I play as a beast in World of Warcraft

Since they've sent pirates to silence us, if we don't take them out, are we supposed to let them live to see another year?

Actually, that's not the case. Sir Strahad's original idea was to attack Arthas's army, preferably causing him a major defeat to save face.

A prince who suffers a defeat is not likely to be well-liked, which would allow him to unite with other nobles to challenge Terenas and secure more benefits.

Killing Arthas wasn't initially considered, but what if he were to die in the attack?

In times of war and enmity, the best approach is to crush the enemy completely!

Even their souls must be obliterated, or else they might cause trouble in the Shadow Realm.

In this world of swords and magic, where people can be rejuvenated in the Underworld after death, it's quite outlandish.

"Your Highness, the estate has been cleared."

Marlan approached Arthas, speaking with respect and a hint of unease.

"Next, we'll integrate the surrendering nobles, detain them with minimal food - they still have their uses. Marlan, do you think I'm cruel? Ignoring the so-called rules of nobility?" Arthas chuckled lightly, for even in death, nobles deserve a dignified end, avoiding death whenever possible.

"No, Your Highness. I won't speculate on anything you do; I will only carry out your orders." Marlan remained humble, refusing to acknowledge such matters.

Approaching Marlan, Arthas embraced her, his hand kneading her shapely buttocks. "You are like a wife to me, Marlan. I may not be a faithful man, I may have many wives. But when it comes to a wife, I will do my best to help, love, and protect her. Being kind to enemies is being cruel to oneself. I don't want their descendants seeking revenge on you in the future, so eliminating them is for the best. Marlan, we are husband and wife; we must communicate openly, don't keep things bottled up inside, I care for you."

"Your Highness!" Marlan was moved. At least one man was willing to explain things to her. Given Arthas's status and recent prominence, there were plenty of women willing to fawn over him.

His gentle explanation was already a sign of respect, treating her as one of his own.

Mature women are adept at guiding themselves, not getting stuck in trivial matters. They don't beat around the bush and can assist, even venting primal desires - it's a win-win situation.

With his subordinates busy, it would take some time here, at least a week.

Arthas had no intention of taking Vanessa and her father away. Before that, he had one more task - to eliminate the still-living Sir Strahad. Without uprooting the source, new challenges would arise!

"We must eradicate the root. If our main base is raided, he won't be able to resist coming out. We can eliminate him then, making this land ours."

Arthas spoke to Marlan. She managed the military affairs efficiently, handling many tedious tasks exceptionally well.

She quickly cultivated trustworthy subordinates, delegating tasks to them - something Arthas couldn't do.

"I fear he may not return. Your Highness, we must be prepared. If Strahad doesn't return, we'll have to take the initiative. If he seeks refuge in other nobles' territory and tarnishes Your Highness's reputation, it will be a burden." Marlan frowned, studying the map of the eastern kingdom, searching for possible hiding spots for Sir Strahad.

Marlan wasn't wrong. If the cunning fox doesn't return, it means watching Arthas encroach on his territory. A counterattack using public opinion could be troublesome.

Both pondered the issue. Marlan excelled in military strategy, but when it came to intrigue, she struggled a bit.

Was it worth learning in this corrupt and decadent system?

Better to focus on military matters.

Knock, knock, a knock at the door. Arthas rubbed his temples. "Come in."

Kryssyta entered, wearing a pair of newly made open-toe strapped high heels. Her ten delicate toes pressed against the silver-white heels, giving off a fresh and alluring vibe.

"Your Highness, what do you think?"

Arthas's eyes lit up. Azeroth did not have high heels, so he had the idea to introduce high heels and stockings for consumption. However, both products were easily imitated, so he had to temporarily set aside this idea.

But ever since the dragon envoys arrived, a new idea had sparked in his mind.

Incorporating magic and enchantments into high heels and stockings, creating magic stockings that could regulate temperature!

From wind enchantments that made walking easier to various unexpected enchantments, all could be added.

This was something only a magician could do, which meant the manufacturing cost would be significantly higher.

But what did it matter?

Products sold to nobles needed to be exquisite, bearing traces of magic and flashy special effects would be enough to make them boast!

"Very nice, it looks much sexier this way!"

Arthas gazed at the high elf beauty before him, her snow-white legs adorned with seductive black lace stockings and ten-centimeter high heels. Despite still being somewhat unaccustomed to walking in them, she looked enticing enough to drive any man wild!

Marlan's eyes also sparkled. As a woman, she loved beauty, not considering herself old, just self-deprecatingly so. A thirty-year-old mature woman was far from being old.

Her eyes gleamed at the shiny, slightly hazy high heels and stockings.

"Did you design these, Your Highness?"

"Yes, I plan to replicate thirty pairs and gift them to other Lords, including nobles from other kingdoms. I want them to advertise for me. When they wear these to banquets, it will surely cause a sensation. We will promote them as products of Lordaeron, and they will come flocking to buy them. I also have some magical rings and necklaces, all worth a fortune. Once we return victorious from Quel'Thalas, their desire to shop will peak, and that's when we can sell them!" Arthas sounded rather pleased with himself. These items were so alluring on women that not even men could resist them!
