Ocean

Two days later, the interrogation was cleared.

"I didn't think I was lying... but I didn't know much."

The officer gave me a document with a record of the interrogation.

This suddenly reminds me of Saintess. She took the report I gave her, and she wanted to know what was going on.

I took the document and read it all the time.

Mermaid's name is Kurtak and is said to be a low-ranking soldier. His mission is to kill the human that appears on the coast with a sculpture ship. Or kidnapping. As expected, the reason was because I was the one who caught the seaman.

The name of the sea cuckoo is called Triton, and this Kurtak bastard seems to know this just as much as a monster. A monster that doesn't even know if it exists. I don't know why it came out of nowhere, and other mermaids are trying to analyze the situation.

But I have a question.

I knew I killed that fearsome Triton myself, but why did you send those bastards and get wiped out? Mermaids... yes. It must have been tough because it was underwater. I was so strong that I killed him right away.

Anyway, it doesn't help.

I'm sure you know how powerful that monster is as much as those who live in the sea, and it's only the head of a crustacean who thinks he can do it with only sixteen mermaids.

What the hell?

Of course, it also had a reason.

I was just taking orders.

"That's fucking funny."

Not just a mermaid warrior, just because a common mermaid soldier was ordered to do this kind of suicide? Is the topcoat thorough?

Let's just say I did.

Then he purposely exterminated sixteen mermaids. What's the point of this? It's hard to make sense of it. It is even more inconclusive if there is a special situation in which this monster, Triton, appears.

"I have to go again."

I found the interrogation room again that way.

"Mermaid. I'm here."

"..."

Our mermaid friend, who met again, was almost completely absent from the scales of the lower half. He was more numerous than anything else, and his eyes were dead. He was subjected to harsh torture.

I think I've broken my heart, and I'm sure it'll be easy.

I immediately pulled him out of the cistern and asked.

"I have a question for you. So, patterned buns. That seren ordered you to be sent, right?"

According to the description, Sairen is the class that dominates the mermaids. First of all, he is a prophet and also a martyr of the faith of the sea. That's what they call the ruling class, so that seren is the source of the mermaid.

You think he's stupid?

"... yes."

Kurtak nods hard.

"Listen carefully. You see how I fight your fucking sons of bitches? You just changed everything in an instant."

"...!"

A moment of horror strikes me in both eyes.

"That's what happened when I killed that Triton. But that's how much I am. How many of you bastards could have caught me? No matter how much you fight in the sea. Does this make sense?"

"That... that..."

"Why do you think that would have happened?"

Why did you hit that cheeky son of a bitch?

He sent sixteen general soldiers against the knight who captured and killed the ogre. It's nothing but a painting that pushes me to death.

"Well, I... I... I don't know... why I was ordered to do this... but I don't know anything... just to kill a human..."

He replied.

"Did you really think it would work?"

"I'm good..."

Are you here because you just told me to kill a human being?

I am also a pirate support group.

"No, you won't. Of course you think so. I have no choice but to think that this is unconditional. You came here knowing you'd be doomed."

"Well, that means..."

He shakes his head to see if it's chaotic.

"That's right, motherfucker. Sairen, that guy sent me food with the stripes. He asked me to kill him. It was purged of stripes when I saw it."

"Su, purge...?"

"Think sensibly. What did you do wrong?"

"So... it's... it's not like we're doing anything wrong..."

Why did he have to let the mermaids die?

Is this something like that? Propaganda. Are you going to write something like that? To propagate that humans are killing all the mermaids in the vicinity of Triton?

It makes sense.

So let's gather the power of mermaids together, and we'll be able to talk like this. It will also boil hostility towards humans.

"You are abandoned. I just wasted my life trying to get here."

"No way!!! Sairen did that to us...!"

The frightened Kurtak screams.

I believe in Siren quite a bit, but this is the only reason.

"That can't be right, motherfucker. Then why are you here?"

"...!"

I came close and grabbed his waterrake ear.

"Tell me what you know."

"..."

If you don't listen to these words with your heart broken by torture, it will be confusing and painful. It will be almost ruined.

I did my own induction, but my performance was very good.

"What damage would it take to hide in an abandoned yard? I will put my name on it and ensure its survival. Tell me what you know. Something suspicious. I hear rumors. Tell me everything."

"..."

A moment of silence passed.

"That's..."

He opens his mouth.

"I have something to say... haha..."

Conduct listening.

"I've seen other mermaids... humankind the so-called pirates... let me serve our gods... many times... I've asked her... and she told me that this was what she did..."

The Mermaid ruler supports the pirates.

"I was so proud to say that one day we would reunite humans and make even the earth ours..."

The fish cubs are so big.

If St. Verdot, the legendary fisherman and invited Pope of the Catholic Church, sees this sighting, it is clear that he will immediately blow his anger and throw a killing net and slaughter the mermaids.

"Yeah? But what does that have to do with this?"

"That's..."

I think we have a story to tell.

"There will be many of them in the human village..."

"What!!! What the fuck are you talking about!!!"

Motherfucker!!

"Hiiyap!!"

"What are you talking about!!"

Surprised, I immediately scream, grabbing his shoulder and clapping.

"Well, I mean...! Even in this land of humans... the congregation of our goddess... I heard that!!!"

"Hugh!!"

Rumor has it that Mermaid Faith is spreading in human land!

"Is this real?!!!"

Without our knowledge, the burrows in the sea were decorating a kind of chest system beyond our imagination...! You were secretly spreading your faith on this land!!!

"Maybe it's why Triton showed up... more, no more... Argh, argh...!"

Kurtak, who threw up the information, was flustered.

Yeah, it's not a reliable story yet, but it's worth thinking about. Why, when Triton destroyed the town, the humans didn't go crazy. I spit out a terrible sea prophecy.

It's awesome if it has something to do with that.

I will cut off the necks of the pagans to please Cadia.

"Great. It's been a big help, my friend."

"Argh..."

I stroked him in the head.

"Now tell me about the faith."

*

Shamaeleena, goddess of the sea.

It is said that Mermaids are one of the gods they believe in.

The sea is as vast as many gods, but it is the goddess of this sea that is the greatest of the gods that mermaids now believe in.

This goddess, Shamaelena, is sometimes called the first mother, and it seems that mermaids have done their own epiphany. It means "God of creation."

Such a god who must be the most prestigious.

The doctrine is that Kurtak is not a theologian, so he doesn't know it, but in summary, as any religion does, the congregations who believe in this goddess will go to paradise called the sea of postmortem abundance.

There are many complex ways to get there, but here is one of the most representative.

Protect this beautiful, vast ocean.

Then we can go to the sea of abundance.

- Protect the sea.

That's a good thing.

Realistically, it's a good thing.

We have to protect this beautiful ocean for the environment, to protect our descendants from pollution. Everyone thinks so.

But, as always, the doctrine of religion is not intuitive, it is vague, and so is this. It is impossible to know exactly what the action is to protect the sea.

What are you defending, what are you destroying?

I don't think it's destructive to eat fish that live in the sea. And as always, the problem arises from this ambiguous doctrine.

First of all, the rulers of the mermaids, Sairen, are also the martyrs or priests of that religion. What it means is simple. It means that they have the right and authority and authority to interpret this doctrine.

I say vague things.

I can interpret it like a dick.

That's why the Sairens command mermaids to support human pirates and help harm other humans. It is a very voluntary interpretation of the concept of protecting the sea by the Serens.

"Killing the existence of the earth that defiles the sea is the defense of the sea. Support the human pirates to go to the sea of abundance.

From a human standpoint, there's no such thing as a fucking religion.

I believe in these mermaids and fight with humans.

Judging by this as the Paladin of the Bronze Society, these are undoubtedly evil spirits and pagans who must be subjugated.

But in fact, from my contemporary point of view, it's not a big mistake. Humans and mermaids are enemies. This kind of religious doctrine is necessary to create warriors who are not afraid to kill their enemies. I understand where this fucking doctrine came from.

It is like recommending that the Bronze and Light Crucifixion Society kill demons. Humans are demons only from a mermaid's point of view.

Anyway.

Rumor has it that the faith of the sea is spreading secretly on land. The source is Kurtak. I thought this was worth a look, but I found a pier town a little far from the seabed.

"Fuck."

Coming out of dreamlike attractions and recreational areas was a city of reality stained with labour.

In a pier full of criminals and pirated vessels, it was the filthy sea that was seen among them.

Speaking of which, the air was a little cocky. It's better than Leitas, but it's a pretty heavy neighborhood.

From fish unloading to trade.

The bare unloaders are moving restlessly through a barrel full of fish, and merchants and scoundrels are making busy noises. The sailors who had caught the fish would have to sell it, and the distributors who had moved their luggage somewhere would have to unload them quickly.

There were also as many people as there were logistics coming and going.

But all the faces looked like serial killers and torturers, and to be honest, no one would be surprised if the sailors naturally switched to a murderous intensity the moment they got off the ship.

Even the purest children who believe the world is beautiful will take a piss and beg for their lives.

Aren't these bastards real pirates in disguise?

"..."

Besides the human pirates, there are also sailors who serve the goddess of the sea without knowing. But they seem to have a distorted belief.

To pray for safety at sea, I believed in the god.

Whatever happens, if a human believes in the goddess of the sea, he can get mermaids' favours, and if he gets mermaids' favours, he can hope for his own safety. But it means that it's rich in the possibility of being a sea spy for mermaids after all.

It seems clear that the mermaids are up to something, so let's investigate for a second.
