This really worried Gobert.
But the cub remained calm, as if its tail was none of its business. It would automatically curl up when wet, held high, straighter than a small dagger.
Gobert really wanted to put him down, but just as the base of the cub's tail was about to touch the water, the cub started wiggling its chubby waist again.
"Pfft—"
Whether you say it or not, she's still quite adorable.
The other merfolk couldn't help but burst out laughing.
The cub turned its gaze in that direction.
0.0: Stare—
Their little faces are so adorable that they almost want to roll over and be overwhelmed by their cuteness.
In the end, Gobert had no choice but to draw a bubble for the fish fry and put the fry inside it.
Just like a swimming ring in the human world.
Now the baby can soak in water without getting wet.
fry:!
He really liked the transparent bubble, and the boy followed Gobert underwater, where he discovered a hidden world beneath the sea.
It was a new world that the cub had never encountered before.
The fry stared intently at the various creatures on the seabed, and Gobert had to stay by his side to prevent him from being swept away by a wave at any moment. He also had to occasionally pour air into the bubbles to prevent the fry from suffocating.
Wherever the child wanted to go, Gobert had to push him around, carefully holding him in his arms.
The other mermaids also lined up and followed behind them.
Only when they reached the seabed did the mermaids suddenly surround them and begin singing the blessing song they hadn't finished earlier.
All inhabitants of the ocean are welcome to participate in this blessing, for it is the sea's gentleness and mercy, and the protection that the Sea King bestows upon all his subjects.
They believed in each other.
Fish fry has limited energy, and the gentle singing made her sleepy again.
He was used to sleeping in a small bed, and even when he lived in a small water tank, his father would accommodate him and have humans make a simple little rocking bed for him inside.
So, floating around in the bubble, the little guy couldn't sleep peacefully. He could only float back to Gobert's arms to feel sleepy, but he just wouldn't fall asleep.
Gobert saw that the little guy was so sleepy that he was practically melting into a puddle and lying flat on the ground, but he just wouldn't sleep in his arms. He thought the little guy was being difficult again, so he hurriedly asked the doctor.
The doctor sighed and glanced at the cub: "The cub is probably in a sensitive period for order right now. There must be something that he feels is not right, which is why he doesn't want to sleep."
Gobert watched as the boy slowly lay down in his arms... then suddenly opened his eyes, then slowly closed them again... He was speechless for a moment, then said:
"Could it be because of those bad habits brought on by humans again?"
Gobert was really annoyed.
It's like your favorite child is always the shadow of your mortal enemy.
I want to kiss him, but I feel a little disgusted...
But there was no other way; for the sake of the king, Gobert reluctantly ordered them to bring the humans back again.
Wearing diving suits, the research team members jumped in one by one like dumplings being dropped into boiling water, seemingly ready to die.
They thought the mermaids had come seeking revenge, and that they might not return. Each of them had even written their wills.
When they got to the bottom of the sea, they found a circle of mermaids, and the little one in the middle was so sleepy that her belly was almost sticking out, and she was still floating around in the circle of mermaids.
They thought it was some kind of special ceremony.
Suddenly, the mermaids on the periphery turned around and said to them:
"Well, the cubs just don't want to sleep. You guys need to think of something."
Shi Wuyai: ...That's it?
Shi Wuyai was speechless for a moment, then exchanged glances with the others, made a few hand gestures, and finally used whatever materials were available to make a nest for the little guy.
Although the nest didn't smell like its father, the exhausted fry didn't care anymore and obediently nestled inside, immediately falling into a deep sleep.
Because it wasn't like the cradle we'd set up before, but more like a baby carrier or cat bed, the little guy squeezed inside, leaving only the tip of his tail sticking out, swaying gently with the airflow.
Gobert tucked the brood and its young back into his arms, then warily led the mermaids away from the humans, as if they were some kind of evil source of pollution.
Researchers: ? Are they some kind of easy targets?
After the mermaids had swum far away, someone asked Shi Wuyai, "Should we chase after them?"
Shi Wuyai shook his head: "No need, we can't get into Atlantis."
Okay, they're just pushovers.
Moreover, Shi Wuyai was still wondering, where did Osiris go?
Since the mermaid seedlings were taken away, Osiris has also vanished into thin air. No matter how hard they search, they cannot find any trace of him.
Now it seems that Osiris did not return to the Merfolk with the cubs.
Who exactly is he? And why did he adopt the cub? Judging from the attitude of these merfolk, they don't seem to recognize Osiris's identity.
That's really strange.
What exactly does this mysterious creature represent among the merfolk?
Shi Wuyai wanted to continue exploring, but this was territory he could no longer tread; one more step forward would mean certain death.
They couldn't even withstand the water pressure in the deep sea.
Shi Wuyai could only maintain his respect for the ocean and stop there.
...
The cub dreamed of its father again.
He couldn't see his father's face clearly, but his father gently cradled him in his arms and softly lulled him to sleep.
The cub affectionately grabbed a strand of hair that had fallen onto its father's chest, nestled against his chest, and rubbed against him affectionately.
"Dad, when are you coming home?"
Upon hearing this, Osiris, carrying his precious pet, flicked his tail and seemed to arrive at a very solemn place, a place filled with the skeletons of many fish, a burial ground of the deep sea.
