46. The Fathers and the Son
In the hall of Theramore, Lagosh looked at Varian opposite,
"You know? I used to hate you! Why give me a blank first half of my life? I don't even know who I am, and I don't know where I'm going. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Varian didn't get angry, he chuckled and didn't answer, but said something else,
"Actually, I guessed early on that I was not normal. ”
Varian stretched out his finger and lightly scratched his face, which was where the scar on Lagosh's face was,
"Here, three years ago, that night, I was awakened by pain, in the dormitory of the Storm Fortress, it hurt! Really, but there was no blood, but it was as painful as flesh and blood being broken, and I didn't have a good rest for half a month, and I didn't even dare to close my eyes, for fear that I wouldn't be able to sleep. ”
Varian made a sleeping motion, his eyelids flickering, apparently recalling the pain, "I can't imagine that the aftermath of that pain alone has brought me close to death, if I had really taken that sword, I would have died of pain." ”
The pale king raised his hand and lightly touched the scar on Lagosh's face,
"And now I know, I really went through that pain, and I know that I survived. ”
"Does it hurt?"
Lagosh snapped, his body leaning back, dodging Varian's outstretched hand,
"It hurts, but it's good to get used to it. ”
"yes? I'll probably never get used to it. ”
Varian smiled as well, propped himself up with his cane, walked to the window, and suddenly asked, "Do you remember Tiffin?"
Lagosh shook his head.
"My memory is blank except for Anduin. ”
"Then you can remember it from now on!"
Varian accentuated his tone, then flushed, coughed twice, and said to Lagosh solemnly, "That's the woman you must remember for the rest of your life! That's Anduin's mother, the woman you love the most!"
Lagosh's mouth moved, as if he wanted to refute, but in the end he chose to remain silent.
Varian closed his eyes, as if caught in some kind of memory,
"I remember when I was 7 years old, my father, Ryan Ureon was assassinated on the throne by Garona, and I was taken by Bervar to Lordaeron, and the orcs, the orcs took over my homeland..."
Varian talked about his childhood, about King Terenus, about Arthas and Kalia, and so on, and Lagosh sensed that something was wrong, and he heard a hint of ominousness in Varian's tone, and he heard the feeling of Torgu, which made the reckless gladiator a little unbearable, and he loudly interrupted Varian's speech.
He looked at his half body angrily and asked,
"What are you doing here?"
Varian looked at the angry Lagosh, he smiled, this was probably the first time he had laughed from the bottom of his heart since he came to Theramore, he smiled back and forth, and even laughed out of tears,
"No, no, no, Lagosh, you don't understand, you don't understand. ”
"I belong to the past, Lagosh, and I'm tired, I even need to send my own son to Theramore to avoid him being harmed, I'm not a good father, I'm not a good king, I'm not even a good husband, but you... You can protect Anduin!"
Varian tapped his finger at Lagosh's chest,
"I don't care if you're a good king, I only care about Anduin, that's my son, the most important thing in my life, you remember, gladiator! I'm going to entrust my son to you now! you protect him for me, do you hear?"
"You don't need to say it, I will protect him too, he is also my son!"
Lagosh slapped Varian's hand away, but then, his voice became muffled again,
"Why do you want to help me?"
Varian snorted his eyes, a smile on the corner of his mouth, and then reached out and placed it in front of Lagosh,
"Because of Anduin, but also because you belong to the future. ”
Lagosh looked into Varian's eyes, and finally reached out and took the cold hand.
"Come on, Lagosh, become Varian Ureon, be the father of that child, and then be the king of Stormwind! I'm sure you can. ”
Outside the hall, everyone's hearts were in their throats, silence was unbearable language, and Anduin, whose eyes were red, suddenly shook off Princess Kalia's hand, pushed open the door and was about to rush in, but the door was also pulled open from the inside at this moment, and the little prince threw himself into a strong and powerful embrace.
Anduin looked up, and he saw the face with the scar and black hair, it was the face of Lagosh, but the smile on that face belonged to Varian, and when the two men became one again, it was not as magical as the others thought, like the king who was under the claws of the black dragon, and was shouting to save his son.
He's back, that's all.
"My sons, my marshals, I am back. ”
Eventually, even the voice became Varian Ureon.
The little prince felt the strongest, the father who had always been with him when he was a child, finally came back again! he wanted to be stronger, but at this moment, tears still welled up in his eyes.
Being strong doesn't belong to this moment, and he can finally release his loneliness and worries wantonly.
The marshals were beaming, the entire Stormwind Kingdom had deteriorated after the king's accident, just like a sick giant, and only by returning the giant's brain to normal could the giant truly recover his health.
Now, the Brain of the Giants is back!
Hiding in the crowd, Valera took one last look at Varian Ureon, who was having a good time with Anduin and Princess Kalia, her beautiful eyes filled with tears, as if she was missing the person she loved for the last time, and finally left quietly.
The person she liked was gone, and she stayed here, and there was no point in it anymore.
Two hours later, Valera changed into a traveler's outfit and mingled at the docks outside Seramo, not knowing where she was going, she just didn't want to stay in this place.
Maybe a trip would be a good choice.
"Hey, beauty, you don't look good in this. ”
A slightly flirtatious voice reached Valrela's ears, causing her to jerk back, and not far behind her, Varian, dressed in his gown, leaned against a pillar with his hands folded on his shoulders, frowning at her, looking nothing like a king.
But once again, Valera's tears welled up in her eyes, as was the case three years ago, when she and Lagosh met for the first time in Naglan.
The surrounding passengers were dispersed by the sudden appearance of MI7 assassins for unknown reasons, and Varian walked up to Valrela, stretched out his hand, and embraced her into his arms, the High Elves resisted, but she finally rested her head on Varian's heart.
"I've lost one of my favorite women and I won't lose a second one. ”
"Who the hell are you? Varian, or Lagosh?"
"What do you say, my dear, come and be my queen. ”

Stone Claw Mountains, Stone Dwelling in the Scorching Sun.
The golden eagle of Kalimdor spread its wings and flew under this turquoise blue sky, a deserted area surrounded almost entirely by mountains, except for the Minotaurs of Mogaure and the elves of Kadore, who had established a stronghold here, and only the Goblin Trading Company all over the world carried out mineral exploration in the northwestern region.
Today, however, this quiet mountain has welcomed a new visitor.
Dick sat on the highest peak of the Stonetalon Mountains in his cloak, the wind howling, a place that ordinary creatures would never be able to reach, but under the protection of the faint light around him, Dick could not feel the slightest sound of the wind.
He sits here, waiting for another person to arrive, and he is going to fulfill a promise.
From this height, Dick could even faintly see the landscape of the Bleak Lands, another desolate land, once home to the Minotaurs, but now completely overrun by savage centaurs.
A black dot appeared in the sky behind Dick, flapping its wings like a real eagle, but the tangled decorations and bright feathers on its body, and its gloomy eyes, proved his identity.
It was a storm raven, it was a druid.
He hovered in the air for weeks, and after determining Dick's location, he quickly rushed in Dick's direction, and as he approached the mountain, a green glow appeared around his body, expanding, and eventually enveloping his body.
The deer helmet that I haven't seen for a long time is still the same as before, after the end of the quicksand battle, the two have not been in contact again, the deer helmet itself is not a passionate character, and over the years looking for a way to resurrect his beloved son, it has also made this great druid more and more deep and withdrawn.
"Are you going to keep your promise? Dick. ”
The deerhelm's voice was cold, but Dick didn't care, he waved his hand,
"Yes, Grand Druid, the time is almost up, and the opportunity I promised you is almost up. ”
Deerhelm's brow furrowed, he looked left and right, there was nothing around here, and he even felt that Dick was playing tricks on him?
But the paladin didn't mean that at all, and he explained unhurriedly,
"In order to protect every world with star spirits, the Titan has used infinite power to cover an infinite number of timeline worlds for these worlds, although you may not believe it, but the world we are in is one of the infinite worldline worlds, and the time of this world flows forward, like a river that is constantly meandering, but in some places, it will always form a seemingly impossible backflow. ”
"In these refluxes of time, everything that has happened may be changed, but it also has rules, things that will inevitably happen, and forcibly stopping it will only cause the timeline of the whole world to be disordered, and eventually lead to the emergence of an unclosed reflux of time, and eventually lead to the deviation of the entire river. ”
"But the emergence of these refluxes is also an opportunity, especially for someone like you who is eager to change death. ”
The paladin raised his head and looked at the big druid with a serious face,
"Soon, an unexpected return in time will be here, but I have to warn you, Deer Helm, it was a gambling trip full of accidents, and you could save the life of Valastan, your poor son, but there was also a chance that nothing could be changed, and you could just watch things go their own way. And once you do something unforgivable in time travel, the world will be buried with you. ”
Dick's voice carried a hint of weariness,
"At that time, even if you save your son, he will still die with the world. ”
To be honest, Dick said a lot of things, even the deer helmet was half-understood, the realm of time was too obscure for mortals, but he understood the general meaning.
Although it is a little unbelievable, with Dick's current status, Deer Helmet does not think that he will deceive himself in this matter.
So he responded indifferently,
"Don't worry, I'm not a madman who will drag everything to death, the main thing is to save Wallastan, everything is bearable. ”
"But you could die! Anything could kill you in a dangerous battle of the ancients, and you might even face Akmund or even Sargeras in person, and you would be suspected, imprisoned, banished, or even banished from the whole world by your kindred, by your elders. ”
Dick accentuated his tone, "You need to wait nearly 10,000 years, or even longer, in that time return to get that precious opportunity, and once you miss it in that long time, you won't even have a chance to come back!"
"If so, would you still be willing to try?"
Hearing Dick's question, a difficult smile finally appeared on the stiff face of the deer helmet,
"I'm willing... The world without Wallastan is too cold, it's just a life for a life, I've been ready for this, and I even have to thank you for giving me this opportunity!"
"Hey..."
Dick saw the steadfast and almost paranoid gaze in the eyes of the deer helmet, and he shook his head, and no longer persuaded, but said something else,
"The portal to the return of time will be opened in the near future, within the entire Stonetalon Mountains, if I were you, I would keep a close eye on the traces of the mage Ronin, you know him, but don't have close contact with them, and it's better not to meet each other, after going back through time, don't get involved in any of their actions, and don't do anything other than save Wallastan that will change the course of history. ”
"Also, since you've decided to go on an adventure that is destined for your life, I need you to do me a favor. ”
"A trivial favor for you!"
