William had completely matured.
As he grew older and had more battle experience, he was the majestic and authoritative King of Stormwind in front of almost everyone.
In the eyes of the people and soldiers, William's bravery and achievements had completely surpassed that of his father, Laing. In many battles, William had proven his strength and ability to command troops.
At the same time, because the Marcus Family supported the economy of Stormwind, a certain titular duke who had environmental awareness and modern economic knowledge made the kingdom truly prosperous.
These two points made everyone have a unanimous evaluation of William — a Holy King that only appeared once in a thousand years.
Regardless of whether he was a Holy King or not, the relationship between William and Duque was rather complicated.
In terms of seniority, Duque was of the same generation as William's father and Uncle Anduin Lothar, whom he admired the most. Duque was indeed active before he became a minor. Even though Duque was only seven or eight years older than him, which was not even half a generation, William still had to call Duque uncle.
In terms of status in the mortal world, William was a king, while Duque still had the title of Grand Duke of Stormwind. The problem was that no one would mention this title again. The queens of the four kingdoms were all going to marry Duque at the same time. How could they come to Stormwind to be duchesses?
Sorry, the pond was too small to hold so many big fish!
In terms of power in the kingdom, Duque was not only "outstanding", but also extremely powerful. Think about it. If it were a normal king, he would have a duke who was a demigod, a bunch of demigods, and hundreds of thousands of troops — an army of millions of foreign races, including insects, nagas, murlocs, and so on.
How could a king sleep well?
In the past, Laing had thought of separating from Duque, and William had once thought that it might be a good thing. Now that the Alliance's economy was integrated, how could they be separated so easily?
The Marcus Family's territory, or in other words, its jurisdiction included the East Elven Forest, the East Twilight Forest, the Redridge Mountain, the Swamp of Sorrow, and the Headwind Path. Many lands that were once considered barren were now producing large amounts of minerals, which were the mainstays of Stormwind's industry.
If the Marcus Family were to be separated, then how would they go to the Watch Castle in the cursed land?
Most importantly, without Duque, Stormwind would no longer be the leader of the Alliance. To be the boss of such a strong organization like the Alliance, there were so many benefits.
Moreover, Duque himself was an immortal demigod! Not only him, but even Queen Sylvanas was a demigod. Perhaps Jaina would also embark on the path of demigods in the future. Did he really have to offend a whole family of demigods?
After thinking about it, William and his courtiers came to a conclusion — let's just make do with it. If it was appropriate, he could simply merge the Wuryne Family and the Marcus Family through marriage.
The poor little prince Anduin Wuryne still didn't know that his father had already plotted to make him a bachelor dog until Innilis Marcus grew up …
Originally, William had always been very conflicted when he met Duque. In public, William would call Duque "Commander-in-Chief", and when there were no outsiders, he would call him "Duque". As for Duque calling him "William", he was also happy to accept it.
But now that he was a newbie to Duque and was ordered to do the task of running errands and killing small monsters, William was in a bind.
Yet, Duque still had his lifeline, because that was his Goldryn, which was also Gorosh!
William had inherited Laing's terrible bloodline, which was considered second-rate. Yet, he was able to explode and rise to become the Alliance's top berserker in one go. This had a great deal to do with Gorosh's soul inheritance.
If he could gain the recognition of the real Wolf God, his strength might even be able to take a leap and become a demigod.
After understanding his own situation, William could only pinch his nose and accept it. "Goldryn has done me a great favor, and it's my wish to liberate his soul. I'll go back to Stormwind to hand over some state affairs. I'll go now. "
"Do well!" The smelly Duque put on the airs of an elder and encouraged William, making Tyrande want to laugh but not dare to.
Since Magni wasn't around, William was already the number two figure in the Alliance, but he was like a grandson in front of Duque …
Even though he knew that Duque had the intention of teasing him, William had no choice but to jump into this pit. He really didn't know if this was a sign that he was going to be under Duque's control for the rest of his life.
After getting rid of William, the next topic of discussion was naturally the Crow Demigod A.V.I. Oh, Avina. I used to blame that damned input method when I played games in the past. In the end, I ended up typing her name into this. It's a sin, a sin!
Duque didn't have any special plans or arrangements for this Crow Demigod. After all, these resurrected Demigods weren't too strong. Although they weren't as strong as those Wilderness Demigods who didn't even leave their names behind, they were actually not as good as Onyxia.
She was a strong support for mortals, but she was at most a bonus for Duque.
Anyway, they just had to kill Cecilia, the Twilight Dragon, who wasn't even considered a Boss. Out of the idea of training the younger generation or guiding them, Duque directly threw this task to Illucia, Sally Whitemane, Mara Fordragon, and some other second-rate powerhouses.
Hmm, if a group of girls learned to ride the Hippogryphs that Avina had inherited, it would be quite pleasing to the eye.
As for the Tortoise Demigod, Tortola, he was actually one of the few Demigods who had survived the ancient war.
Because this war had consumed too much of his energy, he chose to live in seclusion in Mount Hyjal. This sleep lasted for as long as 10,000 years, and he didn't even wake up during the Third War until the Cataclysm woke him up.
The funny thing was that because he had just woken up and wasn't ready, Tortola was subdued and imprisoned by the Twilight Hammer. Now, the task of this empty shell [Guardian of Hyjal] that Ysera had set up was to rescue him.
Duke knew that Tortola, who had been rescued, would not only personally assist everyone in fighting against the Fire Elemental Legion, but even his children would also step forward to do their part.
But as an old player, Duque knew how annoying Tortola's annoying sons and grandsons were.
Forget it!
Such a troublesome task would be left to Lena Thunderspear and the other newbies.
Summoning the short and fat female Dwarf Paladin Lena and the others, Duque deceived them with a serious face. "The Cataclysm has happened, and the Alliance and even the whole of Azeroth are facing another life and death crisis. In the name of the Supreme Commander of the Alliance, I give you a sacred task — let the Tortoise Demigod, who fought against the Burning Legion in the ancient war and fell into a state of weakness for 10,000 years, return … "
The newbies, who didn't know that Duque was only throwing the task to them because he was afraid of trouble, were all excited by the encouragement from the Supreme Commander of the Alliance, the legendary hero Duque. They couldn't wait to go to the battlefield the next moment.
