Chapter 235 Mermaid Tribute (Part 3)
Jian Yu once again stood in front of Dumbledore, who was smiling bitterly and felt that the world had gone crazy.
Having been attacked by sonic waves for several days in a row, she felt depressed.
"Yu, the mermaid leader, Mercus, has asked you for emotional needs that transcend species on behalf of his people. Do you have any idea about this?"
Jian Yu almost thought that he was hallucinating due to lack of sleep.
"What kind of emotional needs transcend species? Is its brain still normal?"
After realizing the meaning of the words, she couldn't help showing a look of disgust, wishing she could knock out the mermaid who was trying so hard to show off his presence:
"Racial differences will lead to no results. I urge them to respect the facts and give up illusions."
"Besides, their screams have seriously disturbed my normal life. Such high decibels should not appear at night."
"If they refuse to stop screaming, I'm afraid I'll have to use some force."
Although Jian Yu's words were full of threats, Dumbledore still smiled with relief.
After confirming that his child did not develop a romantic relationship with the mermaid, he felt relieved and turned to persuade Mercus:
"She has no intention of developing a relationship with the mermaid. I think you must have misunderstood."
"In fact, your mating songs have caused trouble for students."
"The story you told is just a fairy tale made up by Muggles. It doesn't correspond to the facts."
Mercus swam back and forth in the water impatiently, showing his teeth at Dumbledore, obviously unable to accept such an outcome.
In its opinion, if it cannot establish a good relationship with the witch, its tribe may face the fate of being cooked one day.
"(No, we are willing to offer our most handsome mermaid!)" it screamed in mermaid language, "(It is our honor!)"
Dumbledore took a deep breath and decided not to discuss this ridiculous question any further.
He had already realized that something was wrong, because there was obvious humility and fear in Mercus' words:
"Why do you insist on this, Mercus? Can you tell me why?"
Mercus glared at him fiercely and uttered a series of harsh notes, causing Dumbledore to change his expression:
"...What did you say? Cook fish soup with a raging fire? Grill fish?...I sent a predator? How is that possible?..."
"No, no, she is really an ordinary hero... I have no intention of driving you away, it's all a misunderstanding..."
Dumbledore never expected that -
He actually heard such an outrageous description from Mercus!
No wonder on the day of the game, no matter how he called Mercury, it was unwilling to show up!
It turns out that its tribe almost suffered a devastating disaster! Killed by Jian Yu's hands!
Dumbledore turned around and continued to ask Jane about her actions in the Triwizard Tournament:
"Jade, Mercus mentioned that you tried to cook them during your time at the Black Lake...was that what you did?"
"What?" Jian Yu felt that everything he heard had become magical, and he quickly rejected it three times, "I didn't, I didn't, don't talk nonsense!"
But perhaps because Jian Yu had experienced too many bizarre things since entering school, Dumbledore, who had a deep understanding of the rules, asked a different question:
"Have you ever used powerful fire magic spells such as Vulcan Clearance?"
"That's true." Jian Yu nodded. "The water temperature was too low. I was afraid of getting cramps after entering the water, so I heated it up in advance."
Dumbledore choked oddly.
Although he always knew that Jian Yu's thoughts were different from others...
But his voice still couldn't help but be surprised, and he couldn't help asking:
"The reason you used the God of Fire to clear the way... was to heat the lake water...?"
"Is there any problem with this?" Jian Yu asked in confusion, "Madam Pomfrey also praised me for being worry-free and preventing colds well... After all, it's so cold..."
"Nothing is wrong." Dumbledore answered with difficulty, "Well... it returns to the true nature of magic... practicality-oriented... it deserves praise..."
After figuring out the whole story, he turned around and explained to the mermaid leader in mermaid language:
"You heard it too, Mercus. It was just an accident. She didn't know you couldn't stand the heat..."
"You can live here with peace of mind. Our friendship... remains the same as always..."
As a golden mediator and translator, Dumbledore quickly mediated this emotional dispute mixed with forced transactions and coercion.
Under his witness, the two sides shook hands, made peace, and signed a verbal treaty of peaceful coexistence and non-aggression.
The mermaids promised not to disturb Jian's sleep, and Jian promised not to cook them into grilled or boiled fish.
After the mediation, Mercus grinned happily and presented tribute to Jian Yu.
"Merkus gave this to you as a token of... uh... friendship... between you and them."
Dumbledore handed Jian Yu a necklace of peculiar conch shells:
"Put it to your ear and it will tell you where you are. Blow it and it will call the mermaids."
It's like a high-end compass, a mermaid version of navigation.
Jian Yu took the conch necklace and hung it around her neck, then thanked Mercus.
More inexplicable loot!
So many pearls and conch shells—
This mermaid is quite sincere!
