"Oh, do you know me?" Regen looked at the other party unexpectedly.
"Of course, sir, you are a role model for all of us. It is a great honor for me and all my colleagues to see you at this moment!" The patrol officer eagerly took out a pen and paper, "Please sign your name for me, sir!"
My brothers and sisters also like you very much!"
"Oh...Okay" Regan was a little overwhelmed by his enthusiasm. Apparently the knight had not realized that he was one of Varian's important ministers. He was probably the only one in the Kingdom of Stormwind who still regarded himself as an ordinary officer.
He looked at it, but when he felt the same awe in the patrollers' eyes around him, he felt a little bit elated.
"Well... take it!" Taking the paper and pen, Ragen finished writing his name and handed it back to the other party with a smile.
"Thank you, sir!" The officer took the paper with some excitement and thanked him loudly.
"You're welcome," Regan nodded towards him and pointed to the Crusaders behind him. "These are Alliance soldiers who have returned from Lordaeron. I may have to go directly to see His Majesty the King. I probably don't have time to handle the registration matters, so I'll just
Could you please help me?"
"My pleasure, sir!" the officer replied flattered, "I just don't know which team these soldiers belong to. When the time comes, we will need more detailed information to divide the defense zones."
Regan smiled mysteriously, patted his shoulder and said, "Don't worry about this, you will know it at the prince's hiring ceremony."
Then he waved to Herod and White, and introduced to the officer, "These are my two adjutants. When the time comes, you only need to take them to the headquarters. As for the division of defense zones, renumbering and other issues,
, you don’t have to worry, someone will take over when the time comes, do you understand?”
"As you command, my lord!" Herod nodded and responded, leading all the soldiers to follow the officer to the headquarters.
After Reagan watched them leave, he walked towards Stormwind Fortress with Sophie and Sam. Not long after, the group walked around the canal area and arrived in front of the royal fortress. Just as Reagan was about to announce the door, a voice came from inside.
A loud voice: "Since you've arrived, just come in directly, why bother to show some false courtesy to your mother-in-law!"
Regan turned around and smiled helplessly at everyone. It seemed that Varian was still quite critical of his good advice. Although the letter to him was full of praise, a fool also thought that recruiting a controversial army would give Storm
Regardless of how much trouble the city brings, the opinions of other leaders of the alliance aside, even in the kingdom's noble council, I believe Varian is not that easy to deal with.
But then again, the Crusaders were already facing annihilation at that time. Do you want him, a priest, to watch his compatriots being blown into powder? Regan sneered in his heart and made up his mind to make all alliance members accept it.
The new Scarlet Crusade
"Yes, Your Majesty!" The knight held the royal sword at his waist and walked into the fortress with his head held high.
When he walked to Varian's seat, he was somewhat surprised to find a few familiar people. Magni and Roxus who were standing beside him naturally need not say more: the orcs came in as the guards of the dwarf king, although everyone was slightly acquainted.
Doubts, but considering Magni’s identity, I can only suppress my curiosity.
What surprised Regan the most was the representatives of the night elves - Tyrande, the High Priest of Whisperwind and Fandral, the Archdruid of Staghelm. There were only a handful of places where they appeared at the same time outside of Darnassus.
, this also reflects from the side the importance that the leaders of the Alliance attach to the heir of the Kingdom of Stormwind.
"Lord Tyrande!" Sophie exclaimed in surprise, forgetting even the most basic etiquette, and ran directly towards her dearest sister.
"Welcome back, my child!" The high priest stood up with a smile, gently held Sophie in his arms, and touched her thin face with emotion, "It's been hard on you these days! I just wanted you to
I was able to accompany Knight Regan to Stormwind City, but I didn’t expect that after being away for more than half a year, the little girl who once liked to pretend to be an adult would become a famous dragon-slaying hero in the mainland..."
Tyrande nodded kindly towards Ragen, "At the same time, I'm sorry to trouble you. Knight Ragen is often a bit willful. Thank you for being with her and putting up with her childishness!"
"No, I've always been very reasonable!" Sophie said coquettishly, shaking the high priest's arm, not forgetting to look back and glare at Regen.
"Please rest assured that Sophie has always been quite sensible. Everyone likes her very much," Regan quickly stepped forward to explain, not forgetting to flatter the priestess a little. "Of course, this is because you have taught well."
"Achievements"
"That's what I said!" Sophie wrinkled her nose happily
Tyrande pinched her cheek half helplessly and half dotingly, "Okay, after this ceremony is over, you can go back with me and save yourself from troublesome people!"
"Ah?" Reagan and Sophie opened their mouths in shock at the same time, "Go back?"
Sophie shook her head like a rattle, "No! My mission has not been completed yet! Besides, I am now Baron Regan's adjutant, how can I leave my post without permission?"
"Adjutant?" The high priest blinked his beautiful eyes and looked at Regan playfully, "I think there is more than just an adjutant, Knight Regan!"
Seeing Tyrande's appearance, Regan could not have guessed that she had already known about his relationship with Sophie. The knight smiled bitterly and shrugged: "None of this can escape your discerning eyes. I am lucky enough to be able to obtain it during my journey, Your Majesty the High Priest."
Miss Sophie's favor, now she is my fiancée...
The knight seemed to be firmly determined and bowed deeply towards Tyrande, "I hope you can forgive my sin of disrespect and betroth Miss Sophie to me!"
Sophie looked at her lover somewhat unexpectedly, and saw Regan smiling encouragingly at her. Then the elf nodded happily and looked expectantly at Tyrande, who was silent.
"Well... I don't think you have any disrespect towards me, but the crime of confinement and theft can still be established," Tyrande raised his head and smiled, "However, I can't marry Sophie to you yet."
"But..." Regan was stunned, and then stood up and was about to defend, but the high priest raised his hand to stop him from continuing.
"It's not too late to hear what I have to say first, Mr. Knight," Tyrande smiled comfortingly at Sophie, who looked aggrieved. "As a servant of Elune, I will never stop any great marriage, but
You two may have overlooked one thing, and that is life!"
The high priest bowed to Varian, slightly apologizing for his rudeness, and the Storm King also smiled and shook his head, indicating to the elf leader to continue, "It is known that the night elves have a long life, although since the beginning of eternity,
After the well explosion, most of the clansmen have lost the ability to live forever, but a hundred years is still just a blink of an eye for us. If after the two of you are combined, Knight Regan leaves Sophie first because of the limitations of human life,
Then can you bear to let your lover fall into inextricable pain and loneliness in the long years to come?"
"So I think it would be disrespectful to yourself and your lover if you have a hasty engagement now." The high priest explained the reason, glanced at the hesitant Regen and said, "I know you are also deeply
I love Sophie, but the deep gap between humans and elves created by creation has always existed. We have no choice but to face it and face it."
"No! Master Priest, this does not stop us from falling in love!" People turned their surprised eyes to Sophie, who had firm eyes. The elf said with determination, "If he lives a hundred years, I will live one too."
A hundred years old, if he only has a life span of fifty years, then I will accompany him for the remaining thirty years, and then return to the embrace of the Moon God with him!"
Sophie took a few steps back, stood side by side with Regan, held his hand and smiled, "If you can't be with your lover, what's the point of living forever? Sister Tyrande, thank you.
I have good intentions, but regardless of whether you agree with this marriage or not, I will marry Christine Regan, the man I love most in my life!"
"Silly girl!" The expression on Regan's face changed from surprise to emotion. He never expected that Sophie had such a deep love for him. The knight couldn't help but clenched his lover's hand and said loudly, "That's right! Everyone.
Your Majesty! I hope to get your blessings here, but if everyone is not happy to see our union, Sophie and I will leave your sight and find a secluded place to live quietly together, regardless of life or death.
, never leave and never give up!”
"Okay!" Roxas was so excited that he forgot his identity and shouted loudly, but Magni immediately kicked the rest of his words back in the stomach.
"There is something wrong with my guard's head. You don't need to be familiar with him..." The dwarf king laughed at everyone with weird faces, then stood up and scolded Ragen with a straight face, "You are such an ungrateful boy, didn't you see?
Come out, Ms. Tyrande, is she helping you? If you get married and give birth to several fat boys, and one of them takes the first step due to an accident, wouldn't it mean that you have to abandon your baby to fulfill the so-called "inseparable relationship"?
Abandoning'? It's simply stupid!"
Regen was stunned by Magni's scolding. To be honest, he really hadn't considered the problem of the child. Now that the dwarf said this, he seemed to feel that what he just said was a bit excessive. He glanced at Sophie who was also stunned.
He said naa-na: "But Sophie and I really love each other, why can't we be together?"
"Who said you can't be together?" Varian, who hadn't spoken for a long time, said angrily, "From the beginning to the end, I just saw you idiot jumping up and down, and you couldn't even listen to Ms. Tyrande's words; she
It says that you can’t get married. Does that mean you two are prohibited from continuing to have a relationship?”
"But what's the difference?" Sophie asked blankly.
Tyrande shook his head helplessly, and explained with a bit of hatred: "Since ancient times, human beings have lived long lives. Of course, the peak powerhouses who transcend the constraints of natural forces can live longer. If you hope to be inseparable from him,
If you don’t give up, then Ragen must become a super strong man. I originally hoped that he could talk about your marriage after reaching this height, but who knew that you, girl, would be so impulsive..."
Sophie stuck out her tongue in embarrassment and held the high priest's hand coquettishly: "I know you were wrong! Sister Tyrande, I promise to listen to you and wait until Regan becomes the strongest knight on the continent before marrying
he!"
Hearing the elf's childish apology, the surrounding leaders couldn't help but laugh. Varian stood up and clapped his hands and said, "Okay everyone, now that the misunderstanding has been cleared, let's get down to business!"
