Chapter 826 I Might Kill You
If a person wants to lie, there are two types of people who cannot hide it: one is your mortal enemy who knows you better than you, and the other is the people around you.
From the end of the Second Dark Portal War until Ner'zhul's invasion again, Duke lived a happy and happy life. When people are under no pressure, their nerves are not so tense, and they don’t have too many worries.
Big secrets can be kept, but small secrets can still be leaked.
Duke doesn't know how to talk in his sleep, but after watching Sylvanas too much, and before time traveling, he was used to screaming "What's wrong with Queen Xi" all the time, so he would always let his words slip.
In the past, you could just mess around, but now you have Medivh's prophecy about the invasion of the Scourge, plus Duke's miraculous ability to predict the future, now it's better. Queen Hope suddenly asked someone about Duke. The fatal point is reached.
Denial is meaningless. For such a guy with amazing intuition, any cover-up will be seen through instantly.
Duke flicked his robe, revealing the appearance of a sage with an immortal air and a solemn expression, which made Sylvanas look at him for a moment.
"It was... Thirty-six years ago, on a clear and dark night, the clock struck 13:61 in the middle of the night. I suddenly heard the sound of 'boom, boom, boom', which was the sound of the sky - suddenly a A very nice neutral voice sounded in my ears, and it told me a shocking secret, that is, thirty-six years later, Sylvanas Windrunner will be crowned queen!"
Duke talked nonsense seriously, which really frightened Queen Xi at first.
Although Queen Xi's IQ at the moment was a bit touching, she immediately woke up.
There are so many places to complain!
In this world, Duke's official announcement is that he was only 19 years old before he disappeared. Now, although Du is already eternal life and age is meaningless, the official believes that Duke is a 29-year-old guy who is about to enter the ranks of middle-aged uncles.
And thirty-six years ago, what the hell was that?
13:61 midnight?
The voice of heaven?
Are you sure that wasn't someone Du who was struck by lightning?
It’s still a secret!
Sylvanas was so angry that she subconsciously rushed over and grabbed Duke by the collar: "Duke, you bastard! That's enough! I'm asking you something serious, how dare you pervert me?"
But she immediately realized something was wrong. His actions were too unladylike and too intimate. How could someone who was not a very close person grab each other's clothes so casually.
"I...right..." She wanted to apologize on the spot, but the index finger of a mage's hand gently pressed her red lips. A second later, Duke replaced the magic finger with the index finger of his right hand.
Duke shook his head: "You don't need to apologize. Don't you think this is the original you? I don't remember me being so estranged from you."
"But...but you, the eldest sister, and the third sister disappeared for ten years all of a sudden. I almost forgot about you. And I also gave back the territorial documents and the noble badge. I...I...betrayed the Marcus family. .”
In the political field, this can be said to be a very serious betrayal. In the human world, the allegiance of hereditary nobles is eternal. Unless the great lord takes the initiative to remove the titles of subordinate nobles, or there is absolute evidence to prove that the lord has died and the next lord announces the lifting of allegiance, otherwise the relationship between monarch and minister is permanent.
In fact, even if the great lord releases the person, such a release will be regarded as a shame for the lower nobles.
Strictly speaking, if the Marcus family wants to call Sylvanas a traitor and launch a crusade, it is the right thing to do.
Duke said slowly: "Betrayal? I don't remember Ilucia, who acts as director on my behalf, issued a notice that you are a traitor to the family. I also don't think that an elf who defends his motherland and hometown is a traitor to the country and people. Originally, I was the one who abducted your sisters using small means. You just did what you were supposed to do."
This is already a typical case of repaying evil with kindness.
In that situation, what if he became the hero of Quel'Thalas?
Slap the Sun King and Silver Moon Council in the face, so what if the eldest sister proves that she is right? Aren't you going to be wearing small shoes when you look back? If he doesn't do it right, he might be tortured to death for some reason.
At this moment, Sylvanas finally couldn't help it and cried.
Unconsciously, she cried out, threw herself into Duke's arms, and cried non-stop.
"Asshole! Why are you so nice to our sisters? Why are you so nice to me after you have an older sister and a third sister? Asshole! Asshole! Asshole! Say - did you foresee everything and then do this on purpose? Deliberately He came to save me at the most critical moment, which made me confused! And he also took the opportunity to praise me as a queen or something."
Well, Queen Hope, at least you got a lot of things right.
"How is it possible...I'm not a god..." Duke smiled bitterly. The original history of this world was turned into a mess by him. It seems that Queen Xi has become a queen, but she is no longer the death queen of the forgotten people.
Who would have thought that after saving Sylvanas, she would still be so worthy of being a queen. She couldn't be the Queen of the Forsaken, but she was definitely going to be the Queen of the High Elves?
"Conscience of heaven and earth, I have no ability to persuade your old subordinates. I have never even been in contact with them."
Heroic guys are terrifying beings with amazing intuition.
Feeling that Duke was not lying, Queen Xi seemed to feel better. She lowered her head and fell silent.
But when she looked up seconds later, Duke was startled.
Because what appeared in front of him was Sylvanas with electric eyes and sharp eyes, not the silly girl with a mess just now.
She took a deep breath: "Okay, Duke Marcus. I have to admit that in the past ten years, I have been wanting to find a partner who is stronger than you, to surpass the eldest sister and third sister. This idea is Incorrect."
"Well……"
Her eyes seemed to have magical power, attracting Duke's gaze: "I refuse to admit my innermost feelings. This is the inner demon that has prevented me from improving my strength for more than ten years. Okay, I declare now - I, Sylvanas Windrunner, have fallen in love with you Duke. Even though this is probably a mistake or the result of someone's calculation, my feelings at this moment tell me that I really fall in love with you. "
Queen Xi admitted so generously and took the initiative to express her love, which made Duke feel surprised and surprised, and also made his heart beat wildly.
"I……"
"Wait! Before you answer, I must ask you to answer my question seriously." Sylvanas suddenly rolled up her skirt like lightning, pulled out a dagger from her inner thigh, and pressed it against Duke's neck: "You If you answer wrong, I will probably kill you on the spot and then commit suicide to accompany you."
Sylvanas was so strong and her aura was so amazing that it scared Duke.
