Whoosh—whoosh—
The waves surged and crashed violently against the surface of the sea through the gaps, like countless crystals shattering on the rocks.
The shore was silent, except for the mermaid woman's teasing voice, which carried a peculiar sharpness.
Helnarson kept his eyes closed, his steady breathing rhythmically rising and falling with the expansion of his chest, seemingly ignoring the girl completely.
The mermaid girl lay halfway on the shore, her colorful fish tail swimming on the water's surface, stirring up wisps of mist.
She supported herself on the shore with one hand, propped her chin up with the other, tilted her head, and blinked her eyes, which were full of expectation for Helnason.
"Mr. Bearman, please tell me."
Haile Nathan remained silent, calm and composed, completely unaffected by her.
Seeing that Helnason was ignoring her, the mermaid girl pouted, her forehead flushed red, and she slammed her hands into the sea, splashing up a spectacular spray of foam.
"If you don't tell me, I won't help you!"
Haile Nathan finally spoke, but his tone remained indifferent:
"unnecessary."
The girl was furious and slapped the sea with her tail, splashing water everywhere.
She leaned back, plunging into the cold seawater, wriggling her tail as she swam beneath the surface.
At that moment, Leon walked over, faced the mermaid girl in the sea, smiled, and spoke calmly:
“Congressman Finney, it’s a pleasure to meet you.”
The mermaid paused, half her head emerging from the water, bubbles escaping her mouth, and scrutinized Leon with a puzzled look:
"An elf?"
This is truly eye-opening; she had never seen an elf in Braxton Harbor before.
But when she saw Leon, she always felt that the girl's face was somewhat familiar.
She blinked, then exclaimed in surprise:
"Oh, you're the one next to that little girl... Your name is Leon, isn't it?"
Leon nodded.
"Exactly."
"Wow, I never expected that an elf like you would willingly follow a human."
Lorelei crossed his arms and nodded.
"But I heard that something has happened in the Elf Forest recently. It seems like they're going to do some... reforms?"
Her fish brain couldn't remember things very well; she had just heard about them a while ago.
Then she stopped thinking about it.
Because Leon had already asked her other questions:
"Congressman Finney, what made you decide to come to Braxton Harbor this time?"
"Hmm? Of course, we came here to see the sea."
The mermaid spoke with a hint of happiness, as if she would feel very happy in the ocean.
Lorelei Fanny.
One of the twelve councilors of the Dharma Masters Council.
Unlike other members of parliament, she lives freely in the sea, and she has no citizenship.
After all, there are no sea kingdoms in the ocean.
Lorelei often roams any sea in this world, monitoring the entire ocean for any anomalies that may occur, like a guardian of the sea.
It will not only protect the safety of human fishing boats, but also regulate the turbulent ocean currents.
At the same time, we will also crack down hard on those who pollute the ocean.
If Lorelei discovers that someone is polluting the ocean environment...
No matter who or what race, they will be attacked by the righteous Lorelei who are passing by.
Lorelei looked at Leon and said:
"Well, I didn't originally plan to come to the Empire, but as you can see."
She was referring to the wave that had struck not long ago.
That wave was far more terrifying than any ordinary wave.
That overwhelming force, that heavy surging, all demonstrated a power capable of destroying everything.
Although it was ultimately held back by Helnason, no matter how many times you watch it, a tsunami of this magnitude is truly awe-inspiring.
This made Lorelei realize that this sea area was not peaceful.
Especially now, the weather is so changeable, sometimes sunny, sometimes gloomy, with only a few minutes between each change.
Leon was naturally familiar with Lorelei.
This merman senator frequently visits Braxton, the empire's largest port.
When Miss Lia is not around, they will follow Helnason to intercept ships on the sea and search for any demi-human slaves who have been forcibly captured.
Once discovered, they will proceed with a just trial.
Lorelei had witnessed Helnathan's righteous actions many times, and this warm-hearted bear-man had left a deep impression on her...
Lorelei always saw Helnathan's figure, after all, he was a mermaid and a senator of extremely high moral character.
Seeing Helnathan's righteous side, Lorelei took a liking to this steady bear-man...
Thinking of this, Leon stared speechlessly at the seaside, a few black lines appearing on her forehead.
Lorelei's slender hands roamed over Helnason's body, hooking around his shoulders and neck, teasing him seductively.
"Mr. Bearman, please pay attention to me."
Hainarson remained unmoved.
Leon, who was standing nearby, suddenly had an idea.
As a bear-man, Hailnason also possesses bear-like habits.
so……
He really likes to eat fish.
At that moment, Director Norma, holding the emblem of the Mage Council, hurriedly arrived with several mages.
The moment they saw Lorelei on the sea, smiles bloomed on their faces.
Norma paused for a moment when she saw Leon, then turned to look at the demi-humans around her and realized what was happening.
These are the retainers of House Clevner...
After all, the only family that would allow demi-humans to have such a high status is the Clavenna family.
