「來，這是您的麵包，粥湯可以去旁邊領取喔。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ92AFP4HalW
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCX7bKfEiYG
「真是太感謝妳們了。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZMZOyQnxl

「哪裡哪裡，如果身體上有什麼明顯的病痛也請跟我們說，我們會盡力協助您。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhMUAbmacS
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlv5KT6YEBg
每周同個時段，我都會和其他幾位修女姊妹提供食物給生活有困難的平民老百姓，其中也包括一些乞丐以及因戰亂而無家可歸之處的難民。我們在〈白城〉的教堂面前搭了一個小棚子，每個貧民或難民除了能領取規定的兩塊麵包以及一碗粥湯之外，我還會順便給有需要的人治病。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyzGMU39UKY
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8bCsW1EoF
不過和以往不同的是，今天王子殿下也跟來了。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjcoKtv4K9
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtwHbH12pi
聽說這是吉莎建議他這麼做的；身為一城之主，他有必要偶爾出面展現親和力，特別是有益於獸族與人類宗教的場合。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZIhUS7rYaz
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaFRjqK0fCU
不過為了王子殿下的人身安全著想，四周出現了平時絕對不會有的獸族衛兵。我能夠聽見他們移動時盔甲和武器碰撞造成的金屬聲音。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJcMUnxlvXM
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenUXzTff8V
「海倫娜，妳的身體還好嗎？」沒來由地，站在我身旁的王子殿下開口問我問題。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHc3BNzu05M
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtYyY2Pfusm
「殿下怎麼會問我這個問題？」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo0NtTLn5RM
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGPVXJvIhRU
「呃，因、因為......」王子殿下頓了一下，接著以擔憂的口吻喊道：「海倫娜前幾天獨自一人打苦鞭打太猛，連晚上睡覺時都得整晚趴著睡！太讓人擔心了啦！」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXtuQAcIjUy
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3avdjgGzIn
「哎呀，說起來確實有這麼一回事，我的背到現在還有點痛痛的。」我輕壓了一下肩膀後方的部位，依然感覺得到一絲刺痛。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGifz6w8DZ3
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8NlKCdq8z
「所以妳今天就不要發麵包了，好好休息吧。」他說：「把這事交給其他人就行了。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrZaIX99g9
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFOjiWe7PR
「不可以。」我鄭重拒絕道：「只因苦鞭的疼痛放棄幫助人們，我絕對不允許自己這麼做。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0j5loM5aJ
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmv4jhi2Wy3
「哈哈，這就是姆姆從來不讓海倫娜修女獨自打苦鞭的原因，她總會打過頭而讓自己痛個半死。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPy7aAlhzit
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUlcJL8grro
一旁，負責煮粥湯的安卡修女以開朗的語調岔話道，她是我在修道院內的好朋友。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5CSXUcH78L
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cSGuxcnjY
她一知道我選擇出外去幫忙〈白城〉之後，便毅然決然做出同樣的決定，甚至還邀請其他幾位修女一起這麼做。儘管這群修女沒有因此被開除教籍，我猜想她們再也無法回到隱修院了。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFZ1NtzUQa
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRMY6Srxynd
我感到有些對不起她們......221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxn9AuO9Fd
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWdm56KSX7p
「假使再發生這種事情，我以後就不准妳再打苦鞭了。」王子殿下說。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJzEUyS0kpp
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOzM6BjLFoj
「很抱歉，我做得的確太過頭了點......」我乾咳一聲，有些不好意思道：「我總覺得打苦鞭的時候，似乎快要聯想到什麼極為重要的事物，所以一時間打得太用力了。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRKWKLvUzW
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡez6l9LpPLa
「極為重要的事物？」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMm0Lr7LFwZ
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc86pTv5wUp
「更精準地說，是我嘗試尋找的希望之物。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIZOB9ZCzrq
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeox0fT1ajO
「打苦鞭和希望之物到底有啥關係呀？」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm82vbmFzLE
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlp3sD7DD9t
「我也不是很明白，但至尊陛下會在適當時機給予我答案。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ZlH49saDC
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtET2SRzk66
「又是這種詭異的思考模式......」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspBuqWS7Zk
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHcMTsBQ9SK
此時，我聽到更多貧民們走上前的腳步聲，因而將擺在桌上的麵包遞給他們。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡriqrFWJKSR
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ74OGByPcH
「謝謝妳呀，海倫娜修女。」其中一人這麼說道：「妳真是我們的天使。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFfn1x66ALN
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvVRBspnAd
即使看不見對方，我仍報以一抹微笑。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Wt44sT844
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfCbj842sV1
「話又說回來，這麵包怎麼嚐起來怪怪的。」殿下忽然說。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB9k4V2aoAk
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpS9mBMuEBI
「殿下，您怎麼吃起用來分送的麵包呢？」我輕聲斥責他。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXqDuaCM0p
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3mqCtynkrQ
「因為超無聊的嘛。我站在這邊對民眾微笑笑得嘴都快裂開，雙腳也站酸痛得要命，吃一小塊麵包不為過吧？」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvoz65Y5Wz5
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhed9Kap5ow
「這是用稻米粉摻進麵粉裡製作出的麵包，吃起來的口感與普通麵包略有不同。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsR6J0aHkFm
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdHlwjj4HU
「咦，妳們幹嘛這樣做啊！」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnUJbPDDQTr
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZJtWwOHxH
「如此一來就不需要使用太多麵粉，也能夠做出同等量的麵包分發給民眾。殿下您其實從獸族帝國帶來不少米飯與稻米，但大多數人吃不慣這些食物。所以我們就將混合食材做出一般人比較能接受的樣式。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHi0CTYjPR8
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwb9saXWoUw
「難不成這鍋奇怪的粥湯也是如此！」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8VSSMX10h4
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcTOqgeUnP
「沒錯，這一大鍋粥湯是由米粉加上胡蘿蔔、南瓜等蔬菜煮成的，專門用來賑濟平民百姓的食物，營養與份量又足夠。據說這種調理方法當初是從西邊王國的教會傳過來的。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2rU7bx61Tg
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMlG5IAzOHW
「幹嘛不用普通的小麥或大麥做成麵包就好？難不成教會的糧食不夠嗎？」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3sy9m2xc3w
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28JRsTrdrA
「殿下至今才剛統治〈白城〉不久，任何一丁點糧食都該斤斤計較。我們教會也是為了讓人民度過這個戰火綿延的冬天，才決定用這種方式製作發放用食物，以減少普通糧食的開支。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHcIApKW7Oc
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhrDZHJcvI
「唔呃，我怎麼覺得自己一點貢獻都沒有呀！」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSm4uGMJFQY
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVnQAyQDCv
我聽見邊說邊王子殿下原地踏步的聲響，以及某種物體不斷呼嘯而過的『呼咻、呼咻』空氣聲。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8oxztluxai
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKb2uB2MTSl
聽起來簡直就像是——221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfgxhA83jU
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15efSpZQOX
「我想到了！」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYRQGbhlRx
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyNkbvkFFx5
殿下的高喊頓時打斷我的思緒。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhFSeBYcqcM
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLfQFqQCxG3
「等到未來局勢穩定後，我要在〈白城〉內蓋一座公共廚房，每天提供兩餐熱食給有需要的民眾！不論是短居本城的旅人、窮人、資金缺乏的學生等等，任何臣民在我統治下都不會挨餓！」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8iZ5RpIjvt
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jsERCbiiZ
「無論人類或野獸人嗎？」我問。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQKq0jq8gn
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVOimCKtAI
「沒錯！」殿下回答我：「對於獸族來說睦鄰與好客是高尚的道德表現，特別是分享食物給其他族群。畢竟叫動物分食給其他族群這件事情，幾乎可說是不可能的。因此當我們成為獸族後，大地之母的律法特別強調款待他族的美好。我們有一句古老諺語是這麼說的：一名成功的獸族要有容納四十張桌子的肚量。代表獸族都該有熱情好客的德行。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRAYlNS02St
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡldHClkvifv
「那真是太好了，我們人類教會也非常願意協助需要照顧的弱勢。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMNaQ4q9Ab
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCmraCHwyiq
「只不過，現在我好像幫不上什麼忙耶......」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqhjXNevu0
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxPzKJnxYt
「這樣的話，我倒有個好點子......啊，他們正好來了。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hZX296HRX
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfaVb2qZ6P
這時候，一陣急促的腳步聲正好啪噠啪噠地傳來。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYDVt5CoJv
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrXcvmF4kUp
「海倫娜姐姐、海倫娜姐姐！」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkGfzjtl8Yl
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9keVPZwqj
「能給我們麵包嗎？拜託！」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCqMKsF1uIH
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTZZPdQqMp
「麵包！麵包！」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9WbE3a5rSs
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsS06gYQGKR
隨之在我身邊揚起的，是孩子們一連串的呼喊。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4OqROSfCA
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxWFMjjafXK
「海倫娜，他們是......」王子殿下問我。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfvFpy4bbM
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWffQ4DEw6w
「這些孩子是教會負責照料的孤兒，他們的父母因為各種各樣的原因而不在了。我也是在回到〈白城〉後才認識他們的，有空時常常會講故事給他們聽呢。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4x6OB7Yii
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnzitAMq7x
「可是我又不會講故事。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLw90tm1OWq
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7smr0eXw6S
「相對的，殿下卻做得到我所無法辦到的事情。您可以和他們一同玩踢球之類的活動。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGdTOlC9KVi
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMbiYXD9IfE
「我堂堂一名獸族帝國的王子，幹嘛得去陪小孩子玩耍？」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ktzmiPioJ
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ZloI528jF
「因為殿下和他們的年齡最相近呀。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOuVF9Qgoh6
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIEN6kwscFt
「這是在拐彎抹角說我還是個小鬼囉。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaV1ALUJQaL
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXL3LxDzOJv
我好似某種呼嚕呼嚕的聲響？221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjxdj3pCvD
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuedmextAq7
「殿下剛才不也是非常熱心地想要幫忙嗎？比起站在這無事可做，陪孩子們玩至少有趣多了。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm8lZlGYbnI
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYab6FteOY
「是......是沒錯啦......好吧，我這名獸族帝國第五王子，今天就大發慈悲陪人類的幼仔玩耍！」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCa12c6rvfj
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemoFwiaoNw
「謝謝您，殿下是個好孩子。」我伸手試探了一下，然後摸了摸王子殿下的頭。他頭頂部位的毛髮的髮質比較粗和結實，不過耳背後方的毛卻意外柔軟。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJ2Ii4Sodb
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9SJOAJgmWN
當我搓揉他頭頂的時候，我還聽見某種物體不斷呼嘯而過的『呼咻、呼咻』空氣聲。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71MqQnCui1
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4JD43kEgo
聽起來簡直就像是——221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa5tfEAGwaJ
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8nlF9FeSq
「我不是小孩了啦！」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡREH5MJdmly
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqhs1gGyC8
殿下的高喊頓時打斷我的思緒。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3e4jnFTWb
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhU5UcHIrvx
「人類幼仔，我們來玩踢球，我記得你們人類最愛玩踢球了。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXymspJD7T
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpn7AhTFEDo
緊接著他轉身跑開，伴隨而來的還有一大群孩子們跑開的腳步聲。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZC4TOdJQ0h
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKV1ZJyx21u
接下來我繼續向民眾發放麵包，或者使用上天賜予我的『禮物』來給人們治療些皮肉傷，但殿下總會不時往我這邊喊道：「不要做太過頭啦！」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCMvJPNzfIJ
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhclTu9twkV
呵呵，他真的跟奧絲雅很像呢。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgkDiT8njtw
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKy5vKgbhoy
過沒多久，殿下似乎已經和小孩子們打成一片了。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOT7oQaLwr8
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3XFPghUZ3
「貓哥哥，把球踢過來！」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Fchis6Sbl
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCILIjZI136
「貓哥哥好快啊！」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6Oo1UoKdS
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW6l5NHwqd7
「貓哥哥——」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLtJ7gCokW
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkErVjSZBM
「到底要我講幾遍，我是獅子不是貓！再說你們這群人類幼仔要尊稱我為王子殿下啦！」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqTBZQTfw7y
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6kyqPvgvq
「貓哥哥，你的尾巴好長喔，能不能給我們摸一下。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3iT9PsWpdk
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCcY6VS5JSk
「當然不行！」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8dU1eDNzkc
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm5GSYK2WEP
「哎~~~~~~~~~」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAn6PzPIQi6
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6tR8DSPyX
「別以為隨便就能摸獸族的尾巴。聽著，對於一名獸族......甚至是貓科獸族來說，尾巴都是極為重要的工具，特別是用來平衡身體——」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzukIQa9LUG
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8fdHpFdvO
「「「哎~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~」」」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmwmwm3BmtP
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn25oSrK6jc
「......好啦，每個人只能摸一下，而且不能拉扯。聽見沒有？」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxYmzcIuBA5
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaiCgRlpfU6
「「「謝謝獅子殿下！」」」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1KTqTXERH
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ50uqvVunMW
「居然只在這種時候才叫正確！」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22mLvicPC9
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Lf9qWs5te
儘管嘴巴上這麼抗議著，殿下似乎仍和孩子們玩得不亦樂乎。過了 一段時間後，殿下氣喘吁吁地回到我身旁。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdO85AsvjRH
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRb2r4qtwgx
「吼喲，我明明說過只能摸一次的，那些小鬼卻一直猛搓我的尾巴，搓得都快燒起來似的。」他向我抱怨著，尾巴甩動的聲響也不絕於耳。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDiKgOPQOX
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DTbwRjer9
「但是在我聽來，他們都很喜歡您喔。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtsNfQEawU
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7y2FQLim5
「這跟那是兩回事，我的尾巴可不是玩具吶。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1cPRLT6bCg
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hgaMRmjME
突然間，尾巴劃破空氣的聲音，為我的腦袋內帶來靈光一閃。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHYSmP6F0gb
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTLjTBDqJ3
「原來如此，我知道了！」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe617vTFd9x
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIS5HPmpU02
「海倫娜，妳怎麼一副豁然開朗的表情了？」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenNkr53RMQ
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOwjdVI9Mn
「我知道我心中的希望之物了！」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7CnJXvyFo
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIFCFEtXTB
「咦，是什麼呢？」殿下問我。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsF39oRA8S1
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7u335EcGG
「就是『咻咻咻』。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXt7UkwdprU
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47s8XCwwMC
「嘎？」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwO0QS0nbaK
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtLAPDHBPfe
「有時會變成『啪啪啪』。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNoH3qcoJp
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv3jUT82K2L
「啥！」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnIWbQO2Ibk
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQA8iZyZY93
「就是殿下的尾巴喲。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUzqKJrGish
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAC2a9CgwsT
這時候王子殿下明顯頓了一下。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUUXTYyYSKR
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDIMQsoGMEC
「尾......尾巴......？」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT1UWcYgigA
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1oljhOQNp
「是的。」我接著說下去：「如同揮舞苦鞭時會發出『咻咻』聲，打中物體時則會發出『啪啪』聲的獅子尾巴。經過這一周的思索後，我發覺自己非常想要摸摸並觸碰殿下的獸尾。不知道這可不可行？」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCddIgYNDd
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4LGrrbKorJ
「就這樣點小事嗎？」殿下狐疑地問我：「剛剛那些小鬼都摸過了耶。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDmpLXZ4pg
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgM5d9nvILT
「沒有錯，這是我深思熟慮之後得出的答案；我真心希望的事物。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAz1qfcB7sR
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvRO3969Cb
「如果這真是海倫娜妳要的話，那當然沒問題。但我還是覺得妳可以提出更有......嗯，更有價值的要求。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMwI84eM85v
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOzrRgHnJo4
「不，」我搖搖頭道：「我現在最想要的，就是摸殿下的尾巴。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDj1D5qx3LH
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6pSipLFvWo
「姆，我瞭解了。那我就給妳摸吧。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPRAlvtQyeU
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4HqRn5UTd
我攤開手掌，緊接著就察覺有東西落在我的手心之中。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhT9JpF4wbb
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15oHevzUe9
「原來......這就是獅子的尾巴呀......」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbER94GZ1Z4
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡinGTMQwLnY
我一隻手捧著一段尾巴，另一隻手輕輕地撫摸著，那軟綿卻結實的觸感頓時充斥我的手掌心，完全不同於小貓或小狗。而且這根大尾巴彷彿有生命似的，不時會在我的觸摸下左右晃動。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8C2dtJtbz
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5kKmVXGhd
「要輕輕摸喲，因為尾巴是我們獅子獸族最敏感的地方，還是保持平衡、表達情緒的重要部位。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9UFOFxr7ZU
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr13le5mtCN
「真是個奇妙的部位呢。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡerAyjrBIZ3
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRpdPkeZbi
「是呀，我能將後面的尾巴操作自於，但前面的尾巴最近卻常常不聽使喚。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKk897Awdt
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlABfnwtoya
「前面的尾巴？難道殿下有兩根尾巴？」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PRRfIzD8i
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDGfYHYKYp
「海倫娜，妳沒有嗎？」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hRAyFUlvc
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡolUrLykMFr
我搖了搖頭。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvwij20aif
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pl8e9XXPW
「我也可以摸前面的尾巴嗎？」我問。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZjEDLp31j
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZMowRrj3K
王子殿下猶豫了一下，接著說：「呃，有機會下次再說吧？總覺得哪裡怪怪的......算了。妳看喲，我後面的尾巴能這樣做！」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1K4ZIz6oH8
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoN4nOpekHa
殿下話音一落，我手中的尾巴消失無蹤。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ70YyyvGQfW
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡztXXuemY5c
「呀啊！」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSdWVXsUBz
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDlUR96QJi
登時，一陣毛茸茸的觸感滑過我的左臉，然後又在我的右臉輕輕掃弄幾下。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoI51cMRkLm
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv1q3scls46
「殿、殿下！您這是在......哇啊！」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5dzllk2N9
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2ejLTZLPL
我還沒反應過來，一搓軟毛再次點上我的額頭時，讓我稍稍嚇了一跳。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwqpg1JhIU
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0n3nuIsZeN
「哼哼，貓科獸族的尾巴可說是非常靈活的喔。」殿下說道。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG3tLSz7WIC
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMEBXPoAs6B
「獅子尾巴真的好有趣喔。在這裡嗎？嘿，看我抓住它！」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFaqizd7Fw
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu31jGQlesB
「妳沒抓著喔。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo8FhzYXh86

「我一定可以抓住的，再來！」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH7EenhQZOb
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAwVlkEuvP
「又錯過了。妳得再加油點，海倫娜。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjx9O8Q1QPK
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9DKcekzOR
「呵呵、呵呵呵呵......」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc2t46eh04o
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxc2aBkrK2
我忍不住放聲笑了出來；我有多久沒像這樣開懷大笑了呢？221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCl30iLLX28

儘管雙眼無法看見任何事物，但這還是我第一次用如此親近的方式去感受一件事物......或者我該稱之為，陌生中帶有刺激感呢？221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIOlU1xzxTD
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOr8q606ly
刺激？221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoZdlIvWGe
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJl89h0pAko
這樣的感觸、這樣的形容詞，在隱修院內是絕對體會不到的，我的人生際遇......喔不，至尊陛下對我的安排真是太奇妙了。究竟是誰說看不見的人生是黑暗的呢？221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQbdbLGu4my
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZosCR3upM
至少我覺得，我的人生是十分完美而且光鮮亮麗的。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNrSGMhulaI

「王子殿下，請問我們也能玩尾巴嗎？」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOJYaWq9Nh
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFQlrReBh1
頓時間，我感覺到周圍的修女們都靠了過來。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXHyPIFslH
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ02rTgeZnDg
「只有海倫娜和殿下玩得不亦樂乎，太不公平了。」安卡修女不滿地說。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycBHLeFM9u
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmm4aCLBr4H
「對呀！對呀！發放救濟粥也到一個段落了，我們也想要一起玩殿下的尾巴！」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopffea8iyi
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdefzQNN3p
「也讓我們感受一下那根療育鞭子的觸感吧~」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEF1AFWSx3s
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHRGpPZbGf
這時我雙手抓住尾巴，將它拉到自己臉頰蹭呀蹭的。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPfUlYdkTb
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUsbDMnoRk
「不行喲，殿下的尾巴是只屬於我的。」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxWDO4Nh5M
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7acYDSsHw
「「「哎~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~」」」221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqkrUbSKPL
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLKERP5iYt
奇......奇怪了？我好像說了不太符合自己個性的話......沒關係，就只有今天、今天而已。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn05afl01q5
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopyITJWAgE
嗯、沒錯！221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpslPxUQXtR
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4OMEPiYbm
猶如從溫柔母親的懷抱之中踏出第一步，開始真正的接觸這個充滿不確定性的世界。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3EUeXjHs9
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSX1Ad7z6F
猶如從穩定卻一成不變的隱修院走出來，體驗這個世間的種種苦難與種種幸福。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYuwaCrZUe6
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy9UCEofEIP
猶如將原本空無一物的花園重新翻土耕種，期望能從中萌芽新的生命。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKFKmLi4Mz
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFaAWig4D0n
我的內心深處彷彿也在王子殿下——這頭獅子男孩——的影響下，逐漸開出更加多彩的未來與可能性。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6gjZN3prG
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8VnrU8S3e
至於這樣的改變究竟是好是壞，未來又會遇見什麼樣的考驗，這一切就交由至尊必下來定奪了。221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuspPJ2MZ3d
