Remember [New] in a second! Sharlayan frowned slightly, and took a deep look at Jaina who still maintained a cheerful smile.

Since the reunion, Sharlayan still upholds the way he treated Jaina in the past, treating her like a child who has not grown up.

But the topic Jaina wanted to discuss with Sharlayan at this time obviously went beyond the scope of what "children" should care about.

It was only now that Sharlayan finally began to face up to Jaina's growth.

…not an exaggerated development of the body, but a maturity of the mind.

Abandoning the perfunctory treatment of the child before, Sharlayan looked at Jaina with deep eyes.

"Why do you ask? You don't want to inherit the throne?"

Jaina showed a bright smile without a word, and turned around in a circle with her hands behind her back. The skirt corners of the printed hair robe fluttered slightly, attracting the attention of many males around.

Turning to Sharlayan's side, Jaina took his arm again very naturally.

"Brother Sharlayan, I told you before that I have no interest in the throne, and I only want to explore the mysteries of arcane arts in this life."

Sharlayan looked up and recalled: "Indeed, but you were still young at that time, I thought you were just talking."

"No~"

Jaina looked at the bustling market with a mature expression on her face that did not agree with her age.

"I really don't intend to inherit the throne. This responsibility should have belonged to Drake, but it's a pity..."

Talking about her eldest brother who fell in the war, Jaina's bright eyes flashed a hint of darkness.

Shaking her head to shake off the negative emotions, the little princess regained a smile on her face.

"That boy Tandre has been clamoring to be the admiral of the navy since he was a child. At that time, he didn't know that the position of admiral of the navy in Kul Tiras would only belong to the king."

"Brother Sarlayan, when you met Tandre this time, did his ambition change?"

Sarlayan recalled the few words he had exchanged with Prince Tandre: "Should... no, when he talked about the naval victory, his eyes were full of anticipation. job."

Jaina showed a look of relief on her face: "That's good, with Tandre's back, I don't have to worry so much about the succession to the throne, and I can fully pursue my own happiness."

'Well. '

The corner of Sharlayan's mouth twitched: "Jianna, with all due respect, I don't think His Majesty Daelin will agree with your... bold idea."

"Hehe~"

Jaina chuckled happily against Sharlayan's arm: "This is indeed the case now, but what will happen in the future... who can say for sure?"

"Okay, don't talk about these unhappy things, we... hmm?"

Jaina, who was still smiling just now, suddenly stopped and looked at a roadside stall with a stiff expression.

Sharlayan asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

"Brother Sharlayan."

Jaina's expression became a little dignified, and she pointed to a strange statue on the stall.

"That statue... I always feel a little familiar, as if I've seen it somewhere before."

Following Jaina's instructions, Sharlayan also saw the statue she was talking about.

It was a statue of an octopus carved out of some kind of black stone material...let's call it an octopus.

'This shape...'

Sharlayan narrowed his eyes slightly, patted Jaina's arm holding him, and after she let go knowingly, he walked two steps forward and squatted down in front of the stall.

The stall owner is a green-skinned goblin. When he saw someone standing in front of his shop, he immediately rubbed his hands and asked with bright eyes, "Customer, is there anything you like? Guaranteed price announcement, no lie."

'Oh~'

Sharlayan didn't even bother to complain, as long as money was involved, he couldn't believe a single punctuation mark in what the goblin said.

Holding the "octopus" statue with his hand, Sharlayan felt it carefully, but did not find any kind of power from the statue.

The goblin introduced fluently: "The guests are really eye-catching. This is a statue that our expedition team found under a deep seabed. It is said to come from Naga."

'Naga...'

Ignoring the first half of the goblin's nonsense, this thing might really have something to do with Naga.

'Deep sea, octopus, Naga... How did these things flow into the land and spread to Dalaran? '

According to Danmaku, every Old God is a tentacle monster, no matter what their characteristic abilities are, tentacles must exist.

This statue that looks like an octopus is obviously not a real octopus, it is carved with the conceptual shape of an ancient god.

'The sea... Enzoth? '

‘Without any power, is it really just a coincidence? '

Ny'alotha, the lair of Enzoth, the Demon of Thousand Beards, is in the depths of the sea. Jaina, who grew up by the sea, may have known its general shape through some means, so she has a familiar sense of sight.

After pondering for a moment, Sharlayan decided to buy this thing.

Although there is no power in the wither, it is not appropriate to let this kind of symbol of the ancient gods remain in the folk circulation of Dalaran.

"Where did this thing come from?"

The goblin said innocently: "Our expedition ship..."

Sharlayan's face sank, his majestic aura oppressed the goblin who was full of nonsense.

"It's not a story you made up, I want to listen to the truth."

Although goblins will sell anything for money, they will not give up their lives for a small profit.

Seeing that Jaina behind Sharlayan had put her hands on the staff hanging from her waist, the goblin stall owner with sweat on her forehead hurriedly raised her hands.

"Don't! I just said it!"

"I picked this thing up from the beach in my hometown. It should have been washed ashore by the tide. It really came from the sea!"

Sharlayan's eyes flashed: "Hometown? Kezan Islands?"

The goblin stall owner showed surprise on his face.

Goblins are doing business all over the world. Except for Kul Tiras, who holds the hegemony of the sea, not many people know that their hometown is in the Kezan Islands.

Sharlayan was not short of money, so he was too lazy to bargain repeatedly with the goblins.

Named the origin of the other party, and after knowing the origin of this item, the goblin stall owner did not dare to ask for a price. Sharlayan took this "handicraft" from the sea with 5 silver coins.

This unexpected "harvest" made Sharlayan lose the mood to go shopping.

The understanding Jaina didn't continue to drag Sharlayan around, and led him to her private residence in Dalaran.

With Jaina's current strength and status, she is not qualified to build her own mage tower in Dalaran.

After all, she was also the princess of Kul Tiras. Jaina didn't live in Antonidas' mage tower like other apprentices, and Daelin personally bought a private property for her.

This small villa is near Antonidas' mage tower, which is convenient for Jaina to travel between the mentor's mage tower and her house every day.

Small but complete.

Jaina's small villa is not luxuriously decorated, and the house is full of "life atmosphere".

High emotional intelligence: full of breath of life

Low EQ: Mess

From the random piles of clothes in the living room, it can be roughly guessed that Jaina must have spent a lot of time choosing clothes this morning.

"Sorry, it's rare that you have spent so much time dressing up, but I couldn't accompany you to the end."

Jaina waved her staff with a flushed face, packed the messy clothes in the living room into **** and threw them into the space package.

"Cough! It's important to do business. You can go shopping at any time."

All the way to the underground laboratory, Jaina rubbed her hot cheeks, tried her best to straighten her face and asked, "Brother Salayan, what is this statue? It's dangerous?"

Sharlayan shook his head: "The statue itself is not dangerous, what is dangerous is what it represents~lightnovelpub.net~ Perhaps you have heard similar According to rumors, this statue...represents the ancient **** Enzoth."

Jaina has read a large number of documents in Quel'Thalas and Suramar, some of which contain records related to the Old Gods.

In terms of knowledge alone, Jaina may still be above Antonidas.

"Ancient God?!"

Hearing this title, Jaina took a step back subconsciously, drew out her staff and pointed at the statue vigilantly.

"take it easy."

Sharlayan waved his hand to signal Jaina to put down her weapon: "This thing doesn't have any power, it looks like an 'ordinary' handicraft, and it should be carved by a naga living on the bottom of the sea."

"I'm more curious, why did this thing wash up on the beaches of the Kezan Islands?"

"Is it a coincidence, or..."

A cold light flashed in Sharlayan's eyes: "The layout of Enzoth?"
