Sir Chen, your wife is missing!

People said that she was a terrible monster who single-handedly destroyed a city-state that was about to become a country, namely Saltwind City.

What does an ancient monster with a shark body, tentacles, huge eagle claws and wings look like?

His legs felt a little weak, but for Kal'tsit, Feng Qingyu had to force himself to be strong.

If I really get scared, then Kal'tsit will be hopeless.

The accompanying sea girl patted her comfortingly.

"Mr. Ghost Shark, it's not as scary as you think, but...communication is up to you."

The Demon King is a man of few words who doesn't want to have too much contact with other people, so she can't predict their reactions.

There was a sound of unlocking from the back of the stone door, and the two heavy stone doors moved to the sides, revealing the entrance to the palace.

A girl with long gray hair and a sleepy expression stood by the door, half-squinting her eyes and looking at the visitor outside the door.

Feng Qingyu also saw her.

"Oh, you... are the girl who was stopped by the gangsters..."

Because of her eye-catching hair color, Feng Qingyu recognized her at a glance.

The ghost shark also recognized this guy as the human who rescued it that day.

This made her less wary.

"What do you want from me?"

After inviting the guests into the courtyard, Ghost Shark didn't bother to say a word.

"So... you are the Ghost Shark?"

Feng Qingyu almost couldn't hold the teacup in his hand.

At first glance, I thought she was just a maid in the Ghost Shark Palace.

I didn’t expect that the underwater devil was actually a beauty.

"Why, is there a problem? Regarding my identity as the king."

Ghost Shark spoke in a cold tone, and his every move and gesture was different from that of a maid.

Feng Qingyu felt that he had made a mistake.

"I'm sorry... Demon Lord..."

She lowered her head in embarrassment.

Because the legend was so different from reality, she was a little confused.

The ghost shark no longer has much patience, especially when it comes to chatting with humans.

"So, please tell me why you are here."

She made a "go ahead, please" gesture.

The surroundings suddenly became quiet and no one spoke.

So...awkward.

Feng Qingyu rubbed the hem of his clothes nervously and organized his words.

As the saying goes, "You only regret not having studied enough when you need it", and now I have finally failed.

I really regret not studying hard and becoming a literary girl.

"Um... Lord Demon, can you lend me your heart?"

Without any detours or preparation, Feng Qingyu stated his purpose directly.

After saying this, she wanted to strangle herself to death immediately.

Oh my god...what did I say? Didn't I say that I would make a request only after we had a good chat?

So, it's all over.

Ghost Shark drank his tea slowly, neither answering nor refuting.

In fact, seeing this human, she could guess that he was most likely here for her heart.

Which human being who has the ability to come to the bottom of the sea doesn't want this?

"What's the reason?"

Ghost Shark put down the teacup, folded his hands on his knees, and looked steady.

"The reason... is of course to save someone... a... very important person."

Thinking of Kal'tsit, Feng Qingyu's mood began to become depressed again.

If the Demon King does not agree, Kal'tsit will eventually die.

This scene seems familiar to me at some point.

That human also took out his own heart in order to save a very important person.

The painful memories recalled and returned to the ghost shark's mind like sea water flowing back.

"My Lord Demon, I think I'm in love with you."

That human being deceived his own heart with these words.

Human beings are indeed all the same.

The ghost shark snorted coldly, feeling disgusted.

"If I ask for your life in exchange, what will you do?"

She stared into Feng Qingyu's eyes. His deep red pupils were exactly the same as those of the human who had deceived her.

It looks clear and innocent, but underneath it may be hiding many dirty thoughts and intentions.

"I do...if I can save her, I do!"

Feng Qingyu agreed without hesitation.

The ghost shark, which had been calm all the time, was a little shaken.

It was unexpected that it was so refreshing.

"Who is that person to you?"

She waved the fan in her hand and found the matter quite interesting.

If you can, by taking advantage of her obsession, this human would make a great plaything.

"The person I loved...she died because of me before she even had the chance to hear my answer."

It was a very embarrassing answer and Feng Qingyu blushed a little.

"Wow—"

Ghost Shark folded his folding fan.

The moment she put away the folding fan, an idea came to her mind.

This is a toy God gave me...

"Human, do as I say, and I will consider your request."

There was no warmth in those blood-red eyes, only murderous intent.

A glimmer of hope ignited in Feng Qingyu's heart.

"If it's okay... Demon King, please speak up..."

The sea girl standing by felt that something was wrong.

This idiot agreed to the devil's request so casually, which was really asking for his own death.

It would be strange if Lord Ghost Shark agreed so easily.

Judging from her expression, she clearly wanted to play with this human.

"Then please stand up."

After yawning, Ghost Shark stood up.

She wanted to test the character of this human being.

If you are just a talker who talks about benevolence, righteousness, and morality for fun, I can only say sorry, please go away.

What is the devil's plan?

Feng Qingyu was confused and stood up obediently.

Before he could stand still, something like a sharp blade pierced his chest right at his heart.

The blood was spilled and diluted in the sea water.

When he looked down, he saw that what pierced his body was a light blue translucent tentacle.

"Wow... Demon Lord... I can't take you like this, can I?"

Someone spat out a mouthful of blood.

Before he could say a few words, he was stabbed by the other party. He might die under the tentacles of the devil this time.

The tentacle was only a little distance away from her heart, it was cold and slippery, and the suction cups on the tentacle moved maliciously, tickling the area around the wound, causing both pain and itchiness, which was very uncomfortable.

Feng Qingyu was very scared, worrying that the devil would take out his heart in the next second.

"Human, does it hurt?"

The ghost shark pulled out its tentacles and licked the blood on them.

It tastes fishy and sweet, very fresh and delicious.

Feng Qingyu was a little unsteady on his feet and knelt on the ground.

I was suddenly stabbed. Do I need to ask? It hurts so much!

"No...it doesn't hurt. I get hurt all the time. I'm used to it."

She smiled casually and wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth.

If you show weakness in front of the devil, you will look like a coward.

The ghost shark raised its eyebrows and retracted its tentacles.

This human didn’t cry out of fear, nor did he wet his pants. It’s interesting.

"Become my servant... Make me happy, and I may be able to help you."

Ghost Shark's mind is full of bad ideas.

Feng Qingyu stood in front of the mirror, unable to imagine himself becoming like this.

The worn-out linen gown without sleeves, how could this be a servant? This was clearly the standard attire of a slave!

"Master Demon...can't you change into a different outfit?"

Feng Qingyu felt his legs were cold. This servant outfit was too revealing. The hem only reached the upper thigh, basically exposing the entire leg.

Are you sure you're not selling your body? You're wearing something so revealing.

"Well, you can choose not to wear it."

Ghost Shark was flipping through a book on the recliner, his eyes swept across someone's legs, and he nodded slightly. Stupid and vulgar humans actually have such a beautiful woman.

"Go and tidy up the study for this king."

Ghost Shark half opened his eyes and pointed to a room next to him.

What? Tidying up the study again?

The study room owned by the nobles became a shadow for Feng Qingyu. How should I put it? Countless books, endless dust, and endless work.

That's why she doesn't like reading!

This was the first order. In order for Kal'tsit to survive, Feng Qingyu had no choice but to grit his teeth and agree.

---------------

"It hurts……"

She covered her chest which had just been stabbed and grimaced.
