"Your Majesty, I'm sorry."
"No need to apologize, this is not your fault."
"I am very……"
"Go down and do your job and don't expect any words of comfort from me."
"As commanded."
Broken Draenor, the Dark Portal has been repaired, and the Stairway of Destiny has been rebuilt. From Hellfire Citadel to Mag'har Heights, and then to the Honor Keep being renovated, the Iron King has completed substantial control over this territory. .
However, fire prevention and theft prevention cannot prevent stowaways who go out just to re-enter.
For this reason, the King of Steel has no choice but to guard the country...
"So we're just going to stand here and have fun?"
Seeing the guards leaving, Aegwynn removed his invisibility and asked.
"I can arrange a chair for you when you get tired of standing."
The King of Steel stared at the never-ending magical vortex of the Dark Portal, and spoke words that were too frivolous for a lady in the most concerned tone.
"Ha, take off your anti-magic armor and let me teach you the true meaning of magic duel!"
"I'm sorry for hurting your boring self-esteem, but equipment is also part of strength. I thought you understood."
"So you'd rather make a joke than say something useful?"
"……not the right time yet."
"when?"
"Find the other half of the planet."
"..."
After all, she could not withstand the temptation of the unknown. Magna Aegwynn accepted the invitation of the King of Steel and left Azeroth for Outland.
But the Riddler's law of repulsion determines that the two old Riddlers are incompatible.
Especially the advance payment from the King of Steel made Aegwynn unable to bear to leave.
Maybe I should change the word, return.
The Great Barrier of Azeroth is exclusive. Aegwynn was not sure whether she would be rejected by the world like her son if she really left the world of Azeroth, so she separated herself and only sent one half of her body to the appointment. The other half stayed with the magical girl Jaina.
"I'm tired of your perfunctory behavior. If there's nothing else, let's end this boring guessing game. I want to go home."
Aegwin threatened to leave, but the King of Steel made no move to stay.
"This is your freedom. I said it. I gave it to you as a meeting gift before. But it's not the time yet. You won't lose anything if I leave now. It just has nothing to do with you in the future."
After all, he is the old Riddler, and Aegwynn understands the subtext of the Iron King.
"So it's something to do with He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named?"
"The incomplete Draenor cannot bear my grand and almost arrogant plan. The premise of everything is to find the other half of the planet. Otherwise, no matter how many intrigues and intrigues on the other side of the Dark Portal, it will be nothing more than children's play. Family fun."
"Ha, where are your 300 million troops?"
"Ha, look at this endless starry sky."
Aegwynn gave up and was not in a hurry to fight for the right to speak. She was sure that her opponent was also a perennial stick figure, and it was too tiring to talk like this.
"So what is the difference between your Carlos and the Carlos on the other side of the door? As long as you are willing, it is not difficult to unify all time flows in Azeroth. Why do you want to bet on the other side of the door?"
"Because if you miss something, you just miss it and you can never get it back."
"Strength, power, and even faith, you already have it all. Youth, the past, even immortality, there is nothing that cannot be recovered."
Aegwynn dismissed the Iron King's sentiments.
"So you are not as good as your son."
"Which one are you referring to?"
"That one can't come back."
"Why?"
"Because in a sense, he recommended you to me."
Aegwynn frowned.
It was too much information and she needed a moment to think about it.
As the guardian of Azeroth for eight hundred years, it is impossible for Aegwynn not to study the bronze dragon and the flow of time.
But it wasn't until the Great Barrier of Azeroth was broken that the former guardian realized that the biggest secret of Azeroth was not the power of the Titans left behind by the Creator at all, but the sky that had been covered by the Moon God for tens of thousands of years.
Think about it, the Exodar will fall in every time stream, but there is only one Exodar. Archimonde will return to digital Azeroth, and some time streams will be destroyed as a result. But Archimonde will eventually die under the World Tree.
This is the reality of despair that is horrifying for mortals to contemplate.
For the true God, the past, present, and future are meaningless. Time is just a tool in their hands.
This is the truth of the node event, just an anchor.
"So what's the difference between you and Carlos on the other side of the door?"
"He comes first, then I."
"I mean...you know."
"I was once disappointed and lost all direction..."
“Speak well and don’t sing.
"Some things, once missed, are lost."
"I told you not to sing..."
Aegwynn was stunned for a moment, and she understood again.
But before the conversation between the two could continue, a figure appeared from the dark door.
"What a long-awaited reunion. My dear teacher, it seems that you have escaped the prison of time. So, do you want to join my legion?"
Being ignored by the will-o'-the-wisp girl in front of him, the King of Steel was not angry, but tilted his head and asked.
"Are you familiar?"
"No, but I can guess it by looking at the shape."
The King of Steel and the former Guardian whispered "Lich King Jaina" in unison.
Words are useless, only the most ruthless fighting remains.
As the strongest Lich King in all world lines, there is only one reason for Jaina's defeat.
ignorance.
Aegwin, who has recovered a certain amount of magic power, and the King of Steel, who has super magic power but is equipped with a melee unit, join forces to trick her. There is no reason why she should not lose.
After forcing Lich King Jaina back to the other side of the Dark Portal, the King of Steel pretended to touch his empty forehead and waved his hand.
"I don't know what good guys will show up in the coming days."
"So you're going to stay here all the time?"
"I almost put up with everything, I can't afford to lose."
"Then come on, I'm going to rest."
Aegwynn's departure did not cause the Iron King to stay.
After all, Aegwynn is just a collaborator, and the King of Steel is now the dealer.
For gods, not only time is meaningless, but even space is meaningless.
Aegwynn is the old Riddler, but the King of Steel is not.
He actually answered all the questions of his collaborators, but he lacked all the "necessary" basic knowledge, which Aegwin can't understand at the moment.
After the great barrier of Azeroth was broken, countless detached people hoped to become the unique winner. The King of Steel was just a fish out of the water, and could not see much further than others.
He just mastered the other side of the Dark Portal in advance and gained an advantage.
