“Then, get the leader to agree.” Parker stared at Bluepool, and the viciousness he had been suppressing rose to his eyes once again. “She’s my mate!”

Bluepool’s heart softened, and he said, “I can bring this up to the leader, but I can’t be sure if he’ll agree or not.”

Only then did Parker hand the food over.

…

After returning to the village, Bluepool went to the nursery and found King there.

King was upright in the water, staring at a bundle of seaweed in a daze. His golden hair moved with the waves, but his gaze was lifeless.

He had been the male that Jean adored the most, the strongest one in the merfolk tribe. He had the most number of descendants as well and thus was often seen in the nursery.

It had been ten years since the last batch of children had moved out, and this place was long deserted. However, whenever King had free time, he would come here and go into a daze. This would be the place to go if one wished to look for him.

“Leader.”

Bluepool swam up behind King, telling him Parker’s request.

He didn’t hold much hope, but he also didn’t want to go back on his word since he had already agreed to it. After saying that, Bluepool wanted to leave, but he didn’t expect King to agree.

“What?” Bluepool dug his ears.

King said calmly, “You can make the arrangements tomorrow afternoon. Just don’t let the female get snatched away.”

Only now was Bluepool certain of what he had heard. He gave a reply and then swam away in a daze.

This wasn’t right. King was too cold toward the female. He told everyone to understand her, but he must still be blaming her in his heart.

That was true. After all, he was adored in the past. No one would feel good to be suddenly abandoned like that.

Bluepool let out a mouthful of bubbles as he sighed. He then joined the group that went out to search for the snake.

It hadn’t been half a day when there was progress on the mission to search for the snake beastman.

When Bluepool received the news, he immediately rushed over to take a look.
