Sir Chen, your wife is missing!

"Draco women, don't let this king down."

Then they set out on the journey back to the city-state.

“The story finally begins.”

A mysterious man in a black cloak stood in the distance, observing everything.

A young and frivolous demon king who is ignorant of the world and a drake of noble blood, this combination is really interesting.

"I wonder what kind of plot this will turn out to be... hehe."

The mysterious man covered his face and laughed.

Extra 9: The Undersea Demon King Ghost Shark 2

The beach is a long distance away from the city-state, which makes the ghost shark, which has hardly walked on the seabed, a little tired.

Because, Goletia will become his mount.

But that guy refused to come to the land no matter what, claiming that the land was full of terrible people and he would die if he went ashore.

"Hey, human, how far is it?"

She stopped, too lazy to move on.

Although I really want to use my wings, there are humans nearby. If I want to be discovered by them, I can do so without any scruples.

But this time, Ghost Shark wants to have some fun in human form.

"Human, I am tired."

Ghost Shark rubbed his sore calves and an idea came to his mind.

Since it's a human being, it's okay to order it around a little, right?

"Master Demon, we are almost there."

A certain human's legs were very strong and his expression was very relaxed.

When she said "almost there", she only saw the outer wall of the city.

"Maybe a few kilometers."

Feng Qingyu chewed on a pocky and pointed at the road sign ahead, "5 kilometers to the city-state."

It's a distance of five kilometers, and it will take about an hour to walk.

There is no means of transportation where they are, so they can only rely on their own two legs.

Wings? Forget it, or you might think you're a monster. (Although you are a monster.)

However, the ghost shark was tired and didn't want to walk anymore.

"Human, quickly think of a way for me that doesn't require walking and doesn't require exposing my abilities."

The ghost shark felt weak and its body temperature rose after coming ashore.

Is it because we left the water?

The answer is of course yes.

Feng Qingyu, who was walking in front, had to stop.

"If... Lord Demon doesn't mind, I'll let you carry me on my back."

After saying that, she was already squatting on the ground, waiting for the ghost shark to climb onto her back.

The ghost shark frowned, hesitated for a moment, and decided to have close contact with the superficial human.

"Hmph, don't even think about taking advantage of me. If you dare, I'll give you a chance to swim in the ocean with sharks."

A certain demon sneered and clung to Feng Qingyu like a monkey.

"It's lighter than I thought."

A certain human stood up straight, only to feel the weight of several more books on his back.

For all creatures other than humans, is it true that weight and body size are not proportional?

About an hour later, Ghost Shark arrived at the once prosperous city-state, Saltwind City, as he wished.

The tall city walls are arranged in a circular shape, dividing each area neatly.

Vegetable fields and fish ponds are divided into specific areas and will not occupy each other's territory.

Everything looks in good order.

"Oh, Lord Feng Qingyu, good afternoon."

The citizens of the city-state have satisfied and happy smiles on their faces, and their lives are rich and fulfilling.

Along the way, the citizens they met basically all knew this superficial human, Feng Qingyu.

"I didn't expect you to be so beloved."

Ghost Shark's words sounded sour.

Why am I always revered and even feared at the bottom of the sea?

She had ruled the seabed for thousands of years, but she had never seen people smile like this.

So, I have some strange feelings in my heart.

Jealousy, or envy.

"This is all due to my father's good teaching. I am just learning how to govern."

Feng Qingyu was very humble and did not take advantage of his heyday to show off.

After entering the city-state, the ghost shark voluntarily asked to come down and walk.

If someone saw it, I would be embarrassed.

The afternoon sun was bright, even a little hot.

"So hot--"

Ghost Shark felt like he was about to be roasted by the temperature of the air.

"Human...I need water, and I need it now."

She half-closed her eyes, pulled Feng Qingyu's sleeve, and her body was limp.

Due to lack of water, she saw double everything.

Feng Qingyu tactfully brought Ghost Shark to a small stand selling cold drinks.

"One mango smoothie and one watermelon smoothie."

She ordered skillfully and even had to look at the menu.

"It turns out to be Lord Feng Qingyu, what an honored guest."

The stall owner was a wealthy middle-aged woman who was very familiar with Feng Qingyu, and the two started chatting.

The city lord’s daughter...it doesn’t feel bad at all.

Being warm and friendly, and remembering the names of their people...

"It's not as scary as Gloria said."

Next, the ghost shark tasted a smoothie made by a superficial human.

With a fruity aroma and a cool feeling, the feeling of almost dying of heat just now seemed like a dream.

"Hmph, you did a good job. I will reluctantly recognize you a little. Now, you have become an ordinary human being in my eyes."

Ghost Shark smiled and enjoyed the treat offered by others without any hesitation.

"The Demon King is surprisingly a simple...demon."

A trace of guilt flashed across Feng Qingyu's eyes, but it was fleeting, and then he returned to calm.

What am I thinking?

Although he was also eating a smoothie, Feng Qingyu's mood was not as calm as he appeared.

Time was running out...she needed to go faster, faster.

For the "Heart of the Ghost Shark", a rare gem that only appears once every thousand years.

The two guys of different races established a preliminary "friendship", and the relationship progressed at a steady pace and was on an upward trend.

"Human, I will come to you again in the future."

After the sun sets, the ghost shark returns to the deep sea and agrees on the next meeting time.

Watching the girl's figure gradually disappearing on the sea, Feng Qingyu's smile gradually disappeared, replaced by indifference and resentment.

Saltwind City, the city lord’s residence.

After seeing the master Feng Qingyu coming back, a woman who looked like a housekeeper came up to greet him.

"My lord, the wizard is here again and is waiting for you in the reception room."

Feng Qingyu nodded slightly, turned around and walked towards the reception room.

That person cannot be neglected.

The guest, known as the wizard, wore a black cloak, a black hood on his head, and a mask with intricate patterns on his face, similar to the one worn by the high priest during a sacrifice.

This man is very mysterious. The locals don't know his name, so they call him "wizard".

It is true that he does know some strange spells, such as the spell that can keep a person's body from decaying.

"Wizard, sorry for the wait."

Feng Qingyu bowed to him to show his respect.

A deep voice came from behind the mask.

"Sir, my lady...she only has less than a month left."

The wizard sighed, "My spell can only take effect once and cannot be used repeatedly, otherwise it will be counterproductive."

Hearing this, Feng Qingyu's expression became extremely painful.

"Wizard...how long is left?"

She covered her face, unwilling to think about that incident. As soon as she thought about it, despair would immediately overwhelm her.

"About three weeks. My Lord, you must hurry."

Feng Qingyu couldn't see what kind of expression was beneath the mask, but she had to believe what this person said.

"I'll...as soon as possible."

After sending the wizard away, she pressed the button on the wall and a secret door appeared on the wall.

The temperature inside the secret door is very low, and white smoke can be seen coming out.

This is an ice cellar.

Feng Qingyu walked into the ice cellar and turned on a light. In the middle of the ice cellar was a bed with a young woman lying on it.

The woman's eyes were closed, her skin was pale, and she had stopped breathing, but her body was intact.

"My dear, wait for me for a while, and you will be resurrected."

Feng Qingyu held her cold hand and his expression softened.

"I will definitely get the "Heart of the Ghost Shark"."

In the following days, ghost sharks began to come ashore more frequently.

As a servant, Goletia's worries grew.

"Mr. Ghost Shark... You've been coming ashore more often recently."

She felt very uncomfortable, as if someone she loved had been taken away from her, and she felt empty inside.

From the moment they met, Gloria emphasized that she liked Ghost Shark very much, but the latter just took it as a boring joke and laughed it off.

"I... really like Mr. Ghost Shark."

Looking at her master's departing back, Gloria's eyes were filled with loss.
