Chapter 563: I Don't Love Him
After Prince Legolas left, King Thranduil hesitated and made his way through the narrow cave to the platform.
There, most of the people had left, except for Taurrell, who was holding Chili's corpse and sitting in the sunlight.
…… It's like a kind of self-torture.
King Thranduil sighed faintly.
Wood elves live in the dark jungle all year round, the dark forest is full of tens of thousands of years of ancient trees, the branches and leaves between the ancient trees and the canopy of the ancient trees cross together, covering the sky and the sun, so it can be said that the wood elves live in darkness and shadow all year round, the moonlight is their favorite light, and the sunlight is too dazzling and intense for them.
Taurrell sat in the sun, her lips dry and blood dripping from the wounds on her arms, not self-punishment, but nothing.
King Thranduil deliberately stepped up and walked behind Taurrell.
Taurrell heard the footsteps, and recognized them as those of King Thrandil.
Originally, as a member of the Wood Elf, when she saw King Thrandil, she should immediately put down everything in her hand and respectfully salute King Thrandil.
However, Taurrell did not do that, and she still sat still, holding Chili's corpse in her arms.
"Why are you doing this?" King Thranduil said in a deep voice.
Taurrell said lightly: "Life is inherently bitter, all happiness is false, and I didn't discover this truth until today. ”
King Thranduil said, "I know I have been unjust to you, Taurreel, you are a good captain, you can see from your past performance and performance in this war, but I still banished you from the Wood Elf clan, you must be very resentful of me." ”
Taurrell scoffed, "Yes, I resent you, but not because of that. ”
King Thranduil frowned: "Are you still blaming me for breaking up you and Prince Leglas?" ”
Taurrell shook his head, "No, to be honest, I've always regarded Prince Legolas as a comrade-in-arms, not a lover. ”
King Thranduil was stunned: "So, you really don't love Legolas?" ”
"I don't love him," Taurrell said. ”
King Thranduil hesitated for a moment, "Could it be that you really like Chili?" ”
In the past, it was not uncommon for elves to like other races, but almost without exception, these examples were all humans, and there was never a precedent for elves to like dwarves.
The elves and the dwarves are two races with completely opposite habits, the elves like a quiet and elegant life, while the dwarves love to be lively and unkempt.
No true elf could stand the dwarves, so it was hard for Thranduil to believe that Taurel would like Chiri.
Taurrell said with a wry smile: "Chili is an idealist and a brave man, he likes me, he said it out loud, and with his life and blood, he proved his love, and I ...... On the contrary, I dare not say who I like. ”
King Thranduil suddenly became even more confused, "Taurrell, I don't understand what you're saying, if it's not Prince Legolas or Chili that you like, then who do you like?" ”
Taurrell said lightly: "What's the point of saying it? I'm ...... with him It's always impossible. ”
King Thranduil said in a deep voice, "I am very sorry that I caused you to bear the black cauldron and banished you from the Wood Elves because of Prince Legolas's affairs, and if I can make it up to you, I will do my best to make it up to you." Say, whoever you like, I will be my Lord of the Wood Elves to bring you together. ”
King Thranduil thinks so, he is indeed a little sorry for Taurreil, so he wants to accept Taurrell as his goddaughter, so that although Taurrell's bloodline is not high, but Taurreil's status can be increased a lot, even if Taurrell likes the Dragon Slayer, Thranduil can help to speak.
Taurell smiled faintly, "Really? Can you bring us together as the Lord of the Wood Elves? ”
Lord Thranduil said, "Yes, I will do my best. ”
As long as Taurrell didn't like Prince Legolas, King Thranduil felt that everything was fine.
Taurrell slowly stood up, his eyes fixed on King Thrandil.
"The person I like is here."
King Thranduil was stunned, "But you just said that you don't like Chili. ”
"Yes, as much as Chili loves me so much, I really don't love him, and I can't deceive myself about that." With tears in her eyes, Taurrell said, "The one I like...... It's you. ”
King Thranduil was shocked.
He never expected that Taurrell would ......
At this moment, King Thrandil's mood was very complicated, he had some anger, some anxiety, and some panic.
He had already put his feelings out of the clouds, and he realized that Taurrell had actually shown his admiration for her a long time ago, but at that time, King Thranduil didn't care at all, and King Thranduil thought that it was just a little girl's admiration.
Taurrell took a step closer to King Thrandil, "Your Majesty, you have just promised to do your best to bring me to the person I like in your capacity, and now, please fulfill your own promise." ”
"Ridiculous!" King Thrandir said angrily, "This is ridiculous, Taurrell, you are just a child! ”
Torrell held his head high: "Really? But I'm over 800 years old! ”
King Thranduil said, "You are a child in my eyes! Moreover, you are just a civilian! ”
Taurrell smiled desperately, "yes, I should have thought that there would be an end today, you didn't even let Prince Legolas get close, how could you like a civilian like me?" After all, I was delusional. I'm sorry, Your Majesty, but I trespassed, and I'm leaving. ”
As she spoke, she bowed down to King Yingying of Thrandil, and shed a tear.
She wiped away her tears, walked back to Chili's body, took Chili's hand, and whispered, "Farewell, my friend." ”
With that, she stood up, and passed by King Thrandil, without saying a word.
King Thrandier's lips twitched slightly, he had something to say, but his brain was in a mess, and he didn't know what to say.
He didn't actually mean to discriminate against the Taurrell bloodline, he just wanted to follow the Wood Elf bloodline traditions.
A king can have love, but the king's blood must be pure and not have any defects.
The two passed by, without touching any sparks.
Taurreel left the snowy mountains, nor did he go to the lonely mountains, but disappeared into the vast world of Middle-earth with endless desolation.
