Nalia was very sad.
She sat in front of the mirror and stared blankly at the beautiful girl in the mirror, but what she thought of was another face.
That face was not pretty, it could be said to be straight-looking at best, with both eyebrows furrowed, but it had a silly seriousness to it.
The owner of the face is very hard-working. No matter what he does, he always likes to go all out and never wants to cheat.
While working hard, the owner of the face gained the recognition of the villagers with his actions, not because of his noble status. His honesty and simplicity grew into reliability and perseverance, but the burning fire also began to attract the eyes of butterflies, among which There is no shortage of well-matched girls,
The moth flapped its wings and wanted to get closer, but was stopped by the lampshade. By the time the moth came to its senses, it had lost the chance of destroying itself by smashing through the lampshade.
Now, the desperate moth has lost its last freedom.
A moth is, after all, just a moth.
The girl sighed and stood up from the wooden chair.
My father didn't urge me for such a long time. He must have been very sad and wanted to give himself more time.
But this is not a problem that can be solved with more time, and there is absolutely no point in delaying it.
She couldn't choose her true love, at least at this moment, she didn't want to embarrass her father.
The girl allowed herself a smile.
Maybe if you laugh more, you can really laugh...
Colin stood up in shame, looked at his daughter who was walking out of the room with a smile on her face, and moved her mouth twice, as if she wanted to ask something, but in the end nothing came out.
"Dad, I'm ready, you don't have to worry about me."
Stepping forward and hugging the humble man, the girl said softly while looking at the man's gray temples.
"The Coster family is also one of the best in Mithril Village. Although Jobnight is lame in one leg... he is still outstanding. His daughter will definitely be very happy."
"Nalia..."
After patting the girl on the back, the man's face was filled with regret, and he finally couldn't hold it back and spoke.
"Actually, I have lied to you all this time, Nalia. Your mother did not abandon us, but wanted us to go to Noxus with her. She...she is a terrible black mage. I I only understood this after having you..."
The sad man said slowly.
"Maybe, maybe I should have taken you to Noxus with your mother instead of coming to Demacia. Maybe if I did, all this wouldn't have happened at all, and you wouldn't have done it because...because As the daughter of an exile, you are forced to accept an unwilling marriage. How about I take you to escape? Let's go find your mother. Tonight I will ask the old groom to take us out of Demacia... "
"No, Dad, you have done enough for me. I don't want to say anything more about your choice. I just have enough of being a foreigner."
The girl let go of the man, but her tone became firm.
"It took us a few years to integrate here. We continue to wander to Noxus. How many more years will it take to integrate there?"
After a pause, the girl's tone softened a lot, and she comforted her father.
"Brother Kraken is very good, but he and I are really not suitable. Lord Galister will not agree to a mage being with his only son. Brother Kraken went to join the army and became a great hero, so we are even more inappropriate. , Demacia is a place that hates magic, this is an unchangeable fact,
Since it cannot be changed and we are on this path again, then we can only accept it. From now on, I will forget that I have magic talent. Dad, forget your choice too. None of us are wrong. "
After watching his daughter leave, the man covered his face with his sleeves and kept sobbing.
The man knows that his smiling daughter is worse than him crying.
…
In a country courtyard in Mithril Village, Galister patted his son on the shoulder with satisfaction under the shade of a tree, his beard raised.
"You brat has grown a lot taller. I'm really proud of you. He actually became the first swordsman of the Steel Swordsman Legion. You don't know that the threshold of our family has been leveled because of this incident. Halfway through, anyone who comes to me to marry me can leave Mithril Village."
"Father, please stop making fun of me."
Kraken smiled bitterly and received two slaps from his father. He only felt that his shoulders were sore and numb, and he couldn't help but secretly slander,
No wonder his father could become the patriarch of the Hilda family. With such strength, who could withstand two punches?
"How can this be a joke? I'm telling you, you're almost old enough to get married. I'll show you a few nice girls in the village. See if you can sleep with them, and I'll tell you to marry them."
"Father, forget it. You know, I don't like them."
Kraken shook his head. He regretted going home first. If he had known that he was being forced to marry, he might as well have gone to see his sister Nalia first to confirm her feelings.
If you want to urge her, you have to urge sister Naliya, right?
Naturally, he didn't know what his silly son was thinking. Galister's smile faded slightly and he suddenly sighed.
"Don't worry about your sister Nalia. Her father has accepted Jobnight's proposal. You..."
"Nalia... is going to marry Jobnet, that lecherous cripple..."
Galister's face was a bit ugly. Although he knew that his son did like the daughter of the black mage from Noxus, he didn't know that he would like him to the point of losing his mind. The most important thing is that Meng Gourd would never be seen like this. infatuation.
"If you want to climb to the top of Demacia, you can't have anything to do with magic...
Alas, Kraken, after tonight, you will understand my painstaking efforts..."
Kraken could no longer hear the comforting words Galister said later. The swordsman who could cut off the heads of Freljord bandits with a mithral steel sword without changing his expression left his home in a daze and walked in confusion. On the unfamiliar street, I couldn't hear anything or see anything. My head was buzzing and a ball of mush.
A true heart-wrenching feeling is a hundred times more painful than the Freljord's cold front piercing the body.
It wasn't until it was confirmed that Nalia would become someone else's wife that the boy understood what the girl who always appeared in his mind when he was most alone meant to him.
I am an honest person, I don't know how to lie, I just know how to do things stupidly.
I have never liked anyone else, I am sure of this, except Naliya.
For me, Naliya is half my life.
And now, half of his life is gone.
Young feelings began to sprout from seeds, but were snatched away by others when they were about to blossom and bear fruit. The strong young man walked forward with tears in his eyes. When he came back to his senses, he found that he had unknowingly arrived. Arriving on the cliff where I grew up.
At the same time, the young man also saw the familiar figure kneeling on the edge of the cliff, making a praying gesture.
"Nalia..."
