Kael'thas returns to the room to study the new runes.

But it took him a morning, and he didn't find any clue.

There was some disappointment, but more of a matter of course.

If it's that easy to start, then Mephites doesn't need to give him so much information.

Kael'thas decided to get out and get some air, hoping that an open mind would inspire him.

After leaving the room, before it was time for lunch, he walked out with a few elves and walked down the streets of the harbor.

The bustling streets were quiet without their owners, all the gates locked, and only bands of human soldiers patrolling the streets.

"Any good places to introduce?"

Kael'thas stopped, turned to the elves who were following him.

But he didn't know, how could these elves who had moved less know?

Kael'thas didn't get the answer he wanted, so he headed for the port.

[I don't know when Sylvanas will arrive.] 】

Although he had the idea of greeting him, he didn't think Sylvanas would come so early—Baron Sangunel should have just arrived in the Silver Pines Forest by now.

Judging by the time, Sylvanas would not arrive until evening at the earliest.

Kael'thas didn't expect it at all, and the other party set off early in the morning.

He made his way to the port, and the human soldiers stationed there turned their eyes to him, perhaps wondering why Kael'thas had come to such a place.

The winds in the port have always been stronger than in the interior.

Kael'thas stood by the sea, breathing in the smell of the ocean, which was completely different from Quel'Salas.

When he was a child, he always accompanied Kael Sala to fish, and his childhood without freedom made him even a little tired of the taste of the ocean.

He always wanted to get out, always wanted to fight

However, after all these years, when Kael'thas had become accustomed to fighting, he realized how precious it was.

Since the birth of this world, it has been enveloped in war, and for tens of thousands of years, war has never stopped.

It was as if the whole of Azeroth existed for war, from the past to the present, and the future, all of which were war and sorrow.

In this cruel world.

Why do I want to fight? 】

Kael'thas felt a little ridiculous about what he thought when he was a child.

Kaelsala is protecting young Kael'thas in his own way, and he has long known that war is inevitable, so he will let Kael'thas spend his childhood quietly.

That childhood, which became Kael'thas's most precious memory, will never return

【】

Kael'thas felt some regret.

"Can you find me a fishing rod?"

He turned his head and smiled at the elves.

Kael'thas hadn't fished since he was a child, and he wanted to try again to see if he could get that feeling back.

"Fishing rods?"

"But Your Highness, you can't catch any fish here!"

The elves looked at each other, then reminded.

This Minahill port is one of the most prosperous ports in the human world, and human beings do not have as strong a sense of caring for nature as the elves, so although the sea water here is not particularly polluted, there are no fish.

"I know."

Kael'thas smiled:

"I'm not fishing, I just want to sit and sit, don't mind so much, just give me a fishing rod."

“”

"Wait a minute"

An elf saluted.

He went to talk to some of the human soldiers, then got permission to take a fishing rod from a tackle shop and return to the port.

"Your Highness, give."

The elf handed the fishing rod to Kael'thas.

Not even a bait was prepared.

Kael'thas didn't care, quietly found a spot, sat down and gently dropped the fishing rod.

He paid no attention to the dust, sat down on the plank that stretched into the ocean, stretched his feet out, and fished comfortably against the sea breeze.

Although the smell in the nose has changed, the touch of the rod in the hand has not changed.

Kael'thas couldn't help but squint his eyes, his mind wandering.

He seemed to hear the sound of the leaves singing behind him as the sea breeze blew. In the beautiful Yongge Forest, the trees always love to sing with the wind.

'Kael'thas. ’

At this time, there will always be someone who accompanies him and gently calls his name.

But Kael'thas knew he would never hear that gentle voice again.

What is lost, can never be recovered

- Twenty minutes passed.

A new ship came from the north, and Sylvanas stood alone on deck.

She saw Kael'thas figure.

The young prince, who has grown up, stays alone on the beach fishing, and his long golden hair is as bright as ever.

Sylvanas was stunned.

Then, she chuckled softly.

On the way here, she had been thinking, thinking about what would become of Kael'thas after months of fighting.

but

[He's still him.] 】

Kael'thas is still Kael'thas anyway, her younger brother

Sylvanas' eyes softened, and in her eyes, Kael'thas became the familiar child.

Quiet, pretty, with big blue eyes

Children who fascinate her

Why do you always surprise me? 】

Sylvanas touched her leaping chest and muttered softly.

In all her long years, she had never been so fond of a person.

Whether as a child or growing up, Kael'thas has always haunted her heart.

This is a monster that seduces people's hearts.

But, just because it's a monster

[I won't hand you over to anyone else.] 】

Whatever the reason, Kael'thas is her monster and can only belong to her.

Sylvanas won't let go, no matter who it is, no matter what fate it is, it can't stop her progress.

"Lord Sylvanas, docked."

Lotharma's soft voice came from behind him, and Sylvanas came back to his senses.

"Hmm."

She nodded her head with a normal face, and slowly walked off the boat with Lotherma.

On the other hand, Kael'thas, who was noticed by the ship, also noticed her appearance.

He was a little surprised, but he was ready to put the rod away.

But as soon as Kael'thas moved, he saw the booy swing, and then his arm sank.

[Didn't you say there were no fish? 】

Kael'thas thought something strange.

But he thought about it and let the fish go.

After standing up and putting away the line, Kael'thas handed the rod to his followers, then turned to wait for Sylvanas to come.

However, Sylvanas didn't take a few steps and suddenly looked at Kael'thas sideways with a frown, and stopped.

How?

Kael'thas was stunned for a moment, and then his heart suddenly exploded.

"Frost Nova."

He stepped on his feet, and ice blue energy erupted from the soles of his feet, and the cold air instantly swept through the surrounding land.

But

No one was seen.

[Not an enemy? 】

Kael'thas was a little strange as he looked at Sylvanas, only to see that she had drawn a bow.

"You can't hide!"

Her voice was indifferent, and a blue arrow flew through and landed at a shipping container next to Kael'thas.

"Ahhh

The container burst instantly, splintered wood flew wildly, and a terrible scream rang out at the same time.

By the time Kael'thas turned his head, an orc had fallen to the ground, motionless.

"He's dead."

The elf behind him reported.

Kael'thas only then came to his senses, presumably the orc was very alert and dodged his spell in time for the container.

But even so, he was discovered by Sylvanas.

[Her arrows are still as powerful.] 】

Kael'thas sighed inwardly, feeling that his strength was still too low.

"Your Highness, long time no see."

Sylvanas walked up to him, hiding her thoughts, and greeted with a cold face.

She doesn't always put her true expression out, and even if Kael'thas secretly determines her mind, sometimes there are always doubts about whether she really likes him.

Sylvanas' disguise was the most successful, and no one could tell what she was thinking.

Valera can't compare to her in this regard.

The female thief with a surging murder weapon, although she rarely showed affection, but this was due to her own weak feelings. Moreover, Valella is actually a very active person, and after getting along for a long time, it is completely possible to guess her thoughts from her actions.

Sylvanas, on the other hand, was too deep in her heart, and had countless things that were never seen to others.

"Long time no see, Sylvanas."

Kael'thas replied with a smile.

"Your Highness, long time no see!!"

Lotherma greeted Kael'thas as well, and she even raised her voice with joy, but Kael'thas didn't notice it.

"At such a distance, you can find the orc just now."

Kael'thas continued to speak to Sylvanas.

"It's not that difficult, this guy is very murderous to His Highness."

Sylvanas' eyes flashed, and he replied:

"I'll deal with him before he acts."

The orcs are targeting Kael'thas?

Kael'thas felt strange, his original conjecture was based on the strength of the orc just now: even if he sneaked attack, the orc should not be able to kill him, and he cannot be considered an assassin.

**Not far from ten, the orcs are here to spy on intelligence.

However, based on his trust in Sylvanas, Kael'thas accepted her claims.

Seeing an opposing commander by his side, even if he is an intelligence spy, he should want to try a sneak attack and get a big credit.

"Thank you then."

Kael'thas thanked Sylvanas, then turned sideways and smiled:

"You're here earlier than I thought, but it's lunchtime, let's go back together."

"Yes."

Sylvanas walked up to him and followed him back to the inn.

"Your Highness, looking at the situation just now, it's not very safe here, so I'd better continue to defend you."

Sylvanas' nonchalant proposal.

"Huh? That's good."

Kael'thas agreed, and Sylvanas was going to follow him anyway, and the two didn't conflict.
