Deep sea mermaid head-to-head strategy

"You ask," Sweet said.

Klein thought about these words many times in the middle of the night, before blurting out: "Am I human?"

It's really funny to ask others if you are a human being.

If ordinary people, such as Dick and Nata, heard such a question, they might laugh out loud.

Sweet didn't find it abrupt, and was very understanding, as if pretending to be listening, and let Klein continue.

Klein was originally facing Sweet, clenched his hand hanging by his side, but turned to face Sweet, caught a glimpse of that perfect face, and thought about the "side effects" that would follow, his gaze Move down and stop on the bridge of Sweet's nose.

"I am to you..."

It's really embarrassing to say that you are sexually attracted to someone in front of someone. The problem is imminent. Klein didn't care too much. He only hesitated for a few seconds and said truthfully:

"Every time I see you, I have some strange reactions, like a racing heart, or... From what I know about myself, these reactions are not out of love."

Sweet's focus is all on the second half of his sentence: "Are you sure?"

"..." Klein: "Sure."

"You didn't sleep well because of this?"

"Ah."

"Do you think this is the physiological reaction of ordinary mermaids to high-level mermaids?"

"Isn't it?"

"It seems that you accept it quickly."

"..."

Sweet's words were equivalent to fulfilling his guess in a disguised form. The stone hanging in his heart fell to the ground, and there was nothing to struggle with.

"During the second growing pains, I bit you. At that time, I smelled the same kind of breath in your blood." Sweet said.

"..."

It turned out that he found out so early.

Seven years ago, Sweet lived in Port Paloi for nearly half a year, but he had never shed blood in front of Sweet, otherwise at that time...

Klein's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly asked, "What about my grandpa?"

"Your grandpa was fully human," Sweet said.

"……how come?"

"It's normal. Mermaid blood is difficult to survive in the intergenerational inheritance with other species. Most of the offspring of mermaids and humans are ordinary humans, and the proportion of mixed blood is very small. As for the pure mermaid offspring, there is no [-]. The mermaid blood in your body has been diluted for at least four or five generations, either there is a phenomenon of atavism, or..."

Sweet didn't go any further, and Klein knew what he meant—either he and grandpa had no blood relationship.

Whether there is a blood relationship is not important to Klein. He has never met his parents since he was a child and grew up by his grandfather. As long as the bond between himself and his grandfather is real, it is enough.

There was a long silence in the kitchen.

Guessing is guessing. Confirming that he is not a complete human has brought a lot of shock to Klein. After a long time of mental construction, he asked bitterly, "I will also grow a fish tail?"

"No. Your mermaid blood is too thin to support you to become a mermaid, and of course you don't have to go through the transformation period."

Finally there is good news.

Klein heaved a sigh of relief.

He has been looking at his legs for 24 years. If these legs suddenly turn into fish tails, let alone others, he will be the first to be unable to adapt.

The insomnia last night was largely due to his anxiety caused by the fish tail he had imagined. Now that he knew that picture would never appear, his state was visibly relaxed.

Sweet: "Don't worry about your life changing. You don't need to change now or in the future. In fact, you have doubts because you don't know enough about mermaids. Mermaids are not vicious monsters. Apart from growing fish tails and breathing underwater, being on land is no different from human habits.

"There are many hybrid descendants of mermaids and humans on the mainland, and there are very few legends about mermaids, which is enough to show that mermaids can perfectly integrate into the human world, become mermaids, or be with mermaids, and you will get some conveniences that humans do not have. No other aspects will be affected."

"..."

Klein realized that his rejection of the mermaid hybrid identity was too obvious, which might cause Sweet's displeasure, so he whispered, "Sorry."

Sweet nodded slightly, as if he didn't take Klein's words to heart.

All doubts about identity were answered, and the rest were optional questions.

Klein found a reasonable explanation for Sweet's recent behavior: "So, you cling to me because you realize that I am your kind?"

"Stuck?" Sweet tasted the word strangely, then smiled and said, "No."

"?"

Sweet looked at Klein with a half-smile, probably meaning "you understand it yourself".

When talking to Sweet, Klein unconsciously turned to face him directly, and the feeling of dizziness and blood rushing did not come for a long time.

He couldn't figure it out and asked, "Why does my heart beat faster sometimes when I see you, and sometimes not?"

"That's up to me," Sweet said comfortably.

"What do you mean?"

Sweet looked at Klein, his voice slowed down, and his eyes became more meaningful: "Mermaids are usually very honest about their desires, and they don't mind using some auxiliary means when courting a mate."

... courtship?

The heart-pounding feeling came again, and Klein could only look away in confusion.

Sweet was propped on the kitchen table, leaning close to him, the cool and pleasant smell came, and the magic power in his voice touched his heartstrings: "It's not normal to want the person you like to beat faster for you. matter?"
