Azeroth Shadow Trail

   Chapter 487 40. Sisters! I'm not a burden!

   Time goes back twenty minutes.

While Alleria and Sylvanas started talking, in the second Windrunner sister's room, Nathanos Maris was lying on the goddess' bed, with the goddess' pillow and the goddess' sheets covered. .

   This is a very feminine room.

   There is another side of Lady Sylvanas that doesn't show to others.

   The more feminine side.

   For example, the dense cosmetics on the luxurious dresser, from the various perfumes made by the masters of elves, to the skin care potions extracted by the human masters with herbs, and then to the fragrances made by the second sister herself picking black roses.

   Even some voodoo meds from the trolls for better skin.

   Plus, there's a surprisingly large wardrobe full of ladies' clothes that Sylvanas won't wear, though she's always in a Farstrider uniform outside.

   Of course, there are a lot of decorations in this room that belong to a ranger.

   For example, the black war bow hanging on the wall, the elf war knife on the weapon rack, and the elf war halberd held in both hands, and the lynx head placed on the other side of the wall.

   That was the trophy specimen that the second sister got from hunting for the first time when she was a young girl.

   This is the tradition of the Windrunner family.

  As a lady's boudoir, flowers are definitely indispensable.

   On the desk, a delicate vase is filled with delicate black roses, giving the whole room a faint floral fragrance.

   Well, the second sister of Windrunner really likes this kind of thorny flower.

  Unfortunately, Nathanos, the licking dog, finally came to the place of his dreams, but he could not appreciate the environment here.

   He will still be in a coma.

  Although Pastor Liadrin judged that his injury looked terrible, but it was not serious, but in order to make him recover better, he still applied a magic spell to soothe his soul.

   Refresh him in deep sleep.

   "click, click"

   Just by the window of the quiet room, there was a slight noise.

  The champion dog Desolation is lying on the wall, using his nimble claws to open the high windows little by little.

   Beside it, the blue fox electric claw is squatting there, wagging its big tail, looking around vigilantly, and giving the desolation of "doing bad things" a wind.

   Once someone comes over, the fox will make a sound immediately.

   At that time, what other people saw were two loyal and neglected pets of war outside the master's door. But in fact, what these two guys are going to do is much more complicated than what others have seen.

   "woo"

  Desolation took several minutes to open the intricately-shaped elf-style window. It lowered its head and whimpered to the blue fox next to it.

   The latter got up immediately, ran a few steps, and stepped on the barren body like climbing a wall.

   Swish and got into the house.

   A few seconds later, with the twist of the door lock, the door that was closed to allow Nathanos to rest better was also opened from the inside, Desolate and vigilant looked left and right, and rushed in with a swish.

   Don't forget to use the tail to bring the door.

  The two guys squatted beside the unconscious Nathanos.

  The champion dog looked at his master with a sad look, smelling the medicinal herbs and the veiled blood.

   This means that the owner is injured.

   And the blue fox pouted in disdain. As a soul beast, it can see more than this stupid dog. Nathanos' soul was intact and unscathed.

   This means that the owner is actually very healthy, and there is no need to lie here and rest slowly.

  “Shu”

   The blue fox's tail forced itself to jump onto Nathanos's hospital bed. This action immediately attracted wild dissatisfaction. It grinned and bared its teeth towards the electric claw.

   But the fox sneered back with a disdainful smile.

   It stretched out its claws with an electric arc and placed it on Nathanos' chest, just like doing electric shock therapy, and with a buzz, a ball of electric arc smashed into the ranger's body.

   made the sleeping Nathanos grin, but he still didn't wake up.

   This made Electric Claw tilt his head in confusion.

its not right.

  I met a starving human in the Dusk Forest before. Under the guidance of that nasty old Gani, he only needed to use his claws to electrify his heart to wake up.

  The fox's tail moved irritably.

  It stuck out its tongue and licked its sharp mouth, thought for a while, then simply waved its paw and hit its owner on the cheek.

   This claw is not a casual hit.

  Soul beasts have all kinds of strange abilities. Soul walking is just the most basic one. They also have an ability called Soul Shock.

   is generally used for hunting remnants or self-healing, but because it is a direct attack to the soul, it can also be used to purify some soul-level magic.

   This thing is essentially an attack, so the effect of purification is very rough.

   Under the slap of the electric claw, the "soothing soothing" effect on Nathanos was directly dispelled, and the ranger jumped up from the bed.

   Then a sharp pain in the abdomen, unsteady standing, and fell to the ground.

   Quick-eyed and quick-handed, Desolate jumped over with a squeak, and caught the master with his calf-like body to prevent him from being hurt more.

   "Oh, it's you two."

   Nathanos clutched his aching waist and abdomen. The action just now made the wound that had just been healed by the Holy Light torn open again, but as a battle-hardened ranger, pain could not defeat him.

   He quickly stood up against the wall, glanced around again, and understood where he was.

   also reached out and touched the loyal Desolate and Electric Claw heads.

He says:

   "Fortunately you woke me up, otherwise it would be really awkward. That **** Blake, I treat him as a brother, he actually wanted to kill me

All right.

   I knew he was actually there to help me.

   But the feelings that come from such coercion are really not what I want. "

   After speaking, Nathanos picked up the equipment he had put aside, put it back on slowly and with difficulty, and tied his luggage to the leather belt around his waist.

   He took out a hearthstone that had been prepared long ago from his suitcase.

   This item was bought by him in Dalaran with a lot of money at Blake's advice. It is a very unpopular magic item.

   is essentially a quick-use teleportation scroll, but it will not have any magic power fluctuations when using it, and it can also avoid the obstruction of most magical enchantments, and quickly teleport the user to the place marked in advance.

   looks like a lot of benefits.

   But actually using the process is very troublesome.

   First of all, the activation of Hearthstone takes up to ten seconds of casting time, and there can be no interference in the middle, which means that it is difficult for this thing to work in battle.

   Secondly, the cooling time of Hearthstone is very long, and it takes several days to recharge itself after use, which is far less convenient than a reusable magic scroll.

   And it is expensive, several times more than the average magic scroll.

  Finally, although Hearthstone's teleportation can ignore most magic blocks, it has a single teleportation location and needs to mark the location in advance.

   To sum up, although this thing appeared in the magical world very early, except for some travelers, few people took the initiative to buy it.

   Even most warriors have never heard of this thing.

   And now, facing the situation of being "trapped" in Windrunner Manor, Nathanos finally understands Black's intentions. Isn't this thing like Hearthstone prepared for this situation?

   He shook his head, intending to activate Hearthstone and leave Windrunner Manor quietly, but the next moment, he saw the ink and quill on Sylvanas' desk.

  The Ranger thought about it and walked over, took out a piece of letter paper, and began to write his farewell letter.

   or break up letter.

   With what he knew about Sylvanas, after what happened last night, the relationship between him and Sylvanas was doomed.

  Although the pirates created a near-perfect opportunity for him to pursue, as the Ranger himself said, he doesn't need the kind of feelings that are coerced by "saving grace".

   From this point of view, this guy Nathanos is really a hopeless bastard.

   He has an unreserved love for Bai Yueguang in his heart, and even would rather reluctantly give up than leave a stain on his feelings.

  I already know that I can't ask for it, so let's just let it go and let the best of each other stay in the hearts of both parties forever with this not-so-perfect ending.

   Ah, it is the most standard dog licking plot that will definitely be made when the dog licks to the deepest point.

Nathanos quickly finished writing the letter. He put the letter in the envelope, kissed it lightly on his lips, left it on the table, stood up and beckoned to his dog and fox before activating the furnace. Stone leaves.

   But at this moment, the door suddenly opened.

  Lyras Windrunner, who was carrying his lunch, was thrown down by Desolation as soon as he walked in.

   The falling plate was caught by Maris with precision, and he covered Lilas' mouth with his other hand.

   He made a look at Windrunner's little brother, telling him not to make a sound, let alone create a situation that would embarrass everyone. Lilas was still very smart, he understood what Nathanos meant and nodded.

  Marris let go of his hand and made a gesture to let the good dog who was pressing on the elf back away, and let Lilas stand up.

   "General Maris, where are you going?"

   Windrunner little brother looked at Nathanos, who was dressed neatly, and asked in a low voice.

   "Where else can we go? Go home."

  Marris grabbed the hearthstone and rubbed it lightly in his hand. He complained:

   "By the way, I went to some **** to settle the account. He almost killed me with one arrow. He also said that he wanted to share the tricks of taming soul beasts with me, but he ran away without saying anything.

   What a complete asshole. "

   "Is that the pirate?"

  Lyras frowned immediately, the somewhat feminine elf boy shook his head and said:

   "That's not a good guy!"

   "Yes, he is not. He is the most evil person you can think of, but he is also a powerful person, a person who can influence the outcome of a war on his own."

   Nathanos said:

  "He's already so powerful, he must have some kind of knack for finding strength, I'm going to find him, let him make up for my mental loss, and pass that knack to me by the way.

  Oh, just kidding.

   I just have no reason to stay here anymore.

   I have been looking for a way to not sin, trying to become a bond between the differences between the two races, but in the end, I still became the enemy of the elves.

   Maybe it's time to go back to the motherland and continue my life as a human being. "

   "No, it's not!"

  Lyras replied at once:

   "Second sister didn't say she hates you, she just needs some time to accept the truth, you can stay, no one will drive you away.

   Although you are human, but.”

   "I'm a human, Liras."

  Marris laughed, he waved to the younger brother Windrunner, and said:

   "I will never be able to truly integrate into this land. There is actually only one reason for me to stay, and I gave her my life last night.

   Nathanos, who used to live for her, is dead.

  I learned a truth last night that I should have learned a long time ago. If I don’t have the strength and only rely on my heart, even if I get it, I won’t be able to keep it.

  Perhaps, I should try to become the 'Blightcaller' my brother has been talking about.

   Well, it sounds like a very powerful name.

   gone, give that letter to your sister for me. Also, don't listen to Black's nonsense, he's a hopeless alcoholic who likes to talk nonsense when he drinks too much.

  You are a very good young man, and may become the best bard of Quel'Thalas and of all elves. "

After   , he was about to activate Hearthstone, but was pulled by Lilas.

   There was a gleam in the eyes of little brother Windrunner, and he said:

"What you said just now is very good, and I think so too. I mean, I don't want to be a troubadour anymore, and I also want to protect something, and this kind of protection can't be done with paper, pen and ballads. "

   As he spoke, he quickly took Sylvanas' bow from the wall behind his back, and took the sword from the weapon rack and tied it around his waist.

   He let out a long sigh and said to Nathanos who looked strangely:

   "I'm going to see my mother, please take me with you! Please."

"Uh"

  Nathanos looked at Lilas with firm eyes and said:

   "I can't take her heart, and I can't just take her only brother, maybe you should."

   "Look, I packed all my clothes."

  Lilas pulled out a package of very delicate clothes from his magic bag, and said:

   "I originally planned to leave home and go to the military camp for formal training after I finished delivering your meal, but I have to undergo training, so why go to the military camp?

  My mother trained such a good pirate.

   She can also train me.

  I was too confused before, maybe, it's not too late to wake up, take me with you, General Maris, eh. Brother-in-law? "

   The last name of Windrunner's little brother, completely blocked all reasons for refusal by Maris.

   "I will definitely regret this for the rest of my life, I already guessed it."

  Nathanos patted his head, he sighed, waved to Lilas, and said:

   "Leave the letter, write it short, and let's go.

  I warn you, boy, I won't be accustomed to you like your sister, go with me, you are ready to suffer in advance, and Blake still doesn't know how to torture you.

  Trust me, he can do more bad things than you can imagine. "

—

   "You and I both know what will happen next, so please forgive me for leaving without saying goodbye.

   I cannot choose between my brother and you any more than I can choose between Lordaeron and Quel'Thalas. I don't want to be a coward who betrays the Alliance of Brothers, let alone use brazen betrayal as a tool to get close to you.

   Maybe it would be nice to be an 'Honorary Quel'Thalasian'.

   But it really doesn't work for me.

   The choice is tough.

   But when I showed up last night, I actually made a decision. I can only wish you all the best in the future, if you need help just call and I will answer.

   Finally, the news of the spirit beasts of Northrend is true.

  I have written its orientation at the end of the letter.

   But from what I know about Blake, he must have left some "surprises" there, so when you travel far north, please be sure to pay attention to safety and be fully prepared before setting off. "

   Sylvanas, who was lying on the hospital bed, read the letter expressionlessly.

   At the end of the letter, there are some detailed descriptions of Zul'Drak's spirit beasts, as well as Nathanos' own experience in taming spirit beasts.

  Second sister's fingers were tightly clenched.

   She seemed to want to shred the letter as her response to the coward.

   On the other side, the eldest sister by the window also frowned, looking at the letter left by Lilas.

   This letter is very simple.

   contains only one sentence:

   "Eldest sister, and second sister, I went to find my mother with General Maris.

  If I can survive, it will prove that my mother is still the original mother, if I die, don't cry for me, this is the last and only thing I can do for you.

  Sisters, I am not a coward, I am not your burden!

   I will eventually become a man who can protect my family and my motherland like the ancestors of the Windrunners!

Bless me. "
