Dear Broom Knight

There's no way around it. In Qingfeng Territory, it's not that people without money can't survive, but that they can't bear to watch… It's not that they can't accept such a comfortable life, but that they can't accept only watching others live so comfortably.

Therefore, it's better to sell goods in Hamilton Territory that 'the country doesn't really allow them to bring out, and the Northern Lands can't openly buy,' and then go to the adventure camp in Qingfeng Territory to purchase some exclusive equipment to make money on the Great Ice Mountain.

These things were actually the foundation laid by Leon when he was around… New adventurers certainly don't trust the nobles that much, but they will believe that the leader of the Tiger's Blade, even after becoming a great noble, transforming into a Northern Prince, will still abide by some of the hidden rules of adventurers.

And Isira, with his military background, can actually accept these things.

Compared to the dark sides he had seen before, this underground city under Leon's management can truly be said to be perfect.

He doesn't think he can do better, nor does he expect to be able to do whatever he wants like Qingfeng Territory next door… Such a large adventurer camp doesn't even have a tavern with a gladiatorial flag.

Such control is truly terrifying.

Of course, the most terrifying thing is Mage Lowry's self-control.

He actually disdains the idea of making money while lying down… His adventurer camp is a pure gathering place for professionals, with even apprentices being rare. If he were to open a tavern, he wouldn't even need to put it underground.

If a rare above-ground 'gladiatorial arena' were to appear, you can bet that professionals from around the Northern Lands would come to join in the fun.

Nobles would find it difficult to refuse such a reasonable and legal building… Generally speaking, it's the adventurers who are picky.

Therefore, the Baron of Qingfeng Territory, who receives applications every year but refuses them every year, is truly remarkable.

However, although Isira admires Baron Lowry's firmness, he doesn't intend to do such a noble thing.

He's just an ordinary person who really wants the tax revenue from the underground tavern.

Moreover, he also has his own hobbies, right?

Furthermore, Isira's biggest worry is that after becoming the lord's knight order, his newly promoted knights won't be able to receive the test of blood and fire and won't become true warriors.

But he can't hope for things to happen in the territory just because of this reason.

Therefore, letting the little brats go to the gladiatorial arena for a round during relatively peaceful times is also a good thing.

The underground tavern is no longer a place to prove one's dignity.

Once there are unrelated spectators below the stage, everything on the stage, regardless of the reason, is just a performance.

At most, it just makes people more excited.

Of course, this is just Isira's idea. His knight order hasn't developed to that stage yet.

So… he's still in the wait-and-see phase.

"Papa…" Pearl asked uneasily, wearing simple leather armor and carrying a heavy sword, "How long are we going to stay here?"

"Isn't it good?" Isira retracted his gaze and looked at his daughter sitting beside him, "The fighting is so wonderful!

Some skills I've never even seen before!"

Pearl's biggest problem is that she has too little combat experience, and she doesn't even recognize some skills that aren't too rare.

But Isira can't just grab her and make her experience everything, and there's no need to.

It just so happens that the people currently facing off in the arena are basically from all over the world, and most of them are in the stage of excessively pursuing skills because their strength isn't high enough.

Pearl can learn a lot by watching.

Moreover, it can also allow his daughter, who is a bit lacking in vigilance, to feel the demeanor of female adventurers.

A smoky, alcohol-soaked place where not a single man has ever come to harass Pearl because he's 'drunk'… This is definitely not because the people here are of high quality.

It's not just because he and Pearl look like high-level professionals.

Even at the noble banquets held by him, the earl, there are people who dare to act wildly and urinate!

Even people who have a filter for adventurers can't say that every adventurer is of high quality and has good manners.

The rules that are recognized by everyone are naturally forged with fists.

Isira looked around.

In the tavern seating area, there are many beautiful girls wearing leather clothes with weathered faces, basically all of them are agile and their weapons are always with them.

There are also a few seemingly weak little girls… But it can be seen from the way those waiters have to go around them when passing by that they are not easy to mess with.

Although everyone is smiling, the only one with a clear and transparent look on her face is his Pearl.

Several female adventurers have looked over curiously… Female nobles who can make a name for themselves in the Northern Lands, which is a man's world, are very powerful, but these female adventurers are the most resilient.

This isn't because Isira has any other intentions, but because the world of adventurers is truly cruel and fair.

When accepting tasks, it doesn't distinguish between men, women, old, or young, only success rates.

When looking for good things in places like the Great Ice Mountain, no one will give beautiful women a chance to fight back because they want to 'do something'… What can't you get with money! Why bother looking for trouble in a place where water turns to ice?

Genuine adventurers don't even trust themselves! How could they expose their weakest parts in the most dangerous places?

However, after female adventurers officially advance, some wealthy and powerful men will try to get them to return home… They will definitely marry them properly and hand over the power of the family to them.

Those so-called gentlemen who have fallen from the noble class and can't even marry noble ladies of the knight class, but are unwilling to have children with women without talent, and those nouveaux riches who have jumped from small vendors to big merchants by discovering mineral resources or finding some commercial routes, and need a professional to support their families, are all willing to give sincerely.

Although there are indeed some treacherous people, most of them will respect their wives who bring them a stable life.

The difference that only depends on one's own discernment is something that female adventurers don't care about.

Therefore, in the world of adventurers, there are very few independent female adventurers.

Those in large adventure groups don't have much of a problem. If they don't want to continue living that life of wind, frost, snow, and rain, they can return to the living area of the adventure group and live their own little lives. If they like someone, they can partner up with them, and if not, they can live comfortably on their own.

Those who can become large adventure groups cannot fail to provide their hard-working members with sufficient retirement security.

Even small adventure groups, as long as they can survive to the point of having a fixed residence, can hope for the future.

Only independent adventurers are the most troublesome… Indeed, some people only like to act on their own and only trust themselves, but most of them have no choice.

Talent is the wall.

Small adventure groups don't accept professions that harm their own people when fighting, and professions that must be level 6 or higher to have combat power.

Large adventure groups won't accept people with too little talent, unless they are descendants of their own people.

No matter how good the future is, no one will pay attention if there is no present.

Of course, independent adventurers who can go to the end are truly strong.

If they are female, then they are even stronger… Those who can steadfastly choose their own future amidst so many temptations and dangers, and break through some difficulties and obstacles, are worthy of admiration by anyone.

Among them, there are several whose names even Isira has heard of.

In terms of professional level, they are actually not much different from Pearl.

But Pearl is an unknown noble lady, after all, she has not even participated in a few formal battles, only the level has kept up.

These few are different.

That gentle and weak female scholar, wearing a silver-cyan robe and holding a slender but sparkling staff, once rescued dozens of children from the Ice Dog's Nest of the Ice Church.

Although this was a task issued by a certain lord, basically no adventurers took it.

For adventure groups, that price was too uneconomical.

Independent adventurers could see the value, but the danger… Even Isira couldn't guarantee that he could retreat unscathed.

A level 10 scholar can do it, and indeed has the qualifications to make a name for herself.

There are many such female adventurers in Hamilton's underground tavern… Isira also pondered for a long time before realizing that the Northern Lands have always been more tolerant of women, and after Qingfeng Territory appeared, this tolerance reached a new level.

Every noble hopes that their territory will produce a figure like Valera, and even if not, it's okay to have other female professionals like those in Qingfeng Territory!

Many managers in Qingfeng Territory are women… It's not because Cheska and Valera like to use female staff, but because most of the professionals they could find in their territory at the beginning were strays.

And these strays, due to some traditional reasons, are mostly women.
