Chapter 327: I'll keep waiting
After reuniting with Thrall, they upgraded into a team of four and continued their journey through the forest.
"Where are we going?"
After a few days of getting along, Karina barely got the approval of the trio, and while resting by the river, she asked.
It was noon, and the golden sunlight shone directly overhead, making the forest walkers feel warm.
"Go west."
Kael'thas replied that he didn't trust the huntress very much right now, so he didn't want her to know where to go.
The Coalition has established a 'Lordamire Shelter' to the west of the Hillsbrad Hills, which contains a large number of orcs, and it is there that Kael'thas has set his sights on it.
He's going to take Thrall to that asylum to find the orc's way.
"Hmm"
It was easy to see that Kael'thas didn't want to answer her question, and Karina didn't mind.
She turned around and untied the horse tied to the tree, and then pulled it underneath and didn't know what to do, and the horse ran away with a "hiss~".
"Karina, why did you let it go?"
Teresa asked her a little strangely.
In the first few days of the trip, thanks to the horse carrying the two girls, Teresa was able to make it all the way here.
"The soles of its feet are about to be overwhelmed, and it can't be allowed to continue walking the mountain path."
Karina replied to Teresa.
This made Kael'thas who heard their conversation move.
"Isn't that horse your mount?"
He felt something was wrong early on.
"What are you talking about, it's certainly not a mount anymore."
But Karina looked at Kael'thas with the eyes of a fool:
"You can tell at a glance whether it's good or not, it's a pet I caught."
The pet that the hunter refers to is different from ordinary pets, and is more like an animal that fights together like a partner.
But Kael'thas had never heard of horses as pets.
"Can a hunter catch a horse as a pet?"
He asked Karina, a little surprised.
It was hard for him to imagine a hunter shooting an arrow at the enemy, and a horse rushing forward with its hooves and mouth to attack the enemy.
"Of course not for ordinary hunters."
Saying this, Karina raised her eyebrows proudly:
"But I'm different from them, I'm a genius."
The huntress's confidence left both men speechless, but Teresa's eyes sparkled.
"Then why don't you catch some tigers and leopards as pets and catch a horse instead?"
Kael'thas asked, with some headache.
"Tigers and leopards are too ordinary"
Karina pursed her lips, and then she smiled again:
"I found this horse in Talunmir, it's handsome, isn't it?"
It reminded Teresa of the tickle.
"Is it because of this horse that you are being chased?"
After she asked carefully, she saw Karina's nod.
"But didn't you offend the lord?"
Teresa recalled the gossip she had heard in Tarummere, a little confused.
"Well, I offended that guy because of this horse."
Karina explained with a smile:
"When I saw this horse on the street, I took control of it because I liked it."
"But I didn't notice that there was another person on its back."
As if remembering something funny, Karina burst out laughing:
"That idiot didn't even know what I was doing until I took control, and he was dumped right down by the horse."
Obviously, that man was the lord of Talenmere.
Several people mourned in silence for the lord.
[Maybe he hasn't signed a contract yet.] 】
Kael'thas knew that the mount that had signed the contract would not be controlled by anyone else, so Karina was really looking for the right time.
However, this matter is not important to him at the moment.
It was at this time that Kael'thas finally determined that Karina was not someone he knew
The huntress had a proud surname, not anyone he knew well, and Kael'thas had not detected magical fluctuations in her.
Actually, some magic items don't have magic fluctuations, but Kael'thas hasn't touched anything like that yet.
He identified Karina as a strange human.
And this is also in line with Karina's thoughts.
[Kael'thas, sister, I'm also a must in acting]
This female ranger hidden under the human exterior has a very complicated heart, but it does not affect her performance.
Except for Teresa, no one noticed her abnormality.
But Theresa only noticed one thing, and that was that Karina was more interested in Kael'thas
After the break they continued on their way, and after the horses Teresa became very slow, often not needing Thrall's help.
"Teresa, you can't go on like this."
Karina seemed a little dissatisfied:
"You're too weak, start training with me tomorrow."
Her words stunned the others.
"Can Teresa become a hunter?"
Thrall first showed a look of joy, but on the orc's face, perhaps only Teresa could tell.
"The advanced ones are not good, but the ordinary ones are fine."
Karina looked at Teresa and explained:
"But as an ordinary hunter, as long as you learn to control the beast, Teresa you don't have to walk on your own feet."
Ordinary beasts pose no threat to any profession
Therefore, even a beginner hunter can control a leopard enough.
Kael'thas also affirmed Karina's words:
"It's a good proposition."
Even if you become a mage, you have to walk on your legs before you don't have a mount, and the hunter has no worries about that.
Teresa was a little overwhelmed by the words of the two.
"Me, can I?"
She looked at Karina, afraid that the hunter would say the same thing as Kael'thas had last time.
"No problem, as long as you try."
Karina spotted a small snake in the tree, and immediately shot it seven inches with her bow, and then said casually:
"I can promise to get you into junior for a month."
Teresa's face suddenly became excited.
"I'll definitely do my best!"
She assured.
In this way, Teresa became Karina's little student.
In order to maintain her speed as quickly as possible, Karina went to capture a strong leopard and let it carry Teresa forward.
Thrall, on the other hand, is still accustomed to the path of the forest and has become very proficient.
They walked in the forest during the day, and at night they found a place with water to rest, and lived a very simple life.
And Teresa began to learn from Karina.
This night, they stopped again at a lake, and Teresa was pulled by Karina to train.
"Fishing?"
Kael'thas pricked up his ears to listen to their somewhat amusing conversation.
"Yes, fishing!"
Karina stood by the lake and said to Teresa with a tight face:
"Fishing makes you calmer, which is very important for you to learn to control the beast."
"And I've long heard that the fish of the hills of Hillsbrad have a peculiar kind of fish that is said to improve the hunter's eyesight when eaten."
Her words sounded like a lie full of holes to Kael'thas, but they worked very well for Teresa.
"Yes, yes? I'll do my best! ”
Teresa was easily explained, and then took the fishing rod and walked towards the lake.
This girl is usually not stupid, but when she is faced with an opportunity to change her fate, she always believes these seemingly reasonable words.
"Teresa, wait."
Sal seemed to be worried about Teresa's safety, and went with him.
The campfire was left with Kael'thas and Karina.
"Do you want to eat fish?"
Kael'thas asked her with a smile.
"Well, I'm tired of eating rabbits and bread."
Karina lay lazily against the tree, and said nonchalantly.
The campfire crackled and fell silent
Kael'thas wiped it carefully with a one-handed hammer, his eyes focused and serious.
Karina secretly skimmed him
She liked Kael'thas to be quiet.
"Hey"
But Karina doesn't like Kael'thas ignoring her:
"Why do you say there is day and night?"
She casually found a topic to come up with.
"Hmm"
Kael'thas put down his one-handed hammer in thought.
"Maybe it's because the single world is too boring."
He couldn't find any answers, so he could only ramble them out.
Karina turned to look at him:
"And do you like dark nights like this?"
Kael'thas looked at her a little strangely, but he still pointed to Karina's blonde hair in the dark:
"I think I prefer that bright day."
During the night, both of their blonde hair was flooded with silver moonlight, which reminded Kael'thas of the elves of Quel'Thalas.
Karina grabbed her blonde hair.
"Do you like this?"
She pursed her mouth with a smirk.
"I like it too."
Karina looked at Kael'thas and turned her gaze to his hair.
But she soon added:
"But I don't hate dark nights like this either, and I've always thought that it's better to have someone at night than during the day."
Nights are always lonely and lonely, but as long as there is a suitable person by her side, she will feel happy.
"And what if there's no one to accompany you?"
Kael'thas looked up at the sky:
"With no one with you, what would you do in such a dark night?"
He reminisced about the memories of his past life, but he couldn't find any valuable nights.
The same goes for Karina
She had spent more than a hundred years alone, five or six thousand lonely nights
"I'll wait."
Karina chuckled softly, but Kael'thas didn't look over, so he didn't see the familiar tenderness in the smile.
"If I stay alone in a dark night like this, I will wait, and wait forever"
"I will wait until someone who can accompany me will be there for me again"
She waited 200 years for a Kael'thas to arrive, which Karina believed must be an inevitable encounter.
Even if she falls into the darkness again
She would wait, waiting for the person in front of her to rescue her from her loneliness again.
Because she is Sylvanas, the raiser of Kael'thas and his sister.
