Chapter 3592

“Do you think it’s cruel to trade with merfolk’s hearts?” the princess asked.

George just nodded without speaking.

The princess suddenly ripped apart the covering on her chest. A shocking wound was displayed on her

chest.

“In fact, merpeople have two hearts.”

Seeing the princess’s actions, George felt a little embarrassed because she was a mermaid, after all.

Showing her wound openly in front of him just like that made George a little embarrassed. However,

she seemed unconcerned.

Seeing George’s expression, she simply said, “We merfolk don’t have as much etiquette as humans,

so you don’t have to feel embarrassed… Showing you my wound is to tell you that most merpeople

have lost a heart just to protect our last piece of homeland.”

‘Protect their last piece of homeland?’

‘Did that mean that all the merpeople used to have two hearts, but they had to give up one of them for

some special reason?’

“Why did all of you lose a heart?” George puzzled for a while before asked.

The princess replied, ”The humans discovered that the hearts of merpeople can be used as medicine

to improve your practice, so some practitioners with ulterior motives attacked us under the guise of

networking.”

George finally realized why Zagu, the merman from before, was so resentful upon seeing him.

“Because most of the merpeople have lost a heart, various water monsters in this underwater world are

watching us. They have long coveted this ancient ruin.”

As the two chatted, the princess took out a dust-covered stone. This stone was shaped like a book, but

its contents were blurred.

George took the stone. Although this thing was covered in dust, as long as he infused some energy in

it, he could see the content. This was also a trick commonly used by most magic devices.

George poured his energy into it without hesitation.

Words appeared on the stone.

[In the year 1330 of the Merfolk Calendar, the merfolk kingdom faced a crisis. It was difficult to defend

the ancient ruins, and the merfolk kingdom was lacking in manpower.]

[Only the one who wields the divine artifact can deter all other underwater creatures. If the chosen one

joins the merfolk kingdom, they can turn the tides.]

George continued to read the text.

According to the second half, was the thing that could deter all other underwater creatures referring to

the black turtle shell in his hand. Since he owned the black turtle shell, he would naturally be regarded

as the savior by the people of this country.

George stopped infusing his energy and returned the stone book to the princess.

Frank said, “Princess, it’s not that I don’t want to help you, but I really don’t know how…”

George shook his head and said wryly.

His actions made the princess’ expression change rapidly.

There was shock, surprise, anticipation, and hope.

Various emotions added to the princess’ expression.

“You can actually read the contents of the stone book without using the power of the blood… According

to the historical records of the merfolk kingdom, only the descendant of the mighty being who left

behind this stone book and the royal bloodline of the merfolk kingdom can read the content.”
