"He's gone, they're all gone, and they didn't even say goodbye, just left on their own?"

On the giant wooden "wall" on the edge of Anduria, the Noldor Ranger Sibea stood alone, watching the human coalition in the distance on the wide oak avenue, winding forward, colorful and eye-catching flags fluttering in the wind, gradually disappearing into the vast forest sea on the horizon, without a trace.

The army did not linger much longer in Anduria, and left without even entering the city. This made the Noldor elves both sad and relieved, these humans who came from afar did not break their agreement, and indeed came to help the Silent Forest, no matter how proud those Noldor warriors were, they must also admit the fact that without these human infantry and knights, Noldor would have won a miserable victory.

The skilled Noldor warriors could not form the strongest shield wall to resist the onslaught of the orcs, protect the archers behind them, and buy time for the commander to prepare, and the Noldor ranger cavalry could not charge with spears like the human knights, tearing apart the line of the orcs - almost a hundred Noldor elves who had been trained with Bode could not release their spears during the charge, and their right hands were broken by the strong recoil and the speed of the horses, and they could no longer fight.

In the days of fighting with the human coalition, the Noldor elves always thought so. On the one hand, it was unacceptable to see humans appear in the Silent Forest, and at the same time, they felt that they were only willing to come because they coveted the wealth of the Silent Forest, and when the army left, a sense of loss arose, as if I had misunderstood these ordinary but passionate human warriors.

Without mentioning any very excessive reasons, he quietly left after the end of the war. The departing back image conveys something, "reminding" himself not to forget to keep his promise, believing that the ancient Forest of Silence will also send a large army when humanity is in crisis.

There is a kind of back, which is called respect, there is a kind of trust, which is called friendship, and there is a relationship, which is called brotherhood.

......................................................................................................

The twilight of Anduria is a magnificence that no bard can describe, and the flashy rhetoric pales in the face of this masterpiece of nature.

The sunset above the forest sea in the west is struggling to burn the flames of the day, and the white clouds are dyed into a dazzling sunset, like the colorful silk torn off by the sun god from the sky, used to decorate the world, and the lonely stars in the eastern sky have swept from the sky like a hook-like moon, and the dream scene of the sun and the moon is only shown on this day, and the beauty of zuihou is used to draw a successful end to the time of this day.

But Sibea was not attracted by this wonderful picture, a melancholy look came through her eyes, and her long golden hair, which was softer than silk, was not tied in a ponytail, but was scattered behind her back, obscuring her face.

"Are you still watching here, Sibea?" a gentle and doting voice sounded behind her, and with the slightest sound of footsteps, came behind the girl, "He's gone." ”

"Who, who's gone?!" As if frightened, Sibeya turned around in a panic and hid behind, only to find that she had already reached the side, her face flushed: "Father!"

"Hehehe......" Erwin laughed a few times, walked over to the girl and patted her on the shoulder, looking out at the magnificent evening scenery in the distance, and said nothing.

"I didn't miss him! I—I just had some ...... Some ......" The girl defended palely, biting her lip tightly, not daring to look up at her father's face: "I'm a little tired, I'm too tired!"

"I'm your father, so you don't have to explain anything to me. If you want to say it, you will naturally take the initiative to tell me. Elwin stroked Sibeya's long blonde hair, and said in a gentle voice: "This is a father's trust in his daughter!"

"Father............" Sibea moaned as if she had been wronged, and with a cry in her mouth, she grasped the big heavy and powerful hands and leaned them on Elevyn's shoulders.

"You know, this afternoon, the people of the Bezaro family came, and you can see that they are very ............ Calm, I guess I have been mentally prepared for a long time. A witty smile appeared on the face of the Vara, who was in the Forest of Silence, remembered the scene when he was talking to the patriarch of the Bezaro family: "As long as Igo likes it, and the other party's family does not object, then let them go---that gentleman told me so, what an unusually enlightened parent, I can see that this kind of thing is also traditional, and many customs of the Noldor settlements in the north are still a little different from those in the east, more open and direct." ”

"That's why it was born Alpha Yi who shocked even the Silent Forest, the only sword master of the Noldor, and even received the 'Bleak Night' from the Grand Druid. The corners of Sibya's mouth curled quietly, and her gloomy mood was broken a little, and she couldn't help but laugh.

"The girl who shocked everyone has been with ...... What is his name, it seems to be Ustan, or Ust? In short, the Romans went with him to the human city called Caesarea, and maybe he will never come back again in this life. Speaking of this, even Ellewin himself was a little melancholy: "Although it seems that I want to open it, the Patriarch of Bezaro must be very reluctant, after all, it is his own daughter." ”

"I never expected you to stay by my side for the rest of your life, my dear Sibeya. I only hope that you will live this life happily and without regrets - and this is the only hope of all parents, that they will give up everything in this world for this purpose!" Everwin no longer looked at the beauty in the distance, and turned to leave: "If you want, you can go after him, I will not stop you." But before you do that, you have to think about it, are you okay with the outcome? Can you really be happy?"

Sibea was speechless, just glanced at the fading horizon again, and left behind Erwin.

"I want to go to Master Yi. The girl suddenly said: "Go with him to live in seclusion in the deep forest, learn swordsmanship, and learn how to control your heart." ”

"Really?" Elevin did not look back, his voice low, "I don't regret it at all, as far as I know, the days of seclusion are very hard, and for a young man like you, very, very hard. ”

"No regrets. Sibeya's face was as calm as an ancient stone well, without the slightest ripple: "I want to contribute to the Silent Forest, but I can't do that now." ”

"When you go, take a trip to my collection and bring a few boxes of haode tea. Van La didn't ask her again: "Master Yi is very fond of tea, he won't refuse." ”

"Xiexie you, father. ”

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

"Aha! It feels so good to be home, and I can't help but speed up my pace, as fast as I want to fly!"

In the midst of the army advancing on the Oak Road, Aaron, the commander of Mistermael, galloped in a very happy mood, and rushed from the rear of the army to the front quickly, until he saw the Radiant Cross banner, he slowed down and moved to Theodore and the others: "Finally, it will be over." ”

"If you've been to Salion, you don't feel that way. Salald said with a look of pride: "If you have seen the Vistula River, you will know that the fastest in the world is the wind, followed by the Vistula, and then the majestic and tall Salion horses!"

"If you don't think it's abrupt, Your Highness Helena. Ignoring his "reckless" friend, Salald turned his head to Helena in a rather respectful tone and asked, "I wonder if I can invite you to the castle of Salion, I believe that the people of the whole city will be ecstatic about your arrival!"

"Thank you very much for having me, Duke of Ultok. Helena said with a soft smile, "But...... You know it's not the right time yet. ”

"Oh, of course, Saarion welcomes you at any time, Your Highness. Salad smashed his mouth and said with a little disappointment: "At any time, Salion is your bravest lion!"

"I'm convinced of that!" Helena smiled and nodded at Salald and whispered.

"Why do I think this sounds familiar?" Aaron, with a strange smile on his face, whispered in Theodore's ear, "Someone seems to say that all the time." ”

"That doesn't mean much, Aaron. Theodore calmly seemed to have nothing to do with him, and made excuses in a big way: "Just as I often say, 'I am Caesar, and I will do what I say,' there seems nothing wrong with changing the title, 'I am the Duke of Brenus, and I will do what I say.'" ”

"Well, you're qualified!" Aaron stopped dwelling, "I'm sure my father must be very shocked by now, maybe he'...... Not at all shocked. ”

"Remember the first time we met, I wanted to kill you!" Aaron said with a smile, "and then Elendil stopped me with his sword." ”

"Of course, I remember that the eloquent argument of Grand Duke Brennus was truly unforgettable. Theodore smiled, "What's wrong?"

"One of the reasons my father agreed to your offer so bluntly was that Elendil recognized at a glance who this guy was. Aaron saw Theodore's slightly surprised expression, and continued with some pride: "Of course, I guess he guessed some at the time, but he just couldn't believe it, after going back this time, he will definitely beat his chest and regret it!"

"Maybe. Theodore shrugged: "If that old man is angry, I hope he won't do anything irrational, after all, maintaining peace in the north is the top priority we have to do now." ”
