There weren’t many people on the deck; there was only his father and several experimenters involved in the core plan. They held lanterns at the bow, waiting for him in the night, as if preparing for some mysterious sacrificial ritual. And without a doubt, he was the unfortunate sacrifice.

After taking a deep breath, the young man walked in that direction. The hem of his white kimono swayed in the sea breeze, like the sail of a lonely boat in the waves. It felt like if he was not careful then it could be engulfed by the waves at any moment.

It seemed as though they were afraid he would struggle or resist. The subsequent actions were carried out so methodically and swiftly, as if exchanging a piece of cargo in the darkness. It wasn’t until he was half-dragged and thrown onto the lifeboat that he truly awakened from his trance.

Abandoned as bait, he was tied to a long line to catch the big fish they wanted. Yukimura gazed at the undulating sea, ruffled by the wind, and couldn’t help but force a bitter smile. His life and death meant nothing to anyone. Yukimura Chiba, this name had been destined from the very beginning to be synonymous with sacrificial offering. 8O9yM

The lifeboat drifted on the sea, pushed farther by the gradually growing waves. Soon, the ship’s lights disappeared behind him, leaving only scattered lights on the water’s surface. Beyond the reach of the lantern’s light, there was an endless expanse of vast sea, much like the night in Aokigahara forest ocean, shrouded in thick, tranquil darkness, evoking a desire to rush to death.

If only I had died back then, it would have been so much better…

The lifeboat carried him out to sea, and it made him vaguely recall the scene when he had entered that vast land of suicide. He lay on the thick fallen leaves, gazing at the distant sky, while the spirits of those buried there gathered around, whispering in his ears, and he listened to the sound of life slipping away. Yukimura closed his eyes, as if he were once again in that enormous graveyard.

He was not afraid of death, and even his heart looked forward to its arrival. For him, death was, at most, freedom and tranquillity. Since there was nothing to love in life for him, why continue to struggle in this world, which was more painful than hell itself?

“Why bother?”

The only concern he has was that committing suicide under pressure without honour would be regarded as a cowardly act. While alive he didn’t have any sense of value, and after death, he didn’t want to become an intolerable disgrace to his family. He wanted to avoid letting the name Yukimura Chiba become a ugly lasting mark.

“——Chiba! Play your flute; to have the mermen appear! The frequency of the flute’s sound can resonate with their sound wave frequency; hurry and play it! Play the song ‘Mayfly’!”

The father’s voice suddenly came through the ship’s pager, his sharp tone piercing through him like needles. He instinctively refused: “No!… No, I can’t play that song!” ldKeca

How could I? How could I in this situation…

That was his mother’s most favourite song, yet it was being used as a tool to lure mermen! Must even his mother’s spirit be tarnished for the sake of the military’s plans? Trembling all over, he clenched the flute hidden in his belt. As he listened to his father’s cold, emotionless words through the pager, a long-suppressed, immense anger erupted within him. Driven by it, he brought the flute to his lips and played a series of trembling high notes——

Funeral song.

This was almost the first time he had defied his father, but it felt so joyous. lJZSIv

Ignoring the commands coming from the pager, he closed his eyes and continued to play, as if venting his feelings, and also a funeral for his own life.

Such a sad song might scare away the mermen.

His fingers were trembling slightly in the wind, and the sound of the flute he played was intermittent and almost out of tune.

As the song came to an end, it felt as if his body had emptied, becoming a hollow shell. He took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and waited for his mode to gradually calm down. After a while, he opened his eyes, only to be immediately shocked, freezing in place—— y4TzAD

A pair of deep black sharp eyes were watching him closely.

The mermaid had silently appeared at some point, unnoticed.

Chrysanthemum Garden.

His sharp webbed claws scraped against the side of the boat, almost reaching his knees.

Yukimura snapped back to reality, shivering with fright, and hastily shrank back. However, the merman seemed even more timid than him, quickly retracting into the water, revealing only half of its face above the nose, peering at him from beneath the water’s surface. Yukimura nervously stared at this unexpected visitor, barely daring to breathe. His father’s orders echoed in his mind, intensifying his fear to its peak. He could only hope that the flute in his hands would transform into a samurai sword. Yet, having experienced the destructive power of merfolk, he knew that on this fragile little boat, any sudden movement could lead to a deadly attack from the merman, he would undoubtedly die. 5WdHkV

Yukimura Chiba forced himself to calm down and locked eyes with the merman. The other party’s dark eyes shone with curiosity and doubt, its webbed claws carefully pushing against the side of the boat, like a child experiencing something new for the first time. His nerves relaxed slightly as, at the same time, the merman slowly emerged from the water, its upper body leaning on the side of the boat, looking up at him. It possessed an upper body identical to a robust and healthy man, with a long, beautiful fishtail trailing behind. Swaying gently with the waves, it emitted a gorgeous purple glow.

He called him, “Asura”. Jeti9V

Why… would he call him that?

A voice murmured in his heart, as if possessed, and he involuntarily reached out to touch that stern face. Those eyes, as deep and dark as an ancient well, stared deeply into his, as if attempting to swallow his soul into them.

“Don’t let him escape! You know what to do; I don’t need to teach you.” The sudden warning from the intercom at his side abruptly interrupted his drifting thoughts, feeling like a hand tightening around his throat, making it hard for him to breathe.

Mating? Mating with a male mermaid as a man? How outrageous was that? However, that was his father’s command. 8QR5sH

Yukimura Chiba grabbed the pager and tossed it into the sea, as if throwing away his greatest fear. He hugged his knees tightly, afraid to look up at the merman, which might soon come to touch his body. Chills ran down his spine, yet his back was covered in sweat.

When the command was just an order, anger and humiliation filled his mind. Now, as he had to confront the imminent reality of it, his body was left with immense confusion. Even fear seemed to leave his body, and his whole body was as stiff as if cast in clay.

“Yu……ki……”

At that moment, the merman moved its lips, and a faint call unexpectedly entered Yukimura Chiba’s ears, leaving him stunned. What did he hear? Was the mermaid uttering the syllable “Yuki”? He gasped in astonishment, “You…” tFa1CB

The merman’s face drew closer, and his damp webbed claws touched his lapel.

Reflexively, Yukimura Chiba instinctively moved backward, lifting his arm to the merman’s chest to keep him from getting too close. However, he felt the flute, inserted diagonally into the seam of his clothes at the chest, being pulled out. He saw the merman grab the flute, ponder over it for a moment, and then, hesitantly, bring it to its lips. Revealing two sharp fangs, as if gripping a fish, it produced a strange sound like air escaping from a deflating balloon.

Then, perhaps embarrassed by its own clumsy playing, the merman emitted a series of unclear and low hums from its throat. He blinked his eyes, eyes shining with moonlight, and a hint of shyness unexpectedly appeared on his stern face.

A big child. A big boy with a mature appearance. J1P3IV

Such a realisation popped into his mind.

Yukimura Chiba was stunned for several seconds before coming to his senses. “No, that’s not how you play it.”

Driven by something unknown, he hesitantly spoke and reached out to hold the flute again. When his wrist lightly touched the merman’s damp skin, his heart seemed to stop, and his voice involuntarily softened, “I’ll play it for you.”

What are you doing, Yukimura Chiba? Playing the flute for a merman? This is just too strange! pJ4fga

Yes, it was indeed very strange. He silently questioned and answered himself, but his mood suddenly brightened, not because of fear or order, but because he wanted to do it.

In the merman’s expectant expression, he somewhat awkwardly took the flute back, even forgetting to wipe the mouth of the flute that got wet by the merman. Relying on instinct, he played the first note. Unlike playing the funeral song, he played softly and gently, as if the snowfall of early winter landed on the skin, and as if the merman’s moist breath gently stirred his hair.

——The First Snow.

Chiba, you are like the first snow of early winter, carefully descending upon this world… vJZGjP

The wind is too strong; be careful not to fall into that murky water, not to fly into that melting furnace. Don’t be like me.

Amidst the familiar sound of the flute, a soft voice murmured dreamily.

In a daze, he found himself back on the snow-covered streets of Kyoto. His mother’s deep red sleeves brushed past him, carrying the nostalgic scent he had cherished in his youth. Like a butterfly dancing in the snowy night, it fluttered further away in his line of sight, ultimately turning into a misty figure and blending into the mottled glow of lights.

Suddenly, everything before his eyes blurred. HdQAEC

I have disappointed you… Mother. I couldn’t uphold the surname you gave me. I fell into the dirtiest dust, got entangled in this war, and my hands are soiled. The name Yukimura Chiba, I am no longer worthy of it.

“Yu…ki…” The moist touch brushed against his cheek, abruptly pulling him out of the whirlpool of memories.

The merman’s webbed claw gently brushed against his cheek, unexpectedly wiping away the tears on the verge of spilling from his eyes. Those black eyes closely examined him, and in the soft light shimmering within them, it seemed as if they could penetrate the long-lasting haze. They crossed over the several years and reached the wounded depths of his heart.

This look, it’s so familiar. 7Xo Gy

Asura.

The moment this name appeared in the depths of his mind again, and as if in response, the merman opened his mouth and emitted a clear and complete low hum, “Yu…ki…”

This time, his heart swelled with an incredible sensation because he was absolutely certain that the merman knew his name and was calling out to him. Despite this, he hesitated, fearing that this was his fantasy, and asked, “Are you… calling my name?”

Asura blinked, seemingly agreeing. His damp webbed claw closed around the back of his neck, sending a chill through to his skin. Instinctively, he pulled his head back, but the other person’s arms blocked his way. Their faces were extremely close, Asura’s forehead pressed against his, and the moist strands of hair covered him like seaweed, dampening his clothes. The cool seawater roamed over his chest, akin to a gentle caress. Asura’s body carried a unique fragrance, indescribably pleasant. It was like tasting sake made from snow water and plums for the first time. Just by smelling it, he felt a bit intoxicated. jxpvkb

Strangely, at this moment, he didn’t feel fear or panic in his heart. Instead, there was a warm tenderness, and even a hint of anticipation. Anticipation for what? Mating with a merman?

His father must be pleased with this outcome because he was originally sent as an offering to the merpeople, and now he found himself looking forward to the fate of the sacrificial offering.

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

This thought suddenly filled him with shame. He turned his face away, avoiding Asura’s gaze, but felt the merman’s moist lips lightly brush against his cheek, as if wanting a kiss.

His heartbeat suddenly stopped, then raced at an unprecedented frequency. He almost jumped out of the boat but felt his entire body go weak, as if he was drunk. 3XAofh

The webbed claw resting on the back of his neck slid slowly down his back, pressing him into a firm embrace. The scent of sin immediately enveloped him, as if it wanted to drown him.

Yukimura Chiba had barely taken a breath when his body was pressed down by Asura, who leaned over him.

He powerlessly collapsed beneath the merman, feeling a frantic sense of helplessness. Those deep black eyes stared at him without blinking, and the water’s reflection in his eyes, like an entire galaxy hidden within. The twinkling stars were discernible affection, and if you looked deeper, it revealed strong love and desire so strong that it could swallow him up at any moment.

However, Asura showed no signs of impatience; he even appeared more shy than him. Through their clothes, he could feel the merman’s webbed claws trembling slightly, delicately caressing his tense back, as if attempting to help him relax and accept him. The sturdy fishtail beneath him had curled entirely onto the boat, swaying gently. The fish scales lightly rubbed against the exposed skin between the hem of his kimono, arousing a shiver-inducing itchy sensation. jldXLm

Yukimura Chiba’s body began to feel a subtle warmth, the heat shamefully creeping up from between his legs, climbing up to his ears, turning his face into an attractive flush.

When Asura’s lips firmly pressed against to kiss him softly, he couldn’t help but shiver. It wasn’t out of fear or humiliation, but a different kind of sensation he had never experienced before.

Surprisingly, this kiss was sweet and refreshing.

Without any intention of violating him, Asura kissed so delicately, as if savouring a sip of wine. His pointed fangs grazed against his lips, gently sucking. Both of them were experiencing their first kiss, yet it felt like a reunion of long-lost lovers. The gentle touch was so heart-stirring that he even had the urge to shed tears. clGdUk

The lost other half of the soul in this life.

This sentence echoed in the depths of his mind. He murmured in his heart, Is it you, Asura? Is our connection fated?

As if sensing his inner thoughts, Asura intensified the light kiss. His fangs touched the corner of his lips, causing a slight tingling sensation. Instinctively, he reached out and embraced the other person’s neck, his ten fingers embedded in the thick, moist hair, much like a drowning person grabbing onto water plants floating on the surface.

His heart was pounding intensely, his nerves trembling with each touch from Asura, yet he couldn’t bring himself to shout stop. FkGcV0

The caresses with the webbed claws had become somewhat forceful, sliding down his waistline, lingering at the opening of the hakama beneath the kimono. Hesitating for a moment, he clumsily and impatiently tore open his robes, slipping between his legs. The manhood was gently held in the palm of his webbed claw.

His sensitive abdomen tensed, and he bit his lip, suppressing a moan.

Asura’s breath trembled as if suddenly stimulated. The fishtail squeezed between his knees, and the movement caused the lower hem of the kimono to fall open, revealing the slender calves of the young man, which were dazzling white in the night light.

The firm sensation reached his tailbone through the thin fabric of the hakama, causing Yukimura Chiba to feel a similar response in his own same part. Unable to comprehend how he could feel desire for a male of a different species he had just met for the first time, even though he felt ashamed, he couldn’t deny the evidence beneath him. It seemed that such touches were not unfamiliar to him, and they were something he longed for, like a dying person longing for a new life. wkgQa

Yukimura Chiba took a deep breath of his rich scent, closed his eyes, and, as Asura lowered his head to suck his Adam’s Apple, obediently tilted his neck upward.

The hem of the kimono was lifted above the thighs, and the merman’s webbed claws caressed up his thighs inch by inch. The moist water droplets were evaporated by his heated skin, blending with the sweat, becoming thick and intense, much like his current state of mind.

Everything was in chaos.

“Yu…ki…” Asura’s breathy call echoed in his ears. Yukimura Chiba opened his misty eyes, gazing at this most unfamiliar yet most familiar existence. Those black eyes were burning red with desire, shining brightly, just like the legendary Asura. Ht4ZAC

The hakama pants were torn apart, and he was closely pressed against the fishtail. As Asura straightened his waist, the raised scales grazed the delicate inner side of his lifted leg, causing a numbness sensation like an electric current. His legs were forcefully spread apart, and he instinctively struggled. However, Asura firmly held onto his waist. The fishtail lifted his entire body, followed by the sudden sensation of a thick and wet foreign object invading.

It was not at all painful, and there was even an indescribable tingling sensation permeating in. However, it was as if the chaotic world had been split open by an ancient god, and he struggled to evade the sweet rain like a newborn baby, yet there was nowhere to escape.

“Ah… ha…” Yukimura Chiba couldn’t help but cry out, tightly hugging Asura’s neck. He responded with raindrop-like kisses that fell on his neck and collarbone, accompanying the real rain from above, gradually intensifying. The kimono was soaked, torn off by his webbed claws, revealing slender shoulders and a narrow waistline. Leaving only a single belt entangled around him.

Unable to wait for the clothes to be stripped off, the invasion below suddenly intensified. Asura, like a big child, entered and exited him without any sense of restraint. Yukimura Chiba felt his body jolting and swaying with the movement of his fishtail. Inch by inch, he was grounded, every nerve and cell tingling with a fine and dense pleasure. He trembled uncontrollably, like a small boat in the waves, relying on the rock-like chest in front of him to avoid falling over. aC2Gz0

Asura held him tightly, as if wanting to rub him into his body. Through the chest, he heard Asura’s heartbeat and breath, resembling the sea in a storm, ready to engulf him. In a trance, he saw burning flames and a figure falling into the sea, melting memories into a scar etched in his mind. Yet, the emotions buried beneath, once dusty and forgotten, surged vividly in this moment.

He embraced Asura’s back tightly, as if embracing the other half of his soul that he had lost. The surroundings became unclear, and all distractions seemed to vanish at this moment. The entire world was reduced to the existence of only him and Asura.

Hatred is destruction, love is nirvana. When bliss accompanies a profound sense of sorrow and joy, Yukimura Chiba vaguely felt that his new life has arrived.

Asura was his new life—the love demon born from the ashes of suffering. 80UYlC
