After a brief conversation, Arthas also invited Ilucia to share a sumptuous dinner.
However, until he left the palace and returned to his residence, Ilucia's brain was basically in a state of shutdown.
She picked up a glass of water, but when she lowered her head, she discovered that there were circles of ripples in the water glass.
Just like her state of mind, she couldn't calm down at all.
The conversation with the prince allowed her to obtain shocking news in just a few minutes - the master of the Scourge and the crown prince of Lordaeron were the same person.
this……
Ilucia drank all the water in the cup and looked at herself in the mirror with a bitter smile.
"Ilucia? Have you already met His Majesty?" The voice of Dark Dean Gading came into Ilucia's mind at this time.
After hearing Gadin's words, Ilucia was stunned for half a second before asking.
"Have you known this for a long time? Why didn't you tell me? It turns out that this glorious prince of Lordaeron, admired and praised by the world, is actually the master of the Scourge of the Undead?"
There was also a rare moment of silence on the Gading side, "His Majesty has told you?...Forget it, this is not a big problem, but you have to be careful. Sometimes knowing too much is not a good thing."
For Ilucia, it is naturally impossible for Gadin to have any mercy or sympathy, otherwise he would not become a ruthless master of the undead.
However, if Arthas told Ilucia about his side as the Lich King, then Gadin's view and vision of Ilucia would change.
Before, he only thought that Ilucia was a puppet used to control and restrict the Barov family, but Arthas now let Ilucia know part of the truth, which also showed that the status of this chess piece had also risen.
However, for a young human who has only had a superficial exposure to the magical field and does not know the dark truth of this world, this may not be a good thing.
After thinking briefly, Gadin immediately stopped his thoughts. The master of the Scourge of the Undead, Lich King Arthas, had the ability to monitor the thoughts of each of his subordinates, but he did not do so.
Since Arthas believes that Ilucia is capable, then even if Ilucia is not qualified now, Dark Dean Gadin must help Ilucia develop her abilities.
Thinking about it this way, Gading felt a little helpless: How did he feel that he had changed from a dark, mysterious and evil wizard to a master of baby care?
"What mission has His Majesty given you? I suggest you not to hide anything. Now that you know everything, you should know that we are actually grasshoppers on a rope." Gading asked about the specific incident.
Ilucia has temporarily recovered from the brink of collapse. She has given up on escaping from the undead natural disaster, because even if she escapes the natural disaster, she still has to rely on human society to exist, and the future king of Lordaeron is still Barov's fate can be manipulated at will.
"His Royal Highness, he wants me to be the new king of Alterac."
Gading, who was sitting in the dean's office, frowned. He immediately understood that this was not a good position, but a hot potato that could not be safely handed over to anyone.
But then I thought about it. The Barov family, which openly had a grudge against Lordaeron but was secretly firmly controlled by Arthas, was indeed a very advantageous choice.
If the Barov family wanted to rebuild Alterac and take power themselves, except for the remnants of the Alterac nobles organized by the Syndicate, the other human kingdoms would have no reason to oppose.
In other words, except for the Kingdom of Stormwind, Kul Tiras and Dalaran, the other human kingdoms are definitely not willing to see an Alterac king who is close to Lordaeron.
Five of the seven human kingdoms are on the continent of Lordaeron. Except for the destroyed Alterac and the neutral Dalaran, the other two absolutely do not want to see Lordaeron become too powerful.
However, Gilneas has withdrawn from the Alliance to prevent Tenaris from dragging them down with the expense of orc asylums.
As for Stromgard in the south... According to rumors from Gardin's personnel stationed in Stromgarde, Garin Trollbane, the son of King Thoras Trollbane, seems to have some bad ideas about the throne. .
I'm afraid it won't be long before we know how things will develop.
In the more than ten years after the Second War, Stromgarde has never recovered from the trauma it suffered, and the damage suffered by their capital, Stromgarde, may not be much less than that of Stormwind City.
In fact, because the kingdom was in a long period of emptiness after the war and was harassed by trolls and ogres all year round, the nobles of Alterac turned their attention to this ancient city.
What they think is that we can't control Lordaeron, but we can think of ways to mess with you, Stromgarde, who is strong on the outside and hard on the inside.
After all, the noble remnants of Alterac hate not only Lordaeron, but also the entire Alliance. As long as there is an opportunity to weaken the Alliance's strength, they will definitely come around like flies that find a crack in an eggshell.
As time went by, Stromgarde not only failed to recover, but became even weaker than when the war just ended. In addition, the barren land of Arathi Highlands made it difficult for Stromgarde to maintain sufficient harvests. The internal control of the king within Stromgarde Resentment also gradually increased.
Under the brainwashing of the Syndicate, many people began to complain that Solas should not have taken the initiative to help the Alliance back then, but should have chosen to stay behind closed doors. Anyway, the Arathi Highlands were very barren, and those orcs would not stay here for a long time.
Common people would have such thoughts, and those nobles who had ulterior motives were even more dissatisfied with Solas' behavior. They began to find ways to impeach Solas, using various excuses and reasons to make Solas I have been held back by the messy paperwork all day long.
Although Solas was an iron-blooded and ruthless monarch when dealing with his enemies, he was reluctant to take action when faced with the internal problems of his country. Perhaps he believed that he owed his people too much.
In this way, Stromgarde spent one spring and autumn in various political games and whirlpools. At the beginning, the Alliance provided some symbolic help to Stromgarde, but these aids were divided up by those greedy nobles. Everything is gone, and very few of them end up in the hands of civilians.
Over time, Tenaris, a human spirit, no longer wanted to care about the mess of Stromgarde. He believed that sooner or later, Solas would carry out a major cleansing of Stromgarde, and no matter how much money was invested in Stromgard now, Manpower and material resources are just a waste.
However, there is one thing Gading still has doubts about. Although Arthas is a prince, he has rarely been involved in the alliance's political games before. He has only continued to strengthen and consolidate the internal affairs of Lordaeron. Why has he suddenly turned his attention to the alliance? Alterac is in ruins.
Dean Dark pondered for a moment, and he suddenly felt that this might be a signal, that is, Lordaeron's strong intervention to reshuffle the forces of the entire Lordaeron continent.
