Chapter 44 - Loss

…………

He has not encountered such a setback since the defeat of the Lich King. Apart from anger and pain, Nathanos could not find a suitable word to describe his state of mind at this moment. The three Wagris died, and the Withered Ones could not feel their existence. This was a major loss for the Forgotten One, but not the only one. He wanted to stand up, so he instinctively wanted to support the body lying flat on the ground with his hands. His right hand responded to him, but the left arm brought a biting pain and sense of nothingness. Nathanos was shocked and turned his head with gritted teeth. No matter how much he hoped that his guess was wrong, what had happened could not be restored. His left arm disappeared, and his armor was shattered by the explosion just now.

"This... cannot!" His eyes widened to the maximum, and his mouth was filled with blurred words, trying to vent his anger.

"You are seriously injured, Master." The existing Wagri quickly gathered beside Nathanos, speaking with Kira.

"Where is her?" The Valkyrie couldn't tell whether the Withered One was asking Alextsa or the Wings of Death. So she replied, "The female orc is dead, and the Swearing Bonder of Life is fine."

As he was speaking, Alextsa, who looked like a female elf, staggered over. When her arm dripped with bright red blood, many lush plants were breaking out of the ground. The figure of the Red Dragon Queen made the Withered Regain calm in a short time. Even he himself was secretly surprised by this strange change, and it seemed that he cared about Alextsa and was worried about her safety. Nathanos told himself that he just didn't want something to happen to the Red Dragon Queen in the Forgotten Land.

"You are seriously injured." The Swooist of Life could not believe that he would greet a dead soul in such a gentle tone, but the other party had just saved his life. She bent down and gently stroked Nathanos's arm where it was originally.

Nathanos did not accuse Alextasa of attracting Deathwings here. Who could predict the tricks of the Black Dragon King? He just lamented the gap between himself and the guardian dragon. The Black Dragon King himself did not come, but occupied the body of a poor worm, and that only seriously injured the Forgotten leader.

Never, never let the forgotten face such an enemy again. He swears.

"You all retreat and go to watch around." Nathanos said to the remaining Wagrims, struggling to stand up. Alextasa realized that Nathanos had something to say to her, although it might not be what he wanted to hear.

"The red dragon does not kill life, but it also sits and watches life disappear."

Alextassa was surprised. She expressed her confusion at Nathanos's words, and even a little angry. The dark power of the Withered One surrounded him and helped him relieve his pain when he came. Then he explained his words: "Where are you when the old tribes invaded this world with evil powers in an attempt to destroy the civilization that originally stood on this land?" A strange look flashed across the face of the Red Dragon Queen. "When the disaster spirits swept across Lordaeron, destroyed Dalaran, and polluted Quelthalas, you did not stand up to fight against evil. You just watched coldly, fearing and regretting the mistakes made in the past. When someone begged for your help, your excuse was that the dragon clan never interfered in the affairs of mortals."

"It's not like that." Alextasa shook her head, but Nathanos's words made her question question the responsibility of protecting the dragons in a trance, only for a moment. "We all have our own dilemma, and every guardian is fighting invisible enemies, and even... one has fallen, and the other has gone crazy."

"Invisible enemy." Nathanos agreed with this statement. At this moment, he thought of Nozdom. The enemy that the Bronze Dragon King could not see was him, a person who walked outside everyone's vision and caused huge changes in the history of this world. "Then do you want to take on the responsibility of protecting the dragon?"

This question reminded Alextasa of the face of Titan Aional, an existence that Nathanos had never seen before. "Of course." The Red Dragon Queen nodded, "The Titans think I have the ability to take on the heavy responsibility, and they trust me."

"So you trust life too? Unfortunately, life played a big joke on some people." Nathanos's only remaining hand had not touched the frost and sad wound on his body for many years. "And not everyone chose to believe it. One of your fellow races has been chasing me in time and space, trying to eliminate me and change my uncontrollable history."

The Swallow-Bindinger of Life realized that Nathanos was talking about Nozdom. The King of Time has often disappeared recently, and even some regular meetings have not attended. He always said that he could no longer see the past and the future, and everything that he once clearly saw has become chaotic.

Was this man caused it? Alextasa was in a dilemma. Protecting time is not the mission of the Red Dragon, but now the Dragon Mile Alliance is no longer fighting each other. They face any difficulties together. If Nozdom is really troubled by this mortal, should he help him solve this problem - Nathanos Withered is very weak now.

The Swoogbinder of Life has been thinking for a long time, and finally, she finally came to a difficult realization: in order to protect this world, any huge price must be borne.

“In order to protect life, sometimes you have to sacrifice others…”

Nathanos almost penetrated her thoughts, and one sentence made the Red Dragon Queen chill. She stared into Nathanos' eyes, and the other party seemed to say: Get it done quickly, I'm here.

The ridiculous thought in my heart was strangled by Alextasa, and the sacred duty given by the Titans should not have the word "sacrifice". No one is worth sacrificing, and everyone is equal.

"I hope you can rethink my advice, The Wither."

A trace of surprise appeared on Nathanos's face, and he quickly covered it up, "My answer will not change. Go and leave my territory."

The Swooist Swallowed heavily. Her wounds had healed without realizing it. "I'm sorry you would say that." A guardian dragon with dignified and majestic body covered with crystal red scales appeared in front of Nathanos in an instant. Her spreading wings blocked Nathanos's entire sight. When Alextasa spoke again, she had turned into a dot in the horizon.

"The Red Dragon Legion thanks for your help."

Nathanos watched her drift away and disappeared into the dark clouds. The dark clouds were boundless, and wherever they reached, completely enveloped Arachi.

Wagri slowly landed beside the Withered, Kira asked in confusion: "We have been waiting for your signal, Master, but you... have not given an order."
