Egwene didn't take the fate he saw too seriously.

For a human, she's lived long enough, and it's a miracle that she's survived until now.

Life extension magic is not as precise and reliable as outsiders think, the longer the life is extended, the greater the risk, Egwene has used magic to extend her life for thousands of years, which is unprecedented, the magic on her body may fail at any time, returning her to her natural age state, and at that time, Egwene will die in an instant.

Egwene did not resist death, not only did she live long enough, but her deeds were legendary, and after so many things, she had already seen many things, even death seemed to her to be just the end of a journey.

"But until then, a lot of things have to be arranged."

Egwene had a plan in mind, and after trimming the pot of Eroel, she went over to Claudia, sat down, and asked about it.

"Why hasn't Gianna come here for so many days? Isn't her injury healing? ”

"No, Gianna's injury is long gone, she's just busy dealing with His Majesty Dalin."

Speaking of this, a smile hung on the corner of Claudia's mouth, as far as she knew, as soon as Gianna teleported back, she was caught by Dalin, who was already waiting in Seramo, so she didn't go out during this time.

Daillin didn't bother Gianna about the trade treaty with the tribe, although it made Dalin very angry for a while, but when he learned that his daughter's life was in danger, Dalin immediately forgot Gianna's "ignorant" behavior, and after seeing Gianna, he just asked for warmth, and didn't mention the tribe's affairs at all.

But even so, Gianna didn't dare to relax at all, she was busy being a good girl by Dai Lin's side for the past two days, and she didn't dare to sneak to Stormwind City to play, Theramore was too close to the tribe, Gianna was afraid that as soon as she left, Dai Lin would have a conflict with the tribe or even fight.

After listening to Claudia's explanation, Egwen frowned and said, "Just let Gianna come to live in Stormwind for a while, I need her." ”

Claudia looked away from the papers in her hand and looked at Egwene in surprise, and she noticed something different from Egwene's face, which belonged to Magna's stubbornness, persistence, and pride.

"What's the matter?" Claudia asked.

"I need to teach Gianna something that belongs to Magna, and I need you and her to go to Karazhan to fetch something for me, and recharge Elunis by the way."

"I see."

Claudia nodded, pulled a string on the side of the table, and a short time later, a beautiful little brunette girl pushed open the door, her face filled with excitement and smiles that could not be hidden.

"Your Majesty, are you looking for me?"

"Well, Amber, go get the communication ring, the one that matches Theramore."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Amber gave a playful salute and turned to leave, although she was Claudia's new personal agent, Claudia had never used her as an agent at all, and she was usually more like Claudia's personal attendant or herald.

And Anbo didn't look like an agent at all, aside from her combat effectiveness, her personality was sunny and lively, and she was full of vitality every day, which may also have something to do with her experience.

Anbo had not been fully discharged from school when Claudia had come directly to serve her, she had not carried out any MI7 missions, nor had she walked in the dark, so she was like a blank slate, and now she was not so much an agent as a little girl who had learned the art of thieves.

Seeing Anbo so lively, Claudia couldn't help but be infected, and a smile appeared on her face, but Claudia's good mood didn't last long, and soon after Adjutant Arthur sent a military intelligence report from the north, Claudia couldn't help but be a little stunned after reading the report.

"How?" Egwen, who was on the side, noticed the change in Claudia's expression, "Bad news from the north?" ”

"On the contrary, the war in the north is over, and we have won."

Claudia denied it, and she handed the report to Egwen, her eyes looking out the window, a little upset in her heart.

The Lordaeron Restoration War in the north lasted for three years, and while recovering the Eastern and Western Plague Lands and annihilating the Scourge Legion, the Alliance also paid a huge price, taking the Storm Kingdom as an example, in addition to consuming a large amount of ordnance and treasury funds, there were more than 3,000 regular army soldiers and a large number of professionals lying on the land of the Eastern Plague Land forever.

However, this is only one of the reasons for Claudia's depression, in fact, the Lordaeron Restoration War is a war that lasted for three years, and the huge casualties have gradually accumulated in the long war, Claudia, who has been dealing with state affairs for nearly half a year, has been prepared for the casualties of the war, and what really makes her a little stunned is another thing mentioned in the intelligence.

"Is it because your child is leaving you?" Egwene said suddenly.

"How do you tell?" Claudia, who had been shattered, gave Egwen a stunned look.

"Don't be so surprised, son, I'm a mother too," Egwene smiled self-deprecatingly, "It's a failure, but I can relate to your feelings. ”

"Yes, it's true that my little Geralt is leaving me," Claudia sighed and said abruptly, "Although the fate of this child has been decided long before it was born, I still feel a little difficult to let go when I learn that this moment has come. ”

"Go with your children," Egwene added, with a sympathetic look on his face, "go now, and don't do any more business for the next few days." ”

Claudia hesitated, "However, I can't abolish my ...... for personal reasons. ”

"State affairs can let someone else handle it for you temporarily, but you can't let someone else replace the role of the child's mother, besides, after that day, the child will have no mother."

The last sentence had an obvious effect on Claudia, who no longer insisted, and her face could not help but be a little gloomy:

"You're right, Egwen."

Claudia followed Egwen's advice, and for the next half a month, she completely put down her official duties and chose to be an ordinary mother again, staying with her children almost day and night, of course, she couldn't let go of her youngest son Geralt.

Time passed day by day, and the day of the return of the expeditionary force was getting closer and closer, but Claudia's reluctance continued unabated, in addition to reluctance, there was even more guilt.

There's no reason why Claudia shouldn't feel guilty.

The fate of the child had been decided at birth, and now he was barely two years old before he had to leave his mother, and she, as the mother of the child, had not taken the child with him for a few months--- when the child was only eight months old, Varian disappeared, and she had to go from inside the palace to the outside of the palace to take charge of the country, and since then, she has not been able to care for her own child again.

With this guilt, two days before the expeditionary force was about to return, Claudia carried little Geralt to the forge hall and asked Azadas to bless the child.

"Friggya, why am I bless this child?" Azadas's tone was calm but sharp, "You don't want to say it's just because he's your heir, do you?" ”

Claudia was speechless.

No matter what feelings she had for the child, it didn't have much to do with Azadas, and in fact the Titan Creation didn't have such a connection as an heir, let alone let Azadas spend his divine power to bless the child.

"Only once, I plead with you." Claudia whispered.

Azadas's face finally rippled.

Some were angry, some were surprised, and some were confused.

"Friggya, why did you give up your pride to get to this point? We are all guardians, we have countless years of getting along, and this child, even if it is your child, is mortal after all, even if you pay for him, he will still die in a few years. ”

"I know," Claudia nodded, "but I owe this kid, and I want to do something for him, and I don't ask for results, just do it." ”

Azadas fell silent, and after a long time he spoke again: "Friga, then why don't you bless him yourself?" Your blessing is more suitable for mortals who are not good at fighting magic, right? ”

"On the one hand, the last battle cost too much, and I didn't have enough silver fire, and on the other hand," Claudia's face softened, and she looked deeply at little Geralt who was sleeping in her arms, "Actually, I also want this child to be stronger, so that he can adapt to the harsh life on Lordaeron's side." ”

"You're too much of a mortal, Friggia," Azadas lamented, "If it was tens of thousands of years ago, I wouldn't have hesitated to reject you, but now, I really don't know if this kind of character of yours is good or bad for our duty, so I choose to help you once." ”

Claudia thanked her gratefully, and then a rich yellow light flashed on Azadas's hand, blessing Claudia's child, who would henceforth have a strong physique comparable to that of an earth spirit, using the abilities of a petrified saint and an inexhaustible physical strength when on the ground.

After the blessing, Claudia thanked and was about to leave, when Azadas said something else.

"Friggia, I've found an idea to fix the broken Eye of Sargeras you sent last time."

"How to fix it?" Claudia couldn't help but be a little surprised.

"It's not that simple, Friggya, having an idea doesn't mean that you can repair it, and I don't have enough materials to repair this Pillar of Creation."

"Materials? What material? Claudia asked.

"If I have a demigod core, I can give it a try." Azadas's words remained tepid.

Demigod core?

Claudia's surprise disappeared suddenly, how could the demigod core be so easy to do.

You must know that there are few demigods, and their combat power is extremely terrifying, if they really face a desperate situation, demigods can still blow themselves up, but it is difficult to leave the core.

What's more, Claudia wouldn't go out of her way to find a demigod to kill in order to get the core, which would violate her code of conduct.

Finally, Claudia said, "I see, Azadas, I'll bring it if I have a chance to get the demigod core." ”
