fish man and lady

"Big sister must also like it..."

"No!" He abruptly interrupted what Kerla might say next.

Although he was looking forward to such an answer from the bottom of his heart, he also clearly knew that this was impossible.

Tiger buried his face in his blood-stained hands. When he recalled what happened that day, he couldn't control his emotions very well, especially when he thought of Elizabeth that day.

He paused for a while before continuing to talk about something he had never told anyone before: "She hates me because I ruined everything about her, whether it was her home or her life, and it was me... who killed her father."

Kerla's eyes widened in disbelief. She is still at the age of ignorance of feelings. This is probably the first time she has heard of such a complicated situation.

"Just pretend you haven't heard anything." He wiped his face and rubbed his forehead. After the headache symptoms were relieved, he was finally able to show a relaxed expression to Kerla. "You came to me to hear a story, right? Let me think about it, what should I tell this time?"

This topic was brought up by him before, and it was never brought up again, but since then he has allowed Clara to enter "that" room, and the location of the storytelling has also been set there, which can be regarded as his selfishness.

In this way, at least when telling stories, let him recall the past time. At that time, Elizabeth was also attracted by the stories in his mouth, and the sparkling lights in his eyes were all lit by him.

Every day, every day, he prepares unthinkable stories, waits for Kerla to knock on the door, looks at her expectant eyes when she enters the door, gets nervous when he hears the ups and downs of the plot, and then... Or when he heard that the protagonist was relieved to be out of danger, he had the illusion of going back to the past.

But the little girl in front of him is only 11 years old, her eyes are not as emerald green, her hair color is not as bright as moonlight, she doesn't have the beautiful face of a girl in memory, she doesn't have wisdom beyond her age, and her small hands can't play any music. chapter.

She is not Elizabeth, what he is doing now is just low-level self-suggestion and satisfaction, through Kerla, imagining how Elizabeth still "likes" him.

But those days are coming to an end.

Although the sun sign also landed on her back, Kerla was going to disembark after all. After all, the purpose of their trip was to send her home.

When the ship docked, the brothers on board knew it was time to say goodbye.

He was the first to disembark, waiting for Kerla, who was already very different from the beginning, to bid farewell to her voyage. She was saying goodbye to everyone with joy because she was about to see her parents. She smiled with tears, but several people on board The willful brother couldn't help crying.

Most of the people on board had no pleasant experience with humans, and even on the contrary, those dark pasts made them hate humans, but they all had to admit that Kerla was a lovely girl, and she brought them a lot of novelty happy.

He also used this voyage to understand that humans and murlocs (murlocs) can coexist peacefully and understand each other, and the opportunity for this lies in the children who still don't understand anything.

He... can he continue to try to believe like before?

"Mr. Tiger! Let's go." Kerla trotted to his side, and took his hand actively.

This was the same address as Elizabeth's at the beginning, which made him unconsciously raise the corners of his mouth, and replied, "Ah, let's go."

Kerla's hometown is not a rich place, but it is simple and natural. The large farmland grows enough food to feed the entire village. Occasionally, you can see farmers still working, but the sight still makes him feel uncomfortable. Only Some children would simply look at him with curious eyes, but unfortunately, before he could turn his head, those children were pulled away by their respective parents, for fear of meeting his eyes.

"There! My home is there!" Kerla's cheerful voice drew his attention back, following the direction she pointed, what he saw was a nondescript bungalow, and a person in front of the house was drying woman in clothes.

As he thought, her family background was not good, but it was the most beautiful harbor for her soul.

And now, the boat is heading home.

He let go of his hand and let Kerla run over by herself. The woman who was still doing housework was stunned for a moment when Kerla called, and she didn't let go until Kerla ran in front of her. Holding her in his arms, the lost treasure was found, and wept with joy.

After that there was nothing for him.Tiger thought this way when he turned around, but Kerla's words behind him made him curl his mouth involuntarily, and a new hope was ignited in his heart.

"Mr. Tiger!! Thank you for sending me back! I will never forget what happened on the boat! I will tell everyone that there are many good people among the murlocs! That... really... thank you!!! "

He didn't look back, but waved his hands casually, as a farewell to Kerla.

He couldn't help but said to himself in his heart: Let me believe it again.

【Mr. Tiger, I hate you! 】

The girl's sharp voice sounded in his heart, like a dagger, piercing straight into his chest, reminding him that he was the sinner in a certain matter, and there was no possibility of being forgiven.

"Forget it...at least the result of this matter is good now."

wake

Tiger tried his best to focus on recalling the smiling face of Klare and her mother just now, and couldn't help thinking that what Otohime Niang Niang said was right.

【Perhaps we should think more about the next generation. The hatred of this generation will end with this generation, let the children understand each other and start a new future...Those 'next generation' who don't know anything have the ability to change everything. 】

But after a while, the navy before him told him it was all just a fishing net of lies, and he got in just as they expected.

"I'm the Rear Admiral of the Navy Headquarters," the Rear Admiral, who had a weird haircut of more than one meter, said to him indifferently, as if he were looking at a dead thing, "We received a report from a resident of an island and learned that you You will come to this island, and everyone in the village you just visited knows that there will be a commotion here, and as a condition, we will let go of the little girl who once belonged to the 'Tianlong people'."

Following the man's gestures, the muzzles of the surrounding guns aimed at him in an instant, and there was no way to escape!

"You are accused of two crimes, and you should be aware of it, attack and... escape!"

Although the second "crime" terrified him, he was relieved a little. At least they didn't know about Elizabeth. Also, since she came out, Elizabeth hadn't left the room because of coma, and she probably didn't know that Elizabeth was taken by him. walking people.

The sound of shells came from the distant harbor first. It was obvious that the navy was already attacking their ship, and they were unprepared... By the way, Elizabeth is still on board!

"Are you still worried about others at this time?"

Even if he has stronger strength than now, facing hundreds of navy and their guns, the result becomes obvious. He no longer knows how many bullets have entered his body, and the blood is draining rapidly, making his consciousness It gradually became blurred, and what he could see became less and less. In fact, at the moment he started fighting, he released the beast trapped in the depths, but he remembered Elizabeth halfway. It becomes just throwing people far away.

It is already considered a miracle that such a fighting style can last until everyone comes to save people.

"She... what about her...cough! Liz...Where is Liz!?"

"Boss! You don't talk,"

"Tell me!" He had a bad guess in his heart, and when they chose to avoid it at the same time, the guess continued to increase, "Tell me! Now!"

Still no one answered, but this is already an answer!

He was taken to the snatched navy ship by everyone, hoping that the medical equipment there could save him. His blood type is very rare. Fortunately, Aladdin found a usable blood bag from the blood bank, but the problem is that it is human blood. .

"Stop! Don't lose to me, I don't want to live on that kind of blood!" He yelled with little effort, "That's the blood that has despised our murlocs for a long time! I won't accept it! I— —Will never give in to them!"

The biggest secret for him, he finally told it to his brothers. Although it was not all humiliation, it was also a real glimpse of the madness of human beings. After seeing these things, he knew that Princess Otohime was right. There is no way to stop the beast in my heart, not to mention that even Elizabeth is not here now.

【Those people killed her! 】

[It was also me... who killed her! 】

"I... can't love humans anymore!"

"This is not acceptable, Mr. Tiger." The girl's hoarse voice suddenly broke in, and all the murlocs and mermaids present were stunned. At some point, a slender figure appeared at the door, "As Patient, you must listen to what the doctor says, don’t you?”

Tiger couldn't believe it and wanted to support his body and look over there. He was afraid that it was just an illusion before his death, and he was afraid that it wasn't an illusion. He didn't know how to face her.

"Mr. Tiger, you must not listen to the doctor's advice. Otherwise, without a healthy body, you will be like me, and you will not be able to go anywhere." Eliza was drenched all over.
