Dorienne folded her fishtail to sit back and relax near her father and brother. Right now, she was among an unusual group of different races. Surprisingly, there seems to be a solid group, no racism clashes or anything.
Despite thinking like that, her attention was inadvertently drawn to the fishbones in the corner.
"Hiiee! You guys eat those fish!?" Dorienne was surprised and pointed at the evidence.
"Oh that. That's left over from those stingy cats who've tasted those sparkling white fish." Sylvia pointed to the three cats who were sitting close to each other.
Vanessa looked at some fishbones in the corner, then a brilliant idea suddenly crossed her mind. "Would you like some fish?"
"You want us to be cannibals!? Sob, you guys eat fish, you little furry creatures have eaten fish..." Dorienne responded with a bit of exaggeration. She put the three little cats on the danger list.
"Hm? Why do you seem so surprised? It's just some sparkling white fish. I know that the brutal law of the wild is eat or be eaten." Yuuki scratched her head uncomprehendingly.
"Some sparkling white fish, you say!? You guys hunt them down for you to eat?" Dorienne blinked in surprise as if she couldn't believe what she had just heard.
"Yup, we fished some of those fish. Is there a ban in this place?" Ella felt a little guilty.
"Ahem, so it's like this... Actually, those white gleaming fish are rare fish that live in our territory. There is indeed a strict prohibition against hunting them, but this is related to the Sea God. I believe the fish died with honor." The red mermaid scratched his cheek awkwardly. He literally gave concessions and exceptions just because Sea God was involved too.
"Is it like that?" Oceanid just stroked his chin as if he didn't know anything. Since the problem was tolerated, so he just put it aside.
"Excuse me, can I ask you a question? This keeps bothering me and I want to know." Elysia raised her hand to get attention.
"Very well, proceed to what you want to know human girl." The red mermaid gave the nod.
"I'm aware that you mermaids have lungs and gills, so do the Aquatic Races have two respiratory systems? You can use one of them at will?" Elysia asked with a clueless expression. A creature with two respiratory systems, it was her new discovery in life.
"Exactly. But, not all underwater creatures are as special as us, okay. Only a small part. So, is that all?" The red mermaid gave his confirmation quickly and casually.
"En." Elysia nodded.
"Hohoho~ Is this a golden trident? Wow, why do your cheeks have a red hand print, sir red mermaid? Look at all those muscles. Uhh, you guys are slimy and a little fishy." Sylvia checked the two male mermaids with her observational gaze.
She even boldly poked the red mermaid's abdominal muscles to check for authenticity.
"Shoo, please watch your words and manners, little girl. We are mermaids, of course we are fishy. Wait a minute, why does that feel like it has another meaning?" The red mermaid pushed the red-eyed girl away, then he frowned to reconsider about what he just said.
"Fishy..." Elena muttered with an even expression.
"Wh-what? We're not suspicious. It was you guys who brought us into this mysterious space." Dorienne protested in a low voice. She didn't even dare to look at the golden-eyed girl for some unknown reason.
"..." The red mermaid glanced at the golden-eyed girl and the two girls near her. He didn't know why, but his instincts told him those three were worth watching out for. And again, the little fairy on the mint-green-haired girl's shoulder.
After that, he gave a resentful look to the snow-white-haired girl with seven tails. He didn't do anything, but he got a hard slap on the cheek for no reason.
"Why are you looking at me with that look? I'm sorry because it was just my reflex because you suddenly came and almost fell on me. You are a big, muscular man with a broad chest. A trivial matter like that doesn't make you angry, right?" Yuuki smiled sweetly and wore an innocent expression.
"Tsk." The red mermaid just clicked his tongue. If it had been said like that, and an apology had been issued, then he could no longer argue about the slap.
"Okay, this may be a little late, but allow me to introduce ourselves. I am Clyde, and this is my father, Osharus, and lastly is my little sister, Dorienne. So, what can we do for you, Sea God's adventurer group?" Clyde introduced his family and brought the conversation straight to the point.
Seeing the opportunity, the girls naturally took advantage of that to ask whatever they wanted to know from the mythical mermaid.
Although a bit overwhelmed, Osharus and Clyde answered a few questions from the girls. It didn't matter whether the questions that came up were sometimes weird and silly. Dorienne didn't escape the conversation either.
"Nee, I remember some Aquatic Races that can transform their body parts. Some of them can also change from a strange creature into a human form. So, do you guys have the same ability? I mean, can you transform your fishtail into a pair of legs? Can I touch it?" Sylvia asked like a curious little girl. She then touched and stroked Dorienne's fishtail.
"You asked my permission, but you've been groping me without waiting for my answer? Why are you so curious about my fishtail? Please don't touch it for too long or I'll be embarrassed." Dorienne smiled wryly. She felt a little helpless to face such a stubborn and persistent girl.
"I dunno, you feel slippery and slimy. It's like I'm stroking jelly, but it's a little solid with the addition of fish scales." Sylvia poked Dorienne's fishtail gently, then gave it a slight squeeze.
"Kyah! I-I think that's enough." Dorienne immediately secured her fishtail and fled from Sylvia's naughty hands.
"Sylvi, come here. Please don't bully Dorienne. She's already feeling overwhelmed because of you." Elysia gave a beckon for the naughty devil girl to came closer.
"Mm, okay~" Sylvia instantly became an obedient girl and sat down sweetly next to Elysia.
"Dorienne, Dorienne, Dori... Dori, Dory Fish? Hm, on second thought, for some reason, your name reminds me of something." Elena tapped her chin with her finger. A memory just flashed through her mind.
"What's with my name? Does my name remind you of someone with a name similar to mine? Dory Fish? Who is that?" Dorienne peeked over her father's back with a slight blush.
"Is Dory your nickname? But, yes, I know a fish named Dory Fish. Would you like to see her? I have an image of her." Elena smiled playfully.
"If you please." Dorienne nodded with a hint of curiosity.
Elena just waved her finger and made a square motion in the air. It was like a projection popped out of nowhere. An image of a bluefish appeared before everyone.
"Is-is that the Dory Fish you mentioned?" Dorienne looked at the bluefish and studied it for a moment. She didn't even notice that she was moving closer by jumping up and down a bit. "She seems small and vulnerable. Is she a Spirit-level fish or above?"
"I don't know, but she can talk and is usually accompanied by a clownfish. Anyway, she is Dory Fish and you are Dory Fish in another sense." Elena ended her projection and shrugged her shoulders.
Thirty minutes had just passed. The afternoon had turned into dusk before sunset.
Oceanid felt that it was not the time for them to linger in the same spot. He also wanted to find out about two of his missing avatars.
"Hm, time flies so fast. Looks like it's time for us to go." Oceanid announced in a relaxed tone.
"If that's possible, would you like to visit our territory in the northern region of this white coral reef? Allow us to host you." Osharus rubbed his hands together and offered kindly.
"No, there's no need. We need to go find and retrieve something that was lost as soon as possible." Oceanid shook his head.
"You and your group are looking for something, Sea God? If I may ask, what are you looking for? The Lorelei Clan is ready to help you find what you are looking for." Osharus didn't reduce his smile in the slightest. It would only bring good fortune if Sea God's group visited his territory.
"Hmm..." Oceanid stroked his chin thoughtfully for a moment. "All right if you insist. I lost touch with two of my possessions at a sketchy spots not too far from here. Perhaps, you can help me find out who dared to do anything to my possessions."
"Hehe, of course. The Lorelei Clan will be at your disposal to find your possessions. It's getting late, allow us to have dinner at the Lorelei Clan's territory before anything else." Osharus looked up, and the sky was already dark.
"Very well, let's go to your clan's territory right now. We'll be leaving immediately after dinner and a brief discussion." Oceanid didn't mind. He then gave Nell an eye signal for them to leave.
"Oho~ So, it's like that, hmm? It's a little funny on my part because you decide things on your own without needing to ask for our opinion or confirmation. Looks like you need to get a little lesson from me so you can introspect your attitude, Sea God." Elena closed her eyes with a faint smile.
She just felt calm and at peace after getting some of Elysia's comfort. But, she got a little annoyed that this little blue creature was behaving like a boss.
Therefore, she decided to give a little lesson, or rather a punishment and a reminder.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
