Chapter 94: A Drastic Change in History

Garona tilted her head as if pondering the meaning of the word "king."

Llane smiled, "If in your concept, the leader of a faction is a chieftain, then okay. I guess I should be the chieftain of what you understand as the Stormwind Clan."

This time, Garona turned her head to the other side, with a greater look of confusion on her face.

"I can't believe something like that."

Garona's simple and straightforward answer left Llane choking. This time, it was the two bastards, Lothar and Bolvar, who snickered.

Llane quickly examined himself to make sure he looked impeccable. He double-checked that he had no issues with his appearance before asking, "Why not?"

"Because you're weaker than that Anduin, even weaker than the male next to you," Garona pointed at Duke. "Among the tribes of our Horde, only the strongest warriors are fit to be chieftains."

Llane was dumbfounded!

To be fair, as a king who had to deal with countless affairs every day, Llane was strict with himself and trained his skills daily. He dared to say that he could easily defeat the kings of the other six human kingdoms in terms of strength.

Unfortunately, his combat skills could not compare to the current recognized human number one, Lothar.

Duke always believed that if the fierce and powerful first generation paladins that emerged later were stripped of their Holy Light powers, they might not be able to beat Lothar.

Moreover, Lothar was already in his forties, past the age when a warrior was at his strongest. In terms of his peak period, Lothar was still the strongest.

To avoid an awkward topic, Lothar smiled and stepped in to mediate, "As humans, we do not determine who should be your chieftain based solely on strength. If there's time in the future, we'll make sure you understand. For now, shouldn't we discuss the main matter? I heard you brought the body of Khadgar?"

"Oh, yes."

The 'body' of Khadgar, which was still a little warm, was brought in.

Looking at the limp body that was neither stiff nor covered in corpse spots, it was hard to believe that Khadgar was dead. Lothar approached and could even feel the faint breath on his nostrils.

After examining the body, the old court mage beside Llane said, "Khadgar is indeed dead, and his soul is no longer in the hands of the demons."

Lothar could only nod.

At this time, Garona said, "I also brought the testimony of Khadgar before he lost his soul."

"Testimony?"

"Yes, he said that Medivh's body was likely possessed by a demon, and it was Medivh who opened the 'Dark Portal' and brought the orcs to us."

"What!?" exclaimed Llane and Anduin with incredulous expressions. Just as Duke finished suggesting a surprise attack on Karazhan, Garona appeared as a witness?

If they weren't absolutely certain that Khadgar was at Karazhan all along and that Medivh had betrayed them early on, they would almost suspect Duke of killing Khadgar and having a female orc come in as a false witness.

(⊙ _ ⊙; )…Duke said nothing, his expression wooden as he perfectly embodied the term 'wooden man.' As a time traveler, he didn't need to say much. If he couldn't even profit from spoilers, then he would just be a time traveler who knew 'history.'

He was well aware of what Llane and his companions were thinking, but it didn't matter whether they revered him or revered his so-called teacher, the Death God Hua-Jia. After all, he and his apprentice were just one person, and whoever gained fame would be beneficial to Duke.

Right now, all he could think of was how to successfully raid Karazhan and kill Medivh.

As expected, Garona took out some 'evidence' just as Duke had predicted.

It was a book of magic with a strange aura.

The protruding mystical dragon bone ring cover itself emitted a faint arcane energy, the shallow waves spreading like ripples in all directions, forming a delicate cycle that absorbed all the surrounding light and heat back into the magic book, creating a subtle pattern.

More importantly, the aura emanating from the book gave everyone a sense of destiny.

It was a very mystical feeling, as if their future, their every hope, was on this book. However, as soon as they moved away from the book by a meter, they immediately felt nothing.

In this way, the magic book told everyone of its uniqueness.

"This is," the aura emanating from the magic book left even Llane's most trusted court mage deeply moved.

Garona handed the book to a guard, who then presented it to the court mage.

Sure enough, they saw not only information on interstellar travel, but also a lot of records about the 'Dark Portal,' with Khadgar even making annotations with key page numbers.

The elderly court mage pondered for a moment. "The information should be genuine, but my only question now is - Karazhan's library has at least a hundred thousand magic books. How can a mere Khadgar easily find this evidence?"

Garona was at a loss, completely unable to understand these human suspicions. Didn't Khadgar say that as long as he presented this book, the Stormwind chieftain would believe that Medivh was a troublemaker?

At this moment, Duke's voice suddenly rang out.

"Maybe this is the Tirisfal Council's trump card. I don't believe those cunning and crafty folks in the Tirisfal Council were foolish enough to be caught in Medivh's trap even after being warned, without being able to mount any effective resistance."

Both Llane and Anduin looked at Duke in awe. Duke was like a beacon in their destiny, always appearing to guide them whenever they were lost.

The court mage nodded. "That's very likely. Because according to the information I've received, Medivh appeared with a powerful demon at Karazhan, and he used the pretext of needing the council's assistance to lure all six members of the council to Karazhan before destroying them. But how can we prove this?"

"Can you show me the magic book?" Duke asked.

Llane nodded slightly.

So, Duke held the huge and heavy magic book and began pacing back and forth. Duke couldn't understand the magic book itself, as it was written in encrypted Elven language, which even 99% of Elves couldn't understand.

He was waiting for an opportunity.

Seemingly by chance, as he paced back and forth, he brought the magic book closer to Khadgar's left arm.

And then, a "miracle" happened.

A mysterious figure in a black robe appeared in front of everyone in the council chamber, waving his hand in the direction of Khadgar and signaling for him to come over. Khadgar's response was to raise his glowing left arm.

The court mage muttered to himself, "That's it! It's the Tirisfal Council's failsafe! Only someone with effective magic from the council could attract their attention like this. Oh, is this Alodi's aura?"

"Alodi?" Llane and Anduin's curiosity was about to explode.
