Chapter 3: Chapter 126: Who Said Mermaids Can't Fall In Love With Humans?
Thanks to Doflamingo excellent physical fitness he has great lung capacity (that poor women).
After taking an initial kiss, I insisted on kissing for longer than five minutes, and when I let go, a line was drawn out.
Shyarly's face was blushing crazly, her eyes spinning, and she had a dazed look.
After approximately ten minutes, Shyarly regained her composure. Upon seeing Doflamingo, her cheeks turned a rosy hue, and the massive shark tail behind her swayed, almost as if it harbored an intent to attack Doflamingo.
At this time, Shyarly felt that it was not suitable for her to keep sitting at the table.
Doflamingo continued to look after Shyarly, pouring her a glass of wine and serving some delicious food. He then changed the subject, asking, "Shyarly, are you very familiar with Fish-Man Island?"
Shyarly herself was a little confused at the moment, and now that Doflamingo spoke, she replied instinctively: "Somewhat, I have done part-time jobs in many places, so to speak, I've worked all over Fish-Men Island.
Doflamingo replied very naturally: "That's great, this is my first time visiting Fish-Men Island, and I'm not familiar with the place, and I still need to visit some friends after this, so I need a guide. If you have time Shyarly, I want to hire you as my guide, can I?"
"Huh?" Shyarly looked surprised.
Lini, the best friend, decided to take the initiative to help and asked: "Young Master, how much will you pay to be your guide?"
"I will pay 50,000 Berry a day, food and lodging included, will that be a problem?" Doflamingo said immediately.
Don't be misled by the "appearance fee" of 20,000 Berry for this divination session with Shyarly. While 50,000 Berry might not seem particularly lucrative, in reality, Shyarly may struggle to attract someone for a divination session even once a month.
And if she works at the bar, her monthly salary will only be ten million Berry (what the hell, that's still a lot, one year that's 120mil, if she needs like 300mil for her shop then she only needs to work for 2.5 years, I think the correct number is 1mil).
"Damn!" Lini said enviously, "I want to go too! I worked so hard for a month to get a salary of 100,000 Berry!"
Doflamingo grinned and said, "You're welcome too."
"Then let's talk about it now, can we start tomorrow? Where do you live? I will meet you tomorrow morning." Lini said immediately.
In this way, Shyarly, who hadn't agreed to anything, found herself roped into the date
Upon realizing this fact, Shyarly didn't feel that there was anything wrong with it. Money or not, in fact, it was secondary to her. The main reason for wanting to spend more time with this man, who suddenly took her first kiss, was for Shyarly to get to know him better and understand what kind of person he is.
Upong learning that Doflamingo and his group haven't found a place to stay yet, Lini immediately patted her chest, claiming that she can arrange for a close and top-class hotel for Doflamingo and the others.
Observing the commotion and enthusiasm when she slapped her chest, Doflamingo promptly decided to go along with her arrangement. After all, where will they be staying?
After having their fill of food and drink, Lini and Shyarly completed their part-time jobs for the day. They then decided to accompany Doflamingo and the others to a nearby hotel.
The place that Lini recommended to Doflamingo was the most luxurious location on Fish-Men Island, with the exception of the Dragon Palace.
After checking Doflamingo's group, Lini and Shyarly left together.
The two were walking on the street side by side, when Lini suddenly held Shyarly's arm and asked: "How is it? How is it? Shyarly, how is the young master's kissing skills?"
Upon hearing this, Shyarly blushed and said, "What are you asking! Lini!"
"Hey hey, stop pretending, do you think I haven't noticed yet Shyarly? You must have a good impression of the young master, otherwise, how could you agree to be a guide tomorrow?" Lini said.
Shyarly angrily retorted: "Isn't that something you arranged? I didn't get to speak or agree to anything!"
"That's because I saw how shy you were, so I made my own decision. If you don't want to, you can refuse!" Lini said confidently.
Shyarly couldn't deny her, because Lini knew her too well.
"Speaking of which, can't you see this as an opportunity? The young master and his group are very, very rich. Not to mention the ring worth 500 million Berry. From my experience working at a famous luxury store, I can tell you with certainty that whether it is the young master, Beckman, or the others, their clothes and the accessories they are wearing are absolutely extraordinary!" Lini said rapidly.
"Lini" Shyarly poked Lini's head with her finger and said, "You're too much of a money grubber."
"Don't be so naive, Shyarly!" Lini rolled her eyes and said, "Let me ask you, if you want to find a boyfriend, what do you look for?"
"Huh?" Shyarly hesitated for a moment, then said, "I...I haven't thought about it."
"Then let me give you an example. Do you want to find someone who is fat, bald, ugly, sloppy, unhygienic, and rich?" Lini asked. (Sounds like a celestial dragon).
Shyarly fantasized for a moment, then shook her head violently and said, "No, absolutely not!"
"Okay then, let me give you another example, young, rich, handsome, generous, strong and charming... how about it?" Lini asked again.
"Ah..." Shyarly hesitated for a moment, then nodded embarrassingly: "This seems to be okay...".
"That's right!" Lini said with a look of approval: "Lets look at the young master, isn't he young and rich? He is only three years older than you, and he is only twenty this year". (I'm starting to think Doffy paid her off sus).
(Actual Authors note: I changed Shyarly's age, but it's not important, don't worry about it.)
Shyarly nodded, and then Lini said: "He is very rich at such a young age, and at the same time the young master is handsome, right? Doesn't he fit your type?"
Shyarly recalled the kiss, then blushed, and nodded lightly... he does fit a bit.
"Then it's perfect! How can you not seize such a good opportunity?" Lini patted Shyarly on the shoulder and said: "Opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared!"
In fact, generally speaking, mermaids don't consider it relevant that Doflamingo and his party are human beings.
Because many mermaid girls, after splitting their tails, choose to intermarry with humans by venturing into the surface or something of that sort.
Therefore, the mermaid race does not exclude humans in terms of marriage and childbearing.
On the contrary, many mermaids still think that being able to intermarry with humans is very exciting (not for long).
On the one hand, Shyarly feels that what Lini said seems to make sense, but on the other hand, she hesitantly asked: "But Lini, I am only seventeen years old, and it will take thirteen years before my tail can split".
Mermaid females, once they reach the age of 30, have the ability to freely switch between their fish tails in the water and legs on dry land.
It is also during this period that female mermaids can truly conceive a child with a human.
Lini was stunned for a moment when she heard this, then she reached out and touched Shyarly's forehead and said, "Are you okay Shyarly? Aren't you rushing, do you want to conceive a child with him first? You should fall in love first!"
After a slight pause, Lini said with anticipation again: "Moreover, their attitude towards us mermaids is very good, I can feel that they really treat us as equals. (Only because they are pretty, let's not forget the "Neko"). This is very rare among humans. At the same time, I can guess that their Donquixote Family must be very powerful on the sea. If we have their protection, can't we also have the opportunity to go sightsee and live above the sea?".
The residents of Fish-Man Island may not be very vocal about it, but most of them yearn for life above the sea.
This may also be the reason why many of the young mermaid girls wish to go to the surface once they are 30 years old to marry a human. (Poor girls, humans are too greedy)
However, during this period, they generally conceal their mermaid characteristics. If their children don't present mermaid characteristics, they will most likely continue to live on the surface.
And if something unexpected occurs, and they are discovered and not accepted, they will take their children and return to Fish-Man Island.
Unfortunately many of the orphans in the Fish-Men District were conceive this way.
"I too would like to go to the surface to sightsee" Shyarly said with a glimmer in her eyes.
In fact, her dream is to open a mermaid cafe on the surface, where human beings and merfolk can intermingle harmoniosly.
Unfortunately, for Shyarly, part of this dream was unrealistic and was omitted.
"Anyway, we have to go Shyarly!" Lini said excitedly.
Meanwhile, on Fish-Men District, at Fisher Tiger's home.
A Fishman with a strong physique and a jagged nose was sitting on the sofa opposite to Fisher Tiger.
But judging from his well-behaved sitting posture, one can tell that he holds Fisher Tiger in high regards.
"Brother Tiger, do you have any orders for me?" the Fishman asked curiously.
Tiger smiled and said: "Arlong, I have a friend who is a pirate. He hopes to recruit some fishman crewmembers. I think you are very suitable..." (AINT NO WAY).
That's right, the Fishman in front of him happens to be Shyarly's brother, Arlong!
"Wait, boss..." Arlong was stunned for a moment, and then quickly said, "You mean that he is not our compatriot, right?"
"Yes, he is a human." Tiger said immediately.
Arlong looked hesitant when he heard that...but only a slight hesitation.
Because Tiger hasn't been captured by humans and turned into a slave and later betrayed by humans, Arlong doesn't have an extreme view of humans. But to be honest, he still doesn't like humans...mainly because he thinks humans are "weak".
Seeing Arlong's hesitant expression, Tiger said earnestly: "His name is Don Quixote Doflamingo, he is a very powerful human pirate, and I have talked with him for a long time. I can feel his kindness towards us. (You mean his "love" for mermaids). Fish-Man District can't keep going on like this forever, you know this Arlong. Maybe in the future, we will see a complete change thanks to him. ".
