Chapter 0101: Lordaren's Princesses (1)

Looking at the hideous ghouls who were about to surround her, and the black-robed wizard behind the ghouls, Kalia sighed softly.

They had been hiding in this remote mountain area for a long time, and she had always thought that she might be able to stay here quietly all the time, and then slowly grow old until the day when she was completely liberated, which might be the best ending for her.

But who would have thought that these undead would still find her after all......

For Kalia Minahir, she is undoubtedly lucky.

Because she is now the last descendant of the living royal family of Lordan Lenminehir. If, she went out with the name Minethil under her signboard and shouted, with the words Minethir, most of the remaining armies of the former kingdom of Lordaeron and the knights of the Silver Hand would gather under her banner without hesitation, and at that time, it would not be impossible for her to be crowned the queen of Lordaeron.

However, Kalia Minahill is also unlucky.

Because, not long ago, she experienced the greatest family tragedy in the world - her most beloved brother, the brave, kind, righteous and responsible Arthas Mineshir, he was so depraved! Not only did he kill his father with his own hands, but he also wanted to harm himself as his own sister, and now, he has also destroyed the kingdom of Lordaeron, a kingdom of Lordaeron!

Now, on this land of the former kingdom of Lordaeron, all the undead disasters that are wreaking havoc and slaughtering people everywhere are the work of her good brother! He not only ruined her home with his own hands, but also his own country, ruining everything that was beautiful in front of him!

Kalia still vividly remembers the events of that day, everything that happened at that time, as if she still remembers it vividly......

She still remembered the cold words he said when she was rescued by the guards - kill her......

It was a sunny afternoon

......

Today is a good day for Alsace's triumphant return......

Princess Kalia was in the back garden of the palace in Lordaeron, and she was walking alone and bored.

On the street outside the palace, there was a faint burst of loud cheers from the citizens of the royal city, and at the same time, the special bell that had not been ringed for a long time in the royal city finally rang again.

She knew what the hell those people were cheering about outside—they were cheering for the triumphant return of their prince! Cheer for their Alsatian prince's victory in Northrend!

As for the melodious and loud bell, of course Kalia knew it, and she knew very well what that particular bell meant! They are usually only sounded during important state events – such as the wedding of the royal family, the birth of an heir, or...... The funeral of the king at his long sleep.

In Kalia's impression, she had only heard such a bell once.

Caria remembers very well, was it when she was just two years old, her younger brother, Arthas? The day Minecil was born. It was the same bell that rang all day, and its melodious sound echoed throughout the Tirisfara glade......

It was on that day that the royal family of Lordaeron welcomed the birth of one of their most desired and urgent male heirs! On that day, it seemed that the entire forest of Lordaeron was whispering the same name—Arthas.....

When Kalia remembered the birth of her brother, she couldn't help but smile knowingly.

Although she was the princess of the Kingdom of Lordaeron and the eldest daughter of King Terenus and Queen Leanne, due to the hereditary system's preference for male succession, the crown prince was always Alsace from the moment the prince was born, and Kalia was never the highest priority in the succession to the throne.

However, Kalia didn't care about this, she never wanted to be the queen of Lordaeron, she liked her Alsatian brother very much, and she preferred her present harmonious and happy royal family, without persecution, without dumping, and she was very, very content with what she had in front of her.

And today, when the melodious bell rang again, Kalia in the garden couldn't help but stop her steps and began to listen intently, as if she saw the citizens of Lordaeron on both sides of the street, waving petals of various colors, while shouting her brother's name.

As she listened, a faint smile began to appear on her face, and anyway, she liked the bell very much.

Actually, once, she Kalia was almost lucky enough to enjoy this bell ringing for herself!

She remembered that when she was about to turn sixteen, King Terenus had almost decided to marry Galia to a young man of the human nobility.

At first, this was a heartbroken experience for the young Caria, who had never seen the man named Presto, who was about to be mortgaged by her father as a bargaining chip, and it was then that she was disappointed in her father for the first time.

But then, when she meets Presto, she is fascinated by him, a handsome, polite, and talented young human aristocrat.

And, for some reason, every time Kalia gets close to him, she unconsciously feels a sense of love and convincing for him at first sight! It was a special kind of magic, and she almost thought that she was in love with him, for which she had secretly dropped a coin in the trevi fountain of Dalaran.

Unfortunately, the Presto, who was said to be related to Lord Perenolde, suddenly disappeared for some reason. This not only ruined Kalia's marriage, but also caused all her father's arrangements to come to naught. It was this plan that caused Kalia to become a big girl in her twenties and not be able to get married!

It is said that the identity of the nobleman named Presto is very doubtful, and there is a lot of gossip behind her, but her father never let her know about it, and she is not allowed to mention it again.

By now, Kalia no longer had the slightest affection for that Presto, but still had a faint hint of hatred.

If it weren't for him, he wouldn't be in Lordaeron's palace right now!

If it weren't for him, her father would not have dared to mention the marriage arrangements for her again, because this incident had become a nightmare for her father!

……

The bell still rang outside, and after listening for a while, Kalia began to wander around the garden. Although she also wanted to go out to welcome her brother's return, however, on this important occasion, she, the princess of Lordaeron, was not suitable to appear in the king's hall, and her identity could not casually go out into the street to crowd with the citizens, so she could only wait in the garden very awkwardly.

Anyway, she can only wait patiently for the time being, perhaps, at dinner in the evening, the family can listen to her brother talk about Northrend while eating? That must be interesting, right? It's been a long time since the family has eaten together, and Kalia is looking forward to it.

As she walked around a cluster of beautiful flowers, Kalia stopped, and she silently watched the colorful butterfly fluttering on the flowers. She was already in a trance. She thought to herself, how nice it would be if she could fly as carefree as this little creature. That way, she won't have to be locked up in this cage-like palace again, right?

Or perhaps, if she was a man, would she be able to go out into the colorful world like her brother Arthas?

I don't know what kind of scenery is in Northrend, in the north? Is it really cold there? Supposedly, there are huge rock giants there? And all kinds of weird and honest seal people? Moreover, it seems that the ancestors of mankind also came south from Northrend in the north to this continent at that time? In that case, it's a truly magical place.

If she had the chance, Kalia would have liked to see for herself, but ..... she could only think about these things.

While Kalia was thinking, the melodious bell that had been echoing in King Lordaeron finally stopped. She knew that it must be her brother Arthas, who had already entered the palace, and maybe, before long, she would soon be able to meet her heroic brother here!

Thinking of this, Kalia laughed, and she decided to use these flowers in front of her to weave a beautiful wreath for her brother, and later, when he came, she would hang it around his neck. This can be regarded as a gift from her sister to her brother's triumphant return!

That's right, it's a great idea, and it doesn't break the bank, but it also shows her deep affection for her brother! Then, without further ado, Kalia decided that she would hurry up and make the hero's wreath while they were in the King's Hall.

After thinking about it, Kalia stretched out her delicate white hand and began to pull and pick among the flowers, she needed to find a few long branches as the trunk of the wreath, and then carefully decorate the individual flowers one by one.

……

"Yikes!"

Suddenly, while Kalia was busy and happy, there was a sudden noise and screams outside the kingdom, and the clanging of weapons and shields violently, which frightened Kalia, who was just about to pick a beautiful rose, accidentally pricked deeply by the thorns on it, and then, on her white fingers, a little red blood immediately flowed out.

Turning around, Kalia was holding a wreath in one hand, still half-finished, as she put her injured right index finger in her mouth and sucked it. Then, with a puzzled expression, she looked in the direction outside, and after a while, the screams and the clashing of weapons seemed to get louder and louder, and the spread became more and more widespread, and after a while, almost half of the royal city of Lordaeron began to be noisy.

What's going on here?

Kalia was puzzled, shouldn't today be the day of triumph for her brother Arthas? Why does it seem like there is a sudden fight outside? If it was a city-wide party, the sound wouldn't be like this, would it?

Kalia stood still and listened for a while, she didn't know what was going on outside, and it was only when the sounds of the fighting began to slowly spread into the palace that she finally panicked.

But there seemed to be no one in the garden, and the guards were not allowed to enter the palace garden at will, and she had just repulsed her two maids, and now she didn't even have anyone to ask questions!

Bang!

After a loud noise, the front gate of the garden was slammed open by several guards covered in black and red blood, seeing this scene, Kalia screamed in fright, and took several steps back at once, almost collapsed to the ground, she was just an ordinary princess, where had she ever seen such a scene?

"Found it, the princess is here!"

A sharp-eyed palace guard screamed when he saw Kalia standing in the distance stunned with a garland of flowers.

Then more guards began to pour in, and then, a large man who looked at the color and decoration of his armor showed that he was the lieutenant of the guard, rushed to Kalia's side, and was so frightened that she almost collapsed on the ground because of her weak feet.

"Princess Kalia! Come on! Arthas, he just killed the king! And killed all the ministers! He, he's not the same prince anymore! He's a monster now! He's going to kill here, princess! We're covering you, run away! ”

The lieutenant ran up to Kalia in a few great strides, knelt down on one knee, and after a brief salute, stood up again, and spoke loudly in the most anxious tone.

"What?!" Kalia felt her head suddenly stunned, and she almost spun around.

How is this possible? Isn't today the day of the triumph of Alsace? Today should be a festive day, why did he kill his father? What reason did he have for doing so? Impossible! When pigs fly! How could her brother Arthas do such a thing?

Kalia was reluctant to believe this fact, she preferred to believe that it was the group of soldiers in front of her who were mutiniing, and they wanted to hold her hostage!

That's right, it must be like this! Her heroic brother of Alsace could not have done such a thing as killing a king, it was absolutely impossible!

"Your Royal Highness!!"

The lieutenant shouted again in a hurry, but their princess Kalia stood stunned, her frightened pale face changing color.

This can be regarded as making the adjutant anxious, but for a while, he didn't dare to be rude to the princess without authorization, so he could only stand in place and turn around in a hurry.

"Wow!!"

At this time, the two guards who were vigilantly guarding outside the garden seemed to be suddenly attacked by some huge force, and then, after a huge wound in their abdomen and armor was directly torn open, they flew up sideways with a scream, and crashed into the grass in the garden at once, rolled around twice, dragged their intestines on the ground, and after two convulsions, they stopped moving.

Then, a tall figure slowly appeared at the gate, it was Arthas, the original prince of the kingdom of Lordaeron! Next to him, there were also several hideous monsters, which were ghouls! And two unknown big spiders!

"You stop them for me!" The adjutant groaned in his heart, and after giving a fierce order to several guards, he turned around again.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, offended!" After speaking, without waiting for the other party to react, he leaned over directly, carried Kalia on his strong shoulder, and then ran directly towards the back door of the garden.

A few guards covered the lieutenant and the princess as they ran backwards, while the others turned silently, and after a few glances at each other, they raised the elite palace-standard steel swords in their hands, which were still bloodied.

"Long live Lordaeron!!"

The guards raised their weapons and shouted, then pulled down their armor and charged frantically at Arthas and the monsters who were about to enter the garden gate......

Alsace.....

Kalia, who was carried by the lieutenant of the guard, looked at the familiar and unfamiliar figure that appeared at the garden gate with tears in her eyes.

It was her brother Arthas, however, it didn't seem to be ......, his beautiful long blond hair had turned pale, his charming and handsome face had turned purple, and there was a hint of a wicked smile on his lips.....

Drops of bright red blood were sliding down his dark and hideous sword.....

He really killed his father......

He's really not her brother anymore......

Why is this happening......

The half-finished wreath of heroes finally slipped silently from Kalia's left hand, and at the same time, along with her crystal tears, fell to the ground.....

In the distance, at the garden gate, the figure that seemed a little confused under her own tears began to become stranger and stranger in Kalia's mind...... It's getting scary and terrifying......

"Humph! Catch up with them! Kill her! ”

It was the last sound Kalia heard after being carried out of the door by the guards.

It was this familiar voice that shattered the last trace of luck in her heart, and in this moment, her heart was broken into countless pieces......

In the end, how exactly Kalia managed to escape from Lordaeron's Royal City, she didn't know, and she didn't want to know! All she knew was that when she came back to her senses, she had appeared in a remote cabin north of Barnier's farm.

However, she was not safe at the time. Because, before they had time to rest, she vaguely heard the guards say that more undead were starting to gather outside!

Then, after the last thing Kalia remembered was that she had been stuffed into a large wooden cabinet by the lieutenant, and pushed under the bed to cover it with some rags, the men rushed out with a loud cry, and their shouts of murder grew farther and farther away......

She hadn't seen them since that day, she didn't even know who they were or what their names were, and the last time she saw them through the cracks in the wooden cabinet, there were only a few blood-stained armor and fearless backs......

Kalia didn't know exactly how long she had been in the wooden cupboard, maybe a day, maybe two days......

She curled up in it without saying a word, neither afraid nor thinking of going out on her own, she lay quietly in it, letting the never-ending water permeate her cheeks and soak her shoulders......

Until....on that drizzling afternoon, a strange undead found her from here and gently carried her out of the wooden cupboard. He said that his name was - Fao, Alonsos Fao......

The first update

It seems that no one guessed yesterday......
