Spellweaver

Aiden said in a deep voice: "I believe you still have the ability to distinguish right from wrong. I will not say anything to interfere with your judgment. I am just showing you a fact that you don't know. You see, I'm not here to fight. While you were secretly casting spells, ready to kill me at any time, I didn't make any hostile moves, nor did I cast any defenses." He spread out his hands to show his innocence.

Malygos roared loudly: "That's because you humans are full of lies. I won't believe a word you say! Although I hate you and can't wait to kill you immediately, I have my own principles. I don't bother to kill an enemy who doesn't resist! Get out of here, immediately, before I change my mind!"

Aiden tried to calm himself down. He told himself again and again that he was not here to fight. The underlying setting of "World of Warcraft" may have already set an ending for the Nexus War—that is, either Malygos wins and the spellcasting races are cleansed; or the Dragonscale Alliance wins and Malygos dies.

What he has to do now is to resolve this war peacefully, save Malygos, and save the mortal races at the same time. Let the Nexus War produce a third ending.

This must be difficult, and he was already mentally prepared.

Aiden took a deep breath. Although he didn't need to breathe in his mirrored state, it still calmed him down a bit.

"Malygos, I will tell you that everything you have experienced is actually a conspiracy to lead you to death. You are now doing things that pain your loved ones and please your enemies. The only beneficiaries are Deathwing and the Old Gods behind him!"

"Empty words, do you think I will believe your sweet talk?" Malygos stared at Aiden angrily. This mortal was constantly challenging the bottom line of his patience, and his patience was almost worn out. Malygos had already made up his mind that no matter how shocking the person said, he would not believe it! The only effect of these lies is to strengthen his determination to kill those mortals who abuse magic!

"You want evidence, this is the evidence!" Aiden waved his hand, and Malygos immediately became alert, even almost launching an attack, but then he realized that the other party did not take the opportunity to attack.

A memory of time backtracking was displayed in front of Malygos. Before, Nozdormu used this method to tell him that Alexstrasza and this mortal would rush into the Nexus and kill him together in the future.

This time, Aiden showed him a completely different and interconnected complete memory.

How Nozdormu was misled by future illusions, and thus misunderstood Aiden; how the Bronze Dragon King came up with the idea of using Malygos to eliminate him; Arygos's contact with Blackmore, the agent of the Eternal Dragon, and the conspiracy with the Twilight Father… and why the Focusing Iris in the Eye of Eternity was able to complete charging in half the time compared to before…

Not because of the Titan's blessing, but because from the beginning, there were two Focusing Irises here, and they were absorbing twice the energy!

And the other Focusing Iris was taken away by his son a day ago!

The last two sentences of this memory come from the Twilight Father and Arygos.

"Where are we going?"

"To complete the next step of the plan—don't worry, Arygos, in one day, we will be able to see the ending. Either your father wins, and the Blue Dragonflight eliminates the mortal races, which is the scene our master wants to see most; or you win, your father dies, and you become the second Spellweaver! You see, both outcomes are what you expect, and both are beneficial to you!"

The illusion provided by Aiden ended here.

Malygos woke up. He couldn't help but have serious doubts about his own behavior—after all, this memory provided almost all the clues from the past. They were intertwined and linked together, and they all proved that all of this was a conspiracy of the Old Gods. He and Nozdormu had unintentionally become accomplices of the Old Gods!

But at this moment, another scene appeared before his eyes:

The Twilight Father, who had obtained the Focusing Iris, suddenly launched a killer attack when Arygos was defenseless, directly killing him!

"You!" Arygos turned his head, his heart already shattered by the evil shadow magic, leaving only the last few seconds of his life.

"You have no more value to use, Prince Arygos." The shadowy Twilight Father said grimly.

Before Arygos died, he cast the last spell, not to fight back, but to reveal the true face of the Twilight Father.

Malygos saw from the perspective of his poor son—that person was Aiden standing in front of him!

A familiar voice reached his ears, it was the voice of Nozdormu.

"Malygos, my good brother—this mortal is deceiving you!"

So this is the truth!

Malygos opened his frightened eyes. This mortal had planned everything behind the scenes and deliberately eliminated the most important scene in the memory backtracking spell.

His purpose is already very clear—

"You want to kill me when I am defenseless! Human! I will never be deceived by you again!" Malygos launched a frantic attack, and a mouthful of angry dragon breath spewed out of his mouth, its power even freezing the soul!

Aiden was caught off guard by Malygos's sudden change of face. He had already sorted out everything in this memory. No rational person could react like this. Why would Malygos think that Aiden would kill him?

Faced with this extremely cold dragon breath, Aiden's heart was icy cold. There was only one explanation—I'm afraid Malygos was really completely mad!

He looked at the Dragon King with disappointment, and transformed from a physical body into nothingness before the ice breath completely froze him, disappearing in front of Malygos.

Aiden woke up on the back of Matrigosa, his face was extremely pale, and his body was unusually cold from the inside out. The dragon breath finally hurt his soul, and the injury spread from the soul to the body. A layer of crystal clear ice even formed on his body surface.

"What's wrong? Lord Aiden!" Matrigosa keenly sensed the change on her back. The blue dragons were originally a race extremely proficient in frost magic. Because of this, the blue dragons who were resurrected after death were called frost dragons. The coldness emanating from Aiden's body was immediately captured by her.

Matrigosa twisted her neck and happened to see Aiden summoning the vast power of the Holy Light, instantly dispelling the cold ice energy. However, Matrigosa still saw the captivatingly cold ice crystals emanating from the surface of this noble human leader's body before the Holy Light erupted, as if turning his whole person into an ice sculpture.

"I… I'm fine." Aiden recovered and immediately shouted, thinking of what happened just now, "We have to hurry, Matrigosa, otherwise it will be too late!"

"alright, Your Excellency!" Matrigosa spread her wings and flew at her fastest speed. The wind howled, blowing Aiden's clothes loudly.

Aiden on her back began to urgently contact the Dragon Kings, but he always had a strong premonition of unease—I'm afraid Malygos would really launch the Focusing Iris!

Regardless of whether they could subdue or kill Malygos, this would bring a devastating disaster to most mortal races!

This was clearly a Nexus War that was more prepared than in history, but it might usher in consequences that were a hundred times worse than in history.

Is this a punishment from heaven—no, from the hidden system?

Because he wanted to use his own ability to create an ending that was not originally in the setting?

When Aiden was suddenly attacked by Malygos, the Red Dragon Queen, who was on standby, almost immediately sensed this scene. She secretly called out that it was terrible and immediately rushed to the Eye of Eternity at her fastest speed. Alexstrasza certainly would not fly directly with her wings. The Dragon King has the special treatment of the Dragon King. After she teleported into the Nexus, she immediately used a spell to teleport herself directly into the Eye of Eternity, directly in front of Malygos!

"Malygos, stop it! Do you know what you are doing!" Alexstrasza was shocked by the scene she saw in front of her.

"No, never! Alexstrasza, don't stop me, I must do this!" Malygos's eyes were red and he looked extremely crazy. He was guiding the energy of the Focusing Iris into the Arcanum. Before this, the attack target he provided had already been set in the Arcanum. When all the energy in the Focusing Iris is injected into the Arcanum, the Great Cleansing will begin!

This is already an irreversible process! Even if Malygos is killed immediately, almost no one can cut off the connection between the Focusing Iris and the Arcanum—you must know that the current Focusing Iris has absorbed enough massive energy to destroy Azeroth ten times over. Any disturbance could cause it to explode immediately!

Only the Nexus-Lord has the authority to stop it. But it was the Nexus-Lord himself who initiated it. How could Malygos, in his current state, voluntarily halt the process?

"Good heavens, do you know what you're saying? Have you forgotten your identity, Malygos! We are the Dragon Aspects, not destroyers! How is what you're doing any different from what Deathwing did?" Alexstrasza rebuked Malygos with grief and indignation, deeply understanding the implications of the scene before her.

They had failed!

Malygos coldly replied, "No, I am not wrong, Alexstrasza! Only we dragons, and the mortals I deem worthy, should be allowed to wield magic within limited boundaries! These mortals being purged are desecrating magic, and they are the ones who will truly destroy the world! I am merely fulfilling my duty!"

At that moment, the Green Dragon Aspect, Ysera, flew out from a spatial rift. She stood beside her sister, and after a single glance, she understood the current situation.

"Malygos, don't you understand? The duty of us Dragon Aspects should not be in conflict. The duty you should fulfill should never encroach upon the domain my sister protects!" Ysera staunchly sided with Alexstrasza. Whether logically or emotionally, this was the most correct choice for her.

She, too, felt sorrow for the choice made by this former brother. She couldn't comprehend why the former Blue Dragon Aspect, who was once courageous in sacrificing himself, rational, and intelligent, had become like this now.

Just as Alexstrasza had said, Malygos himself hadn't realized that he was walking down the same path as Deathwing!

It was just that he wasn't aware that he was helping the Old Gods, and even believed that he was not doing anything wrong!

Malfurion also entered at this moment, "Queen Ysera is right, the duties of the Dragon Aspects should not be in conflict. Nexus-Lord, turn back!"

The archmages of the Kirin Tor entered one after another. Antonidas, Khadgar, Anna, Modera, Drenden, Krasus, Rhonin – they all arrived and stood together. Everyone had a reason to avoid this war, except the Kirin Tor. Not siding with the Nexus-Lord meant certain destruction at his hands!

The high elves also arrived. Prince Kael'thas, Grand Magister Rommath, and others quickly gathered.

Following them were the mage forces of the Valoran Federation—an organization whose size and strength were no less than the Kirin Tor's mage corps.

The wandering mage Ryze, the Deathsinger Karthus, the Void Walker Kassadin, the Lady of Luminosity Lux, the Nine-Tailed Fox Ahri, the Storm's Fury Janna, the Ice Witch Lissandra, the Evil Minion Veigar, the Dark Sovereign Syndra… and the angel sisters Kayle and Morgana, among others.

Orcs, night elves, draenei… powerful spellcasters of various races gathered at the Eye of Eternity.

Within a mere two minutes, the Eye of Eternity had become a battlefield teeming with transcendents!

Aiden was almost the last to arrive. He had spent some time collecting evidence in Arygos's room, and then, while rushing to the Eye of Eternity in soul form, he had been ambushed by Malygos and suffered some injuries, from which he hadn't fully recovered.

This battle should have been led by the two Dragon Aspects, Alexstrasza and Ysera, but they seemed to have found their backbone when they saw Aiden arrive. They were clearly aware that Aiden was the key figure in this battle. Whether or not the release of the Focusing Iris's energy could be stopped depended entirely on him!

After all, he was the anomaly who could drive the Titan device in the dream and obtain the authority of the Dream Guardian.

The Focusing Iris, the Nexus Needles, the Occulus—these were all Titan artifacts. When Malygos committed such a crazy act, only Aiden had the hope of averting this catastrophe!

His face was somewhat pale due to the soul injury. The heroes around him cast concerned glances, but he shook his head, indicating that he was fine.

Aiden stepped past the crowd and walked forward once again, "Malygos, I have shown you the beginning and end of the matter—please tell me, what did you see at the end?"

He had realized on his way here that all the changes had occurred at the end of that memory. Malygos seemed to have seen something that made him grief-stricken and indignant, which was why he suddenly launched the attack.

You should know that with Malygos's pride, he would generally not attack an unprepared opponent, as he said.

Malygos was now surrounded by a large group of heroes, each glaring at him menacingly, which only aroused his rebellious psychology. The question Aiden asked made Malygos feel as if he was defiantly showing off to him, issuing a blatant taunt!

When a person is biased against someone, they can find fault with everything the other person does. Moreover, what Malygos harbored for Aiden was not just bias—but a deep-seated hatred! The hatred of killing his wife and children!

"I...saw...your...death!" Malygos squeezed out these angry words through gritted teeth.

A tear welled up in Alexstrasza's eye. She said sadly, "Don't say anymore, Aiden—Malygos is no longer a guardian, he has completely gone mad! Come, let us end this guardian who has forgotten his original intention together!"

"I am not wrong, you are the ones who are wrong—Alexstrasza, Ysera, you have all been deceived by this man!" Malygos roared angrily and sadly.

His body had not received any blows, but his heart was wounded by the animosity of Alexstrasza and Ysera.

"You would rather believe a human of unknown origin than believe me! Alexstrasza, Ysera, you have disappointed me too much! Only I and Nozdormu are right!"

Malygos let out a piercing roar, his eyes bloodshot with the grief and indignation of being misunderstood. Now he had only one thought: destruction! Destroy everyone and everything before him!

Chromie was also here, and hearing Malygos emphasize that only he and Nozdormu were right, she immediately shouted, "Malygos, even Nozdormu himself doesn't know if he's right or wrong, how do you know he's right, and that you are right?"

Malygos, ignited by the flames of rage, could no longer hear any persuasion. His reason had long since completely faded away, and only one thought remained in his mind:

These people in front of him were all Aiden's accomplices, all people who had come to eliminate him under his bewitchment!

"I...am...not...wrong!" Malygos's head felt as if it were about to explode. A layer of red mist clouded his eyes as he swept over everyone before him—humans, orcs, elves, even dragons—they were all different in form, but each one had a hideous face, each one couldn't wait to skin him, drink his blood, and eat his flesh!

"All of you, die!" Malygos roared, his dragon tail sweeping out fiercely, bringing a howling hurricane, wanting to crush all these hateful people into pieces!

"Stop him!" Alexstrasza ordered sadly.

"Kirin Tor, attack!"

"Dragonmaw Clan, attack!"

"Valoran, attack!"

...

Chaotic sounds rang out inside the Eye of Eternity. Just as Malygos launched his attack, the forces of the Dragonmaw Clan immediately launched a counterattack. Everyone dodged Malygos's sweeping tail, and all kinds of spells poured towards the Nexus-Lord.

Malygos cast a semi-transparent blue shield on himself. These powerful spells struck the shield, only causing ripples to spread across its surface, failing to break through the defense!

You should know that those who were qualified to stand here were all the most powerful heroes in the Alliance, the weakest of whom were archmages. Which one of them wouldn't be a famous figure outside? But the shield on Malygos's body easily negated all of their powerful magic.

Was the gap between mortals and Dragon Aspects really that great?

Malygos was not surprised by this at all. He laughed wildly, "You invaded my territory, and you still want to use magic against me? Come, let me show you why I am called the 'Nexus-Lord'!"

The shield on his body contracted slightly, and then suddenly exploded. The spells that had previously been supplied to Malygos flew back like a rain of flowers, their targets now becoming the original casters…
