Chapter 205 Feelings are deep and boring
At the same time, Countess Catlana Presto was invited into the reception room of the Duke of Berval-Fortagen.
Seeing the arrival of the countess, the servants in the room left with great interest.
"Oh, Berval."
Katrana looked at the majestic man in front of her with her watery eyes and teased, "Why do you want to have dinner with me today?"
Berval beckoned the beauty in front of him to sit down at the table, sat down on the opposite side of him, and then conjured a bottle of red wine as if by magic, put it on the table, and said, "Catlana, I happened to get a bottle of Bordeaux that was thirty years old, so I thought of you."
Noticing the bottle of red wine, Catlana's left eyelid jumped slightly, and she said, "Oh, what a coincidence, for this dinner, I also prepared a bottle of Bordeaux that has been aged for 30 years."
After that, Katrana also conjured a bottle of red wine like a magic spell and put it on the table.
Isn't that unfortunate?
"Oh, you have Bordeaux too, what a coincidence."
Bolval's left eyelid also jumped slightly, and then he asked, "So whose one do we drink first?"
"Hmm, what's that...... There you have it."
Katrana's eyes rolled, "Since our wine is for each other, why don't we each drink a glass of each other's wine, what do you think?"
Bolval nodded knowingly, "Okay."
Then, the two opened their respective wine bottles and gave each of them a glass, and their feelings were deep.
"Good wine!"
Bolvar lowered his glass and looked at Katrana with affectionate eyes.
Katrana also put down her glass and looked at Boval in front of her with affectionate eyes.
In the next second, the two of them hugged
together, and then rushed into the bedroom...... After some time, Katrana woke up from Boval's chest and saw the situation in the room by the moonlight outside the window:
"Oh, Berval, why is your room so messy? It's like someone has struck me with magic."
Lying on the bed, Bovar hugged the beauty in his arms and complained, "Katrana, be more restrained next time."
"Huh? Oh, I'm sorry."
Catlana realized that she had unleashed the dragon's coercion in the depths of her love, and shattered the jar in Boval's bedroom.
At this point, the two lovers (dragons) have finally become married, which is really gratifying, and if Michaela is here, she will definitely bless them.
However, for these two de facto rulers of Stormwind, it's just getting started!
"Katrana, tell me," Bervar said, "Is the Tribal Ambassador's words about Varian true?" Is His Majesty Varian really on Okaz Island?"
Sure enough, Michaela's words could not have happened as if nothing had happened, and the little king Anduin kept clamoring to find his father, and then it was Boval himself who nodded and asked Katrana to perform hypnotism to calm Anduin down.
Katrana didn't answer directly, but said, "Don't you wonder why the tribal ambassador knew about this?"
As soon as these words came out, Bolval understood, and immediately sighed, "Alas, you crazy Alterac nobles."
"Katrana, you don't think that if we don't go to Varian, others won't go to Varian!"
Boval shook his head and said, "As far as I know, Gianna of Theramore has been looking for Varian,
And there's people looking for them on the tribe's side."
"Tribes? Why did they ......" Katrana was a little puzzled.
"Katrana, this is your shortcoming, as a dragon, there are some things that belong to mortals, you can't understand."
Regarding the politics of mortals, it was Bolvar who saw it more clearly: "Thrall knows that the orcs are not clean when they come to Azeroth, so he is desperately trying to whitewash the green skins to make us think that they are not evil."
"Think about it, what if Thrall did find Varian and send him back to Stormwind safely? We can still lift in front of the tribe
Can you afford it?"
Katrana understood, "So, the ambassador sent by Thrall is testing us, and he already knows Varian's whereabouts."
As soon as she finished speaking, Katrana suddenly added, "It's okay, I can adjust the place of detention, and even ......."
"No!"
Boval stopped Katrana, "Do you know what I regret the most?"
Katrana looked thoughtfully into Boval's face.
"The thing I regret the most is that I didn't stop you from taking Varian!"
"I know that the bond issuer's actions have caused a lot of displeasure among the nobles, but he has always been the king, and I am only the duke," said Boval.
It turned out that Bolval was not involved in the "Missing Envoy" incident, he only got a subtle hint from Katrana in advance, so that Bolval was able to stand up for the first time after the news of Varian's disappearance was transmitted back to Stormwind City, and clean up those careerists who dared to jump out to make trouble.
However, it is precisely because Bolval moves too fast, that it is a little too fast
Normal, so many people blame Bolvar for Varian's disappearance. For this reason, Bolval corrected Crown Prince Anduin to crown him king, and publicly swore that he would definitely find His Majesty Varian, which stabilized the royalists in the country and allowed the transfer of power in the Stormwind Kingdom to be smooth and excessive.
But for Katrana, Yu Gong, the Black Dragon Legion wants to control the expansion power of the human kingdom, so they will take action to get rid of Varian; For personal reasons, in terms of administrative ability, Bolvar is indeed much stronger than Varian, and it is more beneficial for Bellval, who is friendly with him, to come to power.
Therefore, the Black Dragon Princess intends to convince Boval: "Berval, you should know that Varian's indiscriminate issuance of public debt has caused a financial crisis in the country, and many nobles are dissatisfied with him. It was you who restructured the country's economy after coming to power and put everything on track!"
Remember the Varian debt mentioned earlier?
At the beginning of the recovery of the Stormwind Kingdom, the goblins knocked Varian hard, which stretched the kingdom's finances, and at that critical moment to rebuild the kingdom, Varian had to issue a large amount of public debt, which directly led to the kingdom's economy being manipulated by the Lordaeron Kingdom, which bought a large amount of Varian's public debt.
Until the Catastrophe War, the Kingdom of Lordaeron was destroyed, and with the disappearance of the largest creditor, the Stormwind Kingdom could pay off a large amount of debt, and the economy instantly became a lot more prosperous, and it stands to reason that this is a good time for the Stormwind Kingdom to pay off the remaining debts and put the finances on the right track.
But Varian didn't think so, and he chose to continue issuing debts, which led to the kingdom of Stormgard becoming a new creditor......
No wonder the nobles privately called Varian the "Debt King", and no wonder Varian
After Ann's disappearance, the royalists did not bother Bolvar too much, because they also knew that Varian's indiscriminate issuance of bonds was unreliable......
It wasn't until Boward came to power that he tightened spending across the board and cut off countless projects that relied on debt to raise money (such as the Hospital of Saint-Love, which had no doctors and patients, and the daily funding for the Church of Light, all of which were affected by this policy), and finally managed to break even, ending the history of excessive bond issuance in the Stormwind Kingdom.
As for the battle to support the kingdom of Stormgard in the Arathi Basin, there must have been preparations for it...... Well, according to the official statement, it is through support to pay off debts, no wonder Boval would want to engage in a behind-the-scenes deal with the Horde......
Ahem, let's get down to business.
After listening to Katrana's words, Boval smiled bitterly and said, "Katrana, I am the Duke of the Stormwind Kingdom no matter what, and I swore that I would definitely get His Majesty Varian back."
Katrana could hear the frustration in Boval's mouth, after all, "You must know that if Varian returns, then the good days for both of us will come to an end. And, have you thought about it, the tribal ambassador has just mentioned Varian, and he will be back soon, which will surely cause a lot of suspicion."
"So there's no need to rush on this matter."
"I meant to bring Varian back, but I didn't say exactly when or how he would return," Bolval said.
"Ah, I see."
Katrana immediately sent an affectionate kiss
"Bolval, you're awesome!"
Not only that, but Katrana also raised her left hand and condensed a thumb-sized, jet-black and brilliant gem in the palm of her hand:
"This is for you, it's called the Dragon's Eye,
A token of our commitment. As long as we have it, no matter what happens, we will definitely meet again."
Bolwal, who had taken the jewel, kissed Catlana on the forehead and said, "I will definitely set it in the medal and wear it every day."
"Stormwind is an absolute blessing for the kingdom to have the power of a dragon."
Bolvar continued, "Without you, I wouldn't have known there were so many ghosts lurking in Stormwind."
Katrana smiled contentedly and said, "Tessa, the little clerk, for example."
Bolval nodded as well, "That's right, little clerk Tessa."
It turns out that Tessa has been discovered a long time ago!
"But it's not all my credit, we wouldn't have been able to find out about Tessa's strange behavior when she left Stormwind all of a sudden," Katrana said.
"But the one who can see the strange energy in her is you." Bolval said.
Katrana continued, "Tessa's disguise is even better than mine, and if I hadn't been suspicious of her and let me look at her a few more times, I'm afraid I wouldn't have noticed her anomaly. In addition, although there is no direct evidence, it is speculated through camouflage that Tessa is likely to be the Dreadlord sent by the Burning Legion."
Bolval added, "And the closest demon army to Stormwind is the Kazak Legion stationed near the Dark Gate, where Tessa is likely to come from."
"yes."
Katrana seemed to be talking about her exploits, "That's why I suggested that Tessa go and meet the tribal ambassador Michaela, after all, the latter is a warlock who deals with demons, and it's funny to think about. If Tessa is able to Gu
Michaela then spreads chaos to the entire tribe, and that's great news."
It turned out that it was the plan of the two of them to let Tessa receive Michaela, but they didn't know that Michaela had already dealt with Tessa, that is, Gulian Tessa. They even formed temporary alliances for their own purposes.
At this moment, Bolval suddenly remembered something: "By the way, Michaela wanted to tell me that he wanted to go to the Great Prison...... No, forget it, it's nothing."
"Huh, the Great Prison?"
Katrana frowned, "Michaela wants to go to the Great Prison? That's a place I wouldn't even dare to go!"
Berval nodded, "The Great Prison has always been our Stormwind City's greatest secret, the details of which only the kings of the past have known. All I know is that there are a lot of things sealed in it that will never see the light."
On the other side, Michaela finally leads Tessa to a corner of the sewer.
"We're here."
Tessa pointed to the stone slab above her head, "Push the stone slab and go up, it's the bottom of the prison."
"Good!"
Michaela held out her hand to the slate above her head......
