Sisters in Trouble

More than twenty thousand Mermaids watch the fight between Lucien and Saria. There are no more spaces for observers, but those farther away still try to get closer to see what will happen next.

[Kill or kiss?] They wonder.

For all of them, the answer would undoubtedly be kissing, but they know that royalty has to make sacrifices for the sake of the people, so if Lucien is really a threat, Saria will have to kill him.

Perhaps in most places, royalty means a group of people who live luxuriously and enjoy privileges fueled by power and wealth.

But in the Mermaid Kingdom, royalty means a group of people or rather a lineage of individuals who sacrifice themselves for the good of all Mermaids.

This has been the case for several generations. And it's because of it that all the Mermaids love Nea, would sacrifice their lives for Saria without thinking, and it's also because of it that Kaise's name is always in their heart.
