Capítulo 951: Always repay our debts

There was a tense silence that hung in the air before the Merman King and Queen finally let out sighs and just took a step back to give Ariel and me space.

It was only then that Ariel put her arms down, but she didn't move away from me.

She just stood there in front of me as if she was protecting me.

But the only thought that was on my mind was…

"Can you please not involve me in this family drama?"

I wasn't even part of that family, so how could I be included in this family drama in the first place?

I didn't want the Merman King and Queen to have the wrong idea about me…

Though if they didn't have the wrong idea, the right idea didn't seem that good either. After all, the reason that I had approached Ariel in the first place was because I wanted to use her as a defensive measure against the Tide Empire.

I didn't approach her for a good reason in the first place.

Of course, I wouldn't say that out loud.
