The sky was reddened by flames.

For hours from the afternoon to the evening, meteorites fell incessantly over Felwood.

Kael'thas took the two of them for a long time, still shocked by the blood-red world behind them from time to time.

The call of hellfire alone has only been so long, how many demons have come to this world in the Burning Legion?

Regardless, these demons seem to be enough to break through the Night Elves' defenses and invade Mount Hyjal.

[Is Akmund really going to die?] 】

At this time, even Kael'thas began to get a little nervous.

The demons are powerful, what if they succeed - the world is destroyed, and no amount of plans will be in vain.

But he thought about it, and finally chose to believe in Nozdorm, the time dragon, and he couldn't allow the destruction of the world unprepared.

And with a god like Medivan in action, there's no reason why Akmund's ambitions can't be stopped.

At night, Illidan enters a Night Elf city.

The city is not in Mount Hyjal, and it seems that the Night Elves did not hide the water from the Well of Eternity.

The Demon Hunter himself could have allowed himself to go into the shadows to hide, but in this place, it was difficult for the three of Kael'thas to follow up.

They had to stay in the dense forest, far from the elven watching, and waited while munching on bread.

However, there are still some blue elves floating in the darkened forest, and Kael'thas has to move from time to time to avoid these elves from spotting.

After some time. The wandering elves became sparse.

"What's going on?"

Kael'thas doesn't think this is normal.

He asked Aurelia to use her Eagle Eye spell to probe her surroundings.

The female ranger gave a surprising piece of news.

"Your Highness. A group of Night Elves are heading here. ”

As soon as she had finished speaking, Kael'thas jumped onto the branches of the tree with the two girls. Quietly hidden.

A few minutes later, hundreds of heavily armed female Night Elves came running on leopards.

"Stop."

Leading the elves was a female elf with piercing eyes, her slender body covered in a large cape, and a helmet on her head, making it impossible to see her exact appearance.

But judging by the voice, this person should be a big beauty.

Kael'thas squinted at her, then identified the Night Elf from the lunate-like weapon.

Mavi. Shadow Song. and Tyrande's unsuccessful woman for the High Priestess, the sister of Garrod, the Night Elf commander of the Ancient Wars, and now the leader of the Night Elves' prison and magistrate organization 'The Warden'.

This woman's mind is very famous for its extremes.

She would not spare any of the perpetrators, especially Illidan who had been imprisoned for 10,000 years.

"Hostess. There is no Illidan here, and there is no smell of outsiders. ”

Let the leopards sniff around, and follow Mavi's female lieutenant to report to her.

"Look again, Nessa I just sensed something."

Mavi said unmoved:

"Go and look into these places in the trees."

[Danger. 】

Kael'thas immediately reached out his hand, ready to teleport.

But after thinking that the fluctuations of the teleportation technique could not hide from these pursuing experts, he smiled bitterly.

"Wait."

With Aurelia and the two of them, Kael'thas jumped off the branch.

The sudden appearance of the three people immediately caused a lot of fluctuations in the group of caretakers.

"The High Elves of Quel'Thalas?"

Mavi stretched out her hand to stop her subordinates from floating, and then looked cautiously:

"How did you end up here?"

She wasn't much surprised.

Kael'thas thought something strange.

"You know us?"

He had always thought that the Night Elves were old fellows who were closed doors, but he didn't expect to meet a well-informed one.

"Don't think I don't know what you're thinking."

Mavi was unhappy with Kael'thas in the eyes. Coldly replied:

"We guards are different from druids, and we often travel to and from place to hunt down prisoners, so we naturally know you."

"Stop talking nonsense, answer me, what are you doing here?"

She patted the leopard beside her, and the clever creature bared its teeth and glared at it fiercely.

This is a warning.

If Kael'thas hadn't given them a decent reason, Mavi would have taken them as intruders.

With a quick turn of his brain, Kael'thas instantly thought of a reason.

"We saw a strange demon coming this way in Felwood. So I followed all the way. ”

He argued:

"But the demon has already entered the city on its own, and we ran into you just as we wanted to return."

This lie is half-true, and it should be able to deceive Mavi.

Mavi had already chased Illidan here, and should know his whereabouts, and there was no loss in those words.

"Mistress, the intelligence does indicate that Illidan has become a demon."

Nessa whispered to Mavi:

"He shouldn't be lying."

Mavi nodded coldly.

She stared at the three of Kael'thas and was sure that their strength could not do anything great in this Night Elf homeland.

"Forget it this time."

The leopard crouched down, and Mavi did it lightly.

She turned to Kael'thas and said:

"Looking at the appearance of those two women, your status should not be low, I don't want to have a dispute with the forces of Quel'Thalas."

"You'd better get out of here before I arrest the prisoners and come back!"

Even though Kael'thas didn't guess whose identity he was, Mavi cautiously let them go.

It was only after she left with the watcher that Kael'thas breathed a sigh of relief.

"It looks like my luck hasn't been at its peak yet."

He smiled. Then reach out and pull up the corner of the cloak:

"It's good they didn't see behind me."

On his cloak there is the emblem of the family of the day, which is too conspicuous.

[Do you want to change it?] 】

Kael'thas thought. But he didn't feel the need for such trouble—because there was no second cloak.

"Let's follow."

For some reason, Kael'thas felt a hint of unease.

He led Aurelia and the others towards the outskirts of the Night Elf's city. Try to keep the shortest distance from Illidan and be ready to meet him when he comes out.

――

On the other side, the night of Mount Hyjal flashed with fire.

Tens of thousands of Night Elves blocked the entrance, and dragons of different colors flew through the air and spewed flames, trying to stop the Burning Legion's attack.

But the increasingly fierce offensive still left the defense line shaky.

The four guardian dragons gather in Mount Hyjal to meet Malfurion and the others.

"Except for Maloneos and Tikdios. The Burning Legion has not yet sent any other officers. ”

The Red Dragon Queen Alexstasa said worriedly:

"What are they planning?"

"It doesn't matter, I think they're just like us, they don't want to show their cards so early."

Malfurion turned his eyes to Nozdorm and asked hesitantly:

"You see"

Before he could ask, Nozdom looked at the sky behind him.

"There's a guest coming."

Time Dragon said.

The others watched as they spoke. A blood crow was spotted flying quickly from the sky.

"Who are you?"

Malfurion, sensing the strangeness of the crow, asked first as it flew closer.

The crow slowly turned into a human mage.

"Medivan, my name is Medivan."

His name shocked those who knew it, and those who didn't know it could detect the solemnity in the reactions of his peers.

However, Medivan didn't mind in the slightest.

He looked at Nozdorm with strange eyes, then turned to Malfurion and said:

"I have brought you two allies who can help you defend against the Burning Legion's machinations."

Ally?

Malfurion frowned.

"Who is it?"

He asked.

Medivan then chuckled:

"The Alliance and the Horde, they're ready."

Malfurion instantly felt a subtle change in the air around him.

He looked over at the guardian dragons, and could see their slightly relaxed cheeks.

"We have no intention of hiding it."

Ysera gently explained to him:

"However, neither the dragons nor the Night Elves can stop Akmund."

"You should know very well how powerful he is."

Malfurion recalls the battles he saw in the Battle of the Ancients, and Akmund was arguably the most powerful demon outside of Sargeras.

The spells he wielded could even curse other people's children and grandchildren. Even the father of the demigod Cenarius, Malon, who was Elune's consort, was killed by Akmund when his neck was broken.

Akmund was so powerful that even everyone present could not defeat him.

But Malfurion didn't want to accept aid from unknown sources - especially since the Orcs of the Horde had killed Cenarius a while ago.

"Take me to meet their leader!"

He decided to go and see for himself the purpose of the two mortal forces.

"Follow me."

Mediven nodded, then turned back into a raven to lead the way.

Malfurion glanced at his wife beside him.

"Let's go together!"

Tyrande smiled.

Together, they quickly followed, followed by the guardian dragons.

――

The three of Kael'thas waited for hours on the outskirts of the city, finally spotting Illidan's departure just as the moon was rising in the middle of it.

The half-demon, half-elf moved away faster than expected, and the three of them bent over the edge of the city and chased for an hour to reach their destination.

Unexpectedly, however, after arriving. They didn't find Illidan.

A golden feather was discarded on the grass, shimmering slightly.

Kael'thas carefully picked up the feather.

“”

"That blind Night Elf!!"

He spat out the name with a cold face, and his body burned with devouring flames.

Kael'thas still underestimated Illidan as a demon hunter, believing too much in the convenience of Phoenix Feather.
