After Duke and Jaina went out, in Karazhan, Jaina's maids and attendants were all discussing it in private. The soul of gossip that had existed since ancient times was burning.
"Do you think that the Grand Duke and Her Highness will … do that?"
"Definitely! No one can resist Her Highness's charm. "
"Now that Her Highness is the only princess left in the world, any normal man would know what to do."
"I still don't think they will go straight to home plate."
"That's hard to say! Isn't the Lake of Wind in the East Elven Forest beautiful? What if the scenery is too beautiful? "
"Yeah! Back then, I was mesmerized by the scenery of the sea, and then I lost my chastity to that bastard Anthony. "
"Hey! I heard that His Majesty Proudmoore and Miss Golden Sword also had sex on the ship back then … "
Sylvanas, who was not far away, sneered when she heard this. She turned around and teased Ilusia, "Yo, little Ilusia, aren't you afraid that Duque will act impulsively and let little Jaina come ashore first? Hehe!"
Ilusia shook her head firmly, "Sister Sylvanas, you also know about Duque's plan. I'm just afraid that Duque will go too far and not know how to keep it."
Queen Sylvanas smirked, "That's not necessarily true. Our Duque is so popular. Besides, that playboy, didn't he hide a real princess before? "
"Shh!" Ilusia raised her index finger in front of her lips and nervously made a shushing gesture.
"Pfft, they are not elves who can hear the whispers of the wind." Queen Sylvanas shrugged indifferently, "I really don't know what's so good about Duque. Eldest and Third Sister are like this, and so are you. Everyone is dead set on that kid."
Ilusia's pretty face turned red, "He, he … I …"
"Hey! Do you want to make a bet with me? Let's bet on whether Duque will do anything to little Jaina. "
"Let's bet!" Ilusia agreed a little angrily.
"What's the bet?" Sylvanas asked with a hint of mockery.
"Let's bet on him doing something within his power."
"Alright!"
Just as the two of them made their vows, Illucia felt an arcane wave coming from the other side.
All of Karazhan was in a state of strict spatial lockdown, especially from the direction of Azeroth. With Duque and Khadgar's efforts, most of the spatial rifts had been moved to the original location of the Night's Nightmare. It was now guarded by the Einherjar, the Saintess of Chastity, and the giant arcane constructs led by the curator.
The stables, parlor, and ballroom at the main entrance had been refurbished. Even the opera house would be reopened soon.
This arcane wave was a portal, a portal that could lead directly to the front door. Only Duque and Illucia had the authority to open it.
Duque returned with Jaina.
Gianna's appearance caused all of Kul 'Tiras's maids and servants to cry out in alarm.
"Your Highness! What's wrong?! "Jaina's head maid rushed up in panic, and she glanced suspiciously at Duque.
"It's not my blood! I'm fine! " Jaina, who had calmed down, quickly got to the point. "I went through a cruel magic trial, and now I just want to take a good bath."
Even though Jaina comforted the maids, her appearance was too horrifying. Her entire upper body was dyed red with blood, as if she had fallen into a pool of blood for an evil ritual and was then fished out.
At this moment, even though no one said anything due to Duque's authority, every Kul 'Tiras citizen felt a deep resentment towards Duque.
What happened to the romance that was promised?
What happened to the wonderful Valentine's Day?
It's fine if you don't want to date our precious princess, but you even got yourself covered in blood. What the hell is this?
Duque ignored the murderous gazes of the maids and shrugged.
On the other side, Cirvanas, who came up to greet him, had a slightly pretentious expression of surprise.
"Is it that bad?"
Illucia and Khadgar nodded at the same time.
Before Jaina could go far, one of the maids beside her had already vomited, because the maids had seen the pieces of internal organs stuck to the back of Jaina's shoulder.
Illucia gave Duque a ladylike bow. "Seems like it's more suitable for me to go."
Although Illucia looked gentle and weak, she had fought thousands of miles with Duque in the past, and had seen even the most tragic of battlefields. She was a hundred times better than the maids who had never seen blood.
"Illucia, this is my loss." Cirvanas was very straightforward.
Illucia waved her hand as she left, indicating that she had heard him.
In the hall, only Duque and Cirvanas were left.
"Yo, Duque, you really don't regret what you did?"
"Regret what? His Majesty Dalin handed his daughter over to an archmage who killed the most orcs in the Alliance as a disciple. He should have been mentally prepared for this. "Duque looked indifferent.
"You're really willing to be so cruel to such a delicate little girl?!" Queen Sylvie put her hands on her hips in surprise. "Is this still the Duke Marcus who used to be obsessed with beautiful women, who gave magic roses everywhere and used magic to please girls?"
Duque blushed. "Alright, stop teasing me. Times have changed. Maybe there will be two to five years of peace, but the symphony of destruction has already begun. First, Jaina does have the talent to be a hero. Second, the one who can stand by my side in the end must be a powerful woman who can protect herself in any crisis. "
Cirvanas was not stupid. She immediately realized that she was in Duque's hunting range!
"Bastard! Do you want to kill all four of us Windrunner sisters? Do you want to die? I'll say this first, I don't like you. Don't flatter yourself. "
Duque touched his nose awkwardly. "I didn't say that."
"Hmph! That's good! "Cirvanas turned around, showing the back of Duke's head, and left without saying anything.
On the other side, in the bathroom of Karazhan.
Jaina could not count on the maid. She could only ask her best friend and spy Duque sent, Ilucia, to wash her body.
She washed her body with warm water over and over again, but no matter how she washed, she could still feel the disgusting smell of blood in her nostrils.
Human, orc …
The cavalryman whose neck was pierced by a spear …
The warriors who died in front of her …
The orcs who were smashed into pieces by Duque's magic …
Everything that happened today uncontrollably replayed in her mind.
Jaina shrunk her body and put half her face in the water. She blew bubbles out of boredom. Poof poof poof poof!
The next moment, an illusion appeared in Jaina's vision. She was not soaking in clean water, but in a pool of blood.
"Retch!" Jaina hurriedly got up and vomited again.
