Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure

Chapter 952: Man to man

The sun quickly set and soon it was night time.

Before the sun had set, we saw what happened to Viper in the end.

They had been very efficient with their work, cutting off both his arms and his tongue without much blood. It seemed that they had used flames to sear off the wounds that had been left behind so that he wouldn't die from blood loss or infection.

The sight of Viper just laying there without any arms and eyes that were completely dim created a very sorry sight.

One might even feel sorry for him if they didn't know what he had done before.

But we wouldn't feel that way since we knew the full extent of his crimes.

After the sun set, I headed out to the beach.

This was without a doubt a very proper beach resort that was constructed as a place for the Tide Empire and Merman Empire to negotiate. Since it was a proper beach resort and it had been a long time since I had a vacation, I took full advantage of this trip to walk on the beach at night.

It would only have been better if I had been able to bring my wives along, but not everything could be perfect.

With the moon high up in the sky and the waves crashing on the beach, it really created a perfect mood.

At the same time, I was able to convince Klein and the others to not follow me. Though it wasn't easy since they were guards that were supposed to protect me in the first place.

Still, I was able to convince them to rest and relax as well.

With the mood that this place set, it really seemed like it would be one of those scenarios where I would meet a beauty on the beach.

As I walked along, I even saw a figure that was just sitting there under the moon on the beach.

It really seemed like I would be having an encounter...but it wasn't the kind of encounter that I thought it would be.

Instead, it was a completely different kind of encounter.

When I came closer, I found that the figure was getting bigger and bigger until it was even bigger than me. As I came closer, I was able to see with the light of the moon that this was a large man who was sitting there on the beach.

Once I came close enough, I found that it was the Merman King sitting there.

With the way that he was sitting there, it seemed like he was thinking about something.

I didn't want to disturb him, so I turned around to leave. Only when I did, his voice suddenly rang out, "What are you sneaking off for? Come and sit, let's have a talk."

When he said this, there was no way that I could just leave.

There was a bitter smile that was on my face at first, but that disappeared when I turned around and went over to sit down beside the Merman King. He didn't seem to notice at all, he didn't even seem to care that I sat down beside him as he kept staring out at the ocean.

There was an awkward silence that lingered in the air as we just sat there.

It didn't seem like the Merman King was going to talk and there really wasn't anything that I could say.

But after a long silence, he finally said, "Thank you."

I was confused at first since I didn't know what he was thanking me for, but I slowly understood why he was thanking me.

It was because of Ariel.

She had run off on her own and there was no telling what would have happened to her if I hadn't found her. While she was a powerful princess of the Merman Empire, that didn't mean that she would be able to handle everything that was on land.

If I hadn't found her, there would have been terrible things that could have happened to her.

At the very least, I didn't do anything too bad other than making that contract with her.

I slowly turned to look at the Merman King who just sat there staring out at the ocean without even looking at me.

After another long silence, I said, "Well, I didn't do it out of the kindness of my heart."

The Merman King gave a slow nod without saying anything.

It didn't seem like he would blame me, which was why I had chosen to confess in the first place. I knew that a relationship was something that had to be built from both sides, it wasn't something that could be built if one side was lying to the other.

Honesty was the best policy when showing sincerity.

There was another long silence that hung there in the air, but I didn't mind since this let me see another side of the Merman King.

I had only ever seen the doting parent side of him, but it seemed like there was the calm and collected ruler side of him.

Though it was only natural that there was this side of him in the first place, or else he wouldn't have been able to rule over a large empire like the Merman Empire.

The two of us sat in silence like this for a bit before he suddenly stood up.

As he stood up, he said, "Regardless of what happened in the past, if you dare have any intentions towards my daughter..."

He didn't finish his sentence, he didn't even look at me as he turned around to walk away. The Merman King just left me with this as he left.

There was a bitter smile that was on my face as a part of me regretted not having the chance to explain, but it didn't matter since there was no need for these kinds of words in man to man talks like this.

There were chances in the future and this was our first time learning from each other.

I'm sure that I will be able to clear this misunderstanding in the future.
