"If Her Excellency the Queen is not there...... In fact, we don't have any advantage in this war......"

King Terenus said to his son in a deep voice, and although he was pessimistic in his conversation, His Majesty's tone was as calm as ever.

"That's true...... But luckily we still have a little frost. ”

Arthas smiled—the disappearance of the Red Dragon Queen had indeed weakened Lordaeron's power, but in Arthas's heart, Frost Grief had always relied on him.

"Your thoughts are exactly what I feared, Arthas...... I hope you will understand that we rely only on the royal power of House Minahir and the royal guards of Lordaeron that are loyal to it...... Others, whether it is the power of Her Excellency the Queen or the ...... This lovely fiancée of yours is not enough to be a 'dependent', do you know what I mean? ”

King Terenus sank his face and said earnestly to Arthas.

"But...... Father, I don't understand ......"

Arthas was stunned, and he looked at his father in some surprise, not knowing what he wanted to teach himself.

"I mean...... You know what we're going to do next, right? I mean after defeating Jean's army. ”

King Terenus sighed and whispered.

"Of course, father. We will occupy this country, just as we did with the Kingdom of Alterac...... Our allies may share in our spoils, but ...... When the war is over. The country of Gilneth will not continue to exist in this world, will it? ”

Arthas said earnestly.

"By and large, you're right. But...... Arthas, you think of a qiē too easily. This war, maybe well won, but to occupy Gilneth and occupy the country...... It's not that easy. ”

King Terenas said to his son.

"However, with a little frost, we should be able to ...... easily"

Arthas replied in surprise—just as he thought. He believed that the outcome of the war was predestined from the very beginning.

Although Dalaran's attitude was somewhat unexpected for Arthas, Lordaeron had a war-tested army and allies, and more importantly. There is no power in mortal worlds that can resist the Frost Sorrow - as the Scourge Legion that swept through Azeroth in the original flow of time had demonstrated.

"Look. That's the problem I'm talking about. My son, you seem to have gone into a misunderstanding. ”

King Terenus put down his knife and fork and looked at Arthas earnestly.

"Misunderstanding?"

Arthas did almost the same - he was intrigued by what his father was about to say - or rather, he rarely had the opportunity to have a serious conversation with his father like this after he had traveled through time with Frostmourn.

Both Archmage Modra and Kalia fell silent, sipping their food silently, not even making the sound of chewing, for fear of disturbing the conversation between the two most important men in their lives.

Instead, Taresa looked more relaxed. She stood behind Kalia, looking at Frost Sorrow across from her with a puzzled expression.

Odd. Her Royal Highness Princess Kalia and Her Excellency Archmage Modra have become quiet, why does Lady Frost dare to grimace at His Majesty King Terenus?

"I think you must be curious why I let you lead the army alone in the face of the mighty Amani Empire; In the face of the Kingdom of Gilneth, I have to personally go and command the battle...... Do you understand why? Alsace. ”

King Terenus said.

"I ...... Not too clear. ”

Arthas said honestly - he did think about the question, he thought he already had the answer, but seeing King Terenus say this, Arthas had little confidence in his own answer.

"The difference between the Kingdom of Gilneth and Amani is ...... This time, our enemies are human beings—who are no different from us in appearance or culture, except for their accents and customs; Even a few years ago, they were our allies. ”

King Terenus explained.

"But apparently this ally of the Kingdom of Gilneth is somewhat incompetent - I think any one who puts Jean? Greymane will pay the price for believing in his allies. ”

Arthas retorted to his father's words.

"Indeed, Jean ...... His character determines his actions. We were close friends for a while before we both became kings, but when he came to the throne...... You know, the Kingdom of Gilneth soon waged war against the Hillsbrad Hills. ”

King Terenus nodded, agreeing with Arthas.

"So what's the difference between them and trolls? We ......"

Arthas became more and more unaware of his father's meaning.

"Of course there is a difference, my sons, they are human beings, they are our fellow citizens; The cost of starting a war may be borne by the entire kingdom of Gilneis, but there is no doubt that the Greymane family bears the main responsibility, and the other nobles, those commoners, we can't kill them all in the war, right? ”

King Terenus looked at his son in amazement, he did not expect that Arthas's ideas were more radical than he had expected.

"A hearty victory will let the nobles know whom they should submit to, and the commoners...... I'm sure they're more concerned about the weight of their taxes. ”

Arthas shook his head and said - he didn't think it was something worthy of his father's attention.

"You're thinking too much of this stuff, Arthas...... The ancestors of the Minahir family brought countless lords and nobles into submission and established the most extensive human state since the division of the Arathor Empire, not only because they conquered these places, but more importantly, they conquered the people of these places. ”

King Terenus's tone was long and profound, and Arthas seemed to feel a supreme glory from his father's words—the glory of the Minethil family.

"What do you mean...... Do we need to win the hearts and minds of the people of Gilneth? My father. ”

Arthas lowered his head and thought for a moment before he said with some uncertainty.

"You're right, my son. As I said before, the Kingdom of Gilneth is a human nation, and we can't deal with them the same way we do with trolls. If the Minehir family wants to live in Gilneth for a long time, we have many, many things to do beyond breaking down that 'Wall of Greymane'......"

King Terenus replied. (To be continued......)
