Arthas believed that his expression must be as exaggerated as that of the goblins who had been robbed of their gold coins. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

To be honest, Arthas, who has experienced two failed lives, has seen a lot now, has been a Lich King, has carried the Ash Messenger, fought the Burning Legion, and anal the Silver Northern Expedition, if you really count these experiences, few people standing in this hall now can compare to him, even if they say that their too young, too simple Tucson is broken, I am afraid that it is quite confident.

However, even this could not change the surprise in Alsace's heart now.

As well as surprises.

Emilia Minahill, who has not appeared in her previous two lives. Now that my father and old tree have sprouted, such a sister has come out, which obviously means that the world will not go as it was this time. For this change, Alsace not only did not panic at all to lose the advantage of experience, but was pleasantly surprised. Because only a changed future will bring hope to break free from the shackles of fate.

"Arthas, why are you crying?"

"I'm just, happy, Uther......" Arthas wiped his tears, "Well, I didn't expect me to be an older brother one day." ”

"Yes, Arthas, from this day onwards, you are not the youngest, so take on the responsibility of being a brother," Terenus said as he handed the still immature little princess into the hands of the maid, and then reached out and touched Arthas's head, "In the meantime, Arthas, I have heard about your deeds in Alterac and Stratholme, which is enough to give me reason to believe that you are ready to take on the responsibility of heir to a kingdom." ”

"But...... I'm only ten years old. ”

"What about a ten-year-old?" Terenus said, "Let's not talk about Arthas, there are many people who can't do it in a lifetime, let's just say that in the history of mankind, there is not a person who directly became a king at the age of ten. Now there is a shield for the Father to protect you from the wind and rain, what's the problem? ”

"No, I just feel that I need to learn more now," Alsace said, "and I think a teacher is the best birthday present for me than to be in power." ”

"Oh, it's a surprise to me that you can think of this," Terenus was a little surprised, but more relieved, "but here, I'm going to tell you one thing in front of everyone, and that is - everyone, your teacher, and your own eyes are the best teaching materials." ”

"Yes."

"Of course, the teacher is still looking for you, Uther?" Terenus turned to look at Uther, "Do you have any thoughts on this?" ”

"I would like to inform Your Majesty that His Highness Arthas has completed the cultivation of the power of the Holy Light, and now His Highness no longer needs our extra guidance, so I suggest that you find another path in order to broaden Your Highness's horizons even more."

"Oh? It's an interesting statement," Terenus thought for a moment, "Arthas, where do you think you want to study?" ”

"Dalaran."

"Why?"

"Because it's the capital of human wisdom," Arthas said as he looked at Khadgar, who asked, "and I hope to learn from that city the wisdom that mankind has accumulated for thousands of years." ”

"What an ambitious child," Khadgar smiled and nodded, and then, looking up at Terenus, who was still a little skeptical, "Your Majesty, you may have some doubts, but as Your Highness said, Dalaran is not only the city of Arcane as most people think, but it is also a city of wisdom, and I believe that the vast amount of tome there will be, and will be enough to bring a wise heir to Lordaeron and the Alliance." All that is needed now is your Majesty's permission. ”

"Since Master Khadgar personally recommended it, there is nothing to refuse," Terenus nodded, "then, Arthas, I will appoint you as Lordaeron's ambassador to Dalaran, and I hope that you will be able to obtain the knowledge you need in that city of wisdom, as you say." ”

"Of course, father." Arthas bowed, "I will certainly live up to your expectations." ”

This time, I won't let you down again, father.

After a short meeting, because of the tension of the battle situation, the adults once again started to discuss the battle situation. Arthas and Varian, on the other hand, were driven out to prepare for Dalaran.

Of course, Varian is not going to Dalaran, and the 16-year-old has finally gained de jure power. Therefore, he also traveled south with Arthas, and his next task was to lead the Azeroth exile army that had been organized in Alterac to establish a stronghold in the southern part of the Silver Pine Forest, in order to echo the defense of the kingdoms of Dalaran and Gilneis.

"In this way, it seems that Varian has finally become a leader in his own right, which is really gratifying."

"If it weren't for the previous operation in Alterac, I'm afraid they wouldn't be so relieved, in the end, it still depends on your plan in Alsace." Varian didn't seem very happy about Arthas's congratulations, "And to be honest, my mind is a mess right now, and although I have a rough idea of what the ultimate goal is, I don't know what I'm going to do at the moment. ”

"That's not right, if it weren't for Varian that you proved yourself on the battlefield, how could the Grand Duke let you, the last descendant of the kingdom of Azeroth, go to the front? After all, it's all up to you," Arthas shook his head, "but when it comes to what to do at hand, I have a little idea, and I might be able to give you some inspiration." ”

"Oh, tell me about it."

"Actually, it's very simple, just think about what you can do now," Arthas said, "Azeroth's exile army is unevenly equipped, and it is impossible to go toe-to-toe with the forces of the Destroying Hand, and Dalaran and Gilneth tend to be closed off and self-contained, so the aggressive strategy can be abandoned." And compared to strategic training, I don't think any of us can compare to the Grand Duke of Lothar and the other generals, so there is no need to be too entangled in the training and selection of the army, so I ......"

"The most important thing is my identity? Do you continue to gather people who have not forgotten the old country? ”

"No, no, no, if that's all there is to it, then enough has been done before, strictly speaking, this identity has little development value other than emphasizing your legitimacy," Arthas waved his hand, "so the most important thing now is publicity." ”

"Propaganda?"

"People's hearts have temperature, if you just use your identity to call, after a long time, it will cool down after all. Lordaeron's land is fertile and the climate is suitable, and if he had a stable life here, it is likely that he would not choose to abandon everything he already has and venture south because of a little illusory feelings, and continue to fight the remaining orcs in order to return to his homeland, which has become a ruin......" Looking at Varian with a thoughtful expression, Arthas continued, "So, it is necessary for you to let the gathered people know what they are fighting for, and most importantly, this reason for fighting, It can't be an ethereal righteousness, it can't be the glory of the Urion family, but something they can see, they can feel, and they see it as a treasure. ”

"I see, I see what you mean," Varian nodded heavily, "Indeed, all my previous education was to emphasize some ethereal things, which may have worked better in the Chengping era, but in this chaotic time, those things ...... It has obviously lost the meaning of having people follow. ”

"Well...... You can't just throw it all away," Arthas said dryly, "there's only so much I can think of, and you'll have to do the rest." ”

"Thanks, Arthas," said Varian, "but I've heard you're heading to Dalaran...... Those mages, they won't do anything to you, will they? ”

"Hey, Varian, you're afraid of mages? No, I remember that the kingdom of Azeroth also has its own arcane law school, and the great sage Medivin is also ......" Arthas looked at Varian's pale face, and his tone became serious, "Varian, you don't think that mages are mystics and psychotics like many stupid guys, do you?" Or do you think the untrustworthy cannot be trusted? ”

"This ......"

"Actually, you're right, after all, they're a bunch of guys who study mystical powers," Arthas thought for a moment, "but if I had to choose, I wouldn't give my back to the mages, but I like to be friends with them...... If they fancy me. ”

"Uh...... Why? ”

"Because mages are a group of seekers who pursue arcane truths, the feelings and constraints of mortals do not apply to them for the most part, and therefore, no one knows what they will do under the temptation of arcane," Arthas said, "but at the same time, it is precisely because of this attachment that their feelings are simple and easy to understand, and it is very easy and worthwhile to be friends, because the path of arcane is lonely, and no mage will easily give up their hard-won friends." ”

"What a strange idea...... Alsace, is this really your own experience? ”

"Me? No, how could I be, I'm only ten years old. Arthas shook his head, "But...... A lot of people have said that, so it's okay for me to believe it, isn't it? ”

"Well, since you insist," Varian visibly still couldn't let go, "but, Arthas, if those mages really want to do anything to you, flee to me, and as your brother, I will do everything in my power to protect you." ”

"Thank you very much, though I don't think I need to run away."
