Chapter 12: The Gloating Onexia

In Stormwind, in an office in Stormwind Fortress, Countess Catlana Presto was sitting opposite the Grand Duke of Boval, and the two had a very pleasant conversation.

Katrana is a stunningly beautiful black-haired woman, with her white and tender skin that can be blown and broken, delicate red lips, a pair of big purple eyes that are seductive, and a devilish hot body.

It is precisely because of such a calamity-level appearance, elegant temperament and noble status that Katrana can become the recognized number one beauty in the upper class society of the Stormwind Kingdom, and is welcomed and sought after by countless men, even the Grand Duke Berval opposite Catlana is very attracted to her.

In fact, when he reached the level of Berval, he had seen too many beauties, and it was difficult to impress him with his simple appearance or temperament, but Catlana was different, not only was her appearance, temperament and identity top-notch, but she was not a vase, she had a lot of influence in the noble council, and she had unique views on many state affairs, which was what really attracted Bertall.

Remembering the other party's proposal just now, Boval nodded to Katrana: "Katrana, I think what you said is very reasonable, the Burning Plains are worthless to us, we should abandon it and use our forces to support our northern allies, and I will mention your suggestion to Your Majesty later." ”

"Thank you for the recognition, Bolval," Katrana chuckled, visibly amused, and after a moment she spoke again, "Speaking of Varian, he's back in a week?" ”

"Yes, if nothing happens, Varian will be back early next Monday morning, and we'll have to meet him at the gates with the people."

"I'm looking forward to that day sooner rather than later, when we'll be able to meet Varian and the heroes of the kingdom." Katrana's eyes flickered faintly, and her tone changed: "By the way, Berval, I heard a rumor that Varian is in love with a noblewoman from Lordaeron?" ”

"Well, it's true, I checked with Grayson yesterday that Varian likes Baron Thurberchel, she only came from Lordaeron half a year ago, and she went to Camlido not long after, so you may not know him."

"I'm starting to wonder a little about that girl, is she pretty?" Katrana asked with interest.

"Pretty?" Boval laughed, "If you think so, you will probably be disappointed when you see her, Katrana, she is much worse than you in these aspects, but this girl is indeed quite good, not only is she superb, she has a noble character, she has also made a lot of contributions on this expedition, and even saved Varian, and it is reasonable that Varian likes her." ”

"Sounds like a nice girl, and I'll definitely invite her to my house when she returns."

"Well, when the time comes, you can also introduce some other noble ladies to her, so that she can integrate into the aristocratic society."

……

Soon after, after Katrana had spoken to Bolval for a while, she said goodbye to Bolval, who reluctantly sent her to the door of Stormstorm Fortress himself.

This human image and identity is so easy to use.

Looking at Bolval's somewhat fascinated gaze, Katrana thought triumphantly.

That's right, Katrana's human name and identity are just a disguise for her, and her true identity is a black dragon, the black dragon princess Onexia, the daughter of the fallen guardian dragon Netsario.

Onexia is not idle and bored to run to the human kingdom to be a countess, she prefers to stay in her lair like a real dragon, collect treasures, sleep, and hatch eggs, the reason why she is willing to come to human society to play some boring games with humans is because she received a request from her brother --- Nefarian, the current leader of the Black Dragon Legion.

Since the battle of Grimbaatar ten years ago, the powerful Nesario was seriously injured and defeated, and since then he has disappeared from the eyes of the world, even the Black Dragon Legion can not sense the breath of their king, and fell into a panic for a while, in this case, the Black Dragon Queen Nessistra ordered to gather the Black Dragons, and established Nefarion's status as the new Dragon King in public, and the new Dragon King Nefarian decided to occupy the Black Stone Tower of the Burning Plains to implement the colorful dragon plan, and sent Onexia to the Stormwind Kingdom to make trouble.

The reason for the trouble is very simple, although the black dragon is powerful, it has become a public enemy in the mortal world, and the number is too small to really fight against a country's army, so Nefarian does not want the high-level of the Stormwind Kingdom to notice the abnormality of the Black Stone Tower, and sends troops to interfere with his colorful dragon plan.

Since taking over the mission ten years ago, Onexia has been mixed in with the nobility of the Stormwind Kingdom as Countess Presto, with her noble status, enough wisdom and charm to conquer the city, Onexia has quickly become a prominent figure in the noble council, and has enough influence on a large number of ministers, including the Grand Duke of Berval.

Unfortunately, the first few years of her mission did not go smoothly due to King Varian.

Onexia originally hoped that this young king could indulge in banquets, hunting, and balls like many young nobles, but who knew that Varian, who had the experience of ruining his family and the country in his early years, was very insecure, not only was he not interested in pleasure, but he also wanted to spend every penny on force, and the palace was directly built into a military fortress by Varian, and the walls were filled with all kinds of killing weapons, and even the waiters and maids were replaced by him with soldiers, and the elite standing legions were established one after another.

Onexia then plans to use her charm to confuse Varian, but she soon discovers that although Varian admires her, he only stops at appreciating it, refuses to betray his wife and surpasses the thunder pool, and has his own opinions when it comes to things, and once a decision is made, it is difficult to persuade even the ministers who are close to him, let alone the outsider of Onexia.

This even makes the significance of Onexia's control of the noble council a lot smaller, you must know that whether it is a minister or other nobles, most of them know very well which is more important, and they will not easily disobey the king's will for her, not to mention Varval's die-hard loyalty, even Duke Visak, who has a lot of complaints about Varian in private and is fascinated by Onexia, is only willing to do Onexia a little favor, and once it is possible to confront the king and damage the interests of his family, he will not do it.

Just when Onexia was a little discouraged, she found an opportunity, President Van Cleve of the Stonemason Guild came to her privately, hoping to get a higher salary for the workers, Onexia successfully confused the ignorant stonemason with his rhetoric, making him think that he could open his mouth and offer a sky-high salary to the noble council, and the noble council, which was already a little heartbroken, was completely enraged by the arrogance and ignorance of this stonemason, so that the conflict quickly escalated and intensified, In the end, it caused an uncontrollable evil situation such as the death of the queen of the stonemason riot.

Since then, the western part of the kingdom has been in turmoil, and the anxious Varian can no longer care about the suspicious situation on the burning plains, but Onexia has not stopped her plan, the ogre tribe of the Dawn Forest, the Elwyn Forest and the Jackal of the Red Ridge Mountain, one after another, appeared around the kingdom, attracting the kingdom's troops, and since the beginning of this year, the undead natural disaster has erupted, which has made Onexia gloat: Varian has calmed down the chaos in the country, It is also unlikely that for several years to focus on the worthless land of the Burning Plains.

"Although Hyjalsan Varian is lucky not to die this time, but there is a lot of loss of financial resources and troops, and there is the threat of riots in the western wilderness and the natural disaster legion, he is estimated that he will not be able to solve the mess at home and abroad in a few years, and I will go back to the lair to live for a while in a few days, I always feel that those clumsy dragonmen can't take care of my little darlings."

Onexia thought to herself, but she was also very worried about the safety of her lair, especially after hearing that a human archmage had built a new city near her lair, although Onexia had cast a powerful spell on her lair, but she didn't think that it would stop the archmage from cracking it, and it would be dangerous to expose her dragon eggs and treasures once the lair was exposed.

"We'll have to find a way to get things done between that human city and the tribe."

Onexia made a decision, which seemed to her to be not difficult in terms of human and tribal hatred, as for the fragile peace agreement? Onexia knows the inside story, and most people are persuaded by Varian's theory of the threat of the dead.

But in private, no one in the human race, from nobles to commoners, really believes that the orcs will abide by the peace agreement, and the orcs have always liked to use axes instead of words to reason, and it is estimated that the two sides who distrust each other will be able to fight again, and then not only will the crisis in her lair be resolved, but the Stormwind Kingdom will not care about the little suspicion of the Burning Plains.

"Here in the Storm Kingdom, the Western Wilderness may not always be chaotic, for the sake of insurance, you have to do something before leaving, in addition to the trolls in the Valley of Thorns, that girl's identity is also a place to be used."

Onexia smiled proudly when she thought of the Lordaeron girl that Bolvar had just mentioned, she knew too well about the group of Stormwind nobles, since the outbreak of the natural disaster, a large number of northern exiles have gone south, including civilians, but there are also a large number of exiled nobles, and the attitude of Stormwind nobles towards this kind of person is completely different.

In order to survive, bankrupt commoners would sell their labor at a very low price to create more wealth for the local nobles, so the local nobles were extremely welcoming to the northern commoners. But the exiled nobles are different, they went to Stormwind City to grab the cake of the local nobles, and the local nobles are very disgusted with the exiled nobles, and they can't wait to let those northerners get out.

In this case, if Varian wants to marry a northern aristocrat in exile as the queen, the resistance can be imagined, you must know that although this matter is the king's private matter, the significance is extraordinary, which symbolizes that the northern nobles are completely accepted by Varian, and since then there is a group of northern nobles who share power in the political arena of the Stormwind Kingdom, which makes the local nobles how willing to agree?

Even if the local nobles finally had to agree to a Lordaeron to be queen under the king's pressure, the struggle between the nobles on both sides would definitely be more intense, and there would be room for Onexia to continue to interfere and make a big deal out of it.

"Varian, you brought this on yourself, who made you like a noblewoman of Lordaeron?" Onexia gloated again.
