Chapter 258: Guarding the Courtyard

"Lord Lothar!"

A somewhat muffled voice came from the front.

"Why don't you return to Stormwind?" Reginald Windsor asked with a puzzled expression, as Lothar's lieutenant, he had clearly heard the conversation inside the door.

Wendthor shouted a little weakly, "Lord Lothar, please think twice, Stormwind and King Varian still need your help......"

"Isn't relying on you, Bervar, and Gavin Rad enough to help Varian and Stormwind?" Anduin-Lothar glanced at the loyal paladin and said lightly.

"I ......" Wendsol was speechless for a moment, and after a moment he slowly spoke, "I think we could do better if you were around......"

"So one day, what if I die?" Lothar calmly replied, "I am almost sixty years old, and in ten years, five years, three years, or even tomorrow, I will die by the passage of time......"

"But......" Wendthor thought for a moment, and then said firmly, "Then I will join you and not return to the south!" ”

In that moment, Lothar felt moved; With Windsor's exploits in the war, he would have been able to occupy a high position when he returned to Stormwind, but he was willing to give up everything to follow him......

"Idiot!" But in an instant, it turned into a merciless rebuke: "You should be loyal to your kingdom, not me!" ”

As she spoke, Lothar turned away, "Think about this, Reginald!" ”

The young paladin froze for a moment, and then said to himself:

"I see, Lord Lothar...... I will defend my kingdom with my life! ”

……

Walking through Lordaeron's palace, almost every few steps, a nobleman or military officer respectfully saluted the leader of the Alliance.

Lothar would always stop and talk to the other person before leaving......

Until you reach a hut, you can faintly hear a loud noise inside.

Lothar coughed softly at the door.

A head sticks out of the window of the room, and then is taken aback:

"Lord Lothar, why are you here!" Khadgar shouted in surprise.

Then the human mage, along with a rugged dwarf, hurried out of the hut and welcomed the brave warrior inside.

Lothar entered the hut and found that apart from the two, there was only a beautiful but slightly faceless female elf in red...... Maybe it's Carlin's female companion, he thought to himself, ignoring her......

"Any wine?" Lothar asked softly.

"Wine!" Kudran Brute Hammer was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly said: "Yes, didn't the palace guards bring each of us the best Lordan rice wine early, but the strength is too poor, and the drink is not strong at all!" ”

"Give me some ......"

"Okay!" The grinning dwarf went straight inside and carried out a barrel of wine that exuded a faint aroma of rice.

Khadgar frowned, he sensed that something wasn't quite right with Anduin-Lothar today.

The female elf in red blinked, looking at all this in front of her with great curiosity.

Watch as Lothar opens the barrel of rice wine, pours it into a bowl, and gulps it into his mouth; Khadgar couldn't help but ask, "Lord Lothar, what's going on?" ”

It stands to reason that it's normal to drink and celebrate at this moment, but Lothar doesn't seem to be celebrating.

"That's right...... Hiccup......" Lothar said with a slight stammer.

……

"What, you're not going back to Stormwind?" Kudran-Hammer subconsciously raised his voice.

Khadgar glared at him hurriedly, and winked at the same time; Apparently, Khadgar had already guessed something......

"What's going on?" Karlin's voice came from outside the door: "Khadgar, are you kid drinking again?" ”

Seeing Carlin appear at the door, Khadgar quickly shook his head and pointed to Lothar over there.

"Carlin, come have a drink!" Lothar raised her glass a little drunkenly.

Kudran had already reached Karin's ear and told her what he had just said.

"What?" Carlin was also taken aback at first...... But soon, he understood Lothar's intentions.

Meritorious Cover Lord!

In a sense, it even surpasses the merit.

Lothar's exploits in the Second War were too great for anyone to match.

He personally commanded almost every major battle, and led every soldier of the Alliance, even the last Grand Chief of the Horde, Orgrim, who was killed by his own hands.

Whether it's the knights of Stormwind, or the Silver Hands of Lordaeron, or the militia of Riptide, or the garrison of Alterac...... Almost all the forces of the Alliance, regardless of country or race, regard Anduin-Lothar as their leader!

After the death of Terenus-Minehir, he was also the true first man of the Alliance, the most noble human in the world.

So when mentioning Stormwind and Stormwind Kingdom, people only think of the name of Lothar, not its king "Varian-Wrynn"!

This will be even more evident once back to the south.

The officers and nobles of Stormwind, including Windsor, Gavinrad, Berval, and others, were all Lothar's most trusted subordinates; As long as Lothar is alive, who would dare to ignore his opinion once it comes to something important?

In a sense, his position will be even higher than that of the king......

This is true even if Lothar resigns from all positions; What's more, it is impossible for the king to let such a meritorious hero resign from all his positions......

However, Varian has grown up, as is clear from the battle of Lordaeron. He was now a proper king, not a former prince; He is qualified to rule his kingdom and rule over all that he has......

So, Lothar made a difficult decision.

Since once he returns to Stormwind, he will be Varian's biggest obstacle.

Then, he chose to leave Varian's side and leave Stormwind.

From afar, the young king, like his father, became a true leader......

……

Carlin couldn't help but be in awe of the drunken man in front of him.

Khadgar also stood there, looking at Lothar in silence.

Even Kudran seems to understand something.

I'm afraid that it will be difficult for anyone who stands in his position to make the same and noble choice as him.

"Carlin, actually, I came to you this time to ask...... You don't have a shortage of guards to guard the home! Lothar's drunken voice sounded again: "My old bones, I still have some strength, and I can do ......"
