Chapter 407 The Crying Heart

This was a grand celebration banquet, and there were at least a thousand guests present.

There aren't many guys around Duke, however.

Because the horror story of retreating thousands of troops with one banner was deliberately downplayed and weakened by the government, many local nobles who did not understand the reasons did not know who was actually responsible for the nonsensical victory of the elves. Moreover, Duke's background is too big-the deputy commander of the alliance, and everyone under his command is a king. Theoretically, after Quel'Thalas joins, the mage group will also be available to Duke.

As a result, the weakest person who dared to show up in front of Duke was a local lord or a member of parliament.

Duke also dealt with them with a formulaic smile.

However, Duke could instinctively feel the contempt in their bones. At the beginning, one or two of them could be said to be misunderstandings, but in the end, even Kael'thas beside Duke had a bad face. Because more than one congressman couldn't help but want to test Duke with his mental power, as if he wanted to know how Duke was able to get into the position of deputy commander of the alliance with such a weak strength as the morning star mage.

You must know that unless the Elven Master Chen Xing is of noble origin and seniority, he will not even be able to get a member of the Silver Moon Council.

Every guy who made a shot had his claws chopped off by Duke.

It's like the rock-paper-scissors, the cloth, the ring, the ring, no matter what form of mental power you have, Duke can find a way to restrain each other in less than one-tenth of a second.

At this point, they began to take a serious look at Duke, who was too young, no matter from the perspective of humans or elves.

Duke's focus was on Aurelia.

With the help of the sound filtering and amplification of the system elves, Duke heard what the elves around Alleria were saying.

"Niece Alleria! I heard that you are going to serve the great human lord. Are you going to get a title? Have you confirmed where the fief is?"

"Sister Alleria, are you going to marry that boy who is the deputy commander of the alliance? I'm so envious of you..."

After listening for a while, Duke finally understood that these were a group of middle and low-level elf nobles, and they were somewhat related to the Windrunner family.

It's different from those high-ranking nobles who slapped their faces to pretend to be fat. The most severely affected this time are the nobles whose fiefdoms are in the southern part of Eversong Forest.

The forest that had not changed for thousands of years was burned, and a large number of people were killed. It seems that the royal family and members of the parliament who also suffered heavy losses did not intend to support them. Hard times ahead are to be expected.

Quel'Thalas is also located in an embarrassing geographical location. It occupies the northernmost part of the entire continent, and its south borders on Lordaeron, the most powerful human kingdom on the continent.

There is no room for territorial expansion at all.

If you can't survive, people will naturally change their minds. They came to Aurelia's side with the mentality of trying their luck.

Alleria was embarrassed. In fact, she decided to hang out with Duke only a few days ago. She doesn't know what position she will be in after the so-called transfer to servant, and whether she has a title. Of course she understood that Duke would not treat their sisters coldly, but she was so busy these days, and that incident happened...

Seeing Aurelia stunned, these relatives had different expressions: some were curious, some were expecting, some were smirking, some were perfunctory, some were meaningful... Most of them were not optimistic.

In the human world, there has never been a precedent for granting titles to foreign races.

It should be, is also to fool human beings to work hard, right?

At this moment, Duke came over, and with a dozen or so steps left, Duke laughed and said, "Hey, my countess, you are here!"

Countess?

This honorable title belongs to Alleria?

No matter what country it is, if you can get to the earl level, you can't be called a minor noble.

At this time, a female elf asked half jokingly and half seriously: "Your Excellency Grand Duke Marcus, Aurelia is the most beautiful and powerful ranger general in our Windrunner family, you can't take her lightly. Don't tell us, Aurelia won't be able to get even a fief."

"How is that possible! Aurelia is my most important person." Duke was also unambiguous, and in front of these long ears he took out a certificate of territory. print.

Seeing that Duke's theoretical fief was so huge, all the elves around were startled.

"Okay, as you wish, let me tell you by the way, the fief of my Countess of East Elwynn Forest is here." Duke gently held Aurelia's hand with his left hand, and circled the map with his right hand.

This lap did not scare the elves to death.

According to the markings on the map, this is already a forest of over a thousand square kilometers. What kind of earldom is this? It is too big to say that it is a dukedom.

Alleria actually became the real duke of the human kingdom?

This news has caused a thousand waves. If it is not known that the old territory of the Stormwind Kingdom is still in a state of occupation, the elves are probably fried.

However, this is also hope!

Duke came gently, and left lightly, leaving behind a full force, and a group of more eager relatives of Windrunner.

It was late at night, and after the banquet, Duke returned to the State Guesthouse, but he found that Gavin Ladd was hesitating and leaving near the door of the first room.

This only means one thing, Alleria is here.

The melodious sound of the harp came from the room, and the Ranger and the harp were the best combination. God gave them the most nimble fingers, and the superb fingering needed to pluck the strings was as easy as eating and drinking.

However, unlike any music that Duke listened to in the past, the sound of the piano under the night is indeed melodious and delicate, but it seems to be telling a story of endless sadness.

"Aurelia, what happened?"

Putting down the harp, she walked gently in front of Duke, and Alleria hugged Duke directly. Duke could clearly feel the rapidly expanding wetness from his shoulders.

"My parents died in battle."

A single word was like a bolt from the blue to Duke. According to Duke's memory of Aurelia's history, it was her youngest brother Lilas who should have died in battle. Now Lilas is fine, Duke had repeatedly confirmed before the banquet, who knew that her parents died?

"Didn't I repeatedly tell you to evacuate your relatives?" Duke's body trembled along with Aurelia.

"Yes, they actually arrived in Silvermoon City early, but they went back without our sisters knowing. As the Ranger Lord..." Alleria choked up: "I know, this is their responsibility, It's also their glory, but I... But I just can't control myself... Tonight, I was so uncomfortable that I was going crazy, but I had to put on the most dignified and noble demeanor, and put on a smiling face to face everyone Guest, dealing with those distant relatives who can't live on..."
