Chapter 573: Unexpected Situation
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
In the command center, Archimonde and Kilâjaeden were sitting on high thrones, waiting in boredom, their eyes looking at the entrance from time to time.
Archimonde had grayish-white skin. Although his entire body was full of powerful fel energy and demon aura, he didnât have demon wings behind him. A couple of tentacles hung down from his lower jaw, indicating his former identity as an eredar.
Unlike Archimonde, Kilâjaeden had crimson skin all over his body and a pair of enormous demon wings behind him. His appearance was closer to the traditional demon form.
Under their thrones stood several figures. Three of them were nathrezim dreadlords with pale skin like corpses and a pair of long demon horns on their heads. These gloomy and cunning dreadlords had similar forms. If not for the different colors of the armor they were wearing, it would be difficult for outsiders to distinguish them. At this moment, they were standing with their arms crossed silently, communicating with each other with uncertain eyes from time to time.
Standing beside the three dreadlords were two female eredar demons. Male eredar usually had beard-like tentacles on their lower jaws, while females didnât have similar organs. These two female eredar demons had impressive figures. One of them had dark purple skin, and the other was dark red. Their demon horns were curved behind their heads like sheep horns.
There was another figure, a female demon in human form. She was very tall, and her clothes were very revealing. Her face was covered by a thin veil, and her thin clothes barely covered her vital parts, revealing a large expanse of white skin that looked very attractive. But this female demon in human form had three pairs of arms.
When Roy brought Julia and Benia and followed Hasabel into the command chamber, he saw this scene. Then he recognized everyone in the chamber at first glance.
If nothing unexpected had happened, the three dreadlords were the three leaders of the nathrezim. But Roy couldnât tell who was who.
As for the two female eredar demons, they should be Kilâjaedenâs adjutants, Grand Warlock Alythess and Lady Sacrolash, the famous twins in the Warcraft worldâŠ
As for the six-armed female demon, she should be a priestess of the Coven of Shivarra, but he didnât know which one.
Mygoodness, most of the commanders of the Burning Legion are hereâŠ
It was not surprising that Roy recognized them at a glance. What was surprising was that after seeing Royâs appearance, Archimonde and Kilâjaeden suddenly stood up from their thrones and looked at him in surprise. Below the throne, the expressionless three leaders of the dreadlords also revealed surprised expressions. Although they quickly hid it, Roy still saw it.
After Hasabel led Roy and the others into the chamber, she was about to report to Archimonde and Kilâjaeden when she heard the two commanders standing up in surprise. âOsiris?! Why is it you?!â
Hearing this shout, even Roy was stunned!
Whatâs going on?! Tm certain that this is the first time Iâve seen Archimonde and Kilâjaeden, but why do these two know my name?And from the looks ofit, theyre obviously very familiar with meâŠ
The situation at the scene was beyond Royâs expectations. Although he was full of doubts, he wisely didnât say anything. He maintained his cold expression and looked at the two of them without saying a word.
Archimonde and Kilâjaeden looked at each other and walked down the tall steps together. They had only maintained the size of ordinary eredar before, but as they walked down, their bodies grew bigger. When they arrived in front of Roy, they were about the same height as him.
âOsiris, where have you been all these years?â Archimonde was impatient and asked, âDo you know that Lord Sargeras has been ordering us to find you?â
âSargeras? Looking for me?â Roy didnât expect this situation. It seemed that not only did Archimonde and Kilâjaeden know him, but even Sargeras seemed to Imow him.
This inexplicable conversation confused Roy. He really didnât know what was going on, but he acted perfectly and didnât reveal any flaws. He replied to the question just now, âWhy were you looking for me? Am I not here?â
Kilâjaedenâs thoughts were deeper. When Archimonde was talking to Roy just now, he hadnât said anything and only observed Royâs reaction from the side. Now that he heard what Roy said, he sized him up and then looked at Julia and Benia, who had been following behind Roy. He nodded imperceptibly, seemingly confirming that Royâs identity was not fake. Then he asked, âOsiris, you and your people have disappeared for thousands of years. Whatâs going on? The Legion has been searching for traces of you in various worlds but found nothing. Now, you suddenly appeared?â
âWell, itâs a long storyâŠâ Roy pretended to shake his head and sighed. âIâll explain it to you slowly when I have time. To be honest, I thought you had forgotten about me after not seeing me for so long. The Legion is no longer the same as before. There are many people I donât know, so I had no choice but to recommend myself to come here.â
Behind them, the three leaders of the dreadlords, who were blocked by the figures of Archimonde and Kilâjaeden, couldnât help looking at each other when they heard this.
Archimonde seemed to accept Royâs explanation and nodded, but Kilâjaeden didnât say anything. After thinking for a while, he said to Roy, âOsiris, youâve been away for so long, and Archimonde and I are now in control of the army. Youâre not familiar with the current situation, so itâs not easy for us to arrange your position for the time being. Now that Lord Sargeras isnât in the Twisting Nether, weâll wait for him to return before making a decision. Take your people to rest first. We still need your help in the Legionâs crusade.â
âAlright, I understand. Things are the same, but the people are different. Letâs leave it at that for now!â Roy nodded expressionlessly. Kilâjaeden ordered Hasabel to find a palace for Roy and his group to rest in. Hasabel didnât understand what was going on, but she realized that this new Demon King Osiris seemed to know the two big shots of the Legion, so she didnât dare to be negligent. She respectfully received the order and led Roy and the others to leave.
After Roy and the others left, there was silence in the command chamber. Finally, the shivarra priestess asked, âLord Archimonde, Lord Kilâjaeden, who is this⊠Osiris?â
Archimonde and Kilâjaeden walked back to their thrones above the steps and sat down before answering, âHe was the third commander of the Burning Legion⊠But that was thousands of years ago!â
âThousands of years ago? Isnât that when the Legion was just formed?â The shivarra priestess was surprised. âWhy have we never heard of his existence?â
However, Archimonde and Kilâjaeden were unwilling to say anything else. Archimonde berated, âShut up! You will know what you should know, and you shouldnât ask about what you shouldnât know!â
The shivarra priestess trembled and replied respectfully, âYes!â
The Eredar Twins didnât say anything from beginning to end. They were smarter and could tell that Archimonde and Kilâjaeden were not in a good mood, so they tactfully treated themselves as invisible.
The three leaders of the dreadlords didnât say anything, but the silent exchanges between their eyes became more and more frequent. As for what they were communicating about, only they themselves knewâŠ
While leaving the command center and following Hasabel to the residence, Julia and Benia didnât say anything. They only sat on Fat Tigerâs back and followed quietly. Roy acted as though nothing had happened and continued to communicate with Hasabel about the landscape of Argus
When they finally arrived at the residence and Hasabel left, Julia and Benia asked Roy anxiously through soul transmission, âDarling, what happened just now? Why do those two eredar demons know you?â
âI donât know either!â Roy stroked his demon horns thoughtfully as he paced back and forth in the residence. âTo be honest, this situation is a little beyond my expectations. From what Kilâjaeden said, I roughly deduced some of the situation. It seems that when they knew me, I was on equal footing with them, and I was also one of the commanders of the Burning LegionâŠâ âBut didnât we just enter this world?â Benia asked doubtfully.
âSo thereâs only one explanationâŠâ Roy turned around to look at the two of them, his eyes flickering. âTime has changed⊠Because something happened, we might have gone backward in the River of Time. Otherwise, thereâs no way to explain the current situationâŠâ
Julia and Benia looked at each other and asked in puzzlement, âDidnât Her
Majesty Lilith say that time canât be reversed?â
âItâs not that itâs impossible to reverse the flow of time. Itâs just that Lilith isnât willing to do itâŠâ Roy replied after some thought. âAfter returning to the Deadly Sin level, Lilith didnât show her power of time, but I think she can definitely reverse the flow of time at the Deadly Sin level. But she herself said that interfering with history will cause too many variables in the future. In order to ensure that she can successfully achieve her goals, she rarely interferes with history!
âBesides, the person who did this might not necessarily be Lilith!â Roy said. âPerhaps with her strength, she can quietly change the time we entered this world, but she has no reason to do so⊠The feather he left me has never been activated, so I donât think itâs Lilith who changed our time but someone else! â âIs there anyone else who can do this?â Julia asked in surprise.
Royâs eyes flickered, and a smirk appeared on his face. âOf course. Moreover, I know the name of that person⊠or rather, that fellow!â
Nozdormu! Roy could only think of this fellow, this leader of the bronze dragonflight who knew how to play with time! It seemed like he would likely make a trip to Azeroth next.
Moreover, it would most likely be in the name of the LegionâŠ
