"I'm finally out of the light of day!"
Within the Tower of Arathor, a person, an energy avatar, and a half-human, half-human hybrid appeared, accompanied by a beam of light.
The alluring female mage at the head of the group glanced at the oldest mage tower in human history for three seconds, muttering under her breath, "Still so shabby," before walking out without lingering. Looking at the dilapidated Stromgarde, still shrouded in a thin wisp of plague, a nostalgic expression appeared on her face. "It's been so many years since I've seen so many people. The human world is so much better! That godforsaken place, the Tomb of Sargeras, I really don't want to go back!"
She completely ignored the two people following behind her, spending a full five minutes tidying her disheveled sideburns, adjusting her mage robes, and then summoning the water mirror to examine herself carefully before nodding in satisfaction. She then put away her staff, lifted her skirt, and walked towards the market, looking like a young girl.
"What's Grandma up to?" Med'an, following behind, was speechless, completely bewildered. "Weren't we supposed to be looking for Meryl and Nicholas? Why did she run off alone? And she was so fierce when she fought, how come she's acting like a little girl now?"
"Shh!"
Anveena looked nervous, a "fearful" expression on her face. Seeing that Aegwynn didn't seem to react, she whispered, "Don't talk nonsense! The teacher's ears are sharp! Have you forgotten how many times you were disciplined at the Hall of the Keeper and the Tomb of Sargeras? Hanged up for three days and three nights without food? Dragged along on a magic carpet with a magic rope? Last time you said she was teaching too fast and not considering our learning progress, she heard you from several kilometers away, and then you copied it for a whole week straight?"
Med'an shuddered!
The thought of those unbearable days sent chills down his spine, from his bones to his heart, and from his heart to his soul!
He had thought that escaping Meryl's clutches and finding himself in his grandmother's warm embrace, learning from the most extraordinary Demigod mage in history, would be a very warm and comforting experience...
And the result?
All that warmth and affection in the books is a lie! And what's performed at the Karazhan Opera House is even more of a lie!
My grandmother couldn't cook, and she made me eat bread and drink water every day. Eventually, I couldn't stand it anymore and had to cook for myself!
Grandma was a terrible teacher; she didn't even know the basics before jumping into teaching Legendary spells. She finally managed to correct her mistake and taught step-by-step for two days, but then she got impatient and simply brought thousands of books from Karazhan to write down for herself to read. She told me to ask questions whenever I didn't understand something, and even gave me a time limit: only three questions a day, and each question couldn't take more than five minutes!
My grandmother is so cruel; she punishes me at the drop of a hat!
My grandmother was too playful; she would make all sorts of things to scare people every day, like a headless knight, a seven-headed demon, thousands of giant rats...
My grandmother is crazy. She'd drag us to Sargeras to spar with demons all the time, and the worst part is she'd just throw us in there while she hid hundreds of meters away, eating the snacks and pastries I made...
Are you really my grandmother?
Are you fake?
Med'an fondly remembers the days he spent with Meryl.
Although those days were already miserable, living with my grandmother would only make them worse!
"Grandma's gone, what are we going to do?" Med'an was speechless and didn't dare to leave the Tower of Arathor. He knew his appearance would cause a commotion, but he really envied the human world outside; its vibrant atmosphere made him yearn for more.
He has one-quarter human blood!
The biggest problem is that he has never lived in human society before, and has never seen so many people. The boldest thing he had ever done before was to sneak a peek at Darkshire from afar while invisible. Now, hearing the lively sounds outside, he doesn't know where to put his hands.
How do I start a conversation with someone?
How do I buy things?
Also, should I bargain when buying things? How much purchasing power does one gold coin actually have?
"It's just a disguise."
"You're not incapable of magic. Don't worry, I'll show you how to play from now on." Anveena didn't care at all. Sensing that familiar presence approaching, a broad smile appeared on her face, "Wait a minute, brother's here!" Brother?
Med'an was slightly taken aback, then realized. " Nicholas is here?"
A few seconds later, a figure came from afar, and like Lightning, arrived in front of Anveena in an instant.
"Brother, I missed you so much!" Anveena threw herself into Jiang Jie's arms.
"Long time no see, Anveena. Your brother missed you too, especially during that great battle not long ago."
Jiang Jie smiled, hugged her for a full minute before letting go, and then asked, "Why did it take you so long to arrive? I had Master Meryl send you a message a month ago."
Anveena didn't want to leave Jiang Jie's embrace at all, clinging to his arm and saying, "Our teacher took us to the Tomb of Sargeras for trials, saying that Sargeras had been disturbed and many demons had bred inside, rendering many defensive barriers ineffective. She wanted us to kill those demons so she could repair them. We only returned to the Hall of the Keeper a week ago. Teacher Aegwynn saw Master Meryl's message, drew a circle, and saw your situation here. She said that since the war was over, there was no rush to go. Later, Med'an and I begged her until she brought us here."
Relentless pursuit? How can you pursue or pursue someone relentlessly?
Furthermore, the Tomb of Sargeras is a level 110 raid instance. Aegwynn, you went in with only two students? Even if it were you, with your current mana, you're probably not even as strong as Gul'dan or Illidan back then, right? One of them died and the other escaped. Are you sure you could handle them?
Don't drag our Anveena down with you if you're looking for trouble!
Of course, Jiang Jie couldn't comment on his elders, so he looked at Med'an and frowned slightly. "Just the two of you? Where's Ms. Aegwynn? And your mother?"
"After my grandmother removed the evil magic from my mother, she left, saying she was going to cause trouble for the remnants of the Shadow Council. As for my grandmother... she went out on business." Med'an was a little embarrassed. He really couldn't bring himself to say it, given how playful his grandmother was.
Family scandals shouldn't be aired in public!
"The teacher went to play... Hmm, she's buying candy now, a whole bag of it, the kind of colorful candy my brother used to buy me, she paid with a sapphire, I remember that sapphire is worth at least 100 gold coins... Then she went to the clothing store, she's trying on clothes... Okay, she spotted me, glared at me, and then blocked me. I'm doomed, I'm definitely going to get yelled at later!"
Anveena tried to sense everything about Aegwynn with her mental powers, but Aegwynn quickly blocked her. Her little face was full of pain and fear. Clearly, Aegwynn had left a tent-sized shadow in her young mind, a place of utter darkness once inside.
"Ms. Aegwynn is truly... a childlike heart!"
Jiang Jie didn't know how to evaluate it, but it didn't matter anymore; who could control her?
That strongest Keeper lived for over eight hundred years is practically a crazy girl who never grew up!
Of course, he could only say these words in his heart, otherwise it wouldn't be Anveena who would get scolded, but Jiang Jie!
" Med'an, disguise yourself. I'll take you to see Master Meryl." Jiang Jie smiled and led them through the wide streets to the palace.
