Bolvar was an extremely principled and strong-willed man. It was true that he was pained by the depravity of the nobles, but he was a knight loyal to the king first and a noble second.
He clenched his teeth and said, "As long as you have evidence, I will support you even if you have to wipe out all the nobles in Stormwind City."
Duque, on the other hand, became relaxed. "There's no rush! Compared to wiping out the vermin in the country, don't you think that William is more important? "
Bolvar's eyes immediately lit up. He pounced on Duque like a hungry tiger pouncing on its prey, grabbing Duque's arms tightly. "You know where His Majesty's soul is?!"
William's disappearance was the biggest stain on Bolvar's record as regent. It was the deepest humiliation! From the time William disappeared to the time he was found, he had become an idiot. Bolvar's heart was constantly tormented by guilt.
The late king had handed William over to Lothar before handing him over to him. He had always been strict with himself and scrupulously abided by his duties as regent. Who would have thought that something like this would happen? If not for the fact that he had to support the country, Bolvar would have committed suicide long ago.
Now that Duque had suddenly mentioned William's whereabouts, how could Bolvar not be agitated?!
"Coincidentally, when I returned from the river of time, I saw some fragments of William's future. Coincidentally, I returned from the new main city of the Elves, Teldrassil, which was not far from that place. I did my best to confirm William's safety. He had lost his memory, but his body was in good condition. "
"Wait! You confirmed that it wasn't His Majesty's soul … "Bolvar was shocked." Then could it be that the His Majesty beside us is a fake?! "
"No! He's real too. William was unfortunate enough to be split into two by the evil magic of a certain existence. The cowardly and lazy person in the hall was him. The William on the Kalimdor Continent was also him. "
Bolvar opened his mouth wide, stunned by this strange news. "Why didn't you say so earlier?"
After entering the room, Duque had already set up a magic barrier to prevent eavesdropping, but he still made a shushing gesture. "If I say that, won't the one lurking among the nobles realize that I've seen through everything?"
"Who the hell is that guy?!" Bolvar gnashed his teeth. To think that a mysterious and powerful enemy had infiltrated right under his nose. This was definitely a dereliction of duty on his part.
Duque patted Bolvar on the shoulder. "Brother, your acting is too bad. I can't tell you, but you can rest assured and leave that guy to me."
"I believe you! I'll leave the domestic affairs to you. I'll personally lead the troops to fetch the other Emperor back! " At this moment, Bolvar was like a fanatic who was obsessed with Duque. His eyes were filled with stars.
Duque also felt that he had gone overboard, but with Nozdormu's endorsement, no one could expose him. To be honest, even he himself felt that this statement was a little ridiculous, but Bolvar believed it 100%!
"Wait! William is not in danger. If you bring him back now, you'll only ruin his training. "
"You said … training?"
"Yes! Training! A hellish training. This is what William lacks. William is not bad, but the so-called not bad is only the standard of a mediocre king. He's not a wise king, and he's not good enough to carry the banner of the Alliance. Andoine and I have always had high hopes for William because he has the talent. "
"Talent …?"
Duque raised his head and looked at the ceiling. It was as if his gaze had pierced through the void and reached the river of history. There, the two ancestors, Laing and Andoine, were smiling at him.
"I've always believed that talent determines the height a person can reach. To reach this height, hard training is essential. William has the talent to become the leader of the Alliance, but his youth was too smooth. "
"Too smooth …" Bolvar's gaze was a little lost.
"Think about it. The current chief of the tribe, Sal, has a noble background, but he spent his entire childhood and adolescence as a slave gladiator in the arena. He has to face life and death battles almost every day. On the other hand, he has a real understanding of human life, society, and culture. He has knowledge and wisdom that far exceeds the level of the Orcs. Furthermore, the former chief of the tribe, Orgrim, has been secretly teaching him and imparting the tribe's spirit. That's why the current wise and outstanding chief of the tribe, Thrall, was born. "
Bolvar was silent.
Duque was right. Compared to Thrall, who had gone through hardships and tribulations, William's life had been too smooth before he turned 20. At that time, King Laing had not been assassinated. Even though he had suffered the pain of the destruction of his country, he had Duque's support for internal affairs, Andoine's support for external affairs, and Laing's protection and guidance.
William, who had not truly experienced life and death, was only a little better than a flower in a greenhouse.
As a loyal subject, Bolvar was more eager than anyone to see his lord's growth and metamorphosis.
"Alright, Duque, you've convinced me. But first, I have to ensure His Majesty's safety. "
"Sure, but I won't allow you to go, not even the royal knights."
"Why?" Bolvar roared.
"Please, that place is not for Holy Knights. The Holy Light on your bodies is even more dazzling than a lighthouse in the night. Even if you send ordinary knights there. Those who only think of justice and loyalty will easily see the world as black and white, and mess things up. "
Bolvar understood Duque's meaning. "Alright! I'll let MI7 arrange for an elite team of Rangers to go. "
Duque nodded in satisfaction.
Coming out of the secret room, Duque sat in his personal carriage. The two important subjects, Reginald and Edwin, as well as the two maids, Vanessa and Solarian, were already waiting there.
As a Grand Duke, he still had to have the necessary extravagance. The carriage was very large, and each side was enough for one person to lie down comfortably. There were also many protective spells and anti-eavesdropping spells.
Sitting opposite him, Edwin van Cleef was the first to bow his head and admit his mistake. "I'm sorry, my Lord. I didn't even know that a powerful enemy had infiltrated the kingdom. It's my fault! "
"Haha! Do you know who she is now? "
"Her?" Edwin immediately reacted, even though he was not absolutely sure. "Master, are you talking about Countess Anristo?"
Duque revealed a mysterious smile. "Edwin, do you still remember Lord Presto?"
In the carriage, the expressions of the other four people froze. Lord Presto, this name was not unfamiliar at all. Even Solarian, who was far away in Cuel Salas, had heard of it. The fallen Ancient Guardian, Nesario, had once pretended to be a human lord and infiltrated the Alliance. He almost married Princess Kalia and was crowned King of Alterac.
