Chapter 1153: Chapter 1151: Bonds and Opportunities
âI am very satisfied with the performances of both of you.â
In the futile wails of Delanlay, the wet neck of the little Mermaid had already fallen under Fu Qianâs control.
Although both tough and slippery, Fu Qian controlled his strength excellently, making its struggles futile while ensuring not to harm the vocal area.
âHonestly, Iâm a bit weary of the aesthetic.â
After the compliments, Fu Qian scrutinized the fierce face of the little Mermaid.
âNow, looking at this face seems more pleasing to the eye.â
âOf course, as the party concerned, you donât seem to think so.â
Though it was theoretically a compliment, the little Mermaid was clearly terrified, not knowing how to be grateful, it even stopped screaming.
âSir, I know you are different from Lann and the others, such a small Mermaid shouldnât hold much value for an existence like yours.â
At this moment, Delanlay finally caught his breath and was able to speak again.
âIf you need someone to do something, just let me know, my abilities might not be of high Ranking, but I can do much more in the sea than she canâŠâ
âIt seems like those Fishmen arenât very aggressive towards you?â
Seeing Delanlay volunteering, Fu Qian nodded slightly.
âYes⊠I can make some changes to my body, not just simple transformations, but turning myself into a half marine creature, although those Fishmen are murderous, their attacks are targeted.â
âNot bad, if it werenât for that, I might have had to wait for you a bit longer.â
Fu Qian complimented, but his words made Delanlay shiver.
Indeed, he was waiting here!
And it was precisely his abilities that resulted in a faster delivery to the doorstep.
âSpeaking of which, what were you planning to do following this song?â
Fu Qian hinted with his eyes towards the direction where Vivian was singing audibly.
ââŠAfter coming down from the tree, to prevent it from running around, I could only think of ways to bind it.â
Although the other partyâs attitude was unpredictable, since he was willing to converse, regardless of whether it was a rhetorical question, Delanlay quickly cooperated.
âI thought of calming it down a bit and then taking it away from the Sea of Ashes, but in the blink of an eye, everything around changed.â
âWhen I was about to figure out what was happening, those Fishmen started singing and it began to struggle violently.â
âConsidering the directions were utterly confused, I brought it following the sound to see what was happening, and then I discovered the conflict on seaâŠâ
âShocking, right?â
Fu Qian asked unmodestly.
âIndeedâŠâ
Delanlay had realized the commotion was made by the person before him.
âAnyway, I dared not continue to follow, and it also got a bit frightened by the sound of the Fishmen dying, and became much quieter.â
âWhen I didnât know where to go next, I heard the sound from this island.â
âOriginally, when it calmed down, it suddenly reacted violently, making me suspect that it might be a true high-ranked member of its kind, so I brought it here⊠thinking even if I donât find an opportunity to leave, maybe it can find some protection.â
Right, this journey aligned pretty much with what I had imagined.
And in some way, the claim about a higher-ranked Mermaid didnât seem wrong.
Moreover, looking at their posture now, the man and the Mermaid had evidently formed a subtle friendship; this Druid was really something.
âVery well, but it canât gain protection now.â
The next moment, Fu Qian commented satisfactorily.
âCanât it really be released?â
Although aware of the other partyâs capricious nature, Delanlay still felt his Dao Heart shatter for a moment.
âIt might possess some intellect, but canât even speak; Iâm confident that whatever the matter, I can do it better.â
It was obvious he also realized, this fellow was not after the Mermaidâs body materials, otherwise he would have acted long ago.
âWhat about singing?â
Fu Qian emotionlessly asked.
Of course, that would be impossibleâŠ
Delanlayâs bold claim was instantly shattered by a single sentence.
Seeing that the other party didnât seem to be joking, he didnât even know what to say momentarily.
âI believe you still understand this conversation.â
Fu Qian didnât pay him any more heed, his gaze softening as he looked at the Mermaid in his hands.
âNow, let me teach you a bit of civilized wisdom.â
âWhat you need to do is very simple, leave this place, the farther the better.â
âThen along this shattered sea surface, swim from one area to the next, all the while using your singing voice.â
âIf I canât hear the voice anymore, or if the voice stays in one place, I will kill this guy.â
âŠ
The previous statement from Fu Qian even surprised Delanlay a bit.
He hadnât expected him to actually let the Mermaid go willingly.
But soon, he felt as if he was seeing a devil.
Was this to exhaust the Mermaid to death, or perhaps, in the best case, not to attract various Hunters.
What was the meaning of doing this?
Pure malice?
Though he was shocked, he did not rush to express his opinion.
âI know what youâre thinking, once returned to the sea, if the Mermaid doesnât do as told, I surely wouldnât bother bringing it back.â
Fu Qian clearly understood his thoughts.
âThatâs why I said earlier that I was very satisfied with your performances.â
Fu Qian smiled faintly.
âThough not human, I still believe in this Bond, which can keep her going for a long time.â
âRight?â
This sentence was spoken to the little mermaid, and Fu Qian made a killing gesture towards Delanlay.
âWhat exactly do you want to doâŠâ
Ignoring Delanlayâs question of despair, Fu Qian tossed the Mermaid back into the sea.
âDonât swim too fast, but make your singing louder.â
Pointing at his throat, he advised the Mermaid gazing this way, then signaled her to start moving.
In practice, the Mermaid disappointed Delanlayâs expectations again, diving into the water after a slight hesitation.
Not long after, a melodious tune really started to rise in the sea.
âWhat do you want to doâŠâ
Watching the Thread of Concern slowly changing its angle in his view, Fu Qian then answered Delanlayâs question.
âNaturally, itâs to help her find her way back, to find the true opportunity for the Mermaid kind.â
âŠ
No matter from which angle considered, Vivian had no reason to let too many Fishmen out.
So behind those Fishmen whom she didnât know how they left, could there be a possibility of not just pure accident, but a special power guiding?
If itâs really so, there could hardly be anything that would make this low-key yet kind entity react more than a little Mermaid about to stray.
I might be able to leave anytime, but for others trapped here, including the Mermaid, this might actually be a possible way out.
âOf course, as a trustworthy person, you wonât die before then.â
Fu Qian looked at Delanlayâs broken wounds.
âLetâs go, I know a place where we might find things to dress wounds.â
