The same night of nightmares in Alsace.

In the moonlight, a team of thousands of orcs made a nervous advance through the dense forest.

Their footsteps were silent, and with their strong bodies they were able to dodge the entanglement of vines with great agility - strangely swift.

It seems that this is not the first time that this group of orcs has walked in the night and in the forest, they are used to this behavior.

"Hey, do you see anything?"

Farther away, at the top of a giant tree that could only be held by three people, Gianna asked Kael'thas with an expectant wink.

"Well, there's an orc force of thousands over there."

Kael'thas narrowed his eyes slightly in reply—even the elven eyes were a little tired from the long and serious gaze into the distance.

The distance between the two of them and the orc was a full 6 or 700 meters, and with the darkness of the night, Kael'thas could only guess the approximate number.

"So what are we waiting for, let's go now?"

Gianna proposes to Kael'thas .

Her complexion was a little red with joy, and her shoulder-length yellow hair looked very soft against the dark foliage.

However, Kael'thas did not approve of her proposal.

"There are some powerful guys among the orcs, we can't get too close."

He said this, then pointed to the ground:

"We've made sure they're here, so we'll follow from afar."

As long as he found out, Kael'thas would never have lost such an obvious target.

It's a steady approach.

Gianna thought with a chin of thought.

"You're right."

She reached out and grasped her staff out of thin air:

"Then let's use the slow fall technique!"

The mage has a skill called 'Slow Fall', which is an instantaneous spell that allows mages to avoid falling to their deaths from a height.

Kael'thas stops Gianna.

"You can't use this right now."

He pointed to the orc team that Gianna couldn't see, and explained:

"Perform the Slow Fall spell to get out of the shelter of this tree, and if we are exposed, we will be discovered by the orcs."

Every team that marched had some spies outside, and Kael'thas didn't want to be spotted by those spies.

"So how do we get down?"

Gianna's face deteriorated, and she looked down at the ground dozens of meters below:

"My teleportation technique is not available right now."

Gianna's teleportation technique is not far enough to fall directly to the ground.

It wasn't dark enough to get up to the giant tree, so Gianna was able to teleport up bit by bit by relying on the exact location of the huge trunk above.

But now that the leaves had blocked the moonlight, and the trunks were hidden in the darkness, she was not sure that she would continue to do so.

"I'll take you down."

Kael'thas didn't intend to embarrass Gianna from the start.

As he spoke, one hand lifted Gianna's clothes and jumped straight down.

"Ahh

Gianna screamed in fright at this sudden action, and she grabbed the corner of Kael'thas with both hands in her hands, closing her eyes and not daring to think about anything.

Kael'thas leapt swiftly from tree trunk to tree and landed lightly on the ground.

"Click"

After the sound of stomping on the leaves, Gianna felt like she was being placed on the ground.

"Arrived?"

She looked at the scenery around her in a cold sweat and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Will you be more polite to the lady next time?"

After recovering her senses, Gianna yelled at Kael'thas angrily.

"Absolutely."

Kael'thas chuckled at the corner of his mouth:

"As long as you talk to me in a different way."

He did it on purpose—

Gianna swore she had seen the banter in Kael'thas eyes, which lit a fire in her heart.

But the elven prince left her no chance.

"Gone."

He turned and walked away, his blonde hair swaying slightly, leaving a faint scent in the air.

[Like a woman.] 】

Gianna muttered to herself, and immediately followed.

On the way, she looked at Kael'thas with vicious eyes, and her words were tingling.

However, all these actions were like a stone sinking into the sea, and there was not the slightest response.

"Are you wood?"

Gianna finally couldn't take it anymore and gave up on the action.

"Wood isn't bad, is it?"

This time, however, she received an unexpected response.

Kael'thas walked beside her, tilting his head and smiling gracefully:

"At least better than you."

In the moonlight, the blonde elf's eyes were soft as water.

For the first time, Gianna discovers that he is a prince, a prince who only exists in the dreams of young girls.

[Is he for me]

Gianna suddenly remembered that it was the first time she had walked at night in the forest.

It was supposed to be frightening and nervous, but she never noticed it.

A little mischief by Kael'thas makes her forget about the darkness around her

Gianna stared into Kael'thas in the eye.

She understood Kalia's thoughts for a moment.

If she had been able to meet such a person who had banished the darkness when she was young, she would have fallen in love with him.

[This guy might be a good guy.] 】

The anger in Gianna's heart slowly disappeared.

But she felt that Kael'thas and her were not on the same path

One more advantage, which is not normal.

If Kael'thas had known what she was thinking, he would have rolled on the ground right away—proving that his shortcomings were obvious.

If it is fundamentally speaking, Kael'thas can only be regarded as a pretending strong man now, and he can be broken at any time.

The night is getting darker.

For the next few days, the two men followed the orcs to observe.

Because he didn't dare to go too far, Kael'thas had not been sure who the leader of the team was, but his suspicion a few days ago was confirmed.

This orc army, though large, could not have been a large army of orcs - the entire orc race was scattered to save their fellow citizens.

This method is more efficient and less dangerous.

But is the curse of orc blood really solved?

They will need to continue to observe for some time.

However, during this time, the orcs never went out of the forest to attack humans, much to the relief of both Kael'thas and others.

Gianna even completely changed her impression of orcs.

"My father said they were monsters who could only kill, but I didn't believe it."

She swore and said:

"I have a feeling that the orcs must have a lot of good people too."

In order to verify her words, the mage girl became even more active than Kael'thas in continuing to observe the orcs.

They followed the orcs to a special place.

Lordan Mill Asylum

When the matter reached a critical moment, both of them were nervously watching the progress of the situation.

However, the ensuing situation is not encouraging.

More and more orcs gathered in the forests surrounding Lordamir's asylum, hiding and not moving.

"What are they going to do?"

At this time, Gianna was also a little nervous.

Kyle Tas silently observed the situation.

On the road down the mountain, several prisoner carts loaded with orcs caught his attention.

【Sal】

Kael'thas spotted Thrall among the orcs.

He was taken aback.

"Gianna, I guess why don't we go inside the Lordamir asylum?"

Kael'thas proposed.

But he soon took the initiative to deny this reckless act, as he discovered the shadow of the orcs of the Warsong Clan.

The Warsong Clan is here, which means that Grom is also here.

Whatever reason Thrall was captured by humans, he couldn't have been fine.

The biggest problem now is Kyl'Thas and Gianna.

"It's not safe to stay here."

After explaining this to Gianna, Kael'thas took her away from the growing group of orcs.

His choice was timely, as Orgrim arrived just after the two left.

The orcs cordoned off the forest, then attacked the Lordamire asylum one night, rescuing a large number of orcs and heading east for the Arathi Heights.

Kael'thas and Gianna arrive at the Lordamir Shelter, where the walls have been destroyed.

There are also many other emissaries here to investigate.

"What's going on here?"

In order to get the truth, the two revealed their identities and asked the commander here.

A detailed piece of information was given to the two to see.

The most prominent in the intelligence was Thrall, who was not caught, but 'deliberately' caught sneaking into the Lordamire asylum to stir up the orcs.

The young orc shaman convinced the orcs with his words and promises, and that very night, the orcs cooperated and escaped.

However, apart from the city walls, the casualties from this battle were very small.

It seems that this is also due to Thrall's shouting during the battle for the orcs not to kill senselessly.

Gianna was very interested in Sal.

"Who's that orc?"

She used her identity to get some of the non-commissioned officers to quickly get out of the hidden.

Thrall's identity is not a secret, long before Blackmore in Dunhold Prison determined that the orc who caused the chaos was the orc slave he adopted, he immediately concealed it.

But this matter is still known to many people.

Sal's story was easily passed on to Gianna.

"The same age as me? Slave? ”

Kael'thas clearly saw Gianna's interest.

"You'd like to meet?"

He opened his mouth in confusion.

"Of course."

Unexpectedly, Gianna nodded immediately:

"An orc my age, he's very powerful, I want to see it."

She smiled at Kael'thas with her mouth cocked:

"Didn't you say that learned mages should take a look at it?"

"I want to see how that orc slave who grew up living in the dark, how he is different from me."

At this time, Kael'thas did not find any color other than interest in Gianna's face.

It seems that she does not hate Sal.

"I don't think you will be disappointed"

So Kael'thas smiled and said to Gianna:

"Or maybe it's going to be a surprise."

Gianna and Sal have been good friends in their original history, and Kael'thas doesn't want to change that.

He was dedicated to the High Elves, but if the Alliance and the Horde could live in peace, the Elves would have sacrificed a lot less anyway.
