The early morning in the Balatin Bay is quiet and tranquil, and a thin sea mist envelops the fleet of ships moored here.

In one of the flagship's cabins, Varian, who had washed up after getting up, stared at the reflection in the mirror and subconsciously touched his face.

The eyebrows and facial features on this face are almost exactly the same as those of the former self, if there is any difference, it is that it is younger, more angular, and more European and American.

In the past few days, in order not to be discovered by others, Varian has been hiding in his room under the pretext of being unwell.

He used these days to go through all the dungeons in the ordinary dungeons that were suitable for his level, and the Paladin's class level had also been upgraded to level 8.

In addition, Varian used the money he earned from the quest to learn career skills as well as several business skills such as first aid, fishing, mining, and blacksmithing.

Learning skills in this system, as long as you have money, you can learn all the business skills, and Varian guesses that this should be the reason why he spent money to unlock all business skills in the nostalgia suit.

Varian didn't plan to rush all his business skills to the highest level, which would take a lot of time and raw material resources, and his main goal was to improve his own strength at the moment.

Moreover, during this time, Varian also took the opportunity to thoroughly digest and fuse the memories of his predecessor, and also had a general understanding of himself and the entire form of Azeroth.

Before that, the orcs had already breached Stormwind under the leadership of Orgrim Doomhammer, and the Marshal of Stormwind, Anduin Lothar (the middle-aged bald uncle in front of him), gathered the remnants of his forces and led the surviving nobles and commoners to escape Stormwind by boat, and went to the kingdom of Lordaeron in the north of the eastern continent to seek help.

Due to the lack of detailed charts and the lack of navigators familiar with deep-sea routes, the fleet did not dare to rush to the depths of the endless sea, so they could only sail along the coastline in shallow waters.

In addition, the ships in the fleet are all wooden sailing boats, and the main power is sails and human oars, so the speed of the fleet is not very fast.

However, after more than a month of sailing, they had already completed most of their journey, and the fleet arrived in the Baladine Bay last night, not far from the destination of the trip, Nanhai Town.

Just as Varian was looking in the mirror, there was a knock at the door, accompanied by a young woman's voice: "Your Royal Highness, have you finished washing?" Can I come in? ”

Varian came to his senses and replied at the door, "The door is unlocked, come in Millie." ”

With Varian's permission, the woman outside the door pushed open the door and walked inside.

The woman's name was Millie Osworth, and she was the daughter of the owner of the Osworth vineyard near Northshire Abbey.

When the orcs invaded before, Millie happened to be visiting friends in Stormwind with her father, so she was lucky enough to escape and leave with the fleeing fleet, and was also on the same boat as Varian, Lothar and others.

The Osworth family was not an aristocratic family, they only owned a small vineyard, and even the owner of the vineyard had to work on the estate together.

Young Millie was very diligent and good at household chores, and when Varian's maid disappeared in the midst of the war while fleeing, Lothar hired the hard-working and capable Millie as a maid to take care of Varian's food and daily life. (Note: There is a difference between the identity of a maid and a maid, one is the relationship between master and servant, and the other is the relationship between employment and employment)

Once inside, Millie folded the quilt neatly, tidied up the room, and brought Varian's breakfast, a piece of toasted slightly charred oatmeal bread, and a bowl of thick and mushy oatmeal.

Due to the haste of the escape, the entire fleet did not have time to carry more food, so Lothar ordered a food rationing system along the way, and even the meal of the prince Varian was very rudimentary.

And not only was there a lack of food on board, but every ship in the fleet was full of people in order to be able to take more refugees with them.

Now in the entire fleet, Varian is the only one cabin that can have a single cabin, and each of the other cabins is crowded with several people, even the nobles.

Varian (before being crossed) had offered Lothar to have some people in his cabin, but everyone rejected his offer, believing that it was a matter of the last face of the Stormwind Kingdom, so they resolutely refused to agree.

Fortunately, Varian was able to have his own independent private space to adapt to the world.

At this time, Varian, who was sitting at the dining table, looked at the bread and oatmeal on the table, and frowned imperceptibly.

For Varian, who had become accustomed to rice noodles in his previous life, although these coarse oat foods were much better than the black bread mixed with sawdust that civilians ate, he was still a little difficult to swallow.

Fortunately, in these days, Varian has not lost a lot of copies, and has made a lot of ingredients from monsters such as the Stonetooth Boar and the Leper Wolf.

He used his cooking skills to make roasted wild boar and barbecued wolf meat, and also increased the level of his cooking skills by the way.

The food tasted much better than the bread, but Varian couldn't tell the others where it came from, so he couldn't share it with them.

Varian, who could start his own small stove, just drank the oatmeal, and let Millie take the bread and distribute it to the old men and children on the boat.

Millie was worried that Varian would not be hungry, but there was nothing she could do to stop Her Royal Highness's insistence.

After Varian finished his meal, the priest named Nils showed up in Varian's room just in time.

The Nils priest spent some time in Stratholme Cathedral in the north and joined the Brotherhood of Light, founded by Archbishop Alonsos Fao.

He is a devout believer in the Light, and is one of the priests in the North County Abbey who knows the Way of Light best.

Nils had come here to teach him the mysteries of the Way of Light at Varian's invitation.

Although Varian has become the first paladin in Azeroth due to the system, he needs a reasonable explanation to explain this to Lothar and the others around him.

In the original timeline, the Paladin class was founded shortly after by the Archbishop of the Holy Brotherhood, Alonthos Fao.

Because in the war against the orcs, the warriors lacked healers and the priests did not have the ability to defend, so the archbishop decided to create a new class that combined the abilities of warriors and priests, and could use the power of the light to support their comrades on the battlefield like the priests, and also use melee weapons like warriors to exert their powerful combat power.

Varian had learned how paladins were founded in his previous life, so what he had been discussing with Priest Nils these days was how to combine the abilities of a warrior and a priest.
