Mnozdor said with a smile as if he knew what Nozdorm was thinking.

"At least we know that Elune hasn't given up on this world yet...... It was enough to know this, she would not watch the world ruin. ”

Nozdom nodded, acknowledging that Elune's arrival meant a lot to the world of Azeroth, which was destined to be destroyed at the end of the Hour - after all, it was Elune's world, and she could stop it whenever she wanted to.

Nozdom even suspects that the so-called end moment is inseparable from Elune.

"So here I am, my brother. You and I have the same goal, to protect the world from accidents, and after the endless future, this will be the only remaining timeline, and countless new possibilities will start from here, and the river of time will never stop. ”

Mnozdor's voice grew quieter and quieter, and at the same time, his figure faded and faded, and finally disappeared completely into the air, leaving Nozdorm alone on his high platform, thoughtful.

……

What happened on the other side of the Endless Sea was unknown to Arthas, and he had no time to worry about the disappearance of the Red Dragon Queen when he returned to Lordaeron, as he was attending an emergency meeting between the upper echelons of the Alliance.

Arugao has been escorted back to Dalaran by the mages to take care of him, and the fact that the kingdom of Gilneth is about to provoke an internal war among the human race is something that the countries of the alliance attach great importance to.

"Is Jean crazy? Does he really think he's going to be able to resist the entire Alliance?"

Solas Tolbaine from the Arathi Highlands knocked on the table in front of him and said loudly - as the king of the kingdom of Stormgard, it was not a matter of a day or two that he and the king of the kingdom of Gilneth were at odds with Jean Greyman, and he had long wanted to teach the greedy and arrogant "Greybeard" a lesson.

It was because of ignorance that he made such a stupid decision. We have to make this guy understand that the Alliance will not tolerate his audacity any longer. ”

Daylin Prodmoor, lord of the Sea Kingdom of Kurtilas, spoke out loudly.

"But...... King Dalin, your army shouldn't be able to go to war, right?"

Due to the importance of the matter, Varian Ureon, King of the Kingdom of Azeroth, did not attend the meeting, and was replaced by the regent Anduin Lothar, the true ruler of Stormwind.

Now, the graying old marshal is pointing out the advantages of the Kingdom of Gilneth - their coastline is dotted with reefs, and the large fleet of the Kingdom of Kurtilas does not pose a threat to them.

"That's a thing of the past, Lothar. The dwarven allies of Ironforge have made some changes to our fleet, and now our fleet is more than capable of attacking the kingdom of Gilneth across those reefs. ”

Daylin Proudmore said.

"The forces of Stormwind are ready to do your bidding, Terenus, and make your decision. ”

Hearing the Admiral's assurance, Anduin Lothar nodded, indicating his usual firm stance that the Orc invasion had destroyed the kingdom of House Wrynn, but it had also taught them the value of allies.

Without the full support of the Kingdom of Lordaeron, the rebuilding of Stormwind might have been put on hold until now, and Anduin Lothar was grateful to King Terenus for his selflessness and intended to repay His Majesty with the same support.

"Ironforge has no intention of interfering in the internal affairs of the human kingdom, but, Your Majesty King Terenus, if you ask for it, my brother will send all the warriors to support our allies. ”

Muradine Copperbeard from Ironforge represents his brother in the position of the Ironforge Dwarves, as for the Hammerhammer Dwarves...... Although their emissary, Furstad Brutehammer, was not present at this meeting, there is no doubt that the two dwarves will always stand on the same side.

"So ......"

King Terenus nodded gratefully to Muradin's Copperbeard, then turned his gaze to Archmage Antonidas sitting at the end of the table.

From the very beginning of this meeting, the master of Lordaeron sensed the anomaly of his mage friends—not to mention that even the dwarves had expressed their support for Lordaeron, but Archmage Antonidas was slow to speak on behalf of Dararen.

What went wrong?

- King Terenus thought suspiciously, waiting for the master of Kenrito to give him an explanation.

"I'm sorry, but I'm afraid...... Dalaran can't support you enough, Terenus. ”

Sure enough, after hesitating for a long time, Archmage Antonidas spit out a surprise answer with difficulty in the eyes of everyone.

"......What? Dalaran intends to side with the Kingdom of Gilneth in this conflict, and what good can Jean give you?"

In a hurry, Solas Tolbairn couldn't help but say something disrespectful.

Neither Arthas nor King Terenus had yet to speak, and so did the others, who were more calm in their minds than King Soras, and they all knew that Archmage Antonidas would definitely give an explanation.

As for the argument, it can be completely after this mage explains.

"When I expelled the Gilnes mage before, Dalaran already had some complaints within himself...... The Kenrito Council was protested by quite a few mages, and they were all worried...... Things could turn out to be the end of the 'Renaissance of Magic', so ......," Archmage Antonidas said with a look of embarrassment on his face.

"It's ridiculous......"

King Solas shook his head and said—he had long thought these mages were unreliable, and now it seemed that they were.

"Just because of this?"

Arthas, much calmer than King Solas, sat up straight and stared at Gianna's teacher and asked.

“…… There are a few other reasons...... As you know, there are not only human mages in Dalaran, but also the High Elf mages of Quel'Thalas, and they ...... It seems to be believed that Dalaran has interfered in too many human kingdom affairs, contrary to the city's consistent neutral stance since its founding. ”

Archmage Antonidas was questioned by Arthas before he revealed the real reason.

"Hah! The High Elves just like to be neutral, they do it when the orcs come, and they do it when we fight the trolls!"

King Solas let out a sarcastic remark, ignoring Archmage Antonidas' awkward stance.

"Is this Dalaran's last position? I mean...... Archmage Antonidas, is it already a decision of the Kenrito Council?"

Seeing that his father was silent, Arthas continued to ask.

"Alsace, so to speak. Please forgive us for our decision if...... I fear that Dalaran will be divided again. ”

Archmage Antonidas said to Arthas in an apologetic tone.

Arthas nodded, but didn't say anything - he knew that Archmage Antonidas was the decision-maker of Dalaran after all, not the court mage of the Lordaeron Kingdom, and it was impossible for him to ignore Dalaran's interests.

If that's the case, Jean will definitely be more determined to start a war...... We need to be ready as soon as possible. ”

King Terenus finally spoke, and instead of reproaching Dalaran for retreating, he spoke to his other allies.

"Needless to say, I've been wanting to kick Jean's ass/stock for a long time!"

King Solas shouted loudly, without the grace of a royal majesty.

"Yourself? You mean...... This time you're going to take your people to the kingdom of Gilneth?"

From King Soras's words, Daylin Proudmore heard something unusual.

"Of course, how could I possibly let go of such a good opportunity?
