After the interview, Sarlayan declined the banquet invitation from the Naga nobles conveyed by Vashj, and planned to leave this underwater city as soon as possible, which made him feel very depressed.
After all, Sarlayan is a land creature. Even with the magic tools given by Vashj to counteract the pressure of the deep sea, he still has difficulty getting used to living in the water for a long time.
Azshara was relatively friendly during the interview, but when Sharlayan pointed out her plan, the huge flash of pressure almost made Sharlayan unable to hold back.
After all, she is the Queen of the Night who once ruled most of Azeroth. Azshara's kingly temperament cannot be compared to Kael'thas, who has just come to power and has a gentle nature.
Going a step further, among the many kings Sharlayan has seen, none can compare with Azshara in terms of momentum.
After successfully concluding the royal conversation with Azshara, Sharlayan planned to leave the underwater environment as soon as possible and return to the land he was familiar with.
On the one hand, it was to prevent Azshara, who was not too emotionally stable, from changing her face temporarily, and on the other hand, it was also to prepare for the task Azshara assigned to him as soon as possible.
[Although she conceals it well, Azshara's mental state is indeed somewhat unstable. 】
[This is no wonder, since Azshara fell into the sea ten thousand years ago, she has not left the only eternal palace that feels familiar to her. 】
[After spending thousands of years squatting in the palace, surrounded only by Vashki and other loyal maids, I can no longer summon officials and outstanding talents from all over the Dark Night Empire as I did before. It is inevitable that I will feel aggrieved. . 】
[More importantly, looking at the ugly appearance of the maids around me who have transformed into naga day after day, and then thinking about how I look now and how beautiful I once was, the huge gap is enough to drive Azshara, who loves beauty so much, crazy. . 】
[So, Yin Nasi often met and chatted with Azshara in the past few years, which relieved her mental internal friction to a certain extent? 】
[No wonder she specifically asked Sarlayan to send a message to Yin Nasi. After leaving the terrorist Yin Nasi who had been with her for several years, Azshara may have started to feel lonely again. 】
[My evaluation is... quick to escape! At least get out of here before Azshara changes her mind! 】
The barrage said so, and Sarlayan did exactly that.
Bite the bullet, he continued to repair in the side hall of the palace for one night. On the morning of the third day after arriving in Nazjatar, Sarlayan said goodbye to Vashj, who came to ask if he had any other needs.
"So fast?"
Vashj asked in surprise: "Don't you need to take a stroll in Nazjatar? This is the former capital of the Dark Night Empire, Zin Assali."
Sarlayan responded with high emotional intelligence: "When the day comes when the real Xin Assali reappears, I will definitely take some time to visit this underwater city..."
Vashchi showed a look of surprise and understanding: "That's right. Although we have restored the street scene of Xin Assali as much as possible, there will still be many differences due to the huge difference in environment."
"Okay, I hope you can complete the task assigned by the Queen as soon as possible. We also want to get rid of the current embarrassing situation as soon as possible and return to the familiar life on land."
Sarlayan smiled and nodded: "I will. After setting off from Nazjatar, I will rush directly to Drustvar to meet my mentor Orfa."
After personally sending Sarlayan outside the barrier, Vashchi sighed silently as he watched him transform into a killer whale and speed up to swim towards the sea.
'Did I make a mistake? No, not necessarily, maybe it’s just that the heat is not yet there. '
'The Queen has always had concerns about her Naga posture. Now is not the right time to talk about emotions. Let's observe again. '
The CP leader, who has not yet been exposed, looked at the killer whale's retreating back with deep eyes.
'Ten thousand years of loneliness is too much torture for Her Majesty the Queen, who has already been hurt by love. '
'Although there is some gap in seniority between Sarlayan and the queen, but... looking at the outstanding members of the opposite sex we have seen over the years, this talented man of high elf and dragon race is definitely the one who is most worthy of the queen. '
…
Vashj's matchmaking intentions were well hidden, barely exposed at all. Even Azshara didn't notice the difference, and it was even less likely for Sharlayan and Barrage to notice the love-minded maid's silent thoughts in their hearts. What's planned?
Not only Vashj, but many of Azshara's maids are eager to use a new relationship to wash away the emotional shadow left by the queen ten thousand years ago.
Different from the last time they faced Sargeras' online scam, this time, the maids headed by Vashj planned to personally check and strictly screen every outstanding member of the opposite sex who might win the queen's favor.
Excluding Malfurion Stormrage, who has a completely different stance, celebrities from the elves such as Yin Lidan, Jarod and Kael'thas are also prominently displayed on their secret list.
"Hiss~"
Sarlayan, who was speeding up in the sea, suddenly felt a chill coming from behind, and subconsciously let go of his senses to look behind him.
Found nothing.
"what's the situation?"
The head of Sharlayan's killer whale was full of question marks: "Is it possible that Azshara changed her mind and wanted to take me back?"
[Catch him back and make him your son-in-law? The prince is not a dream. 】
[Nonsense, it’s more like a breeding machine. 】
[As the saying goes, thirty is like a wolf, forty is like a tiger, and fifty is like sitting on the ground sucking dirt. How old is Azshara? At least more than fifteen thousand, right? 】
[Meaning~ It’s terrifying to think about it carefully. A three-thousand-year-old girl is ranked among the immortals. 】
Sarlayan rolled his eyes angrily: "Come on, you LSPs just think about things all day long, can you be more serious?"
[The love between a man and a woman and the reproduction of offspring are important matters of human ethics. How come it is not serious? 】
[Good point, so has your wife given birth? 】
[…If people are tough, I’m still waiting for the country to send me a wife. 】
Sarlayan, who was already close to the sea, was too lazy to pay attention to the barrages that shouted "I and gambling and drug addiction are sworn in".
Nazjatar is located deep under the sea just east of the Maelstrom, not far from the Broken Islands.
Anyway, if you want to go to Kul Tiras, you will pass by the Broken Islands, so Sarlayan, who surfaced, simply took the road to Suramar.
"Oh~ It's really a rare visitor."
Not long after Grand Magister Elisande returned to Suramar from the College of Narthalas in Azsuna, she warmly received Sharlayan in the Tower of Night.
"How come the Marquis of Deep Shadow, who has so many things to do, has time to come to Suramar? Good news or bad news?"
Elisande doesn't believe that Thalayan came to Suramar specifically to maintain relations.
In the past few years of knowing Sarlayan, Elisande has hardly seen him idle. He is running around all year round and is very busy.
Sarlayan smiled bitterly and spread his hands: "I can't come to see you if I have nothing to do?"
"...Okay, I really have something to tell you."
Under Elisande's joking gaze of "Sure enough," Sarlayan said helplessly: "I just came out of Nazjatar and reached an agreement with Queen Azshara related to Suramar. By the way, Come and inform you.”
Upon hearing the name Azshara, Elisande immediately put away the smile on his face, and his expression became extremely solemn.
"Queen Azshara? How dare you go to see her alone? Aren't you afraid that Entzos will keep you here regardless of the consequences?"
"Ha~"
Sarlayan smiled meaningfully: "En'Zos? Through this joint operation to repel the Naga, you should have more or less noticed the discordant notes within the Naga, right?"
Elisande's eyes flashed slightly: "So, my guess is correct? Queen Azshara and Enzos had a falling out?"
Sarlayan: "Pretty much. Although we haven't officially fallen out with each other yet, we are already strangers."
"The conflict between them was laid down ten thousand years ago when the upper elf fell into the water and was forcibly transformed into a naga. It is only a matter of time before it breaks out."
Elisande nodded with deep understanding, and said with some regret: "I can understand Azshara's mood. After all, there is also a group of Faldorei who have been transformed into ugly spider-men next door."
"That's the crux of the matter."
Sharlayan lightly snapped his fingers: "Azshara has always dreamed of returning to her former night elf form. I made a deal with her about this. This deal involves Druyin, Suramar and The three parties of Quel'Thalas."
Elisande knew that Sarlayan was not someone who made empty promises casually, and asked him seriously: "What exactly is going on? What does Suramar need to pay? What can it get in this transaction?" "
