Of the eight seats in the conference room, six people were already seated at this time.

There were also two kings who were not present, and they were two kings who were slightly stranger to Carlin.

Ayden Pirenod, King of the Kingdom of Alterac, and Solas Torbaine, ruler of the Kingdom of Stormgard (Riptide Castle).

As Carlin pondered, a tall, rude man walked in...... He wore a thick coat made of fur, apparently to cope with the bad weather in the Arathi Heights; The shoes were covered in dust and looked dusty.

When he saw the banner of the black shield in the center of the conference room, this rugged and iron-blooded man burst into tears......

"The people of Stormgard...... It's been a long, long time since I've seen the royal banner of the Empire! Solas, dressed in a red robe, couldn't stop crying.

……

More than 3,000 years ago, human beings lived in small tribes in settlements on this continent.

Forest trolls are their greatest threat, with countless humans dying at the hands of forest trolls every year...... In the midst of a long battle against the trolls of the forest, a human named Arathi came to the fore, united the human tribes, and proclaimed himself the Great of Arathor......

And in the area of the Arathi Highlands, located in the southeast of Lordaeron, Arathus the Great established the first state in human history, the Arathas Empire, with the capital at Rapidsberg.

After that, Emperor Arathus joined forces with the elves to drive the forest trolls back into the forest...... At the same time, you can communicate with dwarves, gnomes, and elves, and continue to expand outwards and build new cities!

Dalaran, Lordaeron, Gilneth ...... These famous cities of later generations were founded by the immigrants of Araso.

However, as the empire expanded, so did weakness; Over the course of a thousand years, many nobles gradually left the barren lands of the Arathi Heights to settle and even establish new human cities; The descendants of the royal family had no choice but to choose to go south, and after arriving at a fertile land called "Elwin", they established the "Kingdom of Azeroth" and named its capital "Stormwind City".

But before leaving the Araço Heights, the royal family left the entire Arathi Heights, as well as the Empire's old capital, Fort Riptide, to the Torbairn family, who had remained loyal to the royal family for thousands of years, which was the origin of the Stormgard Kingdom......

So Solas Tolbain has always claimed to be the ruler of the kingdom of Stormgard (Riptide Castle), not the king!

……

"The blood of the first emperor!" Solas Torbain said solemnly, "Fort Riptide will always be loyal to you, and at your command, the entire Stormgard will fight for you, for the Emperor of Alatho!" ”

As he spoke, the ruler of Riptide fell to his knees, a ritual used by princes to meet the emperor during the days of the Araso Empire.

"Descendants of Ignaus, please stand up!" Anduin Lothar hurriedly helped Solas Torbairn up: "The empire has sunk into the dust of history, and now I am only the regent of Stormwind, not your emperor......"

"I didn't take out the flag of this empire to recreate the glory of the empire...... Just to unite all of humanity once again and face our intractable enemy, the Horde! Lothar said sincerely.

"The members of the Tolbain family will always be such a dead brain, even though they have led Fort Riptide for over a thousand years!" Antonidas' voice rang out in Karin's head: "Perhaps influenced by the barren lands of the Arathi Heights, they are still basking in the glory of the empire a thousand years ago...... This loyalty may be commendable, but it has long since left this era! ”

Antonidas had something to say, and Carlin fell into a brief thought.

It is true that Thorbane is very loyal, but the behavior just now is also extremely reckless.

Fort Riptide is indeed loyal to the Arathor Empire, and also recognizes Lothar, the blood of Arathor, as the emperor of the Empire......

But what about other countries, you must know that the seven kingdoms of the human race are all divided by the Araso Empire!

Among you are the leaders of Lordaeron, Dalaran, Gilneth and Kurtilas...... If Lothar accepted the emperor's honor, what should the leaders of the other countries do?

Bow down to Lothar?

Or is it a traitor to the Empire?

Lothar was a warrior of good character, but he wasn't stupid either, at least his mind was much clearer than Torbane's.

So he didn't hesitate to refuse Torbain's salute, emphasizing that he was only the regent of Stormwind, equal to, or even inferior to, the others present.

On the contrary, if he had accepted it just now, I am afraid that the atmosphere here would not be good......

There is even a possibility of a fight.

In fact, it is not that Lothar does not have the idea of picking up the imperial flag and commanding the heroes...... But it was quickly replaced by reason.

Hearing Lothar's words, a smile appeared on Terenus's face.

He walked over and patted Thorbain on the shoulder, and said, "Solas, come and sit here, we have a big meeting today...... If you want to catch up with Anduin, you might as well wait until the meeting is over. ”

Solas Torbain also realized his gaffe and quickly nodded, and he sat down next to Archbishop Alonsos Fao.

Just as the king of Riptide Castle was seated......

"Guys, it looks like I'm a little late?" Just then, the last king entered the chamber and shouted in a loud voice.

……

He has grayish-brown hair and hazel eyes...... From a distance, you can feel that he is very cultured and seems to be very aristocratic......

"You're always the last one to arrive, Aiden!" Daylin Prodmore, the leader of Coultiras, said faintly across the round table.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" The last king to come said very modestly.

"Sit down here!" Terenus gestured to the last seat, facing the king, losing the enthusiasm he had had before.

Solas Thorbain squinted at the last king, snorted, and shifted his seat toward Bishop Fao.

His identity is not difficult to guess, after all, the method of elimination can be easily solved......

It looks like the relationship between Alterac and Riptide Castle is a bit bad! Carlin thought to himself.

"Aiden Perynod, King of the Kingdom of Alterac!" Antonidas's voice rang directly in Carlin's head:

"It's an idiot!"
