"So, you all turned into what you are now because of that?" Mike asked after hearing Apollo's story, feeling like he was missing something.
Morpheus had come to Mermaid Island and, for some reason, didn't kill the mermaid leader.
But when Ares came, he had killing intent.
What made Ares change his mind and not slash the monsters on the island?
Understanding Ares's thoughts at that time was crucial for Mike.
"No," Rose shook her head, denying Mike's assumption. "After that day over 70 years ago, we all turned into these ugly fish monsters and sea creatures."
She paused, hesitating whether to continue.
But seeing the Lightning flickering on Mike's Thunderclap Hammer, Rose decided to speak honestly, "We found that as long as we don't eat humans, we slowly regain our beauty. If we continue eating humans, we immediately turn back into sea monsters."
