The sound of laughter woke Ming Xia up as she opened her eyes. She was already in foreign waters. Several female mermaids flew in front of her. Ming Xia scanned the surrounding scenery. A group of mermaids gossiped a few feet to her right. A pregnant mermaid was having fun making out with her partner in the corner. And the mermaids seemed unperturbed by the intimacy.

Ming Xia wagged her tail. She tried to get up from her sleep. Her body was still sore from the soldier's blow that knocked her unconscious when he caught her.

"So you're called Princess Ming Xia?" A beautiful mermaid swam around her body then stopped right in front of her face. "You who have been spared for years as a tempting troop, are finally here." The woman snorted and looked down at her.

Ming Xia was still looking at the surrounding scenery. The mermaid boys looked like they were about to part with their mother. The mother and son hugged tightly and had to be separated by the soldiers who would take them. Likewise, the little female mermaid must be separated from her mother when it was time for them to separate.

"Where will they take them?" Ming Xia asked. The woman traced Ming Xia's gaze and saw what Ming Xia meant. "The boys will be trained to be soldiers. The girls will be trained to be seducers."

"Wasn't their mother noble? They should have earned the rights of a noble's kids, right?"

The woman who Ming Xia was talking to snorted. "They're the sons of royalty if born to a fellow Mermaid Clan. That also has to be seen from their father's background. They were born from the womb of a mermaid clan, but their father... whatever it was... could be a commoner deity.. even mortals. Do you think they have any rights? They have no other choice. After all, after their mother returns from her duties as a temptress, they will return to her peerage. Marry someone else who is more deserving. They don't will remember their children again. They think this is a duty. A duty to gather military quantity. So when their job is done. They will go home happy."

Ming Xia was still drowning in her sorrow. The woman reached out to her "By the way, I am Mengjhi"

Ming Xia looked at Mengjhi's outstretched hand. The woman nodded for Ming Xia to accept the handshake. Ming Xia smiled, returning Mengjhi's handshake. They were friends in the end. Ming Xia easily got along with the other mermaids in the seduction squad, it was because of Mengjhi's influence.

They swam around the waters, as the sailor's ship approached. They peeked behind the rocks. A handsome sailor, seemed to cast a net. Mengjhi admired the sailor's good looks and was about to come closer. Ming Xia prevented her from leaving, "What are you going to do?" Mengjhi turned around. "You forgot our job here? Flirt with him, of course."

"T..teas.. teasing?"

Mengji nodded. "This is your first appearance. I'll give you an example. Watch and pay close attention."

"Hey, hey." Ming Xia called for her best friend, but Mengjhi had already swam towards the ship.

Ming Xia knew that Mengjhi used magic to enter the net. As a result, the net lifted Mengjhi's body who had turned into a normal woman with a pair of beautiful legs. The handsome fisherman was surprised and then lifted Mengjhi who looked weak and entered the deck. Ming Xia could see Mengjhi's eyes twinkling mischievously at her signaling that her ploy had worked.

Ming Xia also had to go back to the base alone and found that the mermaid's base had been destroyed because the male mermaid, the lover of the pregnant mermaid who's making out in the other day, had been arrested. The mermaid was a follower of Julong who was a rebel. Her pregnant lover screamed hysterically.

The man mermaid knelt down with his hands tied behind his back. His head was raised as the soldier grabbed his hair. Ming xia approached the soldier. "What are you going to do?"
