"The story of the mermaid told by Miss Wendy is so touching. I almost cried. I just don't know why the ending is so tragic. I still hope that the mermaid can wait for the prince in the end."
"Of course you're right. Miss Wendy is a master from the royal capital, and her ability to tell stories is much better than the bards here."
"Hmm, I heard from others that this mermaid story was also adapted by Ms. Wendy after hearing it from others. I don't know if it's true?"
"Does that mean Mermaid Princess really exists?"
"Maybe."
The two of them were walking, laughing and chatting, when they were suddenly stopped by a neatly dressed gentleman, "Sorry to bother you."
The two stopped, looked over, and asked, "What's wrong? Sir, do you need any help?"
"I'm from another city. I just heard you say the word mermaid, right?"
Speaking of this, the two people showed excitement on their faces and strongly recommended. "Yes! You don't know yet, this is a program of Dayas Opera House called Mermaid Princess. The story is very touching. I recommend you to listen to it. We both almost cried watching it."
Unexpectedly, after listening to the story, the man had a look of disappointment on his face, "Oh story, I thought there was a mermaid here just like ours over there."
Two people. "?!!!"
After saying that, the man dressed as a gentleman shook his head and planned to leave, but was stopped by the two men before he had taken a few steps.
"Sir, wait a moment!"
"What's wrong?"
"You just said there are mermaids over there?" the two asked in disbelief.
The man was not surprised at all and replied, "Yes, we do have a mermaid over there."
"You mean the half-human, half-fish mermaid?!"
"Yes, it's a half-human, half-fish mermaid."
"That kind of mermaid with blond hair, very beautiful appearance and a very good figure?"
"Yes, the kind of mermaid with pointed ears, a very good figure, and an outstanding appearance!"
The two people opposite looked at each other, and their breathing became a little rapid, "Wait, wait! We are a little excited. I want to ask where your city is?"
"Griffin Barony——Nafu City! Some lucky fishermen can see mermaids looking at the land on the coast when they go out to fish, and they don't know what they are looking at."
After saying this, the two of them immediately became excited, "That's right! That's right! That must be Mermaid Princess, she is still waiting for the prince!"
The two of them calmed down their excited hearts, "Um... can you tell us where Nafu City is?"
"Of course it's no problem!" The gentleman-like man took out a country map from his pocket, skillfully found the southernmost location of Griffin Barony, pointed at it, and said, "You are lucky, I always carry a map with me when I go out, Nafu City is right here."
After the two of them confirmed the location of Nafu City, they thanked them a few times, and then left quickly. They wanted to tell other people the big news!
After the two of them walked away, the man dressed as a gentleman took out a small notebook from his arms, took out a pen and wrote on it, "The Viscount's method is really useful. This is the fifth one today. I have to quickly change into other clothes and continue working."
A drunk man in the tavern suddenly jumped on the wine table and shouted, "I'll tell you a secret!"
This howl attracted the attention of everyone in the tavern, and they all focused on him, wanting to see what secrets he could tell.
"Hiccup!" The man burped and poured another drink into his mouth. Taking advantage of this gap, his companions also climbed up and tried to pull him down. At the same time, they followed the other people in the tavern and apologized. "I'm sorry, he is drunk. Please bear with me."
"No!" The man broke free from the restraints of his companions, struggled to stand up again, and shouted loudly, "Why don't you let me say it! I have to say it!"
"I've seen that mermaid you keep saying!"
This sentence was shouted, and everyone in the tavern was shocked. Some people dropped the wine glasses in their hands to the ground.
Dayas Opera House's publicity was very good. Before Wendy came, many of them knew the concept of mermaids. After they came to perform, the story of mermaids began to spread in the streets and alleys, and almost everyone talked about it.
"Are you telling the truth?" Someone stood up excitedly and asked.
"Of course it's true!" The man burped again, "When I went to Nafu City to collect Iodized Salt a few weeks ago, I saw with my own eyes that the mermaid was on the coast! It's exactly the same as the one in Miss Wendy's story!"
The stone stirred up a thousand waves, and everyone in the tavern became excited. They originally thought it was just a made-up romantic story, but who would have thought that there is such a creature as a mermaid!
"What he said seems to be true. I heard others say that Miss Wendy's story is adapted from a true story." A person in a corner shouted.
With this shout, the people in the tavern immediately fell into excitement.
"Where is that Nafu City? I want to take my girlfriend to see that mermaid with my own eyes! If I propose marriage at that time, she will definitely agree to my proposal!"
"What a great idea. I'm going to take my fiancée there for the wedding too!"
"Do you all have girlfriends? Then I'm going to have a look. Maybe I'll meet the person I'm destined for."
"..."
While everyone in the tavern was having a heated discussion, several figures flashed out of the back door.
The man who was drunk just now could not see the slightest trace of drunkenness on his face now, and he said proudly, "How was my performance just now?"
"Great! Nothing wrong with it at all."
"That's right, the Viscount seems to be building an opera house or something in the future. I feel like I can apply to become an actor."
"Let's go, we have other tasks."
"Let's go, the next one is to sell information, right?"
"Yes, let's go change clothes first."
At the gate of another big city, a long line of carriages hanging with the Griffin Barony flag was stopped.
The soldier guarding the city skillfully stretched out his hand and said, "The entrance fee is five Gold Coins!"
The leader of the team immediately trotted over and said with an apologetic smile, "Don't worry, I know the rules."
The soldier guarding the city glanced at the person in charge and saw that he had no intention of taking out his money bag, so he asked, "You know, why don't you give me the money quickly?"
"I have more valuable information than five Gold Coins. Can it be used to offset the cost of entering the city?"
The soldier guarding the city hesitated for a moment. The entry fee for five Gold Coins was not something he could decide, so he called his captain over.
"Tell me, what's the news?" the sturdy captain asked in a strong voice.
The team leader cleared his throat, "Do you know about mermaids?"
The captain's eyes lit up slightly after hearing this, and he looked over in surprise. That was a story he only learned about after spending his money to buy two mermaid tickets for himself and his romantic partner. How could he not remember it deeply?
"Of course I do."
"I have information about the location of the mermaid..." the person in charge whispered, "Come here and I'll tell you."
The captain leaned his ear to listen to what the other party said. His eyes flickered for a moment. After listening, he waved his hand and said, "You can go in."
Then he shouted to the soldiers guarding the city, "You continue to guard here, I have something important to report to the lord!"
