此時，海底王殿中氣氛凝重，站在王座前的，是維奧拉與克拉維爾。235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBsKX72iiqq
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkhcbRokV9U
四周圍繞著身披銀甲的守衛與幾位長老，光從珊瑚頂垂落，照得維奧拉臉色蒼白。235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQaGR0EkbrL
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDEmB27Lzp4
王的聲音低沉，卻不容置疑：「維奧拉，方才克拉維爾所言……是否屬實？汝挾制一名無辜之人沉於海淵，且欲奪其性命？」235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvmCMD4IpQQ
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZrP9ggkNM
她咬緊嘴唇，聲音細弱：「不，維奧拉僅求與她說上幾句。除此，別無他意。」
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxU3CNMnvK
「說謊！妳將她拖入二十尺深的海，此亦可稱『說幾句』？」235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcf9Xe3NUhm
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJOR5XeH8Za
克拉維爾望著她，目光冰冷：「若非我及時趕至，她此刻早已喪失氣息。」235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9HqtgmGfx5
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYgiD8WvEdP
王的手指輕敲著水晶權杖，聲音緩慢沉重：「維奧拉，汝可知曉——人魚之律，第一條便是不得傷害無辜之人？」235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFUFBD99xZh
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4wFVy7yoYm
維奧拉臉色發白，說不出一句辯解的話。235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKy0WBdaCf
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9h1s2rXyF
她咬牙，聲音忽然高了幾分，帶著顫抖控訴：「若要追究……罪亦不在我，而在克拉維爾王子！」235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkexyOjVSqY
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTy5gILOBeE
眾人一震，目光齊刷刷望向他。235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZkQUAvV8b
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡICBF65xOIX
「克拉維爾王子將象徵盟約的耳環，交給那名人類女子——」235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfpP7rEVzxI
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4YiOJlb45R
「甚至趁著漲潮之時化為雙足，私自登岸，與那女子會面！維奧拉一時氣憤，才會想教訓那人類……讓她知難而退！」235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3fRlHBAqsB
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWEChTrI0y
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5VKbxplVHs
殿內一陣騷動。235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwZJ9nbdUS
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJiRcPQ738
王猛地站起，眼中怒火迸現：「克拉維爾——此言屬實？」235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ZlWcAGnnV
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡusrRhOccJw
克拉維爾瞳孔一震，握緊雙拳。235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhscQa8oBm
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08bJPfwQLD
他早就隱隱不安，懷疑維奧拉可能在岸上見過露蕾雅，或察覺了她佩戴的耳環。但他沒想到，她竟然一路跟蹤到會面那天，甚至親眼目睹了他在漲潮時化為人形、違規上岸的整個過程。235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZiDzNOl4e
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOsLVPlKUN0
他的心猛地一沉。235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUT2BVY2B1f
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBWUKc4QUzg
這件事一旦坐實，克拉維爾就觸犯了「王室人魚不得擅自登陸」的律條——對王族而言，幾乎等同背叛。235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq5nuFiCncL
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNtS7konbX
「克拉維爾。汝身為純血王子，竟私下與人類締下接觸！此舉之重，汝可自知？」235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHyPivCFlJ8
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32e2Qpxjuq
「克拉維爾，速答。」235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzycAM6rW6A
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3iNTRVHIDs
殿內一片死寂，連水流聲都彷彿停擺。235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtiqP1hhSEa
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTZYrGzkdS
克拉維爾抬起頭，眼神不再閃躲，聲音平穩卻堅定：「是的，父王，維奧拉所言，屬實。」235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPEWpIL460
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFMGm47iuG
「我確實在漲潮之夜化形登陸，也確實將耳環信物……贈與了那位人類女子。」235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlKjjnK06l
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGkMJTwoBm9
王震怒，水晶權杖重重敲擊石地，聲音如雷霆滾動於整個王殿：「放肆——！」235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXw5PYmiJge
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFfpkRdYMw
「汝當真把自己當作西歐？！」他怒指克拉維爾，「欲將王族與純血之名，盡皆牽入那群和平派的妄念之中麼！」235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNUr9UJgM3
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsVlBrAEH0M
在場所有人魚鰭翼顫抖，不敢出聲。235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsQbC9FcNQ
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCayEC7n139
但克拉維爾沒有退讓，他咬緊牙關，低頭再度開口：「父王……她不是旁人。」235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDAxfTw4rX9
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGluoLQzyok
「在我落入麟梟之手、遍體鱗傷時——」235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfdVK5TtPf
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW8PbrkzAAB
「是她，不顧生死地將我藏起、療傷、護庇，才讓我得以活命回到海中。」235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPC3u0bPphc
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡolxL4NnhRG
他的聲音微微顫動，帶著誠實無偽的深情：「我今日所做一切……只是回應她曾為我做過的。」235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9OjWOLNDJV
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZ0dY5CFAd
「為了報答人類的恩情，便將信物……交予她嗎？！」235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyAqn5dnY7z
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQQUcFqbMM
「父王，不瞞您說，我……」235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqWi1HZGOx
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLsuQpHthcN
「我是真心喜歡她！」235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZzFzndpwih
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw9UKcwQ0FB
此話一落，整座王殿彷彿被漁雷擊中，四周瞬間響起一片激烈騷動。235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipIa6jP2fi
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0LM6ttchE
眾魚紛紛議論。235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbYV5wheOP3
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡha8UJvCYUF
銀甲守衛相視錯愕，長老們交換眼色、低聲私語，幾位使者更是難以置信地抬起頭。235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCdU2VTEN6
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2YldFkfCOc
人魚與人類相戀，從來不是禁忌，只是不多見。和平派的戀情，歷來默許。235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxiyENqqTQz
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy9fUe2MwvP
但——出自王族？出自純血？ 還是身為王位繼承者的大王子？235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLBfBifM98N
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqXD1DL778q
千年來未曾發生的事，如今竟在克拉維爾身上發生了。他低頭不語，卻並非羞愧，反倒是平靜、悲壯。他知道，這一步他已無法退回。235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxAviqaVTW
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPFUHiVnfE
「真心喜歡她？故此，汝竟打算與人類締下契約乎？」235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJWtXf2E71
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnVL6F4bKex
「父王，我……確曾思及此事，亦曾掙扎……」235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM689hn0rdR
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZQRqV3ew0
「放肆！！」235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhICoGQ5HbD
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2PTE3hWmE
王的怒吼在整座殿堂迴盪，海水都震動。235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLyujfoNLmn
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrWZ8RcEUnj
他揮下權杖，聲音如斷冰：「克拉維爾王子，汝違犯王族律法，今吾判汝關緊閉六潮於水晶牢。其間若需履行王子職責，須由三名隨侍全程監督，且不得靠近岸邊三百呎之內。此為懲戒，亦為警誡，王族之責，不容再失。」235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8AahTdRqLb
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjStL80YODh
「維奧拉，疑似擅自對無辜人類出手，疑似觸犯全族律法，吾判汝十二潮關緊閉——即刻執行！」235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjeTz0qQvXj
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPqND5nXxA
兩旁守衛立即上前，將兩人分別押下。235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLCF2TPgpr
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDrUDS9bVi6
大殿側方，長老們低聲竊語：235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIlYWBEQ2TB
「六潮？此判是否過輕？王對王子終究仍有偏袒之意。」235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWI4vGK6uKk
「你方才沒聽清嗎？大王說的是水晶牢。在那裡，一日之苦，勝於在尋常牢房熬上一整潮。」235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgxP91JnSj
「如此說來……雖是六潮，實則重到極處。」235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBRYhqoof5J
「況且近來潮水不安，王子恐需早日復任。或許正因如此，大王才會選擇以苦厄之牢代替漫長之期。」
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡta7oWtYFT0
對克拉維爾而言，那並非能輕易渡過的時日。235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2OCAdA8xPb
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo12JN6iLDc
更何況，他深知：235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIW7Af5jXG2
於人類而言，六個月足以磨盡許多情意。人心易變，她的心……能等我多久？235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3Xo0hAIZC
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzkSMNE3kd
此刻，他的胸口像被海壓重擠，不是為了自己，而是為了那個在岸上的女孩。
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3cgrWeQ4a
臨走前，王最後看向克拉維爾，語氣更重了一層：「克拉維爾，六潮之後，若汝仍執意靠岸，王子之位，當即廢除，由汝二弟繼承！」235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9rJqDIQJL
235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVYnEcyZ86K
整座殿堂又再一次陷入死寂，唯有命令如雷鳴般留在每個人魚的耳中。235Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJPmSVQaCw
