How to become a mermaid

Chapter 12 Lullaby

Sea anemones are carnivores.

The food of sea anemone larvae is generally plankton in the sea and some small particles of organic matter.

In order to feed his little sea anemones, Shamanlell catches small fish and shrimps every day, shreds them into pieces and feeds them to the sea anemones.

I don't know if it's too nutritious, or the way he feeds is wrong, the sea anemone of Samantel... grows split!
In Shamanleir's expectation, his sea anemone larvae should grow bigger and bigger, and quickly grow into beautiful adult sea anemones. As a result, his sea anemone did grow bigger and bigger, but not the whole growth, But only internal growth.

The outermost skin of the sea anemones did not keep up with the growth rate of their bodies, causing their huge bodies to stretch the skin, and cracks appeared on the surface of the body.

Looking at the glaring lines on the little sea anemones, Shamanlael was very sad.

Holding the glass bottle containing the small sea anemone, he murmured to himself suspiciously: "What's wrong? Did I feed too much? But... I don't see a full-fledged sea anemone in my eyes?"

Shamanleir's eyes can detect a lot of information, including the state of the creatures he sees at this time, but since he raised these small sea anemones, he has never seen any sea anemones in a state of fullness.

They are obviously not full, but their growth rate is so unnatural.

"Hey, feed a little less food every day in the future, and see if it can alleviate the situation." Shamrel sighed, and decided to let these little guys be hungry.

In the next few days, he reduced the frequency of feeding the little anemones, but the situation did not improve. The cracks on the anemones' bodies were getting bigger and bigger, and they were about to burst.

Shaman Lair made another change, changing the type of food to be fed, replacing small fish and shrimp with seaweed and the like.

But the situation didn't get better. The little anemones became unhappy due to lack of food, but their bodies continued to swell.

In the eyes of Shaman Lair, the state of these sea anemones has always been [hunger].

This situation lasted for several days, leaving Samantel at a loss.

Finally, on the ninth day after the baby anemone was born, the first dead anemone appeared.

The skin of this sea anemone was so inflated that it could no longer inflate, like a balloon that was fully inflated, it burst at a certain moment and exploded into an everted sea anemone flower.

And this is just the beginning, with the first one, there will be the second one, Shamanleir's little anemones revealed themselves one after another.

"Crack, clap, clap..."

Under Shamanleir's gaze, the sea anemone larvae in the glass bottle exploded one by one, just like setting off fireworks.

Seeing such fireworks, Samantel was not happy at all, he was very angry - the results of his hard work for so long were all blown up.

After a burst of crackling, only a bunch of fragments of sea anemone remained in the glass bottle, and even the body of the bottle was covered with the fragments of sea anemone. The glass bottle, which was originally clean and bright, had become filthy. .

"Ah——! Fuck your broken sea anemone!" Shamanleir's mentality collapsed a little. He took the glass bottle and slammed it hard, knocking it on a piece of coral reef.

The glass bottle that hit the coral reef suddenly shattered, and the remnants of the sea anemone floating in the water quickly attracted the attention of the coral fish. These colorful little fish quickly swam to snatch food with their tails wagging.

Shaman Laier's first sea anemone hybridization experiment failed just like that!

For a moment, he had the idea not to bother, instead of trying to cultivate hybrid sea anemones, it would be better to find that [Solanum nigrum] Ao Lei.

Maybe under his stalking, maybe one day Ole would agree to let Shamanlell sleep on him.

But... Giving up just like that made Shamanleer feel unwilling.

"Ah... It's really troublesome to raise sea anemones." Shaman Lair sighed.

His entire body fell back, paralyzed in the water like a salted fish.

Shamanleir floated in the water along the current without moving. He put his hands behind his head, closed his eyes and thought about every step of his experiment, trying to figure out what went wrong.

This should be a very simple matter, Aur star is full of hybrid species, even dragons and sea anemones can give birth to children, how come he can't even handle the hybridization of two mere sea anemones!

Floating and floating, Samantel suddenly felt a chill on the back of his neck.

"Samanale!" An angry voice came from the top of his head, Shamanlae opened his eyes suddenly, and found that it was Alicia who strangled the back of his fate.

Alicia's bright face was full of frost when she saw Shamanleir being disobedient again.

She stared at Shamanleir with a serious expression, and scolded: "How many times have I told you, you must find a hidden place to sleep, the sea is full of dangers, and if you float like this, you are sending other fishes away." Vegetables, be careful that one day they will be swallowed in one gulp!"

"Isn't there still you here? I know you will look at me." Shaman Lair said with a smile.

"Can I watch you forever? You will leave me sooner or later and start living independently." Alicia felt helpless.

Hearing this sentence, Shamanlaer turned his body, stared straight at Alicia with his light purple eyes, and said sincerely: "Can't you leave? I want to live with Alicia forever Together."

"Hahaha, what stupid things are you talking about? There's no reason to live with your mother forever. Aren't you going to never grow up like this?" Alicia took Shamanlell's words as a coquettish to herself.

In fact, she has been paying attention to Shaman Lair, and she also knows that he is in a bad mood because of the failure of the sea anemone experiment.

In order to comfort her child, Alicia directly stretched out her hands to wrap Shamanlaer's shoulders, holding him tightly in her arms.

"Alicia...don't be like this, it's too embarrassing." Caught off guard and hugged, Shamanleir was a little shy.

He struggled a little in Alicia's arms, but found that he couldn't break free. The strength of an adult fish was far beyond that of a cub like him.

Seeing Shamanlaer's reaction, Alicia smiled instead, "Just now I was acting like a baby to my mother, saying that I would be with me forever, but now I'm still shy?"

"It's... different." Shaman Lair said with some embarrassment.

Humans are different from other animals, they are a species that attaches great importance to kinship.

Shaman Lair has human memory, and of course human thinking. With his human thinking, he can't accept the tradition of mermaids living alone once they reach adulthood, and almost never seeing their mothers again.

Especially Shamanleir was an orphan in his previous life, so although he often "disobeyed" Alicia and did things that made her angry, he still cared about her in his heart.

"Hehe...Although sometimes you feel that you are too mature compared to other children, but you are actually quite good at acting like a baby." Alicia noticed Shaman Lair's shyness, and she felt much happier.

She patted Shamanlaer's back lightly, combed his long black hair carefully, and hummed a song softly:

"Da da da... The heavy rain falls, and the waves shake and shake~"

"Clatter... The red moon rises, and islands rise from the sea~"

"La la la... the stars are twinkling, the direction of the bird's beak is the way home~"

"Sleep, sleep, my dear child~"

This is a lullaby that belongs to the mermaid. In Shaman Lair's memory, Alicia often sang it to him when he was young, but it has been a long time since I heard it.

"Don't give up because of a little thing. If you want to do it, you must persevere. My Alicia's child is definitely not the kind of mermaid without perseverance." Alicia whispered in the ear of Shaman Lear.

She didn't like Shamanlell's anemone bed, but she didn't want him to be a mermaid who gave up halfway.

"Hmm..." Shamanel closed his eyes, calmly enjoying her comfort.

"Da da da... The heavy rain falls, and the waves shake and shake~"

"La la la la la ~ ~"

The brisk singing sounded again, and the two fish tails, one white and one blue, swayed lightly in the water, and the wide tail fins intertwined, separated, and intertwined again...

It is said that sirens can sing to confuse passing ships. In fact, mermaids sing better.

It's just that they only sing for the mermaids they like.

　Thanks to the Great Demon King of the World for the reward.
