Chapter 959: Cleansing



The Tide Empire's group couldn't just leave right away since that would be too discourteous. The only thing that they could do was wait for a bit before leaving.

At the same time, it wasn't as if they could just remain silent while waiting to leave, so they discussed a few simple matters with the Merman King.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Since the Tide Empire was close to the Merman Empire, there were some things that they had to discuss with each other in terms of the cooperation between them. There were some simple matters such as trade routes that had to be discussed, though it wasn't necessary for the rulers to discuss it in person like this.

Most of these matters would usually be discussed in letters sent between the two empires.

It was just that there was nothing else that the Tide Empire group could discuss with the Merman Empire group during this time. They had already experienced the feeling of sticking a hot face into a cold butt, so it was awkward for them to say anything else.

They could only keep the topic on official matters that both sides could talk about.

Once it was over, they didn't hesitate to leave, though they did make sure to say their farewells properly to the Merman Empire group.

Once the Tide Empire group was back on their ship and sailing back to the mainland, the Tide Emperor's face immediately fell. He had a very ugly look on his face as he remembered everything that had happened in the meeting on Peace Island.

Though he was filled with anger, there wasn't a place that he could vent this anger on.

Or at least there wasn't until an idiot suddenly came forward as a sacrifice.

"Royal father, what should we do about the matter of the engagement?" The crown prince said in an anxious voice.

He had been filled with worry since the meeting ended because the engagement that he had been looking forward to was now completely off the table. With the way that things looked, it seemed like he wouldn't have a chance to bring it up.

So the only thing that he could do was raise this matter to the Tide Emperor in hopes that he would help with his prestige.

It was just that even the Tide Emperor couldn't do anything at this moment and bringing it up would just make him angrier since he would remember everything that happened.

After all, those illegitimate children spreading through their empire was actually helping them since the mermaid bloodline was being spread across the country.

But thinking of the situation caused by Viper, they knew that this was a smart move.

It really was surprising that nothing like this had happened before with how lax their control

of these illegitimate children was, which sent a chill down their spines.

After this thought passed through their minds, the ministers all lowered their heads and said, "Yes, your majesty. We will not make a mistake and perform this task perfectly."

The Tide Emperor gave a nod before waving his hand as if he was dismissing them.

...

"Did you see the look on their faces? It looked like they swallowed a bunch of shit!" The Merman King laughed as he said this.

Ariel nodded in agreement before saying, "Right, right, did you also see that crown prince? He really looked like an idiot."

"Humph, how could someone like that be worthy of my daughter?" The Merman King said in

a fierce voice.

Seeing them act this way, there was a bitter smile that appeared on my face.

They were completely different from the serious mermaids that had met with the Tide Emperor earlier.

But I didn't dislike this side of them.

Compared to those nobles that were stuck up and arrogant, knowing that they could act like this was definitely better than having to deal with those kinds of nobles.
