For the same reason that Anila and Aragorn could not stay in Rohan for too long, although there was no one who should have stayed in Gondor more than the two of them, after another ten years, Aragorn finally made up his mind to leave again.

"Besides, I always feel that His Royal Highness the Regent seems to know something." He said, "If we don't leave quickly, I'm always worried that our identities will be exposed."

"Oh, don't worry about that." Anila replied casually, "Our identities have been exposed. Two months ago, His Highness Exilion accidentally saw the Barakhan I was wearing around my neck. Quit."

"..." Aragorn was stunned, "You..."

How can it be?As for Anila's meticulous way of dressing the buttons to the top one every time, the part below the collarbone can't even see a trace of flesh color. In the past few years, he has heard it no less than hundreds of times. Even the soldiers complained jokingly—after all, a very promising female general appeared in the barracks, but she didn't have any benefits at all.

Of course, those people were beaten up by him and Legolas in the name of discussing military training.

Cough, that's a long way off.But even if Anila may not fasten the button once or twice, judging from the length of the chain and the accumulation of fat on Anila's chest, the possibility of Barakhan's ring being exposed is infinite. close to zero unless...

Aragorn looked at Anila, his eyes gradually became subtle and frightened.

"Shut up." Anila picked up an orange and smashed it at Aragorn's head, "I really want to open your head and let Alwen take a good look at the dirty things inside."

"If you do that, I swear to Iluvita that Arwen can only see my infinite loyalty and love for her." Aragorn caught the orange sideways and said righteously, "Okay, to be serious, Why did you let Exilion see the ring? Are you ready...?"

"Yeah." Anila's expression was very calm, only her unconsciously twisted fingers revealed the tension in her heart, "I want to go back to Rivendell, and then, I will definitely come back."

Anila has no intention of living the life trajectory of Aragorn again.Aragorn did not ascend the throne until the Lord of the Rings was completely destroyed at the age of 87. On the one hand, it was because he needed more training, and on the other hand, it was also because he had not made up his mind to take on this responsibility.

But Anila is different, whether it is her understanding of Middle-earth or the ability to lead the battle, she has spent hundreds of years to enrich herself, and she is not at all confused about her goal of becoming the emperor. , Why did she let go of the throne that was almost at her fingertips?You know, after Exilion passed away in a few years, it would be very difficult for her to gain Denethor's approval.

Undoubtedly, Anila's actions like this will definitely make Denethor furious and frantically try to obstruct it. Even if he rebels against Anila, it is not surprising at all, but first of all, Denethor has no right to oppose the emperor. Returning, secondly, Denethor's life in the original book was actually quite miserable. His beloved wife Fendolas died young, and he almost collapsed with the misuse of the crystal ball of truth and the pressure from Mordor. The proud son Boromir died in battle, and finally his spirit completely fell into despair, and he died of suicide.If he can be a little more open about Anila's return, the possibility of changing such a tragic life is actually very high, and it is not a bad thing for him, although he probably will never feel that way...

Aragorn put the peeled oranges into Anila's hands: "Since you have made up your mind, Anila, you must be able to do well."

"Thank you." Anila split the orange in half, gave one half to Legolas, and handed the other half to Aragorn's mouth, "Come on, call the queen, and I'll give you an orange. "

Aragorn didn't bother to talk to her, and Legolas' eyes became two crescents with a smile.

In the end, all the oranges went into Anila's stomach.

"So, if I succeed in enthroning, Aragorn, what are your plans?" Anila, who ate a whole orange, was satisfied, "You're welcome, Gondor is so big, you can choose whatever fiefdom you want! Hmm... ...but not Ithilien, nor Dol Amroth..."

"I..." Aragorn looked at Anila who looked at him with bright eyes and full of expectation, startled, and smiled for a while, "I think the life of a ranger is more suitable for me."

Anila didn't force him, she stared at him for a while with eyes that seemed to see through a person's whole thoughts, and smiled slightly. "Very well," she said, "whenever you persuade Lord Elrond to marry Arwen to you, come and ask me for this favor."

"Then the younger brother thanked the imperial sister first here?" Aragorn sighed, and gave a big thank you gift with exaggerated gestures.

"Stay flat, stay flat." Anila laughed and fell into Legolas' arms.

Aragorn also laughed with them for a while, and fell into deep thought when Anila and Legolas chatted about other topics.

After he fell in love with Arwen Andormir at first sight 30 years ago, his mother and sister could see his mind almost at a glance. They were indeed the people who knew him best in the world. The attitude is quite the opposite.

Anila is optimistic about the future between him and Alvin: "She loves you too, doesn't she? Don't worry, there may indeed be many difficulties waiting for you, but you will definitely get through the hardships."

"..." In short, it is completely unconvincing.

In comparison, Gilleen's opinion was much more reliable, but it also made him much more frustrated.

"My son, even with your family background, your goal is too high. This woman is the most beautiful and noble creature in the world today. Mortals and elves cannot be combined. What's more, Elrond is probably here. I won’t give you much kindness in this matter. Even if you are a descendant of Isildur, at most you will become a lord of Gondor in the future. Even if Evening Star is willing to marry, I don’t think Elrond De will agree to let his daughter give up eternal life for all but Gondor and Arnor."

Aragorn's first reaction was that it was a good thing Anila was his sister and not his brother.

The second reaction is that it's a good thing Anila is straight.

The first response is a little regret why I was born ten minutes later than Anila.

"Then I can only live a bitter life, walking alone in the wilderness all day." He said with a low mood.

"That is your fate." Jillraine replied.

"No, no!" When Aragorn came back to his senses, Anila shook his head violently at Legolas, "You must not go to Umba with us!"

According to Aragorn and Anila's plan, their last battle before leaving Gondor was to deal with Umbard's pirate rebels, and after winning the battle—of course a victory—they went straight back to Rivendell.

"You are waiting for us in Pelag." Anila said, "I dare not let you go to Umba, in case you can't control yourself to drive a boat after seeing the sea and go to Aman Island, His Majesty Thranduil is very You can't chop me off."

Indeed, the ocean has an indescribable allure to all the elves of Arda who have never been to Aman. Usually this desire is only hidden in their hearts, but if it is awakened, there is absolutely no turning back.

"But this battle is very dangerous." Legolas said, "The pirates of Umbar are notoriously vicious, and Exilion only allocated a small fleet like you and Aragorn."

"That's what Aragon and I requested. We don't want to startle the enemy. If the plan goes well, we can sneak in without anyone noticing, and there shouldn't be any casualties." Anila said, "Besides, even if Lai No matter how powerful you are, Golas, you are only a layman in naval battles, how much can you help?"

"Then I'll go to Umba with you, but never go to the beach, okay?"

"...Why are you doing this?"

"I want to see you safe and sound as soon as the war is over." Legolas opened his eyes and said seriously, "You fought bloody battles in Umber, how could I be alone in Pelag Can you stay?"

"Why don't you let Nero accompany you?"

Nero glanced at Legolas with extreme disgust: "I refuse."

Legolas glared at him even more disgustingly: "It's like someone is rare."

In the end, Anila had no power to resist under Legolas' soft and hard foam.

Umba has almost become a barren land due to the ravages of pirates. Most of the original residents either escaped or were taken captive by pirates to do coolies. The poverty and backwardness here are naturally conceivable.

Legolas stayed alone in a small hotel in Umba—let’s call these two broken houses a hotel—he couldn’t see the outside scenery, and the windows were closed by Anila’s loud noises I am afraid that he will be seduced by the sea if he takes a look outside. Although the sea is not enough for him to rush to the west immediately, but the feeling of being unable to act with such a strong desire is definitely not good.

But Legolas' excellent hearing allowed him to hear everything outside clearly.

It was very quiet at first, and Legolas could only hear the sound of the waves lapping on the beach. In the wretched place of Umba, even a seabird could not be heard, but the sound was enough to make Legolas Golas's mind has been fluttering for a long time. He imagined the wonderful shape of those waves, and the picture of those snow-white foam splashing on the sand and stones and breaking into pearls, and his heart began to itch a little.

Of course he was worried about Anila and Aragorn, but he was not that worried. He knew very well what Anila and Aragorn were capable of. The two had nothing to say about their strength or tacit understanding. The reason why he did everything possible to follow ,just because of……

Strange, why must he want to follow?

……

Probably because, he once said that he would follow the two of them anywhere?Elves have to keep their promises, right?

Without waiting for Legolas to think about this question further, the sudden crackling sound outside attracted all his attention. He immediately ran to the wall and put his ear to the window, not wanting to miss any sound.

After a while, he realized that those crackling sounds were the sound of flames burning and exploding. At the same time, he also heard the footsteps of many people running around, shouting something, but because it was too chaotic He couldn't hear what they were saying at all, but it certainly wouldn't be happy words.

With so many people, it doesn't sound like the fleet of Gondor, but pirates?Legolas thought, Anila and Aragorn must have set fire to something belonging to the pirates. Hearing the movement, there were quite a few things burned.

The fire burned for a whole night, and the sound gradually subsided until it was almost dawn, and the sound of fighting and killing outside also disappeared, and the regular lapping of the waves re-entered the elf's ears.

It was only then that he realized that he unconsciously breathed very lightly, clenched his fists tightly, and his nails sank into the flesh.

Just by listening to the sound, Legolas could imagine how spectacular and intense the scene outside was last night. His heart was beating extremely fast, and he really wanted to run out of the room to have a hard time. The background is The blue sea burning with crimson flames, the scene is really beautiful when you think about it.

Alas, he probably never had this chance in his life.

Legolas was thinking wildly, the door of the room opened suddenly, Aragorn and Nero quickly flashed into the room, and then quickly closed the door.

"How's the situation?" Legolas asked impatiently.

"It was a great success. We burned [-]% of those pirate ships." Nero said proudly, "Has Anila not come back yet?"

"Isn't she with you?" Legolas' heart, which had been so excited, suddenly slowed down a beat.

"She was gone when the fire started," answered Aragorn, "should—hey! Legolas, come back!"

Legolas didn't hear what Aragorn said behind him at all, he rushed out without thinking, and rushed straight towards the sea.

"Anila!" He ran all the way to the beach without panting, where there were all charred black ships that were still glowing with scarlet sparks. From left to right, you could see the end at a glance. The scene was very spectacular, Lego Lars was not in the mood to watch, he couldn't feel the waves wet his boots, he just searched for the figure of the brown-haired green-eyed woman, "Anila!"

"Lord Legolas?" A soldier who was also Anila's subordinate passed by him and looked at him inexplicably, "So you are here this time, and I didn't see you last night. What are you doing now? ah?"

"Ah - General Amastassia, did you see her?" Legolas asked him, grabbing his shoulders, "Just after the fire started."

The soldier shook his head honestly: "No."

Legolas let go of him, and looked around with his eyes wide open. There were not no people around, in fact, there were many people, including the navy of Gondor, pirates who were tied up in a series, and Umber who burst into tears and cheered happily. Fishermen, except Anila.

He stood there in a daze for a while, feeling empty in his heart, until his eyes were sore and his boots were soaked in seawater, then he suddenly woke up and looked around at the situation around him.

The cool sea breeze gently brushed his face, and there was a smell of burnt wood, but it was quickly overwhelmed by the salty smell of the ocean. Under his feet was a soft golden sand beach with a lot of colorful shell fragments hidden. Looking, Legolas couldn't help but hold his breath.

It is a large expanse of water, but it is not enough to say that it is water, because ordinary water can never be so beautiful and magnificent. Legolas stood on the beach, looking at the sea in a daze, behind his back It is a round of red sun that is about to burst out. In front of you are a few remnant stars and a white moon that is about to sink below the sea surface. It is still emitting a faint faint light. The ocean seems to be shining. The silvery-white light of the moon is reflected on the sky, the silver is shining brightly, and the blue-green phosphorescence is dotted with blue-green phosphorescence in the stars below the sea surface, as if the starry sky and the ocean are inverted.

There is also the gentle and lingering sound of the waves, which is very affectionate and attractive, like a mother calling to a wanderer, or a gentle murmur between lovers. How can anyone resist this kind of temptation?

Completely unconsciously, he took another step towards the sea. Someone shouted beside him, but he couldn't hear a word, and his heart and ears were filled with the ocean's call to him.

"I'll go! What are you doing? Didn't I say that he must never see the sea?"

"He rushed out by himself! You didn't see how fast he ran, and he disappeared in a blink of an eye. My lungs were almost bursting and I didn't catch up with him."

"Trash!" Anila cursed angrily, threw the head of the pirate's head she had cut off by herself into Aragorn's arms, and chased after Legolas, "Legolas! Wait a moment!"

Legolas was looking at the distant sea horizon with joy, as if he had seen the picture of himself driving a boat there, the snow-white sails reflected the orange sunset, or it seemed that the sky was full of stars. , he will definitely not be able to tell where is the sky and where is the sea, thinking that he is sailing in the starry sky.

Oh, how he would like to build a ship and sail there now!

He wanted to take another step into the sea, but suddenly a hand came out and clamped him firmly.

"Legolas!"

Legolas was brought back to his senses by this shout, and turned to look.

Anila held him tightly, there was still a black charred mark on her face, some messy hair was blown up by the sea breeze, only the two big green eyes looking at him were still dazzling.

Legolas thought he would never see a more beautiful sight than the sea.

"What do you want to do?" Anila panted slightly, pouted her mouth in aggrieved way, "You promised me that I would never cross to the west now."

The restlessness in Legolas' heart suddenly calmed down, and the sea behind him was still sending out seductive signals to him, but the attraction seemed to be greatly reduced at once, and the drumming noise of the waves quickly faded from his ears , the coldness of the sea water under the feet gradually became clear, and the place on the arm held by Anila's hand continued to transmit a warm touch, even the crystal green sea water under the light seemed to be pale compared with Anila's eyes Pale.

"Of course." He laughed, "Didn't I say that I would go anywhere with you? At least until Anila dies, I will definitely not travel west."

Although his face seemed relaxed, Legolas's heart was definitely not as calm as it appeared on the surface.

He seems to like Anila, what should I do?
