Dear Broom Knight
#16 - Knights of the Living Feather
Lori wasn't a particularly astute person, but any otaku who loved playing games, drawing, and surfing the internet would have seen plenty of bizarre novels.
Although most of them didn't seem to carry any malice, and might even have win-win intentions, no one could deny that a person with a game panel lived a life set up by others.
Even if he could eventually break free from everything and control his own destiny, he would still have to complete the endless tasks from the game panel before that.
Especially those temporary tasks that suddenly popped up because his choices didn't meet the requirements.
Clearly feeling that he shouldn't stir up trouble and wanting to turn around and leave, he still had to do things that went against his heart according to the panel's requirements… Lori would absolutely not accept such a thing.
Living was indeed a wonderful thing for him, but he could also choose not to live.
Anyone who enjoyed flying on a tightrope must have a sense in their heart that 'death is just that'.
The cherishing of his current life and the attachment to the love he received could not stop Lori's determination to prioritize freedom above all else.
What worried Lori the most was actually the time he got involved with the White Dragon.
As the White Dragon, the ceiling of combat power in this world, if his panel really had some lurking fellow spying on him, he would definitely not let it go easily.
Even when Lori had exchanged for a dozen pieces of ore, enough to forge him a top-tier armor in this sub-world, there were no temporary tasks, such as sending some fresh fruit from Lori's manor to that particularly gluttonous, not-so-bright King Dragon.
Although the fruits Lori gave the White Dragon tasted good and were expensive, they were all things that existed in this world, and were all bought back from high-end trading houses in the royal capital, at most with some uniquely flavored jams, but they were all things that a good chef could make.
He wasn't stupid.
Their King wasn't as gentle and approachable as he seemed, casually letting things go.
Lori was able to coax the White Dragon so happily entirely thanks to the skills he developed from petting huskies back in the day; food was only brought out to consolidate their relationship after they had established a certain level of friendship.
Children, after all, no matter how good their brains were, would only share their beloved things with their friends.
Therefore, the game panel, which had been quiet until then, gave Lori enough confidence… This thing was obviously damaged, and many functions were incomplete, such as the store that such games inevitably had, especially the consumption of things like diamonds, gems, and ingots, all of which were absent.
That was the essence of this kind of game, something that a proper, complete panel would never lack.
But Lori had already gotten the dragon scales, and it hadn't suddenly opened a recharge interface… The energy reaction of the dragon scales wasn't small at all, so there shouldn't really be any problems.
Therefore, although he still didn't know what this thing was, since it didn't have its own thoughts and there wasn't a manipulator behind it that could jump out at any time, Lori felt that he could still survive.
Moreover, he could live well, live more freely than anyone else~
He was even willing to start leading his servants to exercise!
If Lori could lift a lance 1000 times, then his servants absolutely couldn't lift it 999 times.
Although he wasn't a knight, he could rely on the tasks and achievement points of the Knights Order to skip those previous difficulties.
Even if his knight achievements wouldn't be converted into level achievements later, Lori could still satisfy most of his appetite just by relying on the daily tasks of the Knights Order and those security achievements.
Although the foods opened by level achievements were more exquisite and complex, especially various wines, the Knights Order achievements would still give cooking and brewing recipes of the same level, just a different flavor.
Lori could totally accept it!
So, the current task was to give his Knights Order a proper name?
Lori tilted his head with a serious expression… The types that Gezall and Montes were used to, such as 'Barbarian Armor' or 'Gale', were best avoided.
And then, anything like the cliché 'Valiant' was even more unnecessary.
If someone shouted 'Valiant Light' in the Northern Kingdom, there would be hundreds of Knights Orders turning their heads; who would know which house's warrior you were.
Lori pondered for a long time, but still couldn't think of a suitable name… If he could use Chinese, he would have many, such as 'Kicking the South Mountain Kindergarten'.
However, the scorching gaze behind him, and the panel in front of him that he hadn't dared to easily press 'X' on, made Lori extremely nervous.
He shifted his gaze for a long time, and finally stopped on the game panel.
The achievement reward for the official establishment of the Knights Order was a pair of very special pets.
They were peculiar creatures called 'Living Feathers', composed entirely of brightly colored feathers.
These things were as small as hummingbirds, as large as feathers, and could even speak human languages.
Although these creatures mainly used magic, they were a good thing that Knights Orders dreamed of… As long as one wore a Living Feather feather on their body, they could communicate directly within a certain range.
If there was a pair, then it was even more unnecessary to mention.
Living Feathers were also advanced creatures that could evolve, but only reached the high level could they have children.
The latest novels are first published on 69shu.com!
But these things generally only interacted with mages, after all, they liked feather magic.
Although there were legends of Living Feathers in this world, they were things that happened a long, long time ago… Even in that era, knights could only watch mages waste the excellent talent of Living Feathers, only letting them be messengers.
This pair of Living Feathers was originally in that game.
Although it looked rough, this game was always attentive in strange places… For example, when the Knights Order leader asked the Knights Order members to do something, the secret words were written on a feather.
And this feather came from the pair of Living Feathers given by the Knights Guild when each Knights Order was established.
Lori had originally planned to put this pair of Living Feathers in his virtual manor and not take them out.
After all, this thing would never follow a knight, even a small Living Feather that had just been born and abandoned by its own parents.
However, now, it seemed like he had absolutely no problems.
He, a mage, could even be the Knights Order leader, so what would be wrong with raising a pair of Living Feathers?
Although this thing was rare, there had always been traces of it appearing on high mountains and cliffs.
It was just that few mages had been able to win their favor in recent years.
Lori calmed himself down and entered the words 'Living Feather' on his game panel… in the text version of this world.
'Der' is a Northeast dialect, with very rich meanings. In practical application, it is extremely flexible. It is still relatively difficult to master. But if you use this word well, you can basically graduate from Northeast dialect.
The most basic meaning of this word is as an adjective, referring to a person who is annoying, obnoxious, and bothersome. This is considered the most authentic usage. It is also an outright derogatory term. Example sentence: That so-and-so is very der = That so-and-so is particularly annoying.
Living Feathers are peaceful creatures that will avoid combat whenever possible; if forced to fight, they will defend themselves with bites and claw attacks. Living Feathers can use Feather Magic
Living Feathers tend to dwell in places far from any civilization. They use their magical abilities to create wonders in their homes, making them colorful, musical, safe, and peaceful places. While they prefer solitude, they are not afraid of humans, and will sometimes contact humans to learn about events happening in the outside world. They will offer anecdotes in exchange for brief conversations, but if given a bit of feather magic, they become quite friendly and as informative as possible. These visits are rare and short-lived, as it only takes a short time to satisfy a Living Feather's curiosity about the outside world.
A pair of advanced Living Feathers will sometimes gather together to mate. In a dazzling ritual, they will pluck feathers from each other, shape them into small birds or human figures, and then inject a bit of their own magic into them.
