Azeroth Shadow Trail

   Chapter 208 27. It's very handsome to appear, Your Excellency Catman

"Um."

  Under the warm streetlight, Black, who was wearing camouflage magic, nodded.

   Answer aloud in simple words.

   The Orb of Deception can disguise its appearance, but its disguise for the sound is poor. It would be too much to say too much. He bluntly reached out to the vigilant Jaina and sent something.

   In the palm of his fat palm, lay the silver anchor-shaped pendant, which was slightly melted by the dragon fire, but the original shape could still be seen.

  The slender chains are intertwined, reflecting a slightly cool-toned light under the magic street lamp.

   At the moment of seeing this thing, all the vigilance and anxiety in Little Jaina's eyes completely disappeared, replaced by a touch of surprise that could not be concealed.

   She immediately reached out and held the silver pendant in her hand, checking it repeatedly with the meticulousness unique to a mage.

   She recognized this thing.

   This was a gift from her father when her brother Derek Proudmoore was born, every child in the Proudmoore family has a similar pendant.

   Jaina herself has one.

   was worn around her neck and never left her body.

   Outsiders don't know the tradition of the Proudmoore family at all, and they can't imitate an identical pendant at all. The fat businessman in front of him can take out this thing, which proves that he has indeed seen his brother.

   This also proves another thing!

  In the legends of outsiders, my brother who had died in the waters of Khaz Modan and sank with the Third Fleet was really alive!

  He is in a corner of the world right now!

   "My brother he."

   Little Jaina's heart was filled with surprise and warm emotions.

   She held the pendant with both hands and placed it on her chest. When she raised her head, her big eyes were full of tears. She seemed to want to question the person in front of her:

   Since his brother is alive, why didn't he come to see her?

  Why are you hiding this news from your family again? Doesn't he know how uncomfortable and painful this will be for his family?

  Father is like that because of the pain!

  Why doesn't my brother show up?

   But before she could ask a question, she saw the fat businessman in front of her, smiled and narrowed his eyes, put his finger to his mouth, and made a silent gesture to her.

  Black deliberately made a thick voice, imitating the rotten voice of Hablon, and said softly to Jaina Proudmoore in front of him:

   "Prince Drake is doing something great, little princess. He has set out on a path undisturbed by fate, and it will be hard to return to the world of us mortals until greatness is achieved.

  I am just a humble messenger.

   I can't tell you too much about his fate either.

   But he himself told me that one day, after he has finished his work, he will come back to you and he will come back to his loved ones.

   Just now, all he can give you is the only thing that represents his life.

  He wants you to comfort your heart with this, so that you can inherit his will.

  Please also understand his difficulties. "

   "Thank you, Messenger, but I want to see him."

   The little princess' doll-like face showed a touch of gratitude and loss. She pursed her lips and said softly:

   "He keeps appearing in my dreams, and every time I want to talk to him, he disappears into the sea with a smile, I asked the mentor, and it seems to represent a kind of misfortune.

  I want to meet him, I just want to tell him that no matter what kind of bad luck he suffers, he can come home and get through it with us.

   No matter what he becomes, I will never want to give up on him.

   Can you help me bring this sentence to my brother?

   said that his sister is waiting for him in Dalaran, I will study magic hard, until one day when I am strong enough, I will take the initiative to see him.

   I believe he is doing great things, my brother is His Royal Highness the Prince of Kul Tiras, he will do great things, he will achieve greatness.

   And I, I will help my brother and help him take down all the bad guys who stop him from going home!

   Let him not worry about me. "

   Jaina wiped her tears and tried her best to smile at Blake. She could see that she didn't want to worry the messenger in front of her, so she turned her face and straightened her expression.

   turned back and said:

   "Please tell my brother that everything is fine with me, and I'll wait for him to send me a letter. If I really can't come back to meet, it's alright to write a letter, right?

  If he is too busy, he does not need to reply.

   I will write to him as long as he can receive it. "

   "He will reply, sensible little girl."

  Blake stood up, and under the light of the street lamp, he said warmly to the little princess in front of him:

   "I will also bring your words to your brother, I promise, he will hear it exactly. But I also have a request, please help him hide the news about your brother for the time being.

  Your Highness Princess, you are a promising mage. You know that there are many mysterious forces in this world. Your brother is now fighting some of them.

   He didn't want this danger to extend to his relatives because of his reasons.

   This is what he specially told me to instruct.

   He said, this is a secret that belongs only to the two of you, then, I want to ask you, can your Highness Drake Proudmoore trust you? Her Royal Highness Jaina Proudmoore. "

   "Can't even my father say it?"

   Jaina hesitated.

   She gestured "a little" to Blake in front of her and said:

   "My father is in pain. Although he has been covering up his pain in front of me, I can feel it, can I reveal a little bit, just a little bit."

"cannot!"

  Black shook his head and said:

   "If you can't keep it a secret, Jaina, then I have to take this pendant back. Your brother is trying to protect you, and you need to understand his difficulties.

  Be nice, okay? "

"OK then."

  Little Jaina immediately clenched the pendant in her hand as if she was holding the most precious treasure. She nodded and said to Blake very seriously:

   "I swear in the name of Jaina Proudmoore that I will not reveal this to anyone until my brother has finished his career.

   But if I'm going to write to him, who should I send it to? "

   "Blake Shaw."

  Blake pretended to be serious, picked up his cane, leaned it in his hand, and said to little Jaina:

   "An assassin on the verge of fame, a pirate on the verge of roaming the seas, who, like me, is a trusted follower of your brother.

  You can send the letter to Ravenholdt through the channel. Just like the process I gave you this note, I believe it will not be difficult for the daughter of the sea.

   must pay attention to confidentiality, and use code to communicate when necessary.

   If you have any needs, if you need something urgently, or if you sense that you are in danger and need help, you can take the initiative to find him.

  When your brother doesn't come forward, he can help you fulfill your request, but don't contact too often, he also has his own business to do.

  Alright, little princess.

  You've been away from the mage tower for too long, and this raises suspicion.

Let's go back.

  Hide the joy in your heart and pretend that nothing happened. From today onwards, you are also your brother's little guard. "

   "Well, goodbye, sir."

  Little Jaina looked around vigilantly, just like she was a secret protector, she politely bowed her head to Blake, then leaned on her staff and walked away quickly.

   But just a few steps away, Blake stopped her again:

   "Wait, one more thing, your brother found a mentor for you.

   He doesn't think Antonidas can complete your magic teaching and life education, don't worry, I just tell you this news in advance.

   You don't have to do anything, he has arranged everything for you, you just need to follow your brother's arrangements, that's all. "

"but"

   Jaina turned her head suddenly, she tilted her head and said to Blake:

   "But I think the mentor is very good to me, he is also very good, he."

   "No, Antonidas isn't great, especially when compared to your new mentor."

  Blake waved his hands in disapproval, made a farewell gesture, and said:

   "Please trust your brother, little Jaina, obey his arrangements, he will not harm you. Be obedient, don't disobey your brother's request, he will reward you."

   "Well then."

  The little princess pursed her lips, she thought Blake waved her hand, wrapped her hood, leaned on the ice staff taller than hers, and walked quickly to the mage tower.

   When she entered the mage tower, she looked back and saw that under the magic street lamp across the street, the fat gentleman was no longer there.

   "My brother's followers are so mysterious."

  Thinking of this, the little princess stepped into the mage tower.

   A smile that she hadn't seen for a long time finally appeared on her face, and she hummed a song in a relaxed mood, but soon she remembered Blake's advice and hurriedly straightened her face.

   looked left and right again, and found that no one noticed, she quickly returned to her room, looked at the silver pendant in her hand, and smiled silly.

   Then take off your pendant and hide it carefully.

   He put his brother's pendant on his neck again.

   She picked up a piece of parchment and a quill, lay down on the table, thought about it, and began to write her first letter to her brother.

   "Dear brother uh, you can't write it like this, it's confidential. Well, then write it dear Blake, also can't. Oops, it's complicated.

How about this.

   is written as dear Mr. S, that's not bad. "

—

   "The current Jaina is obviously very well behaved, so obedient, why would she do such a thing like killing her relatives in the future?"

  The pirates complained in their hearts.

   Under the guidance of the magic street lamp, he turned forward to a street intersection, planning to cross the alley, go back to the Brilliant Grocery Store, and spend the night in the stronghold of Ravenhold.

   Waiting for Merry Winterwind to arrange his reception.

   But just as Black walked into an alley, a beam of teleportation light suddenly lit up behind him.

   The fluctuation of that magic power was obvious, and it was obvious that the visitor did not intend to conceal his appearance.

  The pirates stopped.

   He glanced back.

   After the blue teleportation light shattered, a dark-haired young man appeared in the shadow of the alley.

   He wears a robe with the Kirin Tor purple magic eye emblem, and holds a staff wrapped in four red crystals in his hand. He has thin cheeks, a beard, and sharp eyes.

   It is worth noting that on his shoulders lies a black and white kitten.

   That kitten is very interesting.

  The whole body is white, only the cheeks, ears, four claws and tail are black. It also has a pair of blue eyes, very beautiful, very delicate, and small, which makes people feel pity and love.

   It must also be the beloved pet of the ill-informed black-haired mage.

   As a kind of magic that has been used by high elves for thousands of years, normal teleportation should not have such violent arcane fluctuations.

   It must be that the mage deliberately increased the mana injection in order to protect his cat when the teleportation technique took effect, but this also means that the mage is very confident in his own strength.

   Otherwise, he wouldn't be here with his pet.

"you are?"

  Blake pretended to be confused.

   "Shhh!"

  The mage made a silent motion, and glanced at the sleeping kitten on his shoulder. He changed the staff to the other hand, so that his shoulders were flat and not disturbing the kitten's sleep.

   said to Blake again in a light voice:

   "Kel'Thuzad, a high-ranking mage of the Kirin Tor, was transferred to Archmage Antonidas a few months ago and conducted magical research under his guidance.

   I live with Jaina Proudmoore in the Archmage's Mage Tower.

Before leaving, the    Grand Master told me to take good care of the disciple he valued very much.

  Little Jaina is a very good magic apprentice. Her talent is amazing, but she is too young to know much about magic other than ice magic.

   is like the camouflage on you, this gentleman.

   This is a very special way of using magic power developed by the high elves from Quills in the long past. As far as I know, this camouflage magic was originally used to provide elven assassins and rangers on their missions.

   So, sir, are you from Quel'Thalas?

   And, why are you reaching out to Jaina Proudmoore privately? "

   He asked two questions.

   And it looks like he won't get an answer and won't leave.

  Black moved his shoulders, took out a gray-white dice, gestured to the mage in front of him, and said:

"Wait a mininute."

   "Wait until I throw a dice before I decide how to answer you."
