Chapter 581 The Mermaid Prince (add 45 for the leader)

Mermaid prince?

The middle-aged fisherman named Im looked Heather up and down, and apart from being able to see that the person in front of him was handsome beyond ordinary standards, he couldn't see any gestures related to mermaids.

No, this appearance itself is already very problematic.

"...Please come in." After thinking about it, Im stepped aside and invited Heather into the room.

Walking into the house, I found that the house was much more normal than that eerie and gloomy fishing village, at least it was a residence for a 'human being'. The small room was crammed to the brim, and what was burning in the fireplace was not firewood.

"I wanted to ask in the tavern just now, isn't this firewood?" Heather glanced at the fireplace.

A little girl with kelp hair was sitting by the fireplace, looking at Heather curiously, as if she had never seen such an outsider.Seeing that Im was pouring water from Heather's cup, she replied, "It's peat."

"peat?"

The little girl smiled and replied: "The island is very cold, and the grass buried in the soil will not rot but will turn into peat. These are all taught by my father. Isn't it amazing?"

"Yeah, that's right, there are no trees on the island, so there will be no firewood." Heather nodded perfunctorily, and sat at the table.

Putting the tea cup filled with hot water in front of Heather, Im sat across the table and beckoned the little girl to go to him: "Come to my side, Isma."

After the little girl named Isma ran to his side, Im sighed and looked at Heather: "Then, what do you want from me, an outsider who calls himself [Mermaid Prince]?"

Heather smiled and said, "I still had some doubts before I came here. After seeing you, no, after seeing this child, I can confirm that you are indeed someone who has a deep relationship with the mermaid."

As he said that, Heather pointed towards the door: "That is a unique amulet for the mermaid clan, and no one else can forge it."

"So, so what? Do you want to take Isma away?" Im nervously hugged Isma beside him: "I will not hand over Isma to you!"

"Tsk tsk, do I have a bad face? I don't care who the child is with. This is your housework."

Heather shook her finger: "I'm just here to take a look. If the little girl is doing well, then there's nothing to do. Ask for a glass of water, then chat, and finally leave neatly. It's a simple and clear process, right? ?”

On the other hand, the little girl on the side was excited, holding her father's hand with a look of excitement: "Mermaid? Dad, am I really a mermaid? That's amazing, no wonder Dad has been refusing to tell me about my mother!"

Heather looked at Isma, the little girl didn't seem surprised at all: "Girl, aren't you surprised?"

"Oh, although my father won't tell me, but if you press those nosy brats and eavesdrop on the adults' whispers, you can always guess." I don't think I am in the age of brats at all. Isma folded her arms across her chest like a grown-up.

I really don't like children, they all look so troublesome.Heather glanced at Isma, then looked at Im again: "Don't be so reserved, just chat."

Seeing that Heather didn't come to snatch his daughter away, Im wasn't so nervous: "T-Talking about what?"

"Anything is fine. Mermaids are elves in the sea. They have a relatively friendly relationship with humans since ancient times. For fishermen, they should be a symbol of auspicious existence."

Heather tapped her fingers on the table: "Why do the villagers drive your family out of the village and hate you so much?"

"This... well, it's all because of the legend of the sea god that has been passed down on the island since ancient times."

Im touched Isma's kelp head lying on his lap, and said slowly:
"It is said that a long time ago, in the sea near here, there was a terrifying sea god who did evil. He attacked ships, set up huge waves, devoured humans, and even ate up all the fish, making this place almost a dead sea.

The mermaid family couldn't see it, and decided to challenge the Sea God.After countless years and losing many companions, the mermaid finally sealed the Sea God on this island.

The battle is over, the mermaids are gone, and the fish have returned to the ocean here.

But the sea god's power is too strong, as soon as the full moon approaches, he will stretch out his long arms and legs from the caves on the island, attacking the fishermen and passing ships on the island.

The people on the island were afraid of offending the sea god, and instead resented the mermaid who had done good deeds.Over time, mermaids have become a taboo on this sea god island. "

Having said so much, he breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the water cup and took a sip of the tea, and then said with a worried face:
"Today is also a full moon. I don't know what your origin is, but my wife has cast a spell on this room, so it is safe even in a full moon. Please stay here for one night and leave tomorrow morning, because the full moon Sea God Island at night is really too dangerous."

"Thank you for your hospitality, Mr. Im. But I am here for the Sea God, and today is the night of the full moon, which is exactly what I want."

Heather smiled and stretched out her hand, and as the illusory water flow gathered in his hand, a translucent azure crystal scimitar was held by him.

[Scimitar · Mermaid Prince]!
The moment the scimitar appeared, the little girl Isma was stunned for a moment. She could feel the grand, magnificent and harmonious singing from the scimitar, as if thousands of mermaids were singing, and as if endless waves roaring.

The breath of the ocean swept the entire cabin at once.

"The mermaid...the prince of the mermaid." Isma murmured, kneeling on the ground.The blood in her body is singing that the mermaid god is coming.

Im looked at Heather in astonishment, is he really a mermaid prince?But aren't mermaids only female?The person in front of him is obviously a man, why is he a mermaid, and he is also the prince of a mermaid.

Heather held the scimitar of the mermaid prince, took a deep breath, and then smiled: "Aha, I found it. The enemy of the mermaid, the evil sea god from the depths of the Netherworld, today will be your end."

Picking up the cooling teacup and taking a sip of tea, Heather wiped the corners of her mouth and walked out with the scimitar on her shoulders. Just as she opened the door, she remembered something, then turned to look at Im and Isma: "Tonight, whatever Don't go out if you hear any movement, remember."

What else could Im and Isma say, they could only nod their heads.

After closing the door, Heather stood outside the house and touched the mermaid amulet on the wooden door with the blade of the Mermaid Prince machete, and the azure blue light flashed across the amulet.He strengthened the Mermaid Amulet, which should be able to withstand the power of Poseidon.

Then, it's time to get down to business.

Under the bright full moon, Heather ran towards the cave in the distant cliff.
