Dear Broom Knight

Although Lady Agreus wasn't as exquisitely perfect as Natalie, her eyebrows, one higher than the other, and her slightly wide nose always gave her a unique, rebellious air.

Yet, with her black hair and blue eyes, refined and elegant, she appeared very vibrant, full of character, with a touch of naivete in her alluring nobility, bright and cunning.

Coupled with the confidence and pride that came with being a Grand Knight, she inspired a desire for reverence.

Ceska always felt that if she could possess even a tenth of Lady Agreus' qualities in the future, it would be her honor.

This was also why she had always been blind to Lowry's beauty... Why did he have to have purple eyes!

If Lowry had blue eyes like Lady Agreus, like those of a black cat, Ceska felt that her mother's terrible ideas might not be so impossible to consider.

But she vaguely heard that the daughters of men with purple eyes would also have purple eyes.

Then Lowry would be completely worthless to her.

So, even though she was dazed for two seconds under the starlight, Ceska quickly regained her senses: "Baron, as you requested, the members of the Tiger's Fang Adventurer Team have been brought back to the Knights Order's base.

That Alex Dixon wants to see you."

"What does he want?" Lowry asked, propping himself up, intrigued.

"I'm guessing he wants to fight on the city walls," Ceska replied calmly. "It seems he knows that most of those guys outside are here for him."

"Did he reveal any information?"

"The reason why the smugglers are interested in him definitely has nothing to do with His Majesty the King himself," Ceska summarized the little knight's mumbling. "He seems to have sensed that Leon was misleading him about his identity, so, although reluctant, he still made it clear that he couldn't be considered, um, a member of the royal family."

"What does 'um' mean?"

"I think what he denied was the Northern Royal Family," Ceska said hesitantly, "but I'm not sure."

Lowry suddenly sat up: "Did Leon say that Alex was his aunt's only son?"

Ceska nodded solemnly.

"Damn it!" Lowry groaned and fell back down. "Hopefully, we're just overthinking it."

He revealed half an eye from under his arm, asking Ceska expectantly: "When did Valera let them leave?"

"Probably, almost noon."

"Hopefully, it's a good omen." Lowry covered his face with his arm again. "Tell those restless knights that I need to test my city wall's defenses right now, it's not their turn yet, they should all wait obediently!

M... No wonder Leon would rather risk it himself than bring Alex."

"Leon!" Milian rushed back to the Tiger's Fang Adventurer Team's temporary resting place like a whirlwind. "It seems like Lady Agreus's Knights Order is fighting ice hounds in front of us!

Those guys must be crazy! They actually conjured up thousands of ice hounds, aren't they planning to let the neighbors live?"

Although everyone was playing dumb, the reason why the neighboring country was swallowed by the Northern Kingdom without any churches helping to maintain peace was because they had close ties with the Ice Heresy.

But this point is actually not incomprehensible.

If the coldest place on the Northern border is the year-round ice peaks on the towering mountains, then most of the neighboring country is much colder than that.

The reason why the Northern Kingdom used to share this plain with the neighboring country was because the Storm Church was biased.

There was no way around it. The amount of land that could grow food on the opposite side was so small, and the only place where crops could be harvested twice a year under the care of the Goddess of Agriculture was this piece.

But, no matter how much they appease, with the Ice Heretic God obviously getting stronger and stronger, and his control over the ice seal getting higher and higher, the neighboring country finally entered the arms of that 'Ice King' half-covered.

Otherwise, ice hounds, creatures that require a lot of magical materials to create, wouldn't appear in such large numbers.

All thanks to the offerings 'voluntarily' sent by the neighboring country.

But the strongest enemy of this 'Ice King' is not the Lord of Storms, but the White Dragon, who is also known for his ice magic.

Although some people still believe the 'Ice King's' claim that he is the abandoned son of a powerful god and the White Dragon King, born with a natural humanoid form.

After all, whether it's his fluctuating IQ, always teetering on the edge of failing, or his ability to naturally spew ice flames, it's all pretty convincing.

But, it's useless for mortals to say these things.

The real strongest in this world are still those true gods, and the White Dragon.

As long as the White Dragon Queen still determines the world with a single word as in the legends, then some stories can only ever be stories that no one 'believes'.

So, the neighboring country is the eternal enemy of the Northern Kingdom, and reconciliation is impossible.

But even if they gather the strength of the whole country, it would inevitably cost a lot to produce so many ice hounds.

Besides, this is only the part sent to Montes Territory as cannon fodder.

Unless the Ice Heresy has created even stronger magical creatures, so they threw them all out, otherwise the neighbors probably won't even be able to afford white bread for the king to eat.

"Strange, there hasn't been any special news from over there recently!"

Yuri naturally thought of these things too, so he quickly flipped out his scroll book and checked his intelligence pages again.

"Maybe..." Seven looked at his unhurried older brothers and tentatively asked, "Should we just go down and raid the bottom?"

Whether it's waste utilization or the neighbor suddenly going all out with the dogs, wouldn't we know by catching a few back?

Ice hounds are born as adult dogs, it's easy to measure their age.

"That's the Agreus Knights Order," Leon said slowly. "Maybe, they don't want us to help."

As the exclusive knights order of a level 12 Grand Knight, it's normal for them to be a little proud and aloof.

It's really hard for our kind of adventurer team to get a word in.

Milian tilted his head: "Wouldn't this work either?"

He raised his right hand, and the flag of the Living Feather Knights Order instantly unfurled.

"Sometimes, I really think, is it because I'm too irresponsible, so my brothers all live so... carefree?" Leon blinked and lowered his head to ask Yuri, who was still looking at something.

"What are you talking about?" Yuri quickly retorted, "This is called knowing the times is being a hero! Eat whoever's food we're at!

Besides, we're also helping Baron Lowry, to see if there are any problems with his subordinates!"
