章節 127: An Old Friend

Tauriel could feel her heart pounding as King Ashburn rubbed the tiny green crystal on the necklace she was putting on. She didn't have it out like that and always hid it under her cloth but Ashburn had walked to her and pulled it out.

"The stone of Avalon, resistant to magic." The elf king said. "I thought I banned this from my kingdom and yet you have one for yourself and a spare to give the human you have blindly fallen in love with."

"Leave her alone, you have me now right?"

The king let out a chuckle louder than a normal chuckle before turning his gaze to Jude.

"And what offense did she commit?" Jude asked.

"Interrupting a fight in the arena."

"Interrupting a fight in the arena." Jude chuckled. "Or do you mean saving a human's life which happened to be my own life, I think that's the real offense here."
