The Mermaid Asks for Love - Chapter 3

The Mermaid was very happy to return to the sea.

However, it never dared to swim too far, always staying within my line of sight.

Occasionally, when I grew tired from refining potions and stretched my shoulders, I would see it quietly watching me.

Whenever it wasn’t raining, I always kept the window open. The cross breeze was very pleasant.

The sound of the waves seemed almost addictive.

Sometimes, when the waves were too strong, a crab or a shell would be tossed inside.

These little creatures weren’t afraid at all, as if they had entered their own backyard, curiously examining every item in the room.

I crouched down, and the little crab waved its claws at me.

I touched its claw with my finger.

It seemed a bit stunned, as if it hadn’t expected me to actually touch it.

It didn’t pinch me.

I laughed and tossed it back into the sea.

The sea is the Mermaid’s true home, but the Mermaid I keep has no sense of security.

It usually plays with fish, shrimp, and turtles, but after I finish my work, it swims under the eaves, gazing at me with longing eyes.

I sat by the window and raised my eyebrows.

“Want to sleep inside?”

The Mermaid blushed and nodded.

I pulled it up.

It also really liked my Magic Stone, lying by the window and gazing up at it.

Its eyes sparkled brightly.

I yawned and went inside to sleep.

They probably don’t know that these sparkling things are the most precious treasures on the entire continent.

Especially the ones I refine.

Priceless, impossible to find in the world.
