As the Storm Grand Duke and the commander of the Alliance, Duque was definitely qualified to attend the coronation ceremony of the two queens. But to sit on the seat that was side by side with the throne, this was too much.
The moment he saw that seat, Duque realized that the seat that was on the same level as the throne was probably for him. Almost immediately, he decided that it was not appropriate!
In the huge tent that was temporarily set up, as soon as the outsiders were chased away, Duque flew into a rage on the spot.
In front of the two queens, Duque asked directly, "What are you doing? Who is that seat for? Don't tell me you want me to sit on it! "
"Yes! It's for you! "Cirvanas answered without hesitation.
Duque gritted his teeth. "Why?! When the Alliance was first established, the kings made a declaration that no commander's position could be higher than the king's. The commander is just a coordinator, not a ruler! "
Cirvanas threw out an answer that Duque had never thought of. "Because you inherited the will of Alonsus Faol!"
"But, I'm a mage!" Duque looked constipated.
"I asked Riadeline. When you and I attacked together, the golden soul coin that you made should be condensed from the will of the former Archbishop of Holy Light. Am I right? "
Duque … was speechless!
At the side, Kalia began to sing. "Why did the Calamity Army invade so quickly? Why did Lordaeron and Cuel Salas collapse so easily? Why did the Church of the Cursed easily infiltrate the upper echelons of the two kingdoms? The former prince of Lordaeron has fallen! "
Cirvanas continued, "The king of Cuel Salas has also fallen! And Darkan and the other members of the Silver Moon Council! "
Kalia continued, "Doesn't this show how much harm the lack of faith has caused to the world? So, after our discussion, the upper echelons of the two kingdoms unanimously decided that from the day we ascend the throne, to fight against evil and to purify ourselves, the two kingdoms will worship the Church of the Holy Light as the national religion. We will vigorously promote the training of priests and paladins.
Cirvanas continued, "At the same time, the elites of our two countries will be under your command to deal with the upcoming Archeron crusade!"
They made so much sense that Duque had nothing to say!
If they wanted to push Duque out from a personal point of view, Duque would not agree no matter what. The problem was that Duque had indeed inherited Alonsus' moral integrity. There was no way to deny it. After all, Duque had been the last person to see the Archbishop of the Church of the Church of the Archbishop.
At that time, all the clergies in Stratholme saw the Archbishop give Duke a Holy Light inheritance. Of course, the position of Archbishop of the Holy Light was passed on to Uther.
The problem was that the Church of Holy Light pursued selflessness and dedication too much, which actually conflicted with the interests of the nobles. Even though Uther was the Archbishop of the Church of the Church of the Church of the Holy Light, when Uther and Arthas clashed, Terenas, who was determined to have more royal power than divine power, demoted Uther. Even though Uther also held the position of Archbishop of the Holy Light, when Uther and Arthas had a conflict, Terenas, who was determined to have more royal power than divine power, immediately demoted Uther.
Now, there were many people who had the Holy Knight's legacy, but they were all fighting. There was no one who could truly represent the Will of the Holy Light.
Now, there were many people who had the Holy Knight's legacy, but all of them were fighters. There was no one who could truly represent the Will of the Holy Light.
It was not impossible to bring up Duque from this angle.
Kalia added fuel to the fire, "Duque, just agree. Now that there is a craze for revenge in both kingdoms, I feel that there is a need to properly guide this hatred. Mograine, Abbendis, and Dathrohan all believe that you, who have the true legacy of Archbishop Faol, can indeed represent the Will of the Holy Light. "
At this time, Illucia, who had been following behind Duque silently, said to Duque, "Turayan and Windsor have also agreed."
Sylvanas narrowed her eyes, "Riadeline, who is about to form the Holy Knights in our kingdom, also thinks that you are very suitable."
Duque suddenly realized that he had been sold out by his women. If he did not stand up, he might really let the historical Scarlet Crusade rise again.
Since ancient times, countless history had proven that fanatics were not destined to have a good ending.
It was precisely because of their extreme nature that extremists would never receive the support of the masses.
Since he had already saved Mograine and Abbendis, he would not be able to forgive himself if he allowed them to go back to their old ways.
Duque scratched his head, "Alright, you've convinced me. Although in a way that I hate … "
In the big tent, the three women showed expressions of joy at the same time.
Illucia said with a smile, "Are you done with your official business?"
Now that the official business was done, it was time for private matters.
Suddenly, the two queens, who had been so majestic just a moment ago, flinched a little at the same time. Of course, Queen Kalia's reaction was slightly bigger.
Knowing that she could not avoid it, Kalia stepped forward and bowed deeply, "I'm sorry! This time, I was the one who suggested this first. "
Cirvanas indifferently interjected, "But I agreed."
Agreeing meant that she was an accomplice. Queen Sylvanas was quite loyal.
Duque put his hands on his hips, "I don't understand. What are you trying to achieve by doing this?"
Kalia raised her head, "I just want to tell you and the world that the two of us and the kingdom behind us will support you unconditionally."
"Have you considered the reaction of the other kingdoms? What do you want Magni to think? What do you want Daelin to think? What do you want Varian to think? "
"No, I think they will value your voice more. Now that the demon commander of the Burning Legion has arrived, according to Medivh's prophecy, there will be more crises of world destruction coming to Azeroth. What we need is a more united alliance, a single, correct voice! "
Of course, Duque knew that his actions in the future were correct. After all, the general trend was still going in that direction. He was also sure that most of his opinions were correct. But at this point, was the alliance still the alliance?
Duque could not help but feel puzzled.
Illucia spoke, "Duque, you have not been here for the past ten years. That's why you don't know how serious the internal strife within the Alliance has been. If it wasn't for the Stormwind Kingdom and the Iron Furnace Fort holding the fort, the Alliance would've withdrawn the army from the Watchtower and canceled the surveillance of the Burning Steppes and Scorching Canyon. "
"Bastard! You're asking for it! "Duque could not suppress his anger.
Cirvanas blinked. "That's why we're doing this to give you more authority!"
