eliminate the existence of the White Dragon King in the court of the first queen.

It can only be said that the former king really loved her. Even though she was already a middle-aged woman and had wrinkles on her face, he still overcame all difficulties to marry her.

And he didn't hesitate to list several children older than the White Dragon King born by the second queen before the White Dragon King.

But his love for her was also limited. At least, when the king still had control, the children left by the two proper queens survived.

They didn't live that well, but they were still alive.

Especially the first heir to the throne.

Although the nobles finally couldn't resist the former king letting that woman take the throne, the only reason they were willing to compromise was that those princes with questionable identities could not become kings.

Remarriage for widows has never been a problem for nobles, as long as both parties are willing.

But how can the person sitting on the throne have had other surnames?

However, how could the white moonlight, who had been pampered at will, accept the reality that she was still busy in the end?

Under the old king's pampering and protection, she, who had a family power that was not weak in the first place, had already been able to do those big things that could only be supported by the old king.

Only the old king still felt that he was the one who controlled everything.

So, the eldest prince was gone when the old king fell ill for the first time because of old age.

However, no one felt that the old guy was innocent… He was just sick, not unconscious, how could he not know anything?

But what was interesting was that the white moonlight's own children began to fight. The son she gave birth to after she took the throne felt that he had a more legitimate right to inherit than the previous brothers with unknown identities.

And the previous ones were also dissatisfied with each other… None of them came from the right path, who was lower than whom?

Therefore, the capital of the Northern Territory became so messy in those years.

After the White Dragon King took the throne, although he seemed to be very tolerant of those brothers.

But after one war after another launched by those princes, the fact that only the White Dragon King and the descendants of his deceased eldest brother were left in the Northern Royal Family was undeniable.

Even if the nobles were stubborn, they would not gamble their lives on whether His Majesty the King would be angered.

Offending the king for the sake of fighting for power and profit, although it would be unlucky, at least there was a profit, for the sake of women?

Whether they love or not is just that.

If they really love to death, that's nothing. Women who don't have enough status, at most, have less benefits, and it's not appropriate to marry them back.

Therefore, although the nobles of the Northern Kingdom are still very capable of causing trouble, they have tacitly given up on that most immoral marriage model.

Over time, children like Lowry naturally know nothing about these broken things.

Otherwise, when seeing the entanglements between Alex and the Ice Snow Saintess, and seeing a bit of lingering combat even though they are very sharp, Lowry would not only find it funny.

This is not a trivial matter.

It is very likely to directly change the direction of the country's future plans because it arouses the anger in the White Dragon King's heart.

Those who are older, especially those who have followed the White Dragon King for a long time, know this very well.

For example, that Great Knight who has been scolding and whose strength is comparable to the deputy commander of the Northern Border Army.
