Chapter 13: Parting on the Shore
The sky returned to calm, and the warm sun shone on the calm sea. On the coast, the black-pressed Naga army was surrounded by huge galleons ready to go. On the other side of the dockyard, all kinds of buildings are in tatters, because they have just experienced a battle.
"Lord Illidan, look at these ships, are you still satisfied, in order to ensure safety, I have also prepared a frigate. Fasqi said as he walked to the shore with Illidan.
"Very good! Dear lady, you are indeed the first celebrity around the Queen, your mind is as open as the sea, and you are extremely thoughtful. β
"Thank you for your compliment. Now that the wind and waves are calm, it is a good time to go to sea, our plan cannot be delayed, I don't know what the adults think?"
"Everything is as you wish, the watchmen in the back are still chasing me, and they have not given up the idea of taking me back to prison. β
"I've heard that the High Priest, now the Night Elf leader, pardoned you personally, so why are the Watchers still arresting? β
"Did you know that the Night Elves' current form of government is one of separate justice and politics, and the prisoners can only be pardoned unless decided by the council, and then with the consent of the Supreme Leader of the Judiciary, Mavi, the Supreme Leader of the Watchmen, and Tyrande ...... She let me out without discussion in the council, let alone Mavi's consent. β
Hearing Tyrande, Fasqi looked unhappy, and said, "Then this Mavi is determined to arrest you back, but as long as she leaves by boat and leaves the Night Elves' sphere of influence, she should also die." β
"I hope so. β
The Naga soldiers lined up in two lines on the side of a large ship to welcome Illidan and Fasqi aboard.
"Stop! Illidan, don't run away!"
A shout came from the jungle by the dock.
Hearing this, Illidan's hair stood on end, and he turned around. Fasqi also gritted his teeth in hatred.
A petite figure rushed out of the woods with a detachment.
"Mavi......" Illidan said tremblingly.
Memories of prison come back to mind.
After feeling the endless loneliness and helplessness, there was movement outside the cell, and he hurried to the cell door.
"Illidan, how is it, life is fine after getting rid of torture. β
"Mavi, where have you been all this time, I'm going crazy in this quiet place. Now I understand that loneliness is the worst enemy, and I would rather be tortured every day than continue to live a boring life. β
"Alas, I'm lonely. β
"I heard you right, you're free, and now you're in power, you have whatever you want, talk to me about loneliness......"
"You know what? Garrod and I were orphans from childhood, and I took care of him like a mother and watched him grow up. Since there is no back~, she and I need to put in more than ordinary efforts to reap the rewards. During the war with the Burning Legion, I almost took the position of High Priest, but Garrod did take the position of leader of the army. After the end of the war, we who could have seized the leadership of the Night Elves were wiped out by Garrod's stupidity. β
"Your ambition is really not small, but luckily Tyrande is back. β
"If Tyrande's return brought me loss, then Garrod's retreat brought me despair. β
"How is it possible that Garrod will retire, how many people dream of being able to sit in the position of Lord of Rafinclest, and he will give up?"
"I can't figure it out, if I hadn't adjusted my strategy in time and consolidated my position, how would the Night Elves still have a place for me now?"
"So I've helped you a lot. β
It sounds ironic, but it's true. β
β......γ β
"You know, now that the entire council is crowding me out, and they're always talking about abolishing the Watchmen, I've had to add some more tasks to hunt down all sorts of horror creatures in order to increase my prestige? β
"Why are you telling me this?"
"I really can't find anyone to listen to me but you. β
"There is a knot in your heart, you should find a priest, right, your sister can do it, why do you pour mental garbage to me, is it a new way of punishment?"
"Whatever you want. Priest - I hate that group of hypocritical sluts led by Tyrande......"
"Mavi, please stop in moderation, don't insult Tyrande!" Illidan shouted as he gritted his teeth and clutched the cell door.
Mavi ignored it, and she continued to speak in a calm tone: "As for my sistersβI must not show a negative side in front of them. β
"So you chose me because I was locked up and didn't have any right to refuse?"
The sun climbed high in the sky, the beach warmed up, and the amphibious Naga soldiers showed extreme irritability under the scorching sun.
A light breeze blew through the trees, and Mavi's long hair on top of her head and the cloak behind her back swayed in the wind.
"Illidan, why have you fallen into an alliance with these ugly creatures, give you a chance to go back to prison. β
"What! I've finally been free, and you're going to let me go back to that dark prison?"
"Don't you understand that there is no place for you in this world, including your own brother, who will harm you in order to achieve his goals. Back in prison I was at least able to ...... Protect you. β
Illidan laughed and said, "Protect me, you're funny, I'd better die in this treacherous world than be caged like a beast." β
"Lord Illidan, let me meet her. Fasqi on the side was a little impatient, and her most pressing thought now was that Mavi would disappear from this world immediately.
"Don't underestimate her, ma'am, she's the Night Elves' top warrior and assassin, and the Warden Order needs his name to become a force to be reckoned with among the Night Elves. Besides, I don't want to involve you, it's my personal grudge with her. Illidan stopped.
His flaming gaze turned to Mavi, "Mavi, I'm not the same person anymore, you see what I look like now, I'm not even a Night Elf anymore, therefore, the laws of the Night Elves are invalid for me, and I won't go back with you." Besides, now that I have a new mission, I have a responsibility to make this world a better place. β
"So you're determined to resist arrest?" said Mavi coldly.
"Looks like I can't communicate with you. Illidan turned away from Mavi, "Ma'am, let some of the Naga soldiers hold them back, and let's go to sea first." - Also, destroy the boats that you don't need and don't let them follow. Mavi - it's insane. β
"Yes!" Fasqi immediately confessed, and then sailed into the sea with Illidan in a boat.
A group of Naga soldiers pounced on the Watchmen on the coast in a fit of rage.
