Chapter 49 The Mermaid Princess' Gift
The big fish that Rhine and Aurora were riding on spit out the medicine jar.
The young magician introduced: "My magic potion is not like a sharp knife that cuts the fish tail and separates it into legs. Instead, it is like warm sunlight shining on the fish tail, slowly melting it into legs.
“The process is harmless and painless.
"The newly born legs are as perfect as real human legs, and every step is not like walking on a knife edge.
"So you can show off your beautiful dancing moves, which are more graceful than any other dancer, and go and charm the prince!
"Its medicinal properties are so mild because I added golden sunflowers to the medicine - this kind of flower can only grow in sunny fields. Noble girls on land like to wear it on their chests, but you can't find such flowers in the sea."
By integrating the knowledge of the two potions, improving the original recipe with divination, and surpassing the magic level of the sea hag after accumulating a lot of wishes over the past ten years, and incorporating some of his own healing magic, the potion Rhine made is much better than the original potion of the sea hag! "Thank you, thank you, my friend." Ariel was very grateful.
She no longer has to lose her beautiful voice and become a mute who cannot express love.
When Ariel accepted the sea hag's terms of the deal and waited for the latter to cut off her tongue with a sharp knife, Ariel felt sorry for her future: even if she finally gained the prince's love and immortal soul, she would never be able to express this love in person. She could only be a mute, blinking her eyes and staring at the young prince's handsome face.
Even if she became a member of the human race - she had been longing for the human world since she was a child - she would never be able to enjoy running and singing freely, chat with human friends, and completely integrate into them like a healthy human being.
But with the help of magician friends, all these sad predictions don't have to become reality.
"Of course," Rhine reminded, "the curse of the world still exists. It can't be solved by adjusting the prescription."
“When a mermaid is given a human body, but does not have an immortal soul to match it, she will be cursed by the world.
“If the person you love, the prince, marries someone else, at the next dawn, your heart will still break and turn into foam in the water.
"The only way to break this curse is to have an immortal soul. So if you can successfully win the prince's love, the curse will be lifted."
The little mermaid princess nodded firmly.
With such heavenly singing and beautiful dancing, is there any human heart that cannot be conquered?
"I will remember your kindness, kind and good human!"
Ariel took the medicine jar with trembling hands. "But I can't accept your free help with a clear conscience. As the sea hag said, how can I enjoy the benefits without paying any price?"
"I am the mermaid princess, the sixth granddaughter most favored by my grandmother. Please tell me what you need. I will do my best to fulfill it!"
The moment the mermaid princess took the medicine jar, Rhine felt an endless stream of power of desire gathering, like a pet seeing its owner, ready to embrace Rhine's arms at any time.
He knew that when Ariel drank the potion and her wish of "growing human legs" was officially fulfilled, the power of this wish would truly belong to him.
"The fulfillment of your wish is the best reward for me." Rhine smiled. "I don't have anything special to ask for right now. Why don't you give me a piece of your fish scale as a souvenir - before your beautiful fish tail disappears. With this piece of mermaid scale, I can learn how to temporarily transform myself and my companions into mermaids, and I can also use divination to know where you are."
Ariel did so.
She broke off a small piece of fish scale from its beautiful tail and gave it to Rhine as a gift.
——This is the first time in the history of the entire Sea Kingdom that mermaids have given gifts to humans.
"My wizard friend, I will remember your help and always remember the favor I owe you today! If you need anything in the future, I will provide you with the same help once." Ariel made a vow excitedly.
…
At the end of the story, the mermaid princess led the two human children on a big fish and left the ugly coral forest.
The sea hag watched them disappear into the depths of the sea.

"A human magician? He is indeed amazing!"
At this moment, the sea ghost woman's heart was not filled with disappointment because of the loss of business and the failure of the transaction. Instead, she was filled with joy like a spring:
"Is it possible for a human magician from the land to fulfill the wish I mentioned before?"
The sea witch had not forgotten that the human magician was considering paying her a second reward in exchange for information about the witches' coven.
"Help me to gain recognition and acceptance from the entire sea kingdom. Let the mermaids and other sea creatures in this sea no longer fear or despise me!"
"This is the second payment I asked for."
——If she didn’t want to fulfill this wish and become a popular person like Ariel, why would she ask for the “beautiful singing voice of the Little Mermaid”?
