BXBX NOVEL Chapter 926 The Abducted Mermaid
The day was bright, but the people looked restless. A pink mermaid walked the streets as if she didn\'t care about the surrounding commotion.
She had just checked almost all the inns in this city for the Sea God, and she was lucky enough to get information from the two imperial guards on patrol. She caught him at an inn in the red light district, accompanied by three beautiful ladies all night.
"I\'m just a small fish, huh... He really never looks at me and just likes to play around with beautiful women everywhere." Dorienne sighed sadly. She had previously barged into the Sea God\'s room and asked what she was like for him, and his answer had really hurt her.
The mermaid\'s love story with her prince from another race usually ended in tragedy. Maybe, if she continued to force her feelings, her fate would end up like those pitiful mermaids in the story?
She finally understood why Sylvia and the other girls had told her that the Sea God was also the Pervert God of Debauchery.
Sea God only liked mature ladies to play around, leaving them with no strings attached. She was also the top-tier beautiful mermaid with rare pink color! However, he was never attracted to her from the start?
"Then what am I? Why did he give me to the Goddesses? Am I like a tribute offering or a bargain chip?" Dorienne looked down and walked towards Evroria Palace.
However, she noticed the road and the palace looked busy.
Therefore, she decided to go to a quiet place to calm herself down before asking the Goddesses about her problem. A garden not far from the palace was her choice. There were lots of beautiful flowers, and it was pretty peaceful.
Yo, little girl. Are you a rare water beastkin that lives in the southern lake?
"It\'s no good walking around in the crowds of the city by yourself. You might get lost."
"Yeah, let this reliable big bro show you around. The issue of the Empress abdicating shook our continent quite a bit, hmm?"
Three muscular beastkin came closer to Dorienne with loud laughter. She was irritated at being called a little girl, as the Sea God said, but she tried to ignore them.
Unfortunately, she couldn\'t stay like that for long because the beastkin grabbed her hand and shoulder. They don\'t want to let her go.
"Yo, pretty lil sis. We\'re talking to you, are you listening to us?"
"It\'s rude to remain silent when we intend to help stray fish."
The muscular Beaskins sighed and advised the newcomer.
"Lil sis? Little girl? Little fish..." Dorienne mumbled under her breath. She felt highly irritated because those words seemed to hurt her pride. She was an honorable mermaid from the Lorelei Clan, not just a random little fish!
"We\'re not suspicious people. We\'re from-" One of the more sensitive beastkin realized that he and his friends were using the wrong approach. However, a cloaked man interrupted before he could finish explaining their identities.
"Enough of this! You are trying to harass a lady in broad daylight. I enforcer of justice who happens to be passing by won\'t let you." The cloaked man immediately beat the three beastkin.
"Ouch!" "Argh!" "Aaa!"
The three beastkins were punched and sent flying into the sky. They fell into an irrigation canal near the park.
"Are you all right, my princess?" The cloaked man showed his prince-charming charisma with a sparkling smile.
"!!!" Dorienne was amazed by the event that had just happened. The hero saved the beauty in distress, just like in the story, but somehow, this hawk-like beastkin looked really handsome.
"Hmm~" The hawk beastkin narrowed his eyes slightly when he realized this light pink-haired girl wasn\'t an ordinary beastkin. She was probably a rare pink mermaid from the Aquatic Ocean. Those mermaid-like ears were the hard evidence.
"Anyway, it is not good to let a beautiful girl like you walk alone in the city. There are some flirtatious men who might seduce you and harass you. I am Blitz, a landlord from the Holmfirth Village. May I have a honor to know your name, my princess?" Blitz introduced himself politely.
"I\'m Dorienne. Also, I\'m not your princess, but thank you for driving the three bullies away. For now, I want peace of mind. Please leave me alone." Dorienne introduced herself and then shook her head. She could deal with those bullies even if this hawk-like man didn\'t appear.
"No, no, I would feel guilty if I left you alone in this state. If you will, I know of a suitable place to quiet your mind. I am also a good listener. Every problem is not as bad as it seems. There is always a solution for every problem." Blitz exuded his charm skill and tried to convince this pink mermaid.
"O-oh, un..." Dorienne was charmed and nodded in agreement to go with Blitz. She no longer felt suspicious or wary of him.
"Hehe, who would have thought I\'d get an extraordinarily good stuff upon my arrival." Blitz muttered under his breath after the pink mermaid climbed onto his carriage. He then went to take her out of the city.
"Bluergh, what\'s with that self-proclaimed hero? He attacked so suddenly and just threw us into the canal. Ugh, my waist hurts."
"Yeah, we just want to help that pretty girl because the city is a bit rowdy. She looks like a sad lost girl."
"Tch, whataver, consider that as our badluck. He has already left. But, I have already memorized that man\'s face. He is a hawk. I will beat him up the next time we meet."
The three beastkins crawled out of the water canal. They were determined to take revenge on their attacker in the future.
Meanwhile, the girls\' raid party to eliminate the source of the parasites was finally about to begin. Everyone had already gathered in the outer ring of the vine-strewn forest towards the Misharan Tree\'s central territory.
Gio and Cherub were the only ones who would not participate in that raid because they were tasked with protecting the forest town and the citizens. The city guards dispatched the unconscious victims to a safe place.
"Pfft..." Elysia couldn\'t help but cover her mouth.
More than five hundred beastkins suffered from slight baldness on the top of their heads. Men, women, and even children all received the same dilemma. Regardless, they were freed from the green fungus parasite manipulation.
"They need a bit of hair growth shampoo and they\'ll be fine. Or, any healing fur growth technique is also good." Elena was also amused. The girls were too enthusiastic to complete this mission.
"The girls have found the location of Misharan Tree. Let\'s see the situation there." Rhea caught a glimpse of a small explosion in the distance.
"They are battling the annoying vines while looking for Misharan Tree\'s heart core. Madam Lifa, can you show us the scoreboard of this fungus buster minigame?" Elysia didn\'t feel rushed.
"Shh, shh, you use madam for my name but lady for my second name.
"That\'s not good, Ely. You need to be a little consistent in your use of honorifics to me. Something like mama is perfect! Please say it for me. Ma-ma~ Don\'t feel too embarrassed like Rhea~" Lifa held Elysia\'s arms from behind and put her head on Elysia\'s shoulder.
"Ma-" Elysia obeyed reflexively, but her voice got stuck in her throat. "I, I can\'t..."
"Hmm, why? Is it because of your past? You said that you no longer mind about it? Am I wrong? You will turn a new leaf for the present and the future, right?" Lifa poked Elysia\'s cheek and smiled gently. She would take things slowly but surely. "Hmm, that\'s fine with lady Tifa, but for my name... please call me mama, mkay? I\'ll spoil you rotten, fufu~ Please say it with me."
"Ma-ma Li-fa..." Elysia complied with Lifa\'s wish without complaining. She followed Lifa\'s words even though she stuttered a bit.
It was hard to say, considering Lifa indicated for her to forget her previous family on Earth, but they had also forgotten Ali. They also received the luxury of life because of Ali\'s death. So, she was no longer related to Ali\'s family.
Elena and Rhea did not prevent or discourage that action. Lifa\'s approach was right, and it would help Elysia ease her mind.
"Mm~ wonderful! This is the scoreboard. Yuuki is leading with 263 points, and Ai is in second place with 254 points. Unfortunately, only the first place will get the jackpot prize~ Will Yuuki\'s position be shifted during the raid party?" Lifa showed a scoreboard screen in front of everyone.
"The total number of victims infected with the parasitic fungus is nearly eight hundred. That\'s just less than a day of parasite spread..." Elena folded her hands under her breasts.
"Yeah, it\'s strange I say to find the Misharan Tree here. Someone must have transported it from the Forbidden Forest. The Beastkin Continent only has one forbidden place, and it\'s not in this region." Lifa heaved a subtle sigh and wrapped her arms around Elysia\'s waist.
"..." Elysia felt a little embarrassed because she wasn\'t used to having Lifa cling to her. Not to mention, Lifa\'s pair of soft cushions pressed on her back.
"Master Elysia, you sent Doll One on some errands, but do you know how to communicate with her? She doesn\'t have a spirit connection like us." Rhea remembered that she and her mother had not taught Elysia and Elena about it.
"I don\'t know yet, but I\'m waiting to be told now. Please teach us." Elisia smiled innocently.
"..." Rhea glanced at her mother because her mother had only mastered that technique.
"Ah no, this is bad. My memory isn\'t too clear to remember that technique. My sweet Rhea, I want you to call me mama like you used to. Maybe, I can recall my lost memory." Lifa held her head with a fake troubled expression.
"Mama, I can\'t call your name like a spoiled child carelessly." Rhea pouted and complained.
"It\'s fine to act spoiled carelessly if it\'s just us around." Lifa replied with a victorious wink. She then raised her finger. Ah, I can remember now. Ely, Lena, I will teach you how to send telepathy to Doll One without using spirit connection.
