"Eye of Truth, was what Kael'thas said true?"

[Analysis: This device cannot detect the mental thought activities of other individuals.] [Conclusion: Unable to determine authenticity.]

The Eye of Truth was not omnipotent. At the very least, it could not be used for mind-reading.

After leaving the Sun Tower, Orendo ran into his mentor, Solarian, near the entrance.

"How did it go?" Solarian asked with concern as she looked at her somewhat troubled student.

"Let's leave here first." Orendo noticed Rommath, Passarane, and several other elven advisors still watching from afar.

Solarian nodded.

Only after returning to Solarian's mage tower did Orendo tell her part of what Kael'thas had said to him.

"His Highness wants to teach you the power of the Spellbreakers?" Solarian asked in surprise after hearing him out.

Orendo shrugged. "That's what he said. Do you think it could be true? Even though I'm not an elf, I know what Spellbreakers mean to Quel'Thalas."

Solarian did not answer immediately. She seemed lost in thought. Orendo did not disturb her either. He trusted that his aunt would not harm him, even if she was an unquestionable supporter of the elven king.

After a while, Solarian seemed to have figured something out before speaking again. "If it were someone else, there's more than a fifty percent chance that Prince Kael'thas would be lying. But if it's you, and it's the power of the Spellbreakers... it isn't impossible."

Orendo frowned. "Why? Because my mother is his cousin? Because I have half the blood of the Sunstrider family? If we're looking at that, I'm actually closer to the human side. After all, my father's family is human, I studied in Dalaran, and I'm also a noble among humans."

"What you say isn't entirely wrong." Solarian hesitated, then shook her head. "But if it's you, obtaining the power of the Spellbreakers isn't impossible."

Orendo did not know why his mentor was so certain of this. He asked again, "Can you tell me the specific reason, dear Solarian?"

Hearing him call her by name instead of mentor, and even add "dear" before it, Solarian could not help but feel her face grow warm.

"The reason... has something to do with your mother," Solarian said.

That night.

Orendo returned to the laboratory in his small castle fortress.

While Aegwynn was in Dalaran, he did not dare spend the night outside! If he had weak teeth, he needed to be aware of it. Living off a woman was not so easy!

The first floor of the small castle had now been converted into a printing factory and the office of The Secrets of Severosa.

On ordinary days, it was mainly used by Orendo, Kel'Thuzad, and Ansirem Ruin. Antonidas's two outstanding disciples were employees hired by Orendo.

Nielas Aran came by occasionally, but he always left soon afterward. This son of a great noble family from the South had come to Dalaran less to study than to persuade people to develop in Stormwind.

Aran's main focus in Dalaran had always been attracting investment and talent to Stormwind, as well as bringing in all kinds of magical tomes and knowledge.

It was already night, so naturally there was no one left in the editorial office of The Secrets of Severosa. Only several arcane elementals responsible for printing were patrolling and conducting maintenance. Nani, the construct Orendo had created not long ago, was their leader.

Nani possessed powerful learning ability and a strong desire to learn. In only a few days, she had already become capable of serving as the foreman of the printing factory.

Orendo's ultimate plan for her was to make her a mechanical maid for daily life as well as a research assistant. In the future, he hoped to leave simple enchanting work, alchemy work, experimental preparations, and similar tasks to Nani.

He rubbed Nani's bald forehead, which had only the touch of metal, as she came over when she saw him return.

Orendo passed the two large arcane elementals responsible for guarding the area and headed upstairs.

The second floor and above were restricted areas. Only Orendo could go up there; Kel'Thuzad and the others were not allowed. The arcane elementals responsible for guarding the place were not the weaklings Orendo summoned, but more powerful purple fatties—Aegwynn's summons.

The second floor contained Orendo's storage room, laboratory, workshop, and private library.

The third floor and above held Orendo and Aegwynn's bedrooms, as well as a private sitting room. Naturally, their bedrooms were separate, one for each of them. The private sitting room was what they shared.

In the private sitting room on the third floor, he saw his mentor as he had hoped, along with an unexpected guest.

Orendo saw Aegwynn lounging in a recliner, reading a book. The recliner had naturally been made by Orendo and looked no different from the ones on Earth.

Not far from Aegwynn's recliner, a figure lay motionless on the floor, tightly bound by bright, dazzling violet chains of arcane energy.

Hmm... another time dragon causing trouble? During the many attacks by Infinite Dragons and Bronze Dragons, quite a few had been caught by Aegwynn like this. Chromie and Romi'ko, for example... If Orendo had not pleaded for them, they would probably have devoted themselves wholeheartedly to the great cause of the time dragons in this timeline.

Having seen what happened to the time dragons before, Orendo assumed that another clueless time dragon had come knocking and been captured by Aegwynn.

He raised an eyebrow and walked over.

Without even looking at the fellow on the floor glaring up at him, he stepped past them and went straight behind his mentor. Swiftly placing both hands on her shoulders, he began massaging her.

"Mmm..." The Guardian naturally knew he had returned. After he massaged her a few times, she let out a pleased moan.

Orendo's hands immediately wanted to start climbing mountains—Mount Hyjal, to be precise...

But there was still an eyesore on the floor. Orendo felt that if his hands started mountain-climbing now, Aegwynn would probably zap him again.

"Mentor." Orendo deliberately lowered himself, bringing his lips close to Aegwynn's ear and blowing softly. "Who's that? A new prey you caught? An Infinite Dragon or a Bronze Dragon?"

[The host has been detected as greatly desiring reproductive activity with Female No. 1. Would you like this device to activate the positions for reproductive postures...]

The Eye of Truth appeared at the worst possible moment.

"No."

He wanted to, but she had to be willing!

"It took quite some effort to catch her. She isn't a time dragon. She's a green dragon." Feeling very comfortable under the massage, Aegwynn turned her head. Her lips were less than two centimeters from Orendo's face, leaving them almost cheek to cheek.

The rich feminine fragrance on his mentor made little Orendo instantly stir!

Wait?

A green dragon?

Orendo looked toward the pitiful figure on the floor. She was a female who looked both like a night elf and a high elf.

She was actually a green dragon.
