[BL] Heroic Death System (PART 1)

Chapter 72: I Am Not A Merman (IX)

With experimental material in hand, the research institute ceased pressuring Qin Yuan as much. However, the dolphin fans started to cause a ruckus because it has been several days since the last video update of Flames and Waves daily antics.

As such, Shang Ke turned back into a dolphin and restarted the live broadcast of his free and easy underwater life. Waves was already over a year old by this point, but he was still very dependent and liked to stick close to Shang Ke. He would still throw a tantrum if he hadn't see Shang Ke for a few hours, which left all the other breeders helpless. But as long as Shang Ke appears, he would immediately be all smiles, the model of cuteness and obedience, as if the one that was throwing a tantrum before was someone else.

Shang Ke led him through the marine building's pools, teaching him how to hunt prey, leap, breathe, hide... and scare people. Each day was different and fulfilled the cravings of their fans. They wished they could jump through the screens and play with the dolphins as well.

When Qin Yuan arrived at the marine building one day, Shang Ke was leading Waves along in the glass tank, playing. The tank was five meters tall and ring-shaped. Channels were connected to different points of it, allowing water in and out. The structure was classified as a half natural and half artificial environment.

Shang Ke immediately scooched close to the window at the sight of his arrival. He winked at him, then flipped his body up to reveal his white belly.

Waves followed his example, the only difference being that his head was pointed down to glare at him lightly.

Qin Yuan was somewhat speechless at the scene of two white bellies being flashed at him.

After a moment, a dugong slowly swam into view by behind Shang Ke, glancing over at them lazily.

Shang Ke turned around and swam until he was on top of the dugong and let it parade around with him on top. Waves chased after them, darting left and right energetically.

Qin Yuan recognized this dugong as the one the researchers introduced in preparation to breed with Shang Ke. Watching how happily Flames was playing with it, a feeling of anger and fear arose in Qin Yuan's heart. Flames could transform! If one day he felt unhappy about being human, would he try changing into a dugong for a change of pace? Then maybe find a female dugong to mate with!?

Thinking over this possibility, Qin Yuan's face darkened. He took a few brisk steps to catch up with Flames, knocked on the glass and said: "Flames, keep away from other creatures. Do not forget that you're a dolphin with a mate."

Shang Ke gave him a glance and thought that he was just worrying unnecessarily.

Qin Yuan, on the other hand, did not feel that his worry was unwarranted at all. Other people only have to guard against men and women around their lover, but the targets he needed to guard against have no racial boundaries! Any living being in the world could turn out to be his potential rival, the most dangerous of all being aquatic mammals.

Such a huge lineup of rivals, just thinking about it is terrifying, okay?!

Flames wasn't genuinely of the human race, thus he wasn't restricted by morals and laws. What if, one day, he suddenly took a fancy to other organisms and changed species on a whim then dumped him?

Qin Yuan felt that it would be necessary to explain in depth the concept of human marriage to him, lest he be stolen away by others.

That same night, Qin Yuan downloaded several touching, romantic movies. He pulled Shang Ke to watch together on the bed and specially prepared his favorite dried fish and donuts for snacks.
