One of his own was going to be a queen, and it was two queens ascending the throne at once. This was supposed to be a joyous occasion, worthy of celebration and celebration.
However, if two queens who were close to him ascended the throne on the same day, then it would not be fun at all.
A certain Du once had a dream, and that was to use the kingdoms that had sunk in the history of the Alliance as sampans. He would make one sampan after another into a chain of ships, and then build an unsinkable aircraft carrier to ride on the sea!
Now, the aircraft carrier had yet to appear, and the two large ships in his base were in danger of capsizing at the same time!?
At this moment, a certain Du thought of a certain pitiful person who was killed by his girlfriend with a hatchet.
At this moment, a certain Du thought of the Alliance starting a civil war against the elven ranger because of him …
At this moment, a certain Du thought of the Lordaeron Paladin angrily confronting the Elven Ranger …
Duque's reaction was that of a dumbfounded one.
At this moment, Duque, who was in the Dalajan Ruins Military Camp, would never know that at this moment, in the gorgeous Lordaeron Palace-Cum-Castle in the center of the Holy City of Stratholme, two women who were about to become the most powerful on the continent were staring at each other.
The room was newly cleaned, and most of the decorations in the room were from the time of Lordaeron. However, most of the furniture was very old, although it could still be seen that it had been well maintained and cleaned.
The most new things in the room were the paintings hanging on the wall.
Kalia, who was dressed in pure white priestly attire, used her soft fingertips to slide across the frame of a well-framed painting. Her thoughts seemed to have returned to the distant end of the river of time.
"I've been to many places, many of which I've only seen in knight novels thirteen years ago. I've always been fascinated by these places, but thirteen years ago, I thought that I would never have the chance to see these places with my own eyes.
"I've been to Stranglethorn Vale, and was chased for three days and three nights by trolls who liked to hunt their heads. From the edge of Zul 'Gurub in the east, through Lake Nafiriti, all the way to the Reef Sea in the west. It was only when the Murlocs by the sea covered us that we escaped. That time, Lilas alone killed 386 trolls. "
"I've been to the Swamp of Sorrows. At that time, the swamp was still a gloomy and terrifying place. However, in order to connect Overwatch Castle and Redridge Mountain Fortress into one, Duque carried out a large-scale development there. Riadeline and I pretended to be clerics who came to help and volunteered for half a year. "
"I've also been to Burning Steppes, Scorching Canyon and Barren Lands. I've killed wild wolves with my own hands and killed orcs with [Smite]."
"I've seen the pure white snow of Dan Moluo, walked through the mud of the wetland, and almost died in the swamp."
"From the Arathi Highlands that were almost razed to the ground after the war, to the thriving Hillsbrad Hills, to the scorched Silverpine Forest."
"After that, the four of us crossed the ocean to the west and arrived at the Kalimdor continent that most humans and elves had never been to before. We used eight years to basically wander from the southernmost Tanaris Desert to the more northernmost Azshara and Gray Valley. "
"Two continents, dozens of areas. Other than the areas controlled by the High Elves and Night Elves, I've been to all the places that I could go. I've seen with my eyes that should have been imprisoned in Lordaeron's High Tower. I've touched with my hands that should have only been used for court etiquette and musical instruments, as well as to serve the king's husband. I've felt with my skin that even the amount of time I spend under the sun is limited. I've truly experienced with my soul. "
Kaliya's voice involuntarily became high-pitched. Her fingertips slid across the oil paintings that she had painted with her own hands, evoking all the memories that had made her happy, made her sad, inspired her, and made her sad in the past thirteen years.
When the memories of the paintings appeared in her mind again, she couldn't help but complete another spiritual journey.
At this moment, Cirvanas, who was supposed to stay in Quel 'Thalas, unexpectedly appeared here. He had been sitting quietly on the guest seat in the middle of the room since the beginning, gently sipping his black tea. He put down the teacup in the most elegant manner, and in the interval between the Queen-to-be Kalia, who was immersed in her memories, he finally spoke.
Cirvanas used a sonorous and powerful voice to narrate a cruel truth that hit the nail on the head. "So what? Princess Kaliya. Have you ever thought about it? It might have been intentional, it might have been unintentional. The result is that you became a hidden pawn in Duque's hands for thirteen years. "
Kaliya's movements suddenly stopped, as if she had been hit by a spell that stopped time.
Yes!
Cirvanas was right.
What a coincidence!
That kind of coincidence was so perfect that it was hard not to think of it as a conspiracy.
Just when Arthas fell into depravity and killed his father, Duque quickly rushed back and took over the most elite army in the whole of Lordaeron. Then, he grandly pushed out Kaliya, the golden signboard that no one could refute or oppose. Within a few days, he stabilized the situation of the collapsing Lordaeron.
Come to think of it, you, Duque, as the deputy commander of the Alliance, created the illusion that the princess of the Lordaeron Alliance had died tragically. Then, when the kingdom collapsed, you quickly released the princess. If you had to attribute this to a conspiracy theory, it would be really hard to find evidence to refute it.
Seeing Kaliya's reaction, Cirvanas elegantly curled his fingers and took another sip of black tea.
Then, Kaliya smiled. Her bright smile was completely stretched out, immediately making people think of an ocean of flowers blooming in spring. It was a smile that contained everything.
"A pawn? A conspiracy? Or could it be that Duque had already foreseen all of this, and then thought of how to benefit from it 13 years ago? If this is your question, then my answer is … So what? "
That! Again! Like! What?
Kaliya's magnanimous attitude made Cirvanas a little jealous.
Kaliya held her head high and chest out. She gracefully walked over with small steps and stood in front of Cirvanas. "That year, I was still underage. At that age where women loved to fantasize the most, which girl did not fantasize about their prince charming? If you ask me who is the prince charming in my heart, then from the past until now, there has only been one … "
At this moment, it was Cirvanas's turn to freeze. She remained silent and continued to listen to what Kaliya seemed to be saying.
"If this was really a conspiracy, then Duque should have used my affection for him 13 years ago to completely possess me. When I came back to my senses, maybe I would already be the mother of several children, and each child's surname would be Marcus. By the time my evil brother killed my father, Menethil's blood had already been changed to Marcus's! "
