Shadow Trails in Azeroth

At eight o'clock in the morning, Black was preparing to set off to meet everyone at Cenarion Fortress and the Secret Passage.

The good news is that they no longer need to trek across the desert on two legs. The stinky pirate's precious egg falcon has already flown to the druids' stronghold in the desert in advance.

She also brought out a ceremonial stone.

Lexa and the others can summon everyone there.

The bad news is that as soon as Blake finished drinking his breakfast wine, the door to the captain's cabin was violently pushed open.

Looking at the old man with red eyes and panting in front of him, the stinky pirate felt that his good mood for the day had been ruined.

"Are you here to give money?"

Black sat on his captain's chair, put down the wine glass in his hand, picked up a handkerchief and wiped his mouth, saying:

"Is the love potion I prepared by myself easy to use? Let me tell you, the dosage has been specially modified based on my experience. It will definitely work."

"Shua"

Before he could say anything, an angry Khadgar flashed over and grabbed him by the collar.

The mage, who had lost his mind and didn't know where to find the strength, grabbed Black from the chair. The stinky pirate was lifted to the desk as if he had no bones.

At the same time, the buzzing Salamani also roared and pressed against Khadgar's neck from behind. As long as the mage made any dangerous moves, the sharp and flaming sword would cut him down in an instant. .

"You should be grateful that Sharathol is on 'duty' today."

The pirate let Khadgar hold his collar, with a nonchalant expression on his face, and said to the angry mage in front of him:

"Otherwise, with your current actions, my poor Garona will wear a small white flower on her chest and call herself a 'widow' from now on."

"She left. Did you do it?"

Khadgar ignored Black's wise words. He stared into the pirate's eyes, his questioning voice almost squeezing out from between his teeth.

He asked:

"It must be you, right?

Besides you, who else can convince her to leave me without saying goodbye? She said she was going to do something that only she could do. She said she was called by destiny and she had to do it.

Such a tone will confuse you at first sight!

You bastard!

She trusts you so much, and I started to trust you too.”

"Since fate is calling her."

Blake complained without any shame:

"Then you go find destiny. Could it be said that Lord Khadgar regards me, a stinky pirate, as the spokesperson of destiny? Wow, this is really such an honor."

"Stop talking nonsense!"

The mage roared:

"Give me back my Garona!"

"I'm going to criticize you now."

Black stretched out his hand, clasped Khadgar's wrist, and pressed the mage's hand back bit by bit.

Khadgar tried to resist, but his strength was simply not enough to counter the force Black was exerting.

The smelly pirate stood up straight behind his desk and said:

"Garona does not belong to anyone. In fact, no woman belongs to any man. Your statement is very incorrect, Mr. Mage.

It seems that Medivh failed to teach you respect for women.

But this is normal. For innocent men, sleeping with a certain woman once seems to mean that you have reached a certain contract, as if you have all the control over her.

When will you macho bastards understand the stupidity of your ideas? "

"I'm not here to argue with you!"

When it comes to oral skills, how could Khadgar be Black's opponent.

The mage calmed himself down and said calmly:

"I just want to know where Garona went. I just want to know, what did you ask her to do?"

"But I want to quarrel with you. I think it's very interesting. When dealing with an orthodox mage who doesn't know how to curse, I can always provoke you in different ways."

Black laughed and picked up his pipe, took out a small crystal ball from his drawer, shook it in front of Khadgar's eyes, and then placed it in front of the mage's eyes.

Reach out gently.

The next moment, everything that happened in Khadgar's cabin last night appeared on the crystal ball, and the intimate actions between him and Garona were clearly visible.

The mage's teeth were cracked by the sight. He grabbed the crystal ball and threw it to the ground.

There was a soft clang, and the precious crystal shattered to the ground.

"That thing cost two thousand gold coins."

Blake sat back on his vulgar and luxurious captain's chair, lit his pipe, puffed out the smoke, waved his hands and said:

"For the sake of our good relationship, I'll just charge you four thousand gold coins."

Khadgar remained silent.

But his fingers moved to the hilt of the red magic sword at his waist. This dangerous move made Salamani, who was leaning against his neck, shake.

In this way, the Elven Excalibur "reminds" Khadgar to stay calm.

The stinky pirate didn't care at all.

He looked out the window at the endless Silithus Desert under the morning light, and said softly:

"Have you ever considered this situation before you came to me angrily? You want to get answers from me, but what if I don't want to tell you?

Do you have a backup plan to threaten me to achieve your goals?

I guess you don't.

The orthodox mage who claims to be rational will still lose his sense of proportion when it comes to caring for things that he loves. Medivh definitely didn't teach you this, which is normal. He hasn't really started teaching you yet, and he was beaten by you, Garona, and Lothar. Join forces and kill them.

To be honest, I don't think the three of you combined can match Medivh.

I guess that the Astral Mage was tired of the long spiritual confrontation with Lord Sargeras, and he just committed suicide with your hands.

That wasn't a great victory.

What I mean is, if you continue to make progress like this, Khadgar, it will be difficult for me to trust you with my friends. Garona needs a smarter and more capable man to protect her and serve as her solid backing

Do you think you are qualified? "

"I can learn, I can learn from you, I can learn from anyone, I am confident in my ability to learn, and if she needs me to become the person you describe, then I can!"

Khadgar held the hilt of the sword and said in a deep voice:

"Tell me first where she went?"

"Tsk, tell me so bluntly that you are going to become a bastard like me, and I see the determination and seriousness in your eyes, that you are willing to give up the persistence of the first half of your life for a woman.

What a terrible man.

Or, I should say that you were really tough when you pulled up your pants. "

Blake knocked on the table and said:

"Are you serious?"

"What do you mean the first half of my life?"

Khadgar whispered:

"Although I look more mature, I'm not much older than you. If you can do it, then I think I can do it too."

"It sounds nice."

Blake blew out a smoke ring and said:

"You may not realize the seriousness of the matter of you and Garona being together. Let me give you a little analysis. I hope you won't interrupt me, listen to me patiently, and then tell me your answer. .”

Khadgar nodded.

The stinky pirate changed into a more comfortable position and slumped down on his chair. He hooked his fingers, and the suspended Salamani flew back with a whoosh, clinging to the pirate's hand like a well-behaved kitten.

Blake thought for a while, coughed a few times, and said:

"First of all, you have to take into account the bad relationship between humans and orcs. Countless people died on both sides during the seven-year war. Blood feud has been forged. Temporary peace does not mean the dawn of reconciliation.

Some people commented that this is a constantly rotating wheel of hatred. In the future as far as the eye can see, nothing can stop this rotating hatred.

I can't do it, and neither can you.

You are a human archmage, a human guardian trained by Dalaran, a war hero, Lothar's close comrade-in-arms, one of the representatives of the human magic world, and a household name.

But he has to conclude a life contract with an orc woman.

That female orc you loved assassinated a human king with her own hands because she led to the disastrous defeat of the human side in the First Orc War.

A country collapsed and almost became extinct because of her.

During the Second Orc War, her hands were stained with the blood of human warriors.

You and I both know that Garona is controlled by Gul'dan, and many people know this, but so what?

The next thing you do is done.

Just because she is innocent, King Ryan and those humans deserve to die, right?

What's more, Garona is not innocent.

You know this very well.

Once your relationship with her is exposed, you will lose everything you have now!

Prestige, status, reputation, your friends will turn against you, the people you protect will call you a traitor, and your name will be regarded as a shame by Dalaran.

does it worth?

Just for the love of a woman. "

Khadgar didn't answer.

Blake didn't expect him to answer. He raised a second finger and said:

"Even if you don't care about those external things and are willing to wander around the world with your beloved, this does not mean that you can live a peaceful life.

MI7 has always regarded the death of King Ryan as a disgrace to the entire organization. Granny Shore, who hated Garona deeply, has retired, but her grandson Mathias Shore is outstanding.

Once Shore learns the news about Garona, the entire MI7 will be dispatched immediately.

Those guys won't give up until they get Garona's head.

Shaw is my brother, and I know his strength very clearly. He has a shadow artifact that I personally handed to him. It is a weapon that can compete with Garona's Kingslayer.

The most troublesome part is here.

Both Shore and Garona are my friends. I can't take sides in this matter. If you are involved, if Shore is injured, I will have to step in to solve the problem.

I won't beat Garona.

But I will beat you up! "

Khadgar snorted, indicating that he didn't care about the threat.

Black curled his lips. He felt that Khadgar had never been severely beaten before, so he had to find an opportunity to beat him up to let him know the threat he posed.

The smelly pirate raised his third finger and said:

"The last question you need to consider is that due to some special reasons, I can't tell you any details about this matter. I can only tell you that what Garona is going to do is something so dangerous that one wrong step will lead to death.

Not only would she die, but if she failed, more than a million people in Draenor and Azeroth combined would die.

This is still the lowest number.

If you insist on participating, it means that your hands will be stained with blood.

In the worst case, you may be seen as the culprit of causing a disaster, and there is no turning back from this matter. As long as you leave here, it means there is no exit option.

Either win or die. "

The captain's cabin fell silent.

After a few seconds, Khadgar raised his chin and said:

"Is this what you want to say? That's it?"

This reaction made Blake raise his eyebrows and he said:

"Isn't this enough?"

"Then I'll tell you my answer."

The mage straightened his hands, leaned on the table, stared into the pirate's eyes with great pressure, and said:

"Tell me, where did Garona go?"

"Are you stupid?"

Blake sneered and said:

"I've told you that for some reason, I can't tell you any information about this matter. What are you doing here asking me? Can you find someone who can tell you the news?"

"No one on this ship will tell me anything of value until you nod."

Khadgar said:

"I'm not here to ask you for answers, I'm here to ask for permission."

"I allow it, get out."

Black waved his hand, turned around and went to look for wine in the wine cabinet, ignoring Khadgar.

When the mage walked out of the captain's room, the pirate said casually:

"Remember to send me an invitation when you get married. Also, if you dare to bully my friends, I will search the ends of the earth and the stars to kill you. You can try to see if I can do it."

"Prepare some money."

Khadgar left without saying a word and left without looking back.

The next moment, the first parasaurus appeared next to the captain in the form of a spirit body. She looked at Khadgar who was leaving with some worry, and said to Black:

"Didn't you say there was a contract? You are not allowed to do anything that would undermine the emperor's plan. If you do this, will it bring you trouble?"

"Won't."

Blake took out a bottle of wine, opened the lid and took a sip, then pursed his lips and said:

"My agreement with the Nasrezim is to help them clean up their mess. When they act without my participation, this contract will not take effect.

Of course, we cannot hinder them openly.

Haven't you discovered it yet?

The Emperor actually didn't care who fulfilled his request. He only needed to see a qualified sword holder for the magic sword. Frostmourne also had to be paired with another artifact to be effective.

The control has always been in the hands of Emperor Denathrius. I am just his pawn, a spare one.

Gee, it’s really unpleasant to think about. "

But Sephiel had been following Blake for more than a day or two. She soon heard another meaning from the pirate’s words. She widened her eyes and said:

"That means that even if Garona and Khadgar succeed in stopping Nasrezim, it won't be considered a victory. They still have to face it."

"Yeah, that's right."

Blake drunkenly held the slender waist of the first parasaurus and said to her:

"This pair of unfortunate couple defeated the Dread Lord, and now they have to face me. What do you think are their chances of winning?"
