Journey of the Infinite Wizard

Chapter 528: Seduced Xin Ge

One dawn, near the end of spring, when Lucien danced over the verdant hills, she suddenly burst into song. Her song was so earnest, as a lark crossing the threshold of night, seeing the rising sun on the wall of the world, singing among the dying stars; Lucien's song freed the earth locked in winter, and the frozen springs She began to sing softly, and where her footprints passed, flowers broke through the cold ground and bloomed.

Then the voiceless spell left Beren, and he called to her, calling Tinuviel; and all the forest echoed that name. She stopped in amazement, and watched Beren come towards her, but did not run away. As she watched him, doom fell upon her, and she fell in love with Beren. But she shook off his arms and disappeared from his sight; it was just dawn. Beren fell dazed to the ground, as one slain by a mixture of grief and joy; he fell into a deep sleep as in an abyss of shadow, and awoke stiff as stone, and desolate as a forsaken soul. He wandered in the forest in a daze, like a suddenly blind man groping desperately in the dark, reaching out to catch the suddenly fading light. In this way, he paid a painful price for the fate that fell on him; Lucien was also captured by his fate. As an immortal elf, she chose death for Beren, so that she could freely accept his fate; Among the elves, no one has ever suffered as much as she did.

And Lúthien, against Beren's will, returned to the darkness in which he was, and brought him light; and in this hidden kingdom they wandered many days hand in hand. Lúthien came often to Beren's side from spring to summer, and together they walked quietly through the woods; and none of the other children of Iluvatar had ever had such joy, though such a time.

Daeron the bard also loved Lucien dearly, and he followed her, saw her meeting with Beren, and told Melian about it, and Melian carried the news to the North. King Thingol was very wrathful, and loved Lúthien more than anything in the world, and thought no Prince of Elves was worthy of her; nor was Mortal Man worthy even to serve him. He questioned Lúthien with astonishment and sorrow; but she answered nothing, and did not admit it until he swore that he would neither kill Beren nor imprison him.

At this time, Elu Singol was extremely angry in his heart. He hated this human being named Beren. He thought it was this vile and shameless fellow who had lied to his daughter, and he thought that Beren wanted to take his precious daughter away from him. At this moment, Xin Ge had lost his long-standing wisdom and self-cultivation. He was like a dragon staring at the thief who was about to steal his treasure. Although he was very angry, he still wanted to see for himself how divine this human being who tried to steal his daughter was.

For his precious daughter, he did not hesitate to rush back to Doriath from the north. In fact, when Melian delivered this message to him, Elu Singol was also extremely surprised. What followed was monstrous anger. In his eyes, no elf prince is worthy of his daughter, let alone a mortal who is mortal? In fact, for the lifelong happiness of his daughter, Elu Singer once had a suitable candidate, but the latter would never agree, and he knew this clearly in his heart. Because he knew very well that in that person's mind, he had always regarded him as a brother and Lucien as his niece, and he would definitely not accept this request.

then,

King Thingol wanted to send someone to bring Beren back to Menegroth like a prisoner, but Lucien took Beren to King Thingol before him, as if he was the most honored guest.

Elu Thingol looked at Beren angrily and contemptuously, while Melian remained silent. "Who are you?" said Thingol, "that you have the audacity to come to my kingdom like a thief without being invited?"

Beren was too frightened to speak a word under the splendor of Menegroth and the power of Elu Thingol. So, Lucien introduced him to his father, "He is the son of Belemir, the enemy of Morgoth. Belemir also accompanied you in the north to fight against Morgoth. The deeds of human heroes are known in the west." Widespread."

After hearing this, Elu Xinge felt a little surprised. He didn't expect that this "thief" was actually a descendant of his comrade-in-arms Paize. However, despite this, he still said to his daughter Lucien with a grumpy face: "Let Beren speak for himself!" Thingol said: "You sad and unfortunate mortal, why don't you want to avenge your father, but instead want to take revenge for your father?" Like a thief, you broke into my country without my permission, and you know that ordinary people are not allowed to enter here. What reason do you have for me not to severely punish your recklessness and stupidity?"

Beren looked into Lucien's eyes, and into Melian's face; he seemed to know what he had to say. The fear left him, and the pride of being a member of the ancient family of Men came back to him; and he spoke, "Lord Lord of the Elves, Fate has brought me here, and I have traveled and dived into the North, and I have experienced dangers such as no one in the Elves How many people can do it like me. I wanted to join the coalition army to avenge my father, but fate led me here. Here I found the beauty I wanted to pursue. Since I found her, I would never Give up. For she is better than countless treasures, above all. Neither mountains, stones, nor walls, nor even the fire of Morgoth, nor all the powers of the kingdom of the elves can prevent me from obtaining this treasure. For your My daughter Lucien is the most beautiful of the children in this world, because of him, my life can shine brightly like the sun."

The whole hall was dead silent, and all the people in the hall were dumbfounded and terrified; they all thought that Beren would die on the spot. And because of his confession, Lucien's beautiful eyes cast tenderness on Belen's body. However, Xin Ge opened his mouth, and he slowly said word by word: "You dare to say such disrespectful words, and you will end up dead. If I hadn't made a hasty oath without thinking about it, you would have been decapitated. I regret the oath Not to kill you, you low mortal, learned to be as cunning as Morgoth in the North in the shadow of Morgoth. You lie like Morgoth, you act like his slave spies, quietly Sneak into my country and abduct my daughter!!!" He glared at him, "Your father died bravely in battle, you didn't want to avenge your father, but went back to the south alone, sneaked into my country, and used lies to fight with you. Honey words to deceive my daughter, you mortal mortal, what right do you have to touch my daughter?"

Beren replied to Xin Ge in a neither humble nor overbearing manner, "No matter how annoying my behavior is to you, whether I should die or not, you can kill me. But I will never accept your slander of me as a despicable human being, or a demon. Spy and slave of Goth. By this Ring of Finrod, a gift from himself to my father in the Northern War, a gift that affirms my father's loyalty and deeds. He is honored in the North Die in battle, a hero who died in battle against Morgoth, and no man, elf or king, can insult my house!"

His words made Lucien's beautiful eyes shine brightly, and everyone looked at him intently, except Xin Ge who was dismissive. In his opinion, what Beren said is purely boring, and his family is even more ridiculous. May I ask, in this world, what family dares to compare with elves? So he thought of a way, and he also planted the root of disaster because of the thought that came from this thought and the fleeting shadow in his heart. He said: "I have also heard of Belemir's valor. Listen to Beren, no matter what you say, I will not give you my daughter who is the most precious thing. She is in your heart. The supreme treasure, I also need a treasure." He leaned on the throne, "Fernor once created three Silmarils, which were taken by Morgoth and set in his crown, you fetch it for me One to prove how much you love my daughter."

In fact, Xin Ge was fascinated by Jiang Ning's supreme grace after seeing the Elven Silmaril inlaid at the end of Kunguhar and the magic ring inlaid with the gem in his hand. He also longed for the Silmarillion, but he couldn't do it to Yinenville, whom he regarded as his elder brother. Therefore, when he was tired of Beren's entanglement, he thought of the elves created by Fernor. At the same time, he also wanted to use the hand of Morgoth to get rid of this daring human being who coveted his daughter. But he didn't know that his words had already decided the fate of Dorias, and at the same time he and Dorias also fell into the curse of Mandos.

After hearing this, Beren laughed and taunted Xin Ge, "Why is this so difficult? I never thought that the Elf King would sell his daughter for the artificial jewelry. King Xin Ge, if this is your wish, then I will go to Do. When we meet again, I will hand you one of the Silmarils from the crown of Morgoth. Then you will not despise the son of Belemir."

Then he looked into Melian's eyes, and she said nothing; so he said farewell to Lúthien Tinuviel, bowed to Elu Thingol and Melian, and pushed aside the guards beside him, and departed alone, leaving Menegroth.
