Chapter 37 part2 (1/2)

Maybe because the mermaid cub had concentrated and put in a lot of effort to solidify the ice crystal, Xie Tao did not notice any sign of it melting.

It was a bit cold to hold the ice crystal in his hand and it had already started becoming numb. Xie Tao hesitated, then put the ice crystal in his pocket under the watchful eyes of the mermaid cub.

The ice crystal would probably melt, but until that happened, he would bring this gift with him.

”Can Gale do it again, the way you wrote this word just now?” The little mermaid grabbing his trouser leg, looked up and listened attentively as the youth slowly asked this.

The mermaid cub had without a doubt developed an ability, there was no question about it. However, Xie Tao remembered something Xia Qi had mentioned before—

That the mermaid race used singing as a medium for their power.

Regarding this, when Xie Tao went onto the Star Network and did some follow-up research to make up for his lacking common sense, he had also read it.

This being the case, people would normally reverse the concept and think that a cub who could speak would not be able to use the ability.

But now, right before Xie Tao's eyes, there was a living exception.

Responding with a low sound, the mermaid cub gently swayed his tail and temporarily let go of the cloth in his grasp.

The cub then cupped his hands to pick up some water and tried to shape it into the form he wanted. Although the writing was still crooked, once the water started taking the form he wanted, the little mermaid gradually started solidifying the water into an ice crystal.

This time the writing was not as good as the last one, but the mermaid cub still held up the crystal, presenting it to Xie Tao.

The cub had developed an ability, but he didn't use singing as a medium. He didn't even need to make any sounds at all during the process…

Confirming this, Xie Tao thoughtfully nodded to himself.

Seeing the little mermaid holding up the ice crystal, Xie Tao could only show a helpless smile and pick up the second crystal, placing it in another empty pocket.

After having created the second ice crystal, the mermaid cub, who had once more grabbed onto the youth's trouser leg, felt a little sleepy. But since the youth was there, the cub was unwilling to go to sleep and gently swayed his blue tail, staying at the shore.

Noticing the sleepy look on the cub's face, Xie Tao suddenly realized that using his ability must have consumed a lot of spiritual power.

The mermaid in front of him was still a cub, after using his ability two times it was not surprising that he became sleepy.
