320 Diving into the Ocean (2/2)
Yale was nearing the place, and his Spiritual Sense started to detect the Spiritual Sense conversations of those two.
”Big brother, run! You can't beat them. I am already doomed, forget about me and live!”
That voice sounded cute but desperate.
”I would rather die protecting you than live with the guilt of having abandoned you.”
The other voice was from a male, but it was quite weak as if it was on the verge of dying.
The battle hadn't lasted too long, but it was clear that there was a difference in power that was unsurpassable by the owner of that male voice.
”Please, run. I don't want my big brother to die for nothing. Once they break this barrier, I will die, and no one will be able to save me.”
The situation was extremely dire when Yale finally saw them through Spiritual Sense as he had neared enough.
He was a little disappointed with their looks as they looked like a classic mermaid and merman, he expected something more interesting especially since when the big brother was battling, he seemed to notice that his shape was different having a more muscular body and feet. However, he could only think that he had seen it wrong or was some kind of special skill.
”Never! You came here to look for a medicine for my illness, how can I let you die here! In any case, if someone needs to die that should be me!”
The merman said that, but his body was bit again by the monsters and that time they eat a big part of his tail making him sink.
”Big brother!”
The small mermaid was worried, but at that moment the barrier broke, and the monsters rushed towards her.
However, those monsters stopped on the spot as their surroundings were covered by ice.
”The whole area was frozen; how can this be...”
The small mermaid was shocked by the situation, but her life had been saved.
”Big brother!”
She stopped thinking about that and swam towards where her big brother had fallen. Then, she started to heal him with Water Healing, which was quite surprising due how young looked that girl.
”Don't waste your energy, you can't heal my wounds, I am already doomed, but I am glad that you are alive.”
The big brother didn't seem to regret his actions as long as that little mermaid was safe.
”But, but...”
The small mermaid didn't know what to say, but she knew that her brother was telling the truth and her skills were too lacking.
”I am sorry for hearing your private conversation, but I can heal you.”
At that moment, a human man appeared before the two of them. They had never seen a human before but had read about them in books.
”Why would a foreigner want to help us?”
The small mermaid didn't trust the man who appeared in front of them.
”Thank you, sir, for saving my little sister.”
The wounded merman said that shocking his little sister; his little sister was too young to think clearly in such situation, but for the merman, it was clear that the only one who could have saved his little sister before was that man in front of them.
”It is as your brother says. My name is Yale, and I am the one who has just saved you. Sorry, I was too late to do it before, but I can heal your big brother.”
The little mermaid understood about that after hearing her big brother, but she still distrusted Yale.
”Why did you help us?”
Yale didn't know why that little mermaid had such a great lack of trust but thinking that he was the first human that appeared before that mermaid's eyes, he wasn't angry at all.
”I also have a little sister, and the way your brother rushed to save you obtained my admiration, so I decided to follow him and help.”
