It wasn't until we reached the very back that we discovered that someone actually lived there.
A seashell-shaped bed and chair, and a table made of some unknown material.
Various mysterious-looking items were displayed on it.
There was also a man-eating fish standing in front of that table.
The tail was light silver, but the color was quite dark.
With a head of pale, messy hair and covered in wrinkles, he looked quite old.
Hearing the noise, the mermaid opened its eyes, its dark green eyes exactly like Donald's.
"rare."
The voice was old, but it was pleasant to hear.
Donna swam to the old fish
"wizard"
His voice, though not exactly respectful, still carried a rare hint of gentleness and humility.
The wizard nodded and spoke.
"What happened?"
Donna was the last mermaid they ate.
The two of them have lived together in this area for hundreds of years.
Donald rarely appears, but when he does, it usually means he has something to ask of him.
Donna smiled faintly.
“I once read in your book that mermaid tails can turn into legs, allowing them to live on land.”
Upon hearing this, the wizard paused.
She looked intently at Donald, her voice aged.
"It seems you encountered quite a few things on this trip."
Donald thought of Su Yan, and his smile deepened slightly.
"I guess so."
He paused for a moment, then asked again.
"Does the wizard know how to concoct that 'potion'?"
The wizard put down the vessel he was holding and looked at Donald.
The two stared at each other for a long time without saying a word.
Gradually, a solemn expression appeared on the wizard's face.
Donna, however, remained unchanged, with her refined appearance and that gentle smile.
The two stared at each other, making the atmosphere heavy.
After an unknown amount of time, the wizard finally spoke.
"Since you've read that book, you should know the price you'll have to pay."
Donna smiled slightly
"Yes, I know. From the moment I became human, I no longer belonged to the mermaids, nor could I turn back into a mermaid. As a price, every step I take feels like walking on a knife's edge."
The wizard stared intently.
"The administration of this 'medicine' requires a prerequisite: obtaining someone's genuine love for you."
"I know"
Before the last word was uttered, the wizard spoke again.
"Do you even understand?! Human love is fickle; in a lifespan of only a hundred years, they may fall in love with several people. But you, from now on, every day you live will depend on her love. What you want is eternal love. If she changes her mind, you will die!"
Donna still smiled gently, her dark green eyes shimmering with that tender smile.
"I know"
The wizard looked at him.
He seemed a little angry.
"You're a merman-eater, you're a disaster. You're not a mermaid. Do you think the person you love will still love you the same way once they know who you are?!"
"She will."
Because she already knew.
Thinking of Su Yan sleeping peacefully with his hand in hers, Tang Na's heart melted.
He wanted to be with her, to be together physically and emotionally.
Seeing his resolute attitude, the wizard sighed.
"Are you sure?"
"kindness"
The wizard remained silent for a long while.
"Wait two hours. This recipe is old and very difficult to prepare."
"Thank you, wizard."
Donald sat on the edge of the bed, waiting quietly.
He looked at his light silver tail, wagging it back and forth.
If you ask him what he likes most about himself?
It's probably a fish tail?
Why?
Because it is unique and indestructible.
