42. Arthas: Kaizi, you're enough, I'm here to be friends with you!

After saying this, looking at the way Esni pouted, Arthas couldn't help but laugh. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

In fact, he already knew that his father had to find a companion for him to read, just because he was too good at tossing in the war before, so he found a sheath for this wild horse. All along, Esni's actions were undoubtedly in line with this arrangement, for example, guiding Arthas to a safe area that she could control when she was in Dalaran, and when Arthas was involved in the protection of the Staff of Sargeras, she used her creation technology to draw her eyes away, so much so that she had just used words to induce herself to return to the royal capital.

Although it looks indifferent, he will not forget his position, and Arthas also likes this kind of life of teasing each other, of course, it would be more fun if this little girl who has always been indifferent showed a panicked expression. Intuition tells Arthas that Esni should be cuter than the current one.

However, this opportunity to make the other party break the merit is not so easy to find, and Arthas is not in a hurry. At that moment, the two of them followed the road of the Silver Pine Forest to the south, and in a few days, they arrived at the defense area that Garissus was once responsible for, Burning Wood Village.

Seeing that Burning Wood Village didn't seem to be released from the state of war, Arthas suddenly remembered the man Galliss. Of course, for this person who dared to give up his life for the sake of his goal, Arthas could not let him die like that, in fact, now Gallisus is following the Auden father and son to open a new stronghold in Northrend. In terms of personal qualities, Gallisus was far superior to the Auden father and son, and the other party even made a record of being able to single-handedly take on a mammoth colony, which really surprised Arthas.

"At least there's plenty of arable land out there," Isni seemed to misunderstand the sentimental expression on Arthas's face, "I think the disaster caused by the war in the past will soon recover, right?" ”

"Perhaps," Alsace knew the future, noncommittal, "but we're not here to see how this place is recovering, our goal is the shelter here." ”

For humans now, seeing the orcs in the shelter will all suffer a psychological shock.

The orcs in the shelter have endured poor living conditions, dirt, disease, and hunger have always accompanied them, and after the effect of demonic blood has degraded, even the strongest orcs cannot endure the pain caused by the desire for evil power, and lose their purpose, and only live as slaves, which will completely wear down their willpower.

In such a situation, you can imagine what the orcs in the shelter look like. Even the most hard-hearted people, seeing such an orc, in addition to the pleasure of revenge, must have some sadness.

And what if the observer is presented to a mother who has to feed her child even if she is already skinny?

Arthas remembered that Gianna was greatly touched when she saw the orc's mother. Motherhood from the depths of a woman's soul made her resonate with that mother, and thus reversed her perception of orcs in one fell swoop. For the flower that was just raised in a greenhouse at the time, such an impact was enough to make her change a lot, and even want to let them go.

Alsace was therefore also somewhat concerned about Asni's views.

"It's pathetic," Esney's opening line is almost identical to Gianna's, "to be honest, I didn't know orcs would have children of their own. ”

"Of course, even rats have children," Arthas teased, not as irritated as he was when he first heard it, "so what about the asylum?" ”

"A waste of taxes, a lot of people say," Isni seemed to have lost interest in the orcs, and she turned her head, her purple eyes reflecting Arthas's blonde hair, "However, Your Majesty Terenus may have other plans, so one way or another." ”

"Don't you think they don't belong here?"

"Does Your Highness think so?" Esni asked rhetorically, and then she looked at Arthas's embarrassed look and laughed, "Your Highness doesn't need to test me, after all, I am Mograini's daughter, and I won't waste extra sympathy on them." Of course, the same goes for anger. ”

Indeed, Esney never seemed to be overly aggressive with the word orc, not even resistant. To her, orcs seemed to have no special meaning like His Royal Highness, a word symbolizing status.

This discovery somehow made Arthas a little frustrated, so much so that he subconsciously muttered, "I really don't know what can make you feel a little touched." ”

Isni looked at Arthas in surprise, then she turned to look at the orc asylum down the hill - the kind of shelter is everywhere in southern Lordaeron - her eyes flickered, and she said, "Maybe it's because His Highness always shows me these things everywhere?" Actually, I'm still very interested in novelty gadgets. ”

Of course children do.

Arthas complained, but he didn't realize that he was also a child in the eyes of his father and Uther.

"Actually, I'm a little curious about dwarves," Isni continued, looking at Arthas's disapproving look, "When I was in Dalaran, I often heard from my teacher that dwarves have their own special engineering creations, but I never came into contact with them, so it would be nice to have a chance to see them." ”

"That's a true answer for your status as a tectonic expert," Arthas smiled at this, "Actually, I remember that the Thunderspear Legion of Ironforge had set up their base somewhere south at my father's behest, to assist Riptide in dealing with the threat of forest trolls. If we have the chance, we can go and see ...... No, why don't you check it out now? ”

"But we've been out for days......"

"So before we go there, we have to report to Master Antonidas in Dalaran," Arthas said, "and in that case, both Master Fording and my father will be at ease." ”

===

Because of Arthas's death in the Second War, the relationship between Dalaran and Lordaeron is now extraordinary. Compared with the xenophobic city in memory, the current Dalaran is at least able to accept many foreign travelers. Just like the tavern opened by Tigul and Fred before, if it was the Dalaran in Arthas's memory, such a tavern would not exist, but the entire creation area might have disappeared.

After all, not every Engineer is capable of casting spells.

When Arthas and Esni arrived in Dalaran City, it was dusk, and the city had not changed much from when they left it, and it was clear that after the initial period of rapid construction, even the city of mages would inevitably fall into worldly troubles.

"As you can see, Master, the mage also eats and drinks," said the mage in charge of reception, "but in fact, Dalaran is not a good trade route now, after all, the lake of Lordamere is still blocked. ”

"But the blockade must have been lifted recently," Arthas said, "and Father is going to set up a post on the Broken Isles, so that there will always be more caravans than on the King's Way, right?" ”

"Perhaps," the mage was noncommittal, "Master Antonidas is already waiting for you, and there is still work to be done, so I will take my leave." ”

"Work well."

Seeing off the receiving mage, Arthas and Esni walked through the streets of Dalaran. Looking up at the sky, the Divine Barrier had already dyed the entire sky in liple, and under the influence of this huge defense system, the entire Dalaran was covered with a layer of mysterious light, which was quite a bit of the City of Arcane.

"Actually, I suddenly feel that there are fewer merchants here, and it is because of this sacred barrier," Arthas said, "After all, most people still have a fear of spells, and this barrier of spells expresses a closed and self-locked attitude of Dalaran." Under such a double threat, sooner or later, this place will become the same as it used to be. ”

"Is there anything wrong with a quiet place to study, dear Master Arthas?"

Just as Arthas was uttering his words, a magnetic and very high-profile voice came. Arthas's face fell to the ground when he heard the question, which was actually a rebuttal, but then he changed his expression to a poker face as if he had changed his face, and turned his head and said:

"Isn't that energetic Dalaran you loved, Master Kael'thas before?"

As a long-lived species, Kael'thas has not changed, but the gap between the fast-growing Alsace and him is smaller, if you ignore the height difference of about ten centimeters, it is said that two peers are standing together, and there is no sense of disobedience.

However, compared to the ignorance of Arthas at the beginning, the current Kael'thas can no longer underestimate the young human in front of him. After all, even among the elves, there are very few people who can contribute such academic achievements at a young age, and such an accomplished human is naturally worthy of the eyes of Kael'thas Sunchaser.

"Master Arthas," he bit the word master very hard, and Kael'thas's tone was full of regret, "As the youngest master in the history of Dalaran, you, you have disappointed me so much. ”

Ha? What's crazy about this elf?

"As such a gifted person, you actually abandoned the arcane path and chose the intrigue between the nobles......" Taking Arthas's astonishment as irrefutable, Kael'thas said to himself, "Of course, as a child of the nobility, I can understand your helplessness, but you shouldn't, you shouldn't, you still have to tie up people with arcane talents by your side, wasting her outstanding talent in arcane!" ”

"Uh......" Looking at Kael'thas with a look of righteous indignation, Arthas felt a little confused, "Wait a minute, Master, it seems that we are a little bit at odds with each other...... Well, I don't actually have a talent for spellcasting, I remember you know. ”

"Academic talent is just as important as spellcasting talent!" Kael'thas glared, but looking at Arthas's helpless look, his scholarly fanaticism seemed to be poured with cold water, and he involuntarily regained his reserve, "Ahem, okay, you go on." ”

"Thank you, that, second question, who is that spellcasting genius you are talking about?"

Even though he repeatedly emphasized the need for elegance in his heart, Kael'thas was still displeased by the ignorant look of the human in front of him: "Why do you knowingly ask, dear Master Arthas, isn't that genius standing beside you?" ”

Arthas turned his head as the elf meant, and saw Esney standing quietly aside, and then, under the interference of the poisonous radio waves that came from nowhere, there was only one sentence left in his heart.

"I'm going, even if Gianna isn't there, Kaizi, do you still have to be mad with me because of a girl?!"
