Dear Broom Knight

The castle steward, with a face full of concern, peered out the window, repeatedly uttering words like, 'Oh, oh, oh~' and 'Please be careful~'.

He wasn't worried that Lady Yagris would do anything detrimental to Fabrice.

Everyone knew that the Countess only wanted to leave as soon as possible and have nothing more to do with Montes Castle.

Even during the reconstruction of Montes Castle, Lady Yagris didn't pay attention to the layout of the mistress's room, and chose her own residence in the guest building on the other side of the castle.

Although, according to the standards of a count's castle, this three-story building with more than 50 rooms would also be decorated very luxuriously and comfortably... generally speaking, only guests with special status and a large entourage of servants would be arranged to live here.

However, the fact that Lady Yagris, who still held the title of Countess of Montes, chose to live here instead of in the castle wing that she was originally entitled to occupy, actually proved many things.

From the day the castle was rebuilt, she had regarded herself as a temporary guest here.

The personal maids who had stayed by her side had already packed their belongings, just waiting for Lady Yagris to hand over the last bit of work to Fabrice and quickly pack up and leave.

Of course, Lady Yagris also left behind many ordinary servants who planned to settle down in Montes Castle, most of whom had worked in the right wing... they had been working at the castle during this time.

After all, Lady Yagris didn't need so many people to serve her.

Of course, this was also because the steward had taken the initiative to borrow manpower, but he didn't expect that so many people would want to stay in Montes Castle, and that Lady Yagris would be so tolerant.

The steward didn't think so much at the time, after all, these girls were the trustworthy service personnel he could contact at the fastest speed.

Even if a group of children were quickly selected from the outside, they were still too young and could only be trained for a few years.

Moreover, to be frank, even if they could be used in the future, they might not be more trustworthy than the current batch of girls.

After all, the maids in the left wing and the central area of the castle had either died in the initial turmoil or failed to withstand the subsequent review from the royal palace and the church.

On the contrary, the right wing, which really had a high-level member of the High Tower Church, was basically unscathed.

Pat had always been protective of her own people.

Even the laundry workers there were protected very carefully, and the castle was bombed so many times that even the edges of their skirts weren't damaged.

Of course, those who were determined to find some traces that shouldn't exist in order to add a glorious medal to their own achievements would definitely not let these girls go easily.

But, who told Lady Yagris to be even more protective of her own people!

Even a laundry worker she had never met, as long as she had served her or Lorry in the past, had to be interrogated under her nose.

If the person really didn't have any problems, they wouldn't be greatly affected.

How much could they know?

But you can't say that these maids were very important to Lady Yagris.

Those girls who were really important to her, even if they were worse, wouldn't be without basic combat skills, Pat was very ruthless back then.

Lady Yagris had always been a believer in the idea of 'if you love her, you must give her the strongest training'.

Otherwise, most of her personal maids wouldn't be able to become knights, and even the worst would have basic squire levels... only high-level knight apprentices were qualified to become squires.

Those who didn't have enough levels, even if they followed the knight, could be called 'squires', but that was just a title.

It was impossible to register on the formal roster.

Lady Yagris just couldn't tolerate anyone daring to attack the people around her.

Moreover, she also knew very well that Pat would never leave her any future troubles.

Pat would definitely take away everyone related to the High Tower Church.

If there were really any problems among the people who stayed behind, it would only be enemy forces.

Even if someone wanted to frame her, it wouldn't be possible.

However, she definitely wouldn't care what would happen to the people in other areas.

Even if they really had nothing to do with those cults, what did it matter to her? Over the years, these people had given her no shortage of trouble.

She wasn't a saint, and she couldn't possibly say such terrible saintly words as 'Although she beat and scolded me, she is innocent in this matter after all'.

The people of Montes Castle were actually very clear that this great knight was indeed broad-minded, and not the type to dwell on the past.

But she would never easily help someone who had offended her.

What was admirable was that she wouldn't bother to plot against others for no reason.

Even now.

Therefore, these maids who 'just wanted to stay with their parents' and were from the Montes County would not be squeezed out of this castle, even if they couldn't get any important positions in the future.

If they could marry and have children with those male servants of Count Fabrice who had been thoroughly cleaned up, then their future would be even more secure.

Although it seemed narrow-minded, this was originally the way of survival for ordinary people.

Their own abilities and limits were there, why should they risk it for a vague future?

Even Lady Yagris wouldn't be dissatisfied with their approach.

If they had the wisdom and ability to catch her eye, they wouldn't have withdrawn from Pat's combat training themselves.

According to the rules of Lady Yagris and Pat, regardless of whether you had the talent or not, as long as you were willing, you could join their morning training and evening sparring.

Although, indeed, many girls had persevered, and some were even qualified to enter the Yagris Knights, but some felt that their strength was already enough, and that sleeping and resting were more important.

With that time, she might as well learn more needlework to supplement the family income... no matter how much you train, you're just going to reach the top of the apprenticeship, aren't you?

A proper squire's monthly salary might not be more than the flowers she embroidered in a week: this kind of handicraft from the castle maids has always been expensive.

The newest and most complete novels are first published on 69shu.com!

In this world where various techniques are completely protected, only the castle maids can learn so many handicraft techniques.

They are also very willing to engage in this kind of work.

Although Lady Yagris prefers those girls who are willing to fight with her and have strong willpower, she doesn't think that there is anything wrong with these women who live steadily and are exceptionally simple.

Being able to give your people the right to choose this kind of life is the glory of a lord... in that kind of precarious territory, even those who don't like to fight with weapons don't have the courage to put down the longsword in their hands.

As for Fabrice, he was actually quite willing to use the maids from Lady Yagris's side to do some cleaning and tidying work.

How should I put it... he would eventually marry a noble lady.

The reason why there has been no movement so far is naturally because everyone is watching when he can advance.

And what his state will be after the advancement.

Whether he can, at least, become a pseudo-level 10... that is, the kind of level 10 that is stacked up with the simplest specialties.

Otherwise, the White Dragon King wouldn't be so anxious to find a way to help him detoxify.

Once he passes a certain age, then Fabrice will really not be able to become a pseudo-level 10.

Although the Montes family has given up the important position of border count, their location is still in the border area.

In this place, there has really never been a great noble who hasn't even reached level 10!

And judging from Fabrice's current situation, his situation is not too bad.

Of course, everyone also knows that although Fabrice is a rare noble son with a rather noble bloodline... his mother and grandmother were both from great noble families, he has no maternal support at all.

In the noble system, Fabrice's already not high score will be discounted because of this.

The key is that those who want to extend their hands into the border area don't dare to attack Fabrice, let alone bully him because there is no one behind him.

Lady Yagris's sense of existence is still very high.

She may not help much, but if you extend your hand to her neighbor... it will definitely be cut off with a sword.

In addition, Count Hamilton, who owes the former Count of Montes a favor, is obviously the kind with a conscience.

Therefore, Fabrice, who is neither qualified to be won over nor in danger of being used, has no other hope for the future other than stability.

At this time, it is generally the kind of great noble who loves his daughter more and only wants to give her a stable future where she will never be bullied, who will choose to find the Montes family for a marriage.

It is conceivable that perhaps the future Countess of Montes will not bring any powerful help, but she will definitely be a noble lady who lives very freely.

And, she will definitely be a mistress that Fabrice will respect very much.

In that case, he must completely hand over the daily management of the castle... these maids who leave Lady Yagris definitely do not have the confidence to compete for power and profit with the confidantes of the new Countess.

Thinking of this, the castle steward sighed slightly.

He was a little worried whether he, who had hurriedly walked to this position and was only a few years older than Count Fabrice, could withstand the head maid of the future mistress.
