Chapter 15: Kel'thugad and the Cat
"The first night I entered Violet Academy, I stayed in the library until I fell asleep."
"On the first day, I didn't even go to a public class."
"The next day, I went to a public class. However, he fell asleep in class and demonstrated excellent basic arcane rune abilities. ”
"On the third day, I went to a public class."
"On the fourth day, I went to a public class."
"From the 5th day to now, I have been at Violet Academy for a total of ten days. I only went to three public classes, and the rest of the time I spent in the big library except for sleeping and eating. ”
“……”
Kael'thas Sunstrider looked at the paper in his hand and raised it, and it spontaneously combusted without a wind and vanished.
"I went twice. He didn't come at all. In front of the Prince, his close companion, Magister Romans, whispered.
"This isn't a conformist guy." His Highness Kael'thas shook his head with a smile and said, "It's not your fault. My dear Romance. ”
"Then ......," Romans hesitated, looking at His Highness whom he respected the most, "Shall I go on?" He didn't seem to have any intention of going to a public class. Judging by the fact that he was able to master ten basic arcane runes, he should have already embarked on the arcane path. ”
"No need to go. Let's observe first. After thinking about it, His Royal Highness the Prince said.
"But you can send someone to contact him and see what kind of personality he is......"
"Yes."
"Let Solanlian go. She used to have a good relationship with Leanda. ”
"Okay."
“……”
……
……
Due to the fact that half of the blood in his body was unbeknownst to Orondo, the gaze from the northern magic kingdom of the continent was cast on him early.
On the afternoon of the tenth day in Dalaran, he walked out of the great library in a dizzy state.
On the first floor of the Dalaran Magic Library, there are a total of 31,656 books, more than 90% of which are related to occultism, spell casting, and the rest are other comprehensive knowledge that is useful for mages.
He read them all.
Orondo felt exhausted.
Although he didn't need to use his brain to read these books, he only provided the eyes and body, and the analysis and recording of these books were actually the eyes of truth.
But after such a non-stop "flipping book", he will also be tired! After all, in terms of biological age, he is only 13 years old this year.
So when the 13-year-old, dizzy, Orondo came out of the library, surprised to see Kel'thugad, who was a head taller than himself, and he was with the cat again.
Unlike the last time he was seen feeding a large group of library cats, this time the indifferent teenager was teasing a kitten.
The indifferent young mage squatted on the ground, and the long mage robe fell to the ground like that, and he was not too dirty. He carried a fluffy ball of string in his hand and seduced in front of the kitten.
When the kitten saw a plush ball on the ground, it should be very novel. So, he stretched out his paw and plucked the pompom, which rolled under the control of Kel'thugad, and the kitten became more and more energetic the more he played.
The kitten played with a serious expression, and so did the expression on Kel'thugad's cold face. It's as if he's not teasing a cat, he's doing an advanced arcane experiment!
Orondo really couldn't think of the future of Kel'thugad, what kind of distortion in his heart would cause such a huge change.
The change was so great that he went from being an outwardly aloof, but actually animal-loving creature, to the first lich in Azeroth.
"It's so cute......" Standing not far away, Orondo couldn't help but whisper.
Kel'thugad, who had devoted himself wholeheartedly, realized the arrival of the others, and he looked up at Orondo as if no one was speaking.
"I said, this kitten is cute. No, it should be said......" Orondo remembered the three raccoon cats he had raised in the library in his previous life as a librarian, and his heart was a little soft, "Cats, they are all cute. ”
Kel'thugad threw the stuffed ball to the kitten, and the cute kitten pounced on it and bit it as if it were a big mouse.
The expressionless young mage stood up and looked at Orondo, "Aren't you supposed to be in the library at this time?" ”
Orondo shrugged his shoulders and said, "I've read all the books on the first floor, and I can't go up to the second floor, so it's useless to stay inside." ”
"Done?" Orondo saw the expression on his face for the first time, a slightly surprised expression. "You've read all of the 31,656 books?"
Orondo nodded.
The look of surprise on Kel'thugad's face faded and turned into the same poker face again, "I haven't even been able to finish it." ”
"I'm done." Orondo doesn't care.
Kel'thugad looked at him, and suddenly said quickly, "What does Alodi's Book of Secondary Herbs say, page 13, verse 3?" ”
"Is this testing me? Haha~" Orondo laughed.
"But where you say it is: "May my enemies never have access to this information. May I be able to see the light of the arcane light shine on all of Azeroth in my lifetime]"
"What is written in the last section of page 28 of Emergency Magic 101: Expert Advice?"
"Even if your opponent is a flaming creature, you can still subdue it with fireball. Shoot fireballs at it! The results may surprise you! ”
"The School of Arcane Magic, p. 1, verse 1."
"Colorful magic can be used for a variety of purposes. Researchers of magic have found that the easiest and most effective way to understand the fundamentals of magic is to divide this mysterious discipline into eight ............"
Ancient Herbs, p. 31, verse 3.
He also realized the third thing, and saw it as a pact with the gods who had given us the Shaskag grass. So Togus would gather a large amount of Shaskag grass and bundle it up as a sacrifice......"
“……”
Kel'thugad read the names and chapters of many of the books on the first floor of the Great Library quickly and steadily, and Orondo read their contents faster and more steadily.
As he finished the sixth book, Kel'thugad finally stopped and looked at Orondo in a daze.
Viscount Sephorosa raised his eyebrows and chuckled, "You can't sleep all these days I've been in the library, right?" ”
Kel'thugad did not answer him, but said: "On the first floor of the library, I spent half a year reading 20,000 books closely related to magic. There are a lot of things I've forgotten now. ”
"Uh-huh~" Orondo disagreed. "You are you, I am me. Every intelligent individual is different, because everyone has a different soul. ”
"That's right." Kel'thugad seems to agree with him, "Every individual is different!" Every soul has its own charm. Hello...... Orondo, Seferrosa. ”
The indifferent young mage greeted him for the first time: "My name is Kel'thugad. ”
It's completely different from the last time.
Orondo raised his eyebrows again.
It seems that this is the official acquaintance.
