Shura of the Beastman

For the crew who have lived at sea all year round, they are definitely experts in fish cooking. After the group of tiger sharks were all boarded by everyone, the kitchen made an absolutely delicious shark feast under the command of the captain Nit. .

"Dear Ivan, I got a jar of fruit wine from the captain." Before starting, Pei Qian held a big jar and put it on the table, looking at Ivan with shining eyes, "How about a drink?"

Ivan thought the proposal was good, looked at Helegal, "Do you want a drink?"

"Okay." Even though the jar was still sealed, Helijiaer still smelled a little wine. In fact, he is also a person who likes to enjoy himself, so he naturally has no resistance to good wine and food.

"You're injured, so why don't you drink it?" Ivan looked at Heresul, who was beside him. Although it was in a questioning tone, the action of directly taking the wine glass in front of him already showed that the objection was invalid.

Heresul was startled, glanced at him, and then nodded obediently.

Seeing the interaction between the two, Peixi pursed her mouth slightly, but she didn't say anything. She opened the lid of the altar, and a burst of fragrance wafted out, which was very appetizing. He poured a cup for Ivan first, and then He poured it on himself and Hellegal.

"To celebrate my brave battle with tiger sharks today, cheers!" Pei Qian raised her glass and stood up, smiling very happily.

The three of them were also infected by his smile. They stood up and clinked glasses with him, and then drank it all in one gulp. Naturally, except for Hereshul's tea, everyone else got fruit wine.

The taste of the fruit wine was sweet, which made Ivan lick his lips with satisfaction.

"Peixi, do you have a problem with that tiger shark king?" After the four of them sat down, they began to taste the shark feast. After eating a piece of stewed shark, Ivan suddenly remembered and asked.

"Well, tiger sharks originally lived in this sea area between the north and south continents. Ten years ago, the tiger shark king, who was still a baby shark, somehow came to the sea area where our mermaids live and wreak havoc on our seabed. I even injured several mermaids, I beat it up in a fit of anger, and chased it all the way around half of the Southern Continent. Death, I have already boiled it and ate it." Pessy said lightly, but Hellegal was surprised to hear it.

"City under the sea? Is there a city like a continent under the sea?" He had never heard of it.

Pessie nodded, "Yes, and the seabed is many times larger than the land, but there are not cities everywhere, because although there are countless species on the seabed, there are humanoid and intelligent ones like us mermaids. There are very few. As far as I know, there are only about ten ethnic groups in the sea areas around the northern and southern continents. I went to the Mobi sea area this time. There is a city under the sea. The whales live in it, but they have orcs. There is no distinction between orcs and non-orcs, in fact, we mermaids are the only mermaids in the seabed, there is no distinction between orcs and non-orcs."

"Then... if the people on land intermarry with the ethnic groups under the sea, do they want to live under the sea?"

"Other underwater groups still follow the laws on land. Non-orcs have to live with their orc partners. That is to say, if your orc partner is a group of people in the sea, they will naturally go to live under the sea. We mermaids follow our partners' preferences. , on land or at the bottom of the sea.” So the mermaids are well-deserved best companions!

"How can people live in the sea?" Will they not suffocate?

Pessy smiled, "Every seabed group has different ways to make people on land live in the seabed, but we mermaids..." He suddenly looked at Hellegal, under the gaze of the latter, that A layer of tears gradually appeared in the light blue eyes, and Helijiaer was startled by the appearance of being about to cry.

"Don't cry..." He said in a panic, and raised his hand to help him wipe away his tears, but he didn't expect something to slip into his palm. When he looked down, it turned out to be a pearl the size of a grain of rice.

"This is?" He widened his eyes in surprise.

"This is the tear of a mermaid." Pessie picked up the little pearl and explained, "If a mermaid forms a partner with a non-mermaid, no matter whether they live in the underwater city or not, they will give it to the other party made of mermaid tears." As long as you wear this accessory, you can swim in the bottom of the sea without fear of suffocation, and live in the bottom of the sea without fear of buoyancy."

"It's really amazing." Helijiaer took the pearl he was holding, held it up in front of his eyes, and played with it carefully. This mermaid family is really special. It would be great if there were mermaids in the sea area of ​​the Northern Continent. There is no distinction between orcs and non-orcs. , can be treated as non-orcs, which can also relieve the pressure on the reproduction of the Northern Continent. I don't know if there is a way to make them migrate or capture them?He thought about it a few times, but his expression remained the same, "Is it true that you can swim freely on the bottom of the sea just by holding Mermaid's Tears?" If it is true...

"It's not that easy." Pei Qian shook her head, "Not all mermaid tears have that effect, like the one in your hand, it doesn't have any effect, it can only be treated as a general decoration. The tears shed when you are in love will be effective, hey, the pearl bracelet on Ivan's left hand is it."

Everyone's eyes immediately turned to Ivan, who was eating hard. Hearing his name being mentioned, he raised his head, swallowed the food in his mouth, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"You accepted the tears of the mermaid?" Heresur looked at him, his voice was a little hoarse, didn't he say that the tears of the mermaid were a gift from the mermaid to his partner?His acceptance meant... no, not necessarily, there must be some other reason for this.

"Oh, you mean this bracelet?" Ivan suddenly realized, and gently pulled up the sleeve of his left hand, revealing a string of black pearl bracelets, each crystal round and as big as a thumb, faintly exuding a faint halo , compared with the white pearl the size of a grain of rice just now, it is really shabby.

"Oh, I can tell by looking at it, you haven't taken it off since I gave it to you, so happy, so happy." With a look of surprise on her face, Pei Qian immediately moved to Ivan's side and rubbed against him, completely ignoring that someone was ugly. complexion.

"Could it be that, Pessy, you... used to like Ivan?" Herregal asked softly. According to the characteristics of a mermaid, it's not unbelievable that Pessy would like Ivan, but somehow he felt a little uncomfortable.

"It wasn't in the past, I still like him very much now!" Pessy said solemnly, and then touched the string of black pearls sadly, "But Ivan doesn't like me."

"Peixi, I like you." Ivan raised his hand and rubbed his hair, and said softly.

"I know, it's not the kind of liking for a partner." He yelled dissatisfiedly, "It's the first time someone likes someone like that, but who knows but was rejected, I'm so sad."

"That... I don't quite understand. Didn't you say that the finished product of Mermaid Tears is given to your partner? How could Ivan have it?" Helegal was very puzzled, they are not partners!

"There are two types of mermaid tears, one is the tears shed with love and joy, and the pearls turned into flawless pink pearls; the other is tears that contain love and sorrow, and the pearls turned into are my tears. This kind of black pearl in my hand." Seeing that Pei Qian was depressed, Ivan answered on his behalf, stretched out his hand and pinched his face, and there was a nostalgic expression on his face, which made Heresur at the side slowly hold her hand tightly. fist.

"I still remember the year I met Patsy. It was the first year I traveled away from home after my graduation. In the southernmost seaside town, the sea area where Petsie grew up..."

"At that time, the only doctor in the town just passed away. For some reason, a strange disease began to spread in the town. When everyone was gradually panicking, Ivan appeared!" Pei Qian's tone seemed to be that he was the savior like.

"Actually, that strange disease was caused by a mutated bee in the forest. People in that seaside town liked to eat honey, so it spread quickly. I just happened to see this happen in other places. Tell them that as long as they bake the honeycomb and eat it, they will be healed." So it is good to go to many places.

"But at that time, Ivan was so gentle. He checked one patient after another and comforted those underage children. His body seemed to emit a holy light, which was extremely beautiful." Pessie recalled the original scene intoxicated. , It is the most normal thing to feel that your heart will be moved.

Hearing this, Heresur looked at Ivan as if he was touched. He always knew that he was such a gentle, beautiful, bright and kind person, who attracted the attention of others and made people reluctant to let go. His dark red eyes glowed There was an intoxicating tenderness.

Helegal, however, became more and more unhappy the more he heard it. He admitted that Ivan was a very good non-orc, but isn't it an exaggeration for one or two of them to be devoted to him?He looked at the bright eyes of Pessy looking at Ivan, and couldn't help but feel a little depressed, but he didn't know what to say, so he drank the fruit wine in his hand to soothe his mood.

"What happened later?" Heresauer asked, although he didn't participate in those years, he still hoped to know a thing or two.

"After everyone was fine, the people in the town and our mermaid clan held a grand thank you ceremony for Ivan. You didn't know that the single orcs in the town and the single mermaids in our clan all confessed their love to Ivan. Come on!" Pessy looked at Heresauer, curled her lips, and said intentionally, "But he rejected them all. I originally thought that a gentle person like him would accept the overtures of others because he couldn't bear to accept them." Or change the subject, after all, there were so many people who confessed to him that day! But Ivan still seriously and resolutely rejected them one by one. Ah, he is so charming! I really like him so much. Ah~~~" He couldn't help but waver.

"He refused you too, why is he so happy." Helijiaer said sourly.

"Hehe, don't you understand? Ivan has been to many places, and he has met countless confessions, but I am the only one who can get such pampering treatment from him. But it's very special~~~" Pessy's proud expression made Herregal even more depressed, and Herresul felt uneasy.

He is not afraid of Ivan being confessed, he is just afraid that he has a special existence other than him.

"Pacey is indeed very special." Ivan said with a smile, his expression was very gentle.

"Why?" Heresauer asked eagerly.

Ivan looked at him, with unclear emotions in his bright black eyes, which made him startled, "Because the day after the ceremony ended, I immediately left the town and went to the desert. Go, to the edge of Rhaegar Desert, which is already thousands of miles away from the town, but I didn't expect that Patsy would come after me." He still remembered the shock and astonishment when he saw Patsy again, "You know what? ?The closer to the desert, the drier the air and the more precious the water. Although mermaids can live on land, they must stay in the water for a while after a while. At that time, Pessie was fighting with me He fainted immediately after saying hello, fortunately I have not entered the desert, otherwise he would have died of lack of water before he found me."

Heregal's heart tightened when he heard the words, and he became a little jealous of Ivan.

"I thought he came all this way to find me for some life-saving purpose, who knows." His almost sighing tone made Heresul feel sour but also guilty.

If only he had come back sooner...

"I like you. I think you reject other people because you think they are insincere. Who knows that you are because you have something to belong to, and people think that this can impress you." Patsy said pitifully.

"Peixi, I was actually moved by you at that time." He smiled softly at him. In the years to come, no matter how many people confess to him, no one will chase him like Peixi Chiri then said 'I like you' to him.

He was really moved for a moment, if it wasn't for his own belonging, he thought he would accept Pei Qian, knowing that he was persistent, so he could only tell him about the past with Shura, let him give up, and then watched him break down in front of him. The teardrops turned into crystal black pearls and fell to the ground. The crisp knocking sound made him feel sad and guilty for rejecting other people's feelings for the first time.

It was also because of Pei Qian's incident that he chose to practice in the remote mountains and old forests. Humans are emotional animals. If he came a few more times, he was really afraid that he would be the first to betray Shura.

"But you told me that the so-called special liking lies in the word 'independence', no matter how good others are, they can't compare." In fact, he is very unwilling, he just lost to time.

Heresul lowered his head, his dark blond hair fell slightly, covering his red eye sockets.

"Ah, Hellegal, you actually drank more than half of the fruit wine secretly, you are too much!" Pessy suddenly exclaimed, pointing at the drunk Hellegal, no wonder he didn't hear his voice , "I just had a few sips!"

Helegal raised her eyebrows and looked at him, her drunken scarlet eyes were full of mist, and her half-smiling expression brought out a charming and seductive expression, which made Pei Qian stunned.

"You've been talking about the past, good wine and good food are in front of you, I don't want to waste like you, of course it's reasonable to eat and drink quickly."

"You're too treacherous!" Peixi puffed up her cheeks, grabbed the wine jug and filled it for Ivan and herself, "Dear Ivan, let's eat quickly, this guy can't be cheap!"

"It's really partial, Ivan is the only one in Pessy's heart!" Herregal said lazily, as if joking, but there was no half-joking in her eyes.

"Of course!" Patsy nodded unconsciously, causing Hellegal's expression to change slightly.

The two were bickering here. Ivan took a sip of fruit wine and found that Heresur was too silent. He forked a piece of braised shark meat and put it in his bowl, "What's wrong? No appetite?"

Horesul slowly raised his head, his dark red eyes were full of indescribable emotion.

He looked at him, and said softly: "I have a special liking... I feel from the bottom of my heart that he is the best person in the world, no one can compare to him."

Ivan stared at him blankly, then quickly turned his head, hurriedly raised his glass and took a big gulp of the fruit wine, and choked on it.

"Slow down." Heresauer patted him on the back hastily.

"...Thank you." Ivan's face was a little red, and he didn't know if it was from choking or for other reasons.

Really useless!Blush and heartbeat just because of one sentence?How embarrassing!

The author has something to say: Ah, Pei Qian is really a good mermaid~~~~

In fact, I think it would be too unreasonable if Ivan didn’t even have a heartbeat in the past ten years. After all, he has traveled to many places~~~

The preview of the next chapter, hey, wine is actually a very good thing xd~~~
