清晨,和煦的微風徐徐吹拂,大片雲朵遮蔽住陽光,讓天色稍顯昏暗,涼爽的溫度讓人覺得通體舒暢。

距離夏莉娜醒來已經過了半年之久,在這期間,夏莉娜每天都會由不同的人陪著她做各種不同的復健運動,大多都是奈爾亞陪同,少部分時間才會由塞璐拉或埃尼亞陪伴。

起初只是簡單的慢跑,隨著夏莉娜的體力逐漸恢復,一些比較激烈的運動也可以進行了。上週剛可以在森林中越野奔跑的夏莉娜,今天正準備來嘗試許久未進行的射靶。
85Please respect copyright.PENANAdBuefjtHbQ
85Please respect copyright.PENANAzaTJoj2NBE
一連射了五輪,一開始仍有餘力的時候,夏莉娜還可以穩穩地命中靶心,當來到第三輪時,只是拉開弓弦就讓她覺得有點吃力,而最後一輪更是直接脫靶。

夏莉娜喘著氣,將手中新手用的練習弓放在桌上,一旁的埃尼亞連忙遞上水瓶和毛巾。向埃尼亞道謝的時候,她可愛的臉蛋上浮現的笑容,讓夏莉娜忍不住揉了揉他的腦袋。

不知從何時開始,嬌小的曾孫女慢慢地在夏莉娜心中開始佔有一席之地,雖然仍然思念著萊爾,但是焦燥的心情隨著日漸相處,慢慢的平靜下來。

只要繼續保持下去,用不了兩年就可以動身出發。夏莉娜默默地想到,碧綠眼眸中閃爍著名為希冀的光彩。

「不過埃尼亞,今天遊俠學院不是要上課嗎?妳怎麼有空陪我?」

「嘿嘿,我告訴教官說曾祖母大人會教我的,教官馬上一臉羨慕地讓我請假了。」埃尼亞雙手叉腰,得意洋洋地說道。
85Please respect copyright.PENANA25njfLCnNu
85Please respect copyright.PENANAxEvWNCGlqw
85Please respect copyright.PENANATlrOsBdDB4
不要把我拿來當作請假的藉口啊!夏莉娜強忍著說教的衝動,只是埃尼亞實在太可愛,最終她打消了這個念頭。
85Please respect copyright.PENANApO059G4hBo
85Please respect copyright.PENANAw6ZTDE3CoY
85Please respect copyright.PENANAQ5nnv3OvuG
「不過埃尼亞,騙人可不行喔,比起學院的教官,現在的我根本無法讓妳更進一步。」夏莉娜沮喪地垂下頭,看著不斷顫抖的手掌。
85Please respect copyright.PENANA9qIeTOszoS

如今的她,身體的機能大幅度下降,只不過是勉強能夠使用訓練弓的廢物罷了。

夏莉娜驚訝地抬頭,見到的是埃尼亞與平常憨傻模樣不同的認真表情。
85Please respect copyright.PENANAmiEu0sIPMc
85Please respect copyright.PENANAGA1KBKviJg
85Please respect copyright.PENANAgN5VsfWwt1
「曾祖母教的知識都很有幫助,教官他們只不過是學院派出身,哪裡比得上您身經百戰得來的技巧呢?」埃尼亞說話的同時不停地靠近她,「更何況他們教的東西最早的源頭也是來自曾祖母,哼,什麼魔法箭矢一開始被認為是旁門左道,我看只是他們的腦子不知變通的蠢貨而已啦!」
85Please respect copyright.PENANAuMgOSXzZ8q

看著埃尼亞氣噗噗的樣子,夏莉娜忍不住笑出聲來,用欣慰柔和的眼神凝視著她。

要是當初在翁拉席恩的時候,有人能夠支持她的話,或許她也不會選擇直接離開。夏莉娜連忙搖頭將這個念頭掐斷,要是不離開的話,現在就看不到可愛的埃尼亞了。

就在夏莉娜忙著安撫埃尼亞之際,一旁的走道外傳來了急促的腳步聲。不一會兒,聲音的主人就出現在夏莉娜面前,是眼熟的橡樹守衛。
85Please respect copyright.PENANAn9bGbM2oaz
85Please respect copyright.PENANASVBcblpKbp
85Please respect copyright.PENANA9hTzLmQw1y
「夏莉娜大人,抱歉打擾到您。」守衛氣喘吁吁的向兩人行禮後,連忙說道:「有來自塔菲恩王國的緊急信件,女王陛下要您即刻帶著埃尼亞前去會議廳。」
85Please respect copyright.PENANADajKhzIseJ
85Please respect copyright.PENANAKFPZ3hKxsg
85Please respect copyright.PENANA5EWdIj9846
還未等夏莉娜回應,一旁的埃尼亞臉色立刻顯得倉皇不安,她緊緊抓著夏莉娜的衣角,一言不發。
85Please respect copyright.PENANAALPJWOtoA1
85Please respect copyright.PENANArri6iwzuBM
85Please respect copyright.PENANACV3HBBMr8D
儘管內心有著不好的預感,但是夏莉娜還是強撐著臉上的笑容,帶著埃尼亞快步離去。要是兩個人都表現出慌亂的模樣,只會讓氣氛更加惡劣。
85Please respect copyright.PENANAKs7oLrVfsg
85Please respect copyright.PENANArnFP0fEiaq

來到了熟悉的會議廳內,塞璐拉仍坐在首位,正面有難色的看著手上的信件,當她看見夏莉娜和埃尼亞時,整個眉頭幾乎都皺成一團。
85Please respect copyright.PENANAqSOsGOhMQS
85Please respect copyright.PENANAIGtVSNVP3M
85Please respect copyright.PENANAuo4OFvlPvs
待到兩人就坐,夏莉娜率先開口。
85Please respect copyright.PENANAZQs1OQCKuI
85Please respect copyright.PENANAga6EIE54cf
85Please respect copyright.PENANASyOxkQAWF7
「塞璐拉,是萊爾的信嗎?」
85Please respect copyright.PENANAoNQ8vY8CJp
85Please respect copyright.PENANATMJ4y03zbQ
85Please respect copyright.PENANArPFXT2sDPo
「是的,加急信件,應該是六個月前寄出的。」
85Please respect copyright.PENANAZggsaISZoK
85Please respect copyright.PENANAPxJt0LDA1V
85Please respect copyright.PENANAzX5RuFmBn8
從塞璐拉的手中接過信件,夏莉娜將信擺在她和埃尼亞都能看到的地方,從頭開始確認信件的內容。內容並不長,大多是在詢問埃尼亞諸如過得好嗎、開不開心等小事。
85Please respect copyright.PENANAWjIIWTDIcj

但當夏莉娜看到結尾時,她只覺得在那一剎那,心臟似乎短暫的停止了跳動。
85Please respect copyright.PENANAYiynQ4BJVm
85Please respect copyright.PENANAsGVQNkZhrg
「——當妳看到這裡的時候,埃尼亞,我的寶貝孫女,希望妳能夠盡快回來讓我能夠再看妳一眼,願妳幸福安康,愛妳的爺爺。」
85Please respect copyright.PENANAgWhaVEszst
85Please respect copyright.PENANAptskHfzw5e
雖然沒有明說,但是夏莉娜和埃尼亞已經明白其中蘊含的意義。
85Please respect copyright.PENANAcmpxV1UTS0
整個會議廳好似時空凝滯般,一切都陷入了靜止中。唯一能夠聽見的,只有那微乎其微的呼吸聲。
85Please respect copyright.PENANAAq2c6Z1M88
85Please respect copyright.PENANA1HjEg7lqZH
85Please respect copyright.PENANAc6TmGJCGtN
夏莉娜看了一眼塞璐拉,發現她撇過頭去,不願和她對視。又看了眼埃尼亞,只見少女正低著頭,雙手緊緊捏住衣服,手指關節因用力過猛而微微泛白,感覺到夏莉娜的目光後,埃尼亞身子縮了縮,讓她看起來似乎變得更小隻。
85Please respect copyright.PENANAWdAfvGLeoa
85Please respect copyright.PENANA6F8whnud0D
85Please respect copyright.PENANAsQav5KVMyI
如果可以的話,塞璐拉並不想要將收到信件的事情告訴夏莉娜她們。要是夏莉娜得知這個消息,肯定會選擇立刻出發——無論她的身體是不是完全恢復到以往的狀態。
85Please respect copyright.PENANAIZlDHk8Rab
85Please respect copyright.PENANACRgDbOlv2Y
85Please respect copyright.PENANAhkGxWctHBR
依照她的私心來說,如果姊姊能夠一直陪伴在她身邊,直到姊姊離去為止,那樣是最好的。但是她也明白,若是因她的自私,而這麼做的話,姊姊只會收穫悲傷和痛苦。
85Please respect copyright.PENANAV60IsftYI4
85Please respect copyright.PENANAdbIvmrgyO3
85Please respect copyright.PENANAm1TxDeEwF5
時間已經奪走她太多的東西,塞璐拉無法眼睜睜看著她承受更多的痛苦,那樣對她實在太過殘忍。於是,塞璐拉閉上雙眼,靜靜等候那一刻到來。
85Please respect copyright.PENANAJRxoWd4C5y
85Please respect copyright.PENANAJKLsW6Ytso
85Please respect copyright.PENANAc0ZrHgkudx
「塞璐拉,對不起,我可能……要毀約了。」夏莉娜說完後,她才驚覺手掌心和後背,全都被汗水給浸溼。
85Please respect copyright.PENANAaqauyuHzKf
85Please respect copyright.PENANAAeae1vRqYa
85Please respect copyright.PENANA74axBZ2FYL
儘管心中已有定案,但是塞璐拉從未覺得,簡單的幾個字竟然如此難以說出口。
85Please respect copyright.PENANA5i95y3RLov
85Please respect copyright.PENANAxhEPLRfIdL
85Please respect copyright.PENANAqjRDqteOUa
「我知道了……」
85Please respect copyright.PENANAa44sArM9le
85Please respect copyright.PENANAMP5Ww0srRV
85Please respect copyright.PENANAdrlCoI0MNj
夏莉娜猛地抬起頭,難以置信地看著塞璐拉,她都已經做好心理準備會被拒絕了。
85Please respect copyright.PENANA2euOccgE67
85Please respect copyright.PENANAfsAUwpxHEw
85Please respect copyright.PENANAuNlrxmetp8
「請不要用這種眼神看著我,難道我在姊姊心中是那麼心胸狹隘的人嗎?」
85Please respect copyright.PENANAeM1xCVarEK
「對不起。」
85Please respect copyright.PENANAH5IFXuzLRD
85Please respect copyright.PENANAJSLYJVe8cW
85Please respect copyright.PENANAgNBMzoULer
「姊姊無須向我道歉,要是我的話,我也會做出一樣的選擇。」雖然說著安慰的話語,但是塞璐拉的思緒卻是如驚滔駭浪般湧動。
85Please respect copyright.PENANAFs6awRfysQ
85Please respect copyright.PENANAcpgmd76XNf
85Please respect copyright.PENANAk5Xn9bupTG
就在這時,一旁的埃尼亞突然開口。
85Please respect copyright.PENANAuS3yzrnBiD
85Please respect copyright.PENANAPJ01aGAuoa
85Please respect copyright.PENANA4uEo6KGhrg
「但是,曾祖母,您的身體還沒有完全恢復,這樣子未免太危險了。」
85Please respect copyright.PENANAjp8HdvMy8K
85Please respect copyright.PENANAGIpdCEc93S
85Please respect copyright.PENANAsZfLKlJCun
是啊,埃尼亞說得一點也沒錯,以她現在的身體狀況別說長途跋涉了,就算是一個多小時的運動都會讓她氣喘吁吁,抱著這樣的身體,她真的能夠安然無恙的抵達塔菲恩王國嗎?
85Please respect copyright.PENANAERFFpjtUI2
85Please respect copyright.PENANAM8d0bdp7qu
85Please respect copyright.PENANAZ6bTf6e5yQ
儘管充滿了未知的風險,但是夏莉娜已經下定決心。要是因為猶豫的緣故,讓她失去見到兒子的最後機會,想必在人生最後的幾年內,她肯定會陷入無盡的後悔,倒不如乾脆一點盡早行動。
85Please respect copyright.PENANAeqNN07n3bX
85Please respect copyright.PENANANjJkw9MY8S
85Please respect copyright.PENANAn5r2bknNy4
於是,夏莉娜伸手按在埃尼亞的頭頂,溫和地說道。
85Please respect copyright.PENANABTOqggPpTz
85Please respect copyright.PENANAog0O4zitPX
85Please respect copyright.PENANAvr87VYQQE2
「有些時候,儘管明知前方就是危險,但仍必須勇往直前,這就是人生給我們的難題啊。」夏莉娜有些感慨地說道。
85Please respect copyright.PENANAJWfAPAtbKS
85Please respect copyright.PENANAZrqMNpz2sI
85Please respect copyright.PENANAcuuWDU0ECt
埃尼亞原先黯淡的眼眸在聽到夏莉娜的話後,瞬間重振光彩,似乎因為她的話受到激勵一般,她激動地大喊。
85Please respect copyright.PENANAcahZWNXxWH
85Please respect copyright.PENANAFjzj62pcoH
85Please respect copyright.PENANAH1rceELh87

85Please respect copyright.PENANAN47mQV48QH
85Please respect copyright.PENANAh1s8zf4EhP
「我也會特別小心的,雖然戰鬥力基本沒有,但是我好歹還是有著非常豐富的冒險者知識,應該或多或少能夠提供一些幫助。」
85Please respect copyright.PENANAI7iVpUXQuw
85Please respect copyright.PENANA2RgrTwfGLO
85Please respect copyright.PENANA0Bfyv1Nhfp
就在兩人打算結束話題的時候,一旁自同意夏莉娜請求後一直沒有開口的塞璐拉陡然開口。
85Please respect copyright.PENANAcU8o9QsDU3
85Please respect copyright.PENANADpSsMp7W5b
「既然要離開了,還有件事情姊姊必須要去做。」
85Please respect copyright.PENANAetg8a5LxVE
85Please respect copyright.PENANAp78j4m3jNw
「我知道了,是什麼事呢?」
85Please respect copyright.PENANApZG9W1hbQc
85Please respect copyright.PENANAaH7RyrbzLJ
將這件事情一直隱瞞至今,塞璐拉的內心深感不安,但是事到如今,已經不是繼續隱瞞的時候了。
85Please respect copyright.PENANAUOwfvhkJYc
85Please respect copyright.PENANApubx7cUkZq
85Please respect copyright.PENANABZdkKYRZlU
「姊姊必須得去見母親最後一面。」
85Please respect copyright.PENANARcCYCvleO2
85Please respect copyright.PENANAWGpejmt5BT
85Please respect copyright.PENANAU16W2qjAIE
母親?可是她不是已經……?夏莉娜抬頭,面帶驚容地看向塞璐拉。
85Please respect copyright.PENANAQ7NZJRIswx
85Please respect copyright.PENANAUTv2KkL6SE
85Please respect copyright.PENANAVzqVc984ay

85Please respect copyright.PENANAWhwyyj4PU8
85Please respect copyright.PENANArQpqrXeM2I
「妳是什麼意思!?」夏莉娜難以保持冷靜,她激動的站起身,身後的椅子倒在地上發出巨大聲響。

85Please respect copyright.PENANA7a8wVANrah
85Please respect copyright.PENANAJmtzjPNBjL
