Warning:- Super possessive Agares and you might wanna murder him(well I did), and abduction and might be a bit disturbing, the choosing mates part, I think.

Agares held me tightly around the waist. As if sensing his heightened emotions, a certain kind of devilfish displayed its blue flickering light spots all over its body, resembling signal lights. I noticed the surrounding merfolk ceased their leaps and cast their gazes upon us. In the cover of night, their eyes flickered with a light. Their envy, desire, and excitement were easily discernible – to put it mildly, it was as if a large group of bachelors, unable to find spouses, gazed upon a happily married individual with expressions of longing.

I felt a bit embarrassed, but Agares seemed to thoroughly enjoy this sensation of being envied. He lifted me higher, as if wanting all his subjects to see me clearly. Then, he raised his head and kissed my heart, delicately tracing his tongue over my collarbone, chest, and downward to my abdomen. It was as though he were a male lion cleaning the body of a cub, or engaged in some sacred and primitive ritual.

Wait——ritual? Damn it! Wouldn’t there be another “marking” ceremony? To prove to his subjects that I belong to him? 73pjCy

“Agares?” I was suddenly a little panicked, quickly covering with the devilfish at my waist. But it seemed he didn’t have that intention. His lips and tongue brushed past my vital parts, lingering on my thigh. Out of nowhere, he opened his mouth and bit me. I let out a yelp and shivered, seeing a distinct bite mark left where he had “attacked” me. A few drops of blood welled up from the puncture, a deep purple that stood out starkly against my somewhat pale skin. My heart couldn’t help but race, as the colour of my blood at this moment signified that the transformation had begun. Agares was using this to announce to his subjects that I belonged to him.

As if he had read my thoughts, Agares lifted his head slightly and gazed at me with a smile. He grinned, extending his tongue to lick my blood. His eyes gleamed with a mesmerising intensity, his smile both sinister and ambiguous, as if a vampire was giving me the first embrace.

I swear, that expression combined with his handsome features was truly bewitching. I almost felt overwhelmed by the urge. I quickly pressed my lower body against his chest, clinging to his neck like a little monkey, to prevent the other merfolk from noticing my bodily reaction.

But I was certain, Agares must have felt it (my thing was pressing against the bottom of his chin, and if it were possible, I really wanted him to suck it….. Pei, pei, nasty Desharow!). His webbed claw resting on my buttocks suddenly tightened, causing the devilfish to twitch in fright.

Damn it, maybe my estrus was approaching. I’ve become so sensitive all of a sudden. Blushing, I thought to myself, stealing glances around with a guilty conscience. The bachelors around us all had eager and restless expressions, looking at us with anticipation. Some were even impatiently emitting short, sharp calls.

Agares then calmly lowered me down, turning his back to the large glowing sphere. He raised his arms, and in an instant, the wisps of light that floated around the outer surface of the sphere converged between his webbed claws. The shell of the sphere gradually shifted from fluorescent blue to translucent, revealing faint figures within. Astonished, I fixed my gaze on the sphere, watching as it transformed from a translucent membrane into nothingness. Suddenly, I realised that within the stone pool were the naval personnel captured from the warship. Stripped of their clothing, their bodies were entwined by substances resembling seaweed, kneeling in a daze with their backs to the stone pool, their once proud bodies now exposed and vulnerable. It was as if they were slaves awaiting selection in an ancient market, devoid of dignity, and sadly, their fate had indeed become just that.

As I caught sight of a few familiar faces, I realised they were the new recruits who had enlisted alongside me—Team D or maybe Team E. Just like the fate of my own Team A, B or C, they were destined to become sacrificed by becoming cannon fodders.

The scene before me hit me like a heavy hammer, shattering the fleeting sense of happiness that had lifted me up as if I were a bubble floating in the sky. It was as if I had returned to reality from heaven suddenly, my heart sinking heavily into a thorny abyss. I1E3mU

Damn it!

I involuntarily took a step back, my mood was extremely complicated.

Despite my mental preparations, I still felt a heavy sense of guilt, like a thorny thicket that left me struggling to catch my breath and uncomfortably weighed me down.

My mind was in turmoil, as if two little figures were battling within my skull—one being reason and the other emotion. Their voices and attitudes were indistinguishable to me. From the standpoint of someone who is in love with a merman, I couldn’t condemn the actions of the merfolk. However, for these naval personnel who had initially joined the fleet with ambitions and dreams like mine, they were undoubtedly in a miserable and a pitiful state. Yet, I felt utterly powerless, no room to advance or to retreat.

Perhaps they thought they were about to be torn apart and devoured, even though that wasn’t the case. But their reaction to being chosen as the merfolk’s spouse might not be any better. At least when I was raped by Agares at the beginning, I would rather be killed by him.

Not every human had the intricate connection that Agares and I shared. Not every human would fall in love with merfolk on a spiritual level, rather than merely succumbing to sensory allure. Merfolk were an irresistible poison, yet not all humans have the antibodies. The tragedy of Yukimura and Asura in the original timeline further validated this truth. 76u5vL

My fists clenched into my palms, my breathing became rapid. Instinctively, I wanted to say something to dissuade Agares, but as I opened my mouth, no words came out.

However, at the next moment, following Agares’ order, hundreds of blue-tailed mermaids swam to the naval officers in the stone pool and surrounded them.

However, these merfolk, below the rank of the leaders, exhibited none of the grace of nobility. Like a pack of hungry wolves, they sniffed the scents emanating from the bound male bodies. Some even forcefully pinned down their chosen mates in the stone pool, their actions urgent and hands roaming eagerly.

The merpeople in rut undoubtedly frightened the recruits. In an instant, screams for help in the stone pool resounded through the cave. AV5LuC

Some were left dazed, allowing the merfolk to kiss, smell, and choose them without resistance. Others who were more agile struggled to climb out of the stone pool, attempting to flee from within its confines. However, they were immediately pursued and caught by eager suitors who pinned them down and explored their bodies. The entire stone pool seemed to host a primaeval hunting game of ancient ceremonies, causing the uninvolved merfolk in the vicinity to cheer loudly. Clearly, they were greatly excited by the scene.

The terrified screams seemed to transform into countless steel needles, pricking at my nerves and sending waves of intense pain through my brain. Yet, I stood there frozen, witnessing the chaotic scene before me, not knowing how to deal with it all.

Suddenly, amidst the chaos, I noticed a particularly unlucky guy. Perhaps his scent was exceptionally good, as he was surrounded by dozens of merfolk, like a delectable piece of meat pursued by a pack of sharks. One merman, with hair as red as flames, was the first to embrace him tightly, burying his nose into the boy’s neck. The young man struggled desperately in his grasp, and in the midst of their struggle, his face came into my line of sight.

In an instant, my breath caught, and my nerves seemed to pluck like strings, producing a chaotic hum within my mind. I awakened from my numb state. My body reacted faster than my brain, and I rushed toward that direction, a loud roar erupting from my throat: “Davis! You all fuck off! Don’t touch him!” 9M6WHL

The merfolk in the stone pool, caught up in their excitement, seemed oblivious to my identity. They rushed towards me one after another, but as I fell into the many evil clutches, I heard Agares’ sharp cry from behind me, “Desharow!”

In an instant, silence descended upon the surroundings. The merfolk immediately created a gap for me, but before I could get up, a webbed claw suddenly gripped my ankle, pulling me out of the stone pool and into a tight embrace. Agares’ low growl filled my ears, “Do you know how dangerous it is for you to enter the altar alone? A single lust-driven blue-blood can kill a hundred humans. Each one is a fierce and skilled warrior! When they lose control, they won’t distinguish that you belong to me!”

“That’s Davis!” I struggled against his grip on my arm, watching in despair as he shouted and struggled beneath the red-haired merman. My fists clenched tightly. Looking at Agares, I pleaded, “Please, Agares, save him——” I pointed toward Davis, it felt like a knife was twisting in my heart. “I don’t expect your subjects to spare these unfortunate sacrifices, but I beg you to spare him. You’ve seen him! He was the one who opened the door for you in the deep-sea laboratory…”

To a certain extent, Davis helped him get me, even though his consciousness wasn’t clear at the time. Perhaps this could be a reason for Agares to show some leniency. VayGUd

Even though Davis doesn’t recognize me now, in my heart, he will always be my dear friend, my respected senior. I can’t allow the tragic experience that happened to him to happen again, especially when I’m witnessing it right before my eyes.

Damn it, if I don’t do something to protect him, am I still Desharow? Where is my humanity? Where is my conscience? Witnessing all of this, I can’t even utter a single word of protest. What’s happened to me? Have I lost myself completely after falling in love with Agares?

I’m tormenting my heart with inner questions of anguish.

Agares furrowed his brow, looking in that direction, appearing somewhat shaken. 5cVDAL

I hugged his neck. “Please, Agares? I know you can stop this, can’t you?” I begged him hopefully.

Agares glanced back at me as if considering, then squinted his eyes in the direction of Davis. However, he didn’t immediately intervene to stop the red-haired merman from dragging him into the water. He indifferently spat a few syllables, “Who is he to you?”

I was taken aback for a moment, but quickly realised: My emotional outburst had aroused Agares’s jealousy again. He had become possessive to the point where any emotions other than those for him were not allowed. I shook my head, explaining incoherently, “No, no, no! He’s just my friend, a classmate! Don’t misunderstand, Agares! I don’t have any special feelings for him! I swear to God!”

“So, you’re willing to risk being eaten by the blue-bloods to save him?” Agares leaned closer to my ear, whispering, “You seem quite close?” YQ2Wwg

His webbed claw held my back, his palms ice-cold, and a coldness seemed to seep into my bones. His tone was unusually gentle, but his words sent a shiver down my entire body, “I’m sorry, Desharow, I can’t allow even the slightest possibility of losing you to reappear again.”

After saying that, he raised his webbed claw. The red-haired merman cheered as if granted permission, embracing Davis and leaping into the water. In an instant, they disappeared into the darkness of a cave, leaving only Davis’ desperate, hoarse cry behind.

“You could have stopped it…” Davis lying on the bed, struggling for breath, kept flashing before my eyes. Clenching my fists tightly, I turned back to Agares, staring at him in disbelief.

His gaze held a hint of shallow remorse, but when you peeled it off, the depths of his eyes were like a terrifying abyss, ready to swallow me whole, submerge me in his unfathomable ocean. His webbed claw caressed my cheek, his manner resembling that of a father who had made the right decision, confronting his mischievous son. 4SExwg

Correct? I was completely enraged.

I pounded his arms uncontrollably in a rage, pushed against his chest with all my might, and kicked at his fishtail, but every move was suppressed by his unyielding embrace. The anger built up in my chest like an explosion, but I felt choked, unable to utter a single word. In the end, I suppressed my trembling breath, yielded to his strength, and through gritted teeth, I said word by word, “Let go of me, Agares… I’m not angry anymore.”

“Desharow…” Agares slightly hesitantly loosening his arms. Seizing the opportunity, I didn’t hesitate to break free from his embrace, taking a few steps back and looking at him with a cold gaze.

“King…” et0U7j

A faint cry suddenly came from behind, and the familiar voice made me startled. I turned my head immediately, widening my eyes in surprise.

——My “grandfather”, Levjet, was swimming over from the direction of the dark river, holding a blond teenager in his arms, followed closely by Asura and a group of blue-tails.

“Grandpa!” I yelled subconsciously. Levjet heard my call and looked at me. His face was much less wrinkled than when he was a human. He looked like a handsome man in his thirties. The way he looked at me was as if I were still a child, cosy, as if enveloping me in sunlight.

“Oh, my little Desharow.” He moved his lips slightly and affectionately called my name, which made my nose sore. Almost as if I were a child again, I had the urge to immediately throw myself into his arms and let him ruffle my hair. fIocQx

However, Agares dragged me to his side, glanced at me, his face was frosty, “Stay away from him.”

I raised my arm, shaking off his webbed claw, and raised the corner of my mouth in a smile. “I know, no need for your reminder. But even if I stay far away from him, you’ll still choose to eliminate him, won’t you? Because he’s someone I care about, so you want to take him away until there’s only you left in my eyes.”

“I will abide by the contract and not kill him…” Agares grinned, showing his white fangs, and said clearly in a low voice. Then he turned his head and let out a series of vibrating sound waves, “Za-sa-ti…where did you go?”

Levjet nodded apologetically and swam closer, lifting the blond teenager in his arms as if presenting an offering. I immediately noticed that the boy was around seventeen years old, very handsome with amber-like eyes half-open as if in a daze, not fully awake. I observed a healing scar on his forehead, apparently from a grazed bullet. UCY6ud

Wait, could he be the one Asura mentioned…

“This is your descendant, my King…” Levjet’s words immediately confirmed my guesses. I looked at Agares in astonishment, “Although you’re unaware of his existence, I can smell your scent on him…”

“Ridiculous! I haven’t even released my yoila, how could there be any descendants? I only have one descendant, and that’s Desharow.” Agares narrowed his eyes, a hint of killing intent gleaming within them. His webbed claw, however, lightly rested on my head, and I instinctively dodged away.

“Please believe me, you can personally verify it.” fcANFn

Levjet brought the blonde-haired youth closer to Agares, but Agares remained indifferent, standing there like an ice sculpture, his expression devoid of emotion as he surveyed the youth’s heart. Suddenly, I noticed a glimmer of surprise in his eyes. Just then, the youth murmured something in a dream, as if waking from a nightmare and seeking shelter. He unexpectedly reached out his arm and wrapped it around Agares’ neck. He blinked his eyes curiously, looking up at Agares with a gaze that resembled that of a devout believer looking at the God they saw for the first time.

Agares was visibly taken aback; he grabbed the youth’s arm, attempting to pull him away. However, the youth clung even tighter, burying his head in Agares’ neck (that’s my exclusive zone! I almost growled out, but I held back), took a deep sniff.

Agares seemed to have been angered by this, and he roughly pulled the youth away from himself. Levjet quickly caught the youth. I noticed that Agares’s webbed fingers had scratched the youth, leaving a bright red scratch mark on his fair arm. Yet, the youth appeared to be completely unfazed, his gaze intoxicated as it wandered over Agares. He murmured, “Ah, God, are you the Emperor of the sea? I’ve heard about your existence in the news, and I’ve always wanted to meet you. That’s why I worked hard to become a naval officer…”

My heart churned with a sour feeling. If Agares’ main reason for loving me was because I was his descendant, then this blonde descendant was much more competitive than me. He regarded Agares as a God from the start (Goodness! Joining the navy for just him), and no male being could resist such dangerous adoring feelings. Including myself. I remembered how my junior sister Eva adored my appearance, and I, too, had briefly deluded myself into thinking we could be the most suitable lovers due to that. There’s a common thread between men and merfolk in this shattered pride. 8u7E 1

“Maybe he’s genuine, why don’t you verify it? Smell him, lick him or something.” I crossed my arms and interjected in a low voice.

Agares lowered his head and stared at me for a few seconds. Then, he actually picked up that young man again, but his gaze remained fixed on my face, as if in a provoking manner, he sniffed at the young man’s neck. I pursed my lips, as if swallowing a big, sour strawberry, and in an instant, my heart felt sour to the core.

However, his expression suddenly changed. I swear that the astonishment wasn’t faked to provoke me. He was genuinely surprised, which immediately confirmed the most unsettling fact for me—— Agares had another descendant who even he wasn’t aware of, someone who deeply admired him.

The author has something to say: Don’t worry… Agares will never cheat 23333… yPiqMw
