Chapter 51 I feel sorry for the mermaids

Rhine and Aurora smiled and accepted their grandmother's invitation.

So the old grandmother left.

Ariel swam over again, thanked Rhine and Aurora again, and was about to say goodbye to them, taking the potion to the world above.

"Later, if you encounter any difficulties in the process of pursuing the prince, you can come to me for help again." Rhine said.

He then gave Ariel a silver mirror:

"I have enchanted this mirror. Look into the mirror and tell it your dilemma. I can hear you even if there are kingdoms between us."

Since leaving the Kingdom of Rose, Rhine has never heard the prayers chanting his name again.

——Obviously, perception based on names also has strict distance limitations, which is far from enough in this vast continent.

So, for this mermaid friend, he specially prepared this gift to contact him.

"Thank you, I will never forget you."

Ariel was filled with gratitude beyond words, so she waved goodbye and floated away to the world above.

After a while, Rhine felt that the power of Ariel's wish flowed into his soul like a stream into the sea.

Apparently, at this moment on the shore, the mermaid princess had grown human legs.

While absorbing the power of will, a beautiful melody faintly sounded in Rhine's ears.

This beautiful song, like the ebb and flow of the tide, flowed through his blood vessels and merged into his soul.

[The Mermaid Princess's Song]

——This is the reward for fulfilling my wish this time.

According to the knowledge that emerged in my mind when I absorbed the power of wishes, the mermaid princess's singing has two functions: first, the beauty of this song is unmatched on land and sea. It can make anyone who hears it feel excited! Second, this song can also soothe the fish and sea beasts in the sea.

As long as the marine creatures hear this song, they will be close to him and regard him as a close friend. He can even use this song to drive these marine creatures to help! For example, let the fish point out the turbulent current, or command the sea beasts to pull away the boat.

Of course, as a magician, Rhine doesn't have to actually sing the song himself, he can use magic to play the song.

For example, he only needed to tap the shell and it would open its mouth and sing this beautiful ballad. He only needed to throw the lyre into the air and it would play this wonderful music.

“Whether performing in a band or sailing on the sea, this is a very useful skill!”

"I never expected that the 'reward' I got in the end was the same as what the sea hag asked for, which was Ariel's singing." Rhine thought.

But as a magician of wishes, the power of wishes paid for Ariel herself.

At this time, Aurora seemed to have thought of something and said:

"By the way, teacher, although we have obtained information about the black witch Maleficent, can we not rush to find her? I want to see Ariel gain the prince's love and obtain an immortal soul before we set off again."

"Of course. Anyway, now, even if you find Maleficent, you can't defeat the dragon." Rhine said, "Besides, I have my own plans."

There is no doubt that obtaining an immortal soul is Ariel's greater wish.

Rhine also wanted to wait until this wish was fulfilled before leaving.

He was looking forward to seeing how the mermaid princess, who had retained her beautiful singing voice and speaking ability and could dance gracefully without being affected by pain, would perform in the next story!

Aurora looked at the dark blue, almost black sea water above her head, and thought of something else. She said with a hint of sadness, "I feel a little sorry for the mermaids."

"What a pity?"

"I sincerely hope that Ariel can succeed in getting the love of that handsome prince. However, even if Princess Ariel succeeds in obtaining an immortal soul, it will only redeem herself. All other mermaids in this sea will eventually turn into unknown bubbles, and not even a grave will be left for them." Aurora sighed.

"This task is so difficult even for the most favored little mermaid princess. How much more so for the thousands of other ordinary mermaids!"

Having lived with Rhine for many years and being raised by this teacher from outside the world, Aurora always thinks about problems from more novel perspectives.

Rhine smiled:

“It’s an interesting direction to think about.

“You are the crown prince of the kingdom, but you grew up without knowing your own identity.

"A child who grew up playing with ordinary civilian children will eventually become the new king of the kingdom. He will definitely think more than those kings who grew up in magnificent palaces.

“When you think from a bigger perspective, when you can see thousands of people behind one person, you are learning to be a good king - this is one of the purposes of this journey.”

Although Rhine doesn't look much older than the 10-year-old girl next to him, he always tries to act more mature and more like a wise man and teacher in such occasions.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"So what do you mean, teacher?" Aurora asked, vaguely guessing something.

"Let's look forward to the ending of this story. The ending of the mermaid princess Ariel and this sea kingdom."

Rhine raised his chin and looked up at the thick, dark blue, almost black sea water above.

In two hours, the light of dawn will penetrate this deep sea.

The sun shines equally on the human kingdom on earth and on the kingdom beneath the vast sea.

…

The sun rises.

The sunlight penetrated the sea and fell on the palace of the Sea King.

Welcoming the dawn in the kingdom of the sea is a magnificent sight that no human being can see in their entire life: the sunlight penetrates the sea water and appears gentle and not dazzling, dyeing the entire sea area into a rose color. The court of the sea king gradually wakes up in this beautiful morning.

As agreed, the old grandmother took Rhine and Aurora, who had already read the intelligence about the black witch Maleficent, into the palace of the Sea King.

When a large lantern fish with a transparent belly and two humans inside it swam into the palace gate, the princes and nobles were shocked by such a wonderful scene.

“This is amazing!”

"They are the two humans who first set foot in the ocean country in history, right?"

No matter how knowledgeable a merman scholar may claim to be, he must admit that such a thing has never happened.

"Haha, this is the fairy tale version of a submarine. You probably haven't seen it before." Rhine couldn't help thinking as he looked through the transparent belly of the big fish at the mermaids outside with their eyes wide open.

The most shocked person was His Majesty the Sea King.

The monarch of the sea was not surprised by the strange way the two humans appeared - many of his subordinates had already described this scene in detail to him.

What surprised the Sea King was that the person who brought the two humans to visit was actually his old mother! Didn't she just oppose the intersection of humans and mermaids, and the worlds on land and underwater last night?
