Chapter 89 - Deception
…………
"Oh! It was wonderful, but it ended too quickly." Bwonsamdi looked a little regretful, and he pointed at Zulkin. A ray of soul floated out of the troll's body and into his palm.
"I told you earlier, you might as well surrender to death then!"
The god of death turned his gaze to Nathanos below. When he won, the barrier shattered like glass. Now only the two of them were left. Nathanos was not sure whether Bwonsamdi would take it away like he did to Zul'jin.
His own soul, but he would never let this happen.
"Are you going to take my soul next?"
"It depends on my mood." Bwonsamdi grinned. It seemed that he was in a good mood or was interested in Nathanos.
So, what exactly does he want to do?
"If you are not my enemy, then don't beat around the bush and just tell me what you are going to do! If you want to kill me, you'd better do it now."
"Speaking like this in front of the God of Death has proven your courage. But I will not kill you. The Loa God has always respected the strong. You defeated Zujin, so you can leave alive."
The moon rose to its highest point, and Nathanos suddenly discovered that there was no shadow under Bwonsamdi's feet. Was he just a fantasy?
"You don't exist, right? Or, you're not here at all. What's in front of me now is just a scary shadow."
He puffed up his chest and despised Bwonsamdi's teasing. He would do his best to resist those who tried to control his destiny. When he firmly strengthened this belief, Bwonsamdi's influence on him instantly diminished a lot.
"Hahaha...! As a ranger, your reaction ability is too weak. It seems that my identity scares you and makes you slow, right? You must be thinking about the relationship between me and the Lich King.
But I also told you that the person who turned you into this is my sworn enemy."
"I am also at odds with him. One day, I will destroy him!"
Bwonsamdi disappeared before Nathanos' eyes, then suddenly reappeared behind him.
"Then what are you doing here? Are you seeking revenge against the Lich King now?"
The feeling of being exposed was uncomfortable, and Nathanos hoped that what he wanted to do would not be hindered by Bwonsamdi.
"There's something I have to do!"
The other party smiled, and his laughter spurred Nathanos's soul. "If your mother were here, I would really let her listen to what her son is saying. He has always emphasized that he wants revenge, but at this time
But she is looking for mercy and recognition from the living. How did she raise such a filial and innocent son?"
"I don't need you to remind me what to do. I know what I want. I just want to..."
"Redeemed?"
"I will!"
"Enough things to make me laugh today!"
Nathanos gritted his teeth angrily. Bwonsamdi had faced many mortals and was used to their rudeness. Anger was like the temper of a child in his eyes, and he always responded with disdain and teasing expressions.
They. This made Nathanos very angry: "Don't treat everything with such a condescending attitude as your gods, Bwonsamdi. You are not the master of this world."
"Life and death are opposites, and death is irreversible."
"That's enough!" Nathanos fired an arrow at Bwonsamdi. In an instant, Bwonsamdi's image disappeared without a trace. But Nathanos always felt that he could still hear his laughter.
Sure enough, those in charge of death are abominable monsters!
Just when Nathanos was frightened and angry because of Bwonsamdi's vicious words and arrogant attitude, he heard extremely fast and light footsteps.
"Are there any enemies?" The human picked up Quel'Delar that fell on the ground. The conflict with the troll just now did cause a lot of noise, but fortunately there was only one person on the other side. Nathanos wanted to see if there was anyone else.
Who will come here.
"Nathanos!" A female voice called out his name.
No!
The human's eyes widened. Panic destroyed all his preparations for the enemy. Running towards this side was a cloaked woman, and something in her voice quickly stopped him. His name became an expulsion order,
Just by saying this word from the visitor's mouth, there was only one thought that emerged from his subconscious: escape.
Why run away? Nathanos himself wants to know the answer to the question. She is not Alleria, she is not, what am I afraid of?
"Nathanos!" She said again, this time her throat was almost torn.
He stopped, and it was not until this moment that he realized that he had put a long distance away from Taquelin. When he turned around, he was looking directly into the female elf's eyes.
The Moon Lady's soft light illuminated her elven face. The smooth, vibrant skin had a hint of paleness, and Nathanos knew it was just a visual effect. When he realized that Sylvanas was still alive, he felt something
Joy. But joy soon gave way to her worried and helpless look.
His eyes drifted down to his twisted fingers. The mottled skin was still stained with blood from his battle with the trolls. The surge of shame diluted his excitement of reuniting with Sylvanas. When he thought of her,
Seeing him like this, like a nightmare, made him feel sick. He involuntarily raised his arms to cover his gray face.
'Maybe I should look at her attitude towards me.'
Life and death are opposites!
Nathanos shook his head, driving Bwonsamdi's voice out of his mind.
"Sylvanas."
The female elf was still panting, and it only took a short while to recover. She pulled down her hood and wanted to speak several times, but when she saw Nathanos's scarlet eyes, she was blocked by sadness.
throat.
But what Nathanos is thinking now is: She hasn't attacked me yet, that's good!
"Nathanos!"
She called out the name, but the owner of the name was shocked. Why was it so familiar? Nathanos felt that his heart, which had stopped beating long ago, was about to burst out of his voice.
"Sylvanas!" He couldn't help but say, "Are you here to see my joke? You have seen what I have become, are you going to humiliate me?"
"That's not the case!" The female elf's voice was louder than Nathanos' question. "Why do you want to come back?" Sylvanas asked such a question for some reason, and she immediately realized that Nathanos
Si will get angry immediately.
"Shouldn't I come back? I killed my mother here! I am as dead as this land! Am I going to escape all this?"
Sylvanas waved her hands and shook her head, "Of course not! I mean...she misses you very much! The past you!"
Boom! Thunder echoed in Nathanos's ears. Sylvanas's words reminded him. He looked down at his hands again, which helped him recognize the fact that he was a dead person.
The past you. Nathanos has always thought that "forever" is a scary word, and the word "past" sounds even scarier. It means that he has lost what he once had.
"No! I believe Alleria, she went to find me in Kalimdor."
"But didn't she leave in the end? You didn't see her, did you?" Sylvanas retorted. She was shouting to Nathanos in her heart that I was the one who went to see you. But she couldn't say it out loud.
, she knew that Nathanos still had hope of living, and Alleria was everything to him. If her sister was as willing to accept this human being as she was now... But what if she couldn't accept it? No,
She would definitely accept him. Nathanos saved her life, and she was pregnant with his child. But what would the people of Quel'Thalas think? Alleria had always put duty first, so when Al
When Thass invaded Quel'Thalas, she would fight to the death. If other elves knew that Alleria accepted an undead, the same kind as the Kingdom Destroyer...
...Sylvanas didn't dare to think about it any further.
"How did you know, she told you?"
"She... said it. She only told me." Sylvanas' hesitant look made Nathanos suspicious.
"What did she tell you?"
"In Kalimdor, she met Medivh." Sylvanas began to describe what she experienced from Alleria's perspective.
"The sun has set. You'll be fine. No one can hurt you now. When the sun rises..."
"We will all be safe." Nathanos naturally said the last words he heard in his memory. But why did this sentence make him feel extremely anxious when it came out of Sylvanas's mouth?
Feeling.
"She did tell you, then she..."
"You can't see her."
"Why?" Nathanos asked desperately, doesn't Alleria not want to see him?
"Don't get me wrong, I don't know what Nathanos and Alleria think. But I know now is not the best time for you to meet. You have also seen how much damage Arthas has done to this place. Quel'Sera
Si's condition is getting worse every day, and Alleria can't possibly have time to see you..." Sylvanas explained reluctantly. She was not good at hiding things, especially the truth, but if she couldn't deceive Na
Thanos, she had to use violent means, knock him unconscious when necessary, and then take him away from Quel'Thalas. But the problem was that Sylvanas didn't know whether she could defeat Nathanos.
"A very far-fetched reason." The human responded. The female elf clenched the gorgeous long bow in her hand.
"But I believe her situation must be very difficult." Nathanos closed his eyes, "I can still see her, right?"
Sylvanas breathed a sigh of relief, "Yes, I will definitely tell her after she finishes handling the matters here, and then... you can meet. At least not now."
The human nodded, "I will leave and tell her that I will wait for her at Maris Farm."
The female elf relaxed, and she felt sorry for deceiving Nathanos from the bottom of her heart. But now she really didn't know what Alleria's attitude towards Nathanos was. At least she hadn't had time to test Alleria yet.
Asia's view.
"I can't stay here for too long." Sylvanas remembered that Alleria always needed her help.
"Get out of here. Shorel'aran (see you later)" Sylvanas said and quickly disappeared from Nathanos' sight.
The undead dogs that were scared away by Bwonsamdi now ran out of the trees and returned to him. Nathanos needed them right now.
He knelt down and touched the back of one of the undead dogs with his hand, "She's cheating on me, right? She didn't even notice that she was holding Alleria's weapon." Nathanos' eyes
Lock the direction in which the female elf disappears.
