Chapter 54: The Council of Six
Violet Castle at night, brightly lit, seems to indicate that something important is about to happen. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Archmage Antonidas sat alone in the center of the round table, behind him stood a young girl in a purple robe.
"Bad news, Speaker Antonidas!" Modra walked briskly into the castle: "I tried every means to contact Kel'thugad, but I didn't get any reply! ”
Antonidas didn't speak, just nodded slightly, motioning for Modra to sit beside him.
"I've got some news!" Crassus followed him into the castle: "In the past year, the time period when Kelthugad left Dalaran is basically the same as the time period when the plague event occurred in Lordaeron......"
Antonidas still just nodded, not speaking.
Eventually, Durandon and Kael'thas entered Violet Castle together, with Kael'thas carrying a slender bag.
Durandon spoke first, "Just as Gavin Rad predicted!" In Kel'thugad's room, we found many experimental remnants of psychic spells! ”
"Kel'thugad has been working on psychic magic...... Since after World War II, he used to tell me! Archmage Antonidas said slowly, this was the first time he had spoken today.
"But there's this!" Kael'thas pointed to the slender bag in his hand and said, "This is what I found under Kel'thugad's bed!" ”
As he spoke, Kael'thas carefully opened the bag, and the foul smell immediately spread throughout the castle.
Looking at the contents of the bag, the scene was silent. Because the bag contains a pile of scattered white bones!
"This is most likely the Garroway wreck!" Kael'thas said slowly: "He disappeared three months ago, and we always thought that he went to an unknown place to conduct experiments alone, but we didn't expect that now he is dead!" ”
Looking at the mutilated white bones, Durandon sighed softly, and Crassus couldn't help but shake his head with a sad look on Modra's face.
Sitting here were the five members of the Council of Six, the true leaders of Kenrito and the most powerful group of mages in all of Dalaran.
But now they are not in very good shape, Kael'thas usually neat hair, today is a little messy; Durandon was still wearing half-dressed pajamas, as if they had been woken up in bed.
Of course, this is true, because Kenrito may well have suffered the worst betrayal in thousands of years.
"Maybe it's time for us to vote, Speaker Antonidas!" Kael'thas Sunstrider looked up, "Judging from the available evidence, Kel'thugad has completely betrayed Kenrito, and we have made the right choice to arrest him!" ”
"I don't think this has to be that big, Kael'thas!" Mordra said softly to Kael'thas that "In fact, if this kind of scandal spreads, it will be quite detrimental to our image, and we can choose a little bit of a calming attitude!" ”
"I agree with Kael'thas about it." Crassus's answer was simple!
Durandon frowned: "Have you ever thought that Kel'thugad may have been tempted or deceived by something, I don't think we should be so casually wanted by our companions, but we should first find out the truth of the matter." ”
After a brief argument, Kael'thas almost got into a fight with Dryon and Mordra.
……
"Two votes for, two votes against!" Crassus interrupted their argument: "So it should be Speaker Antonidas who makes the final decision." ”
Everyone's eyes turned to the gray-haired old man in the center of the round table.
As the Speaker of the six-member Parliament, Antonidas has two votes when voting, and in this two-to-two balance of votes, he can decide the outcome.
However, it is also clear to everyone that Kel'thugad is the oldest student of Antonidas, and probably the best......
"Is it my turn?" Archmage Antonidas's voice was as if he was ten years older: "Kel'thugad's betrayal of Kenrito has been well documented, and it has indeed caused considerable harm......
Durandon sighed softly, and Kael'thas had a triumphant smile on his face.
"I announce that Kenrito will be wanted throughout Azeroth, and Kel'thugad must die!" The old mage's voice was remembered in the halls of the castle.
"Retire, Speaker Antonidas!" Crassus bowed deeply.
Kael'thas was about to say something, but was pulled from behind by Derlandon and pulled out.
"Gianna, you stay," Antonidas said suddenly.
"Teacher?" Gianna Proudmore said with some surprise.
The other four mages had already left Violet Castle.
"Come with me!"
……
The young girl helped the old mage out of Violet Castle and walked to the hot springs of Dalaran.
"It was here more than twenty years ago that I met Kersugad for the first time!" Antonidas said slowly, as if caught in a memory.
"I was young at the time, and I had been studying the mysteries of magic, and Modra said that my life was too boring, so she introduced two students to me!"
"One is Kelsegad, the other is Daisy?" A smile appeared on Antonidas' lips: "They were all teenagers at the time, very talented, and they all worked hard...... I've seen them grow and teach them magic little by little, and honestly, it's fun! ”
"So, what about that Daisy-senpai?" Gianna asked softly, it was the first time she had heard the name after so long in Dalaran.
She married Kel'thugad and became his wife, a good marriage recognized by the whole of Dalaran...... Unfortunately, not long after the wedding, the orcs invaded, and the alliance entered full preparations, and both Kel'thugad and Daisy participated in this war on behalf of Dalaran......"
"And then......" Gianna's voice trembled a little.
"Daisy died, died in the war, and Kel'thugad survived alone, and by virtue of his exploits in the war, he became a member of the Council of Six! But what's the point? ”
"Since then, Kel'thugad has become extremely reticent and has begun to study psychic magic secretly!" A wry smile tugged at the corner of Antonidas' mouth.
