It was not so easy to help Varian recover his memory, and Gianna was confident that she could do it alone, but when the ritual actually began, Gianna realized that she could not unlock the dark magic that imprisoned Varian's mind by herself. This magic was not previously recorded in the Dalaran Library. Antonidas had never taught her anything like that, and it was completely unfamiliar territory.

In the end, it was with the help of Egwene that Varian was able to recover his memories with great difficulty.

However, Varian had just regained his memory on the front foot, and on the back foot, representatives of the Horde arrived outside the castle. A sense of foreboding soon took over Gianna's heart. She knew that perhaps the rescue had been revealed in the end, and Atwood said that there were fifteen people who had participated in the operation, and that only twelve had returned, and that three were missing...... And the probability that these three people were caught by the tribe, tortured and then confessed is very high.

Enduring the negative effects of exorcism, Gianna tidied up her clothes and went to the hall to meet the tribal envoys who had come from afar.

This time, the attitude of the representatives of the tribe was not so good. On behalf of the Horde, on behalf of the Thrall, the emissary arrogantly accused the Coalition of privately hijacking the Horde's property. The ghost wolf is the property of the tribe in their opinion......

"Ambassador, I don't know what has happened within the tribe during my time away from Orgrimmar. But the ghost wolf hasn't seen Orgrimmar since I left him. The cooperation between the tribe and the alliance is based on mutual trust between the two sides, and your unilateral accusations against me and the alliance are probably not conducive to the alliance and cooperation between our two sides. Not long after the Battle of Angela, is the cooperation agreement between the Horde and the Alliance so fragile? ”

"This is no small matter, Ambassador, you have to think about what's at stake. Also, do you have evidence for such unilateral accusations against me and the Alliance? Without evidence, how can conclusions be made? I don't know where you got this information or conclusion, but it's very bad for the alliance and the war between the alliance and the tribes, and I don't want to see war anymore......"

The tribal envoy was about to accuse Gianna, but Gianna took the lead and asked aggressively. Questions were thrown one after another, and you could see that the tribal ambassador was stunned listening below. was speechless for a moment, or even if she wanted to refute, she was speechless by Gianna...... Sitting next to Gianna, Ares felt that his woman was really becoming more and more like a leader, lying without drafting, and still being so calm and composed, that the other party was speechless. The talent of a politician gradually manifested itself in her.

"We have witnesses!"

The tribal emissary shouted loudly in the hall. Obviously, even if he maintained restraint at first, he was blocked by Gianna, and a fire came out of his belly.

"Human witnesses? What kind of witnesses? ”

Gianna asked calmly. There was no trace of a wave on her face, as if this matter really had nothing to do with her.

"We captured the goblin who was digging the tunnel, and he's a witness!"

The tribal ambassador said indignantly.

Originally, I thought that Gianna's face would become embarrassed, but in the next second, Gianna's reaction surprised the tribal ambassador again. I saw that she didn't have a trace of surprise. On the contrary, he walked down naturally and walked in front of the tribal envoy, his eyes were like a calm lake, and he was not alarmed.

"Alas, Ambassador, I don't think you understand what I mean. From beginning to end, I have maintained the fragile and peaceful relationship between the Alliance and the Horde. Do you have to stir up disputes? Just the one-sided words of a goblin? Why haven't you wondered if that goblin was sent by a third party to deliberately fabricate facts in order to sow discord between us? You must know that in this world, there are many people who want to destroy the peace between the alliance and the tribes, such as the Angela Zerg we met before, the Scourge Legion, or the demons. These forces are planning an invasion of Azeroth all the time, if the goblins were sent by them? And if you don't screen it, you blindly assume that it is the alliance that does it. Well, maybe things are going to go in a bad direction......"

Gianna said calmly, without a trace of emotion, making it impossible to detect her role in this matter. The ambassador of the tribe was stunned again...... He gritted his teeth, his face was red with anger, it was obvious that the alliance was at fault first, but in the end, Gianna said this, and it became the tribe's fault...... Orcs don't like to go around the bend, and they like to be direct and speak with their fists, but this tradition obviously doesn't work here? Do you just say you can't fight? This is Alpine City, the territory of the Alliance, Archmage Gianna is not a shot, as soon as you make a move, you, the little orc, will not be frozen into an ice sculpture immediately?

……

"Alas, it's finally over."

After seeing off the tribal ambassadors, Gianna sat on her throne and sighed. Just with this sentence, Ares already felt that something was wrong.

"What do you mean it's all over? It's just getting started, my dear. The future of the Alliance, the hope of the Alliance, lies in our efforts. ”

Walking up to Gianna, Ares said softly.

However, in Gianna's gaze, all Ares read was cold. This look was so familiar, it was in the Temple of Angela, and when Dalin was killed in battle, Gianna raised the battle flag of the Alliance. At that moment, it was so cold......

"We're going to take Varian back to the Eastern Continent with us and help him reclaim the throne, so there's hope for the Alliance. There was hope for Lordaeron. ”

Ares continued to speak enthusiastically.

However, Gianna's gaze was still so cold, and she pushed Ares's hand away.

"No, I can't go back with you."

"Why?!"

As soon as Gianna finished speaking, Ares felt his heart sink that the worries he had been worrying about had finally come true.

"Because I am now the leader of the Alpine Fortress and Theramore, my father's people, who followed me and my father to this continent to fight against the Horde, against the Zerg. But now, my father has died, and this city, these people, needs someone to protect them, someone needs to lead them. And I'm that person...... Ares, let's go, you have what you should do, and I, too, have what I should do......"

Gianna said, forcing herself not to look at Ares and turning her head to look ahead. The gaze was firm and cold. Ares, on the other hand, saw a faint sadness in his gaze. Yes, Ares also knows that Gianna is also bleeding in her heart at this moment. Originally, there was no barrier in the world, but everyone grew up in a different environment and had a different mission, so there was a gap. No one is wrong, it's just ......
