The Mermaid King stayed in the Dragon Kingdom for three days.

He finally accepted the fact that his son had been taken away by his own brother.

That old rogue dragon!

She kisses his son twice every day in front of him.

The key is that his "wooden" brain can't process that fiery, refined scoundrel!

The Mermaid King realized that if he stayed any longer, he would easily suffer a heart attack from anger.

So, I decided to set off back to the sea.

Before leaving, he knocked on Si Jin's door.

At that time, Si Jin had just received a communication crystal ball.

Hearing the knock, he spoke up: "The door's unlocked, come in."

The Mermaid King pushed open the door and entered, looking at his son's thin back, and couldn't help but sigh.

My heart clenched tightly, aching with both pain and guilt.

"Jinjin, what new message did you just receive?"

"Oh, the fairy sent messages to all the countries, saying that McCarrin has been captured."

"Now, it has been sent to the magic circle in the Elven Kingdom, ready to be executed. Those interested can go and watch. But..."

Si Jin glanced at the tired king and gestured for him to sit down in the chair.

He sat down beside her and poured himself some tea, adding, "However, the capture of Ferrion was met with resistance from all the citizens of the Mermaid Kingdom."

"What do you intend to do..."

"I'm going back." The Mermaid King gritted his teeth, and with some effort, he managed to say, "I'm going back to capture Ferrion myself!"

"I took his fish bones as an apology."

“Let’s go together.” Si Jin glanced at him, hesitated for a moment, and then called out on behalf of the original owner of the body, “Father.”

The Mermaid King is young and promising, but his only flaw is that he is not meticulous and is easily impulsive.

But he was genuinely good to the original owner of the body and to the family.

Si Jin said, "I don't blame you."

"Okay, then... let me pack up and we'll head out."

After saying that, the Mermaid King left in a hurry without even drinking his tea.

After returning to her room, she slammed the door shut and shed two tears.

He came without bringing anything, so there was no luggage to pack.

The only thing that needs to be calmed is one's mood.

He spent three days there, inquiring about the truth from the kings of various countries with whom he had good relations.

Finally, I gained a new understanding of Ferrion in my heart.

The land of fish is a symbol of peace and tranquility, and is regarded as an auspicious omen by all nations.

We must never keep someone like Ferrion, who has ulterior motives.

… …

Si Jin prepared to return to the Mermaid Kingdom. After tidying up, she went to the living room to find Lin Yuan.

He had intended to say goodbye, but the dragon dismissed everyone, pulled him into his arms with one hand, and kissed him.

“Before the breeding season, I said that after these ten days, I would go home with you.”

"Isn't now the perfect time? Let's go together."

“But the breeding season has just ended.” Si Jin said, then hugged the dragon again, calmly analyzing, “You’re still very hot, can you adapt to the water?”

"It's alright, Uncle has a waterproof suit."

“But I remember in these ten days… many of your clothes were ruined, and you only had a few left.”

Lin Yuan put one arm around the boy's waist, making him lean closer to him.

Without any hesitation, she said, "That's alright. After we catch Ferrion, you can measure my waist, and I'll have a tailor make me another one."

"Oh." Si Jin nodded, understanding his meaning, and then asked knowingly, "Should we use a tape measure?"

"No." Lin Yuan leaned close to the boy's ear, smiling brightly: "The fish's legs are just right for measuring."

The Mermaid King, passing through the living room and preparing to ask Si Jin to leave with him: …………

Old rogue! scoundrel! Dragon!

I'm fed up! Let's destroy it!
