42. Dream Killing
Dick opened his eyes, and the dome of Theramore's dwelling, according to the beliefs of Princess Kalia, was painted with the picture of Bishop Fao being inspired by the Light in the teachings of the Holy Light, solemn and deep, and the five great knights of the first generation stood aside in silver armor, like warriors in the legend of the Holy Light.

The paladin felt tired, as if the "activity" had been too intense last night.
He tilted his head, Miss Gianna's long golden hair sprinkled on his shoulders, the ends of the hair made him itch slightly, Dick's eyes were a little strange, he didn't remember it was Gianna last night.
"Bang. ”
The door was pushed open, and Liadeline, dressed in the home's gown, walked into the room with a hot breakfast, and after marriage, Liadelin looked more mature and intellectual, and when the two got along, they were like a gentle big sister, taking care of Dick.
She put down the plate, her eyes swept over Dick who sat up from the black velvet bed, the quilt was lifted, the smooth back of the eldest lady and the graceful posture reflected in the early morning sun, Gianna snorted dissatisfiedly in her sleep, turned around and hugged the pillow and fell asleep again.
Dick walked down from the bed naked, wearing a nightgown, leaned down and kissed the eldest lady's cheek, and then walked to Liadeline, who hugged her shoulders, and stretched out her hand to protect the high elf, feeling the elven paladin's bumpy figure because of long-term training, Dick was a little impatient, he kissed Liadelin's earlobe from behind, this action made the expression of the originally indifferent paladin collapse on the spot.
"Today we're going fishing at the beach?"
Dick asked softly, and Liadline turned to hug him, leaning her short orange hair on his shoulder,
"Aren't you going to supervise Anduin's training today? That kid's knight test is approaching, and His Majesty Varian sent an envoy to inquire about this matter a few days ago. ”
"Is there one?"
Dick scratched his head, he had been busy lately, and he might have forgotten things sometimes.
"It doesn't matter. ”
The paladin shrugged his shoulders, suddenly picked up Liadline and spun around twice in the air, this action made the High Elf Paladin scream, and after landing, the two of them fought for a while, and Dick sat on the chair with the Elf Paladin in his arms, and began the breakfast of the day.
It didn't take long to eat, and though it was a time of peace, Dick still maintained his wartime habits, and he quickly finished his breakfast, kissed and said goodbye to Liadline and the eldest lady who got up in a daze, wrapped in a sheet, and prepared to leave the room with his own Great Crusade.
"It's an illusion, wake up!"
Liadline suddenly took Dick's hand and struggled to whisper, and Dick froze,
"What? What's wrong with you? Honey, are you uncomfortable?"
Looking at Liadline's towering forehead, Dick hurriedly put down the cloak in his hand and approached the High Elf, whose brow gradually loosened and gently took Dick's hand,
"Nothing, dear, I'm just a little cold, go get busy. ”
Dick smiled disapprerovingly, pushed open the door and walked out, and the moment the door closed, Gianna, Liadeline, and everything in the room turned into black smoke and disappeared, and a spirit body that looked like Liadline was shackled by black smoke and locked in this place that was slowly becoming dark.
"Sleep, sleep... Just go to sleep, and voila, the warm and comfortable darkness is embracing you with open arms..."
"Get out... Open, my spirit, my soul... It's just him, get out of here!"
"Hehe... Soon it won't. ”
The smoke cleared, leaving only a void in its place, a void of nothingness, like a heart that had been dug out.
"Good morning, Knight Dick!"
"Good morning, Grand Knight. ”
Dick walked in the court of Theramore, he walked briskly, although he always felt that there was something wrong with Liadline just now, but the paladin did not go to his heart, he walked on the avenue of the court, and the people he met along the way were humbly saluting him, as the biggest hero of the rise of the country in the previous wars of Theramore, Dick's status in Theramore is far beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
There are even some newcomers who don't know Princess Kalia, but they know the name of the Knight of Dick, especially in the Battle of the Quicksand that ended five years ago, when the Knight turned the tide and defeated the ancient evil gods and truly saved the defeated coalition army, which completely pushed Dick's prestige to the peak.
A series of exaggerated and glorious titles such as the hero of the human world, the savior of Azeroth, the heavenly man of Theramore, the surrogate of the Holy Light, and so on, crowned Dick's head, and no one felt that there was anything wrong with it, and Dick himself felt that there was nothing wrong with it.
Today there will be a banquet in the royal palace of Theramore to entertain the distinguished guests of Quel'Salas who have come from afar, and Dick, as the symbol of Theramore, must attend.
After the squire respectfully opened the door for him, Dick strode onto the red carpet, and the banquet had not yet begun, so the servants of the court were nervously cleaning up the final venue, and some high elves were walking back and forth in the ornate banquet hall.
The paladins are already familiar with this scene, the war in the north is about to enter the final stage, the Silver Hand and the Scarlet Crusade have pledged their allegiance to Princess Kalia, and perhaps soon, the royal court of Theramore will move back to the northern part of the Eastern Continent to rebuild the extinct Lordaeron.
This is a good thing for anyone to write about, after the reconstruction of Lordaeron, the lonely Theramore will definitely become an enclave, but this very mature territory that has been developed will eventually have a lord, and now the domestic gossip is flying all over the sky, saying that the eldest princess intends to designate the knight of Dick to become the lord of Theramore, which is enough to match the big lord of those small countries in the Seven Kingdoms.
The unimaginable glory, especially the arrival of the Knight Dick from a commoner to this point, is nothing short of an inspirational legend.
Just as the paladin walked towards the center of the hall, a dark shadow flashed in the corner of his eye, it was a very familiar feeling, as if he had seen it somewhere, which immediately aroused Dick's curiosity, and the paladin walked over, but did not find anyone in the corner, but saw a figure that made him unusually familiar not far away.
Sylvanas, the Ranger General of Theramore, the Paladin's... Well, confidante.
Dick smiled and took a glass of red wine from his attendant's hand and walked over to Sylvanas, who was sitting on the side, and behind him, the wall shook strangely, pulling a white-gray female werewolf bound by a web of black mist into the wall.
Verinde's mouth was so tightly sealed that she couldn't even make a sound, and she could only watch Dick walk towards Sylvanas in ignorance.
That's certainly not true!!
But unfortunately, like Leah Delrin, she can't break free from Cthun's shackles, let alone wake up Dick in his dreams.
The dream's long knife had been erected, and the cold, merciless blade was on Dick's neck, but he didn't feel it at all.
"Beautiful young lady, what are you worried about?"
Dick leaned against the wall, undisguised her gaze, admiring the striking curves of Sylvanas, which the cold Ranger General was clearly aware of, but she did not object, but instead leaned back in her chair, her body fully extended, exposing her beautiful curves to Dick's eyes.
There was also an ambiguous smile on her cold and beautiful face, she stretched out her hand, picked up her wine glass, and stood up, under the Quel'Salas-style gown, two brittle long legs, she strode to the balcony, and when she turned, her eyes blinked slightly at Dick.
The paladin immediately understood, coughed lightly with his glass, and was about to follow, only to be stopped by an obsidian destroyer in a dress who came out of the hall.
"Ahem, Master Dick, the eldest princess has something important to discuss with you!"
Moam's voice was a little strange, but Dick, who was anxious about other things, didn't care, but looked at Sylvanas, who had already walked into the balcony, and asked Moamin in a low voice,
"Is it important? Can you wait, I have something more important to do, 20 minutes!"
The Obsidian Destroyer Lord hesitated for a moment, his gold-leafed face showing just the right amount of hesitation, and then responded,
"It's about the position of the lord of Theramore, and the eldest princess intends to announce this matter at today's banquet. ”
"Huh?"
Dick's eyes flashed, and the fiery emotions immediately subsided, he took a sip of his wine glass, soothing the liquid with the ice cubes, and then took a deep breath,
"Alright, lead the way!"
Moam bowed his head and turned to lead the way on the smooth marble floor, if Dick looked down at this time, he could see Moam's shadow reflected on the marble floor, it was a strange distortion, the shadow was completely inconsistent with its movements, like a phantom struggling in a mirror, trying to get out, but no matter how much it struggled, it could not attract the attention of the pensive Dick.
And as time passed, the shadow's struggle slowly slowed down, and eventually became a normal shadow.
After Liadlin and Verinde, Moam's attempt failed, and his followers were wiped out.
Now, it can only rely on Dick himself, but Cthun's mind control and dream construction are the housekeeping skills of the ancient gods, and no one really knows whether Dick can survive this catastrophe.
"Knight Dick, you're here. ”
Dick looked up with a sonorous voice in his warmth, and he saw the veiled eldest princess of Kalia, who had been dressed like this since she arrived in Theramore, signaling that she would not forget the hatred of destroying the country, and vowing to revive Lordaeron.
However, Dick was a little confused, because today's eldest princess was a little strange.
That's not the way she usually speaks.
"Well, Your Highness, I'm here! Moam told me that you have something important to discuss with me. ”
Dick leaned over slightly, and then heard the eldest princess's voice sound again, this time the voice became gentle, and the sonorous meaning in it disappeared, this is her normal appearance.
"I intend to transfer the lordship of Theramore to you, Knight Dick. ”
The eldest princess stood up and slowly walked to Dick's side, her voice carried a hint of tiredness, "For so many years, the people have trusted you very much, after I return to the northern frontier, I believe that you can govern this land well, you have the ability!"
Dick's heart was pounding, and though he didn't know when, his longing for Theramore was real, just as he was for Leadlin and Gianna, and even Sylvanas.
"I... I..."
"Don't shirk, Knight Dick, come, swear allegiance to the coat of arms of Lordaeron and Minethir, and I will announce this at a banquet in a moment's time!"
The eldest princess stretched out her hand and grabbed Dick's arm, the gentle touch made Dick's heart flutter, this kind of intimate contact with the eldest princess was almost non-existent, he stood in front of the family emblem of the royal family of Minethil without resistance, the paladin looked at the eldest princess of Kalia who was standing on the side, breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to kneel on the ground.
"Stupid... A sucker... Get down on your knees... You're... Die... It's dead!"
The same noise, faint, inaudible sound came to mind, and Dick's movements stopped abruptly.
