Although Stellagosa emphasized that it was only a theory, and Sarlayan also righteously promised that it would not be implemented, this seemingly feasible plan still left an impression on the family.
Dragons have a completely different understanding of partners than mortals. Stellagosa and Onyxia don't care about Sharlayan having multiple partners.
While Jaina was also wavering, Valeela was the only one who had the strongest objection.
The family has been getting along with each other for many years, and everyone knows that Valila is a typical sharp-tongued person.
There really needs to be someone in this family who plays a bad role, otherwise with Saraian's powerful ability to attract bees and butterflies, God knows how many people will be crammed into the family in the future.
Although Sarlayan always appears to be a scheming figure in front of outsiders, he never plays tricks on his family.
At this moment, he really didn't think deeply about it, but he felt somewhat guilty for Calia's attitude of being lonely all her life.
I always feel that Xiao Sa has been tricked.]
These women... none of them are simple things. They are so sophisticated in the city. I want to go back to the countryside.】
If you think too much, rural roads will become slippery and the routines will become more complicated.]
Xiao Sa is not a good person in terms of emotional pull, but he is still far away from those tea masters.】
Is Jialiya considered a master of tea art?】
Hmm... I guess it doesn't count. I just used some tricks to test Sarlayan's attitude and arouse his guilt.】
After all, this question is related to which direction her life will turn in the rest of her life, so this little temptation is understandable.】
Sarlayan was still busy comforting Valeela, whose face was getting increasingly ugly, and had no time to pay attention to the topic that the barrage was talking about.
Moreover, there are very few rational discussions at this time, and most of the Shaduo netizens are watching the show with gloating in their misfortune.
…
Late that night, Sarlayan tried his best to persuade Valeela who was still angry, but he himself looked out the window at the dark night sky like a sage.
"Although this was not my original intention, it was because of me that Calia made the decision to live alone for the rest of her life."
Sarlayan's expression was a little complicated, and he sighed silently: 'For now, let's give her some compensation.'
Azeroth has been relatively peaceful in recent years, and Sharlayan originally planned to give the blessing of life ability gained after becoming a demigod to Jaina, so that she could have a longer lifespan.
However, contrary to Sharlayan's expectation, Jaina actually rejected his proposal.
In her own words... Someone has already paved a smooth road for her to become a demigod. If she cannot break through the shackles of mortals before the age of 25, wouldn't she be sorry for the name of peerless genius given to her by the elders of various countries?
?
As the barrage said, as the first mortal other than Azshara to break through and become a demigod by his own abilities, the experience accumulated by Sharlayan in the process of breaking through is extremely precious.
It was precisely with this understanding that Valeera and Stellagosa were able to pass the threshold that had blocked Malfurion and others for thousands of years with relative ease.
Jaina and Stellagosa are both arcanists, and with Stellagosa's dedicated guidance, Jaina does not believe that with her own hard work and talent, she will be stuck at the final bottleneck for a long time.
What Jaina now lacks is the accumulation of strength before reaching the peak of mortal life. As long as the internal faction disputes in Dalaran are resolved, she will be free to study hard and quickly improve her personal strength.
Unlike those combat professions that can only accumulate experience through actual combat, arcanists can gain experience through research and insights. This is why both Dalaran and Quel'Thalas artificially divide arcanists into combat schools and academic schools.
reason.
Comparatively speaking, the combat ability of the practical school is stronger, but in the circle of mages, the academic mages are often more respected.
In their words, this seems to make them more noble? Sharlayan cannot understand the weird brain circuits of those arcanists.
In this crisis-ridden world, how can you talk about being noble if you can't even save your life? That's funny.
Jaina is not blindly confident. Her talent in the arcane arts is indeed amazing. Even Ronin and Khadgar, who are also called geniuses, feel inferior to them.
Moreover, because of Jaina's connections with Sharlayan, she has read a large number of precious books since she was a child that an arcanist would never be able to collect in her lifetime. Her huge knowledge reserve is also one of the important factors that promote her rapid progress.
Saryan speculated that Jaina, who is only 20 years old this year, should reach the bottleneck in 12 years.
With the guidance of a large family of demigods, the speed with which she breaks through the bottleneck is destined to set a record.
From this perspective, Sarlayan's life blessing is indeed not very necessary for her. Anyway, in five years at the latest, Jaina will be able to enter the realm of immortal demigods.
Considering this, Sharlayan temporarily changed his mind and planned to give the blessing of life to the equally short-lived Queen Calia of Lordaeron as compensation for delaying her youth.
According to Alexstrasza, Queen of the Red Dragon, the life-extending effect of Life Blessing depends on the amount of life source output by the blesser.
The more the original power is output, the longer it will take to recover afterwards, but at the same time the lifespan will be extended more, and vice versa.
Considering that the Battle of Ulduar will officially start in one year at the latest, Sharlayan does not plan to export too much of Calia's original power at once.
Calia is not a powerful healer like Jaina whose physical fitness has been strengthened by dragon essence for a long time. She is just a weak priest who has not even entered the legendary realm.
Outputting too much life essence at once would be an unbearable burden for her.
Anyway, this kind of blessing is not a one-time deal, so just output a small amount first to see the effect, and then you can continue to add more according to the actual situation.
"Speaking of which..."
Before Saraian fell asleep, he thought of one last question in confusion: "How many years can the life source that makes me weak for a year extend Calia's life?"

"ha……"
The next morning, in the restaurant of the Lord's Mansion.
When Sarlayan told his family about the compensation plan he thought of last night, Valeera was the first to smile bitterly and rub her eyebrows. The others also smiled and said nothing, and no one raised any objections.
Valeera sighed and said: "Since you have decided, let's do this... It is much better than bringing someone back directly."
"I won't follow you this time... Jaina, why don't you accompany him? You can also have a good chat with your 'best friend' whom you have reunited with after a long absence."
Jaina, who was immersed in cooking, looked up at Valeera in shock: "Let me go? Are you serious?"
"Aren't you afraid that I will open the back door for Calia?"
After a night of "persuading" and "calming down," Valeela's mood had calmed down a lot. She said calmly: "I believe you will not take the initiative to cause trouble for yourself, and you should know that I asked you to go.
reason."
While gnawing bread, Sharlayan looked back and forth at the expressions of Valeera and Jaina.
He always felt that these two guys with twinkling eyes were communicating something in a secret channel of soul link, but he couldn't provide any evidence.
"Fine."
After a round of communication, Jaina accepted the task with a smile.
"It's true that I haven't seen Sister Jialia for a long time. I'll just go."
Onyxia and Tinagosa, who usually take an active part in all kinds of fun, knew what they were doing and didn't express their intention to follow them this time.
After breakfast, little Tina took the initiative to jump on Onyxia's shoulder and settle down. The two planned to go fishing together at the beach, but it was a shark.
After walking into the teleportation gate opened by Jaina, Sharlayan and his wife arrived at the teleportation tower in the Royal City of Lordaeron in the next second.
Since there was no advance notice, the human mages in the teleportation tower were caught off guard by the sudden visit of Archduke Deep Shadow.
There are only 5 hereditary grand dukes in the entire Quel'Thalas, 4 of which were conferred by Dath'Rema during the founding of the country. They are thousands of years old.
As the only Grand Duke to be awarded a medal for meritorious service in the contemporary era, it is no surprise that Thalayan Deepshadow's name and photo spread throughout the countries of the Eastern Kingdom.
Without deliberately concealing the appearance, it is no longer possible to visit privately incognito as before.
That's right, photos.
The dwarf engineers had developed cameras a long time ago, and Sarlayan didn't know when his photo was taken.
All in all, the appearance of Archduke Deep Shadow is no longer a secret among high-level officials in various countries. As soon as he and Jaina showed up, they were recognized by the Lordaeron mage who was in charge of the teleportation tower.
About a minute later, a middle-aged mage whose robes were somewhat disheveled and who seemed to have just come out of the laboratory hurriedly teleported over and took off his hat to salute Sarlayan and Jaina in a very respectful manner.
"Grand Duke Deep Shadow, Councilor Proudmoore, welcome you both to Lordaeron. I am Vargas, the chief mage advisor of the Kingdom of Lordaeron."
"oh?"
Sarlayan had heard of the name Vargos, and they were both magicians. Jaina knew him better than Sarlayan did.
Jaina looked at the disheveled middle-aged mage thoughtfully: "Master Vargas, I have talked with Speaker Luo Ning about your whereabouts before, but I didn't expect you to come to Lordaeron to serve."
