52 Cruel Light
Varian's pupils shrank suddenly, and the murderous intent in his eyes was undisguised.
That guy wants to take Tiffin away, absolutely not!
"How? His Majesty King Varian. North, however, seemed to be unaware, and repeated it with a smile on his face. I promise that we will send her back to Theramore after proving that she has nothing to do with the matter. ”
Alex almost couldn't help but cheer for Nathanos. An alliance that was brought back to Orgrimmar and still wants to return to Theramore alive? Ha...... What a great idea! He thought to himself, was he going to return to Theramore as an undead when the time came?
Thrall remained silent, indicating that he apparently agreed with Nathanos' suggestion as well.
Gianna was anxious, she knew better than anyone that Varian would never hand over Thea. But for now, Thrall was more obviously suspicious of the Alliance's position in the assassination than Thea.
"Sal, maybe the assassin is just trying to sow discord between you." She said carefully and carefully. "Peace is hard to come by, but it is easy to destroy."
"Gianna." Sal glanced at Gianna, and then stopped.
"Thrall, do you want to listen to this human woman?" Garrosh couldn't contain the anger in his heart, and raised the axe in his hand and pointed it at Gianna.
"I'm not a mage, but ...... It's obvious...... This young lady has the power of magic in her. Alex said abruptly with a slight tilt of his chin. It's supposed to be a very clever disguise magic. But can't you see such a spell as a ** teacher, Ms. Gianna? Perhaps, her identity is very problematic. ”
Alex's words were like pouring a spoonful of boiling oil into a hot pan, which made the already tense atmosphere even more eerie.
North almost wanted to glare at him fiercely, and he looked hard at his toes to restrain his emotions. If Thea's identity is really revealed, he can imagine that the situation will be reversed immediately. Then his position and that of the Forsaken will be very unfavorable.
Is...... Pig teammates.
Alex was still unaware of his discovery.
Gianna bit her lip. She couldn't explain it. But she knew that if she dared to remove Thea's disguise, the first one to turn against her would be Varian.
Shia...... She turned to look at Thea. The gaze is complex.
All eyes were on Sia.
Thea had never felt that her gaze was so heavy that she almost collapsed.
"Gianna." Sal looked at Gianna and spoke, his eyes faintly urging.
Gianna clenched her staff tightly.
Thea let go of Anduin in her arms and handed him over to Broll. "Please take care of him for me." She whispered.
Her voice was heard. Varian's heart shuddered—what was she going to do?
"Chief Sal, do you doubt the Alliance or me?" Thea turned and walked forward, her voice calm.
"You are the Alliance! Does it make any difference? Garrosh said puzzled, thinking that the woman in front of him had said something nonsense.
North's eyebrows furrowed, and his lips pursed. She seems to have become a little different from what she used to be, and now it's even more interesting. Before, she wouldn't have spoken like that.
Varian's hand gripped Salameni tightly, his heart filled with exasperation.
He should go back to Stormwind! He should have known long ago that there could be no peace between the Alliance and the Horde.
This fragile thing!
Let's go to war! Let's go to war! The ghost wolf roared and galloped in his heart.
Thea walked slowly past him.
Almost subconsciously, Varian reached out to grab Shia's arm.
Thea's hand was held in the palm of his hand. The little hands were cold, and the coldness reached his heart.
"Your Majesty, leave a line for each other." Xia whispered.
Varian stubbornly took her hand.
"I don't want Anduin to see it...... So let me go to the tribe like this. ”
Varian gritted his teeth.
He is the king, and perhaps he has to need peace.
But if the price to be paid is hers. Such a peace means nothing to him. Even his own woman has to give up the peace in exchange, his pride will never allow it!
He was about to speak.
A white light fell on Thea.
"Purify!"
Everyone was stunned.
Surrounded by holy light, the white light fades...... Thea's original appearance is revealed.
Thin cheeks, loss of blood-pale skin, a glittering glow under red eyes...... That's what Thea the Forsaken looks like.
"Alex!" Liadline was the first to react.
Alex held up his purification hand in a daze, and looked at the woman in front of him in disbelief.
Thea almost tried to hide her face and run away, but she didn't. She forced herself to straighten her waist calmly. Raising his head, he gently withdrew his hand from the desperate and stunned Varian's hand, and saluted.
"General Blighter, his subordinates are incompetent." Her voice was cold, and North trembled.
Everyone was dumbfounded by this turn of events.
"Your ...... Subordinate? Thrall said with a frown at Nathanos.
From Thrall's point of view, if the Forsaken woman is really a spy. Then she is now exposed. The form is very bad for the tribe.
Thea smiled coldly at North.
North smiled wryly. "She was indeed my medical officer, but she disappeared at Thunder Bluff a while ago," North looked at Varian pointedly. The rune totem can testify, so I really don't know why she's here. …… However, since she is my subordinate. Naturally, you're going back with me! I'll give you an explanation when I get back. ”
Garrosh's eyes widened, and he was about to speak, but was interrupted.
Varian charged behind Thea and grabbed Thea's neck with one hand.
"The tribe wants to forget about it?" His eyes were blood-red. "When you first doubted the Alliance, you didn't have such a tone!"
Thea tried to speak, but found that Varian's hand was holding her tight, the thin gold thread of his gloves digging into her skin. He wouldn't let her speak.
With his other free hand, Varian pulled out the freshly signed parchment roll, crumpled it up and threw it into the air.
The cold light of Salameni flashed.
"Varian!" Gianna blurted out, "You can't! ”
It's too late. The parchment had fallen to the ground in pieces.
Varian looked at her fiercely. "Why not! I'll tell you now, Gianna. I can't accept this kind of hypocritical peace! ”
Thea closed her eyes in pain, she knew where his anger was coming from. But didn't he understand what she was doing it for?
"She's my captive!" Varian pointed his sword at Thrall. "Just like you questioned just now - how do I know if your tribe is behind this!"
"The tribe never engages in intrigues!" Garrosh roared.
"Anyway, if you want to bring her back to the tribe, let's go to war here!" Varian's sword doesn't shy away from it.
Nathanos looked at Varian's surprisingly angry attitude, thoughtful.
"General," Sal began, "that's your subordinate......"
Garrosh looked at North with an unkind gaze. Although he is in alliance with the Forsaken, Garrosh does not believe in these "dead men" at all. Now he even wondered if there was a conspiracy of the Forsaken behind it.
"During the time she was missing, I didn't know exactly what had happened." North looked at Thea with regret in his eyes, "So I can't guarantee if she's involved in the conspiracy or anything else." I can only guarantee now that this matter has nothing to do with us forsaken - in the name of Her Majesty the Queen. If His Majesty Varian insists on this in order to correct our innocence, I believe that Thea will be more than willing to stay. ”
Thea felt the tight hand on her neck finally loosen a little.
"Gianna, I don't have anything more to talk to these guys!" Varian said, dropping his big hand and wrapping Thea's head and face tightly. "Borrow your interrogation room." After saying that, he grabbed Xia by the neck with one hand and put her around her waist with the other, and hurriedly coerced her out of the courtyard.
"Daddy......" Anduin looked up at Brow, a little strange and confused. Miss Shia is a spy for the Horde? ”
Brower looked at Anduin with a complicated gaze. Because Thea had always had his back to Anduin, Anduin did not see the face of Thea's Forsaken.
"Leave it to your father, I think he'll take care of it."
"Don't you think it's a little strange......" Alex whispered into Liadrin's ear, "Nathanos' attitude...... Varian's attitude ......"
A small, soft white hand suddenly touched the side of his waist.
"Arcane silence."
Alex was suddenly speechless.
Liadline glanced at him in hatred and withdrew the soft liner that had been attached to Alex.
"I'll take you to the airship station." Seeing that the matter was irreparable, Gianna was helpless. In the end, all her efforts came to naught.
"I'm sorry! Jaina. Sal also took out the parchment in his hand. A flame shook and the parchment turned to ashes. "I had a lot of expectations for this meeting."
"It's the same with Varian."
The two of them walked side by side and talked in a low voice.
"I thought Varian might be different from the other Alliance leaders! But, in fact, he still ......"
"No, Sal, my old friend, you don't understand. Our efforts almost succeeded! ”
"I understand! If the Assassins had come to sabotage the talks, I would say, they did," Sal sighed. "But tribes also have tribal dignity."
Gianna was silent.
She couldn't explain it. Unbeknownst to Thrall, it was Varian's Scales that he had touched today.
