Soul Karmas (BL) - Chapter 386

“Princess… It’s dangerous!”

“Princess, please don’t go!”

Deep in the ocean, the entire mermaid race has assembled, facing the special mermaid princess in their race, which is about to enter the Forbidden Magic Cave that only certain mermaids are allowed to enter.

“Quiet! This is all for the sake of the glory of our Mermaid Race!”

“Don’t stop the Princess from becoming stronger!”

“Yes, this is the perfect time for our Mermaid Race to genuinely become the ruler of the entire ocean!”

“As long as she fulfilled the dream of our race, we would forget her taboo act of mingling with the races that live in Land!”

The entire mermaid race is split into two groups.

One is the group that Margaret has led, dreaming of mixing up with the races in human society while the other group remains stubborn in their old ways, choosing to focus more on the ocean after pushing the Siren away.

“Hmph! You are so old-fashioned, it’s a new era for our race! How long is our race going to keep hiding deep in the ocean without even knowing the world out there?”

“Yes, Princess is our hope! She will lead us into a new era! We won’t have to keep worrying about the future of being troubled by the other races that live in the land after choosing to remain ignorant!”

“Fool! We are creatures of the sea! Why are you so intent on living in the land? This is our home, the territory where we are strongest! So why should we fear the other races that would become weaker, becoming easy to deal with from our territory? It’s better to have nothing to do with them!”

“Yes! Haven’t we been living well now without mingling with those other races? Why bother trying to understand them when they won’t even try to understand us! Don’t forget the pride that belongs to a mermaid race!”

When the two groups of mermaids are about to fight each other as their ideals clash, Margaret has calmly opened her mouth, effectively stopping the group of mermaids that couldn’t decide on what to do.

“There is no need to fight over, as long as I pass the test and receive the power sleeping inside the Forbidden Cave, I will become the ruler of our mermaid race. Everyone will have no choice but to follow my orders because the oldest rule in our race will become effective.”

“…!!!”

It had been a long time and the group of mermaids had almost forgotten the set of rules left in their mermaid race regarding the Forbidden Cave.

Anyone, no matter what status the mermaid has in their race, the one who is able to pass the test and receive the power hidden in their Forbidden Cave would become the leader of the entire mermaid race.

Just as the Siren has the Forbidden Island with a set of rules, their Mermaid race also has a special place that isn’t easy to enter.

So, if the Princess is able to accomplish the old rule, then she will become their genuine leader, no matter what opinion anyone has, they can only bow down their head.

“I’ll definitely survive the test and receive the power. So, everyone needs to begin the preparation. I will let the entire world know about the existence of our Mermaid Race.”

“Yes, we will wait for the Princess to come back and lead our Mermaid Race to Glory.”

At the beginning of their race, no one else has managed to pass the test, while only a few people have managed to come back alive after failing.

And yet, everyone surprisingly believes that the Princess would be able to come back with the power their mermaid race has started to believe as simply impossible to happen after countless years had passed by.

Thus, unknown to everyone, the hidden storm that is about to plunge the entire world into chaos is just waiting to erupt.

…

“Boss, we promise to protect your wife and child at the cost of our life. Please, come to the frontline. Boss, we really need your help.”

Behind the suburb villa in the Imperial City, the male witch Eugene stands behind a taller man that is gazing upon a dense forest with utmost focus. And the entire time, the tall man had been protecting the most treasured existence in his entire life despite what had been occurring in the entire world.

A month has already passed by when the Siren has chosen to remain in the frozen lake while guarding the unborn child and a war occured just two weeks ago, which was started by the Mermaid Princess that has run away after the failed ambush in their villa.

The war-affected everyone, even the normal human has no choice but to be pulled in like every race needed to defend at the sudden attack of the Sea Monsters that has always remained docile in the ocean which has never bothered the people inland.

And aside from the mermaid race and Sea Monsters, there are also other sea demons and other sea races that had sided with them.

Fortunately, the war was only happening in one spot and was slowly spreading, which was better than trying to protect various different parts of their country as the Sea Monsters wrecked chaos and destruction.

“Boss, our enemy is getting stronger, the number of the Sea Monster attacking is increasing. We also considered that a Sea Monster that is able to freely travel inland will soon appear rather than remaining close to the sea. The danger and potential trouble have increased, we really need your help.”

Despite the seriousness of the entire situation, Eugene can see that Claus had remained quiet and indifferent, just standing there with extremely focused eyes in a certain direction, appearing like he didn’t hear the words that had just been spoken.

As I thought… cruelty… heartlessness… is the true nature of this person.

Eugene felt a chill run down his spine as he gazed toward his indifferent friend. He already perceives how hard and indifferent this person’s heart really is in their early years, but he underestimates how heartless Claus could be.

Although Claus has certain care and love toward his family and the people he is close with, when it compares to the person that managed to truly enter his heart, they are simply nothing.

Even if the entire world is about to be destroyed and no matter how many lives are lost… Claus can ignore and give it up for the Siren’s sake and wellbeing.

Countless people already died defending the crazy attack of the Sea Monster, demon, and other sea races in two weeks, and yet, the leader that should be leading the predicament war had remained in the suburb villa.

Although Claus has been giving strategic orders despite not being in the frontline, it was still completely different if he was to stay on their side rather than remaining in the suburb villa in the Imperial City.

Fortunately, Rafael, who has been traveling to hunt someone, had come back as soon as Xaver informed him what had been going on in the Heinrich Family, acting more as the true Commander while his younger brother insists on guarding the Siren.

“… ah… such a headache…”

While Eugene is having trouble with his stubborn and heartless friend, an old voice has suddenly spoken behind them, followed by a child’s voice.

“Eugene, there is no need to worry about this stubborn punk anymore. You can go back and help out since you are also needed in the frontline. Tell my other foolish grandson that I’ll definitely send this love-sick fool.”

“Uncle witch, don’t worry. Although I understand how irresistible, amazing and wonderful my Father Snow is, I’ll talk to Daddy Claus about it. After all, we also needed to deal with those bastards.”

“Uncle Eugene, I’ll also convince Uncle Claus with Brother Flake. The powerful spells in my orb have been finally removed, so I will be able to use my full power and protect Uncle Snow and the baby.”

… The two little devils appeared…

Eugene lip twitches and turns around to give a respectful bow to the old man that has been handling the problematic situations the most before giving a small smile to the two adorable boys that were looking at him with innocent eyes, completely looking harmless.

And yet, it was these two children that had caused the greatest troubles and difficulties in the mermaid race plan.

One is the demon kid, who was able to duplicate in countless numbers, causing him to be able to freely move in the ocean, thus giving them important information regarding the war. At the same time, creating trouble from their enemies, even leading other sea demons and sea races that didn’t side with the mermaid races to fearlessly fight against deep in the ocean.

Suddenly, Eugene lip couldn’t help but lift up in amusement after remembering the miserable situation of the enemy male witch after being affected by the clear crystal that Flake had taken out.

Which is able to steal the energies of those mermaid tears that have turned into a single large orb and the main source of the power of the enemy male witch after losing the dragon orb that belongs to Xaver.

The furious scream has been music to Eugene’s ears.

At the same time, those mermaid tears have also given Eugene the sign that the Mermaid Princess has finally lost it.

After all, Eugene was able to tell that those mermaid tears were new, and taken from mermaids that had just died in a short time. There wasn’t even any doubt about it being the mermaid tears that the mermaid has definitely stored after one of their race has died a natural death in the past.

As for the other Little Devil, Eugene finally understood how destructive and violent a dragon can be after Xaver had cruelly dealt with the countless people that the crazy Mermaid Princess had secretly sent over in order to kill the Siren a week after the war had started.

The baby dragon acted as another protector and guardian of the Siren instead of helping his father Rafael in the war, which was definitely effective when dealing with those Sea Monsters by using his presence.

At the same time, the countless deaths of the people being sent had also shown the overwhelming hatred and resentment the Mermaid Princess has toward the Siren, particularly when she didn’t stop after the countless failures.

It was already a clear fact that the mission to kill the Siren would fail no matter how much the Mermaid Princess insists.

Tsk…

This world has gone chaotic after the hidden sea races that had been remaining quiet for countless years in the past had started appearing and mingling with the people living on land.

… Sigh, there is definitely a reason why the Siren and Mermaid race has remained quiet and mysterious in the past.

Eugene could also understand why the Mermaid Princess wanted to deal with the Siren aside from her resentment. Everyone has finally learned the special identity of the Siren that has taken their boss’ heart.

It is also one of the main reasons why despite how almost all of the entire sea demon and sea race had started the war against them that some of the small organizations and the other families had been sent their people to guard the entire suburb villa.

The protector and guardian of the entire ocean, that title has great importance, even if they learned that the Siren has given up on it.

The effect of that title on the sea creatures is quite heavy, especially the influence that the Siren has that won’t easily disappear even after leaving the ocean.

After all, they clearly saw the awe, respect, and fear in their allied sea demon and race’s eyes when they informed them in great detail about the only Siren alive that has been able to completely control and restrain the entire races of the sea from causing great trouble for countless years.

Eugene can only sigh at his friend’s powerful lover that has basically ruled over the entire ocean. Yes, he definitely labels the Siren as the ruler despite how they explain that he was the protector and guardian.

After all, the sea creatures, especially the mermaid race, have waited for the Siren to disappear before making their move. Although their plan to kill the Siren failed, it doesn’t change the fact that the Siren has been the firm wall that has been protecting the peace between the creatures inland and the ocean.

Just look at what occurred as soon as the supposed protector disappeared.

The mermaid races along with the sea creatures have started a war with the other races living on land.

“Then grandfather, I’ll be going.”

While Eugene’s mind recalls what has been happening and the cause of it, he respectfully bow to Claus’ grandfather, who was also his grandfather despite having no blood ties. After all, he had grown up alongside Claus at a young age, so it wasn’t surprising how he called the old man a grandfather.

“Kiddo’s I’m sure that I’ll see the two of you soon in the front line.”

Seeing the demon dolphin appearing in the suburb villa when he had been helping out in the war when it started, Eugene understood that the Siren is about to awaken after staying with the unborn Siren for countless days.

… Hmmm… somehow, I got the feeling that the war won’t last in a long time as soon as the Siren appears…

While feeling excited, Eugene has quickly left the suburb in the Imperial City, and after five hours, the stubborn man that had insisted on staying in the villa to protect his precious lover has walked out and drove toward where the war is.

“… Ah, I really admire Daddy Claus’ dedication to Father Snow but we really need him in the frontline this time, the crazy mermaid princess is getting stronger.”

The Sea Monsters have been increasing…

I can’t always use the karma points to create those countless clones in order to cause trouble in the mermaid princess way that has become completely mad after getting in her way.

Standing in the front gate, Flake watched as the car his Daddy Claus had driven off disappeared in the distance.

“Father~ Flake completed your order!”

A few seconds later, Flake showed a bright smile when a familiar sleepy voice has once more spoken in his mind, which occurred last night and was the entire reason why he appeared in the suburb villa after having fun playing with the mermaid race.

‘… mnm… good job… I’ll go back to… sleep…’

“Don’t worry Father, I’ll take care of everything while you are gone.”

‘… mm… I.. believe in you…”

When the sleepy voice had finally disappeared, Flake’s innocent eyes darkened when he thought of the fools that belong to their side, selfishly causing trouble in the dark despite knowing how dangerous their situation is.

After all, the Sea Monsters are no joke, especially when Flake perceives that the Mermaid Princess didn’t care about creating chaos and destruction as long as she got what she wanted.

“Well, just as what Father Snow will always do, I just need to remove the traitors around~ Dian, we have work to do~”

Silently, a beautiful woman appeared a few steps away with a bloodthirsty smile on her face, while eight fiery red fox tails gently swayed behind her.

“This time I’ll be able to take you along since I will not be dealing with the people in the sea~ Are you happy?”

“Of course I am happy. After all, I’ll be able to play with my Adorable Young Master.”

“Hehehe, then let’s quickly go hunt some bastard down~”
