Chapter 151: Cunning Villain
Egwen's hand never left the staff from beginning to end, and only a demigod mage could understand the horror of Netsario, as long as the black dragon thought about it, it wouldn't take long for Lordaeron to turn into a sea of fire.
Compared to her, Ainan seems very casual, as if he is not facing Deathwing with the goal of destroying the world, but a stranger who is not threatening. His attitude puzzled Egwen, could it be that Ainan was not really worried that Deathwing would do something to him?
You must know that he used the plane portal to trap the black dragon, and let them fight with the ogre demigod Goron clan of Draenor, and the black dragon lost a lot of people in which battle. Now that he sees the bitter lord coming to the door, Ainan doesn't have a little weakness?
In this regard, Ainan's explanation is: "Don't do anything bad for people, and don't be surprised when you knock on the door in the middle of the night." I don't have a place to be sorry for Nesario, why should I be weak-hearted. If you have a weak heart, even if there is no problem, it will become a problem. So, take it easy, Egwen. โ
It was because of the pit of the black dragon that Egwen would subconsciously enter the battle state when he saw Nesario. It should be clear from Deathwing's experience that Ainan shifted the topic to his identity in time, which made Deathwing mistakenly think that both Ainan and Egwene had seen through his identity, and Egwen's overreaction became understandable. If that's not the case, Ainan and their troubles will be big.
Egwene is also a smart person, she just reacted very naturally, and now that she looks back, she realizes that her actions almost caused trouble for the two of them.
She wasn't worried about fighting Deathwing, and with her and Ainan joining forces, Deathwing wouldn't be able to leave two demigod mages behind, no matter how strong they were. Even if they can't beat it, they can leave calmly. She feared that if the two sides started fighting, Lordaeron and the northern kingdoms would suffer.
In particular, Lordaeron, as the center of the battlefield, must be in ruins, and this country is extremely prosperous and populous, it has become ruins, how many people will die on it?
Therefore, it is wisest to burn the flames of war in other people's homes instead of fighting in your own homes.
But then again, Ainan's skin is really not ordinary. He said that he didn't have a place to be sorry for Nesario, he could say this kind of thing, and he didn't know who used the plane portal to pit the black dragon.
As if hearing Egwen's heart, Ainan explained, "That thing is a counterattack, and it doesn't count who owes whom." Whoever dares to touch me must have the consciousness of revenge. โ
The problem is that people don't know that Tas is your subordinate, okay?
Egwene decided not to argue with this guy, he had a reason for what he said anyway. She stared at Nesario's back, slowly let go of the staff on her waist, and asked Ainan, "The black dragon has his eyes on the Terrans and wants us to be his subordinates, why would you answer like that." โ
The conversation between Ainan and Nesario just now was heard word for word, and this was what she was puzzled about. Supposedly, based on her knowledge of Ainan, the latter would not watch as Nesario turned the Terrans into the Black Dragon's thugs and get involved in the battle between the Black Dragons and the other four-color guardian dragons.
But it just happened.
Ainan made it clear that as long as Nesario didn't touch his Karazan interests, he wouldn't care about the lives of the Terrans elsewhere.
Such a selfish and narrow-minded approach, Egwene could not believe that Ainan would do that.
However, these words did come from Ainan's mouth.
"I answered what's wrong, I don't think there's a problem. Nesario doesn't provoke me, so why should I fight him? Everything has to be said to come first and come first, even if we really have to fight hard, we have to be on the four-colored dragon to take our turn. โ
This was said by Ainan as a matter of course, as if it was a matter of course that he didn't care about the life or death of the human race in other regions other than Karazhan. If he hadn't blinked meaningfully at the end, Egwene wouldn't have understood.
Cunning badass.
Egwen's evaluation of Ainan is the above five words.
Admittedly, Ainan had told Nesario that he would not meddle as long as he didn't mess with his Karazan. But Ainan didn't promise Nesario not to tell anyone about it, of course, this other person didn't specifically refer to humans, and the guardian dragon could also be dropped.
Egwene had already expected that Nessario's plan was halfway through, and it was a critical period when the red dragon, green dragon, blue dragon, and bronze dragon all came to kill, making his plan fall short, and all the time spent on the human race was in vain, and the black dragon king's nose was crooked.
"Deathwing lets him play if he loves to play, just so he can focus on it, as long as he can't succeed. Besides, if the north is as calm as a pool of stagnant water, it is better for someone to stir it up. โ
Therefore, Egwen will say that Ainan is cunning, and he clearly has the intention of destroying but does not show it, and deliberately wastes Nesario's time and energy, which not only plays the Black Dragon King but also buys time for his plan, which can be described as killing multiple birds with one stone.
Knowing Ainan's thoughts, Egwen really relaxed. The mockery on her face flashed as she looked at Nesario, who had been noticed by the other nobles for successfully talking to Ainan, and had used it to talk to many human nobles.
The dragon is so strong that he is used to acting straightforwardly and brutely, and even a character like Nesario can't compare to some people's intrigues and tricks.
"Failure is the mother of success, and this failure should be regarded as paying tuition."
As soon as I heard it, I knew who said this, and it wasn't him who paid the tuition anyway.
There was such an episode, and Egwen, who didn't like the atmosphere here, didn't want to stay in Lordaeron, and she gestured to Ainan - it was time to leave.
The latter shook his head slightly, what he wanted to see hadn't appeared yet, and of course Ainan wouldn't leave there.
In the middle of the feast, Terenus appeared with Arthas, and the arrival of the host attracted everyone's attention. Under the gaze of the crowd, Terenus lifted his infant son high and glanced at the court mage beside him.
Seeing this, Ainan smiled and said, "Here, this is what I want to see." โ
Egwen on the side was confused, and the female mage couldn't guess what dumb riddle Ainan was playing, so she could only watch it patiently.
The court mage's magic fluctuations could not hide Egwen's perception, and the female mage clearly sensed that this person had cast a amplified spell blessing on Terenus.
The young prince's loving father's bosom received the cheers of his subjects, and the king's voice rang in the ears of the people of Lordaeron at the same time.
"My son, the day you were born, the entire forest of Lordaeron whispered the same nameโArthas!"
