Today, the atmosphere in the Great Hall of Hogwarts is a little more solemn......

Because, unlike Hermione, the teachers and students here saw some terrible scenes and some terrible changes in each other from another screen, that is, the screen of another warrior, Harry Potter!

And now, those warships have left Northrend, the northern continent of the world of Azeroth, and are on their way back to Lordaeron, and Hermione, who is in the royal city of Lordaeron at this time, including the others, has no idea about the changes in things, and is even faintly excited waiting for the return of the princes and warriors of Arthas, who have won a great victory for the demons of the Northern Expedition?

There is no doubt that the teachers and students are sweating for Hermione and the Lordaeron Kingdom, but there is no way, no matter how loud they shout, even if they want to remind them, the other party will definitely not be able to hear and see, so at this time, the teachers and students can only worry about their hearts, silently watching the movie here in the auditorium, and closely following the development and changes of things.

"Ahem!"

"Well, Professor Annie, are you really sure that the changes in Harry won't have any effect on him in the future? Why don't I feel a little relieved when I look at it......"

"You know, soul and character can really affect a person, so I'm really worried."

Looking at the picture of Harry, who was shrouded in black robes and couldn't even see his face, and then looked at the Prince of Arthas, and looked at the Lordaeron army that returned with the fleet, the mercenaries, and the extra troops, and I don't know why, Dumbledore always had a feeling of fear, and then he had to ask again.

You know, if the things he feared most about Dumbledore did happen, it would be a big deal! So, he couldn't worry, he couldn't ask more, because it was really too important to him Dumbledore, to their wizarding world, and even to Harry himself.

“……”

(lll￢ω￢)

"I mean, Dumbledore, weird old man, are you bothered?"

s (???? ˇεˇ????) ゞ

"It's been more than ten days since they defeated that demon Marganis and boarded the ship to return to Lordaeron, and you've almost had to ask twice a day, adding up to almost thirty times, how many more times do you have to ask?!"

?? (ヽ`д′)╭??

Impatient and extremely irritable, ignoring the curious glances of the professors around her and the students in front of her, little Anne once again pointed to the nose of some bad old man and asked.

Because, she really doesn't want to answer that question anymore, no matter how much she assures it, no matter how much she tries to persuade the other party to rest assured, it's useless! The next day, some bad old man, who seemed to have Alzheimer's, would surely come up to her again nervously and repeat the questions as he did now, and annoy her.

She didn't understand, what she had promised, what did this bad old man have to worry about?

Can't you believe in her, the omnipotent Professor Anne?

Anyway, she guaranteed that there would be no problems with the little scarred eyes, and in case something really went wrong, she wouldn't be afraid, and she would burn it down at that time, and give him Dumbledore again and then 'roll back' a new little scar head, so as to ensure that the other party was chubby, and there would be no problems at all!

（…… ）

(●￣(??) ￣●)

"Isn't that a little reassuring to me......"

Indeed, Dumbledore must not have been reassured by the bad behaviour and consistent behaviour of a little girl who was unreliable and liked to mess around.

What's more, that kind of thing is still in the context of Harry's 'physical and mental health'?

"Are you really sure, though, Professor Anne? You promise? ”

You know, Harry is very, very important to him Dumbledore, he actually prefers that something happens to Miss Granger, and he would rather have Harry and Granger's current situation reversed, rather than have any problems or accidents with Harry, and he has told each other many times about this.

"Here we go again......"

（?? ╭╮?? ）

"Dumbledore, you've asked so many times, what else do you want? Now the man promises you again: if the scar is ...... If something goes wrong with that Harry Potter, I'll have my bear burned alive and your Merlin beaten to death!! ”

o(▼ヘ▼#)o

I couldn't help it, I didn't want an old fly to 'buzz' in my ear all day long, so I had to get angry and swear again.

（…… ）

??????????????

"Uh......"

Well, here it is again......

There was no way, seeing that the other party assured himself again, seeing that the other party didn't even take his oath seriously, and always took out her pet bear that was not afraid of fire and Merlin, who had been dead for an unknown number of years, for fun, there was no way, Dumbledore had to sigh, turned around helplessly again, and began to continue to watch the screen attentively.

However, his gaze was more than staring at Miss Granger's screen, and from time to time he glanced apprehensively at Harry's screen, towards the cabin where there was nothing to see at all.

……

Not long after, after a bad old man named Dumbledore had just finished asking and settling down for ten minutes, another seventh-year girl from Beauxbatons School of Witchcraft and Wizardry named Fleur Delacour sneaked around the teacher's seat and approached this way.

“……”

(lll￢ω￢)

'Hello! ’

'Professor Annie, I've been looking closely lately, and I've noticed that Harry has been like that for the past few days, and it seems that he is not the same as before, including some habits......

Are you sure he's really okay? ’

For Fleur, who came to Hogwarts to participate in the Triwizard Tournament and was lucky enough to experience the so-called 'Lordaeron' fantasy and gained a lot of money, including accidentally meeting a junior boyfriend, now she is really worried about the little boyfriend on the screen who is gloomy all day and has done that kind of terrible thing.

Anyway, apart from Dumbledore, in the entire Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, in this castle, she Fleur is definitely the one who worries about each other the most! After all, no matter how she says, when she thinks that the other party has become like that because of herself, she will always have a faint joy in her heart.

“……”

(???? ˇ?? ˇ????)

Little Anne, however, was in no hurry to speak, for she was trying to suppress her anger, lest she turn around and burn the long beard of a bad old man to vent her anger in a state of extreme anger and annoyance.

‘？？ ’

'Hello, Professor Anne? Are you listening to what I just said? ’

Seeing that the other party didn't speak, Fleur couldn't help but get closer, and just half-squatted next to the other party's seat, while supporting the long table of the professor's chair with one hand, while looking at the other party's little face worriedly, she almost reached over and shook it in front of the other party.

“……”

(￢д￢。 )

"This classmate, have you seen people's expressions?"

(??????????)

'Huh? ’

'Look, see ......'

'What?! ’

'Is it difficult, is it ...... Professor Annie, what do you mean: could something really happen to Harry? That would affect him?! ’

Seeing Professor Anne's obviously unhappy and faintly strange face, Fleur Delacour, who realized that something was wrong, couldn't help but exclaim, and a bad old man who had been eavesdropping on the side couldn't help but glance sideways and start eavesdropping with his ears pricked up.

“……”

(lll￢ω￢)

"It's not! What people mean is: People are in a bad mood right now, if you bother again...... The man promised that even if that little four-eyed person would not have had an accident, they would definitely let him have an accident!! ”

(???????? `??)

After gritting her teeth, little Anne first glared at the other party fiercely, and then showed a penetrating bright smile to a bad old man with a thief and a thief next to her, which frightened a certain Mr. Headmaster to quickly turn his head and continue to pretend to be serious to look at the two screens above the auditorium.

'Sorry, sorry! ’

'I-I'll go back ......

It was not the first time she had asked, and she still hadn't received any definite answer, so she smiled and apologized, hugged her head and left, not daring to stay next to Professor Anne, whose aura was becoming more and more terrifying.

"Really!"

s(?? ｀ヘ????; )ゞ

Finally, after some threats to get rid of the annoying big-ass sister, little Anne glanced angrily at the seats of the Slytherin students in the Great Hall.

There, the Slytherin students, such as Draco Malfoy, Vincent Crabbe, Gregory Goyle, and Pansy Parkinson, were defiantly holding up signs in their hands to some of the Gryffindor students, with magical characters that read: 'A congratulatory message from the Slytherin students celebrating Mr. Potter of Gryffindor for joining the Dark Wizards'?

Then, of course, not long after they raised the hate-appealing sign, the Gryffindor students threw angry glances and curses or all sorts of cacophony of rebuttals at them.

“……”

（?????????? ）

"I know it's noisy, I don't know, I really think they guessed right!"

?? (*?????? *)??:.??

Stretching her waist, little Anne stopped paying attention to the men, and began to stretch her trousers legs out of the long table in the professorship, and then lay down in her seat so gracefully, thinking about her little things as she watched.

Although she, Professor Anne, has been very idle lately, except for eating, drinking, sleeping, and 'chasing dramas', she has never mentioned starting classes and continuing to teach magic or spells to students, but no matter how leisurely she is, she doesn't want anyone to disturb her until the mystery is revealed!

'Attention ......'

'Students, the noon break is almost over, so ...... Everyone stands up and goes back to get ready, it's almost time for you to go to the afternoon class! ’

Looking at the time on his pocket watch, and at the bright sunlight outside the windows on either side of the Great Hall, Dumbledore finally stood up, once again exercising his authority as Headmaster and began to chase people away.

Because, it's not that part yet, and there is still half a day before Harry and the Prince of Arthas dock their sailboat, so why don't the students go back to their half-afternoon lessons, and then come back in the evening after they have eaten and drunk and washed up?

'And! ’

'Slytherin students, I don't want to see any more objects or words in the castle that attack a warrior or the students of another house! If you don't want to incur a penalty of more than 50 points and a week's imprisonment for your college? ’

After glaring at the Slytherin students with a majestic and warning gaze, and frightened them into putting away the signs that would attract the hostility of the Gryffindor students and the disgust of his Headmaster Dumbledore, a certain headmaster waved at them in frustration, signaling the prefects to hurry up and lead the students of their respective houses to get out, and stop staying in the Great Hall and making him look at the eyes in distraction.

Because, Dumbledore had already sensed that the 'twilight of Lordaeron' was probably coming soon, and neither Hermione nor Harry would be able to change it, and even those two were now swept up in it, deeply involved without knowing it......

So

Headmaster Dumbledore felt that with the 24th of June approaching, the second event of the Triwizard Tournament would be coming to an end soon, and it would be a pity that the Great Hall of their Hogwarts Castle would no longer be as lively and popular with teachers and students as it is now.

But......

Alas!

Turning his head to look at some little girl who was hanging high on his business, Dumbledore could only sigh in his heart.

If he didn't worry about Harry himself, it would certainly be impossible! However, when a certain little girl who has the ability to interfere is unwilling to intervene or reveal it in advance, what can he, the principal, who has never even figured out what kind of magic the other party is using, on those two big screens?

————————————

Boom~! Boom~!

The great bronze bell of the royal city of Lordaeron rang softly twice......

Now the people of Lordaeron know:

Hermione Granger, a fourteen-year-old witch from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, first joined the plague investigation team of the Prince of Arthas, participated in the attack and defense of Andorhar, then defended the lives and property of tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Daron County, defeated the Dreadlord and his army of the undead at the Cowlin junction and won the victory, and then participated in Stratholme's 'Great Rescue' operation, and finally used a strategy to summon the Fire Demon to completely burn Kelldaron, and destroyed the psychic academy located under the Barov family castle in one fell swoop. Annihilated the culprit of the plague and destroyed the evil Cult of the Damned......

Yes,

In view of the great contribution of the witch Hermione Granger to the kingdom of Lordaeron, and on the recommendation of Uther Lightbringer, the leader of the Knights of the Silver Hand, and countless military elites and nobles of the East, King Terenus Minechil II of Lordaeron summoned the legendary little witch after the incident at Lake Daron Mill, and finally made up his mind a few days earlier after learning about his son Arthas, whom the Courier had brought back from Northrend. A grand ceremony was held and the little witch Hermione Granger was canonized as the countess of Keldaron, and the fief was ......

It is the area of Keldaron Island and Daron Mill Lake!!

That's right, it was completely burned not long ago, and it is still a ruin and lava hell, clean above, without any plague and undead, but also without any living people or animals, only those terrible and numerous new fire elements, God knows which year in the future will gradually extinguish and return to normal and can live and grow plants normally.

For this decision, although Uther and others have also questioned it......

However, King Terenus had his own considerations, and at the same time, in order to weigh and dispel the objections of some of the traditional nobles of the West in Lordaerone, he could just throw the title of a nominal countess and a less important, and never even wanted to ask for an ownerless fief to the other party.

After all

Although Keldaron can no longer be the master, however, the waters of Lake Daron Mill are very large, and the products are not abundant, and in addition, the current Keldaron Island may be able to produce precious fire element crystal nuclei and other specialties in the future?

Therefore, when a certain little witch herself did not give an opinion, Uther and the others did not dare to say anything more in the end...... Furthermore, it was impossible for him to contribute his own territory or to have the king give up important areas such as Hills, Southsea Town, or Tarummere, so this was the end of the matter.

Perhaps, in a sense, King Terenus was indeed a little too stingy and cunning?

However, now is a special period, and the Prince of Arthas is about to return in triumph, so no one pays attention to those things anymore, not even Hermione, who is the person concerned, because, whether others believe it or not, she really didn't care about that kind of thing at all!

If she had a choice, she really didn't want to spend a moment in this dangerous and crazy world, she just wanted to go back to Hogwarts Castle and sleep well in her own soft bed in the school's common room!

Because, in Hogwarts, she never had to jump up in the middle of the night to fight the evil undead to the death, or worry about whether she would be touched by a ghoul in her sleep and bite off her head, arms and thighs or something.

Boom~! Boom~!

The huge bronze bell of the royal city of Lordaeron rang softly twice, and the sound was still clear even here......

Hermione didn't know what that meant, but it didn't matter, because she never cared about the little things, and she was enjoying this rare period of peaceful court life without fighting.

"Lordaeron is so big, it looks so pretty......"

"Hah!"

"It's nice not to have to fight the undead all day, but the people here in Lordaeron don't really have any sense of crisis, as if the battle in the Plaguelands didn't affect them at all, and it didn't affect their lives at all?"

On the terrace at the top of this tower in the palace castle of the royal city of Lordaeron, looking at the whole huge and bustling Lordaeron, looking at the passers-by and the people laughing in the city gardens below, the new countess who had been living in the palace, the witch Hermione sighed with some emotion.

She didn't know if the people of Lordaeron were good like that......

But all she knew was that in the east, in the current West and East Plague Lands, the people were still in dire straits, still tormented by the undead and terrible plagues, the earth was withering, the deep forests and the people were gradually losing their green, and the army was desperately resisting and trying to stop the spread of the undead plague......

Even if it was herself, not long ago, she and Davi Paladin and Captain Redpass had infiltrated the territory of the Barov family in Kelldaron to destroy the Cult of the Damned God and the Psychic Academy, and then fought the scattered undead near Daron County for several days...... But now, here in Lordaeron's Royal City, she just felt as if nothing had happened?

"I wish there were no evil things like the undead and the plague......"

Looking at hermione, although she had been in Lordanren for many days, Hermione, who had seen these beautiful scenes for the first time in this world, couldn't help but sigh.

"Dear Countess......"

"Actually, the royal city of Lordaeron is not as big as Stratholme, and it can only be regarded as the second largest city in the kingdom of Lordaeron at most?"

At this time, when Hermione sighed, a beautiful blonde woman in a noble silk dress quietly walked to Hermione's side without knowing when, first holding the railing of the terrace with her and overlooking the huge city of Lordaeron, before teasingly calling the other party's new title and adding:

"As my father told me before, although the royal city of Lordaeron is the royal capital, it is not as large as the most important trading city in terms of size and population, and it is not as good as Stratholme, the 'pearl of the north' occupied by the undead."

"You haven't heard of it, have you?"

"A while ago, when I heard that Lord Uther had come back to report on the situation in Stratholme, my father was so angry that he smashed many cups......"

After saying that, the elder sister of the Prince of Arthas, the eldest daughter of King Terenas Minehir, and the elder sister of the Arsace who was a few years older than Arthas, Julia Minehir, the princess of the Kingdom of Lordaeron and the second in line to the throne, sighed faintly.

Due to the hereditary system of the Lordaeron Kingdom, which prioritizes men and then goes to the elders, the identity of Galia Minahir has always been awkward, and she has never been specially cultivated, and the one who has the identity of the crown prince has always been Arthas, and Galia herself has never had the highest priority to inherit the throne!

However, fortunately, she never cared about that, and she had a good relationship with Arthas, so she had been able to maintain their still harmonious royal family, and she had lived in the palace all these years, silently playing the inconspicuous role of the princess of her kingdom, which was rarely known to anyone other than Lordaeron.

And in the past few days, when Hermione was invited to Lordaeron and made a countess for her merits, she was finally able to meet a legendary heroine, and soon became a good sister to the other party!

Even, for the past few days, the two of them have lived together, even if the barons' butlers and maids of the court have prepared special rooms for each other.

"You mean that Stratholme......"

Ay......

Hearing that word that made people can't help but feel sad and tremble, Hermione's eyelids couldn't help but droop slightly, and she sighed faintly.

Stratholme's situation was so miserable that he didn't seem to feel much at the time, probably because of his rush to fight for his life, but afterwards, in the dead of night, whenever she dreamed of the hundreds of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people who had sunk in that huge city, who had been transformed into zombies by the plague, or who had wailed under the attack of zombies and were ruthlessly abandoned by the paladins, Hermione would always wake up and never fall asleep again......

Because, she also participated in the affairs of Stratholme, but she was really powerless at that time, even if she saw those innocent children, old people, women and citizens in the windows of the houses throwing anticipation and help for her, she could only bear to pretend not to see it...... Because, the paladins had no way to deal with the plague, and neither did she herself.

"Are you okay?"

"I know I shouldn't ask, but is Hermione, Stratholme's situation really as serious as Lord Uther said when he came back to report?"

The innocent Princess Caria Minahir asked with some trepidation.

She couldn't believe that a city the size of Stratholme, with a population larger than the population of the royal city of Lordaeron, had really all been turned into undead because of that terrible plague. That kind of terrible thing, but she never dared to imagine, and she couldn't imagine what kind of tragic picture it was.

“……”

"Sister Galia, things are only going to get worse in Stratholme than you think...... But let's stop talking about those things now, okay? ”

"I managed to rest for a few days, and I really don't want to remember those horrible things anymore, and I don't want to talk about the undead anymore......"

Hermione wasn't going to recall or discuss the tragic stories, it was tragic and inhumane, especially for her!

You know, she's really just a fourteen-year-old fourth-year Hogwarts student, and although she has no choice but to continue struggling in this world, she only plans to stay here for a while in this Lordaeron royal city, far away from the war, and wait until Harry and the others return?

Fortunately, the messengers sent by the king for the second time to urge the Prince of Arthas to withdraw their troops brought back the good news that the Prince of Arthas and Harry had found a magical weapon in the icy world of Northrend and used it to kill the Dreadlord Marganis!

And according to the information, Triumph's fleet will land from the Whispering Coast by tonight at the latest, and she will be apparitioned to go to Solridon Farm to wait for Harry and the Prince of Arthas to return, and she can't wait for that.

"Well, depending on you, then I won't talk about that......"

Nodding, seeing the other party's face suddenly became depressed and ugly, after thinking about it, Jialia Minehir, who knew that the other party didn't want to mention those things, didn't dare to be too persecutive, so she turned to something more relaxed and interesting.

"Seriously, Hermione, I really envy you."

"You're only fourteen years old this year, so young you're already a great hero who has traveled to many places, destroyed countless undead, saved countless people, and destroyed the Psychic Academy and the Cursed God Cult! Like me, I don't know anything, and the farthest I've ever been is Dalaran......"

Galia Minahir sighed softly, and then she remembered the Dalaran she had been to and the copper coin she had lost in the supposedly good wishing fountain...... It's a pity that so much time has passed now, her original engagement has long since vanished as a rumor, and the handsome Master Pretos is no longer to be found.

Moreover, she had vaguely heard some rumors that were even worse for that adult, but she had never been willing to believe it.

“……”

"Sister Jialia, let me tell you what is in my heart, in fact, ......"

"I'd rather not be a hero, and I'm really not a hero, it's all just a coincidence...... You may not believe it now, but we were actually thrown to your kingdom of Lordaeron by one of our hateful professors to practice, and I have wanted to go back for a long time, since the first day I arrived on this continent! ”

"I don't want to be a countess, and I don't want to be a hero......"

"This world is so cruel, before I came to this city, I could see dead people almost every moment, fight the undead every day, and see everything that was terrible and bloody!"

"If I had a choice, I just want to go back now, to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, to continue my classes with my classmates, with Harry, with Ron, and never to come to such a horrible place again!"

"What I said is true! I can swear to God or Merlin!! ”

This is indeed Hermione's true words, after experiencing the things of Krum and Fleur, after seeing the changes in Harry, after experiencing Stratholme and everything, she realized that the stories of Dragon Quest or heroes in fairy tales are all lies, all the cruelest things!

So, she's really a little tired, and she really wants to go back if she can...... Perhaps, when Harry and the Prince of Arthas have returned in triumph, she will find time to consult with Harry to see if there is any way to go back?

"God? Who is he? ”

Galia Minahir was a little curious.

"O God, He is the god that many of us on earth believe in, and He is omnipotent!"

As long as she didn't remember those cruel things, Hermione knew everything and didn't even think about hiding it or anything else.

'Merlin? Who is He? Is He also a powerful deity? ’

"Nope! Merlin is not a god, he is a wizard, and he is said to be the greatest wizard of all time, but he has been dead for many years......"

‘……’

"What about Hogwarts?"

"Is that a city like Dalaran, a place where you can learn magic?"

For Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, which the other party has said more than once, Caria Minecil is very fascinated.

Because she thought it must be a magical place, or she wouldn't have taught Hermione and Harry, the wizard who followed her brother to Northrend and got revenge. It's a pity that that place is said to be far, far away from Lordaeron, and even the Countess Hermione in front of her doesn't know how to go back, even if she is curious, she will definitely not be able to follow the other party to see.

"It's not a city!"

"Hogwarts is really just a castle and a school of witchcraft and wizardry, so it must not be as big as Dalaran, right?"

Dalaran is a magical kingdom with a large population, so Hermione certainly wouldn't be arrogant enough to think that Hogwarts could compare to Dalaran.

"Sister Jialia, I've never been to Dalaran, I don't know what Dalaran is like, so I don't know how to compare......"

Hermione sighed, she had long wanted to go to Dalaran to learn and see the magic of the world of Azeroth, but now that she had gone through so many things and sufferings, she had long since lost so much ambition and desire to learn.

She just wants to go back now, get a good night's sleep in school for a few days, and maybe even try to see what it's like to skip class and be a carefree errand student if she can?

'It's easy! ’

'If you want to go to Dalaran, you can come with me today!' ’

Suddenly, just as the two were about to continue chatting about something, a familiar voice sounded, which directly startled Hermione and Jialia, who were silently propped up in front of the balcony railing.

"Ahh

"Sister Gianna?!"

As soon as they turned their heads, they saw that the person who came was the blue-robed mage that both of them were familiar with, and both Hermione and Princess Carlia exclaimed.

"Great!"

"I heard the butler say you were coming today, but I couldn't wait for you, and thought you wouldn't be here today, my dear Princess Proudmoor?"

This was Jialia's teasing, and then she greeted her directly and happily and gave each other a big hug directly! Obviously, the two of them have known each other for a long time and seem to have a good relationship.

“！！”

"Are you really a princess?!"

Hermione exclaimed again, because she heard Princess Galia's name, and then couldn't help but be a little incredulous, because, it seemed that no one had really talked about this matter to her, and she had always thought that the other party was just a powerful mage in Dalaran.

"Why, you only know now? Dear Earl Granger? ”

After letting go of Galia, Gianna stepped forward and stood in front of Hermione, who had wide-eyed eyes, looking at the other's stunned expression and teasing.

When she came, she heard the news, and this little sister in front of her had done another earth-shattering thing, completely destroying the source of the plague, destroying the Cursed God Cult and the Psychic Academy, and also receiving the canonization of King Terenus Minehir for this, but she was a little ashamed of herself.

"Ah......h

Hearing the other party's ridicule, Hermione suddenly seemed a little overwhelmed, and she didn't even know where to put her hand.

"Well, Hermione, I'd actually prefer you to call me the way you used to, we're friends, we're sisters, aren't we?"

Shaking her head, Gianna stepped forward and hugged each other hard, giving them a friendly and intimate embrace.

To be honest, she was also faintly jealous of the Hermione sister in front of her, because the other party's age and ability were obviously younger than herself, but the other party had done far more than herself, and even when she talked to her father in Kul Tiras, her admiral father had been amazed for a long time.

"Actually......"

"Galia and Hermione, I'm here today to say goodbye to you, I'm going back to Dalaran soon, and then, my fleet is about to depart, and I don't know when I'll see you in the future, so ......"

Before she finished speaking, Gianna couldn't continue, because this kind of goodbye scene really made her feel a little sad.

"Hermione!"

"Do you want me to go to Dalaran and have a look? Then, maybe you can come with me to Kalimdor? Our fleet will soon depart, probably tomorrow morning, and if you don't come with me to Dalaran today, I'm afraid we'll never get a chance again. ”

"The prophet said that the danger is getting closer and closer to this continent, and I must leave early!"

After explaining her intentions, Gianna sent another invitation to Hermione, wanting to invite the other party to go to Dalaran with her, and also invited the other party to go to Kalimdor with her, directly away from this land that is said to be about to usher in death and destruction.

"Huh?!"

"Sister Gianna, do you really believe in that prophet?"

Hearing the other man's words, Hermione was frightened again.

"But I always thought the prophet was weird, and so was the little dwarf girl he knew, and she was just as weird...... I always don't feel like they're good people! ”

"Don't let them fool you!!"

Yes, Hermione didn't believe the prophet named Medivan, because during the time she spent in Lordaeron's palace in the past few days, she had read a lot of history and records about the world of Azeroth, and she also knew what kind of person that Medivan was, so, subconsciously, she directly thought that the guy had bad intentions, just like the other party had done before, and was secretly recorded in those documents?

"No ......"

"Hermione, my feelings tell me he's not lying! So, listen to my advice, come with me to Kalimdor, you are not from the kingdom of Lordaeron, you have done enough for them, Krum and Fleur have died, you are now a great hero, leave this world of doomed death. ”

Although she was very embarrassed to see the expression of Jialia next to her, Gianna didn't care so much, so she just opened her mouth and tried to persuade her.

She liked this Hermione sister very much, and the other party's ability was also very strong, and her luck and actions were even more unexpected, so if the other party was willing to leave with her, she would definitely be more confident.

"But ......"

"Sister Gianna, we just destroyed Kelldaron and the Psychic Academy, and now the problem of the plague will soon be solved, as long as we manage to eliminate the remaining undead, Lordaeron will be victorious!"

Hermione shook her head with a smile, her opinion was the opposite of Gianna's sister, she felt that although the kingdom of Lordaeron had suffered heavy losses now, but, in a sense, their efforts had finally stabilized the situation, although the situation was still not optimistic, but as long as they waited for the prince of Arthas to return triumphantly, and then led the troops to continue eastward, at most, it was just a little more time to consume and stabilize the defense line at the Cowlin junction, they would always be victorious!

Of course, this was not hers, but she had heard from Lord Uther when they consulted with King Terenus.

‘……’

'There are hundreds of thousands of undead in the Stratholme region alone, plus the remnants of the northern and western plaguelands of the Eastern Plaguelands, that number may not be able to withstand you. ’

"But!"

"King Terenus has already said that he is urgently recruiting and training troops! And Dalaran is also ready to send more mages to help......"

"They have also sent emissaries to Eagle's Nest Mountain, Ironforge Fortress, and Stormwind City, and those undead will certainly not be more difficult to deal with than the previous orcs!"

'Hermione ......'

I'm afraid it's not as simple as you think, because I also sense that a great horror is coming and we have to make a choice! ’

"But ......"

‘……’

Seeing Gianna and Hermione arguing word by word, although Jialia Minecil who was standing on the side didn't understand very well, she was really envious and didn't know what to say.

Because, although her two friends are younger than herself, and their identities are not as good as herself, the other party is far superior to her, the princess of Lordaeron, whether it is ability or anything else! In comparison, it seems that she herself really has no merit at all except for Minahir's surname and the identity of a princess?

"I'm not leaving, but, Sister Gianna, aren't you really waiting for Prince Arthas to come back?"

"The messenger said that they should arrive at Whispering Bay by tonight at the latest, and that they would be back here in Lordaeron in a few days, and they had succeeded in their revenge and slew the terrible demon Malganis with their own hands!"

"Sister Gianna, don't you want to go see the Prince of Arthas?!"

Hermione knew that Sister Gianna was the lover of Prince Arthas, and although there was some trouble when she was in Stratholme, she felt that if Sister Gianna could welcome the other party's return at this time, it would not be impossible for the two to reconcile?

Although it now seemed that the terrible order of the Prince of Arthas was indeed better than it was now, Hermione did not feel that there was anything wrong with Sister Gianna's refusal to stand with her.

“……”

"No! After I have returned to Dalaran in a moment, packed up some things, and said goodbye to Mentor Antonidas, I will rush back to Kultiras to lead my people and fleet to Kalimdor, for the monsoon wind has begun to blow to-day, and if I don't move faster, it will be dangerous to cross the Endless Sea! ”

Kurtiras's fleet is powered by the sea breeze and sails, not like some of Quel'Thalas's magical ships, so if Gianna decides to go to Kalimdor, she will have to move quickly, otherwise missing the monsoon will be fatal to the fleet at sea!

Although their fleet was large, almost half of the fleet of Kul Tiras, they also had a lot of men, and the more people there were, the less time they could have to supply and keep sailing, and she didn't want her people to starve to death in the middle of the sea instead of dying from the plague of the dead.

"But ......"

Hermione wanted to say something, but in the end, she opened her mouth but didn't say anything, just turned around silently, and with the other party, the three of them overlooked the magnificent and prosperous view of Lordaeron's royal city, while cherishing the last time they spent together.

'Hermione ......'

After looking at the scenery for a while, Gianna suddenly spoke up and turned around, and looked at the little witch beside her with some words, not knowing whether to say some of her words.

"What's wrong?"

‘？？ ’

Hermione and Galia, who didn't know what else they wanted to say, looked at each other in unison.

"Forget it!"

Shaking her head, Gianna wanted to tell the other party something about her feelings......

Because, she always felt that the northern expedition of Alsace was too smooth, and they were still familiar with the situation in Northrend, and she knew what kind of place it was, so she didn't believe in the fact that Alsace had won the final victory with just over 2,000 people! However, now that the other party has returned triumphantly, she can't figure out why, so she can't say anything more, so she has to hide the doubts and uneasiness in her heart for the time being.

"I can't teach you magic......"

"Here you go! This is my notebook when I was studying in Dalaran, there are a lot of spells and explanations in it, although it is just the most ordinary magic notebook, not as powerful as the one your teacher gave you, but, I am afraid this is the best gift I can give you, I hope you don't dislike it? ”

Regardless of whether the other party was willing to accept it or not, Gianna directly and brutally stuffed the thick book that she took out of the rune bag into the other party's arms.

‘……’

'Gianna, can you join us for lunch before leaving?' I can have the maids feast in that hanging garden, what do you think? ’

Knowing that her best friend was here to say goodbye, after knowing that the other party would soon leave Lordaeron, leave Dalaran and go to the unknown western continent, Galia Minahir pleaded with expectant eyes.

Maybe they won't be able to see each other for a long time, but if she could, she would like to be able to treat each other well, right in the same place they used to love!

"Absolutely!"

‘！！ ’

'That's great! I'm going to tell them to get ready now!! ’

With that, a look of surprise on her face, Caria Minerhil hurriedly carried the hem of her beautiful long dress, and hurried down the spiral staircase of the castle on this terrace......
