Irina fell into deep thought. Such a big tail, and he called it almost human-like?
In fact, Eros did not lie to Irina. He really thought that mermaids were similar to humans.
It just has two fewer legs and an extra tail.
Although it is indeed inconvenient to not have legs, and they cannot do many things that humans can do, this is not unacceptable, not to mention that their advantages in other aspects can completely make up for the shortcomings of not having legs.
Of course, Irina was just making a casual remark, and she didn't really dislike the mermaids.
Soon, Eros finished the breakfast prepared by Irina. Although the taste was not as good as that made by Isabella, it was still pretty good.
It seems that Irina is indeed trying hard to learn cooking from Isabella.
After eating and drinking, Eros leisurely returned to the living room, and Irina took the dishes used by Eros to the kitchen to wash them.
Eros had just returned to the living room and sat down, preparing to accumulate spirit through meditation in preparation for his advancement to Sequence 3, when he heard exclamations from outside.
He was a little surprised, so he stood up and walked to the balcony to look at the deck below.
The lights on the ship were bright, making the nearby sea as bright as day.
Eros lowered his head and noticed Caroline who had returned to the deck and was surrounded by a group of mermaids.
At this moment, these mermaids were surrounding Caroline with excitement and curiosity, asking her all sorts of questions, and occasionally making excited "wow" sounds.
This was the sound Eros had just heard. He shook his head in confusion and glanced around the deck.
He then noticed a few figures of the living chatting with the mermaid.
The shadow of the living that appeared this time also had a tail on its lower body. It seemed that in order to blend into this group of mermaids, it turned itself into a mermaid.
The mermaids who were chatting with them did not notice anything unusual about their companions. All the mermaids accepted them naturally and treated them as their companions.
Eros stared at the shadows of the living. Gradually, the shadows of the living seemed to notice Eros's gaze and turned back to look at where Eros was.
Their eyes met in the air, and Eros looked calmly at these shadows of the living.
Under Eros's gaze, the expressions of these living shadows gradually subsided, and finally became expressionless and slowly dissipated.
After they disappeared, the mermaids who were chatting with them suddenly woke up and realized that the companions they were chatting with were actually the shadows of the living.
They patted their chests in fear, causing the earth to shake.
Eros withdrew his gaze and whispered to Barbara in his mind:
"Can't even you isolate yourself from these shadows of the living?"
"This is the power of fate, not ours!"
Barbara sat on the crescent moon, gently swinging her two pairs of slender feet wrapped in fine white silk.
"They can't affect you anyway, so why don't you just come out and take a look every day?"
Seeing that Eros didn't say anything, Barbara said casually.
"That's not what I'm worried about!" Eros shook his head.
"Then what are you worried about?" Barbara showed a hint of doubt in her eyes.
"Too often!" Eros muttered.
"What?" Barbara didn't understand what Eros meant for a moment.
"I say, these shadows of the living appear too frequently," Eros repeated in a low voice.
According to the records of the church, the shadow of the living is rarely seen in the Sea of Eternal Night. Not even one ship out of a hundred may encounter one.
Unlike him, the ship is refreshed every day.
Although these shadows of the living did not bring him any harm, this abnormal situation still made him alert.
I wonder if something unexpected happened in the Eternal Night Star Sea.
After Eros's reminder, Barbara, who had also read the information, obviously noticed something unusual.
After a pause, she speculated, "This might be related to us. If the Eternal Night Sea of Stars is truly a backup plan arranged by the Master, then this situation is most likely caused by us attracting them here."
Her speculation is not unreasonable. As the three sacred artifacts of the Goddess of Night, they will naturally attract other creatures belonging to the night.
"I hope so!" Eros sighed softly and looked up at the silver moon and stars in the night sky.
It would not matter if he did not look at it, but once he did, Eros frowned again.
Just then, Irina, who had finished washing the dishes, came to Eros.
Seeing Eros frowning, she asked with a puzzled tone:
"What's wrong?"
Eros pointed at the silver moon above and asked Irina softly:
"Have you noticed that the moon today is bigger than yesterday's?"
Irina also looked up, but didn't find anything unusual because she had never paid attention to the moon before.
After all, there is no day in the Eternal Night Starry Sea, only night, and the moon has been hanging there for tens of thousands of years.
But Eros couldn't have talked to her about the moon for no reason. It was obvious that Eros must have noticed something.
"Did you discover anything?"
Eros shook his head: "It just feels like today's moon is bigger than the one I saw yesterday."
Irina looked at Eros with a strange expression and said puzzledly:
"Isn't it normal for the moon to change in size?"
