The Merman, My Man Chapter 141: Growing Gills
Dicken lifted his head along with my movement, and in a split second, his leps were plastered onto mine. I held my breath and looked directly into his eyes. His deep blue eyes seemed to have a passionate fire burning within, while bloody vessels decorated the whites of his eyes. He was using every ounce of his consciousness to resist his primitive desire. I was stunned, but I was also relieved. Although Dicken was in a rut, he wasn’t acting the same way he did back in the research room. He could control himself now, and he could comprehend what I said. Dicken looked at the merpeople below the cave, then cushioned my neck to raise my head higher. His moist but warm lips brushed against mine as he said, “Then…you will…be…in danger.” ‘What does Dicken mean? What does he want me to prove?’ I pondered for a while before I realized what he meant. Dicken meant that he wanted to prove that I belonged to him to his clan. Otherwise, I would be involved in their fight to obtain me as thei
The Merman, My Man Chapter 142: Our Kiss
‘How did I suddenly grow gills?No, that’s impossible! How can a human being like me grow gills? But if I don’t have gills, why can I breathe underwater?’ My eyes were met with darkness when I opened them. Plunging downward in seawater, this quickly had muddled my thoughts. I even thought I had imagined the merpeople orgy and the situation I was in. But Dicken’s arm around my waist felt real and solid. My gaze followed the direction Dicken was bringing us and found a huge sunken ship right below the islands. My eyes widened at its sight. The large ship was suspended there quietly. I wondered how long it had been down here and what secrets it had buried before it became part of the islands. Perhaps it was left behind by some of the first pursuers of the islands. ‘I wonder what happened to those people? Were they saved? Or did they sink along with this ship?’ As we continued our descent, we got closer to the sunken ship, and I could eventually make out some of its features.
The Merman, My Man Chapter 143: The First Changes
Perhaps it was due to Dicken’s seduction and the hormones he had emitted, but I felt like I had fallen in love with him. This ambiguous feeling disappeared when Dicken put me down onto a rock. I froze in shock when I looked at my hands. The space between my fingers had a translucent membrane connecting them as they glinted under the moonlight. It’s some type of webbed membrane! It wasn’t a hallucination this time, and I could tell that I wasn’t dreaming either. That was because a similar webbed claw was holding my hand, and his touch felt real. “Dicken…What did you do to me?” I withdrew my hand from Dicken and looked at my webbed claws dumbfoundedly as I asked him in shock. “Your first…changes…are coming.” Suddenly, my vision went black. Before I completely lost consciousness, I felt Dicken’s claw caressing my cheek and his deep eyes looking at me as he answered in a low voice. In my half-conscious state, I felt stinging and itchiness in my legs. It felt like I was being
The Merman, My Man Chapter 144: Breaking the Illusion
‘What is this?!’ I desperately hit the glass in front of me and started shouting, but the only response I could hear was the banging sounds I had made. ‘Goddamnit! Why is this happening?!’ I continued banging on the glass in front of me, but I couldn’t even make a crack. I frantically looked around and saw a dark shadow through the glass. It was Dicken! I made my way toward him but then stopped in shock. Dicken was wearing a black windbreaker, and the thick tail that made up his lower body was gone. It was replaced with a pair of long legs wearing a pair of sweatpants. Through the reflection of the glass, I could clearly see the state I was in. My legs had become a silver fishtail that was moving naturally along with the water currents, and my upper body was completely nude, revealing my feminine features. Stunned, I stared back at Dicken as he looked at me with his deep eyes. He placed his hand onto the glass as if he had wanted to touch me, but the panel of glass was
The Merman, My Man Chapter 145: Fleeing
The extreme panic made me hyperventilate, and I felt like I was about to suffocate. I took continuous deep breaths to force myself to calm down. Then, I rubbed my temples to make myself stay awake and not faint again. I had to accept the reality of things. I had grown gills like a mermaid behind my ears and could breathe freely in the water. I even had an illusion that my leg had become a tail and my hands had turned into webbed claws. My body had undergone changes after reacting to something from a biological standpoint. In other words, this could be considered a genetic mutation. Even though I wasn’t thinking straight, I could still recite my knowledge in genetics from my studies. Genetic mutations are the primary cause of changes to a being’s biological makeup. Many factors could lead to genetic mutations, and they could be classified into three categories. The first category is physical factors such as X-rays and lasers. The second category is chemical factors that could re
The Merman, My Man Chapter 146: Masking My Scent
I checked the preparations I had made and suddenly felt more confident and fearless. I felt like a seasoned adventurer, just like Robinson Crusoe! After that, I had to take a crucial step to determine whether I could successfully escape this cave. I had to dive and swim in the sea with my newly grown gills to help me breathe underwater. I approached the pool that Dicken had used to bring me deep underwater. Then, I crouched down and dove into the water decisively. When I confirmed that I could breathe underwater without any issues, I swam downward as fast as possible. At that moment, some part of me couldn’t bear to leave, but the rush of water currents didn’t allow me to ponder further. I seemed to be swimming into the deeper parts of the ocean with the instincts of an actual fish. I swam at a speed that no regular human being could, then I saw the light above me and broke through the water surface. I wiped away the droplets of water on my face with the back of my hand as I fo
The Merman, My Man Chapter 147: Successful Escape
Right then, I felt a stinging pain in my ankle. I looked down and saw three leeches attached to it and were burrowing their teeth deeper into my skin. One of them had already burrowed deeper than the other two, causing the pain to intensify as if a drill was drilling a hole into me. I hated leeches, and I was tempted to jump up and flick them away, but my determination to stay hidden forced me to remain still. Even the smallest of sounds could alert Dicken of my whereabouts. Besides, I couldn’t get these three leeches off me from a mere flicking. Even if I jumped up and down, I wouldn’t have been able to remove them. My movements would only catch Dicken’s attention before being dragged back to his cave. So, I could only grit my teeth to withstand the pain. I remained still and observed Dicken, who was nearby. I could see him sniffing the air, but he didn’t look like he could identify my scent. His solid chest anxiously rose and fell as he couldn’t find me. Suddenly, he crouched l
The Merman, My Man Chapter 148: Assault of Ice and Fire
I was now completely alone. I had to rely on myself to survive and look for Peter and the others. I knew that I didn’t have as much survival skills or experience compared to Jack, but at least I had some experience camping in the wild. Furthermore, I was knowledgeable on matters pertaining to biology. As long as I was careful enough not to bump into Dicken, I believed I could safely get back to the boat. Therefore, I took out the looking glass and looked toward the sea with it. After scanning the sea for a while, I saw a few bright lights coming closer from the west of the islands. I figured that these could be ships, and the bright lights in the sky could be helicopters. I was excited at first, but not long after, I was overcome with worry because I had no way of knowing whether they were Laura’s men or reinforcements that Jack had called for. It was also possible that they were neither. Nonetheless, these boats were my biggest hope of leaving these islands. I estimated when the
