Whoosh! It's so cold!
The biting cold wind made Jaina shiver.
Even though she was a mage who specialized in ice magic, she couldn't help but shiver when she suddenly came from the warm Karazhan living room to the cold north.
She was wearing very little.
"This is …"
It was mid-February, and the harsh winter had yet to recede. The mountains and trees in the distance were all covered in white.
Apart from the mountains, there were only trees.
For Jaina, who had no experience in surviving in the wild, it was like she was at a loss.
Jaina was a little confused. Where was this?
At this time, Duque's voice sounded in Jaina's ear.
"Ah!" This gave Jaina a shock. At the same time, the sleeveless design of the moon cloth robe was a trap for Jaina. She couldn't help but almost instinctively hug her other arm and rub it hard.
"This is the northern mountainous area of the Tirisfal Woodland." Duque's blue and white mage robe fluttered in the cold wind.
The Tirisfal Woodland?
The clever Jaina suddenly thought of something, and her little face instantly turned pale.
"Yes! The first lesson I'm giving you is' survival '! How to survive in this world that will soon become incomparably terrible. The requirements for the first lesson are not high. With your current equipment, you can survive in the Tirisfal Woodland infested with orcs for 24 hours. "
What?!
When Jaina heard this, she almost cried out in grievance.
Letting a little girl like her, who had never lived independently, stay in the dangerous forest of orcs for 24 hours without winter clothes, food, assistance, or any heating equipment?
Wasn't this bullying?
Tears quickly gathered in the corner of Jaina's beautiful eyes. That pitiful appearance, for a moment, almost made Duque's heart soften.
But the best actor was still the best actor.
Duque pretended to be magnanimous and asked, "Are you afraid?"
"Yes!" Jaina suddenly looked up, and a hint of surprise flashed in her wronged eyes. Oh! So Duque was just giving me a show of strength to scare me!
Duke waved his hand, and after a short incantation, an illusory portal as tall as a person opened.
Just as Jaina was about to step in, her body suddenly froze as if she had been hit by a petrifying spell.
Jaina would recognize this scene even if she turned into ashes.
On the other side of the door was Kul 'Tiras!
"As long as you promise to tell His Majesty Proudmoore that you don't want to learn from me. Then you can walk through this door, return to your warm home, and be your Princess Ku Tiras. "Duque spoke very slowly, but each word was like a knife that cut into Jaina's heart.
It wasn't that no one had reminded Jaina that Duque didn't like her and didn't want to marry her. He didn't even want to take her as his disciple.
However, the [Smoke Glove] that even Antonidas was envious of made the young Jaina forget about it in her excitement.
Now it seemed that it was true!
That's right, I can go back, but what about after I go back? He came under Duque's command in the name of becoming his disciple, but he was chased away because he couldn't endure the tough training. It would be strange if her father didn't skin her alive for this kind of humiliation. In the future, let alone Antonidas, no archmage in Dalajan would accept her as a disciple.
Thinking of this, Jaina's mouth was full of bitterness.
Did she have a choice?
Jaina bowed impeccably and used a respectful tone, "No, Teacher Marcus, I am your student. I came to Karazhan to receive your teachings. If you think that survival in the wild is very helpful for my growth, then I accept your trial. 24 hours, right? I hope you can come and pick me up on time. "
"I promise to be on time in 24 hours." Duque raised his chin.
"One more question."
"Ask."
"What if there's a danger that I can't handle?"
"Do you remember your brother Drake's coming of age ceremony when he was 16? Your father only gave him a dagger and pushed him into a pool with an adult shark. "
Jaina had goosebumps. When she was a child, she grew up listening to the great achievements of her father and brother. Only when she was a little older did she understand how dangerous it was.
In the face of a shark's attack in the sea, the only way to survive was to use the dagger to stab the shark's nose the moment the shark pounced, then use the dagger to twist the shark's head so that the body could escape the shark's bite range. Otherwise, if the shark's sharp teeth grazed the body, the skin would be torn open on the spot, and the wound might even get infected and die.
Jaina's whole body was trembling, but after a few seconds, she finally calmed down and bowed again, "I understand, Teacher. May I ask one last question? "
"Yes."
"Did you experience something similar back then?"
"Yes."
"Then I have no problem. What you can do back then, I can also do." Jaina's blue eyes flashed with determination.
"Very good!" Duke said and disappeared in front of her with a teleportation.
It's so cold!
Jaina exhaled a mouthful of white fog and realized that she had to find some clothes first. Otherwise, she would freeze to death in less than an hour, not to mention 24 hours.
The only good thing was that she was wearing standard mage shoes today and not high heels for banquets. At least when faced with bad mountain roads, she would not be so desperate that she had to take off her shoes to walk.
In a cave on the mountainside five hundred meters away, looking at the dazed Jaina in the snow, a beautiful elf combed her golden hair that had been messed up by the wind. She turned back and smiled, "Duque, you're really cruel."
"You think so too? Aurelia. "
Aurelia laughed, "This is too cruel for a 14-year-old girl. Don't you know? Today is her birthday. "
Pfft! Jaina's birthday is Valentine's Day? What the hell is this?
Duque really did not know if this was how it was in the original history, or if it was because he had transmigrated that he had become like this. Alright, she could hate if she wanted to. It was better than her following the original trajectory of becoming a "girl who sold her father".
Duque pulled Aurelia into his arms, feeling the female elf's warmth. "Jaina is undoubtedly a true genius. She has the talent to grow to become a Breaking Dawn Wizard. But there is no lack of geniuses in this world, and only one in ten thousand can reach the peak in the end. "
The female elf's eyes flickered. "Because geniuses all die from their own pride, laziness, or misfortune on the path of growth?"
"Yes!"
That's not right either!
I just don't want her to become that terrible woman who sold her father and the Alliance!
Below, Jaina turned in a daze in the cold wind. Suddenly, she was pleasantly surprised to see smoke.
The rising smoke could be seen clearly even from several kilometers away.
