"Are you alright?" Illucia patted Jaina's back lightly. "Maybe I wasn't used to it at first. When I saw the battlefield for the first time, my reaction was similar to yours. I went back and threw up for two days."
"Damn it! Duque ruined my Valentine's Day and my birthday. " Jaina looked like she wanted to eat Duque alive. "I'll remember him for the rest of my life!"
Illucia could only shrug helplessly. She could not speak up for Duque. Of all the days, he had to pick a time like this. Wasn't this just torturing people?
Illucia sighed. "Yes, yes, yes! Little Jaina, it'd be best if you could beat him up with magic in the future. He's really despicable sometimes. "
Jaina was very smart. She could tell from a few words that Illucia was still on Duque's side. She had an indescribably strange feeling. Was this her best friend who was likely to snatch her man?
Jaina decided to wait and see. "Here, tell me more about Duque."
"Why, are you starting to give in to him?"
"No, to conquer an enemy, one must first fully understand him …"
"Alright …"
So she had already become an enemy.
Then … Duque, don't blame me for selling you out. Of course, I don't believe that Jaina at this level can handle you …
At this moment, in the master bedroom on the highest floor of Karazhan, Duque had returned with Aurelia and Sasha. Sylvanas continued to command the Windrunner's Rangers in place of them.
Sasha rushed over like a bird returning to its nest and gave Duque a kiss. "Duque, I'm so happy. When you made this Valentine's Day, I almost thought you were going to make a festival in Stormwind just for Jaina's arrival. "
Aurelia took off her white coat and laughed. "If this is also Valentine's Day, then this must be a bloody Valentine's Day."
Sasha tacitly stepped aside to let her elder sister and Duke hug each other.
After a round of exchanging words and tongues, Duque brought the two sisters to the table that had already been prepared.
The nobles basically didn't talk during the meal, and even if they did, they would do so in whispers. But at Duque's place, they didn't have to worry so much. They continued to chat as they ate.
"Speaking of which, do you really like Jaina's talent that much?" Aurelia had always been curious. She didn't understand why Duque was willing to nurture Jaina with all his might, even though he clearly rejected Jaina personally.
Duque cut off a small piece of steak and swallowed it. He wiped his mouth with a napkin and said, "First of all, her magic talent is top-notch. She's the same as Ronin, a Breaking Dawn Great Wizard. "
From Duque's mouth, this evaluation could not be said to be low.
The Windrunner sisters froze.
"Then, given her identity as a princess, she'll be able to do a lot of things if there are any major changes in the Rotterdam Kingdom in the future. But she had a very special characteristic, and that was that she was too rational. She was used to weighing the value of everything on both ends of the scale. This could be a good thing or a bad thing. In a bad situation, she could be the next great traitor, Pirinod. "
After hearing this, Aurelia couldn't eat anymore.
"Then …"
"It doesn't matter. That's why I gave her a strong dose of medicine."
Regarding Jaina, Duque had actually thought for a long time.
If it was according to the original history of Jaina, Duque would definitely kill her with a stick.
Damn it, the so-called alliance with the tribe against the evil forces, this was equivalent to selling Dad, who "didn't see the big picture and destroyed the cooperation between the tribe and the Alliance", to Rexxar and Thrall. When Dad died, he would come out and shed a few drops of tears.
Looking at the original history, apart from that time when Mount Hyjal resisted the Archerons, Jaina mostly flirted with the tribe when she shouldn't have. When she really had to ally with the tribe, Theramore, her life's work, was flattened by the Great Chief "Braindead Roar" with a nuclear-level magic bomb, "Focusing Rainbow", causing her to lose her mind.
At the end of the day, it was because Jaina was too smart and too rational most of the time, forgetting that human society was ultimately maintained by human emotions.
Duque's strong medicine was the brutality of the Orcs.
In the original timeline, Jaina was younger than she was now. Jaina, who hadn't experienced the war at the Dark Portal, had grown up in the Dalajan, the sealed holy land of Magicians. She hadn't seen the brutality of the Orcs, so when she first came out after growing up, she felt more sympathy for the Orcs who were enslaved by humans. She felt that the Orcs were the victims, and she couldn't understand the hatred and bigotry of her father, Dailin, towards the Orcs.
Now, Duque had taught her a very important lesson in advance.
Talent could be cultivated.
But heroes couldn't be replicated.
Why?
It was simple.
All education could be repeated, but life experience couldn't be repeated.
Even if it was the same trial, exploring an unknown dungeon for the first time and sending people to harvest after the exploration were two completely different levels of tests.
Originally, Jaina had been too successful. She had been raised like a Virgin Mary in a greenhouse. Now that Duque told her, "This world is cruel, and if you can't take it, go back and be a greenhouse princess," it would obviously change the course of Jaina's life.
That night, when Duque fought with the Windrunner sisters, King Dailin of Kul 'Tiras received the news.
Reading the magic message that was more than a thousand words long, Dailin was stunned for a long time.
His lover, Gina Kingsword, placed her hands on his shoulders and massaged his shoulders. After Dailin's queen passed away, she was the actual queen. However, she had never tried to stand in front of the throne, nor did she try to make her and Dailin's illegitimate daughter officially join the royal family.
She was satisfied with her current position, and she didn't want to cause any trouble for Dailin.
Therefore, Dailin trusted her very much.
"Duque really dared to do it!" Dailin was conflicted. He didn't know if he should be angry or laugh.
"He's been rejecting me since the beginning. His attitude hasn't changed at all," Gina reminded Daylin.
"I thought …"
"He was never a real politician. If he was the kind of man who constantly compromised for political victory, he wouldn't have become the Alliance's hero. Isn't that right? "
"Bastard, I want him to be my son-in-law!"
Gina laughed. "Now, he's just fulfilling his responsibility as a teacher. Even if you make a scene in the Alliance, no one will support you. Don't forget, you gave him your sword and asked him to fulfill his responsibility as a teacher! "
Dailin felt like he had shot himself in the foot.
"Bastard! I'll teach him a lesson one day! "
