Chapter 1300 I Don’t Care at All
A piece of 'history' that seemed to come from another world brought back all the long-lost memories in Khadgar's heart.
He once had many teenage dreams. He dreamed of being a great hero who saved the world. He dreamed of becoming the greatest mage and leaving his name in history.
His parents sent him to Dalaran for training since he was a child, and taught him this. When his talent was activated and he became a disciple of Medivh, this was what he longed for.
Goals are different from dreams.
Goals can be achieved through hard work and time.
But the dream is loftier and more distant.
Suddenly, I was told that I was actually a hero in another world of Azeroth that was balanced with this time.
All the dreams, all the vanity, and even the occasional hollow feeling in the chest were filled in an instant.
The long-dormant feeling in the soul seemed to be awakened.
"So... can I be so strong and be so admired by others...?"
This feeling was indeed wonderful, but unfortunately the next moment, Khadgar suddenly woke up.
Is this heroic figure still him?
Do what happens in other timelines in the parallel world have anything to do with the main timeline where you are now?
Suddenly, Khadgar's head shook back and his whole body arched back.
Perhaps, in that world, he, like the protagonist in all heroic legends, was the gathering point of the world.
It was precisely because of that real feeling that it brought him a brand new and very dangerous experience, which made him feel a little unreal.
As the input of Duke's thoughts stopped, Khadgar found that his senses were normal again.
He gasped for air. This was a habit. The spirit body did not need to breathe.
Khadgar began to carefully distinguish what was true.
Duke said nothing, nor did he remind or force Khadgar to do anything.
In Duke's imagination, not many people could withstand such an impact. Especially the psychological gap is too big. After spending twenty years of such a terrible life as a soul, how many people can bear it when they suddenly realize that they can actually be awesome?
In Duke's view, this is even a bit like opening Pandora's box, which may release many horrible things, such as the most negative emotions.
However, don’t forget that the last thing at the bottom of Pandora’s box is hope!
Therefore, Duke wanted to take a gamble on anything he said.
He wanted to see if the archmage Khadgar, who was originally extremely powerful in history, had lived up to his reputation.
It has nothing to do with the understanding of magic. There are too many talented people in this world, and only a few of them will eventually become successful. Success or failure depends more on willpower than talent.
Khadgar's will has always been very firm.
"Hoo ho ho!" Khadgar gasped: "Can I see it again? Even...can I see my future self in that world..."
"Okay." Duke replied calmly and at the same time sent the image produced by the system wizard again.
Khadgar closed his eyes. He slowly relaxed his senses and allowed the large number of images that invaded his sea of consciousness to gradually become comfortable, until it became as smooth as watching something or a movie, with scenes flowing in front of his eyes. .
Khadgar was once again immersed in the virtual 'me in another world'. In that real illusory world, he opened his eyes and took a deep breath.
Now, he is standing in a 'memory' that belongs only to him, in a small world centered on him. What is flowing through him is the energy of the whole world in that world, and what he feels is twenty years as a soul body. A feeling that is impossible to feel.
This was very fresh and heavy, and it allowed him to see some things that he couldn't otherwise see...
That's right! In that world, he is the hero, he is the leader.
Likewise, he is burdened with many things that he does not need to carry in the main world.
Choose!
For those in high positions, almost every decision is accompanied by pain and sacrifice. Nothing can be achieved without paying a price, and there is no war that does not require death.
Here, he was a miserable low-level mage during his lifetime. After choosing to keep his soul, he only needs to fulfill his duties as a butler, and he can pass all dangers to Duke, be his own librarian, swim in the sea of books, and immerse himself in magic experiments.
In that parallel world, he is the alliance's most important magic advisor and an important leader of the alliance. Every speculation and policy decision about the mysterious field is extremely heavy.
It has to be said that Khadgar's mind was confused, entangled, and even bitter.
But at this moment, Khadgar saw something more... something Duke let him see intentionally or unintentionally...
Sometimes, without contrast, there is no harm.
Khadgar saw that under Duke's leadership, the first and second Dark Portals ended in a total of more than two years.
In my own world, it took six years.
In this life, Duke vigorously developed technology and economy, and repeatedly turned the tide. In the field of conventional warfare, the alliance almost suppressed the enemy.
On their own side, the Kingdom of Lordaeron was destroyed, as well as Alterac, Stromgarde, Quel'Thalas... almost the entire continent of Lordaeron was reduced to scorched earth, and then the Undercity rose, and the Kingdom of Sin'dorei surrendered. The tribe...
Only by comparing them side by side can Khadgar truly feel how big the gap between the two worlds is.
Khadgar was confused, his mind seemed to have turned into a ball of mush. He was completely unaware that while his thoughts were extremely confused, the other five elementalists watched in astonishment as Khadgar's soul strength increased at a geometric rate.
"This is..." Thaddeus looked incredulous.
"Only the tested soul is the strongest soul." Alonsus sighed.
Duke didn't bother Khadgar.
Duke also risked his life, completely risked his life!
He really didn't know how telling Khadgar the 'truth' would change this loyal butler who had guarded his Karazhan for twenty-two years.
He can only gamble!
"Hoo ho ho!" Khadgar kept breathing rapidly. Finally, after two minutes, he seemed to calm down.
Duke asked in a deep voice: "Khadgar, is it a pity? Are you resentful? Maybe you could have done better."
Khadgar raised his head and smiled: "Sure enough, the work done by the bronze dragon is difficult for humans to accept. I saw that I was so heroic in the other world, and I was a little confused about which one was the real me."
Duke said: "Have you thought about it now?"
"Think about it! I am who I am in this world, and I am who I am in that world. Since I can do it in that world, I think I can do it well in my own world." At this point, Khadgar revealed A mysterious smile: "I know what you are worried about, my lord! I want to say that your worries are unnecessary."
"Superfluous?"
"It's the same reason why you gave up when you had countless opportunities to become the emperor. My reason is almost the same - the world is about to be destroyed by demons, and I don't care who becomes the great hero!"
