Chapter 955: Someone you might know
The Merman King and Queen both laughed on the inside.
They knew that this was their daughter's special move which she had already used on many bachelors in their Merman Empire, so they knew that this was effective.
This was further proven by the crown prince who looked like he had no idea what he was supposed to do now.
The Tide Emperor showed a trace of disapproval for the crown prince for the first time.
At a time like this, he was faltering.
This wasn't like the crown prince that he raised, but he also didn't say anything as he watched what would happen. This was a matter between the crown prince and Ariel, so it wasn't as if he could just butt in if he wanted.
The crown prince actually didn't have a backup plan since he had been confident that this would work.
He had gone in with the full confidence that he would be able to make Ariel his, but in the end...he was just left there with a dumb look on his face.
This was a stark contrast from the normal confident and handsome crown prince.
If there were any of his fans that could see him now, they certainly would have been disheartened.
This was why they said love was blind.
The crown prince was blind when it came to his own love and didn't care even though he had been made a fool of.
It was just that Ariel was already done with him and had moved aside so that he could no longer talk to her.
The Tide Emperor could only reveal an awkward look as he stood there with the Meman King and Queen. The situation didn't look good for him or the crown prince, but at least they were here to discuss this matter.
So the Tide Emperor said, "Shall we go in and talk?"
The Merman King and Queen had one last look at the crown prince who was standing there like a fool before nodding in agreement and leading the way in.
The room that they sat down in was a room that had already been prepared for them, so there were refreshments that were already waiting for them.
The Tide Emperor didn't hesitate at all as he sat down at one side of the table.
When the Merman King and Queen sat down as well, the Tide Emperor asked, "Your
majesties, was there a need to call this urgent meeting? I'm sure that this was something that we could have discussed at leisure, there was no need to rush this, right?"
He didn't have a blaming tone as he said this, he just had a curious tone which showed that there were no ill intentions behind his words.
Only, the Merman King and Queen didn't seem to be on the same page.
The Merman King said, "Of course there was a need to call this meeting. There's something important that I want to discuss with you."
"Huh?" The Tide Emperor couldn't hide the surprise and confusion that appeared on his face.
But that expression didn't last long as he forced himself to calm down.
While he was curious what they wanted to discuss, he didn't let himself show it since he couldn't give up that information. If they were to misunderstand because of his reaction, then that would be bad for the Tide Empire.
This was a skill that one trained when one became a ruler.
One couldn't react easily or else one might be misunderstood.
So he forced himself to keep calm as he asked, "What important matter?"
The Merman King didn't explain what he meant by this as he looked at the Tide Emperor with slightly narrowed eyes.
When the Tide Emperor saw this, he couldn't help feeling more and more confused.
He just didn't understand what the Merman King was doing looking at him like this.
The Tide Emperor tried to think about what this could all be about, but he just couldn't think of a single thing. It didn't seem like his Tide Empire had done anything to the Merman Empire.
Seeing that the Merman King wouldn't say anything, the Tide Emperor finally couldn't take it anymore as he shook his head and said, "I have no idea what you mean."
Since he couldn't figure out what was happening, he decided not to beat around the bush.
With the relationship that was between the Tide Empire and the Merman Empire, there was nothing to gain from beating around the bush.
The Merman King didn't answer the doubts of the Tide Emperor right away. Instead, he turned to look at one of the royal mermaid guards who gave a nod back and left the room. The Tide Emperor was as confused as usual, but he waited to see what this would be.
When the royal mermaid guard came back, he wasn't alone.
He was leading someone by some kind of rope that was attached to that person's neck.
But that wasn't the thing that attracted their attention when they saw this person. The thing that attracted their attention right away was the fact that this person had their eyes blindfolded, was missing their arms, and seemed to be unable to speak. The group from the Tide Empire just couldn't understand why this person was brought in for them to see. However, after this person was brought in, the Merman King just calmly looked at them and said, "I think that this is someone that you might know."
"Huh?" The entire Tide Empire group was shocked and confused when they heard this.
There wasn't a single person that recognized the one that had been brought in.
Even if that person was complete, they wouldn't have recognized him because they had never seen this person in their life.
The Tide Emperor deeply knitted his brows when he came back to his senses.
He didn't believe that the Merman King would do something like this for no reason, so did that mean that this person was somehow related to the Tide Empire?
