Chapter 27: Mermaid Love (2)
Carette was awakened by a crisp birdsong that was sleeping on a bed of multicolored coral.
As soon as she lifted her two tired eyelids, the warm light rushed into her pure blue but thick lazy eyes in an instant.
Yesterday evening, with a wounded heart, she came to Byron College to find Triton.
The thoughtful boy stayed with her, sitting on the other half of the bench without saying a word, silently acting as a listener to her weeping.
This sat down until the twilight fell, and the sky was covered with a layer of night charm.
At that time, Kareta finally got tired of crying, and her tears seemed to run dry.
Triton felt that his ass had been numb by the stiff grid of the bench, so he stood up. Still, he had no complaints.
"Karette, where are you going?"
Looking at the dense silver stars in the crimson sky, Triton turned to face her and asked faintly.
Kareta bent her neck slightly, her head sinking as if she was thinking, her eyes shimmering like the bright colors of the stars in the night sky, bright but lonely and helpless.
"I'm ready to ...... Back to Olympus. โ
Half a minute later, she finally had an answer, and her lonely eyes flickered even more.
"Are you really going to leave him behind? But the ...... who have already been engaged"
Hearing Kareta's answer, Triton narrowed his eyes, not very satisfied with her idea.
Especially when he saw that her expression became more depressed after answering, his peaceful mind was disturbed by her abnormal look again.
"So what? Perhaps, this way of ending is more beneficial to me and to him......" Kareta said weakly.
This is indeed her own truth.
At this moment, Kareta really longed to return to the Holy Mountain. Because only in this way can she make a justified reply to Zeus and declare herself a failure in her mission.
In this way, she will never continue to be forced to do things that violate her conscience.
Her sorrow was seen in Triton's eyes. His heart was churning and chasing, as if he was thinking and fighting.
After a few moments, Triton suddenly grabbed Karetta's arm and pulled her up from the bench with such force that she could not refuse for a moment.
They walked straight out of the campus and all the way to the shallow bay on the north side of the college.
As Terry ascended a high rock with Triton, Carette asked him in some surprise:
"We ...... What are you doing here?"
"This body of water leads to the sea, I think there's a place for you!"
After Triton finished answering, he bent his body and leaned forward slightly, stretched his two arms back, and greeted Kareta behind him:
"Come here, I'll carry you!"
"What- you carry my โโ?"
"yes! Otherwise, we wouldn't have gotten there!"
Hearing Karete's near-screaming exclamation, Terry said with a sideways smile:
"Don't be shy, treat me as your boyfriend!"
In the stillness of the night, Terry's short fine silver-brown hair was a little messy by the evening breeze, and his slightly toothy smile was reflected in the white moonlight, which became clearer and more sincere.
"Come here!" Triton urged with ten fingers stretched out behind his back.
"Oh......"
Karete's face flushed slightly, and she walked towards him and leaned obediently on his back.
"We ...... Where the hell are you going?" she couldn't help but ask again.
"As long as the heart is brave enough, there is no place that cannot be reached!"
Triton smiled and shouted into the distance, grabbing Karetta's arm on his chest with both hands, and leading her to leap off the rock.
"WowโTritonโ"
The silence of the night swept through Karete's aloud scream.
She closed her eyes in horror as she fell downward. The centrifugal force was as stimulating as "bungee jumping", but the strange discomfort in her chest also made her mouth open involuntarily......
The sound of the wind brushing her ears -
There is the sound of turbulent water, and the body seems to be moving smoothly......
Kareta opened her eyes in a hurry, and she and Terry were completely submerged in the water.
Underneath her, Triton has completely transformed into the form of a mermaid. He hunched Kareta on his back and wandered slowly with his arms and tail outstretched.
Due to Terry's defensive barrier, the water was completely excluded from the scaly ball of light, and in the fifty-meter diameter space in the barrier, he and Kareta could still breathe freely, talking and laughing.
Carette felt like she was in a transparent submarine.
Looking around at this underwater world, her eyes lit up unconsciously, and her mood became happy.
She saw a new world of yellow sand, colorful shells and emerald green aquatic plants in the shallow water, like a kingdom of wonder in a fairy tale.
Occasionally, clusters of small, colorful fish swim underwater, or a cute little crab pops out of the sand......
After swimming for a while, Terry did not look back, and reminded Carret, who was sitting on his back:
"Hold on to my shoulders! We're going to the seaโ"
Terry shook the second half of his body with a full curve, and with a flick of his whole body, he jumped straight out of the water, like a cannonball launched into the sky.
On a clear night, the sky was full of stars twinkling with a little light, a huge full moon surrounded by countless starlight, half of the chubby body was embedded in the twilight of the night, and the other half seemed to be lost in the vast sea.
Triton's confident and effortless leap has already crossed the serene and sultry night sky, past the constellations, over the full moon, like a magical meteor drawing a graceful arc in the blue night.
At the moment when he went out to sea, his jumping action made a small splash on the flat sea. Under the moonlight, they dance like bewildered elves in the moist air of the sea, covered in the warm color of pearls.
The moment Kareta was taken into the air by Triton, there was not the slightest fear in her heart.
As their bodies got closer and closer to the round full moon, there was a strong sense of excitement and shock in her heart.
Looking at the silver plate that was getting bigger and bigger in front of her, Kareta smiled ecstatically.
She had never experienced anything like this.
At this time, Triton's body began to fall naturally in the direction of the sea.
When he fell down with his body, because of the experience of the shallow bay, her nerves were completely relaxed at this moment, and while enjoying the feeling of pleasure when the body fell~ Li, she shouted happily:
"Oh-yes-"
The straw hat on his head was blown into the air by the usual gust of wind, and then floated lightly from mid-air to the quiet sea, slowly floating on the gentle water.
Triton and Carret's bodies fell into the water at almost the same time as the straw hat. Hearty laughter has been heard on the sea for a long time.
As soon as he touched the seawater, Triton used the water avoidance spell of the Sea Clan, so that even if the two of them were immersed in the sea with half of their bodies, their skin and clothes would not be wet by the seawater.
"Close your eyes, I'm going to speed up!"
Terry's innocent face was aimed directly in front of Chaohai, and after another reminder, he shook the fishtail vigorously.
Under the full moon in the dark night, the hard golden scales covering the surface of his fish body were reflected in the cold light of the bright moon. As he began to gallop on the sea, the light of the fish's body turned into a golden line across the straight sea level.
The mystery of the sea is not only due to the fact that it has been endowed with myths that have been passed down for thousands of years, but also because it can transform into different forms of color.
At midnight, it takes off the sultry hazy veil of the morning girl, and no longer dresses up as a dancer singing passionately in the midday sun, but hides the posture of a noble lady sitting in front of the window in the twilight, but falls into a deep sleep at this moment, like an exhausted urchin, and the moonlight is the bed of the reef. Occasionally, it tosses and turns, setting off a row of small waves.
Carreta sat down on his back with her eyes closed, following Triton's advice, and the wind in her ears grew louder and louder......
Triton is still moving forward at a rapid pace.
As she advanced at this speed, she felt only as she felt her body lighten.
Gradually, freeing herself from the hands that were gripping Terry's shoulders, she boldly spread her arms to meet the baptism of the sea breeze, feeling the wonder of her imminent ascension.
After a long, long time -
The roar of the wind in his ears waned, and Terry marched slower and slower through the sea.
"You can open your eyes......"
Hearing him say this suddenly, Kareta opened her eyes obediently.
There was a blur in the field of vision, which was caused by closing the eyes for too long. Even so, Carette could touch the pure blue in front of her in a haze.
She hurriedly closed her eyes again and reopened them, and she finally saw everything in front of her.
It's exactly the same as what I saw when I first came here a few months ago, nothing has changed-
The blue sky and the blue ocean naturally blended together under her bright blue eyes. The land is full of nameless plants that glow blue and grow on both sides of the long, winding brown spar paths......
The tranquil and far-reaching world will never teach people to have great compassion or great joy. The heart seems to be purified by its utter divine blue when it ascends this pure land, becoming leisurely and indifferent.
The ends of the earth โ
Surprised, Carette called out the name of the world in her heart.
"Triton, why did you bring me here?"
The first time Carreta landed in the clear blue waters, she asked Triton, who had faded into human form, with a soft and beautiful voice, but her expression darkened.
"Because only in this quiet world will your heart be disturbed in any way, so that you can think through all the problems. โ
Terry is always straightforward and never beats around the bush. In this way, they went all the way to the place where he had repaired the Yuan Ling for her before.
The fluorescent blue bushes are still there, the fluorescent blue bushes are still there, and the colorful coral beds are there, but the tall and handsome figure is missing-
The past incident surfaced little by little from the bottom of her heart, and Karet's body and mind were injured again, and she was tormented by the pain of the tree and turned into a wood and a cold.
Triton stood diagonally in front of Carret, watching her sit on the edge of the coral bed with a sad and annoying expression, heartache and resentment.
"You know, Karete, your current state is starting to make me wonder if I did the right thing to shape your primordial spirit in the first place. โ
He said to her worriedly.
