Fast Time Travel: The Villain's Self-Saving Strategy

The first time I saw him was on my 15th birthday.Grandma told me that I can finally go to the sea to see the human world!My grandmother inlaid the most beautiful pearls in the bottom of my fishtail, and put a beautiful lily wreath on me. With the advice of my sisters, I swam to the surface of the sea full of expectations.

The sea is our home, but not to humans.When I was swimming on the surface of the sea, I saw a young and beautiful prince. He was very like the marble statue I had collected in the sea. I couldn't help looking at him.The young prince's boat was ablaze with lights, and I was mesmerized by the beautiful lights and fireworks.

I approached quietly, and when I wanted to take a closer look, I found another ship heading in this direction.I can only hide away again and dive into the sea again.I remember my grandmother's words, can't be found by humans.

The boat gradually got closer and closer to me. I looked into the boat curiously. It was a very big and empty boat.Unlike the gorgeous ship by the sea, there is only one person on the deck of this big ship.It was a handsome young man with black hair and black eyes, and I guessed he must be a prince too.

Because he just stands there, he is different from others.His dignified temperament and self-cultivation in manner made him stand out in the crowd, even the beautiful young prince just now couldn't compare to him.I was full of curiosity about him for a while, so I quietly followed the boat.

Before I had time to observe carefully, the storm came.His boat was quickly sunk by the waves, and I saw those poor people screaming and struggling in panic.I also quickly followed the ship to look for him, and when the hull shattered and sank to the bottom of the sea, I found him.

At that moment, I thought I saw the hero of the story my grandmother used to tell.

My prince, I began to secretly call him that in my heart.I saw him insist on throwing the kickboard at the sailors again and again, even though his hands were bruised.Those people all cast grateful glances at him.His resolute look, firm gaze, and calm posture make him look like a warrior fighting against the storm!He's such a great guy, I thought.His body suddenly became extremely tall. At that moment, I could only stare blankly at his every move, unable to move my eyes away at all.

When I came back to my senses, I could no longer see him.My prince is gone!He saved many people, but he left himself alone!I was anxious and worried, and quickly dived into the water to find him.He must be fine!This is my only thought.

Finally, I found him.His eyes were closed, and he didn't look as imposing as before.But in my opinion, he is still so heroic.I picked him up carefully and swam to the shore.I was relieved to get him behind a boulder on the shore so he was fine.Then just wait until humans come.After doing all this, I should have left here, but somehow I was reluctant to leave.I stayed like this on the bottom of the sea behind the boulder, watching him quietly until morning.

In the morning, the storm died down and the sun came up.I saw that the sailors on the beach holding the floating boards were also brought to the shore by the waves, and people have come over one after another.I saw that my prince woke up too, and a young and beautiful girl came to ask him with concern.He expressed his gratitude to her. Seeing them talking harmoniously, I was a little sad and disappointed.Yes, my prince does not know that I saved him.

Just when I thought he would leave with everyone, he turned down the girl with a smile.I was inexplicably happy, my prince was really different from others.I saw people leaving one after another until he was the only one left.Now it's just the two of us here, though he doesn't know me.

I looked at him secretly as if obsessed, until he got up, I suddenly panicked, is he leaving?In a panic, I disrupted the water splash, and he suddenly looked back at me, I, I was discovered!In addition to being flustered and at a loss, my heart was even more joyful, my prince, he finally saw me.

"Thank you, I know you saved me," he said.

He even knew!My mind was dizzy, and I watched him leave without knowing why.It wasn't until his back disappeared for a long time that I came back to my senses.

My prince, he sees me!He thanked me!He knows I saved him!He knows I exist!My heart is as sweet as drinking the sweetest mead in the sea, I am so happy!But, does he know that I'm not human?Will he hate me?He... These questions are like kelp tangled in my mind.I like the brave prince, I like the prince who thanked me, I want to be with him.

This kind of belief is like a seed that took root in my heart and quickly grew into a towering tree.I think I like him more than my parents, and I can't help but miss him.I'm willing to risk everything to win him, even if I don't get an eternal soul in the end.I must go to the human world, I want to be with him.

This conviction was so strong that I did not wait long before I went to the witch and agreed to her terms.

When I came to the human world for the first time, I was a little apprehensive.But fortunately, the people here are very kind. I asked all the way, and soon one of them told me his location.I was full of anticipation in my heart, and I was a little apprehensive, so I found him.Will he accept me?Will he want me to follow him?

"Please come in." It was the first time I heard his voice, it was so gentle and quiet.

He seemed a little surprised when he saw me, then frowned and looked at my feet, and gently hugged me to heal my wounds.Even though I had imagined it many times in my head, I never imagined that our official meeting would look like this.He didn't ask anything, didn't make too many guesses, and seemed to accept me so naturally.

Despite my doubts, I am very happy.All the following days were like a dream, and I experienced a happy feeling that I had never experienced in my life.I also have a human name, Anne.Even though my feet are suffering all the time, every time I see my prince and take good care of him, I feel no pain at all.Just when I thought we would go to the wedding in such a warm and happy way, my prince suddenly told me that he already had a fiancée, and now he was leaving to go back to the wedding.

Like a bolt from the blue, I was at a loss at that moment, and I heard that my heart seemed to be broken into countless pieces.He didn't explain much, just looked at me sadly.And me, what should I do?

At night, my sisters appeared, they gave me a dagger, and advised me to kill him and become a mermaid again.I shook my head, even if I couldn't marry him and would end up like foam at sea, I never thought of killing him.This is something that doesn't need to be thought about at all. I became a human in the first place just to be with him, and I would rather not have that eternal soul.I would never hurt him, even if he hurt me.

It's a pity that I couldn't go to the end with him.It doesn't matter, because my prince is a hero, he has his pride, and he will definitely do what he promises to others.It's just sad why it wasn't me who met him in the first place.

Thinking this way, I was about to throw away the dagger when I realized that he had woken up!I am afraid that he will misunderstand that I want to hurt him, how I wish I could talk to him at this moment!Fortunately, my prince was not mistaken.We came to the place where we met for the first time, and I couldn't help but smile when I heard him tell those little things.

What a blissful short time that was.

But what happened next caught me off guard.My prince plunged the dagger into his chest without hesitation!I didn't have time to think about how he knew all this. At that moment, my already broken heart seemed to fall into the boundless abyss!So cold, so hopeless!

I cried and watched blood flow from his wound, and he tried to comfort me by pretending to be relaxed.God, please help him if you can!Even if I give my everything!His blood successfully turned me back into a mermaid, but his life is dying right now!I can't let it go on like this!

I found the witch a second time.

"No time! As long as you are willing to save him, I can promise you anything!" I heard my anxious voice.

"Okay." The witch laughed strangely, and handed me a bottle of potion, "You can come to me after you drink this for him!"

I didn't have time to think about it, so I hurried ashore with the potion in the purple crystal, saw his pale face, and carefully fed the potion into his mouth.After feeding a bottle of medicine, I saw that his face became rosy again and his breathing became stable again, so I breathed a sigh of relief.Next, go to the witch's appointment.I took a last look at his sleeping face with nostalgia, bent down and kissed his face lightly, just like the first time I saw him.

Farewell, my prince.

"What do you need from me?" I asked the witch.

"Haha, I can finally be free!" The witch laughed wildly.

I was horrified to find that my body was changing, the smooth and beautiful blond hair became grey-black, greasy and messy, the soft and delicate skin became rough and dark, and the beautiful fishtail on the lower body became dirty and ugly... I suddenly Realizing something, he looked at his own face—it was the face of a witch with an ugly and terrifying face and sharp teeth!My tears fell in horror and I became a witch!

"You promised me that you can give everything. From now on, you are the witch at the bottom of the sea, and I am the beautiful mermaid princess!" The witch smiled strangely, and her face and body were also changing rapidly. Became what I was before.

"You will always live ugly in the dark bottom of the sea! You will be accompanied by terrible skulls and fierce octopuses until another fool who is willing to give everything comes to replace you!" The witch laughed wildly and left.

I stared blankly at that ugly and terrifying face, and couldn't help but reach out and touch it, it was true.Is that the price?

Do you regret it?Compared with his life, this is really nothing.correct!He should have woken up, I can take another look at him!I swam up slowly and unfamiliarly, no longer as agile as I used to be.

Finally, in the morning sun, I saw my prince, healthy, handsome and dazzling.Great, he's fine.Just when I was about to come out of the sea to greet him, I suddenly remembered that I was an ugly and terrifying witch now, not the beautiful Anne he was familiar with.At that moment, I felt pain.Obviously my prince is right in front of my eyes, but I can't meet him.

In the end, I could only watch him leave until I could no longer see his back.

God, if this is my punishment, then I accept it.
