Volume I: The End of the Outlaw 87
Uther kept looking at me with a strange look, but I was snickering inside. Bishop Fao's smile seemed to have something to say, but he didn't look for me.
I've been following Prince Fred for so long, and although I don't like this man, I can't help but say a few more words about him being kept in the dark. Maybe it's because I don't want to see it end badly, or maybe it's because I want to see a different ending.
For the next few days I lost interest in the nobles who continued to visit, and I stopped even paying attention to their names. After all, I don't know any of them, and I've never heard of a name.
Tulayan, an ignorant seventeen-year-old boy, was as religious as Usor, so much so that when he was around. I can't bear to swear all the time. From that day on, he looked at me with a little admiration and curiosity, and he seemed to be more interested in my background. I guess I heard the story I had with him from Uther. It was also from that day that Tulayan became my little follower.
"Have you ever thought that one day, you will find an elf to be your wife?" I said to him.
Although he is 17 years old, he doesn't seem to know much about these things for men and women. From his somewhat embarrassed and shy expression, I could tell that he should be in love. Perhaps there is a physiological reaction to the elves who have proud bodies and attractive faces.
"Hey, don't be shy. You're a man now, too. I encouraged her.
"I ...... I must first find out the path of the Light and be like Uther. ”
"Haha. You have it, if you're like Uther, maybe your father will kick you out of the family. ”
"You...... How do you know...... "It seems that I overestimated the wisdom and experience of this young man.
"Why didn't I know? Do you think that little bit of your life can be hidden from the eyes of a prophet like me? "I've gradually learned to play tricks.
He never mentioned his family origins. He thought that as long as he didn't talk about it, it would be airtight. Actually, Uther and I both knew.
Lordaeron's celebrations and commercial activities seem to have come to an end. Kings and nobles from various kingdoms have left the royal city one after another.
When I heard the news that the nobles were beginning to leave Lordaeron, I left the church. Although I went to the embassy or consulate in Alterac to inquire again, I found that Fred did not seem to be affected by my words, but seemed to be more active. It seems that this guy left the church and forgot about the intimidation of my prophet.
The spring sun brought the earth back to its senses, and last year's cold and plague dissipated with the warm winds. The willows in the city have sprouted green sprouts.
I waited by the King's Road leading to the North Gate. I didn't dare to go to the elves' abode. For these elves, I am afraid that they will be shot down by an arrow before they have even climbed up their roofs. But I'd love to see them again, especially Sylvanas Windrunner.
Opportunities are for those who are prepared, and this sentence is not false at all. When I saw the elves riding tall chocobos walking towards this side. I was surprised and apprehensive again.
Although hidden in the crowd on the side of the road. But the elves, especially the two female elves who were rangers, still noticed the burning gaze in the crowd.
Sylvanas' grim face was so charming. In my heart, I was impressed by her appearance and temperament.
Of course she saw me, and although she still had that grim expression, I felt that it was a very remarkable thing for me to be aware of her, and it made my heart flutter.
She broke away from the group and stood in front of me.
"Why are you following us? Mortal. Her tone was as serious as her face.
Everyone around them flashed to the side in surprise.
"I think it was an accident that I came to this world, but when I met you, I felt that it was all arranged by fate." I looked her straight in the eye.
"There's nothing new about the way you're talking to girls."
"But it's true." I took her words.
"My king has spared your life, but you are not ready to do it yourself." Her tone was serious, but I didn't hear the threat.
"I believe he spared me more than just for the sake of the High Elves." I smile.
"Why do you look so ordinary, but you seem so confident?"
"You can dismiss the present, but in the future you will remember the present."
"What are you pretending to be a Catholic for?"
"I'm from the distant kingdom of Stormwind, and I said I met you by accident, but when I met you, I was sure! This will be a necessity for the future. I am not a prophet, but I know the future of you and your people and of this country, this city. ”
"You're a madman." Her tone changed.
"The sun does not hang high in the sky forever, but death becomes eternal. Sylvanas Windranger! When the land on which you stand becomes scorched earth, you are crowned king. "I said." I think we'll meet again! It's just that I don't know if the next one can be a living person. ”
Her face didn't change, but there was a hint of doubt in her eyes.
"Allow me to call you the Queen in advance." I said with my left hand open, "Please go on your way with peace of mind, Your Majesty." ”
With a slight bow to her, I turned and prepared to retreat into the alley. I feel like that's impressive enough.
Suddenly, an arrow grazed my ear and was nailed into the wall in front of me. I turned, and Sylvanas slowly lowered the bow in her hand.
"I'll remember you. Mortal. ”
"Thank you for your parting gift." I smiled at her and reached out to pull the arrow from the wall. When I raised my arrow and beckoned to her, she smiled at me. Yes! That smile almost swept my soul away.
Carrying the arrow into his arms, he felt so beautiful in his heart that he was even walking much lighter on the way back. It's an elven arrow! It was Sylvanas' arrow to me!
Along the way I prepared to return to the cathedral, wondering if I should show off Tulayan. But just as they were crossing a street, a large group of guards hurried over. In a good mood, I looked curiously to the side. In the mood to join in the fun, I followed them.
The further I went, the more I felt that something was wrong. Because I saw it. The front of the Alterac embassy and consulate is surrounded by troops!
I chuckled inwardly. Broken! Something went wrong......
Mixed in with the crowd watching the excitement around him, he tried to look inside, trying to see what was going on inside. However, it was surrounded by guards on three floors. According to this posture, something terrible should have happened inside.
The guards began to disperse the crowd around to watch the excitement. I also consciously stood aside. But I couldn't find anything, so I resolutely went around the alley behind. But just as I was about to climb to the roof, I suddenly noticed that there were a lot of guards on the roofs around me.
I hurriedly shrank my head and ducked back.
I asked the people around me about the situation, but even the shops and homes dozens of meters away from the embassy and consulate didn't know what was going on inside.
I didn't dare to leave, I was afraid that if I did, I would miss some important clues.
When I was standing in the distance and watching, I was completely stunned by the scene in front of me. When a crowd of Lordaeron guards poured out of the embassy and consulate, I saw an extremely familiar figure. Mounted in a carriage by Lordaeron's guards. Not only the rack, but of course, the drag.
Putting in the carriage was Fred's little lover with a crying face.
What's going on here? What about Fred?
After standing outside the embassy and consulate for a while, I quickly returned to the cathedral. I asked Uther if he had heard anything about what had happened in the palace or among some of the nobles.
He said he did not know.
And I asked him if he had heard anything about the Prince of Alterac whom I had prophesied. He still shook his head.
When it was night, I snuck out. I'm going to see what's going on at the embassy and consulate in Alterac.
This embassy or consulate has been cordoned off. There are many guards around the embassy and consulates. After walking around the embassy and consulate, I managed to climb into the courtyard. There were no patrols in the courtyard, and the embassy and consulate, which had been lit by candlelight all night, was now pitch black.
Slipping into the big villa, I walked straight to Fred's room. Gently pushing the door open, I found the house in shambles. And there was a large area of blood left on the ground.
After walking around the room, I didn't find anything more, and the ambassador's room, I found that it had been turned upside down.
Could it be that something happened to the Kingdom of Alterac? Fred was involved in the coup?
It wasn't until the next day, when Bishop Fao had just returned from the palace, that I was shocked to learn the news!
Fred is dead......
I don't know what the Bishop knows, but his mysterious smile makes me feel a little scary.
"You were right, son." The bishop whispered to me.
"Maybe it's just a flash of light."
"Kids. No matter what you've done before, what you've been through...... I hope you try to get into as little trouble as possible. I know you're a special person, but sometimes the more you know, the more dangerous it becomes. ”
Looking at his kind face and kind smile, I didn't know what to say to him.
"Thank you for your advice, Your Excellency. Thank you for helping me during this time. ”
"Kids. Chaos and order, light and darkness, are all sides of the same coin. But you have to remember first, whether you submit to chaos or order? Be in the light or hide in the darkness. The Light will never forsake you! When you feel lost, listen to the Light's call to you. ”
I said nothing more about the bishop's counsel. He just bowed deeply to him and turned away.
Fred is dead. How exactly he died, the bishop did not tell me. However, Fred's death at this time gave me an extremely strong premonition.
A huge storm seems to be coming.
