Vant Jeroi is the city of merfolks, the beauty of the underwater city that has never been touched by human hands, passing through the gate guarded by the best merfolk soldiers, you will be greeted by the giant statue of the founder of the city. The statue was holding a real weapon instead of a fake one.
The statue of the founder of the city was made as big as himself, it is said that he was the largest merfolk ever born. There has never been another merfolk as big as he was ever born. To commemorate the achievements of the founder, this city is named after the founder of the city, Vant Jeroi.
The Merfolk who settled in this city lived in a large strong coral house, the coral had a round door, no windows, and inside there was a sponge placed on the floor which was also used as a bed for the merfolks.
The houses are placed in various places. Some are placed high on the wall and there is something on the ground, the scenery that can be seen in this city is very beautiful. A sight that is rarely seen by even deep sea. Elder Irving ordered his troops to lower their spears.
"Come in first, let's talk about it in my place, I suggest you don't make trouble for the young lady"
Elder Irving accepted John's code and decided to follow John's will and plan. John, known to Elder Irving, was an intelligent person with a cool head. He was the mainstay of elder Irving.
Ariel saw something strange about their behavior but Ariel didn't want to think much about things.
She is here to follow her father's orders, seek a little freedom from her old life, and find a new self. John dropped Ariel off at the gate and she swam beside Ariel who was walking in the city of Vant Jeroi.
"Follow me, big giant, I'll give you a place while my troops look for food for your master."
"This food is not for my master but my father, and don't confuse me with an ordinary human. We are a superior race of high humans who are capable of living anywhere."
Irving was astonished by the word high human spoken by the woman, and how different she was from ordinary humans. Irving couldn't stand his heightened sense of excitement.
"I want to know, what is a High Human and who your father is."
"My father said, we high humans are a superior race of humans, we don't need to breathe like humans, we can live anywhere, we don't age, and have beauty like no other."
Irving heard that he couldn't help but compare the description given by Ariel was the description of the elves and the evolution of the high elves. Irving is aware that, among all creatures, humans are a race that is incapable of evolution and is considered the weakest of all races.
For merfolk, themselves is the evolution of the fisher race, simple-minded fish that live on the surface of the ocean. The fisher race is now difficult to find in the ocean because of the threat of extinction and the existence of the evolution of their race, merfolk, and fishman, which is already rampant in the ocean.
"Then who is your father and where is he now, why is he not with you?"
"I don't know who he is, I was originally just a snake that he defeated and turned into his race. He is now in the volcano he just created."
Ariel surprised him by being quite friendly and not as threatening as the shadow of the elder Irving and his army.
Wait a minute; Charlotte told me, she found a man in the ocean fainting in a creature she made, if this was true then Charlotte said honestly, Irving after connecting some threads, realized that Charlotte was warning her. Irving regretted not trusting Charlotte at that time.
However, everything had already happened, he had to handle this carefully otherwise the high human monster would go on a rampage and wake up another disaster.
In addition, Irving was confused and astonished, according to Charlotte's explanation, the human fell into the sea, from the ripples he saw were quite large.
From the evidence presented, Irving concluded that the human fell from a high place. He even made ripples at a depth of 5000 meters.
I don't know who and why he could be like that, Irving didn't want to interfere. Irving currently only wants to focus on protecting his fellow races.
The ocean is dangerous, and their race in the city of Vant Jeroi is full of children. He has a Partial responsibility to protect his race. Irving and Ariel walked past the many merfolks, who looked at Ariel cynically.
"Mama, there are humans here, he doesn't wear protection"
"Sttt, don't look at him, she might be a criminal"
"Asmayah, look at there is a human here, she is similar to the human found but she is bigger and female"
"It's unbelievable, you're telling the truth, and the human you met Charlotte might have woken up when we came."
Many conversing merfolks saw Ariel walking towards the palace of the elders, one of them being Charlotte and Asmayah. Ariel only smiled wryly at the many words of ridicule, curious words, and others.
After a few moments walking in the city of Vant Jeroi, she saw a magnificent building occupied by many merfolks, Arile struggled to walk on a smooth sloping road, merfolks were creatures with fins and fish tails, the stairs to go up into a tall building were absurd.
Ariel chose to jump over the entrance which was troublesome for humans. Ariel looked at the elder's palace, made of coral as its support, an unknown mineral of pink-green color and there were many paths to different rooms.
At the end of the entrance gate, there were five giant chairs representing the five elders who were the highest command in the city of Vant Jeroi, and four other elders were waiting there. The seat in the middle was empty, the seat was slightly larger than the other seats.
The chair was the seat where Elder Irving, the supreme leader who watched over the other elders, was present. In one of the left seats near the middle seat, someone there was asleep.
"Wake up, klea, why are you asleep on this bright morning, there are so many things you can do. Build up the lazy base"
"Elder. Irving.. I'm at work. I didn't fall asleep.
Klea was awakened by a loud noise, she looked back and forth looking for the source of the sound, and she turned in front of her by rubbing her eyes. He was surprised that a slightly shorter human was next to the elder Irving.
"Human....!! Why are there humans here.....elder Irving what are you doing?"
Klea fell back in her chair as she was shocked by the appearance of a human without any protection. And he tried to get up after falling.
"What are you doing here, what are your plans here, say"
"Say less, klea, she is our guest. And what are you planning to sleep at the elder's table?"
Klea was stunned by the cynical gaze and scathing comments of Elder Irving at her. he looked around and understood the danger code from the elder Irving.
