What are you doing?
Themis searched everywhere for Vivian and Shen Yulou.
"We're all here, just the two of you are missing. Father is urging us, hurry up!"
He pushed the two of them forward from behind.
I followed Themis all the way into the land of the gods and went through the ritual process.
Amazing!
The little one pointed at the huge statue in front of them while in Shen Yulou's arms.
"Dad saw it!"
He patted the boy on the back, telling him to be quiet and not to disturb the gods.
The little one, who was about to say something, immediately shut his mouth.
He rested his head on Shen Yulou's neck, nibbling on his hand and quietly being a dutiful listener.
The rehearsal ended quickly, and on the way back to her cave with the baby in her arms, Shen Yulou asked the little guy a question.
"Baby, should we give something to the sea god?"
God? Sending something?
The little one was confused.
He only ever gave things to the fathers. What does Shen Shen like?
"Whatever you like, the sea god will like too!"
Upon hearing Dad's explanation, the little one's eyes lit up, and he raised his hand.
My little one loves balls the most, and I want to give him/her a ball!
"You really have a lot of nerve..."
Shen Yulou chuckled. This pufferfish balloon was Zaizai's treasure; he took it everywhere he went. He never expected Zaizai to be willing to give it away.
"Oh!"
The little one wagged its tail slightly, indicating that it was okay.
Because as long as he gives one away, Chi's father and Chen's father will give the baby many more.
"You little devil!"
Knowing what the little one was thinking, Shen Yulou didn't say anything.
Pufferfish: "?"
Is no one speaking up for me?
But it's all good, I can finally escape the clutches of this little devil. I'll sneak away once the ritual is over!
I believe that the Sea God will forgive his people!
The next day, the grand sacrificial ceremony began.
All the mermaids in the Mermaid Kingdom prayed here, praising the greatness of the sea god Sirens with their beautiful voices.
"Great sea god! You are the ruler of the ocean, the symbol of endless power and majesty..."
"You command these vast waves, control the ebb and flow of the tides, and fill the ocean with life and mystery..."
"Please continue to protect this blue home that belongs to us, so that the legend of mermaids may be sung eternally in the ocean!"
The statue began to faintly glow, and the mermaids knew that the god was about to be summoned by them.
Great sea god, we will forever revere you and be grateful for all your blessings.
The mermaids lowered their heads, not daring to look directly at the divine face.
But he continued to mutter incantations as he respectfully placed the gift in his hand on the stone steps in front of the portrait.
When it was Shen Yulou's turn, he put his hands together and prayed for a while.
He put down his seaweed basket.
"Aiya, baba wa la..."
The little boy reached out and tossed his pufferfish ball into his father's basket.
Oh my god! My little one is giving me a ball!
Be happy! Be joyful! Be rich!
Even though his voice was very soft, it was still quite noticeable.
He tried hard to imitate the words spoken by adults, but unfortunately, he still developed his own unique style.
But it doesn't matter; it is often the most innocent and pure language of children that wins God's favor.
Surprisingly, the moment the child closed his mouth, divine light illuminated the father and son.
A seashell necklace slowly fell from a height and finally landed around the little guy's neck.
This is a blessing from the gods.
Is the gods' favoritism obvious?
The mermaids around them looked on with deep envy, wondering if they should also have a baby this year and bring the baby to the ancestral worship next year.
What if the sea god is actually a rare baby?
Just as the radiance gradually faded and everyone thought the sacrificial ceremony was about to come to an end, the outline of the god's body reappeared in the sky.
With a wave of his hand, divine power radiated outwards, flowing into the bodies of the fish along with the flowing seawater.
The fish all felt refreshed, their senses cleared, and their strength increased considerably.
