Chapter 485 - Volume 3
“I never heard of any incidents where the Merfolk appeared alongside the Nagas. May I know the reason why?” Brendel asked as he stood by the side of the boat.
“That’s unrelated to you, Human!” Before Sani could speak up, the woman next to him coldly glared at him. She had a pair of slim arms, her body slim and looked really similar to a human girl. It was clear that she was not a Naga, but an authentic Merfolk.
Looks like she’s pissed off now.
The Merfolk were originally peaceful creatures, and never participated in any cases or robbery. If it was not for them facing a dire situation, they would definitely not break that code and appear here. It made her angry at the fact that the human used a straight face to ask that question. That guy is really dumb! I just hope there won’t be any rumors suggesting that we’re pirates now as well.
“Seems like you all are facing some troubles,” Brendel said with him keen perception.
“What are you suggesting?” Sani said with his brows arched.
“I was just wondering if I could help with anything.” Brendel curiously asked.
Sani glared at Brendel, “If your goods are really that miraculous as they say, then I promise you that, as long as you don’t harbor any ill intentions against the Grey Fins, you will always be our friend.”
In other words, if Brendel’s words were to be a lie, the previous promise would be nulled as well. Sani did not come to a conclusion immediately. He did not believe that someone would just benefit someone to this extent for no reason. Since the Mermaid behind him confirmed that the bottle was worth half the Shining Sea, then it must be worth that much. And he did not think someone would just give up that much wealth away.
All will be revealed with just some tests. He gestured at the others, and submerged back into the water with the Mermaid, leaving only a trace on the ocean surface.
The remaining Nagas waited until all of them disappeared from the ocean surface, before notifying Brendel and co, “Human friend, Lord Sani ordered us to protect you on your journey.”
Brendel nodded. Instead of calling it protection, why not call it surveillance? But if the Holy Potion No.1 really works, these Nagas would definitely deliver us safely to Ampere Seale. Not like they can do anything anyway. Thinking back, what was the huge scar on Sani’s left shoulder? I don’t remember seeing it the last time I met him. He must’ve gotten it during this battle.
He initially wanted to point that out to Sani, but he decided not to. After all, a life and death experience was really precious to a warrior.
Looking back, this favor he bought was not a big one. But becoming friends with the Grey Fins was indeed unexpected. He looked up to see the sailors pulling up the sails and prepared to continue their journey while James was standing by the side, saying amusingly, “My Lord is really good at dealing business.”
