Menethil's Power

Chapter 2 Origin
The 12-year-old Isaacs turned the holy book in his hand to the title page. The word "origin" on the parchment gave him an extremely unreal feeling, an absurd feeling of being observed and fooled in a virtual world, like A puppet is rigged to amuse the audience.

Because these are two Chinese characters, standard Song style Chinese characters.

Time went back to five years ago. The boy who saw these two words for the first time closed the holy book after a brief shock, because it is irrational to read it rashly. This holy book may involve this world Its existence proves that he came to this world on purpose, or someone knows his true origin, and the other party is likely to be the so-called space-time managers...

This sacred book definitely does not belong to Your Excellency Faol, let alone appear here, I must...

The purple crystal on the cover of the sacred book suddenly glowed slightly.Isaacs, whose mind was swaying, felt that the world in front of him was suddenly slowly infected by purple mist, and his thinking gradually froze.When his mind returned to his control, he found that he was above the royal court, standing beside his majesty Terenas whom he respected like a father. The gate of the royal court was ajar, and it seemed that it would be opened at any time.

Shaking his dizzy head, Isaacs took a long time to remember what day it is.Yes, the plague in the kingdom has been ended, and the prophecy of the prophet is self-defeating. His brother Arthas personally defeated the dreaded demon king Malganis in the expedition to Northrend. Although there were many outrageous behaviors during the his exploits.Triumphant bells sounded, rose petals rained, and the entire royal city of Lordaeron celebrated the return of their hero, and Isaacs was truly happy for his brother...

Suddenly, a wave of fear came over me, and Isaacs felt like his heart was gripped by a cold steel hand.God what have I done, he thought to himself.In his vague memory, he watched everything with a cold eye, so the wheels of history rolled over mercilessly, and now the established tragedy was about to happen, but he was not prepared for it, and he had no power to prevent it from happening.Isaacs' hands and feet are cold, his heart is dead, maybe this is the end of everything, and it is almost himself who rings the death knell.

The door opened, and Alsace, who was fully armored, walked slowly into the royal court accompanied by sunlight and flower petals.His armor no longer belonged to Lordaeron's style at all, the silver armor surface was glowing coldly, and the shoulders and knee joints were in the shape of hideous bones.The prince's face was hidden by the hood, with only a few strands of pale hair showing.

Before he could think about it, Isaacs rushed towards Alsace, and at the same time shouted to the guards with all his strength, he couldn't just watch the tragedy of patricide happen, he had to do something, no matter what the cost, it was just for Terena Gain some reaction time.

However, Alsace just raised his right hand and made a false grip, and Isaacs' charge stopped abruptly, and his body floated uncontrollably.An invisible hand of darkness tightly grasped his throat.Isaacs, who was gradually suffocating, could only struggle with all his strength, but it was completely in vain.

Witnessing all this, Terenas got up from the throne in amazement, looked at his young son who drew out his sword and walked quickly towards him, marveling at his sickly face, pale hair, and the long sword decorated with bones and demons. Sword, full of doubts turned into one sentence:
"What are you going to do, my child?"

"Inherit you, my father and king."

Isaacs' consciousness was almost blurred, but he still heard this familiar conversation, but he couldn't do anything.Just as he was about to step into Terenas' footsteps, the shackles on him suddenly disappeared.He collapsed on the ground, panting and coughing violently, he didn't know whether it was because the spell had expired or Arthas was still human, but it didn't matter anymore.Alsace has left, the royal court has returned to silence, and there are faint screams in the distance. This kingdom has ushered in its new master, and at the same time it is gradually dying.

Isaacs gasped for a while, and finally resisted the discomfort and stood up and staggered to the side of Terenas' body. Tears filled his eyes, and extreme regret tore his heart.The old king who has yet to die, the broken crown, and the collapsed Lordaeron, Isaacs feels his world collapsed...

The eldest prince who was in a deep coma was discovered by the library guards in the evening, and the poor guards were immediately imprisoned until the boy woke up two days later.The panic-stricken Isaacs spent an entire hour in Queen Leanne's arms convincing himself that what he was experiencing was just a dream, and then he was told by Archbishop Alonsus Faol who came to treat him: He had successfully communicated Shengguang, became an assistant pastor.

Isaacs was a little dazed. He had been hesitating about his career choice, but he didn't expect to confirm it directly. "Because of the holy book?" he asked, looking at the archbishop's wrinkled face.

"That's right," Alonsus Faol nodded and explained, "Some high priest's scriptures will generate a certain consciousness, self-select the successor after the master's death, and at the same time consume the holy power accumulated by him to gather the holy power for him. Seed of Light, this is a very important inheritance method of the church."

"However, it gave me a very terrible nightmare." Isaacs said cutely.

The archbishop laughed, "This is a test, my child. You are very lucky. The former owner of this sacred book should be a powerful monk. He certainly does not want his knowledge to be passed on to mediocre people, so The test is necessary. And you passed the test and became his inheritor. I can foresee, child, that you will become the most outstanding servant of the Holy Light. Yes, Your Majesty, his talent is very outstanding." Finally One sentence was addressed to the surprised Leanne.

"Of course, ahem," the archbishop's face became more and more kind, "he needs a guide on the path of pursuing the Holy Light, so, child, are you willing to worship me as a teacher?"

"But I already have many teachers~" Isaacs decided to carry on the cuteness to the end.

"I'm only your teacher of Shengguang philosophy."

"But I don't want to chase Mr. Stryker and Rocky away~"

Your Excellency Fao was helpless immediately, and could only continue to tell Isaacs how great the Holy Light is and how powerful the priest is.It is obvious that the archbishop does not have much experience in socializing with children. After promising to take three days off a week, helping to contact the Dalaran workshop, and never hiding his secrets, he finally accepted this uneasy student. Thanks to Queen Leanne who slapped Isaacs on the head hard enough to stop him.Little did he know that Isaacs had already blossomed in his heart.

His Majesty Faog left with cold sweat on his brow, and at the same time secretly decided that the work of persuading children under the age of ten would be handed over to young and gentle female priests like Iris Havenfa.Queen Leanne also left Isaacs alone in the bedroom after exhorting her a few times.The boy did not take a good rest as instructed, but got up and took the Holy Book of Origins that was put aside, flipped through it a few times, but found that he could only read the first two pages about prayer and meditation.

"Trial..." He murmured, this seemed to be the beginning of a standard legend, a boy with outstanding talent was lucky to be recognized by the relics of the sages, and then with the help of them, he reached the peak.However, Isaacs didn't feel that he had performed so well in that so-called test, and he had almost no ability to resist during the whole process.But no matter what, he has become the master of this sacred book, and the door of the extraordinary has been opened to him.Isaacs closed the tome, the amethyst on the cover was still crystal clear and charming.

Facts have proved that Isaacs’ feelings were not wrong. In the next five years of practice, he would experience an extremely real illusion when meditating or praying. From the orcs’ attack on Lordaeron’s royal city to the decisive battle against Icecrown Glacier, any illusion Isaacs faced the most critical situations in the incident, so he had almost no reaction time.But no matter how bad Isaacs's performance is, even if he dies, his mental power will increase steadily. This is why he has advanced to a full-time priest at the age of ten, and now he has reached the edge of a high-level.And as his level increased, the contents of the Holy Book of Origins gradually increased, and even added a new branch to the Holy Light spell of the church—the commandment system. Yes, before that, the church had few offensive spells. Unfortunately, the role of the priest is only to heal and assist, and the scripture of origin contains almost all punishment spells, which greatly surprised His Excellency Faol.

All this made Isaacs have some ideas about the source of the scriptures of origin, and those illusions were not so much a test as a harbinger.After being heartbroken again and again, Isaacs developed a firm belief that he would fight against the established destiny at all costs. He would never allow his parents, his brother, and his Lordaeron to suffer again. That dark end.His own arrival is the biggest variable, and the future is an established tragedy, so it doesn't matter whether the time trajectory is changed or not.This is clearly the purpose of the Mirage.The study of precepts and spells flourished when natural disasters were raging, but it appeared on this holy book at this time.Isaacs recalled the bronze flashes that he could vaguely see in the library that day. What were those mysterious guys trying to do?
There was a violent knock on the door outside the chapel, and the memories came to an abrupt end. Isaacs couldn't help but smile, and he knew who was coming without looking at him.He asked Merlock to enchant the door of the chapel, and it will be automatically locked when Alsace is detected. This is of course a headache and helpless move, after all, under certain circumstances, the bear is too annoying.

The wheel of fate has rolled, if you want to change its track, then start with this brat.
