The slanting sun gently ripples on the surface of the lake, and when the wind blows, it occasionally drops leaves overhead.

After a brief conversation, the two did not talk again.

Kael'thas lay peacefully in the water and enjoyed a moment of tranquility, and after washing away the dust of a few days, his mind became open and calm.

He looked at the bright red sky through the cracks in the leaves, and thought to himself that it would always be like this.

Ever since Kaelsala's death, the heavy sense of mission and the safety of the race has weighed on him like a mountain, and no matter how much he pretends to be strong, he is still longing for a time to be relieved.

However, he was almost always accompanied by elves, and he could not let them perceive his vulnerability.

Only the time to take a bath and sleep can make him relax a little.

Perhaps because of the nervousness, Kael'thas has been sleeping mostly in nightmares for the last few days, and he hasn't taken a bath for a long time.

So at this moment, he didn't want to think about anything, he just wanted to stay quietly for a while.

After a long time.

Kael'thas came to his senses, and the lake outside could no longer hear Onexia's play.

[Is she washed?] 】

He smiled wryly at his inattention, then stood up and walked towards the shore.

The fire that had been raised before bathing had been extinguished, and only a few flames remained. Kael'thas reached out and touched the clothes hanging from the tree, and he was almost done.

He put the clothes inside his necklace, then dried his body and hair, and took out a red mage robe to put on.

"Onexia."

Kael'thas walked out and searched for the Black Dragon Princess along the shore.

But he didn't hear a reply, something strange.

What did she do? 】

After searching for a few minutes without a trace, Kael'thas had to return to where they had first arrived and wait.

After a while, the sound of wings flapping and flying was heard by him from afar.

Kael'thas turned around, and the huge black dragon flew back with a claw on a wild sheep.

"Plop—"

The goat was gently tossed to the ground, and Kael'thas frowned and took a step back, only to realize that it was a dead goat.

"What is this?"

He asked, confused.

"Dinner, of course."

The black dragon princess quickly turned into the appearance of a high elf and landed lightly on the ground.

She raised her eyebrows and smiled:

"Will you handle this thing?"

"Processing?"

"It's just baked or boiled, as long as it's cooked!"

"This"

Kael'thas hesitated, he looked at the size of the wild sheep larger than him, and felt a pressure:

"I will, but this is too big, and it's troublesome to deal with it beforehand."

"Besides, we don't need to prepare food here, it's dinner time when we get back."

Humans have special cooking classes that also provide them with food, which is not very tasty, but very convenient.

"There's not enough there, so I stuff my teeth."

Onexia complained:

"Little one, I'm a black dragon."

I didn't think about it when I signed the contract, and it wasn't until a while later that Onexia realized that maintaining the form of an elf was a very torturous thing.

Not only can I not move my body, but I can't eat too much in order not to make humans suspicious.

This is undoubtedly a disaster for a dragon. Although Onexia doesn't have to eat as much every time, she is much like some animals and needs to keep plenty of food to keep her alive.

A satisfying diet can keep her hungry for weeks.

Now, it's time to eat.

"I'll take care of it for you, you can help me get it cooked!"

Onexia ignored Kael'thas and picked up the fat goat with her little hands and walked towards the lake.

Then, there was a creepy tearing sound, and Kael'thas quickly turned his back to her.

[Can't you Sven order? 】

He complained a little in his heart, and the scene he saw just now made him unbearable.

"Here you go."

In less than 2 minutes, Onexia returned and handed the goat to Kael'thas.

Kael'thas watched speechlessly as all the entrails disappeared, leaving only the skin and flesh of the goat.

"It's really clean."

He sighed and took it, feeling very heavy, but he took it.

"I don't like to eat what's inside."

Onexia explained, then stepped aside and turned into a black dragon again:

"You do it first, I'll go and catch some more."

"Huh!?"

[And?] 】

Kael'thas opened, but the Black Dragon Princess ignored him and flapped her wings and left.

Helpless.

"Little Ao" "Little Fire"

Kael'thas summoned his two companions and asked them to help.

After working for a long time, he prepared the place and the fire, and began the laborious barbecue time.

There are a lot of seasonings in his necklace, so he doesn't worry much about the taste.

But, even then, when Onexia returned with the sixth goat, all the seasonings were not enough.

"These are all burned, why don't you eat them while they're hot?"

Kael'thas asked Onexia strangely as he vigorously flipped the last goat.

In the clean area next to it, the first few roasted wild sheep were almost cold, but Onexia did not have the slightest tendency to move, and watched his actions staringly.

"I'm going to eat it all after it's all cooked, so it's refreshing!"

Onexia replied.

"Really? However, this last one is not seasoned enough and may not be delicious. ”

Kael'thas understands this behavior, and he likes to stack delicious food and eat it in one sitting, which is very enjoyable.

But if there's something unpalatable in it, there's no need.

"I'll eat your light taste first."

Onexia replied indifferently:

"It's worse at the beginning, but if you eat it in one go, you will feel more refreshed!"

Kael'thas was stunned.

"Whatever you want."

He smiled helplessly, he remembered Xiao Ao who had just canceled the summoning, and this phoenix would also pick up food a long time ago.

But I don't know when it started, but it actually lost interest in food.

Just now he wanted Xiao Ao to eat something, but this phoenix directly refused, as for Hellfire, this stupid big guy has never been in the habit of eating.

Seriously, these two are elemental creatures, not animal life, so it is not surprising.

The last of the wild sheep was well cooked, and Kael'thas was tired to death, and he said to Onexia that he could finally rest.

"Haha, you're welcome."

Onexia laughed, picked up a whole roast lamb, and ate it in a big gulp.

"Whew, the little guy has a good job"

She devoured it and complimented her.

It seems that this roast lamb, which does not have enough seasoning, did not disappoint her.

"Thank you."

Kael'thas thanked him, and in any case, it was a happy thing for something he had worked so hard to make to be recognized by others.

Of course, the other party is a black dragon, an animal that can eat everything raw, and this compliment has to be discounted in half.

"Then I'll eat a little too."

After roasting for so long, Kael'thas was also a little hungry, and tore a leg from a roast lamb that was still hot and ate it.

This leg is enough for him to eat until his stomach is full.

Before I knew it, it was already night, and Kael'thas was sitting on the shore, eating while looking at the clear sky.

The star-dotted sky is dark and far away

However, it feels completely different from Quel'Thalas's.

When I was young, in the company of Kaelsara, the starry sky I looked up from the Tower of Chasing Heavens was warm and strange.

A little longer, under the leadership of Mephites, the starry sky that looks up from the Arcane Dao is mysterious and alluring.

After becoming a prince, with the support of the High Elves, the starry sky looked up from various villages and towns was sad and heavy.

Kael'thas suddenly discovers that his soul in this world has stayed in Quel'Thalas forever.

"What are you looking at?"

Onexia quickly finished solving a roast lamb, and was holding another one to eat, when she saw Kael'thas in her gaze, and laughed:

"Little one, there's nothing on there."

"I looked at it for thousands of years, and it turned out that there was nothing on it."

In her long life, the starry sky was the least valuable thing.

"No, it's just that you can't see it."

Kael'thas shook his head, lowered his eyes, and said softly:

"If you really want to see it, you'll find something on it."

Onexia took a bite of the roast lamb and munched on it, noncommittally.

Her mind wasn't there.

Or is the food in front of you more attractive.

Half an hour later, Onexia ate all the roast lamb in her stomach and coughed contentedly.

She stood up, walked to the side, and then her body changed, turning back into a tall black dragon.

"How did you change back?"

Kael'thas asked a little strangely.

"When you're full, it's easier to digest it back like this."

Onexia replied.

She turned the faucet toward Kael'thas and let out a breath:

"Come on, little one, I'll take you back."

Kael'thas was stunned.

"What did you say!?"

He was pleasantly surprised:

"You're going to take me back?"

"Well, that's right."

Onexia nodded, and swung her body so that her tail was flat on the ground:

"Climb up from my tail, little one, you'd love to sit down."

"I, the Black Dragon Princess, have fulfilled your little wish!"

"Really?"

Kael'thas still couldn't believe it.

"Nonsense, are you going to do it or not?"

Onexia got a little impatient.

"I'll sit!"

Kael'thas nodded hurriedly, and then climbed up Onexia's tail with ease.

He came to Onexia's back, sat firmly, and put his hand on the spikes that protruded from her neck.

Those horrible-looking thorns now made him sit more steadily.

"Sit tight, fly too fast for a while, I don't care about you if you fall!"

Onexia laughed and flapped her wings and flew up.

But contrary to her words, this black dragon flew carefully and steadily.
