The Handbook for Completing Demi-Human Girls

Chapter 155: Attendant Sea Beast

Previously, Fisher had even thought the position of that ruin was in Kadu. After all, the Witch Research Society was an organization that took Kadu as its base camp. But the result in the end was that this ruin was actually in the Northern Border. This gave Fisher quite a headache.

Fisher didn't know the Northern language. Especially since this place was still within the borders of the Sardin Woman's Country. That place's social customs and habits were 'women respected, men lowly'. Therefore, very rarely did foreign males go over there.

However, within the borders of the Sardin Woman's Country, there were indeed many uncanny works of nature that could be hailed as miracles. Of the three currently known highest peaks, two were within the borders of the Sardin Woman's Country. Inside it even further possessed countless snowy peaks; inside was an unknown space that humanity had rarely set foot in throughout thousands of years.

Fisher had previously heard news regarding Relics being excavated from inside. For ruins to exist there was also a matter within reason.

But what Demi-human Races were there, Fisher was still unclear. He was also exceedingly curious about the Demi-human Races there.

Having obtained the clue, Fisher planned to first press down the plan of heading to the ruin. After all, there was still a massive pile of matters to do in Nari right now. He'd wait until whenever he was finished being busy to find time to head out to sea and explore for a bit. Incidentally, he still had to save up some money for it to work; treating Jasmine to food was about to eat his family's savings into poverty.

Speaking of Kadu, Renee still had no way of being contacted up to right now. The lark inside the photograph had already disappeared for a very long time. He didn't know what place she went to. This kind of situation hadn't been encountered previously. Fisher could also only trust that nothing happened to her.

Holding the ruin's position Karolina entrusted Prince Lausanne to give him, Fisher then left the restaurant. He was currently walking toward his own Office.

He had agreed with Jasmine previously that she would stay in his Office in the afternoons during these few weeks. Isabel and Milika had already gone home on the second day of the conference. Because of the academic conference matter this week, Saint-Nazareth University was suspending all classes. Aside from students like Jasmine who had no other place to live at, the others had basically all gone back.

Moreover, Saint-Nazareth was currently still passing the Gothrin Festival. There were many entertainment things within the city; no matter how you looked at it, it was much better than staying inside the school.Waiting until Fisher returned to his own Office, that beautiful young girl was currently leaning against the desk, staring at a box on top of the desk to look. If it wasn't Jasmine, then who else could it be?

Owing to the reason of her figure, Jasmine always liked to wear some clothing somewhat similar to dresses, setting off her disposition to be both quiet and sweet. Especially when seeing her brightly blushing, beautiful face that always carried a smile, it could invariably cause the moods of other people to brighten up.

Waiting until Fisher pushed open the door, she was immediately given a fright, getting up from the desk and sweeping her long black hair behind her ear, wearing an embarrassed appearance.

"Professor Fisher..."

Fisher cast a glance at the box on the desk and asked,

"What is this?"

"I... I also don't know aw. It's something the teacher from the Academic Affairs Office brought over."

As she spoke and spoke, she gulped down a mouthful of saliva. It was only when Fisher approached towards that box that he sniffed a faint scent of cream. Opening it to look, it turned out to be a tiny little cake standing inside the box, further ornamented with a bright red cherry on top.

This was a small gift sent by the Academic Affairs Office.

He had to say, Saint-Nazareth University's treatment regarding teachers truly wasn't bad. For example, the theatrical play vouchers from before, this kind of small dessert occasionally delivered to the Office, and the absolute most important was still that extremely generous salary.

However, coming here to serve as a teacher still required a certain threshold.

How numerous were the Magicians outside? Yet Kaine only wished to employ members of the Nari Magic Association. You must know, the entire Nari's Magic Association members only amounted to three hundred or so people—then you'd know the gold content of this title. The average age of the members inside was thirty-six years old, and Fisher was further the youngest member inside.

This still had to benefit from him developing two originally created [Air] Prime Magics. One was precisely [Bee's Dance], and the other was [Weaver].

The application of this kind of combat magic like Bee's Dance wasn't broad, but Weaver was utilized in matters including construction, rescue, and public security owing to its characteristics of durability and extremely broad scope of application.

It was merely a pity that at the time, when Fisher wrote these two kinds of magic onto magic theses, he definitively wrote "No patent fees collected." Otherwise, he ought to be exceptionally rich right now.

Speaking of rich, Fisher reached his hand into his own embrace and placed a massive stack of Nario banknotes in front of Jasmine. Previously, she had entrusted him to aid her in reselling those gold and jewelry brought from the sea bottom. She had only roughly taken a few things and it was already fast approaching one hundred thousand Narios.

Gold products were still fine. From the Southern Continent's pioneering until today, quite a bit of gold had flowed from the Goblin's homeland to the various nations of the West Continent. Right now, the price of gold was already far inferior to how expensive it had been previously.

Of the treasures Jasmine took out, the most valuable was a black pearl the size of a palm. Just that item alone sold for seventy thousand.

"This is the money exchanged for the treasures you gave me previously. It's roughly already the closest to the highest price in Saint-Nazareth."

Jasmine didn't count the money. On the contrary, she strenuously shifted her gaze away from that piece of cake on the desk, seemingly contemplating something.

Contemplating for half the day, she abruptly thought of something. Reaching out, she pulled a single banknote on the desk. Holding that banknote with both hands toward Fisher, she requested softly with a blushing face,

"Professor Fisher, then can I use money to buy this piece of cake?"

Fisher blanked out for a moment, amused by her foolishly silly appearance. Shaking his head, he stated,

"100 Narios can order a luxurious cake the size of a face at the best cake shop in the city center. This piece of cake isn't worth that much... You keep it. I originally planned to give it to you to eat anyway."

Hearing it was saved for her to eat, Jasmine's eyes brightened slightly. With a slightly red face, she stored the money away properly.

She looked at Fisher rather gratefully, making him suspect whether she was going to pray towards him in the next second...

"Thank you for bestowing upon me food."

"...No matter. By the way, may I take a look at your tail? I have continuously been very interested in it before."

Jasmine's movement of having just prepared to eat the cake paused slightly. Turning her head, she saw Fisher having carried over a small vat of water long premeditated. Because researching her biological characteristics in a while required her to revert to her original appearance, he had prepared the water ahead of time.

The foolish Jasmine had been blinded by the cake. It was only right now, waiting until Fisher wanted to research her tail, that she felt conflicted.

But pausing for half the day, she still lacked any way to reject the food before her eyes. Moreover... moreover, Professor Fisher wouldn't do anything strange to her, right?

Thus, Jasmine nodded with a blushing face. Both hands made a bizarre prayer posture, because first of all, before eating meals, one absolutely must thank the origin of life, Ramastia. Subsequently, she was Unable to Wait to begin tasting the cake.

She tasted the sweet greasiness of the cream, and without realizing it, a thoroughly enjoyable expression was revealed on her face.

Waiting until her body slowly turned into a Whale-person's appearance, Fisher finally discovered that the teeth inside her oral cavity were pointy, possessing quite a bit of a tiger-tooth feeling.

Jasmine said this was still the outcome of her having retracted her teeth. If she needed to eat bones or other meats, she would need to expose all her teeth before it would be good for dining.

Ever since she arrived in human society, because the foods were all cooked, she no longer needed to use all her teeth to eat things. Therefore, she already hadn't extended her teeth for a very long time.

Fisher asked her to demonstrate for a bit. He discovered there actually wasn't any specific change; it was roughly just the length of the teeth becoming slightly longer, that was all. Just like slivers of slightly longer tiger teeth. Without any ferocious feeling, it contrary made Jasmine become a bit cuter, possessing an illusion of being like an angry kitten.

She sat in front of the sofa. The tail behind her was roughly two-thirds as long as the sofa. When standing ordinarily, that whale tail could drag on the Surface. In the sea, this was her primary organ utilized for locomotion, therefore it was exceptionally robust.

Fisher attempted to touch it for a bit, discovering the muscles of her fish tail were well-developed, and at the same time, the efficiency of application was also extremely high. Looking from its external shape, it wasn't bloated in the slightest; on the contrary, it exceptionally matched her beautiful outward appearance.

Fisher roughly imagined her appearance swimming freely at the bottom of the sea, and then felt that was precisely when she was at her most beautiful.

Sensing the tactile sensation of Fisher's fingers atop her own tail, Jasmine's ears fanned slightly. Baring a slightly red face, she turned her head back to cast a glance at the focused Fisher. Even the movement of chewing the cake became sluggish.

"By the way, I heard Reinar mention before that your Royal Family possesses a kind of thing called an [Attendant Sea Beast], is that right?"

Jasmine nodded upon hearing this. Biting the fork provided in the cake box, she recalled while speaking blurrily,

"Lord Ramastia said, we Whale-people are exceedingly special living beings. We will always be born carrying nature's [Blessing]..."

"Blessing?"

"Mn, the effects of Blessings are exceptionally numerous, which are very useful to our lives during normal times. This Blessing possesses diametrically opposing natures simultaneously. Just like me... I can bestow life force upon other people..."

As Jasmine spoke and spoke, she extended her hand. The water flow in her eyes seemed exactly as if it were activated, blossoming with pale-blue radiance. It was exactly as if some sort of invisible energy flowed out from her hands.

"But at the same time, I can also deprive other things of their life force..."

After this sentence passed, her gaze began turning from blue to black. Her expression also gradually became dangerous. The softness before her chest also began gradually shrinking. Within Fisher's hands, that fish tail also gradually turned from soft to stiff like steel.

Atop her hands, the originally endowed vitality flipped abruptly, turning into an extremely dangerous decaying power. It was exactly as if there was something currently seizing everything in this world...

But this kind of state merely only lasted for a single second before vanishing. He only saw her let out a long breath, as if that burst of power brought her an exceedingly severe burden.

But owing to the sustained duration being very short, she very quickly reverted anew back to her previous appearance. She also simultaneously smiled and turned her head back to say,

"The opposing Blessing cannot be used casually; it will shatter the equilibrium of life, leading us toward Destruction. Therefore, we need to maintain the equilibrium of life at all times."

"Life's most important nature is precisely equilibrium. However, the Blessings within our bodies are far inferior to the heaviness of the opposing Curses. Thus, when every Whale-kin is born, the Ocean Trench will all produce an [Attendant Sea Beast]. They respectively correspond to the dark side of every Whale-person. The stronger the Curse, the stronger the [Attendant Sea Beast] traversing into equilibrium requires."

In her eyes, that smear of faint black slowly retracted into the bottom of her eyes, completely like it seemingly had never existed in this world before. Within Fisher's hands, her fish tail also sluggishly became soft again, bringing up a faint floral fragrance.

"So it's like this..."

Fisher was currently lowering his head in contemplation. Jasmine, on the other hand, seized this opportunity to turn her head away and abandon the spoon, covertly swallowing the entire piece of cake into her belly. Subsequently, she joyfully rubbed her own chin with her hand, wearing an appearance of enjoyment.

Wu, human food is too delicious...

"Ring ring ring~"

Right while Fisher was contemplating, the telephone ring of the Office behind him sounded again. Seeing that the time was also about right, Fisher then told Jasmine to first use water to recover her original appearance by herself, while he went to pick up the phone.

Jasmine called out to Ramastia, and a tiny Hydrus poked its head out over the edge of the water basin. It vigilant sized up its surroundings with a glance, and also very quickly locked onto the back figure of that human.

Subsequently, It turned Its head back again to look at Jasmine. Only after seeing that aside from heavily bulging cheeks, absolutely nothing else occurred, did It let loose a breath of relief. Thus, It lightly waved Its small hands, and a fat, living salmon instantly flew out from the basin.

Ramastia pointed at that salmon, seemingly wanting to invite Jasmine to eat things.

But Jasmine had just finished eating the cake, and looking at that raw fish just scooped out from the sea with another glance—previously she had been quite fond of eating it, but looking at that bleeding fish right now genuinely couldn't spawn an appetite at all.

Therefore, she shook her head, tactfully refusing,

"Thank you for your kindness aw, Lord Ramastia. But I am already full; there is no need to eat fish anymore."

Listening to Jasmine's words, that little snake was struck as if by lightning. It trembled Its tiny body, powerlessly leaning over the edge of the water basin. It was exactly as if countless past images floated into Its eyes; it was merely that the Jasmine full of smiles and innocence seemed to be gradually distancing herself.

It seemed to have understood something. Looking incredibly resentfully at that human currently making a phone call, It abruptly sprayed a jet of water flow towards him. But because the water basin was too far from the telephone, that water flow dropped onto the Ground due to gravity halfway through its spray.

Even though It hadn't sprayed him at all, Ramastia still continuously sprayed water toward Fisher without end, completely like he was Its own enemy—as hateful as could be.

"Tlander?"

Yet Fisher over there hadn't noticed the god currently spraying water at him from behind in the slightest. He merely stated,

"...Alright, I'll come over right now."

When he hung up the telephone, Jasmine behind him had already reverted to a human. Whereas that little snake within the water basin had also already vanished without a trace. There was only Fisher bewilderedly looking at a few water droplets on the Ground, not knowing what happened just now.

That salmon atop the desk top hopped and hopped, causing Jasmine to blush as she pressed down that salmon on the desk. Subsequently, she spoke rather awkwardly,

"Sorry! I will take the fish back and eat it in a while... No, right! T-Turn it over to the restaurant's chef to cook for a bit, then... then eat it."

Fisher roughly guessed this was a gift that god gave Jasmine, therefore he also didn't manage it much. Watching Jasmine violently knock out the salmon on the desk, Fisher walked to the edge of the door and picked up his overcoat.

It was Tlander who made a phone call to him just now. He said he brought Black Mamba Wine to the doorway of his own rental house, saying he wanted to treat him to drink liquor.

However, familiar with the opposite party, Fisher knew what the undertones in his words were upon hearing them. They were roughly,

"Friend in danger! Return swiftly!"

Therefore, Fisher planned to return and see what matter had happened to him.

He looked toward Jasmine sitting on the chair, asking exactly as if recalling something,

"Right. Unrelatedly, next week after the Schwalian delegation leaves, let me look at the letters your aunt sent back. Let's see if I can be of any help..."

"Mn... Goodbye aw, Professor Fisher."

Jasmine hugged the fish, her complexion still blushing red. Hearing Fisher still remembered the matters she had spoken of, she then felt the bottom of her heart heat up. Subsequently, she nodded her head to indicate agreement.

Fisher smiled lightly, opening the door and taking his leave. Jasmine blankly waved her hand toward his back figure until he completely vanished.

Subsequently, Jasmine cast another glance at the fish in her own embrace, having just opened her "Bloody Gaping Mouth" wanting to eat it. However, upon thinking how humans would absolutely not eat raw things, she gave up.

Better to just take it to the restaurant and roast it for a bit.
