Chapter 109 Sea within the Sea
After spending an entire afternoon on the boat, Vesperia felt inexplicably irritated.
And as time goes by, this feeling of irritability becomes more and more serious.
At night, everyone was having dinner on the boat. Vesperia didn't see Naga, so he went to ask his personal guards.
The guard said, "Princess? This afternoon, I saw him go into the sea. Perhaps something happened."
"Oh..." Vespera thought, "You call him Princess?"
"Yes." The guard looked at Vespera's expression, but couldn't tell what she meant. He asked cautiously, "Isn't that inappropriate?"
"It's okay." Vespera could probably guess that this was Naga's own request.
Tomorrow, the team will set off again.
In fact, in the afternoon, after checking the condition of the ship, many supplies had been moved back to the ship. Even now, there were only some guests relaxing in the banquet hall, and the security team members and guards were rushing to restore the facilities of the cruise ship.
At night, except for some guards who will stay on shore, most people can return to the cruise ship to stay overnight.
Vesperia had no appetite. Just like that day, he was sitting on the deck, enjoying the breeze while holding a glass of champagne.
The salty, wet sea breeze failed to dispel his irritability at all. His mood grew increasingly depressed until he heard a voice calling out:
"Your Highness."
Following the sound, I saw the big, brainless mermaid.
"Where have you been?" Vespera asked him.
He wanted to remind Naga not to swim near the ship, but then he remembered that the cruise ship was now docked.
Naga did not answer his question directly, but performed some synchronized swimming in the sea, head down, with her tail exposed above the water, shaking her body desperately, creating a string of crystal waves on the water surface.
"Would you like to take a night cruise? I want to take you to the surrounding waters. I guarantee there will be many things you have never seen before." Naga raised her head and jumped up, inviting.
He looks very happy. Did anything happen today that made him particularly happy?
Vespera glanced back at the banquet hall.
Dance music started playing again, and his fellow villager was continuing the process that he had not completed on his wedding day.
I'm the only one with nothing to do, Vespera thought.
"good."
He agreed and quickly took off his coat and boots.
Naga swam to the side. He originally wanted to go to the shore to pick up Vespera, but he didn't expect that His Royal Highness the Prince, who suddenly felt playful, would jump directly from the deck which was more than ten meters high.
"Awesome!" After diving into the water and then floating to the surface like a dolphin, Vespera said to the Naga who swam to his side: "You know what? I actually have a shadow over water, but because of the heart you gave me, I now enjoy being in the water."
"The sea is the vastest and most inclusive," Naga agreed.
Seeing that Vespera didn't look like anything was wrong, Naga didn't bother with him and jumped off the deck directly, leaving behind the matter that worried her. She took his hand and swam towards the depths of the sea.
This time he did not hold Vespera while swimming, because Vespera said that he wanted to swim by himself. Since he had the ability to breathe and survive underwater, he could not always rely on Naga.
"Of course you can always rely on me." Naga corrected with a frown, "I don't understand, is there anything that can separate us? I will always be by your side, I can do anything for you."
Vespera blushed upon hearing this.
He can handle the hypocrisy in the drinking and socializing very well, but he can never bear to be ruthless when faced with Naga's direct ball.
Especially after knowing that Naga not only saved him in the sea, but also gave him a precious heart, Vespera really couldn't use the fact that Naga didn't understand human emotions to deny his affection for her.
Who would give their heart to someone else for nothing?
Even if you are in love or obsessed with fairy tales, it would be difficult to achieve this level, right?
At least, he couldn't treat Naga as a "teddy" anymore.
"Does the heart have any other functions? I was always a little nervous when you were not here in the afternoon, but seeing you just now makes me feel better." Vespera asked casually.
They dived deeper and deeper, but Vespera did not feel his vision was obstructed. Apparently, his night vision was getting better.
Behind the two men, some small fish followed their tails and legs, getting some dense oxygen from the surging foam.
"No, it won't do anything other than let you live as long as I do and live underwater - oh, I mean, maybe you'll be a little taller and stronger," Naga explained.
"Really?" Vespera was unconvinced. "Why do I feel as if it still has a strong connection with you, as if it's still beating in your chest. Just like now, when I'm close to you, my heartbeat surges and synchronizes with yours. When I'm away from you, it takes me with it, and we miss you together... together."
At this point, Vespera's voice softened.
A few days ago, he righteously rejected Naga's courtship and refused to mate with him, but now, he said such ambiguous words.
But it was really hard for Vespera to deny the fact that the heart really missed its former owner.
"Oh, so that's what you mean." Naga circled around him.
Vesperia swam slowly. Although his physical strength was quite good due to his strong heart and the fact that he had become stronger, he was not a creature suitable for swimming after all. Without a tail and fins, it was difficult for him to swim too fast.
This resulted in Naga holding his hand with some concern at the beginning. Then, after a few minutes, he realized that Vespella had her own scent, and no large aquatic animals in this sea area dared to offend him, so he boldly let go of the hand of the lovely human prince, and like the little puppy fish in Vespella's mouth, he swayed around him happily.
Occasionally, the tip of its tail would tenderly wrap around one of the prince's legs, and occasionally it would swim very far ahead, in the path that Vespella had to pass through, quickly stirring up the sea water to form a circle full of bubbles, forcing Vespella, who had no choice but to pass through it.
Vespera: “…”
I couldn't help but think of what Bai Su said, that he once rode his centaur partner to practice equestrianism and jump through fire hoops.
Vespera was about to lecture him when Naga came close and said sweetly, "I'll take you somewhere first. I'll explain everything to you once we get there."
"Okay." Vespera said indifferently, "You hold me and swim with me. I'm a little tired."
Hearing this, Naga became even happier.
He longed to hold the adorable, handsome, and mermaid-like baby prince in his arms forever, swim with him, and have him smell all over him like himself.
He even snuck a kiss onto the thin fin behind Vespella's ear, content to receive a glare that wasn't at all menacing.
After swimming past a group of reefs in the deep sea and reaching a place with fine sand on the seabed, Vespera thought that this was the end of this area.
But Naga led him through the gap between two rocks and then came to another hidden deep sea. Vespera discovered that there was another sea within the sea - this was a deep sea that was so blue that it was almost black and the bottom could not be seen at all.
Vesperia guessed that there must be a piece of land above it that blocked the sunlight, so it was so dark.
Even the fish that occasionally swam past him were much uglier than the fish in the cracks. Their skin was pitted and rough, and their eyes were particularly cloudy.
They basically do not rely on their eyes to move, but rely on other organs to capture the environment.
"Why did you bring me here?" Vespera asked. "Is this where you'll be this afternoon?"
"Hmm." Naga cleared her throat and uttered a long moan in the siren's language.
Vespera couldn't fully understand the meaning yet, she only knew that it was calling someone.
After about tens of seconds, the sea water suddenly shook violently.
Vespera was a little panicked. He subconsciously held Naga's arm tightly, in return for a comforting hug from the other party.
"Don't be afraid." Naga patted his back and said, "Let me show you my friend, Pato, the whale who saved the cruise ship that day."
Vespera nodded.
From the deep sea, a huge blue whale surfaced.
Vespera guessed it was probably over forty meters long, as its eyes were so far apart that he had to turn his head to see both.
"It's so big." Vespera exclaimed.
"Yes, it's very big, but it's still just a baby. Its mother entrusted it to me before she died, and I have raised it to this size." Naga looked like a good father and boasted.
He let Vespera stay where she was, and he went over, touched Pato's forehead, and whispered something.
Then Pato tilted his head, staring at Vespera with his button-sized eyes. He seemed to want to say hello to Vespera by blowing bubbles, but his stepfather Naga quickly held his snout and advised, "Oh, no, you can't blow bubbles at him, you'll suck him into your mouth."
Then Pato gave up the action.
It was Vespera who took the initiative to move over, imitated Naga, touched Pato's forehead, and talked to it for a while.
After saying hello to this cute big guy, Naga carried Vespera upstream and surfaced. There was indeed an island on the surface.
It's not the Tooth Island, it's a fragment of land.
Naga transformed her snake tail into human legs and pulled Vesperia towards the island.
Vespera was just about to teach Naga a lesson, telling him not to transform into a human form and walk the bird without clothes, when Naga pulled her away and hurriedly hid in the woods.
"What are you doing?" Vespera asked in confusion.
"We have to hide first." Naga said, "I stored some things with Pato, and now he wants to help me deliver them. The scene may be a bit exaggerated. You follow me..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Vesperia heard a long whale cry.
He looked up at the sea. Under the moonlight, a huge whale suddenly emerged from the water and sprayed a high column of water into the air. The column contained not only water, but also many things, which fell on the beach and the nearby shallows.
Then, Pato turned over on his belly, fell into the sea on his side.
"What is that?" Vespera asked blankly.
They didn't get far and were affected a little. A small sea crab fell into Vespella's hair, and Naga picked it up for him.
But Vesperia's attention was now entirely on the various gems that filled the beach.
"It's the proposal gift I want to give you." Naga said sweetly.

The author has something to say:
Small Theater:
One day later, Vespella, as crown prince, took part in the parade at the celebration in place of his elderly father, the king.
Next to him was a tall and strong princess.
Naga tried to smile.
On the street nearby, a child saw through the gauze curtains blown by the wind the beautiful princess in the carriage with a mouth full of shark-like sharp teeth, and was so scared that he burst into tears.
Vespera: "...Naga, why don't you stop laughing."
Naga: "What? You dislike me? You used to say I was beautiful and smiled like an angel. Did you lie to me?"
Vespera: "Did I ever say such a thing?"
Naga: "You said so."
During the subsequent parade, the two chatted about the topic of "Do sirens need braces?"
When they arrived at the Bogheria market, Vespera took Naga down with her to show that the royal family had a good relationship.
Vespera: "Wait, why are you so tall today?"
"I'm wearing high heels." Naga coquettishly lifted his blue curly hair, lifted the hem of his skirt, and said with a smile.
He was wearing the same style of long dress as Vespella, looking very noble and elegant.
Therefore, people often suspected that she was not a commoner princess, but a princess of a small tribe.
Whenever she heard such a topic, Naga would elegantly cover her mouth and giggle, as if she agreed.
Vesperia knew that Naga wished others would think of him that way - ever since he heard fairy tales such as "Sleeping Beauty" and "Snow White", Naga changed his tone and rarely mentioned that he was the little mermaid.
His new character is a princess.
Passing by a bookstore, Naga rushed in and started browsing before Vespera could stop her.
When checking out, Vespera saw the signature on it, "Sang Luo", and he knew that when he got home, a new round of cosplay would be waiting for him.
