"Hmm...interesting."

Argus, the home of the Burning Legion.

This once extremely developed planet was already in devastation. The entire planet was corroded by evil energy and was riddled with holes. Only three pieces of land were left that were barely intact.

These three lands are Krokuun, Mac'Aree, and the Antoran Wasteland where the Burning Throne of Antorus is located.

When Sarlayan left the Shadow Realm and returned to Azeroth, the souls of the nathrezim who fled back to Argus across the void were intercepted by Kil'jaeden one by one.

Mal'Ganis, who was the first to return, could no longer look like a human being. Under the soul-searching spell Kil'jaeden deliberately used crudely, Mal'Ganis' soul had already lost its self-awareness.

Kil'jaeden didn't care about this. What interested him was some interesting information he had just found from the memory of Mal'Ganis' soul.

"Shadow Realm... Hehe~ That kid is really energetic. How come you can see his active figure everywhere?"

To put it bluntly, Kil'jaeden really did not expect that Tichondrius's young man had already made a plan to sneak into the Shadow Realm before setting off.

You must know that Kil'jaeden, who had not received the information at that time, did not reveal his hostility towards the Nasrezim clan at all.

Although Sarlayan's activity in the Shadow Realm was somewhat beyond the Deceiver's expectations, from his perspective and that of the entire Burning Legion, the defeat of the traitorous Nasrezim clan was ultimately a good thing.

Regarding this point, Kil'jaeden has been able to basically confirm it through the numerous Nasrezim soul memories returned one after another, and Tichondrius, who is at the end of his rope, can't figure out any tricks.

Kil'jaeden considered taking advantage of Azeroth's lack of troops to launch a surprise attack, but after weighing the pros and cons, he chose to give up as Sharlayan had predicted.

The reason is simple: internal instability.

After all, Nathrezim's betrayal had some impact on the many demonic races under the Burning Legion.

The Nathrezim, known as the Dreadlords, are one of the undisputed elder races of the Burning Legion, having joined the Burning Legion as early as Sargeras founded it.

In Kil'jaeden's notifications to various star fields, the governors everywhere were surprised to learn that the Nathrezim were actually spies sent by the Shadow Realm. Their home planet of Nazretha had been destroyed by Kil'jaeden. Dan took it upon himself to completely annihilate it.

The Burning Legion occupies countless galaxies, and its control over the center of the star field closer to Argus is stronger, but the same cannot be said for those remote galaxies.

Just like the Shivalra who quietly surrendered to the Black Temple, some demons with the same seniority began to whisper secretly, worrying that Kil'jaeden would one day find an excuse to attack them like he did with Nathrezim.

Yes, excuses.

The consuls who were far away from Argus and did not know the full story of the incident did not fully believe the official report of the fraudster. They preferred to believe what they interpreted from the report.

The major factions in the Legion, which were already undercurrent due to Archimonde's death, used this as an excuse to demand that Kil'jaeden produce evidence of Nathrezim's crimes.

Fortunately, Kil'jaeden did have evidence, and Sharlayan sent it to him on his own initiative.

Therefore, although the two sides were hostile, at least at this juncture, Kil'jaeden silently praised Sharlayan who was far away in Azeroth.

In order to consolidate his authority, Kil'jaeden made up his mind after a short period of thinking to continue to expand the scope of his attack and put all Nasrezim lurking in the major forces in the universe on the Burning Legion's wanted list. This shows the Legion's uncompromising attitude towards traitors.

"Weilun..."

After crushing Mal'Ganis' useless soul, Kil'jaeden looked at the miniature Azeroth planet model that was still rotating on his desk with twinkling eyes.

"When I deal with the internal problems, I will definitely make you pay for your original betrayal!"

After lowering his head and pondering for a moment, Kil'jaeden said to the secretary waiting outside the office: "Ask Rakish to come see me."

"As you command!"

The corner of Kil'jaeden's mouth raised a strange arc: "It's time to give Velen a surprise. Let's treat it as a warm-up before a full-scale attack on Azeroth."

"but……"

Kil'jaeden frowned and looked in the direction of the hall where the Witch of Destruction Coven belonged: "What on earth is Sargeras doing? He clearly promised to lead the eredar civilization to conquer the entire universe. Could it be..."

It was not a well-kept secret that Sargeras captured the souls of the Titans. At least people of Kil'jaeden's level had heard about it.

To be called a deceiver, Kil'jaeden's intelligence is definitely not low.

Sargeras' unusual persistence in corrupting the Titan's soul made him smell something bad.

"Hmph~" Kil'jaeden had a self-deprecating and sarcastic smile on his face: "Do people who are not of my race have different minds?"

Although I was very unhappy about this, the Eredar civilization, which had long been deeply bound to the Burning Legion, had no way of turning back.

It happened that at this time, Kil'jaeden recalled Velen's reminder and persuasion.

But this did not make the Deceiver regret his original choice, but made him even more jealous of Velen's god-given foresight.

"No matter what Sargeras plans, I will use facts to prove to you that my choice was the right one, and you were the one who was wrong in the first place!"

"Hiss~"

Velen, who was teaching Yrel in New Shattrath City, suddenly felt a chill in his back. His ability to foresee made him feel some kind of deep malice.

Velen's ability to foresee does not take effect at all times, and it is difficult for him to control this natural ability.

During the time the draenei were forced to crash into Draenor, Velen's precognitive abilities never took effect once.

But since leaving Draenor and moving his family to Azeroth, Velen seems to have gotten rid of his bad luck. In recent years, some broken fragments have been seen from time to time.

Velen is tens of thousands of years old. Although as a demigod, he has an immortal lifespan, according to the wear and tear theory proposed by Sarlayan, he has experienced countless hardships, and the symptoms of wear and tear are even as far away as Alexstrasza and other guardian dragons. above.

Although Velen still doesn't understand the new concept of wear and tear, he has always been aware of his mental state. This is the main reason why Velen is busy training Yrel to succeed him.

"prophet?"

Yirel, who was listening to the teachings, immediately noticed that Velen was distracted, which inevitably surprised her. This situation had never happened to Velen during lectures before.

"Huh? Oh, sorry."

At Yrel's call, Velen finally came to his senses, frowning and rubbing his temples.

"I saw some very broken pictures, and I had a hunch that something bad was approaching me."

"Premonition..."

Yrel did not regard Velen's words as mere illusions and psychological effects, because Velen was a well-known prophet, and his foresight had saved the endangered Draenei more than once.

"Any more specific information?"

Velen shook his head: "No, the picture I saw was more broken than any previous prediction."

If Sharlayan knew the inside story, he would be able to interpret the situation that Velen foresaw to a certain extent.

As the saying goes, it is difficult for a diviner to predict for himself. Once it involves matters related to himself, any kind of prediction and divination will be strongly interfered with.

In Velen's knowledge, all his relatives had already died. Due to the effect of inertial thinking, he did not consider this direction at all.

But in fact, Velen's son is actually still alive...although not living well.

He forgot his original name and his parents, and was transformed by Kil'jaeden, who hated Velen, into an executioner who only knew killing.

"The Butcher" Rakish, this is the current name of Velen's son.

"Kid, don't worry about me."

Velen has a rich life experience. After noticing the worry and uneasiness on Yrel's face, he quickly straightened his mood, smiled and patted Yrel's shoulder to comfort him: "I have lived long enough. Even if we encounter any difficulties that are difficult to overcome, you, the successor of my mantle, will continue to lead the people forward."

"Now..." Velen's face was full of calm: "I only hope that when that moment really comes, I can still use my last fire of life to illuminate the way forward for the Draenei civilization."

Yirel frowned and persuaded: "Prophet, please don't be so pessimistic."

"You are the spiritual leader who leads the draenei people forward. I am too young to shoulder this important responsibility."

Wei Lun smiled nonchalantly: "Don't belittle yourself. In my opinion, you are already prepared."

Velen's mental state of looking at life and death too plainly made Yrel very uneasy: 'How about you find a time to ask Sharlayan, I always feel that something is not right about the prophet. '(End of chapter)
