Chapter 992: Loyalty and Righteousness are unparalleled
Although the fight for the throne was inextricable, thanks to the mutual restraint of the two sisters and brothers, this royal fight finally did not develop to the point of being out of control, and the family relationship between them was not completely broken.
Galia fulfilled her promise and did not impose any restrictions on Arthas, who had lost the competition, and he was still able to live in his own side hall as a member of the royal family.
Galia has even made plans that if Arthas can get through this period of confusion and regain her fighting spirit, she is willing to give Arthas the corresponding official position and authority, so that he can contribute to the development of the kingdom of Lordaeron.
Salaan had no intention of commenting on Galia's slightly naΓ―ve approach, which was a family affair for the Minerhir clan after all.
In his opinion, the arrogant Alsace would certainly not accept his sister's gift of power.
What his future holds, Sarean is not sure at this stage.
may be decadent all day long borrowing wine to drown his sorrows, and gradually be raised into a rich idler who does not hold any authority.
They may also regroup after a short period of depression and accept solicitations from other forces to prove their abilities and worth in a different way than Galia.
As far as Salain knew, not only the neighbors around Lordaeron and some of the still-undying Lordaeron magnates had thrown olive branches at him, but the Burning Legion and the Scourgeon were also eyeing the prince who still had the right to claim it.
Sarjan hoped that Arthas would accept Neozu's invitation to join the Scourge in a different way than the original history, so that at least he could be included in Kel'thugad's surveillance, and to some extent predict Arthas's mode of action.
"The Burning Legion?"
Valilla asked, puzzled, "They also want to recruit Arthas?" No matter how you think about it, he can't say yes. β
Salian nodded in agreement, "I think so too, but it's also a possibility after all. β
"Arthas has a lot of self-esteem and is in the prime of his youth, and I don't think he'll join the camp of the culprit who just caused his defeat in his bid for the throne."
The Demon Rebellion was the main reason for the failure of the competition in Arthas, and if it weren't for their wanton rebellion in the royal city, the Knights of the Silver Hand led by Uther would not have been so quick to make up their minds to end the civil war and unite with the outside world.
Sarjan: "Let's see, I don't think the Backlight Blade has been keeping an eye on the suspicious figure entering and leaving Arthas's palace lately, and I don't think he'll be depressed for too long." β
β¦β¦
Salian guessed that Arthas, who was unwilling to do so, would soon cheer up, but he didn't expect Arthas to come to the embassy early the next morning to visit Kurtilas.
Needless to say, it is also known that he is here for Gianna, who is attending the ceremony on behalf of Kurtilas.
When Valeera heard the news from Valeera, who had a strange expression, Salian couldn't help but laugh.
"Sure enough, he is a young man with strong blood, and the young Mu Ai can be regarded as being played by him."
"Talk like you're old." Valera asked with a smirk, "Don't you have to intervene?" Not worried about Gianna being pried away by him? β
Saray shook his head without hesitation: "You also know that Gianna is not the kind of person who goes to the twilight, let him go." β
"Even if Alsace wants to use force in a hurry...... Do you think he can beat Gianna today? β
At this meeting, Gianna's Arcanist level was already stuck at level 49, and she was only half a step away from breaking through to becoming an archmage.
Although Alsace also practiced diligently every day, he needed to be distracted from state affairs in the past two years, and it was impossible for him to concentrate on improving his personal strength like Gianna.
Although I couldn't confirm the current level of Arthas, I don't think it should exceed level 45, and there is still a long way to go from Gianna.
Hearing this, Valera also smiled and shrugged her shoulders: "Okay, I'll let people follow them from a distance, I don't know if Gianna will be the fuse that prompts Arthas to finally make up his mind." β
Salian said noncommittally, "Who knows, by the way, I just received a message from Kel'thugad. β
"He has entered the royal city with Baron Rivendell, who has come to watch the ceremony, and he intends to go and persuade Arthas himself."
Valilla wasn't surprised by this, as she had learned about Baron Rivendell's movements through the Defense Intelligence Agency and Backlight Blade a few days earlier.
After the battle for the throne was officially decided, Stratholme's army, which had blocked the Sodolil Bridge, did not hesitate to withdraw.
This is because Princess Galia, a moderate to Quel'Thalas, would not easily stop his army if she won against Arthas, for the benefit of her own territory.
Not long after the retreat, Baron Rivendell actively responded to Princess Galia's call and set out from Stratholme to attend the queen's enthronement ceremony with his entourage, and Kel'thugad was also mixed in.
Due to the correct alignment, Baron Rivendell is likely to be reused by the new king in the foreseeable future.
In comparison, Viscount Gwen Garithasus, the lord of Daron County, who had been at odds with Stratholme before, was more embarrassed.
After much hesitation, the old viscount, who could not wipe his face, asked his son Osmar to go to the royal city of Lordaeron to attend the ceremony on his behalf.
Due to the late departure, Osmar and his party happened to meet Alfred Abidis and Maxwell Tairosus, who had just completed their self-inspection of their own territory, and the two waves of people happened to march towards the royal city together.
When she first heard the name Osmar Garithasus, Valeera didn't react, but the barrage suddenly exploded.
With their knowledge, Salian learned about the future "great achievements" of the son of the young lord of Talon County.
To put it simply, the Garishers are great humanists through and through, and they have inherited some of the extreme ideas of Terenus, and they look down on all races other than humans.
The Garissers family and the Rivendell family are on the opposite side, and it's no wonder that the two don't fight when they collide together.
Today's Osmar Garissus is still young, and Lordaeron, who has not yet suffered natural disasters and turmoil, is not yet the turn of Marshal to come out and "turn the tide".
However, at the behest of the so-called three-year-old and eighty, under the command of Sarjan, detailed information about Osmar was quickly sent to Sarren's temporary desk.
As the barrage says, Osmar was also a great humanist because of his family's upbringing, and he has repeatedly made contemptuous and offensive remarks against Quel'Salas in public.
If Arthas wins the throne, the Gallisus family, who bet on the right treasure, may really be able to take advantage of this.
Unfortunately, this kind of thing is not destined to happen.
Sensing the change of history, Sarjan is too lazy to invest too much energy in a mere lord of Talon County, and the Rivendell family, who are about to rise in power, will treat them as a thorn in their side and eat them little by little.
Lately, Sarean's main focus has not been on the enthronement ceremony, but on the congresses that will follow the celebrations.
The reopening of the Dark Gate is a foregone conclusion, and under the premise that the kingdom of Lordaeron, which has the strongest comprehensive national strength, cannot take action for the time being, Salian intends to take this opportunity to persuade the other kingdoms participating in the meeting to jointly increase the number of troops at the Watchtower.
The Stormwind Kingdom, which is closest to the Dark Gate, apparently has the same opinion.
Although King Varian Ureon was temporarily unable to take a break due to the birth of his eldest son, Anduin Urien, he sent his absolute henchman, Duke Berval Vortagen, to attend the ceremony on his behalf.
Saray and the Duke of Vortagen, who arrived at the royal city of Lordaeron ahead of schedule, and the Kingdom of Stormwind also hopes to receive reinforcements from the northern kingdoms.
The Kingdom of Stormwind has died once because of the opening of the Dark Gate, and they are more sensitive and serious about the changes in the Dark Gate than any other country.
Quel'Thalas had just sent Winlessa to garrison the Overwatch with half of his elite Ranger troops, and it was only natural that Bovar would have a crush on Quel'Thalas, who was the most active in his actions.
After an exchange of views, Sarayan and Boval hit it off, and decided to jointly propose at the National Congress after the celebration that the countries send additional troops to the Watch, so as to prevent the possibility of a repeat of the tragedy of 15 years ago.
"Valeera, I'm afraid I haven't had time to follow Arthas's growth lately."
While writing the letter that was about to be handed over to Prince Liam Greymane, the representative of Gilneys, Salian said to Valeera without raising his head: "You help me keep an eye on him, and if someone other than Kel'thugad succeeds in persuasion, remember to inform me as soon as possible." β
Valera nodded, "Okay, you can get busy first." β
Before she could finish speaking, Valera vanished from Sarren's office in a shadow.
After writing a small paragraph, Saljan pauses for a moment and moves his wrist to look up at the sunny window.
"Arthas, in the face of solicitation from many sides, what choice will you make, let me wait and see."
