Chapter 217

[12th Round] The Little Mermaid

But I wasnt here to meet this mermaid. As the name of her job suggested, she had to actually guard something to be a guardian.

My goal was further into her territory.

The entrance, covered in seaweed and blocked by coral, opened like an automatic door as she approached.

One could, of course, simply break down this door and enter. But then the anti-theft system would work, which would ruin everything.

Safety should always be ones top priority.

I was able to reach my destination without any problems.

Phew I already thought about it before, but I want to put this mermaid in formalin and keep it with me.

A deceased mermaid was hugging Holy Sword B, the real reason I was here.

Race: Mermaid of Chaos

Level: 1

Job: Sea Queen (Sea Patronage )

Skills: Patronage Z, Destruction SS

Status: Petrified, Protected, Dead, Storage

If Ullullu was the King of Freshwater, then the mermaid hugging the Holy Sword B was the Queen of the Sea.

They were full of ambition, like my dear comrade Noebius, which was why they became kings. Moreover, Ullullu and this mermaid received their jobs due to the geographical features of their environment.

Surprise: That is truly a Holy Sword! Its the same one you inserted into the secret socket of the golem. There seems to be nothing that you dont know, cadet Kang Han Soo.

Trainee Teacher, did you not know about this?

Confirmation: I didnt see it in my school years. Even in the collection of materials that I can view as a trainer, I saw only one Holy Sword with automatic functions, although I have heard from friends and seniors that there are different types of Holy Swords. That aside, I dont understand why the sword intended for training was hidden and sealed here.

Trainee Teacher, dont worry about that. Otherwise, wrinkles will appear on your forehead.

Someone could explain everything to us anyway.

The Holy Sword Lavade (Love Aid)s name, in ancient languages, means a sword that makes a loved one stronger. It is made of a special alloy, with the help of which its power increases in proportion to the owners love. However, it has been divided into parts. In its current state, it cant even display 1% of its true strength anymore. You probably already know since youve already used it, but it has a strengthening effect. It was split between dimensions since they didnt want to destroy it, but at the same time, it shouldnt fall into unwanted hands.

Thats how

I understood what Ssosia was trying to explain.

It was as if it wasnt really needed, but it was a pity to throw it away.

But I dont know who this mermaid is. She is beautiful, as befits her race, but she feels somehow special. Even her appearance Regardless, I cant identify her. How about asking the mermaid youre holding?

Really? Hey, fish, talk.

Kh? A-a-ah! I wont say anything!

The mermaid closed her lips tightly, so I tore her fin a little. She immediately screamed, and tears flowed from her eyes.

Even though she was in incredible pain, she still didnt say anything.

How troublesome.

She kept whimpering, but it didnt matter.

This MAX-Cla.s.s Hero didnt like torture. I preferred getting information straight from the brain.

This time, I chose an even simpler option.

Saintess H.

Resurrect, my servant.

Saintess H, whose Divinity reached the level of G.o.d, was different from ordinary saints.

If the victim had only 1 level, then they were treated with traditional medicine or medicines. They couldnt even dream of resurrection if the worst happened since the patient didnt have enough experience points for it.

But she was different.

She resurrected using her experience points.

But the resurrected one would be under complete submission to Saintess H until they could return all experience points they owed to her.

Oh? Slowly opening her eyes, the mermaids refres.h.i.+ng voice echoed, reminding me of sea waves.

Race: Royal Mermaid

Level: 999+

Job: Sea Queen (Sea Patronage )

Skills: Patronage Z, Charm MAX, Captivity MAX, Singing F, Seduction F

Status: Resurrected, Protected, Storage, Confused, Submission

Previously, Boss K died at the Festival of Heroes, and when he was revived, the Chaos Elf race disappeared, and he became a High Elf instead. The same was true for this mermaid.

In addition, once she was resurrected, due to her incredible beauty, her Charm had reached MAX.

Even her puzzled face was charming.

But the face of the guardian, on the contrary, looked grim.

Tell me, what is your name? asked Saintess H in a calm tone, but it was just an order disguised as a question.

The sea mermaid, who couldnt remain silent, replied immediately.

I am the nineteenth Mermaid Queen Porseranians and the keeper of the sword Lavade, which was left to me by my comrade from Earth.

Nice to meet you, Pomeranian.

Amazing. This mermaid had the same name as the dog breed that my neighbors raised.

My name is Porce

Silence. Do not interrupt the Hero when he speaks.

I-I apologize Pomeranian apologized, cringing.

This mermaid was more polite than the one who tried to erase my memory.

Congratulations on your resurrection, Mermaid Queen Pomeranian. I dont know if you still have the right to control mermaids, but even if you dont, I will be raising you in a special salt.w.a.ter bath that will be built by next year, so you have nothing to worry about.

Ah, okay Thank you? I probably should be grateful to the Hero who will raise me. Its just that I just revived, and I dont know how to behave in this world yet

I see.

Thats how it should be. My race succ.u.mbed to s.e.xual attraction and eventually sank to the point of being human pets Since this is our destiny, I just have to accept it

This sea fish was smart.

No wonder she was the Queen of the Mermaids.

Can you still control your kind?

Its possible.

That should never be allowed, o great mother!

As soon as the Mermaid Queen Pomeranian confirmed my belief, the guardian mermaid immediately intervened.

Traitors should be quiet.

Ah

As soon as she gave the order, the guardian mermaid immediately fell silent. Her body shook at first as she tried to resist, but she soon found herself frozen.

Pomeranian replied with sorrow in her voice.

My race, like squid going to sp.a.w.n, strive to get to men, driven by s.e.xual attraction. Whenever sailors caught my relatives, some of them would be butchered and eaten, while others were tied to the bows of s.h.i.+ps, turning them into tourist attractions. That caused a storm of hatred in me, which in turn made me order all mermaids to refrain from following their desires from then on. However, I was betrayed and killed. Now that I have resurrected, I shall become the Heros slave. Give me any order. All the mermaids of this world are yours.

It seemed that the mermaids killed their queen because of their excessive s.e.x drive.

And the queen became disillusioned with her people.

Will they follow your order?

Yes. Any mermaid in the water will follow me. After all, all the seas of the world are connected. Through the waves, they will hear my song and obey.

What about the mermaids in freshwaters?

If I go to the freshwaters and sing there, they will have no choice but to follow me. Im of royal blood. I care not if Im in freshwater or seawater.

I see

I was worried that it would be difficult to get seawater, but it looked like raising her in the imperial palace wouldnt be a problem.

I let go of the mermaid that I had been holding in my hands all this time.

After all, since I had the Mermaid Queen, who had such a fraudulent ability, I could calmly control the rest of the mermaids.

Yet, what was more surprising than that was that her ability wasnt displayed in her racial traits.

Type: Race

Name: Royal Mermaid

Rank: Legendary

Ability 1: Never disappear when in water.

Ability 2: Gifted with incredible beauty.

Feature 1: Increased charm effect.

Feature 2: Increased seduction effect.

Feature 3: Ability to transform the lower body.

Race 1: Perfect singing skills.

Race 2: Beauty is inherited.

The Royal Mermaid race was much better than the regular Mermaid. Never disappear when in water? That was why her corpse had stayed intact here all this time.

She had the protection of the waters on her side.

To think she was far from being patronized by the universe!

I learned the mermaid submission song from the eighteenth Mermaid Queen. Even if an ordinary mermaid learns it, she still wont be able to use it. She will simply die for touching the forbidden. Only mermaids from the royal family can use it since we have the protection of the waters. Once I die, the song will be lost forever.

What an interesting explanation.

Can humans learn it?

Im afraid thats impossible, Hero. After all, humans and mermaids have different vocal cord structures.

So its all about vocal cords?

Huh? Yes, probably

A song that could subdue all mermaids

Wasnt it tempting?

Query: Disciple Kang Han Soo, do you want to take possession of all the mermaids?

Trainee Teacher, your suspicion saddens me!

My mother wouldnt forgive me. Shed beat me until shed destroyed her tennis racket.

Ill learn it when we get back to the palace, Mermaid Queen.

As you desire, Sir Hero.

Command all the sea mermaids to gather on the seaside in the northern part of the Central Continent.

Everyone? Can I find out the reason?

Carefully stroking the queen between the 6th and 7th cervical vertebrae, I replied.

War.

Sea mermaids would serve as fine marines.

***

The Mermaid Queen got scared because I decided to collect them not for the harem, as she expected, but for war, but she was under the rule of Saintess H, removing her right to refuse.

Hearing the Queens song, the sea mermaids gathered in the port.

In the waters, beautiful mermaids with naked upper bodies gathered, weapons made of huge fish bones or monster ribs in their hands.

If I took into account that more mermaids were completely submerged in the waters, it would become impossible to even count how many of them actually gathered here.

Moreover, their number continued to grow.

I didnt know there were so many mermaids living in the sea.

I watched this picture from a s.h.i.+p that was five times the size of the rest of the fleet.

I wasnt the only one surprised by it.

Woah!

Hehe Oh?!

The idiots on the s.h.i.+p stared at the mermaids as they drooled. Some of them even fell overboard.

Mermaids swam up to the knights and soldiers who fell into the water from all sides and pulled off all their clothes. An hour after, theyd be found exhausted on the sh.o.r.e not far from the port.

That wasnt surprising at all.

After all, the fighting skills of mermaids, who specialized only in seducing men, were negligible, while the monsters living in the sea were incredibly strong compared to those living on land.

Therefore, like anchovies and other small fishes, mermaids had no choice but to reproduce as many offspring as possible.

I clicked my tongue.

If they were born human, they could become mistresses of wealthy merchants or aristocrats and live happily ever after. Otherwise, theyll have a hard time surviving.

Hmph! They have such beauty only because they were born mermaids. I dont feel even a bit of pity for them. Ssosia reproached me after hearing my monologue.

You are not in a position to say that.

What about me?

Your chest cant be real. Thats one of the antics of your race, isnt it?

Why do you keep insulting me? You touched them all night, and now you say that?!

Those two are completely different topics.

Its the same, beast!

Listening to Ssosias tantrums with one ear, I pointed north with the cane in my right hand.

There was no need to wait for everyone to get together.

After all, there were already enough mermaids gathered.

Forward!

Order of the Emperor! We are sailing away!

Forward!

Forward!

Doo-oo-oo-oo-oo!

Doo-oo-oo!

Having received my order, the soldiers blew into huge pipes made of huge sh.e.l.ls.

And all the s.h.i.+ps deported and sailed. The mermaids swam alongside them!

What a great sight.

Babakh!

Thunder and lightning had blessed our way into battle.

The wind was so strong that it could tear our sails, but the s.h.i.+ps of the Holy Mollan Empire didnt need sails at all.

It was all about the beauties of the sea.

We sailed smoothly with the help of their power, making the storm dangerous only for our enemies.

What a good day for war.

I would show the son, whom the Sword Princess gave birth to, what a real ruler should be.

Real ruler? You mean Demon Lord.

Keep dancing.

Even the cowardly demoness, unrequitedly in love with the Hero, blessed the armada of the Holy Mollan Empire with her dances.

But

Enemies!

Their navy is here!

The troops of the Northern Continent attacked first.
