精靈族的壽命目前最長到一千年。他們的特徵是金黃色的頭髮、白皙的皮膚、尖尖的耳朵、修長的身型。舉止優雅、目光靈敏、慧心巧舌。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeK6RKmVZqc
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8hFQEE3QZ
他們善良且愛好和平，所以不太會干涉其他國家的內政，不過也有到各國去奉獻的族人。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHg8i15Zh1
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8kpMNFp8j
精靈族會成為遊俠、魔法師、祭司，也有為了保衛家園的戰士。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHx1rLZhzG1
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlcYjM6HjsL
精靈族的伊德里爾是一名祭司，曾經服侍過諸多王朝。目前在遠方的小國擔任王國裡的祭司。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00gehzIHhj
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJTi7XtyIdn
這裡的人民和她一樣喜歡平靜安穩的生活，所以跟隨現任國王搬到了遠離其他大國的大陸上生活。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIe17cGNJAH
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzX6ivP6Vle
伊德里爾在這受到了人民和國王王后的推崇與尊愛。她慈愛、聰慧且和藹可親，宛如天界派來造福人類的使者，是人們理想中的女性。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmrMjSveT93
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLx4YI2GuPf
據說她至今未曾有過伴侶，這使得眾多男性蠢蠢欲動，向她投遞不少求愛和傾慕的書信。遺憾的是，她全都婉拒了。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNai62tiS8G
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfNgMC34EU
然而，在這熙來攘往的人群裡，伊德里爾眼裡冒出了一道白色的光。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0X76z0byIg
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvlUTPYglw
騎士團的其中一位騎士──阿特里奇。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDGhVPYBLj
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ70C5llXRi7
她性格冷峻，宛如一面大理石牆。雪白的頭髮、高挑的身材、蒼白的肌膚搭配銀白的盔甲，讓她更像是坐穩在城中心噴泉的騎士雕像。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzt0EIh3xu
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWbnhJV22G3
與其說她不善交際，倒不如說她只專注於閒話家常以外的事──保護國家、幫助弱者。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ZLrKryAdR
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9aoVYFWGb4
孤兒的她某天被國王收容並訓練成為國為民的正統騎士。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8SCo5gk7s
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtczHUz85AC
鮮少人見過她的喜怒哀樂，神態對她而言只不過像積木塔的中間層，就算抽掉也無關緊要。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLykK5aGc3
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡln30vgEexh
伊德里爾第一次見到阿特里奇是在與國王和王后的一次茶會，國王親口指認阿特里奇為自己的守護騎士。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOTgC1v6esN
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7D3ofmvay
那一刻，她將阿特里奇視為大人給小孩的一顆糖。小心謹慎地收進心盒裡，並期待將來嚐到的時候究竟會得到什麼樣的體驗。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvt7gcLUioB
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83ONlxLdgM
陽光明媚的早晨，阿特里奇身著軍裝、手握於腰間單手劍劍首，挺直胸膛站在王宮花園裡的白色露天涼亭前，眼前是一片人造的碧綠池塘。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRBPCTErzF1
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVdEHxiBob
她的視線自始至終沒有離開過立於湖中的女人。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLKawzZ0rCF
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqAdvn3hvH
和煦的暖光灑落在女人的編髮上，向外散發金黃色的光芒，說是天使下凡也不令人意外。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEFQVtClWv5
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5VzxmseEWK
玲瓏有致的體態、潔淨純白的祭司服、細縫成眼的祖母綠瞳、水波粼粼的湖面、綠葉成蔭的樹林，將所有素材拼湊起來足以構成一幅世界名畫。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ol1SuIu39
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqYxq4LEax
這一切不禁讓阿特里奇看得出神。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgw4yF1xrc2
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ZlITkBYJE
不。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3bBeun4TjN
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzAg8RYLA5O
她心想，只要是個人，肯定會被伊德里爾的容貌吸引。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDkoiMHgs9
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvML7OB7Wbc
欣賞美的事物乃人類的天性，更何況眼前是全國上下被譽為女神般存在的伊德里爾。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72CfoTOD5c
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkimcMLy2kq
噗通。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9jYoI0yGj
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIzBslJTVEk
阿特里奇聽見了有東西落入水中的聲音。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBo3mtFZh1
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktoLvK4o8u
兩顆眼珠如幻燈片閃過般迅速地眨了又眨，將靈魂之窗裡朦朧的景象掃去以及奪回意識的掌控權。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzgyDny5BJA
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR7UaPvtwJk
……原本置身於池中的女人消失了。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWsl90WsmvY
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenLBzRis8W
阿特里奇全身明顯一震。她竟然會看丟了如此引人注目的人。左看右看，甚至連根髮絲都沒瞧見。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYC8yhBpTqX
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqSzKxaYof
最後，她將目光聚焦在池中央。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCokdvNJZzH
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGMqpnAO7Z
「該不會……」220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDI0hrvqoB
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIEVd9dPgz
阿特里奇索性拋開如氣球那般飄上頭頂的雜念，也不管身穿多厚重的衣服，朝池中縱身一躍。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIEewQTG2ZK
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEyT8BpYmoN
果真如她所猜想──女人仰面且緊閉雙眼，正緩緩地下沉中，宛如被拋下海的金銀財寶。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLRQxPVvQFp
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLCgqnhYWuQ
阿特里奇兩手向外猛力一劃，雙腳努力擺動，朝著女人的下方前進。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhkiIDO2iNK
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNKce9efQC
最終她以扶住女人的背部以及手穿過膝蓋彎曲處，呈公主抱姿勢將她救起。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlj34N3MR2
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLrg7J34W5I
「噗哈……」阿特里奇衝破水面，忍受著衣物被水浸潤後緊貼肌膚的不適感，拖著沉重的腳步將女人抱上岸並輕輕地平放於草皮。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9WWmtN5soC
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6OGLX6gneu
阿特里奇將瀏海撥向耳背，準備側耳傾聽女人是否還有心跳。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwvRDbxIsEp
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQbav9avVU
「……」
「妳想測試我不必用上生命。」阿特里奇又將瀏海喬回原來的位置。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo9JogibnAL
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWb4Xk73UI
伊德里爾先撐開一隻眼偷瞄阿特里奇，一邊調皮地說著「被發現了呢」「不愧是守護騎士」220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKtXMUytnM
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡerqPAbNKsj
「伊德里爾大人，這個玩笑並不有趣。」阿特里奇單膝跪地，銳利的紅瞳飛快地掃過伊德里爾全身，確認有無傷勢。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtUViVVoGQT
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡybKSeHjbaI
幸虧沒有受傷，阿特里奇總算放下了對這位大人的擔心。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEbCwy1PaNR
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXSEqVS03wX
「放心了？」伊德里爾斜眼一看，朝阿特里奇勾起一個有點戲謔的笑靨。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kgSGI45hX
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoXySNofaKu
「……您這是在捉弄我嗎？」阿特里奇難得有些怒意地問道。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvIU2pv8eQ
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNV3lMVyzQf
「哼嗯──或許兩邊都有呢。」伊德里爾眼裡笑意更深，接著抬起手輕撫過阿特里奇微冷的側頰。「更多的是……想見見妳生氣的樣子。」220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKsPPItIYw
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwA9EmjsgW
伊德里爾的撫摸很輕很柔，像是在翻閱新買的書籍。指尖傳來了讓阿特里奇無法忽視的溫度，如同寒冷屋舍中的一堆篝火，讓人想要靠得更近一步。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK23jJ5J4TC
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjTqRb8yEYM
「……請您別胡鬧了。」阿特里奇一把抓住伊德里爾的手掌。「國王陛下和王后殿下還需要您。」220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0eE5KjHdyY
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPtHoFCMUO
伊德里爾又笑了，但阿特里奇猜不出其中的意涵。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxOiW9G92g
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjGC21Xw9r
片刻，伊德里爾再次發問：「阿特里奇也需要我嗎？」220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsE20zT2yfU
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuf4NeTC0XI
阿特里奇好巧不巧和伊德里爾的視線搭上了。除了像是璀璨的綠寶石之外，那是一雙期待回應的眼眸。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9T03ViQwj
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnd60wPQmiq
阿特里奇這下才明白她的平易近人是多麼的危險，一不留神便會被她牽著鼻子走。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOoz0xP6ndw
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxXtfPhkBv
不。也許自己是甘願上鉤的。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdxipA2VSP
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLg3mpxv8xZ
活了這麼長的時間究竟是如何一個人度過的呢？阿特里奇開始思考起這個問題。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHgexjH7SrW
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDmbLU1EuH
這不像平常的她。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdAGkOa9EA
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGvzmsKfNEQ
也許從奉命作為她的守護騎士那天起，兩人的未來早已被定下。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv34fAlKg7s
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0WLBnayLh
「阿特里奇？」伊德里爾見得不到應答，便伸手輕捏了阿特里奇的鼻頭220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnsA3Vu5jfr
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUA7aTwBFP8
「……」
「怎麼了──哇！」220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8XEsDQy5H
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWvpcHQTcuO
阿特里奇不顧得伊德里爾的形象，將她一鼓作氣再度抱起，並用眼神示意她勾好自己的脖頸。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaucn1rThv1
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFcyEWOruwV
「也許……需要。」阿特里奇輕笑了一聲。令伊德里爾睜圓了眼，不敢置信這塊白色大理石居然笑出了聲。220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLZcBCic7k
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyTPjeeLyQ7
「……我們回去吧。」220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCx3EsO6PEQ
